The work studies the line-transitive point-imprimitive automorphism groups of finite linear spaces, and is underway on the situation when the numbers of points are products of two primes. Let [Formula: see text] be a non-trivial finite linear space with [Formula: see text] points, where [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] are two primes. We prove that if [Formula: see text] is line-transitive point-imprimitive, then [Formula: see text] is solvable.

In this paper we prove the following theorem. Let $\cal S$ be a linear space. Assume that $\cal S$ has an automorphism group $G$ which is line-transitive and point-imprimitive with $k < 9$. Then $\cal S$ is one of the following:- (a) A projective plane of order $4$ or $7$, (b) One of $2$ linear spaces with $v=91$ and $k=6$, (c) One of $467$ linear spaces with $v=729$ and $k=8$. In all cases the full automorphism group Aut(${\cal S} \!$) is known.
