We have stated numerous times that we have our custom kernels for people who need the newer ones. That is why your question went unanswered. I just assumed that most people knew that by now. Cheers :)

Hi. I noticed that the kernel in LL 3.6 will still be the 4.4 family. I'm assuming you're using an LTS kernel for stability. I thought you would be upgrading to a newer LTS kernel. Or are you waiting for LL 3.8 to do that?

FYI, a search I made shows that the 4.9 series is the next LTS kernel, with 4.14 to be the next one after that.

Link to that article: https://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=news_item&px=Linux-4.9-LTS-Kernel

Been about 5 months since I posted this. Had not seen a response. Still curious on when the default kernel for LL will be upgraded to a newer version.

Ref update error reported previously.


Have since found out this was due to a failing HDD enclosure.


It was nothing to do with LL 3.6 beta .

@TheDead better Broadcom support from now on. There won't be an all-in-one solution for everyone, but will be better for more people.

I don't know if this is LL or Ubuntu related but I installed LL 3.6b x32 on an old 1GB Atom netbook this weekend without a problem, this time ;) .

It had LL 2.8 x32 previouly (before v3) but I had to mess around with drivers quite a lot since the crappy Broadcom WiFi BC43xx gave a lot of problems at the time. Unfortunately, the HDD was needed in another computer so the Netbook was put in the closet Abyss.

Got my hand on a replacement HDD this weekend so I installed LL 3.6b. The WiFi card was not seen but using the ethernet I did the updates and LL gave me a choice of WiFi drivers so I Used the "Recommended" one and everything went A-1.

I did not benchmark LL 2.2 at the time so I don't know if 3.6 is better/faster on this Atom turtle though. :-P

I wasn't overly worried about this. Update errors can happen anytime. It doesn't directly point to an issue with the Beta. Do appreciate your feedback though JL.

32 bit now been running on Fuji V3405, as per sig, now for some days.  repos changed to UK.  Updating but not as frequently as 3.4 64bit (HP DC7700 sf) on default repo source.  Both machines set to hourly notifications.

All appears to be OK - just general browsing - youtube etc.

Yay for 16.04.3!  \('')/ <- ASCII power!

Thanks for the wine info Jerry I already do that ;-)
I had the same problem in Mint. I tought that maybe Lite Software was a little more "independant" from Ubuntu with it's "Lite" name and all *wink*. Maybe adding a third party section in Lite Sources for stuff in Lite Software? Wink, wink, poke, poke. ;-)

Anyhoo, its, sad for Ubuntu repo, considering that Wine 2.x is woo-ay better than 1.x, I'll have to check on how to make a script to install the stable 2.02 or dev 2.14 versions

All hail the mighty Jerry! Urrah!

I also have a quick question about versions, will 3.6 have 16.04.3 already in the ISO and can Lite Softwares be updates to Wine 2.02 Stable (with the install recommends I guess) ? Wine updates can be installed trough PlayOnLinux but are not system wide it seems.


Yes, 3.6 will have 16.04.3 as a base.
Wine - defaults to whatever is available in the Ubuntu repos at the time. We want to minimize the amount of PPAs used in this OS, and you would have to use a PPA to use a newer version of Wine. I use the Wine staging PPA myself. You can install it with these instructions - https://wiki.winehq.org/Ubuntu

Apart from the language/installer bug I reported. The Lite Sources works fine. ;)
