I have a multi-boot setup on an old DELL Vostro 1520 (BIOS setup) with Linux Lite 3.0 in charge of grub, which works well. 

I would like to upgrade from 3.0 to 3.2 but have a couple of questions before I do this...

I read on the Release Announcement page that the Lite Upgrade won't do: New Grub config (potential to ruin peoples existing multi-boot setups)

Does this mean that if the upgraded Linux Lite is NOT in charge of grub menu it won't boot?  (so same behavior as 3.0)

Would I need to do a fresh install of 3.2 to get the NEW  multi boot with other distros functionality?

I'm guessing fresh install is the answer but I'm not entirely sure so any advice would be appreciated.

Hello,
I installed Kodi from Lite Software.
I made one change so far, I added from the options, Sveriges Radio.
Top right of Kodi I have a red sound icon, the stations of Sveriges Radio I have tried are playing but without any sound.
I have looked at the Kodi setting panel under audio, there does not seem to be any muted.

Update - I have uninstalled Kodi for now.
I can wait until Kodi release a new version and then try.

Not being an IT specialist and having only been using Linux for 5 yrs. I`ve not been able to solve an anomaly with Firefox. I use Sophos-av and no matter what O/S I download including LL Firefox is shown with a corrupted file unless I do not install or sign in.This shows up in Arch, Antergos, Manjaro, Mint, LL, peppermint and any of the Ubuntu flavors with one exception, Ubuntu 16.04.1. I have uninstalled Firefox in LL and the file remains. I double checked with clam a-v on a couple of O/S s and it shows a Trojan in Firefox. Signed in to Ubuntu LTS with exact same sign for Firefox with the exact same apps and no corrupted file. I had been using opera and chrome along with Firefox and I can only assume the problem must be in my Firefox when I log in except it is not in Ubuntu. To reproduce the problem simply download free sophos, install and run scan. Others may have the file also and not even know it is there.

I have just started using Shotwell for image management and basic editing and like it. However, I found that trying to send pictures by email (single or selected, edited or original) directly from it failed. Google took me to ubuntuforums.org message 2058352 where Edward Comer says that

Hi all,
I'm pretty new to Linux and just installed Linux Lite 3.2

Just tried to do a sudo apt-get update from terminal and i do get an error message:

Is that normal?

Someone suggested to ping 91.189.92.152 which seems to work...

Apologies if it's a stupid question, but I am pretty new to Linux so not sure how to solve it.

Thanks in advance for any help you can provide

Anyone how to fix VLC or some other player to play a hevc.x265.mkv file. I recall video codecs has always an issue in Linux. Don't have this problem in Win 10.

it morphin time

like the title says. my experiance with the 3.2 been good. but here what i dont like. after i login my wallpaper moves to the side and then refreshes itself. the refresh fixes the wallpaper but it an lil irrating to me. yes that an small gripe but it one i notice. i am so loving the latter of the usage though. barely any strange behaviors like arch. plus i say this may give mom a chance for her MAC to go bye bye. i for one love linux and id tired of the consent run ahout with updates.

it morphin time

Linux Lite doesn't needs anti virus correct?
