 Hey
 What usb installer definitely works
 Rufus says it can't scan my iso
[08:00] <apt-ghetto> Then check the hash sum of the ISO file
 What's the hash sum
 And how do I check it
[08:02] <apt-ghetto> https://superuser.com/questions/699014/how-to-make-sure-a-downloaded-iso-matches-a-hash-value
[08:04] <lynorian> Nathanpotato I added a part of it to the manual recently https://manual.lubuntu.me/1/1.1/retrieving_the_image.html
[08:05] <apt-ghetto> which iso did you download?
 Lubuntu
[08:06] <apt-ghetto> 18.04 or 18.10?
 16.04
[08:07] <apt-ghetto> Lubuntu 16.04 reaches its end of life in april 2019
 Coolio
[08:07] <apt-ghetto> maybe you like to install 18.04?
 I heard its less stable
 But if I can get a hold of it
 Rn I only have 16 since I can't get to a working pc
 I'm using my phone to use telegram
[08:11] <apt-ghetto> you find the sums here => http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/lubuntu/releases/16.04/release/
 👌
[08:12] <apt-ghetto> MD5SUMS, SHA1SUMS or SHA256SUMS
 No clue yet
 I gotta sleep bbl
 I am new to Linux and recently upgraded from lubuntu 18.04 to 18.10. now there is a duplicate for every function like light dm settings, kde settings and lxqt settings and all mostly does the same function
 How to remove duplicates?
 Even there is two software updater
[09:58] <apt-ghetto> upgrading from 18.04 to 18.10 was a bad idea, because Lubuntu has changed the desktop environment
 An solution without clean install?
[10:00] <apt-ghetto> why don't you want a clean install?
 Wubi for lubuntu 18.10 still not released
 So only I upgraded
 I meant wubiuefi project
 Since I am new here I cannot switch completely to Linux yet
[10:06] <apt-ghetto> you should ask hakuna-m and not the lubuntu team, because I doubt, that someone from the lubuntu team uses wubi
 Okay but is there anyother way without clean install
[10:09] <apt-ghetto> you can try to uninstall every unneeded package and hope, that it does not uninstall other, needed packages
 Thank you I'll try
 Is those packages with Ubuntu symbol in snap package manager are the only ones that's  important?
[10:32] <guiverc> @jumbalaka sorry I don't use package managers so aren't sure what you're referring to (snap package manager) - can you provide an example & I'll give an opinion  (
 Sorry it is synaptic package manager
[10:44] <guiverc> @jumbalaka - no they aren't the important ones (I see many that sure aren't important), I suspect they're ".deb's"  (ie. normal ubuntu/debian packages, ie. not snaps, not flatpaks etc)
[10:45] <guiverc> I'm still trying to determine that's correct...
[10:48] <guiverc> it could be they are from 'main' (repository) ..
[10:49] <guiverc> from the ones I've looked at - I'm now betting they're from 'main' repository (in LTS terms, they have the longest supported life as canonical supports them 5 years)
[10:57] <guiverc> jumbalaka, sorry I can't find definitive proof, but https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SynapticHowto
 @apt-ghetto [<apt-ghetto> why don't you want a clean install?], I did clean install as you said but while I was 18.04 brightness adjustment didn't work and now the touchpad tap not working. ... When I upgraded from 18.04 to 18.10 everything was working
