[lubuntu-devel] New Lubuntu tarball with UXA acceleration for old Intel graphics

[Nio Wiklund]

Hi Phill, Jan and all Lubuntu Users,

I made a new tarball with a 32-bit Lubuntu system using UXA 
acceleration. It makes it easier to install Lubuntu in computers with 
some old graphics chips from Intel, where Lubuntu 16.04 LTS has problems.

Lubuntu_16.04_oem-uxa.tar.xz

It is described at the following link (in my tutorial thread about the 
One Button Installer),

There is a corresponding compressed image file to be installed with mkusb,

dd_Lubuntu_16.04_oem-uxa_2016-may_7.8GB.img.xz at

@ Phill,

You wanted tarballs with Lubuntu 16.04 LTS. I think this is a
useful one - a 32-bit system to use where it can be difficult to install 
from the Lubuntu iso files. Please describe it or link to it in your 
document pages.

@ Jan,

Please test this tarball or compressed image file in your computers with 
old Intel graphics. How is it working? Should something be changed/improved?

@ everybody with old Intel graphics,

You are welcome to use this Lubuntu_16.04_oem-uxa tarball or compressed 
iso file. I hope it will make it easier to get Lubuntu working in your 
computer.

Best regards
Nio
