Hello

I just got a Chromebook but I can't install LibreOffice

It seems I installed Linux but I can't complete the process since I don't have the required activation command from the start...

Can someone help me?

Thank you!

Hello,

1 - Go to Advanced Settings / Developers and click on "Enable Linux". Wait as it downloads and installs Debian, which takes a while.

2 - Once it's done, search for the Linux terminal in the Chrome OS launchers and open it.

Then enter the following command: sudo apt install libreoffice libreoffice-gtk3 libreoffice-l10n-fr and press Enter.

Wait as the download and installation take some time. Once the terminal is ready, the installation is complete, and you should find the launchers for the various LibreOffice apps in the Linux sub-menu of Chrome OS.

Optional: you can clean the download cache of Linux to free up disk space since it is counted on a Chromebook with the commands:

sudo apt autoremove

sudo apt clean

I anticipate now:

If you want to use a printer from a Linux application, you need to install the cups package. Without this package, you won't be able to print.

Hello,

Thank you for your response... Unfortunately, I did start the process, but from the beginning, I don't have the link: activated

All I can do is manage shared folders.....

What can I do?

Click on the clock and then the gear icon to access the settings, scroll down to the advanced settings line and click on it, then click on developers and you will get this screen:

Hello, I finally decided to return the computer because it’s too complicated. Thank you anyway.
