update - just rebooted after installing the nvidia drivers manually and it now boots full screen.

The "Install Drivers" still does not work and the errors were in the terminal output I posted but at least I now have 3440 x 1440 on my main screen and 1920x1080 on my secondary screen.

My system is open to use for any testing you need carried out with this setup.

Hi

System configuration below and I cannot get it to run the drivers install from the Welcome Screen
Nothing happens.  Can only start up in "nomodeset" as the system logs in ok but it does not initialise my monitor.

I have completed a full system update upgrade and rebooted

What command would I run from the terminal to see any further output ?

Thanks in advance Zeb...

Thanks Jocklad, I'm working on that Synaptic issue. It's actually tied to Grub funnily enough.

Have just done a clean install of LL 3.2 64 bit.

Install was very fast despite using a very old pata hdd.

One thing I did notice when going into synaptic you cannot change the server location it only gives an option to reload

which does nothing.

Otherwise looking good  :)

now to give it a good run.

Jocklad

@dmitry, can you please open: ~/home/youruser/.conky/widget and change line 9 from override_utf8_locale no to override_utf8_locale yes
See if that works.

Linux Lite Widget. Bad symbols (abracadabra :-) under Version line. English language in Lite Installer and Russian Yekaterinburg Time Zone. Locale by default on screenshot.

Thanks dmitry, there has been no announcement yet regarding language during install, this is why we have the Language guide in the Help Manual. Hopefully one day I have that eureka moment and figure out why it's not doing it :)

Thanks, Jerry and team!

Sorry for my bad English...

Mini-PC Intel NUC5PPYH CPU N3700 HD Graphics. One issue: if in Installer to select English language, then all OK, installation successfully completed, but if in Installer to select Russian (Русский язык) language, then after find and configuring hardware, installing system (Поиск оборудования / Настройка оборудования / Установка системы) the Error observed, Installer to stop forced (Программа установки аварийно завершилась).

The same problem was in Linux Lite 3.0 Beta and Linux Lite 3.0 RELEASE. I am sorry, that I not reported about this issue. Workaround: to use English language in installer.

Did a fresh install of LL 3.2x64, from a flash drive, on my older HP with 8gb of memory. Easily the fastest install of a Linux Lite OS yet. From start to finish I think it took 5 minutes. Even installing software I like, & removing 1 or 2 that I don't use, only took a few minutes. I'll report any oddities or bugs, but nothing yet. If you hadn't of said it was a beta I would never know. The darker splash screen on boot up is much better on the eyes.

Release Announcement

Linux Lite 3.2 Beta is now available for testing. There have been a number of changes since the 3.0 release. See below for all the changes.



Lite Desktop Widget - A new optional feature that displays basic system information, including Updates Status that reports the last time you installed Updates. A portion of the code for this widget was outsourced, so thank you to those who support and donate to Linux Lite. To enable this after installation, go to Menu, Settings, Session and Startup, Application Autostart tab, tick Lite Desktop Widget.  Logout then Login again, the widget will appear at the bottom right hand corner of your screen after a few seconds of logging into your Desktop. If you want transparency for the widget, go to Menu, Settings, Window Manager Tweaks, Compositor tab, tick Enable display compositing. The Updates Status will refresh information every 5 minutes eg. 5 minutes after you update, the status will change to Your system was recently updated providing there were any updates installed.

The Lite Desktop Widget shows 5 stages of Status (color coded messages):

Red - system is overdue for updates, update now
Green - system was updated within the last 3 days
Yellow - a reminder that it's time to update your system

1. System never updated - displayed after a fresh install of Linux Lite
2. Your system was recently updated - will display 5 minutes after updates have been applied
3. 6hrs since your last update - hourly update reminders
4. 4 days since your last update - after the 3rd day, the reminder will turn yellow
5. 8 days since your last update - after the 7th day, the reminder will turn red



Grub - Linux Lite should now multi boot with other distros, whilst remaining easily distinguishable to Windows folks in a dual boot environment. I look forward to your feedback in regard to these changes.



Improved Boot Splash - Now easier on the eyes and displays the Eject message at the end of installation more clearly.



Tray Icons - better contrasting



Resource Usage - better contrasting



Updated Terminal theme  - better contrasting



Help Manual - Will not be fully updated until the Final is released. It will contain a new section on the Lite Desktop Widget in the Final Release.

Changelog:

Firefox 49.0
Thunderbird 45.3.0
LibreOffice 5.1.4.2
VLC - 2.2.2
Gimp 2.8.18
Base: 16.04.1
WhiskerMenu - latest

Additional Changes:

New - Wallpapers (community selected)
New - 'Release Notes' link on installer now opens 'Start' page in the Help Manual
Fixed - Mime type for debian packages should now open with Gdebi by default
Fixed - Lite User Manager - /var/mail/ error after removal of user
Updated - comprehensive sources.list
Linux Generic Kernel - should now ensure automatic kernel upgrades via Install Updates
No longer able to report Share Hardware Information from a Virtual machine

There is no upgrade to or from Beta releases. Beta releases are for testing only and it is not recommended to run them as your main or secondary operating system.
