Hello
It seems possible to fix "synaptic" by only "updating"?I

It was my way . I just see your post.

I profite to to send HERE other observations about V8.6.1 without begining
another thread. ..I am desolated

KNOPPIX_v8.6.1 "FEEDBACK "
These observations are relative to my OLD laptop

Hi

1-Boots Without the Cursor... Not very important
But with a cursor it may be useful to go backstep
without deleting characters!

2- Does not generally accept directly my external
screen monitor.
Cheatcodes are necessary and useful (their role!)
Not very important.

3- At "shutdown" the screen monitor switch "off" but not the
laptop for it's own. Manual intervention is necessary

4- Knonqueror and Chromium do not work in v8.6.1 (for me).
BUT in v8.6.0:
Konqueror worked...Not Firefox nor Chromium.

5- With Firefox (in V8.6.1) it is sometimes very
difficult to register or open files on some sites!

6- The defaults of LibreOffice has a too wide screen monitor

7- To get Synaptic it is necessary to update fist.

8- The same for gedebi...a bit difficult to get.

9- To get printers installation via Firefox it is
necessary to disable "noscript"

10- Thunderbird does not accept some IMAP_mail_Box

11- No means for VIRTUALIZATION ??

12- It is necessary to disable much options of the
screensaver for working comfortably in much
versions of KNOPPIX

13- How to make "Okular" the default option ?

14- It may be useful to get te language layout
independently "online"...without "ReBooting"
Different users may need different languages
after the boot.
Some earlier versins of KNOPPIX offered this option
