Linux Lite 4.4 RC1
On his official forum, Jerry posted a thread informing about the Linux Lite 4.4 RC1 release. For those who do not know, Linux Lite is an operating system based on Ubuntu. One of its rationale is that it is perfect for a novice user who has never touched Linux. On the other hand, and this is interesting for more experienced users, this distro consumes few resources thanks to its XFCE environment.
Among the novelties of this new version we have the Papirus icon theme has been updated to its latest release, Sound Juicer CD has been added to Lite Software, the bugs volume (sound) double or that all references to Google + have been removed. It also includes newer versions of Firefox, Thunderbird, LibreOffice, VLC, and Gimp. Perhaps most importantly, Linux Lite 4.4 will be based on Ubuntu 18.04.2, that is to say, in the latest LTS version of the system developed by Canonical.
Linux Lite 4.4 is coming April 1
The minimum requirements to run Linux Lite are:
- 1GHz processor.
- 768mb of RAM.
- 8GB of storage.
- VGA screen with 1024 × 768 resolution.
- CD / DVD reader or USB port for installation.
The recommended for the proper functioning of this light operating system is a little more, being the 1.5GHz processor, 1GB RAM, 20GB storage and the screen with 1366 × 768 resolution. The truth is that today there are few computers running that do not meet the recommended requirements. In any case, Linux Lite is an operating system perfect for people who want to start using Linux and others more experienced whose intention is to give a second life to an older computer or a small 10 ″ laptop.
Se expect the final launch to occur on April 1, that is, within just one month and five months after the previous one. That will be the day when you lose all tags and the stable version for everyone arrives. Are you considering installing Linux Lite 4.4?
