Menu, Accessories, Fonts - may crash or freeze first time, then maybe do the same the next 1 or 2 times. Can take a while to eventually load. Appears to settle after that.
my posts about the installation headaches with this machine have been to document them and any solutions or workarounds I've found for the benefit of others who might encounter similar problems. These sorts of issues will hopefully be pretty uncommon except for similar machines.
Quote from: WytWun on May 19, 2020, 08:47:26 AMAs noted here this machine doesn't recognise any Etcher flashed 5.0rc1 USB stick as bootable.I did read that originally. It's extremely hard to accept that one machine cannot recognise any Etcher flashed drive. I'm not saying it's not true, understand that. It should not be showing up as 'ubuntu' in your boot-from-device menu, I also have an entry called 'ubuntu' but I select the actual name of the USB drive to boot from it ie. 'External USB Hard Drive'. That works no problem.

How did you burn the ISO, with Etcher?
Observations:- the Grub boot menu still says "Ubuntu" instead of "Linux Lite" (did you say this should be fixed for the final Jerry?)

@minesheep and my libblockdev-crypto2 fix?
@minesheep please do:Code: [Select]sudo apt install libblockdev-crypto2systemctl restart udisks2.serviceand report back if that fixes it, I'll put it in the Final is it does.
sudo apt install libblockdev-crypto2systemctl restart udisks2.service
VirtualBox and Audacity installs fine from Lite Software here on RC1.
FYI - I just successfully installed Virtualbox with Lite Software. Works fine on my system.

What happens when you select to Install 3rd party drivers for graphics and wifi during install? If you're connect to the internet, it should pull those in and install them.
