| CrazyTux | hello, does lxqt on lubuntu has all the functionalities of lubuntu lxde? | 12:39 |
| lubot | <marneu> @CrazyTux [<CrazyTux> hello, does lxqt on lubuntu has all the functionalities of lubuntu lx …], Probably not. LXDE doesn't have all the functionalities of LXQt, either. | 12:45 |
| CrazyTux | lubot, how can I search for a file on a partition? | 12:46 |
| CrazyTux | I want to find a file on a partition. | 12:46 |
| CrazyTux | btw, is lxqt a point and click desktop? | 12:49 |
| CrazyTux | which DE is recommended if one wants to get work done with least dependence on the terminal? | 12:50 |
| CrazyTux | I tried using Tool - Find Files options in lxqt's file manager. It seems it doesn't work perfectly. | 12:51 |
| lubot | <marneu> All desktops on Linux are 'point and click' desktops. LXQt's file manager has a search function, but I don't know whether you can search *only* a partition. Alternatively, you could try catfish (might need to install it first). ... Not having to use the terminal is one of the design goals of LXQt, but tbh I don't know how far they came | 12:52 |
| lubot | with that - I love using the terminal :D | 12:52 |
| CrazyTux | lubot, ok. So I need to install catfish. | 12:53 |
| lubot | <marneu> If you don't want to use the terminal at all, Lubuntu 18.10 isn't that great I think, because there's no GUI for the driver manager and network manager included. Xubuntu (with the Xfce DE) might be better, since it's more mature. | 12:54 |
| CrazyTux | lubot, btw, is lxqt on Lubuntu 18.10 well tested and reasonably bugfree or is it still under testing? | 12:54 |
| lubot | <marneu> btw, 'lubot' is the name of the bot who bridges between irc, telegram and matrix. my nick is 'marneu' ^^ | 12:55 |
| CrazyTux | ok | 12:55 |
| lubot | <marneu> Compared to other Ubuntu flavors, Lubuntu 18.10 is on the buggy side I think. | 12:56 |
| CrazyTux | marneu, ok | 12:57 |
| CrazyTux | then, which is more stable? | 12:57 |
| lubot | <marneu> Xubuntu is extremely stable. | 12:58 |
| CrazyTux | marneu, ok. Xubuntu LTS? | 12:59 |
| lubot | <marneu> LTS (i.e. Xubuntu 18.04) has fewer bugs than other releases, but I don't think it even matters for Xubuntu. | 12:59 |
| CrazyTux | ok | 13:00 |
| CrazyTux | Xubuntu vis-a-vis Mint Xfce? | 13:00 |
| lubot | <marneu> dunno, probably the same. The good thing about Xubuntu is that you can upgrade to Ubuntu's 6-monthly releases (e.g. 18.10), but on the other hand you might not want that anyway if you're concerned about bugs. | 13:02 |
| CrazyTux | ok. I want a stable and bugfree OS. | 13:04 |
| apt-ghetto | stable and bugfree normally means old | 13:39 |
| apt-ghetto | for stable and bugfree aka old os, take a Debian | 13:40 |
| lubot | <marneu> They don't want to use the terminal, though, so Debian is not such a great choice. | 13:41 |
| apt-ghetto | the terminal is very stable | 13:41 |
| apt-ghetto | for beginners i recommend to use a *buntu | 13:42 |
| apt-ghetto | i do not recommend linux mint, because not all security updates are delivered with the default settings | 13:42 |

| CarbineMorpho | is lubuntu 18.10 running wayland or xorg? | 16:21 |
| CarbineMorpho | I have looked online and its not clear | 16:21 |
| lubot | <aptghetto> Check it with echo $XDG_SESSION_TYPE | 16:33 |
| lubot | <marneu> Lubuntu 18.10 ships with Openbox, which doesn't have a wayland session. | 16:38 |
| CarbineMorpho | ah | 16:40 |
| CarbineMorpho | cheers | 16:40 |
| lubot | <miguel1mx> I've been using LXQt for some time now, on Artix Linux (vanilla LXQt) and Lubuntu. LXQt is stable. It does not break for daily usage. I use a lot the file manager, the terminal and many goodies. | 16:55 |
| lubot | <miguel1mx> If your are heavy used to LXDE you will need some time to get used to, but I would say it is a good time to have it for your desktop. If you have to choose for anyone, you or someone else who wants to get the work done, choose Lubuntu. | 16:56 |
