Wow! I read both articles, and I tested out (on my LL 3.8 and 4.0 machines) the Perl script given in the second link. It works for both!! This is the output I got:
Tue Jan 19 03:14:01 2038
Tue Jan 19 03:14:02 2038
Tue Jan 19 03:14:03 2038
Tue Jan 19 03:14:04 2038
Tue Jan 19 03:14:05 2038
Tue Jan 19 03:14:06 2038
Tue Jan 19 03:14:07 2038
Tue Jan 19 03:14:08 2038
Tue Jan 19 03:14:09 2038
Tue Jan 19 03:14:10 2038
So if I understood everything correctly, the output indicates that Linux Lite will be resistant to the 2038 problem! Well done, Jerry. You are truly ahead of your time.
