Linux Lite Forums

Hi all,

I like to try Linux Lite on my daughter's rather old laptop (+/- 5 years old). But i came across some information about Linux Lite. As i'm well familiar with Ubuntu, i used Ubuntu from 7.04 till 10.04.3 and ditched it in favor of Mint due to the (IMO) horrible Unity desktop, i also know that Ubuntu, unlike Mint, doesn't come with full multimedia support.

So, to avoid any disappointments, m question is: does Linux Lite OS come with multimedia fully installed or not? Like to see someone here to can enlighten me about this.
Many thanks!

Multimedia support is excellent in Linux Lite. To complete the process, install Restricted Extras via Lite Software. Seeing how familiar you are with linux, you can view our full package list here - http://distrowatch.com/table.php?distrib....6#pkglist Of course you can always try it live, without having to install.

Basically following up the same way as it is for Ubuntu to complete multimedia?

Not really, we already include more than what ubuntu does out of the box.
