Is LXLE not of Linux?


Just tries LXLE and found it very good, I good for me. I intend to use it. Have to find a forum to help me on many questions regarding to LXLE. It is not listed here under Linux sub-forums. Is it not Linux?

Thanks

It is most certainly a Linux distro.

Not every distro has its own forum (I don't know the procedure for establishing such a forum, but I believe there is one), but that doesn't mean that you can't ask a question about LXLE in another forum, such as Software, Desktop, or even General, depending on the nature of the question.

lxle is a distribution based on Ubuntu/Lubuntu that uses the lxde desktop.

The only real requirement for creating a sub-forum for a particular distribution is if that distribution maker will participate in it.

Since your question is not about Puppy it is being moved to just the linux-distributions forum.

LXLE is just a remaster of Ubuntu configured to use the LXDE desktop environment. As such most LXLE users check the Ubuntu forums and the LXLE site and links, and then the LXDE pages.

Thank you.
"but I believe there is one"
Yes, there is one, LXLE forum. I tried to register. They asked me for the reason for registering, I replied, for learning Linux. The registration was denied.
Is that forum for experts only?
