im having a few problems with internet and trying to do anything in the terminal.... something along the lines of cannot connect to repository?

 

[Smoker1]

How is RetroArch on this? Better Cores and Compatibility?

 

[evil_santa]

At the moment none at all. The developers build Lakka first so that all features like in L4T-UBUNTU are available (Bluetooth, docked mode, reboot to payload etc.) When this is completed we will see.

had the same issue
System settings < Software & Updates < Check all boxes under "Downloadable from the Internet"

Edit: So that only seemed to fix a few packages. Still having lots of trouble fetching updates and installers from the command line or package installer

Run

sudo sed -E -i 's/turul.canonical/ports.ubuntu/g' /etc/apt/sources.list
sudo apt update

can someone explain to me how the profiles work? Say I'm on default and in handheld mode... does it actually allow OC GPU up to 768? If yes, isn't that sort of harmful for the switch considering sys clk only let's you oc the gpu to 460 when in handheld mode?

You can manually set the max GPU freq, I don’t remember how exactly myself though.

Would editing /etc/nvpmodel.conf work?

 

[ZachyCatGames]

I guess you can try. Last time I touched any of this was before these performance profiles were a thing heh
