Yes, Jerry, I found that; but it's not v4.4.   So no UEFI version of 4.4 yet. Any chance you know timeframe on when it might be built?

Can you please post a link to the UEFI version??   I'm unable to build a boot USB for my Mac.  I did boot and install before using the UEFI version for 4.2.64bit

Thanks!

Did image backups of my partitions, and got ready for the upgrade.
Upgrade completed in less than 4 minutes.
All working smooth and fast, as usual.
Thank you, Jerry and Team.

PS: The double-volume control is still up there on my top right corner.

As you'll see in the announcement, double-volume control was not passed into the Upgrade. To fix, Menu, Session and Startup, Application Autostart, XFCE Volume Daemon - untick.

Replaced LL2.6 on my partners laptop with LL4.4. I think it's a great improvement and she should really like it.

Just did the update on my laptop and so far so good.

Its an old HP Elitebook 810 with i7 5600u, 12GB RAM, 1TB M.2 SATA SSD, Intel HD 5500

The major issue I had previously was when I connected it into its hp docking station and closed the lid sometimes it would not turn on immediately on the external screen.  So far so good now.

Just installed on my VM to test it out.

Upgraded it from 4.2 to 4.4 without a hitch.

It seems a lot snappier than 4.2 so far.

Upgraded without problems, thanks.  Among the many advantages of Lite, many of us get to live in the future at upgrade time.

Donation to follow shortly.

Release Announcement

Linux Lite 4.4 Final is now available for download and installation.

This release has a number of minor changes.



Changes:

Moved from Betas to RC releases. The RC releases Build number is the date of the actual ISO build eg. Build 24022019 - 24th February 2019. The RC information and Build number will only appear on the default wallpaper for that release, Login screen and the Live Boot screen. The positioning of the text is such that it allows room for desktop widgets like Conky and Lite Widget to appear uncluttered on the right. Finals will not have any build information on the default wallpaper.

RC Build wallpaper:



Updated the Papirus icon theme to the latest release.

Sound Juicer CD ripper has now been added to Lite Software. To get rip-to-mp3 support, Sound Juicer will also install the Restricted Extras package.





Volume level - the double level volume bug has been eliminated.

Removed all references to Google+ as that service is due to close down on April 2nd 2019.

We have moved from Sourceforge distributed servers to OSDN as OSDN will help to finance our project. Their systems and mirror choices are virtually similar.


Details:

Kernel: 4.15.0-45 (custom kernels also available via our Repository for versions 3.13 - 5.0)
Firefox: 65.0 Quantum
Thunderbird: 60.4.0
LibreOffice: 6.0.7.3
VLC: 3.0.4
Gimp: 2.10.8
Base: 18.04.2

Known Issues:

None as yet.

Please note:

RC1 was a solid release where no hiccups were reported. As such, this 4.4 Final is basically the RC1 with only the wallpaper changed. Therefore, if you have 4.4 RC1 installed but want the Final, RC1 IS the Final. One caveat, since there were no updates to the build from RC1 to Final, your first updates will be a big one.

Upgrading

> Menu, Favorites, Install Updates (you must reboot if asked to, otherwise continue to the next step)
> Set a Restore Point - Menu, System, Timeshift
> Menu, Settings, Lite Upgrade
> Reboot


Having problems upgrading? First thing to do is open a terminal, and make sure you have the latest version of Lite Upgrade.

Code: [Select]
apt policy lite-upgrade-series4
should return:

Code: [Select]
  Installed: 4.0-0030-linuxlite
  Candidate: 4.0-0030-linuxlite

If you've ran Install Updates and still don't have this version or greater you can either - wait 24 hours, or change to the default Linux Lite repository in Lite Sources.

Lite Upgrade - What it will do:

- New Lite Software
- New Lite Welcome
- New Lite Help Manual
- New Lite Themes
- New Lite Upgrade
- New Wallpapers

Lite Upgrade - What it won't do:

- Nothing to list.

There is no upgrade path to or from Beta or RC releases.
There is no upgrade path from Series 2 or 3 ( 2.0, 2.2, 2.4, 2.6, 2.8 | 3.0, 3.2, 3.4, 3.6, 3.8 ) to Series 4.
