Linux Lite 3.0 Beta Released

On 64bit VirtualBox.

Screensaver doesn't appear to be installed.  And when I tried opening the Light Locker Settings, it does not open.  I get a spinning mouse for about half a second, but nothing opens after that.

Announcement mentions the exclusion of Screensaver. I'll look into Light Locker. Thank you

Agree with these suggestions.

My oversight.  I stepped away from the VM, and when I came back to it, it was locked.  I assumed there was a screensaver setting locking it.  When I couldn't find that, I looked into Light Locker.

It is possible that I locked my PC (using Super + L), which locked the VM.  On that note, I'm not seeing a Lock Screen option in the Menu.  But either way, I couldn't get Light Locker to open.

Full install from 32 bit dvd to Fujitsu Siemens Amilo Si1520 ran smoothly.. Keyboard "function" Fn key locked on .  Changed settings/keyboard
unticked  General "restore num lock on start up"
LAYOUT - unticked "Use System Deafualts", Changed Keyboard Model to " Fujitsu Siemens Computers AMILO group",  Keyboard Layout to "English (UK)"

All appears to be working .  updates installed smoothly. Will keep testing

Thanks.  Will there be a Lock Screen option in the Menu like before?

I have tried mate a couple of weeks ago and was attracted to the orange theme they had. Looking for a theme similar to that. It's not something that makes me want to use mate but I have to give it to em for that Ubuntu color theme.

Yes I have noticed that the borders are quite difficult to see at first glance. Never thought of complaining about it until I saw this post. Yes it could be an issue for visually challenged individuals. Maybe the orange theme could help there. Agree with MrNanook and jcoles about that.

I don't think thats its a mate only theme right?

I would like to point out that this is an issue NOT pertaining to only 3.0 but I was reminded after installing it to thumb drive. It's been a few installs where the keyboard on my Acer Aspire ONE from default gives me the wrong characters like t=6.

I'm used to it now where I just correct it by pressing the proper keys to shift it back. I think it's a multi language keyboard.

Not sure how many people are affected by this. I believe there was a post while back where someone was having this issue and I mentioned it to him on how to correct it.

I don't think its a language issue. or is it?

If you are interested and need more info about this lmk what you need.

On the comment about the borderless windows of the Arc theme, I notice when I have a File Manager window open, I can only grab the top edge, the top two corners, and the bottom right corner to resize the window.  I cannot grab the bottom left corner or any other edge beside the top edge.

In a Terminal, I can only grab the top edge and the top two corners to resize the window. 

These issues are alleviated somewhat when I switch the Window Manager to the Arc-Dark or Arc-Darker themes.  But these issues go away altogether if I switch the Window Manager to Kokodi, Daloa, or Moheli.

Note:  I am using 64bit LL3.0 in a Virtualbox VM.
