Thanks John for the information.


Lubuntu and Ubuntu are definitely different, which makes the need for 
compatibility a focus that us in Africa must address.



Our learning institutions will have to align with much more modern technologies 
that make access to open solutions possible.



I suppose hardware upgrade is a simpler challenge than not have any geospatial 
learning solutions/platforms.



Cheers!

Hi Astrid,



Ubuntu doesn't provide 32 bits ISO images since 18.04.

Since we are ubuntu based, that is something hard to bypass.

16.04 LTS section)



best,

Hello,

at SotM 2019 in Heidelberg I talked to Serverin and have feedback about
OSGeoLive.

http://www-dev.hotosm.org/people/sverin-mnard/

He runs many courses for QGIS / OSM using OSGeoLive especially in
Africa.

His experience was that many people are working with very old computers
that do not support 64bit.

This is why he is using still OSGeo version 11.0 in some cases as this
is the last version available in 32 bit.

So my question is whether we can provide the actual 13.0 as 32 version?
Or is this a lot of work.

Sorry, if we discussed this before and I missed it.

Astrid
