I searched and didn't see this mentioned: Would it be ok to install 3.0 beta and then update it to the full version later? Or is that not advisable or possible.

Thanks.

There are no Beta to Final upgrades in LL.

Nice work Jerry & Team  8)

I couldn't get the 32-bit version working in VirtualBox at all on 2.8, created a bootable USB with persistance using Unetbootin, runs & updates ok.
One thing I noticed I don't think has been mentioned yet is when in the properties of a file > Open With > Other Application... some of the entries in there are doubled up.
There's also some double ups when there are already entries in the Open With list, .jpg's for example, it shows ImageMagick (display q16) twice.

Thanks for letting us know Smile

No probs Jerry.
Desktop icons stay where they're put after a restart, oooh I do like that  ;D
The default Style isn't the easiest to see, not much distinction between title bar & menu bar etc., Kokodi is much easier on ageing eyes.
When starting up & shutting down when the feather appears there's no progressbar anymore.
If there it must be the same colour as the background & can't be seen.

EDIT: With the volume control in the panel, left clicking it brings up the slider, pushing it all the way to the top it says 100, mouse pointering it shows Output 98%, all the way down it shows 0 & the mouse pointer shows Output 5%, and the Notification that appears top right of the screen also reflects this, it never quite goes all the way to the left for 0 or all the way to the right for 100 but it's movement does follow the slider ok when the slider is moved.
All I have shown there is the sound and network icons & their background stays as the same as the system theme regardless of panel settings being changed to another colour, rest of the panel changes but not that notification area icon backgrounds.

Perhaps when starting instead of the default splash being 'None' it could be set to 'Simple'?
People can see something is happening instead of just a blank screen, which is partly the reason I mentioned not seeing a progressbar above also, shows things are happening.
Apologies if that's covered already in this thread.

Progress bar was eliminated, it was not accurate at all. Default style will stay, this is something that can now be improved over time. Thank you Smile

Re: Linux Lite 3.0 Beta Released - JmaCWQ - 05-14-2016

Some of the volume control slider issue I'm seeing seems to be somewhat related to the mouse pointer location inside the slider circle itself.
Sometimes if I move the slider up and down for a few seconds then move the slider all the way up it's only showing around 85%, the tooltip & notification progressbar seem both to reflect that.
Other times if I put the mouse pointer right on the bottom of the circle & slide it up it goes to 100%, the notification progress bar goes all the way across & the tooltip reads 100%, same in reverse with the mouse pointer placed at the top of the slider circle & sliding down.

Can't get into Light Locker settings by going Menu > All > Light Locker Settings, it does nothing.
Not sure what the Terminal command is to get into it's settings but if I run light-locker I get "** (light-locker:3463): WARNING **: screensaver already running in this session"

Light Locker Settings already addressed in this thread. I'm having some second thoughts on Volti. We may go back to Indicator Plugin.

Oops, sorry for not reading thread properly, browsed it right through yesterday but that bit never sank in  :-[


I did notice Volti using over 30 MB of memory when looking in Task manager earlier, back on 2.8 now and I see indicator-application/indicator-application-service & indicator-sound/indicator-sound-service are only using 4MB & 11MB respectively.

Re: Linux Lite 3.0 Beta Released - Mike - 05-16-2016

3.0 is coming along nicely, guys. I had issues with Volti too as I usually do on this machine. I had to change the card from 0 to 1 in the config file as my 0 card is HDMI. Also, the sound notification bar wasn't changing (solid blue bar) while increasing/decreasing the volume but changing the style to greybird solved it.

Re: Linux Lite 3.0 Beta Released - Mike - 05-16-2016

Jerry, I noticed that QT apps like Clementine are not using the correct GTK theme. You can fix this by putting the following at the bottom of ~/.config/Trolltech.conf:
Code:
[Qt]
style=GTK+
