Linux Lite 3.6 Arrives September 1, Still Based on Ubuntu 16.04.2 LTS, Linux 4.4

Linux Lite developer Jerry Bezencon and his team have recently started working on the next major release of the Ubuntu-based GNU/Linux distribution designed for old computers or PCs with little RAM and CPU power.

The current version of Linux Lite is 3.4, and it's based on the Ubuntu 16.04.2 LTS (Xenial Xerus) operating system, using the Linux 4.4 LTS kernel, but the team is now preparing the Linux Lite 3.6 release, which they say will bare two major new features while remaining based on Ubuntu 16.04.2 LTS and Linux kernel 4.4 LTS.

"Linux Lite 3.6 Beta is now available for testing. There have been a number of changes since the 3.4 release. In this release, we introduce two major new features, Lite Sources and the Linux Lite Help Manual search engine for both online and offline mode," said Jerry Bezencon in the forum announcement.
