Introducing the Linux Lite Control Center.



This is the culmination of months of work by a number of Linux Lite developers both inside and outside the project.
Before I begin, I'd like to personally thank the following people for their fantastic efforts in bringing this original concept to a finished state:

John 'Shaggytwodope' Jenkins - original GUI design and coding
Brian 'DarthLukan' Tomlinson - Python Developer extraordinaire
Milos 'Misko_2083' Pavlovic - Linux Lite Developer
Jerry Bezencon - Linux Lite Developer
Josh Erickson - Developer

Each of these people played a crucial role in the Control Centers development. It could not progress the way it did without any of them, so thank you :)

The original idea was to have one central place where people could configure just about anything on Linux Lite. The Linux Lite equivalent of the Windows Control Panel if you like, but better ;) We want people to rely on one area in the OS where they could find things. The Lite Control Center aims to fulfill that.

Features

System Information:

On the main tab, we have basic system information, OS, cpu, ram, kernel, graphics and soundcard information (we have yet to test multiple sound or video card configurations)

We also include a Screenshot button. This will take a picture of the Lite Control Center System Information tab (only), upload it to imgur.com for pasting of the url into the Forums. When you need support, we have a snaphot of your systems key hardware configuration quickly and easily.



Desktop:

Anything to do with configuring your Desktop should be here. We've also added the ability to add and remove Computer, Home, Network and Trash icons to the Desktop.



Software:

A one-stop-shop for all your software management needs.



Hardware:

A one-stop-shop for all your hardware configuration needs.



Network:

Network configuration and management.



System:

Configuration of everything system related on default Linux Lite.



The Lite Control Center is for Linux Lite 2.4+ only and we hope to have it ready for Linux Lite 2.6. It is not tested, nor will it be supported on anything lower than Linux Lite 2.4

The Lite Control Center does not add program icons to the Lite Control Center as you install applications. The only buttons displayed are the ones we provide on a vanilla Linux Lite install.

Once installed, you can find Lite Control Center in Menu, Settings, Lite Control Center.



We'd like as many people as possible to install and test this with us. To install the Lite Control Center:

Code: [Select]
sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install lite-controlcenter
This software should be considered beta quality and although it has gone through numerous tests, we need to widen our test field to ensure the best possible quality at release time.

Of course we welcome your feedback and any features you'd like added :)

From the entire development team, thank you :)
