Linux Lite 3.8 Final Released
#41
Purchased 3.8 on DVD and had it shipped to me.

I've been a rush to get an old machine up and going for the grandchildren, and decided to go with Linux Lite.
Once I got that machine up and running with this OS, the machine hasn't had much rest.

Thanks Jerry, we're loving it!!!

Greetings, everyone.
I wish everyone health.

This is my first post on this forum.

I need to understand how many people are still using LL 3.8 x86 (32bit) and in no hurry to change the system?

Welcome, I think you will find the forum members very helpful with any questions you have.

I use LL 3.8 (32 bit) exclusively for all the older and even some of the newer laptops I use for my study group youth in South Africa.  I chose to stick with this for the following reasons:
1) because people are usually donating older laptops the majority have been 32 bit (although I am now getting more 64 bit ones) and most commonly the HDs are smallish (50 GB to 250 GB).
2) I really like "Systemback" and the ability to make restore points as I have had to resort to using these at times.
3) Until I no longer have 32 bit machines it is easier for me to run one L.L.OS on these laptops as it makes it easier to trouble shoot issues with any given laptop I have placed with a youth should a problem arise.

Hope this helps,
Janet

That's great.
The thing is, I use euphoria 3.1.1 in development ( http://rapideuphoria.com/ ) and I like it a lot better than openeuphoria ( https://openeuphoria.org ).
In addition, unlike the eternal beta 4 version of OE, Eu 3.1.1 works fine on all wins from 95 to 10 and is even included in the basic freedos package, but only 32-bit and is not built with gcc > 6.0 (i.e. ubuntu 16, debian 9, ...).

Whenever possible I'll switch to OE 4, but so far I'm fine with 3.1.1. Only fewer and fewer people are interested in 32-bit level systems like ubuntu 16, debian 9, ... and I don't think it's fair.

I have only one  32bit laptop that is working well. Excellent keyboard. I some time ago switched from LL3.8 32 bit to Debian 9 with non free drivers etc.  as I found the Debian to be  "lighter" with quicker responses etc.  Works very well as a basic machine.  .  Supposedly will be supported until June 2022?
Have not as yet tried Debian 10 32 bit,  Not therefore sure what effect it will have on performance.https://wiki.debian.org/LTS

2007 - Fujitsu Siemens V3405 Laptop  2 GB Ram LL3.6 32bit. Now 32bit Debian 9 + nonfree.
