7.8 Runs Great. Used it on a 2 Month Old Hasee X5 
& I'm using it on my Favorite ride or die HP 15 r029wm Rev: 2213-100

Could use a good first guy crash course. [edit: Oh hey, see that Wiki link right on the Desktop? Booyahh]
MicroSlop CoSlop+ is lame.

Not getting locked out of a laptop all because I am in a car ever again. Linux, I've missed ya, bud. 

I Mostly do the live boot thing, but when I get things setup how I want, I'll do Linny Bo Binny Proper. Thank you for your patience as I transend from Linux N0000b to Linux Novice.

The installation went smoothly and everything works, even the touchscreen. I was able to install all the software I use with a combination of the Lite Installer and Synaptic. However, when I installed ProtonVPN using apt in the terminal, I ended up with a choice of two desktops at the login screen; Gnome and Xfce. I much prefer Xfce.

Had some medical issues.
Lost my Mom to Cancer. 
Moved to Texas.
Bought a house. 
Landed a full time I.T. job here & learning a lot of new things.

Back to messing with Linux OS distros on all my older, still serviceable laptops.
Especially with all the Windows Junk out there, looking for more flexibility.

These are scattered about the house so as needed someone might grab one and browse away the day. And Samba is running on them all -- file sharing is really sweet.

And I've a goal to publish some open source software. I could never find a picture viewer with all the right features so why not write my own. Using Qt on LL and windows, just coming to terms with Qt Creator. Two things remain -- Zooming with the scroll wheel and working with EXIF data. Fun stuff.

Yeah I'm an old software guy -- PDP 11, DOS, SuperDOS and all the flavours of windows. And now with LL trying to be a little more than an appliance operator.

Good to meet you all,

I have decided to handle Windows 10 not being supported by switching to Linux Lite.

I am disabled and spend most of my time lying on my bed and using my MacBook.

I have a main machine in my living area with Windows 10, but I want to migrate it to Linux Lite. It has a 3-GHz I7, 256 GB SSD, and a terabyte hard disk.

I live with my sister, who has no machine and uses a mobile. I am considering giving her my main machine and getting a notebook as my backup machine. I also plan to use Linux Lite on it. It will just be a backup machine.   It will probably come with Windows 11, so I may set it up as a dual boot.

For those interested, I am into mathematical physics, and if you are interested, I am a mentor on Physics Forums. I also have a computer science area.

I have over 30 years of experience as a computer programmer in the government, but I retired early due to ill health, so my knowledge is way out of date. I am happy to help if I can.

Thanks

I am a new Linux Lite user, but I have been using Linux (Linux Mint 22.1, Cinnamon Desktop) and PopOs (22.04, Cinnamon Desktop) for years.

I just converted a Dell Optiplex 760 (SFF) from Windows XP to Linux Lite (7.2). My wife was using the Optiplex to run embroidery sofware for her Husqvarna Viking Embroidery sewing machine, but no longer does embroidery. The Optiplex 760 has 4 Gig of RAM and an HDD, so Linux Lite seemed like a good choice of OS. So far, I am delighted with Linux Lite; it is responsive, and I like the XFCE desktop.

I live in The Villages, FL. I am a retired Systems/Software Engineer, and I love Linux, Python, Data Science, AI, and GOLF.
Prior to my 27 year career in software development, I was an Assistant Professor of Psychology at Randolph-Macon College (Ashland, VA) for 5 years.
