Hi,
I am going to fresh install LL.4 with full disc encryption, single boot, and I would like to confirm that I can have different passwords for
1: login FDE decrypt
2: day-to-day user/admin, authentication of updates, unlocking email client etc.
The LL manual seems to say yes, 2 separate passwords, but I'd like to be sure.
More important, the procedure for Resetting your Password, does that also apply to a FDE password?
Thanks.

| UEFI downloads for next LTS Linux-Lite |

Hi, developers of the one and only, best, Linux there is!
I have tried several different linux distros and like Linux-Lite the best, even over Ubuntu, one of the supposedly most popular distros! I recently went to download Ubuntu and had to get Gdebi to be able to download Google Chrome and Minecraft easily without any hassles. I had to get VLC media player, Gimp, and Gparted. You guys have it all there ready and easy to use!
Anyway, to my question here. I have an Acer Chromebook 15 CB5-571 that I redid the bios firmware so that I could clean install linux to it. BUT, it will only boot into a linux distro that supports UEFI. Ubuntu does, and you guys have one for Linux-Lite 4.2 which I have and have upgraded to 4.8, and everything runs nicely. I know that the new LTS is coming in a few months and have read in the forums here that you won't make any more with the UEFI boot. I am asking to not forget us who need that UEFI boot. PLEASE, will you make the next Linux-Lite LTS with a UEFI boot? I don't know if I can stand to have to go to Ubuntu just to run linux on my Chromebook.
Thanks,
Karen A.

New LL user just starting my journey in the Linux world.
I've been using computers since the Apple 2E and BBC at school, even had a MicroBee at home when I was a kid.
Thing is I've never really looked into how computers work or how they do what they do, more been a user of software and that's about it. I was more interested in mechanical things (bikes, cars, and trucks mostly) and making them go fast.
Fast forward to recently and I've fallen into a job at work that in some parts means I deal with computers on a deeper level using Win and Linux mostly so I've taken the step of starting to learn how things work and how to make them work. I'm certaly a noob of noobs in this regard but I'm learning everyday.
Up until about 4 months ago I didn't really know what Linux was, now I have 2 distros working, one LL 3.X on a 15yo Toshiba laptop (512Mb, 40Gb, 32bit) and another dual booting Win10/LM19.3 on a recent HP all in one desktop.
Thanks for letting me in and maybe one day I'll be able to give something back (might be along while tho ;-) )

| No WiFi - LL 4.2 UEFI |

I have a bit of a problem with LL 4.2 UEFI not seeing my WiFi which means I can not get onto the www or any other network.
Info/outputs are at the very bottom of this post.
Using the very good info on this thread I have installed LL4.2UEFI on an external HDD that I recycled from an older laptop and so far it seams to be running spotty dog apart from the network issue I'm having. I guess you could say that I am dual booting Win10/LL4.2UEFI
I've tried LL4.8 in BIOS as this laptop can do legacy mode but still the same problem exists.
Problem also exists when using both versions of LL via live USB
I haven't tried an earlier version of LL yet but that is on the cards if I can't find a solution.
I do have an earlier version (3.X IIRC) of LL running on a 15 yo laptop and this doesn't have the problem so I copied all the network info over into this laptop with no joy.
To me it looks like LL on this laptop is not picking up the network card/adaptor so maybe drivers are missing however with no WiFi to search for what is needed I am not sure of the next step to take so I can resolve.
I'm currently search forums (mostly Ubuntu related forums so far) etc for info that may lead me in the right direction and wondered if anyone here might be able to help point me in the right direction.

Bonjour à tous,
Après un tour de table des distributions linux, j'ai installé LL 4.8 sur un Toshiba T130-13C (passage en SSD 128Go). Tout est OK (imprimante DW2835 de base, scanner V39 après chargement et script epson) avec des performances honorables:
systemd-analyze time
Startup finished in 6.555s (kernel) + 7.394s (userspace) = 13.950s
graphical.target reached after 7.311s in userspace
Quelques reprises en français avec l'éditeur de menus. Quid à la prochaine mise à jour?
Longue vie à LL.
jpn
