lubot<Stefan> @HMollerCl [Bitte, hoffentlich geht's.], Hallo Hans. Jetzt geht's, irgendwie...!?! ... While doing this and that I killed the Efi boot sector.  ... So I reinstalled the system, but not like before configuring manually. I choose override the existing system. ... Then I did apt-get update and upgrade but stopped when it came to "conf09:59

While installing a different "configure grub-PC" popped up where I could choose the device to install grub. I choose /dev/sda and again apt-get update and upgrade. ... Done, no more problems. ...

venik212I am using Lubuntu 18.10 (fresh install) LXQt.  I don't see a language layout indicator in the panel.  I had added two language layouts, and would need to know which one is active10:25
venik212I had removed (puurged) fcitx and ibus, since they interfer with the layout switching in Lubuntu under lxqt.10:26
venik212found it-- never mind.10:31

tewardit's possible there just haven't been any updates for your installed packages.17:24
tewardunlikely but possible.17:24

tewardmrtuxblux: i mean, did it error or not.  (YOur paste got caught as flooding, use a pastebin for multipline pastes)17:36
mrtuxbluxhttps://paste.ubuntu.com/p/x28cG4w5KR/17:36
mrtuxbluxno errors i think17:37
tewardmrtuxblux: `sudo apt update && sudo apt dist-upgrade` in command line will start the process to apply updates, if any exist17:37
tewardit won't upgrade your ubuntu version, but it will install all packages including any new dependencies that're needed by the packages that need updated.17:37
tewardnot sure why update manager isn't showing you any, but it IS possible you just don't have any updates17:37
tewardand with Xenial that's not uncommon since that's been out for a while17:37
lubot<HMollerCl> mrtuxblux: Xenial (16.04) shouldn't recieved many updates at this moment.17:38
tewardmrtuxblux: which explains why you aren't seeing updates. there aren't any updates to download :P17:43
mrtuxbluxoh xD17:44
tewardthis isn't unusual though :)17:44
mrtuxbluxbut youtube-dl is broken :(17:44
tewardi'd advise getting youtube-dl from another source then than the repositories17:44
tewardbecasue that's one of the packages that breaks regularly and is out of date in Xenial17:44
mrtuxbluxhow17:45
mrtuxbluxhow to remove it firslty17:45
tewardhow did you install it firstly?17:47
tewardoriginally*17:47
mrtuxbluxsad that linux cant fix these kind of smallbugs but its great in some aspects17:48
tewardit's not a linux issue per se17:49
mrtuxbluxIt always worries me when theres so much problems xD17:49
mrtuxbluxYes but can you tell me why i get 10mbps on Desktop and 1mpbs on raspberry pi17:49
mrtuxbluxis RPI3 wifi better than a usb dongle for it17:49
mrtuxbluxWe need to get Linux popular18:02
tewardmrtuxblux: just an FYI, *now* there's at least one update, Security related, that'll be available for your system probably :P18:18
mrtuxbluxnope :/18:19
mrtuxbluxThe following packages were automatically installed and are no longer required:18:20
mrtuxblux  libuchardet0 mpv phantomjs python3-pyxattr rtmpdump18:20
mrtuxbluxThats new i think18:20
tewardwell by 'now' i mean 'within the next couple hours' - an OpenSSL security update just got announced :p18:21
mrtuxbluxoh18:21

