Saying hello. Been using 2.8 for a little bit on an old netbook for something to do for a while and Just installed 3.0 last night and hit first snag. Figured I'd sign up and ask.... But this is just to say hi.

Will be installing LL 3 to a Samsung 850 evo ssd. Do I still need to follow the enabling trim guide in the help manual? Or will LL 3 setup it automaticly?

Hi All!

I'm new to this Distro, but have used Ubuntu 11.10 on my 12 year old HP Pavilion ZE4900.  Well it didn't run well because an Intel Celeron 1300MHZ processor and 512mb of RAM.  I'm really hoping the Distro will meet my needs for now till I get another newer laptop with better hardware.  I look forward continuing to learn Linux under this Distro.

.... then note that this worked perfectly (with nano) right after a LL 3.0 install onto a disk that only had Windows 7 beforehand:

I'll say right off that my 2.8..upgraded from 2.6....from 2.4...was running fine. I thought, what the heck, i'll wipe the SSD and try the brand new shiny 3.0. Big mistake...the install worked but the startup on this version is 30 seconds. My 2.4/2.6/2.8 version was 5 to 6 seconds.

getting to the desktop and functionality seems the same but man is it slow to get there...can someone shed some light on why its so slow? Are there any tweaks that can get this thing up and moving like before?

thanks

To celebrate the release of Linux Lite 3.0, I'm running a competition to see who can guess the closest to the actual figure, the number lines of code the Linux Lite devs have produced since the beginning of the project.

The winner will be announced here and on Social Media - 1st July, 2016.

Entry is very simple. Simply register on the Forums and put your guess into your post.
Linux Lite Devs cannot enter (for obvious reasons)

I'm going to run a poll too just for fun, to see if people can guess the range.

The winner will get the following sent to them anywhere in the world:

- 1 each of Linux Lite 3.0 DVD's in 32bit and 64bit, hand signed by me.
- 1 each of Linux Lite 3.0 USB's in 32bit and 64bit.
- 2 of each of all the stickers in our range.













You can view these prizes here - https://www.linuxliteos.com/shop.html

Good luck and I hope you have fun with this!

This might be of concern. Just thought I would post it.

I have had a number of emails to me explaining that some folks are being asked for login credentials when booting the live image of Linux Lite 3.0

I am going to spend the day exploring this issue and will edit and update this post with my findings.

In the meantime, I have updated the Linux Lite 3.0 Release Announcement with the appropriate image writing software recommendations. These will also appear on the main Linux Lite 3.0 website. The Help Manual already has these suggestions listed.

Hi,

Just instaled LL 3.0, looking sharp but stuill 1 or 2 things i dislike.

Okay, In the first menu during installation i changed the language to my native language, namely Dutch (Nederlands). So everything went in Dutch and everything went smoothly. After installation the whole LL was in English which i still find really strange cause LL is the only distro which doesn't select and install the language chosen in the first step of the installation. All other *buntu-based distro's select AND install the language chosen in the first step of installation. No problem, this was fixed as well. After a reboot a menu pops up asking me if i want to keep the old (English) names for my home folders or do i want to keep the new (Dutch) names for the folders  in my home folder. Ofcourse i chose the last option.

Surprisingly i noticed that, beside the folder Bureaublad (Dutch for desktop) also a folder called Desktop is still present while all the other folders were correctly renamed to Dutch.

How do i get rid of that Desktop folder? That's the question here.
The person who provides the correct answer which solves my problem wins a 2-week cruise in the Caribbean. Tickets made available by Jerry.....











.....(just kidding  ;D ;D ;D )
Any help will be very much appreciated ofcourse!
