Very nice!

Thanks! That's kind from you!
I hope I'll be able to upload the second video, with Linux Lite 6.2 RC 1 running on a real hardware machine, ASUS X200 MA.

Best regards,

VIDEO: Linux Lite 6.2 RC 1 Running on an ASUS X200MA laptop!

Hello!

I managed to do the necessary stuff for the second video on Linux Lite 6.2 RC 1.
Everything went very well. Excepting the low level of the available resources, my conclusion is that Linux Lite 6.2 RC 1 can be used decently on this class of machines.
See the specifications in the video.

Hello. I tested the 6.2 RC1 version. There are changes and updates. But the task manager SMC is not updated. There are a lot of bug fixes and some new features.

I think SMC in 6.2 RC1 is older than v1.11. Because the charts are not interactive in the installed software.

Will the task manager be updated in the 6.2 stable release?

I will have a look and test it at some point, but it will take some time as I had to modify it to display Linux Lite information properly.

Hello!

I am confused regarding the version.
On the site, it says about 1.27.0.
The Application though, shows this:

So... How do you get the real version? How do you know "it is an older version"?

This is what GDebi Package Manager says on attempting to install 1.27.0:

The latest version, according to the developer, is (as of 07 Oct 2022, 13:39, GMT+3) 1.27.0. :o


Best regards!

We forked it, it's in the 6.0 announcement.

It was forked. Also there are a lot of feature differences between these versions. You can view the version times from this link:
https://github.com/hakandundar34coding/s...r/releases

New version numbers can be like 1.27.0-linuxlite. But I do not know if this version numbers cause problems.
I do not know if there will be there problems when the software is updated from 6.8 to 1.27... version.

Hi, Jerry!

I figured that out!

You tweaked the code a lot, as I see it!

I downloaded the latest version.
I've noticed three things:

1. A nice conky was added, titled "Summary". Looks great!
2. The OS version is wrong. This is where you changed the code...
3. The GPU graph code, has been commented out. I belive that writing the code fot the Summary section to add a GPU gauge, takes time and has been postponed for the future releases. It implies the rewriting of all the code related to the video subsystem.

The Repository version (6.8 ), comes (I guess) from Linux Lite 6.x and the minor, is the current build... 8 so far...

Will the new version be included in LL 6.2?

Frankly, I doubt it. It's too much to do and the time frame is "narrow", so to speak. I'd rather expect it as an update, along the way.

Best regards!
Șerban.

I've looked at it, and the reason we'll be staying with the current version is because it more closely resembles what the Windows version looks like. And that's one of the aims of this OS, to give people familiarity.
