Linux Lite Kernel

[Valtam]

Is there anyone willing to try the 32bit kernel? I need to know if this is just me that it is quirky with. It won't bork your system, if it does the same as it does here, you just won't be able to boot into it from Grub. If that is the case, just reboot into your usual kernel from Grub.

Missed this Jerry - If you're still needing someone to test I can try it out on the Mini...

[Valtam]

Yes please.

So for 32-bit 4.9...
It did boot and got to desktop....

Issues noticed right off:

• No mouse control - touchpad nor usb
  
• Display reverted to 800x600 (typically 1024x600)
  
• Missing log in sound
  
• Seemed to take longer to boot
  

Was able to bounce back to 4.4
Let me know if you need anything from the system, I could access terminal and use the keyboard...

The build for 4.9 32bit kept erroring out, and I could not find the cause. Hopefully 4.10 will be hassle free.

Glad I could assist..

Ditto..

4.10 Linux Lite Kernel is now available for 32 & 64bit machines.

Open a terminal and do:

Code:

sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install linux-headers-linuxlite-4.10.0 linux-image-linuxlite-4.10.0 -y

Ignore any errors in the terminal.
IMPORTANT: Only install this kernel if you need it or if you are adept at getting out of trouble from a TTY.

I have a question:
Generally the kernel consist of 3 packages: linux-headers, linux-image, linux-image-extra.
I notice that in the custom kernels the package "extra" is not include (exist only: linux-headers-linuxlite and  linux-image-linuxlite)
Why? The linux-image-extra is not important?

I'm certainly open to that, given that it contains additional drivers. We'll take a look at the next Kernel release. Cheers.

Thank you!
As a novice user I want to say that I am very impressed from your work on Linux Light!
