[07:17] <drbean_> What's the app that allows you to boot an image file off a CD or usb drive on an older system that doesn't allow booting off those drives?
[07:18] <tsimonq2> Hmm... PXE?
[07:18] <tsimonq2> I'm not sure what you're referring to.
[07:20] <diogenes_> drbean_, have a look at this: https://www.plop.at/en/bootmanager/download.html
[07:22] <drbean_> I have an older laptop that I can't boot off a usb drive (I think I can boot off a CD drive)
[07:22] <drbean_> I want to boot it off the usb drive.
[07:23] <drbean_> I think plop is what I was thinking of.
[07:23] <diogenes_> drbean_, with the link i have given you, you boot from cd and there you will heve the possibility to boot from usb
[07:23] <diogenes_> it works very cool
[20:49] <ciphergyst> Does anyone know the command to invoke the screen lock on boot? currently shutdown or reboot loads unlocked session. I believe the default lock screen is lightdm-gtk
[20:49] <wxl> newer versions should be using lightlocker
[20:50] <ciphergyst> it might be light locker, you are right
[20:51] <wxl> `light-locker-command -l` should invoke locking if the github page is to be believed
[20:54] <ciphergyst> ** (light-locker:4219): WARNING **: 13:53:20.054: screensaver already running in this session
[20:55] <ciphergyst> I can manually lock from the GUI, but need it to invoke during boot or system startup
[20:56] <wxl> what version are you on?
[20:58] <ciphergyst> 18.04 LTS
[21:01] <wxl> huh
[21:01] <wxl> that works just fine for me
[21:01] <wxl> what does `light-locker-command -q` give you?
[21:01] <ciphergyst> The screensaver is inactive
[21:02] <wxl> what about -n or -r?
[21:03] <ciphergyst> missing argument
[21:03] <wxl> ugh great.
[21:03] <wxl> you sure you don't have some other locker/screensaver system running?
[21:06] <wxl> yeah well SOMETHING has changed because i can't replicate the same behavior
[21:09] <ciphergyst> yeah, its weird
[21:09] <ciphergyst> I'm guessing i would need to poke around the systemd files
[21:10] <wxl> or some log somewhere, though i'm not sure where
[21:11] <wxl> in ~/.config/lxsession/Lubuntu/desktop.conf do you have a value for screensaver/command?
[21:12] <ciphergyst> let me check
[21:12] <wxl> you shouldn't, fwiw
[21:18] <ciphergyst> I cant seem to find that specific path
[21:19] <wxl> well that might be your problem right there
[21:19] <wxl> the default configuration certainly has it
[21:20] <ciphergyst> unless its in a different directory
[21:20] <wxl> it's not
[21:20] <wxl> maaybe you didn't capitalize the L in Lubuntu?
[21:22] <ciphergyst> cd ~/.config/lxsession/Lubuntu/desktop.conf
[21:22] <wxl> um
[21:22] <wxl> you can't cd to a file
[21:22] <ciphergyst> good point
[21:22] <wxl> XD
[21:23] <ciphergyst> Im still a linux noob haha
[21:24] <ciphergyst> got it open in leafpad
[21:25] <ciphergyst> no value in screensaver/command
