Can't replicate the 64bit requiring user & pass on live boot, I used imagewriter to burn the iso to usb, looks like unetbootin is a good option too. Can confirm VirtualBox kernel message.

Got prompted on both 32 and 64, both copied to usb via yumi, on windows.. I can try tomorrow on single usb with win32diskimage on windows :)

One possible bug, can anyone else replicate this?

- Install Steam and Dropbox from Lite Software
- After installation, start both apps, network tray icon disappears

Must be done on real hardware as Steam doesn't start in VirtualBox. Thanks :)

So far I like how it's set up...  Jerry

I would like to suggest Guake as a drop down terminal, kinda confused that you never considered to have this type already built in. Unless it would make the ISO too over sized.

I been using it from 2.4 and never had any issues, also I have it automatically start with LL. Press F12 and bang it drops down and F12 throws it back up. It also keeps what has been written there.

I'm still testing it on my thumb drive or should I install it? If so would a dual boot be ok? I don't have a spare computer to try it.

Just wanted to mention that a drop down terminal seems to be the staple with most Linux users. Also it would take most of the scary aspect of using one away and give it a built in feel.

Anyone else use a drop down terminal?

A drop down terminal is not something our target audience, Windows users, would expect to see. I certainly appreciate all suggestions, but they must focus purely on Windows people. Linux users familiar with the command line, and then a drop down terminal can easily set this up. Cheers :)

Problems updating LL 3.0 64 bit beta this morning.

It was our old friend google-chrome causing the update errors.

Problems have also been reported on google-chrome with Ubuntu 16.04.

Chromium and Firefox working fine on 64 bit.

Think I will give Google chrome a wide berth for the time being.

Otherwise LL 3.0 beta running great.

Jocklad.

Steam installed ok but with a warning that the package was out of date.
The tray icon did disappear for a few seconds but came back.
Hope this helps.

Dropbox installed ok but cannot re-open it.
No response from desktop icon

I have an Acer/nVidia/AMD computer, few years old. Came with Windows 7 preinstalled. When Windows 10 first came out the pop up message said it couldn't be updated to 10 - no drivers. Eventually I was able to put 10 on it, but the graphics weren't the best. As usual Microsoft installed 'a driver', not necessarily the correct driver. Usually when I install a Linux OS on this computer I have to immediately go to the drivers section & install the proprietary nVidia driver, not the nouveau one. I installed Linux Lite 3.0 and after the install had to do. . . nothing. I went over to the install drivers & it's telling me, nope. Don't have to do a thing. I'm installing LL 3.0 on a few different computers to try it out. Here's something everyone will enjoy. To put LL 3.0 on this computer I popped in the GParted disk to wipe Windows 10 off the computer. Then installed LL. I have a system image of Windows 10 that I could reinstall. . . maybe.

Try Install Updates first, then Install Drivers.

I did numerous 32bit beta installs in VB before releasing the public beta. Didn't experience this. Thanks :)

The default borderless windows look fine against the default colourful background. But when dialogs are open on top of white-background documents, or even other dialog boxes, the result is visually confusing. A border, even just a single pixel, is necessary. And don't make the border lines almost invisible by making them a very light colour. Tabs within dialogs have this problem. Open File Manager Preferences, for example. It's not clear visually which of the tabs (Display, Side Pane, Behavior, Advanced) is actually selected! On the Behavior tab, the non-selected radio buttons are nearly invisible. Fortunately, selecting the label selects the button, too. But the text just floating in space like that doesn't even look like a control.

GUI designers need to remember that their users are not all 25-year-olds with perfect vision.

I have not yet tried the alternative Appearance settings, which could be quite time-consuming. How the two or three blocks of colour preceding the Style name relate to the Desktop appearance is not clear to me. Are washed-out blues and greys the only choices? It might be simpler to provide some way to directly select border thickness/colour, header size/colour, etc.

Despite the preceding gripes, Linux Lite 3.0 looks like a nice upgrade from v2.8. There's a good selection of up-to-date applications. I have installed the beta on a VM to try it out.