Guest30846have burned DVD with Image of Lubuntu 18.04 LTS. But on restart, Desk top does not boot from DVD!19:38
lubot<HMollerCl> You will have to change your boot order in your bios/uefi19:40
Guest30846Boot Order id DVD19:40
Guest30846First DVD, then HDD19:41
lubot<HMollerCl> Then maybe your bios doesn't recognize your DVD as bootable19:52
Guest30846so what do i do now19:53
lubot<HMollerCl> I don't know, never use a DVD to boot, only usb19:56
lubot<HMollerCl> You could look on ways to check if DVD is bootable19:56
Guest30846how do i burn the image on usb? and how di I check if the DVD is bootable or not?19:58
lubot<HMollerCl> Are you on windows or Linux?20:00
Guest30846linux lubuntu 16.04 lts20:01
lubot<HMollerCl> I think lubuntu 16.04 has a startup disk creator20:03
lubot<HMollerCl> this should be the tool to use20:03
lubot<HMollerCl> system tools -> startup disk creator20:04
Guest30846yes but only for dvd or cd, not for a usb device20:04
lubot<HMollerCl> ok, try unetbootin20:07
lubot<HMollerCl> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Lubuntu/InstallingLubuntu20:07
Guest30846ok will try, good bye!20:08

joser0913Hi, I'm trying to install Lubuntu 18.10 on HP Stream 13 laptop. The Erase disk and install option doesn't appear on Lubuntu 18.10. It does on 18.04. I want 18.10 because of its stetics and software selection23:23
wxlwell it's a completely different installer23:24
wxlso it's not going to say the exact same thing23:24
kc2bezYou may need to disable swap.23:24
joser0913How can I create the partitions to install Lubuntu 18.10. I tried to do it but it failed23:25
joser0913What's swap? Memory swap?23:25
lynorianjoser0913: swap is what memory goes into when you run out of memory in RAM23:27
lynorianTo turn it all off run sudo swapoff -a23:27
joser0913I'm going to try thtat23:28
joser0913it didn't work23:34
joser0913Lubuntu installer only shows me the option to do the partitions myself23:35
wxlyou might have something else mounted23:36
wxlpastebin the output of `mount`23:36
joser0913sysfs on /sys type sysfs (rw,nosuid,nodev,noexec,relatime) proc on /proc type proc (rw,nosuid,nodev,noexec,relatime) udev on /dev type devtmpfs (rw,nosuid,relatime,size=942260k,nr_inodes=235565,mode=755) devpts on /dev/pts type devpts (rw,nosuid,noexec,relatime,gid=5,mode=620,ptmxmode=000) tmpfs on /run type tmpfs (rw,nosuid,noexec,relatime,size=192996k,mode=755) /dev/sda1 on /cdrom type vfat (ro,noatime,fmask=0022,dmask=0022,codep23:42
wxli did say pastebin...........23:43
joser0913Don't understand what's pastebin. My apologize. I can do a Google Drive document23:44
wxlpastebin.com23:46
wxlor paste.ubuntu.com23:46
joser0913So sorry23:46
joser0913give me a second23:46
wxlor any number of similar services23:46
joser0913https://pastebin.ubuntu.com/p/wVQMKRWKmP/23:49
wxlhm23:50
wxlnothing seems weird there, per se23:50
wxlso what about the manual partitioning fails?23:51
joser0913https://imgur.com/a/sWbXAUz23:51
joser0913there's a pic with the error23:52
lynorianoh grub and uefi it seems23:52
wxl"doesn't look like an efi partition" how did you set that up?23:53
wxlp.s. there is such a thing as #lubuntu-es23:53
joser0913I created en /boot/efi partition on ext423:53
wxloh yeah it has to be vfat23:54
lynorian/boot/efi can't be on efi it has to be fat32 I thought23:54
wxl^ that23:54
wxlit needs the esp flag too23:54
wxltry setting up the partitioning scheme WIWHOUT it and it will tell you what to do23:55
joser0913How much space does it need?23:55
wxldoesn't need to be very big at all23:55
wxl100mb or something like that i think23:55
kc2bezI usually go like 250mb just to be super safe.23:56
wxlnot a bad idea, but i can confirm that 100 is the default23:56
joser0913I'm trying again with  /boot/efi, esp flag, fat3223:56
joser0913I went with 1024 MiB because I didn't know that 100 would be enought23:57
joser0913lets see what happens23:57
