Post: Re: Have a problem, just not with Linux Lite, NOT ...

I am afraid this will sound lame, but it is an Inspiron but I was never given paper work to give you the model number, exactly. A 580?  But, since you are on the HAL 9000, maybe you can tell me...(Pit...

Post: Have a problem, just not with Linux Lite, NOT YET....

Post: Re: Any modern Motherboards without UEFI & Secure...
