It seems to be working now, so I might not need to try that. Last night, I used the “Fix MergeList problems” option in the maintenance tab of software sources and that seems to have fixed the issue.

Right now it seems to be working fine, so I’ll try that later if I have issues again. Last night, I used the “Fix MergeList problems” option in the maintenance tab of software sources and that seems to have fixed it.

I just saw your edit, the closest to “remove duplicate dependencies” is “remove duplicate entries”, is that it?
The closest thing I see to “clear packages” is “remove foreign packages”, is that it? For the mirror, am I supposed to change the Linux Mint mirror or the Ubuntu mirror? It’s telling me to change the Linux Mint mirror but you mentioned “Jammy”, so which one am I supposed to change?
Ok thanks.
It’s been a while since I’ve played either Runescape or OSRS and my accounts were never upgraded to Jagex accounts, if I upgrade one of them to a Jagex account, is it possible to link my other account to that same Jagex account?
I didn’t see anyone else mention this but, as someone who uses Linux Mint, if you are going to install software through the Software Manager, read the reviews for the app you want before downloading it. Linux Mint’s Software Manager is full of apps that are so outdated that some of them aren’t even compatible with the current version of Linux Mint. There are other issues as well, like how there are at least 20 different versions of Wine and most of them are very old versions. I’d understand if they want to keep legacy apps for the older, still supported, versions of Linux Mint but it can be confusing to use sometimes.
The main reason I’m currently staying with Linux Mint is because it’s what I have installed and it works for me. I may switch to a different distro in the future but right now, I have no reason to. I’d also have concerns about software availability, which from what I’ve seen, Debian (and I think Arch to some extent) currently has the most software available.
Also, Xfce is currently in the process of adding support for Wayland. They have stated in their roadmap that they want full support for Wayland in version 4.20 and they are working on porting everything and making sure that everything works. You can read about their current progress here: https://wiki.xfce.org/releng/wayland_roadmap
I’m not familiar with Fedora, as I’ve only ever used Debian and Debian derivatives. I also can’t seem to find any information on the system requirements for the LXQt spin of Fedora. I may still check it out in the future because I don’t know if I will always stick with the Xfce edition of Linux Mint for my main computer, but right now I’m just looking for a Linux distro for my old computer and Q4OS seems to be fine.
I’ve been looking into lightweight Linux distros on and off for a while now, so I have heard of LXQt. The only problem is that I have no experience with installing a desktop environment, so if there is a distro that can use it and it would use less ram than the 32-bit version of Q4OS (which is already less than 256 MB), I’d want a distro that has it preinstalled.
It would be easy if there was a list/database that contained a sort-able list of how much ram every distro used. But I’ve never found one, the closest was a list of lightweight distros on Wikipedia but that list is very outdated and is also missing a lot of distros.
Did you not read the part of my post where I mentioned that I was planning on running this on an old computer that only has 1 GB of ram?
On their website, it states that the minimum requirements for the OS are 256 MB, that’s what I was going off of. I even mentioned in my post that even if it was installable on a computer with 256 MB of ram that it would be pretty much useless.
Also, I just tested the 32-bit version and, like what another user stated, it does use less than 256 MB of ram, which means that their claim is right.
I was actually testing the trinity 64-bit version because it was the only version that had a live cd. I actually just downloaded the 32-bit version and I’m about to try it out.
RIght, I forgot that 64-bit binaries use more ram. And seeing that the 64-bit version does work fine with 1 GB of ram, in the off chance that there is something that should work but requires a 64-bit OS, I would still have the option to use the 64-bit version.
I might try that later, I have tried another emulator that was able to run the game I had issues with.
Ok, I’m actually in the process of filling out the bug report right now.
Ok but is there anything I can do to get simple64’s flatpak working or should I just move onto trying another N64 emulator?
I’m not sure how to do that because I’ve never had this kind of an issue with flatpaks before. What am I supposed to do?
I might try that later if the issue comes back up. Last night, I used the “Fix MergeList problems” option in the maintenance tab of software sources and that seems to have fixed it. I did at the time think it was an issue with my HDD but disks wont let me check the filesystem because it can’t unmount a filesystem that is in use.
