LXLE LS (first beta available)
-
The BackStory
I recently setup a small local garage with Linux. Particularly LXLE which is now handling all their business needs. This led me to attempt an LXLE version specifically designed for small to micro businesses. Probably businesses with 10 or less employees and of course freelancers should be able to install and use the system to handle most business interactions.
What does the LS stand for?
The LS stands for LanShop, which bascially indicates that the main business apps are available to anyone on the 'network' and or 'Lan'.
What can LXLE LS provide?
Point of Sale System
Employee TimeClock
Simple LAN CMS SIte
Business Accounting
Calendar & Scheduler
Project Management
Desktop Office Suite
Desktop Publishing
Diagram(s) Creation
Image Manipulation
Audio/Video Editing
Network Integration
Private File Sharing
Bulk / Time Email
Label Designer
Address Book
Discipline Help
Local "Lamp"
Lan Stats
and more
The 'Lamp' is comprised of lighttpd, mysql, php and of course Linux.
More details will be available shortly.. for now testing ISOs are available on Sourceforge.
It surely needs input, suggestions and help from all who may test it.

Thanks,

P.S. A maintenance update for the standard LXLE OS is also being uploaded to Sourceforge as a beta, this is unscheduled but fixes were needed.

Silly mistake on the 64bit 'beta', in the course of moving configuration files from one build to the next in order to speed up development time by not reinventing the wheel. Apparently 'hidden files' was probably not enable and the .htaccess file associated with the GetSimple CMS system didn't make it in. This was an omission pointed out by a beta tester. A very good example why beta testing is necessary. Although the beta still works, it is best to place the provided .htaccess file in the server directory.
To do so simply download this file. Unzip the htaccess file to the desktop. Go to your menu and select 'System Tools' and 'Lamp Control' click on the 'open' under local host. This will open your local server directory. Simply move or copy the file from the desktop to the directory. Then rename it from htaccess to .htaccess
After doing so the file will seem to disappear, it's simply hidden and can be seen again by enabling show hidden using the right click menu.
Then click 'Refresh' under the Lighttpd area of the Lamp Control app to restart the server.
An update to the 64bit is in progress to correct the issue. Until then this is a simple fix to the omission.

But only one problem, I want to create a sub menu named "Business Tools" under the main menu and put all the "Lamp Apps" links there for quick access..... but don't know how to do that. Please help.
