I have decided to handle Windows 10 not being supported by switching to Linux Lite.

I am disabled and spend most of my time lying on my bed and using my MacBook.

I have a main machine in my living area with Windows 10, but I want to migrate it to Linux Lite. It has a 3-GHz I7, 256 GB SSD, and a terabyte hard disk.

I live with my sister, who has no machine and uses a mobile. I am considering giving her my main machine and getting a notebook as my backup machine. I also plan to use Linux Lite on it. It will just be a backup machine.   It will probably come with Windows 11, so I may set it up as a dual boot.

For those interested, I am into mathematical physics, and if you are interested, I am a mentor on Physics Forums. I also have a computer science area.

I have over 30 years of experience as a computer programmer in the government, but I retired early due to ill health, so my knowledge is way out of date. I am happy to help if I can.

Thanks

I am a new Linux Lite user, but I have been using Linux (Linux Mint 22.1, Cinnamon Desktop) and PopOs (22.04, Cinnamon Desktop) for years.

I just converted a Dell Optiplex 760 (SFF) from Windows XP to Linux Lite (7.2). My wife was using the Optiplex to run embroidery sofware for her Husqvarna Viking Embroidery sewing machine, but no longer does embroidery. The Optiplex 760 has 4 Gig of RAM and an HDD, so Linux Lite seemed like a good choice of OS. So far, I am delighted with Linux Lite; it is responsive, and I like the XFCE desktop.

I live in The Villages, FL. I am a retired Systems/Software Engineer, and I love Linux, Python, Data Science, AI, and GOLF.
Prior to my 27 year career in software development, I was an Assistant Professor of Psychology at Randolph-Macon College (Ashland, VA) for 5 years.

I booted to the Linux side since I have an immense amount of hatred towards Microsoft since the Windows 8 release in 2012. Windows 10 has also performed disastrously on my Latitude 5300 (i3). Fortunately, Linux Lite brought out the best of the decent notebook.

I plan to assist new users hereafter for a more seamless transition. I also plan to work on a transition guide on my upcoming summer vacation. I greatly appreciate everyone's effort on making LL a wonderful distro, cheers!]]> false Taradiddle]]> 2024-03-29T09:22:46Z 2024-03-29T09:22:46Z https://www.linuxliteos.com/forums/showthread.php?tid=9092
Though not new to Linux, first experimented in the dark days back in 1999, a lot has changed, and for me Linux lite has succeeded where the heavier distros have failed]]> false FunkAndCode]]> 2024-02-29T22:07:12Z 2024-02-29T22:07:12Z https://www.linuxliteos.com/forums/showthread.php?tid=9075 Hi there from France  :wave,

I'm new to Linux Lite, I installed it 2-3 days ago without issues which is a great start for me
since I'm used to walk the harsh path of bug fixing when I'm doing something on a computer  ;D
I come from Windows but got fed up with bloatware, low performances, no security updates for
windows 10 users etc 

I registered cause I'll probably have a ton of questions, when developing/configuring things.
I managed to install brave browser, vscode and new icon/themes so far, got some issues while
configuring lamp environment  :banghead. If I don't manage to fix it myself I'll probably spam dev help section

Be READY !  :043:]]> false CUP-0-t]]> 2024-02-02T01:28:01Z 2024-02-02T01:28:01Z https://www.linuxliteos.com/forums/showthread.php?tid=9053
Hi!
Ive been using Linux based OS's for about ten years. I currently use several machines with Linux Mint Cinnamon and Ubuntu 22.04 Jammy Jellyfish (silly name or what?).

Im a masochist, I dual boot with Windows 11 and I also run Virtualbox's for test driving stuff.

Recently I found LinuxLite and I really like it. Im running LL 6.6 in my VB now. It has run faultlessly so I am pretty certain that this OS will be a breath of fresh air for a couple of my lower spec laptops. I may even adopt it on a couple of my better models.

I see this system has been well thought out and incorporates some damn useful stuff. It saved me hunting trough synaptic and software manager.

Any rate.............

Thanks, and Ill be keeping an eye on the forum here for sure.

I have been using LL for almost a year on a rescued laptop. Never really need any help from the forums because it was easy to use. Until now. Changing my dead HDD to SSD but snagged a few hitches
