fdssdgWhen i install 15.10 i dont see the installation process. is it removed in this version ?07:49
hateballfdssdg: It should show. However, 15.10 goes EOL very shortly, so you'd do well to install 16.04 instead07:54
fdssdgI can see the pictures and news but not the line moving there.07:54
fdssdg16.04 is not working on this computer.07:55
fdssdgIs it something wrong with the installation and i have to start over ? will used 16.04 if it was workiing for me.07:59
fdssdgI beleve it will works after EOL just no more updates.08:03

lxde_troublehello!22:18
lxde_troubleI'm using Lubuntu 14.04 LTS and I need some help, please22:18
dg87does lubuntu minimal have the desktop gui?22:28
dg87what is the difference between minimal and core?22:34
lxde_troubleI've never used minimal, but you can read this: http://askubuntu.com/questions/384546/lubuntu-13-10-minimal-install-shows-no-desktop22:42
lxde_troubleI use Lubuntu 14.04 LTS and yesterday all the icons and menu dissapear. I only saw the wallpaper and the cursor22:44
lxde_troubleI've reinstalled lxde using: sudo apt-get install --reinstall lxde22:46
dg87i just installed "core" i think, and there is no gui, isn't lubuntu basically LXDE. yet it doesn't seem to have it22:46
dg87what is the command line to run the gui in lubuntu?22:46
lxde_troublestartx22:46
dg87i don't think there is any gui installed on "core" heh22:47
lxde_troublethen you can install lxde using: sudo apt-get install lxde22:48
dg87i'm looking for a minimalist version of lubuntu/lxde without apps like torrent/mail/spreadsheets... etc22:49
lxde_trouble...after reinstalling lxde I see the login screen but it is different, it is not the same like lubuntu default.22:49
dg87i think lubuntu is a mod version of lxde22:49
lxde_trouble...and my users are not in the login, only usbmux and ntp22:50
Unit193dg87: You should rather install the core task.22:50
dg87Unit193, what is the command line22:50
Unit193You can select it from tasksel, or apt-get install lubuntu-core^22:51
dg87Unit193, what is the difference between installing lubuntu-core and lxde?22:52
Unit193A fair bit.22:52
dg87i just want a usable lxde desktop22:53
Unit193Also note you are installing 'lubuntu-core^' the task, not 'lubuntu-core' the metapackage.22:53
Unit193So, install lightdm and lightdm-gtk-greeter then?  Or lxdm.22:53
lxde_troublePlease I need some help, I can only login using root.23:04
wxllxde_trouble: you mean as admin?23:04
lxde_troubleAll my users name have dissapeared from login screen23:04
lxde_troubleYes, sudo -s23:04
lxde_troubleI reinstalled lxde and all the users have gone, only have "usbmux" and "ntp"23:05
lxde_trouble...at the login screen23:05
wxlare all the users you expect in /etc/passwd?23:05
lxde_troubleYes, they are23:06
lxde_troubleI can login from terminal, but not from gui login screen23:07
wxllooking at any of them, do they have any weird things like a shell set to /bin/false or a home directory that doesn't exist?23:07
lxde_troubleI can see the home directory of both users23:08
lxde_trouble...but they are not in the gui login screen23:08
wxland what about the whole /bin/false thing?23:09
lxde_troubleI can see a /bin but false is an executable file23:10
wxli'm talking about /etc/password23:10
wxldo you see the user's home directory listed as something weird or the shell set as something odfd, like /bin/false?23:10
wxlfor example:23:10
wxlsomeuser:x:1000:1000:someuser,,,:/home/someuser:/bin/someshell23:10
lxde_troublethis are my users in /etc/password23:11
wxlif /bin/someshell is /bin/false, that's bad23:11
wxlif /home/someuser is a directory that doesn't exist, that's bad23:11
lxde_troubleluis:x:1000:1000:luis,,,:/home/luis:/bin/bash23:11
lxde_troublesonsoles:x:1001:1001:sonsoles,,,,:/home/sonsoles:/bin/bash23:11
wxlthat all seems reasonable23:11
wxlthere's also a user list in /etc/lightdm/users.conf23:12
wxlyou might check that23:12
lxde_troubleIn /etc/lightdm I only have lightdm-gtk-greeter-ubuntu.conf and lightdm-gtk-greeter.conf23:16
wxlharumph. not sure what to tell you.23:17
lxde_troubleI have not users.conf there23:17
lxde_troubleMaybe that is the problem23:18
wxlit kind of doesn't help i'm on kubuntu now :)23:18
lxde_troubleOk, thank you "wxl"23:19
ianorlinI really don't know what do for that I have never had any problem of that sort23:47
