It seems if one does nothing, fstrim will run on a weekly basis.  And the Help Manual appears to instruct us to have it run at startup instead, while creating a log file listing what was trimmed for each partition.

Correct :)

I did look at this once, but it's very complex and I'm somewhat reluctant to write any software that configures peoples storage devices. Data loss is somewhere I'd like to stay well away from.

I think some of this is being done automatically.  Recently I installed an SSD into my mother's laptop.  When I went to follow the "Enabling TRIM for your SSD" part of the Help Manual, it seemed like some gremlins beat me to it.  The noatime part was already done.  And if I recall correctly, I only had to edit the /etc/rc.local file and move the cron.weekly job.  The edited rc.local file covered every partition I had set for the drive, so this seems like something that Lite Tweaks could do for a drive running only Linux Lite, but it could become dicey for drives with a multi-boot setup.  But then, what do I know?

For the record, I'm still learning.  It seems if one does nothing, fstrim will run on a weekly basis.  And the Help Manual appears to instruct us to have it run at startup instead, while creating a log file listing what was trimmed for each partition.

Hi

I installed LL 3.0 64 on my netbook and have found on Help Guide for a step-by-step to how enable daily TRIM for SSD drives, but I'm not secure enough to do this myself.

If the "Lite Tweaks" could add this functionality, would be great!

Thank you.
 My comment that the update is enabled in Linux Mint is outdated, and no longer true.
I use this to enable updating inxi:
 
Code: [Select]
sudo sed -i 's/^B_ALLOW_UPDATE=false/B_ALLOW_UPDATE=true/' /etc/inxi.conf (which conforms to the link you posted)

My original suggestion that it should be enabled by default still applies.

Hi,

Don't think it's a real error, maybe a wording issue.??
If you select "Residual Config Files",
and you haven't noticed there is "none" to be cleaned.. Duh  ???

You get this...


I guess you can't clean something that's not there.!!
