[05:16] <libben> installing alternate Lubuntu 15.10 on an HP Stream 7 to avoid having to install grub, which I don't want. I have a usb hub attached with my Edimax EW-7811Un dongle, but it is missed at the hardware detection phase. What can I do?
[05:18] <libben> ^ It's recognized perfectly in the regular Lubuntu live environment, but again that forces me to install grub.
[05:20] <tsimonq2> libben: why don't you want GRUB?
[05:26] <libben> tsimonq2: Ok, so my partition scheme is {[300mb EFI Paritition][30gb ext4 partition mounted at root]}; since the device I'm using has 32-bit eufi the install fails at GRUB-install, leaving some steps undone. After the install failed, I was able to correctly configure grub from the commandline. THe system boots, but I notice it has some weird errors I attribute to not being able to finish installing. So, since I already have grub, I want to
[05:26] <libben> reinstall Lubuntu on my root partition and leave the installation of GRUB alone; once the system installs correctly I'll boot to a live environment, chroot into my system, and update GRUB's boot options once more.
[05:26] <libben> *the install of Lubuntu
[05:32] <libben> Ok, just attempted the alternate install again. It failed at "select and install software". Gonna go with this post https://askubuntu.com/questions/461499/error-installing-ubuntu-14-04-the-failing-step-is-select-and-install-software and try to format and re-attempt the operation

[08:57] <gnu_d> Hi, I got intel hd graphics, but when booting normally, it can't find the screen (says in the xorg logs), and the font is distorted, returns to the text login. When I try to boot with recovery mode and use the first option that is normal boot, it works, but that's bad way to start the computer.
[09:13] <Mux4> If i dont have internet when installing what thing is needed ? Will lubuntu extras give me all i need ?
[09:17] <Mux4> Is there any problem with install lubuntu if i forgot a sd card inserted ? Some readers can not be used when install drivers.

[13:52] <damascene> Hi KindSnoo
[13:53] <KindSnoo> i have a slow old thinkpad laptop
[13:53] <KindSnoo>  currently runs windows 7
[13:53] <KindSnoo> do you think i could grt lubuntu on it?
[13:53] <damascene> if it runs windows 7 I think it can run Lubuntu very easily
[13:54] <KindSnoo> ill be using it for reddit, google docs, wikipedia, and canva.com
[13:54] <KindSnoo> maybe like inkscape or something
[13:54] <KindSnoo>  light graphic design
[13:55] <damascene> when it comes to graphics there are many factors that you should take into account. I think it would be OK if it's just a light things
[13:56] <KindSnoo> flag design and such
[13:56] <KindSnoo> will i be able to get latest version of firefox?
[13:57] <KindSnoo> ?
[14:02] <damascene> KindSnoo, I think so. firefox is always the latest version on all the Ubuntu flavors that I tried
[14:31] <Wox4> If i dont have internet when i am installing what will missing ? Can i install rest of it later and how ? Lubuntu extras ?
[14:45] <Wox4> Someone here ?
[15:46] <Aks> does anyone know why my lubuntu installer always gets stuck on setting the sizes for the partition of lubuntu?
[15:48] <Aks> Guys?
[15:49] <damascene> Aks, which version of Lubuntu?
[15:49] <Aks> pretty sure its 14.03
[15:49] <Aks> LTS
[15:51] <Aks> its 14.04.3
[15:51] <Aks> LTS
[15:56] <Aks> I'm trying it again
[16:02] <Aks> should I choose something other than install Lubuntu alongside Windows? Apart from erase disk
[16:03] <damascene> Aks, you can manually configure it but that require some experience with partitioning
[16:04] <Aks> Which I don't have...but I can try. I know Windows is only taking up 11gb so I plan to give Lubuntu 18
[16:11] <Aks> 12gb is 1200mb, right guys?
[16:12] <Aks> its 12000 actually
[16:17] <damascene> right
[16:26] <Aks> does anyone know why my mouse cursor disappears after a while during install?
[16:27] <damascene> Aks, I had similar problem but in virtual machine but restart fixed it
[16:27] <Aks> The thing is this is the 4th time I've tried to install
[16:27] <Aks> each time with the same problem
[16:33] <Aks> So I've set the windows partition to 12gb...will that take a long time?
