To my brother. Talk about a windows die hard. Well not really. He's been watching me distro hop for years now and after telling him what windows has been up to he feels a bit concerned.

So I had my LL 2.6v  on a thumb drive made with the system back utility and we tried it on his laptop that he uses windows 7 on. He was pleasantly surprised how fast it booted. However the one thing he thought he needed windows for was to do his UFile taxes.

After using wine and installing it and worked he is seriously thinking about trying LL. Did I mention he's real CHEAP! haha  So in my opinion if he can do it then anyone can.

So in a few weeks (in his own due time) don't want it to be only my idea why he's using LL, we will be doing an install.

Should be fun. We'll convert the world one brother at a time right? haha

Cheers!

I'll keep anyone here interested updated on how things go.......

have loved linux lite from the get go and when i saw that 2.8 was released had to give it another go. Normal install works fine but i need disk encryption (i travel a lot with sensitive data and can't risk it being stolen). When i try to install with encrypted / lvm the install process stalls at "creating user" both on VM and during normal install. I have seen this error/bug with other distro's to and have yet to find a fix.

any suggestions are welcome as i would love to be able to get back to using LL


regards,
NiiX

Seen this error on both a 64bit and a 32bit upgrade.. (also a typo)
[Image: JxHdFWg.png]

Upgraded via LLCC - Lite Upgrade. Both were upgraded both from 2.6.
Doesn't affect install - Welcome Screen still pops up as normal.

If helps Welcome screen was already enabled in 2.6...
Just as an FYI

I'd like to request a feature for a future release of LinuxLite. At present (LinuxLite 2.8 ) the login screen does not allow for keyboard navigation/operation, you can't open the login prompt, restart, shutdown, sleep without using a mouse. You can type into the password box, but only after right clicking the username with the mouse. Can we get some a TAB (select) / ENTER (initiate) setup? I understand 90% of "normal"users have no issue with requiring a mouse to login, but I'm a bit of a keyboard commando, and not having this option drives me nuts. Everything else within the OS I can do with a keyboard operation, hot-key sequence, etc. I just can't get into the system... and if the batteries happen to die on my mouse while I'm on the road with the laptop... well then I guess I'm just out of luck.
