Linux Lite Kernel

[Valtam]

Is there anything in particular that you would like me to try ???

Just what is mentioned in the first post, if you have those brands. Other than that, thank you for your feedback

Fujitsu Siemens Amilo Si1520  + 2GB RAM on LL 2.0 + new trial Kernel. Video working fine on INTEL 945GM/GMS 943/940 GML Integrated Graphics Controller (rev03).  Display max 1280 x 800

Was working on original Kernel.

As an aside - I know it should be in software section- but Google Earth still does not work as "unsupported graphics card" even after the kernel upgrade - Works on this machine with Puppy Linux 5.7.1 and Xorph  Puppy upgrade..

Thank you for the Intel feedback, much appreciated.

I install kernel 3.16 RC6 and what a surpise. No errors or problems with this kernel. I hope that more Lite-users it gone testing it.

This thread is specifically for the linux-headers-linuxlite-3.15.0 linux-image-linuxlite-3.15.0 kernel, I don't want people confusing the issue with other kernel versions. Thank you

Just fresh installed LL 2.0 on my old Tosh A10 . All VG. Tried to then install trial Kernel and got this
"
~$ "sudo apt-get install linux-headers-linuxlite-3.15.0 linux-image-linuxlite-3.15.0 -y
[sudo] password for newtusmaximus:

Has the "Trial" stopped?  TIA

Your sources list probably needs to be refreshed first after initially installing the system.  If you run sudo apt-get update before running those commands, it should then work.  However, if you just did a fresh install, run the regular "Install Updates" (Menu -> Install Updates) to install all initial updates first.  Then install the new kernel afterwards.  (If you run "Install Updates", that will automatically update the sources list so you won't need to run sudo apt-get update before the kernel upgrade in that case.)

Ta G_F Good job one of us knows what I am doing!
Installed updates found missing 3.15 .
Kernel 3.15.0 installed faultlessly and all appears to be flying. Toshiba A10, Celeron R 2.0 GHz, Intel 855GM integrated Graphics - running at 1024 x 768 60Hz.

Very Happy Bunny!!  Brought much faster life back into the old machine!!

Installed Kernel 3.15 earlier and just restarted (was busy looking for more material for a new LL tutorial  ). Seems to have improved boot time by a second or two, but I can't be too sure. If it did, excellent!

Running on an Acer Aspire 5750 w/ Intel Core i5 (2nd Gen) CPU @ 2.3 GHz, 4GB DDR3 RAM, 500Gig HDD and Intel HD Graphics 3000. My specs can be found here, excluding the Windows 7 of course, hahaha.
