Unit193http://openbox.org/wiki/Help:Actions#NextWindow That's almost close.00:00
gnufunUnit193: Thank you for the reply.  What is the correct line to uncomment in that configuration file?00:00
Unit193sudo sed -i 's/GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT=0/\#GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT=0/' /etc/default/grub00:01
Unit193And you need to comment it out, meaning turn it inoto a comment.00:01
gnufunUnit193: Thank you for that.  I am looking in /etc/default/grub  That line is already commented out (It has a '#' in front of it already)00:04
Unit193So you *should* be seeing the grub for 10 seconds before booting, so it sounds to me as if it wasn't installed.00:05
gnufunAt the very end of installation when it prompted a reboot.  I removed the usb when the computer was off.00:06
gnufunIf the usb is plugged in, the munu comes up.00:06
gnufunand I can then boot from the hard drive00:07
gnufunIf the usb is not connected, then XP comes right up.00:08
Unit193...Or that grub was installed there accidently.00:09
Unit193Once you are in, you can install grub to the main drive.00:10
gnufunWhat is the most efficient way to do that?00:10
gnufunShould I boot from usb, then mount and install?00:10
Unit193https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2/Installing#Reinstalling_GRUB_2_from_a_Working_System00:11
gnufunThank you very much.  I will check that link00:11
Unit193Should get it great from that.00:12
gnufunUnit193: Thank you for your help.  It worked!00:15
Unit193Wonderful! Glad that has it!00:15
casey9hey what is openbox01:45
jmarsden!info openbox01:46
ubottuopenbox (source: openbox): standards compliant, fast, light-weight, extensible window manager. In component universe, is optional. Version 3.5.0-2ubuntu2 (precise), package size 298 kB, installed size 1316 kB01:46
jmarsdencasey9: Does that help?01:46
casey9so its like LXDE01:47
casey9its another one that you can use01:47
jmarsdencasey9: Not exactly; it is a window manager, LXDE is a DE (Desktop Environment).  LXDE uses openbox underneath.01:48
casey9so lubuntu uses openbox01:49
casey9then what so they mean when its optional?01:49
jmarsdencasey9: Yes.  "optional" is relative to the minimal (text only) install.01:50
casey9ahh ok01:50
