[12:44] <lubot> <SamuelBanya> Was anyone able to install i3 in Lubuntu successfully with sudo apt get?
[12:45] <lubot> <SamuelBanya> It just freezes on startup when you change the window manager before you login to desktop

[14:57] <haczak> just wanting to let people know that  lubuntu i386 runs perfectly on acer aspire 5610 bl50
[20:13] <scitex59> hi, all.  I am new to Lubuntu.  I am currently using Ubuntu 14.04 on another machine, but would like to use Lubuntu LTS.
[20:16] <mead> hello
[20:19] <mead> Lubuntu is going through some changes. you might want to go with 18.10 or wait for 19.04 for the lxqt gui
[20:19] <teward> but be aware that in 9 months you'll have to upgrade *again* if you use 18.10 or 19.04.
[20:20] <teward> 9 months or less*
[20:21] <scitex59> Just wondering if the LXQt desktop environment will be more resource hungry than the current LXLE desktop
[20:21] <mead> I installed 18.10 by mistake after my storage device died, the layout was the major difference... I went back to my comfort zone of 18.04
[20:29] <scitex59> If I install Lubuntu 18.04 LTS, how long will it be supported ?
[20:30] <lubot> <aptghetto> 3 years
[20:33] <genii> So you should be able to go from 18.04 to 20.04 up to around a year after 20.04 comes out
[20:36] <scitex59> I have greatly enjoyed my experience with Ubuntu 12.04 and 14.04.  However, with each new release my hardware is becoming more outdated.  I may have to migrate to a lighter weight distro soon.
[20:42] <lubot> <The_LoudSpeaker> @scitex59 [<scitex59> I have greatly enjoyed my experience with Ubuntu 12.04 and 14.04.  Ho …], Lubuntu 18.04 is the best choice for you. Works like a charm on older hardware.
