1) Needs to have a normal Grub2 not a beta ver
2) Needs to have a normal Sylpheed on the packages not a beta ver
3) Needs to have a fast shutdown,avoiding the 30sec window and the sleep/restart/shutdown window

The idea here is to get laptops out to people at a reasonable price with Linux Lite preinstalled and configured.

What people will get:

A low to high end range refurbished laptop
Linux Lite preinstalled and set up with your user details (submitted via an order form)
All updates and drivers installed - nothing to set up, unbox it, start using it straight away
90 day warranty
There will be 3 models available: low end, mid range, high end

Typical specifications start at:

Model A: (low end)
Processor    Intel Core2 Duo @ 2.0GHz
Memory    2GB Ram
Hard Drive    80GB 5400rpm SATA
Optical Drive    Slimline DVD-RW
Wireless    802.11 A/B/G
Screen Size    14.1" LCD
Screen Resolution    1440 x 900

and go to:

Model C: (high end)
Processor    Intel Quad Core 2.5GHz
Memory    8GB Ram
Hard Drive    500GB SATA
Optical Drive    Slimline DVD-RW
Wireless    802.11 A/B/G
Screen Size    15.6" LCD
Screen Resolution    1600 x 900

This is both a way to support the project whilst helping the environment.

Assuming you wanted one of these, what would you expect to pay for either Model A & Model C?

Dear All
Kindly tell me how to install Kali Linux Tools in Linux Lite
I tried to add the repo but could not succeed

I am trying to learn and practice system audit
I thought it would make sense to have a proper desktop linux and then install the audit tools which I use very rarely

In Fedora I used to install security lab items in a single command
Can I have such installation mechanism in Linux Lite

Yours

ok.. while trying to install Chrome.. I did my system updates and now Im getting the message

E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem.
E: _cache->open() failed, please report.

And not sure where to go from here.. I am a new user of LL.. and quite lost.

Hi

I've spent many weeks installing and customising a LL 1.0.8 x32 bit system along with a whole range of apps including Wine and VBox. This was on an ASUS box:

Asus A88XM-Plus AMD Socket FM2+ Motherboard
AMD A4 5300 3.4GHz Socket FM2 Dual Core
    Integrated Radeon HD 7480D Graphics
G.Skill RipjawsX 8GB DDR3 2133MHz Dual Channel
Western Digital Black 1TB SATA III 3.5" Hard Drive
XFX Pro 550W Power Supply Unit
Generic 22x DVD+/-RW Drive
Samsung 19" LED screen Model S19A450BR  LS19A450BRT

I've now decided to move the whole system to an older EPOX box:

Epox Ep-9npa+ Ultra
AMD Athlon 64 3000+ 939 pin / 1800MHz 512KB L2 Cache 1600MHz Hyper Transport Link
256MB Leadtek PX6200TC-TDH PCI-E - NVIDIA GeForce 6200 Turbocache
Corsair TwinX XMS3200 3GB  DDR400 / CAS : 2-3-3-6*
Western Digital Black 1TB SATA III 3.5" Hard Drive
525W Hiper HPU4S525 PCI-Ex
Sony DW-Q28A OEM
Floppy Disk Drive


On ASUS the Secure Boot (UEFI) Bios was removed and set to OtherOS before installing LL 1.0.8 x32 bit
Also whilst the graphics driver was installed for the HD 7480D the system profile said it was not active.

I cloned the ASUS HD to an identical HD and once the Swap partition was formated it worked OK in the ASUS.

On inserting it into the EPOX the PC LinuxOS logo appeared and then it went into CLI mode asking for user ID and password. On entering these it said:

--------------------
Welcome to Linux Lite 1.0.8 (GNU/Linux 3.8.0-34-generic i686)

Your current Hardware Enablement Stack (HWE) is no longer supported
since 2014-08-07..................

Upgrade command ..................
----------------------------
(see attachment for screen shot)

The Epox does run a live CD of LL 1.0.8 x32 bit

Here's a System Report on the EPOX PC booting with the Live CD

(or see attached for pdf)

Suggestions please, hopefully not re-installing everything 

FURTHER INFO

I looked at xorg.config and it's very basic and no driver info but exactly as the working Asus system:

Searching for Linux Lite 2.2 videos on You Tube found this channel https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC2Mp_i7...sL3T-IBwNQ with the Linux Lite 2.2 Beta 1 Install Video  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HSW3VAF7YP8 The installer was "Jerry." Is this the "official" Linux Lite You Tube Channel?

If it is I hope it will soon have an RSS feed so I can keep up with new videos. (I don't have a Google account due to privacy concerns so I can't subscribe.)

Hello,

I caught a Channel 5 news story earlier, it took me a while to locate anything about it online when I returned home -
http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-30166477

The pretence of the policy is it's for terrorist apprehension, and CEOPS to use.
However on the channel 5 interview with Theresa May, she revealed the law will be good because it will

Quote:"allow detection of those downloading copyright infringing materials, without a warrant, being needed and the police will be able to force internet and phone providors, at will , on demand without any reason needing to be given, to immediately supply the details of any user".

Using LL Beta 2.2 and Whisker Menu. Right click the menu icon and select "Properties", go to "Behaviour" tab. There is a check box "Display recently used by default". This seems to have noi effect. I leave it unchecked but the "Recently Used" menu category still appears. Any idea how I can get rid of it? Thanks.
