I've successfully installed Linux Lite 32bit in an old HP laptop (pentium IV, 685MB ram). I'm very impressed: this distro worked out of the box without hiccups, recognized all the hardware, is good looking and amazing fast. I will keep Linux Lite in this laptop as the only OS.
I have installed previously here Peppermint 3 (also very fast) and Linux Mint 13 Xfce (fast, but less than Linux Lite).
Linux Lite 2.4 is LTS and will be supported until 2019, that is more than the (probable) lifespan of my laptop...

Thanks to the developers, nice work!

LL system update script is using apt-get:

/usr/scripts/updates

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

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?

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 ?

Hi all. Want to dual boot Linux Lite with Windows Vista on an HP Pavilion DV6. Got the BIOS changed to boot from DVD/CD and that part went fine. However when it came to installing it on the drive there was no option for install Linux Lite next to Windows. It was erase Windows completely (which I would like but it isn't my PC lol) or the do something else option basically and I don't know how to partition a drive. I am using a fresh download of Linux Lite 2.4 32 bit. Thanks ahead of time.

Hi all. Have a little problem removing an entry I created in LL 2.2 I have wine installed and went ahead and installed Photoshop CS6 for work.  I removed the icon on the desktop and created a Photoshop entry in the Main Menu / Graphics. It keeps saying child process error. I tried to remove it the entry I created but cannot. So I uninstalled Photoshop using Wine, everything is now gone with Photoshop but the entry I created is still there and I do not know how to remove it. Any help would be appreciated


Thank you

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...

but it is not in autostart applications and I'm not using saved sessions.
Where is it being started from?

I'm new using linux and chose linux lite for my old HP mini 110-1049TU.
Installation went great and I'm expecting using linux lite out of the box but I'm stuck because network adapter (cable and wireless) is not working.
I've search forums but nothing worked so far.
