| System updates: apt-get or aptitude |

LL system update script is using apt-get:
/usr/scripts/updates
Code: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade
As I was trying out Debian Jessie lately I noticed that aptitude seems to be considered a better choice to do system updates than apt-get because it offers smarter handling of dependencies and has some other benefits. The equivalent command would be:
Code: sudo aptitude update && sudo aptitude safe-upgrade
I have done a test run of both commands (actual updates were aborted) and the output is quite different:
apt-get:

aptitude:

I'm wondering what experts think about all this.

| [SOLVED] UEFI enabled LL2.4/win8.1 dual-boot not booting to LL... |

The UEFI enabled dual-boot has been working very well. Each OS is symlinked to a second drive where my data files are stored.
Following boot-up to the grub screen, and choosing the LL option, LL has at the progress bar screen.
Pressing F4 shows apparently shows at which stage the boot-up is stuck at. The last two lines read as follows:
Starting Enable remaining boot-time encrypted block devices
Stopping Read required files in advance
The odd thing is, if I turn off secure boot and fast boot, it will boot into LL. I would like to get UEFI back as it makes a significant
difference to both speed and the quality of the graphics (goldfinger, unfortunately, I hadn't got to cloning my EFI partition yet!)
I wondered if someone could help me to get this fixed from the live environment with an LL.iso DVD - I'm clueless in this department...
Many thanks
Mike

Using an Acer 5250-BZ467.
When I first joined the forums I had trouble reading the menu at the "sign in" area. It appears almost black on black. If it had my first time joining a forum I might have been confused (okay, I'm confused anyway) but you get the point.
Anyway to change that so it's more visible?

| Linuxlite 2.4 install - can't set UK keyboard as default |

Hi All
I have recently installed Linuxlite 2.4 32 bit ISO on my Fujitsu Seimens Amilo Pro V3515.
At the install stage English UK was selected as language and keyboard layout. For some reason the laptop defaults to US layout when pc boots up to home page. I have tried to change the settings but nothing seems to work.
Does anyone know how to solve this please ?

Hello,
I am running this via iso image, version 2.4. It is on an old XP machine I am trying to bring back to life for browsing use only by the elderly to go in a computer lab. So far this seems really good. Is there a way to get it to run off the hard drive in case the disc gets removed?
Thank you...

In the software repository there is the old version of clamav 98.6 which I have downloaded and it works fine. Problem is, there is a new and updated version that is not added to all the Linux distros and so we have to wait till it gets added to software manager. Will that be done in Lite? Seems I cannot download and install unless I manually rebuild it and I am not that experienced nor knowledgeable
to be able to do that. Comodo does not work for me in Lite. Cannot fix the file drive filter even after all the on line suggestions to try which means I cannot scan individual files. Thanks to anyone who might have some answers.
