mrSnokhello, how to set up vpn gui lubuntu17:14
mrSnokKVpnc ?17:16
jaggiJheloo o/19:30
wxlhowdy19:31
jaggiJI struggle most day to install lubuntu and I can make it only with unebootin, rufus and dd boot into interface with no installation options. It just start lubuntu into some kind of live interface where mouse and keyboard dont work at all.19:32
jaggiJwhile unetbootin installs ok , but there is problem with wifi . One time it is another its not.19:32
wxldid you check the hashes, jaggiJ ?19:32
jaggiJyes19:32
wxldid you check the media at boot?19:32
jaggiJone usb only , I am sure i start right. Now what I did : i  deleted all drives in gpart, make them new again. Reformatiing usb and once again i install using rufus there with checking for errors.19:34
jaggiJwxl:  check media at boot like how ?19:35
wxlwhen you boot it, you get to a menu.. the menu with "start ubuntu".. and it has an option "check disc for defects"19:35
jaggiJI first  set up partitions with gparted. All is wiped out before and new primary 300 mb fat32 is made , and extended partition with logicals for  ext4 , home and swap19:36
wxlon the installation media?19:36
jaggiJwxl:  yes I have that menu exactly when write usb with rufus19:37
wxljaggiJ: did you run the check?19:37
jaggiJi did, and it said it fouund file with one error, then reboot19:37
wxlif you have an error then the media is not valid and will cause all sorts of problems19:38
wxlpersonally, i'd use dd. rarely does it fail19:38
jaggiJi am now writing to other usb with checked option to check for errors19:38
jaggiJi used dd  made in lubuntu itself, now rufus with iso19:38
jaggiJi am now on windows, while i try install on laptop19:39
wxli'm not asking you to check for errors when writing19:39
wxlthta's not necessarily going to produce the same test19:39
wxlyou need to boot, get to the menu, and run the test. if it fails, you need to write it again19:39
wxl..unless you didn't check the hashes, in which case, you might also have a download error19:39
jaggiJi did check hashes of my download images with sha25619:40
jaggiJi can double that though19:40
wxlthen you are having copy errors19:40
wxlwith dd, you shouldn't have any. it's the most reliable solution19:40
jaggiJi could have messed something up (likely), though now i have no linuxto redo it.19:42
jaggiJdd if=<your_iso> of=/dev/sdb19:42
jaggiJthat syntax ?19:42
lynorianjaggiJ: yes that is correct for if the usb drive is sdb19:43
jaggiJmy problems with net are not lubuntu related but general linux, my debian installation couldnt detect wifi either. Most reliable detection i had when i run live after unetbootin19:44
lynorianmight have a problematic card19:44
lynorianI would need lspci output to really help you more with that19:45
jaggiJnow i gotta get a cable, or fix the one i did cut with scissors19:45
jaggiJif i can....19:45
jaggiJbut that is weird, it always work on live version19:46
jaggiJand one time at least it worked on full install19:46
jaggiJtrying again with another usb stick19:47
jaggiJ4 options, I recon to choose check disc for defects...19:48
jaggiJi remember when i had full install and i used log off it looged off to screen where i can choose user and password and was same issue, mouse worked but clicks no effects. keyboard dead. No errors found now rebooting19:50
jaggiJooo neat, it does work now - usb stick then19:53
jaggiJawesome installer btw, i didnt find anywhere else option to test keyboard locale which is important19:56
lynorianhttps://manual.lubuntu.me/_images/keyboard.png Do you see the bottom row  where it says type to test keyboard?19:58
jaggiJyes i can type test it19:58
lynorianor is this 18.0419:58
lynoriando you mean autodetect?19:59
jaggiJ18.1019:59
jaggiJnah just possibility to type and test autodetected(or any else) keyboard19:59
jaggiJahhh misunderstanding20:00
jaggiJi have no issues with it, i meant i couldnt find that option in other installators in past (other distros)20:00
jaggiJthere is a room for improvement however in regard to installation progress, when i hit install now it is like it freeze and very long time passes before i see installation progress pop up usually always past 60%. At first time i was almost  hard restarting thinking something went wrong.20:02
lynorianjaggiJ: I know I am not sure what to do about that20:03
jaggiJidk maybe some delay between isntallation start and user hits key install now , allowing installation popup to come20:04
jaggiJor some lightweight window popup that will run installation on few sec delay. key factor is to let user know installation started - not system freeze or endless loop./20:06
jaggiJif i only know C i coult help :)20:07
jaggiJok installed, restarted , working and with net - great. 3 more distros to go.20:10
