Hi Folks

I am a big enthusiast for Linux Lite, it's always reliable and an excellent Distro.
However, today this strange error occurred when I tried to update;

I have a DELL Inspiron laptop it's inbuilt keyboard gets disconnected or stops responding randomly I don't know, but still my touchpad works and I always have to logout and sign in again to make the keyboard again working.

Instalé Linux Lite hoy y cuando minimizaba una ventana funcionaba bien, luego podía volver a hacer clic en el icono y lo volvía a abrir, pero ahora no sé que toqué y cuando minimizo algo y lo vuelvo a abrir me abre otra ventana nueva y no puedo ver lo que he minimizado, qué hago?

HELLO,
I am having an issue at the moment with an older laptop of mine. It is an ASUS x206HA with Intel Atom processor. On it i had Linux mint and decided to switch to Linux Lite. I inserted the USB ran the setup, everything seemed well and then the machine restatrts after it finished the install.
On the screen was something like remove installation USB and press enter. I did and from then the laptop does not boot. It also does not show the ASUS logo anymore, and i can't install other Linux or Windows. I create the bootable USB and when i want to move further with the install the screen stays black. Anything i do the screen is black. I tried to reset the BIOS, remove battery and connect an external monitor. Nothing, only black screen.
I can't find an answer anywhere and hope to find it here. Thank you all!   Intel Atom® x5-Z8350 Intel Atom® x5-Z

I see Version 5.4 is no longer supported post April 2025.

Is it still safe security wise to use version 5.4 ?

How do versions 6.4 and 7.4 differ from version 5.4 ?

It looks like the website no longer has a shop that sells the USB boot drives for later versions ?
So a download from the website is the only option to get a later version ?

Hello...

I have a Surface Go tablet onto which I installed Linux Lite v. 7.6.  The issue is as follows; When attempting to use Onboard onscreen keyboard it simply vanishes off the screen the instant I tap it.  I wish to use this device while mobile and do not want to attach a full keyboard every time I need to type something.  Has anyone encountered this situation before?  Any suggestions would be helpful. 

Thanks>
