Running Lite 3.2 and have been checking "Lite Upgrade" application to see if 3.4 is available which I know is out there.  "Lite Upgrade" keeps telling me "You are already running the latest release." 

Do I need to wait a few more days or upgrade by some other means?  I am absolutely in no rush because 3.2 is working just fine - it ain't broke.  I might skip upgrading to 3.4

Thanks

[member=6629]ralphy[/member] have noticed a strange anomaly. If the file /usr/local/sbin/.updnotify exists, Lite Updates Notify will not show the desktop notification. If the /usr/local/sbin/.updnotify file does not exist, the notification works fine:

Hello to all,  I am trying to setup a shared network connection between windows and linux where my HP Deskjet F4480 All in One Printer scanner copier in direct usb connected to a Linux Lite 3.4 32 bit System PC  and I am currently trying to get printer to communicate from windows to linux 32 bit and so far To no avail however the printer on the windows side plus the linux side to my knowledge is successfully connected and etc... So Any and all suggestions would be most helpful because at this point I am currently clueless as to what to do next to troubleshoot the problem at hand..  Also Just so you know as well I have tried on the windows side as microsoft has suggested that I do which is to uninstall my windows drivers regarding my printer and then reinstall them after restarting my computer and it still has not been communicating from the windows client side on Windows 10 x64 Home Edition version 1607 with all Windows updates to this point!  Thank in advance for all the support!.......

Good afternoon, I'm trying to join 3 .VOB files
From the terminal and something I'm not doing well because they do not join.
I'm putting cat * .VOB> file.vob but it does not work
Let's see if they know (sure if given that I always receive a satisfactory answer in this forum) I'm mistaken.

Thank you very much.

Linuxlite-2.8 with xfce
I want to use kde
Would someone direction which app to download and install

There is a short and very positive appraisal of Linux Lite at Techradar, it is mentioned as one of 10 in the article "10 of the best lightweight Linux distros". 

Quote:[...] if you have a machine from the past 10 years with at least 1GB RAM inside you should find it a snappy, worthwhile option.

Try it on modern hardware and you'll be amazed at just how quick it runs. Given that it's just as happy running from USB media as it is installed on a hard drive – and, indeed, more than happy to run in a multi-boot configuration – it's a free burst of speed that's worth checking out.

After I've replaced a defect hd, I now have also installed Linux Lite. I've learned SuSE in 2000, 2001, but have not used it, because it won't accept a PC, which was accepted by Windows 95. In the last years I've passed a linux certificate from Webmasters Europe and tried or used for a longer time several distros: Debian, Linux Mint, LXLE, Parsix and other. Now I'm very happy with Linux Lite. It seems to be absolutely smooth and trouble-free. Cool stuff. 

This forum is packed with useful tech resources when it comes to solving a problem.  Here's how my new 3.4 installation went today.
Installer was crashing everytime just before the end of the process, so I started poking around the LL forum. And thanks to an old Coastie post, I read that sometime LL ends up being installed anyway even after a crash message.  So I tried installing LL3.0 alongside LL2.8 on my 10-year old Compaq Notebook.
To be sure, the installer crashed but I also noticed that the partitioning was completed.  I couldn't check my Grub menu since I don't see it when I boot up. But again, thanks to a 2015 post here, I found out how to get back the Grub screen. And there it was!  LL 3.0 installed properly.  A bit of a rocky road, but the results make me very happy!  The last step, updating from 3.0 to 3.4 barely took 36 minutes and 522MB :-D

Just getting into programming and Linux. Any help or pointers books whatever would be greatly appreciated.

I am just getting into programming and linux. I really like the OS but I am having like 3 min boot up times.  Anyone that can help it would be greatly appreciated.

I just installed this OS last night, and am having the chance to get acquainted with it today. All updated without a hitch! Plus it even has the BluRay capability! That's very impressive!

I come from a Fedora background. I finally had to switch from them, due to the age of my computer; plus I was sick and tired of having Gnome bog down all the time. I guess I was due for a change wasn't I? 

I also used to be a beta tester for Windows 7. I saw quite a lot in that beta test, and having lost my $2500 64 bit board due to hackers during that beta test, I switched to GNU/Linux - and I haven't looked back since. Yes it's been that long since using any Microsoft OS.

For those of you just coming from a Microsoft OS you're in for a wonderful experience with this OS. It is a bit of a learning curve; but if you're willing to put in the time and effort to learn Linux Lite, you will be rewarded for your efforts. Plus the community here (and the GNU/Linux community as a whole) are very nice people. We really want to help you when you need it. We were in the same position as you when we first started to use GNU/Linux - so you have nothing to fear.
