Will be installing a fresh copy of LL 4.0 64 bits final on my old Toshiba when it comes out.
I've been using 3.x 32bits but my CPU can handle 64 bits architecture.

If I backup things in 3.8 using Aptik will I be then able to get them back in Lite 4 or will that risk breaking he new system?

1.-how did you install pulseaudio-equalizer?
2.-Settings Manager now is called Control Panel? - No, but on the Desktop it is. Our primary target audience is Windows users, not Linux folk so things need to be familiar.
3.-Software updater didn't find available drivers for my system's graphics chip - what GPU?

1.-The usual:

Code:

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:nilarimogard/webupd8
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install pulseaudio-equalizer

2.-Understood, very considerate of you, and a smart idea.

3.-Core i3-3225 with Intel HD Graphics 4000, never had a problem before, is there a way I can force the installation manually?

Hey, thanks for your attention, and keep up the great job.

PulseAudio - doesn't look like it's ready yet - https://askubuntu.com/questions/1031916/...untu-18-04
GPU - shouldn't need to install anything, we provide i915 support ootb.

Not recommended, breakage is highly likely.

[member=7562]Nyto[/member] I've thrown together a package that should work (tested at my end). Feel free to give it a go on 4.x - https://www.linuxliteos.com/files/pulsea...uxlite.deb Open with Gdebi only.

Tried it yesterday.  It booted to a guest account I created.  Saw one monitor, but not the next.  And I couldn't see the panel to get to anything.  Tried using the right click menu.  It seemed things would open, but they would do so in the screen I could not see.  This was similar behavior to what I got using the Live Media for LL 4.0 Beta. 


For the same laptop and docking station, I Switched Users from the guest account to my main account.  I got to a logon screen, and when I typed in my password, the screen went dark, and the monitor went into sleep mode.
