S6rry t6 be a *a5n, but I tried the tweak routine, and it will not work running from the usb stick.  It did not ask for a password of course, as there is none.  As y64 can see, I must still use Fn key.

This is my last concern before installing, but will the lite tweak work once I install?

Did you reboot, or unplug the USB after using lite-tweaks ?
The reason I ask is the usb is a live-session and read-only environment, so while the tweak will work as you use the live session, once you reboot it needs to be applied again.

Once installed the lite-tweak will work after reboot as it is stored in the OS settings

Thanks.  I think this answers my concern.  ;D

Thanks, but so far, it won't work during usb test.  Think I'll go ahead and install it.  Will give my results here as SOLVED or screwed.  Wink

I am very happy to report SUCCESS!. Installed 4.4 yesterday, but I was a bit worried until today, when I opened my new os and I was able to type what I asked for.

I am impressed with what I've seen so far, and I hope Linux Lite and I have a happy relationship for as long as my Acer lasts.

Thanks to all for helping me take the plunge.
