Linux Lite 2 Performance Review & Some Queries

[NRD80V]

Hi
Really a Good Comment and Response to my post.
I enjoyed reading your reply.

I have successfully Migrated to Linux Lite
I faced some issues with Further Application installation due to some kernel issues, once I ran the update, Lite became more functional
I have installed all applications I needed in a seamless way and now I am typing this reply from my Linux Lite Machine

I agree with your comments on Ubuntu and Other OS.
Ubuntu 10.04 LTS was the Best Ubuntu Distribution, then from 11.04 onwards, they have screwed it up
Linux Mint MATE or XFCE Editions alone are workable, Gnome or Cinnamon is resource intensive and not deploy-able
All RPM Distros require us to become a System Administrator, hence not so great for a normal end user
Other Linux are not having stable and consistent performance
Linux Lite really scores well in this dense forest of Linux Distributions

Yours

Hello VN,

Welcome to the community 

I am a Linux Lite user too and cannot answer the question you ask for the Development Team.

I enjoyed reading your review, experiences so far with LL and your opinion, it differs from my own, but we don't live under communism. (sadly some peoples still do)

I installed the "Restricted Extras" from the "Install Additional Software" GUI, which includes the multimedia codecs.
For the type of use for me I have not experienced any multimedia problems at all or codec problems in LL itself.
I did experience a problem in XFBurn, that is not unique to LL but rather to XFBurn, it needs additional things added to burn mp3 as audio cd, the same occurs in Linux Mint as I read Mint forum posts of many people having the same problems.
I think the Install Additional Software GUI looks very nice.
The Restricted Extras are the only item I need/use from the current Install Additional Software GUI, so I cannot comment on any of the other software, hopefully someone who has installed the particular ones can help.

I have installed quite a few things using Synaptic Package Manager and have not found any problems/faults or malfunctions with this yet, my only difficulty being becoming familiar in how to use it as I had not seen it before as a newbie to Linux.

Linux Lite has been very good to use and a wonderful way for me to begin escaping windows.
I have not tried Linux Mint or Debian itself.
I have seen used a long time back Red Hat, Suse and Mandrake as my first mentor used these on his machines , it gave me the desire to dream I would one day use Linux, one I didn't think was very realistic for some time/until I found Linux Lite and its community of friendly and helpful users and Team.

I am only able to mention these other distros that I have used/use -
1/Ubuntu itself , it was a disaster for me and took the techie over a month to fix the hdd after my accepting its first updates directly after installing as dual boot.
2/ Knoppix live cd which I used a few times under guidance /someone walking me through fault finding a windows computer. Also the only game I have ever played was on this live cd.
3/ Xiaopan (live cd). I did not have issues. I had some newbie instructions from China in the snail mail.
