Linux Lite 3.0 Beta Released

[glin22]

I fired up LL3.0 beta in virtualBox.

The first thing I noticed is when I was installing it, no indicator showed the progress even though there was disk activity, it just sat there. Once it was installed and did an update, then a progress bar showed activity.

When I right click on the desktop, the menu that comes up is very strange, doesn't show an indicator bar showing where I am at in the menu. Also, the menu behavior in the whisker menu area just seems odd to me visually. Shouldn't that also show a light blue bar first in the first section ? The second area to the right has a darker blue bar whose behavior seems ok, wish the first part had the light bar using the same behavior.

In the workspace area, I was a bit confused when I looked there, it doesn't mimic what's actually on the screen, a generic icon comes up, it threw me off for a few minutes until I figured out what was going on. Is is computationally expensive to get the screen and shrink it so it shows the super small version of the screen in the workspace area ?

Anyway, these are just my impressions and feedback so far on the 3.0 Beta

I am using the 64 bit version of the Beta.
