I've tried typing Lite in. There is NO update on this install. Period. I have no idea why the installation type would arbitrarily remove the Update. Doesn't seem like a natural thing to have occurred. I use XFBurn to create a Live/install DVD. This method has worked for every other distro I have attempted to install on this laptop. I have never had any problems installing anything I want on here using that method to create an install medium. This is the first time I've run into the two problems I'm currently experiencing - no update method available other then in Synaptic and the 10 key not working. These are two problems I can't just ignore or work around.
I have already downloaded three other distros that I'll be burning to DVD later this evening. I'm bound to find something more mainstream that will work on here.
EDIT: I just read the post by ohjrson. Can you state that I won't have the same problems with ver 5.0? And can you also state that I won't experience other problems? If you can make one of those guarantees I might consider it. I'm extremely hesitant to attempt it considering there seems to be no solution to the two problems I have with ver 4.8.
