| Installing Linux Lite 32-bit on EEE 900 netbook |

As the title implies, I am trying to get linux lite to install on my EEE 900. I am booting from a flash drive, and when I get to the boot screen if I choose to start linux lite, it will freeze immediately. Memtest86+ will run but anything else freezes.
This computer has an Intel Celeron 900 mhz processor and 2 gb of ram. I am currently running Ubuntu 14.04.5 and it works well, but a little slow.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

| Ways to help promote Lite? |

I know this subject has been discussed before. I've posted multiple times about how completely impressed with Lite I am. I'd like to see some additional ways someone like me can promote this really great distro. Here is my situation.
I live in what most of you would call an extremely rural area of southern Illinois. The County I live in has a population of 16,233 and the town has a population of 8,631. Not only that, but all of the surrounding Counties are very similar in demographics. I am disabled/retired and I no longer am active in any clubs or organizations.
So with that in mind, what are ways I can best help promote Lite? I truly believe I've found a Linux distro I can depend on for a long time to come. I'd like to do what I can to help ensure the longevity of the Lite project. Any ideas?

I was really excited to see the iconic film, 2001 - A Space Odyssey, from my youth listed under get_iplayer. This was the output from terminal confirming its listing:

Does anyone know of an alternative way (and the steps involved) to download this get_iplayer listed programme in LL? I'd really love to see this film again.
Many thanks in advance, as ever, for an help with this ...

| How to select level of updates |

I've been searching for some way to select the level of updates that are installed. I really hate to bring Linux Mint into the discussion again, but unfortunately that's what I had been using for a long while before Lite. With Mint you could easily select from level 1 to level 5 updates and also decide whether to display the updates you didn't want to install.
In Synaptic, under Settings > Repositories, I found the Updates screen with three options. I noticed the third option states, "Unsupported Updates". Should that box be checked, or should I uncheck it to insure I don't accidentally bork my install. Running Mint I only installed Levels 1, 2, and 3.
