Yet another version of RaspEX Kodi 64-bit :: Now based on Debian 11 stable with the LXQt Desktop and Kodi 19.1 “Matrix” stable – Build 210904

"If I knew that will happen, I would have kept my old system", is the only thing we could think after that, obviously. It happens with all OS (Windows, MacOS and Linux), and more often, in those with short development cycles. That is, of course, instability. If an OS...
So, you're new to GNU/Linux and you have been asked by someone to try to solve something by typing a command. First of all, WELCOME, second, should you just do it?

Command lines with options and arguments are way more powerful than GUI tools, and it's very easy to not understand what you are doing. There are two main reasons you should always CHECK the command...
