[13:58] <lopta> If I dd the lubuntu .iso image onto a USB flash drive, will a PC boot from it?
[13:58] <lopta> ...or do I need to use something like unetbootin to add a bootable header?
[14:08] <melodie> lopta it will boot:
[14:08] <melodie> provided your pc is able to boot to usb
[14:08] <lopta> Great. Thanks melodie!
[14:09] <melodie> a tip, if you have a pc that don't boot to usb, sometimes using plop boot manager on a floppy or on a cd will allow booting to usb
[14:10] <lopta> Thanks, I'll keep that in mind.

[14:12] <melodie> all his files aren't open source, but this works often very nicely
[14:26] <lopta> Hey, it works!
[14:36] <melodie> lopta of course it does
[14:42] <lopta> Oh. This next laptop lacks PAE, so that won't work.
[15:29] <lopta> Third laptop: In Display Settings I have the choice of 'Show the same screen on both laptop LCD and external monitor' but no option to extend my desktop onto the external monitor. How do I fix that?
[20:58] <Ellon> Hey
[20:58] <Ellon> I just installed lubuntu and it's awesome!
[20:59] <Ellon> IT asks me do i want to upgrade to lubuntu 15. Is it worth it?
[21:05] <krytarik> Ellon: If you are currently on 14.10, why didn't you install 15.04 in the first place? Also, decide for yourself: http://lubuntu.net/blog/lubuntu-1504-vivid-vervet-released
[21:07] <Ellon> i had 14.10 on flash
[21:09] <Ellon> is still 15 fast as 14?
[21:10] <krytarik> Why wouldn't it? Not much has changed.
[21:10] <Ellon> im worried about RAM
[21:13] <krytarik> !14.10 | Ellon
