Linux Lite 2.6 Final Released
Wirezfree:
Hi,
Unless somethings changed "NO"
See this thread
jbecker:
I have a question that doesn't appear to have been addressed in these forums. I'm still on ver. 2.4 and my list of "packages have been kept back" just keeps growing longer.
Before I upgrade to 2.6, should I run "sudo apt-get dist-upgrade" (as shown below) and then reply with "Y" (when prompted as to whether I want to continue) in order to upgrade the packages that have been kept back? Or should I perform the upgrade to 2.6 first and see which, if any packages are still "kept back" afterwards? Thanks.

My fedora laptop died, but to repay me for fixxing two computers, I was given a desktop computer. It doesn't have enough RAM for Gnome. So I installed Linux lite 2.6, and it has been doing good so far.

I'm glad I found this forum to finally, and this Linux Lite 2.6 is running like a dream of this five-year-old Fujitsu E8420 laptop. Good work has been done.
