some years ago Jerry gave some terminal instructions so that Linux lite could be run in a very basic mode.. It was a development thought / experiment. Have tried to find it on archive , without success. Would like to test that approach for LL 4.4 64 bit if possible. Laptop basic use Fuji Si1520 3 GB RAM . Thanks

E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem.
Hi. I got this when i try to install Lite and update.

Hello,
I have recently installed Linux Lite 3.4 on a very old Dell Inspiron 6000 Laptop (Celeron M Processor/2 GiB RAM/ 32 GiG Hard Drive)
I have used a couple of other Linux distros in the past (Ubuntu and Mint) which I like very much but for this particular laptop I decided to use something much lighter and chose Linux Lite. So far i am very happy with it, since it is a 32 bit system and based on the Ubuntu 16.4 OS I am fully aware that support will end (April 2021) and that I cannot upgrade to the 4.0 series.
Lite 3.4 came with LibreOffice 5.1.6.2 and my question is: "Can I upgrade the Office Suite to a newer release or should I stick with what came bundled in with the install?" I am always a little concerned using software that is not up to date, especially when the updates fix bugs and possible security issues (I don't know this to be true with LibreOffice but it is in the back of my mind).
I did upgrade the OS to 3.8 and that is how far I could go with this hardware, please let me know if there is a newer version of office that will work with Lite 3.8. Thank you.
Steve

Just wanted to say thank you to those involved in creating and maintaining Linux Lite. Total newb here, and not really a "computer guy" (but after years of using and rebuilding them I can keep one running).
Avoided Linux for many years because I hated the thought of having to mess with ANY code. Recently decided to give it a whirl. Tried playing with Mint, Peppermint, Puppy, etc. In each instance I have come back and ended up with Lite on the system. It is very well suited to me (a beginner) and seems like it is solid enough to keep it even once I am not a beginner.
THANK YOU!

| Lite 4.4 install - no support for Intel AC3165 wifi |

Hello
I have just bought a Lenovo Ideapad, specifically to take abroad as it is so small and light. It has an Intel dual wifi/bluetooth chip, the AC3165, but there is no RJ45 Ethernet port, and so everything must be done by WiFi.
Unfortunately, LinuxLite 4.4 64bit install does not have a driver for the AC3165. Which is odd, because the 3165 has been around a long time (for example, it is recognised by the Puppy Linux install process).
After installing LinuxLite there is no way I can download the relevant driver, as there is no wifi or cable connection.
I am looking into downloading a driver on another system and loading this, but why not add support into the installation procedure, particularly as the OS is otherwise good for low spec computers?
