Linux Lite 3.8 Final Released

[friTTe]

Worked like a charm

Did updates then upgraded from 3.6 to 3.8 32bits on three PCs. Everything went fine.

On full install though (on empty HDD) when selecting "Français" in the installer, it still hangs at after the file copy when selecting "Français" in languages. ("The installer has crashed..." message).
And as prior versions, when trying the install with the same settings a second or sometimes third time right after fail (no reboot), it goes all the way.

Installer in english then putting a language pack seems to work OK, but just wanted to let you guys know.

Thanks again for all the hard work on this great distro!

Cheers!

First clean install of 3.8x64 done.

Fast and smooth.

Thanks for the feedback folks

I'm taking 2 months off work to work on LL 4.0

I'm sure this release is excellent as the others have been rock solid in the past. Thanks for working on such an incredible project. 6 years and still going strong! Downloading now!

My little HP "Travelbook" is getting this for sure. Put Linux Mint Cinnamon on here a few months back. Man, what was I thinking??? I have Distro-hopping fever again... Haha. Time for something stable! I also will try and put this on my ASUS ROG laptop. Didn't do this with the last release because my touchpad right click button wasn't working. Hopefully the kernel driver update for the Elan touchpad I have in Manjaro now has trickled down to LL.

Upgraded an older machine from 3.4 (updated) to 3.8. The update did not succeed and was greeted with a black screen...

I didnt know at the time it crashed, thought maybe it was taking a long time so I left the machine running.
I came back 2 days later and was still on black screen, had to hold power button to turn off PC.
On reboot it made a Kernel panic and stopped. Rebooted, same.

I held SHIFT on reboot and reverted back to previous 4.10 kernel and it booted ok.
Then trying to do updates it said installation was broken and I had to do a repair (sorry I didnt take note of the command but I think it was a dpkg --config something). It work on a bunch of packages for awhile and came back to prompt. Rebooted OK so I ran the updates (step 1) .
I had to leave but it seemed to be working. I'll see tommorow.

If you have any tests for me to do, I'll run them also.

Cheers!
