LL Jerry = Ladies LOVE Jerry or linux lite Jerry,

thanks for all your work.

Lite upgrade from 3.0 to 3.2 not working on my desktop. the Upgrade in the menu is not available (I looked very closely) even searchbared the update and upgrade did not get it.
I wonder if the package did not get installed initially for some reason
FYI
it is a tri-boot system W10, WVista, LL3.0 and I had a bear of a time getting that to work but I can boot all 3 os's native now (not virtual)
I wonder if the package was missed or corrupted in the original LL3.0 install?  I had great difficulty just getting it to update period. 

info below from term commands

Code: [Select]
cat /etc/llver

Excellent job for LL3.2, Jerry & all the devs.

One thing I'm intrigued about with LL3.2. Most of the time I use an ESET antivirus for Linux though apparently it is not supported by SystemD - I found that out when I tried to install it on Lubuntu 16.04 for my son - needless to say it wasn't compatible.  However, with LL 3.0 and 3.2, ESET works out of the box ... well done for that.

The upgrading from LL3.0 to 3.2 went smoothly.  However, it had the unintended consequence of upgrading an older version of Supertuxkart (0.8.1-2) to the current 0.9 version, which I didn't want as the graphics card in the PC is too old to run 0.9.  How can I prevent LL doing this in future series upgrades?

Many thanks for any advice on the above and keep up the great work that you and all the devs do

Regards
Mike

2008 - Asus X71Q (2cores) ~ Intel [email protected] - LL4.6/Win8.1 dual-boot, LL works fine with kernel 4.15
2007 - Dell Latitude D630 (2cores) ~ Intel [email protected] - LL4.6, works well with kernel 4.4; 4.15 doesn't work

Well, I understood "For most users, the open-source Radeon graphics stack is "good enough" particularly if you just care about desktop use-cases, video playback, and light gaming." I am clueless about that open stack stuff.  ::)

Hopefully, that will not be a problem using Linux Lite.

Quote from: Release Notes for 16.04

Canonical will not be supporting the fglrx/Catalyst Linux driver in their archive beginning with Ubuntu 16.04 Xenial Xerus. There's nothing stopping anyone from downloading the latest release from AMD.com and installing the driver directly or generating the Debian packages from that -- assuming upstream Linux kernel and xorg-server compatibility -- but it's not being supported by upstream Ubuntu.

For most users, the open-source Radeon graphics stack is "good enough" particularly if you just care about desktop use-cases, video playback, and light gaming. However, currently the open-source Radeon Linux graphics stack only supports OpenGL 4.1 rather than OpenGL 4.5, the open-source OpenCL compute stack leaves a lot to be desired, and there are other current open-source AMD driver limitations that for some users will make switching to the open-source driver a regression in experience and performance.

... I couldn't find any mention of the upstream issues with AMD/ATI and the 16.04 LTS... Does this version of LL still have those?

I have never had any problems but I am using ADM Radeon HD (integrated).

Thank you very much for your answer!!
Yeah, I'm going to try it regardless of the AMD CPU.
I'm so glad I'm back to LL!
Cheers!

ATTENTION ALL WHO UPGRADED:

There was a bug in Lite Upgrade. This is now fixed. Please run:

Menu, Favorites, Install Updates
Menu, Settings, Lite Upgrade


I know this is pain for some to run this again, but if I don't fix this properly now, we will have this bug every upgrade.

Thanks for the info. Just did the update and upgrade without a problem.

That answers my question I was about to ask because I did it before reading this. No problem, just had to set the LL widget to autostart and reposition it with Conky manager.
