Linux Lite 4.6 Officially Released, It’s Based on Ubuntu 18.04.3 LTS

After several months of work, the final version of the Linux Lite 4.6 operating system is here, coming five months after the previous version, Linux Lite 4.4. The entire system is based on Canonical’s recently released Ubuntu 18.04.3 LTS (Bionic Beaver) operating system, but it doesn’t ship with its newer HWE (Hardware Enablement) Linux 5.0 kernel by default. Instead, Linux Lite 4.6 is still powered by the stock Linux 4.15 kernel of the Ubuntu 18.04 LTS (Bionic Beaver) operating system series, though users will be able to install a wide range of kernels from Linux 3.13 to Linux 5.2 from the official Linux Lite software repositories.
