Linux Lite 5.2 Officially Released, Based on Ubuntu 20.04.1 LTS

Based on the Ubuntu 20.04.1 LTS (Focal Fossa) release, Linux Lite 5.2 is a major update to this GNU/Linux distribution for the masses and older computers. It’s using the same kernel as upstream, namely Linux 5.4 LTS. The biggest changes in this release are the move of the Firewall and Lite Widget settings to Settings Manager, along with the ability for Lite Widget to display laptop battery status, a feature requested by the community. Another major change in this release is the fact that the Adobe Flash Player plugin has been completely removed from the ISO image due to its upcoming deprecation at the end of the year.
