[00:04] That took me to the site and then tossed me a few redirects saying my “iPhone” has been compromised. Nice. Except it’s an iPod touch. [00:04] which did? [00:05] The one you sent. I clicked it again and I could read it. Idk why you wouldn’t just use Raspbian. It’s amazing. Unless you have a larger card or have specific use cases [00:06] the "one" [00:06] i sent two links since you've been around [00:06] Oh, the last one you sent sorry [00:06] and that other one is a legitimate link for sure. you might have some issue with your device, for real. [00:06] or you typed it wrong or something [00:07] I like raspbian [00:07] or a firewall/antivirus that's doing some goofy man in the middle stuff [00:07] a lot [00:29] I just had to tap it.

While you wait, try searching https://help.ubuntu.com or https://ubuntuforums.org or https://askubuntu.com/ [11:43] Hey, I want to uninstall Windows 10 and install Lubuntu instead, but I don't know how to remove Windows 10 from the partitions and give all the memory to Lubuntu. I don't mind if all my data is deleted. [11:45] Norbi, when you run lubuntu installer, choose “Erase disk and install”. [11:46] more details you can find here: https://docs.lubuntu.net/lubuntu_installation [11:48] I only have "Install Alongside", "Replace a Partition" and "Manual Partitioning". [11:48] Should I just format the partition that Windows 10 is on? [11:49] ok then go with manual partitioning and then i'm gonna tell you what to do next. [11:50] Alright, I did it. What do I do next? [11:51] new partition table [11:52] GUID partition table [11:52] tell me when done [11:52] It's done. [11:53] click Create [11:53] I did it. [11:54] size: 40960 [11:54] file system: ext4 [11:54] mount point: / [11:54] click ok [11:54] Alrighty, I did it. [11:55] now click create again [11:55] and tell me what number you see on Size: xxxxx [11:55] 197511 MB [11:56] ok then set Size: 190000 [11:56] file system: ext4 mount point: /home [11:56] ok [11:57] I did it. [11:57] click create [11:57] Size: 7000 file system: swap [11:58] I have "linuxswap". Is that the same thing? [11:58] yes [11:58] Alright then. It's done. [11:59] click ok [11:59] create [11:59] Size: all remaining [11:59] file system: fat32 mount point: /boot/efi [12:00] I did it. [12:00] ok [12:00] and go ahead with the installation [12:00] you are done at this point [12:00] Alright. Thanks a lot! [12:01] no problem, come with a feedback after the installation is done and you rebooted into the system. [12:07] It gives me an error.

Is this the right channel to ask for help? [18:38] @tacocat_ [ Hello everyone, I'm trying to creating a Lubuntu portable installatio …], Yup! This is the right channel to ask. Explain the problem you are facing. Someone will definitely help you. [18:39] @don10 [ hello, having trouble with lubuntu dropping ethernet connection randomly], @HMollerCl ? [19:16] @The_LoudSpeaker [@HMollerCl ?], sorry, I'm at work with no much time. Things that are not DE specific could be more quickly be solved looking in ubuntu which has more community tthat lubuntu. [19:17] That doesn't mean we can't help, it's only that those are problems that people from other *buntu flavos might hace faced. [19:53] tacocat had left before the first response was given here, but had also cross posted to #ubuntu [19:53] and got replies there [20:13] salut [20:13] cineva on? [20:13] hello somebody on? [20:15] qwertyss: what do you need? [20:17] where is software center ? [20:17] in my pc [20:18] I have now installed lubuntu and do not know how to install the programs I need [20:18] what version [20:18] last [20:19] that doesn't help [20:22] Lubuntu 19.04 [20:24] https://lubuntu.net/lubuntu-19-04-disco-dingo-released/ [20:24] #define DISKNAME Lubuntu 19.04 "Disco Dingo" - Release amd64 [20:25] where do I install the programs I need? [20:27] Discover is the software center. [20:28] It can be found in system tools. [20:28] I have not used lubuntu I hope to succeed, thanks [20:29] Ask if you have any other questions. [20:30] tnx [20:30] We also have a section in our manual on discover. https://manual.lubuntu.me/4/4.1/discover.html [20:31] Since you are new there may be other sections of the manual that are helpful.

[20:54] <. .> Hello, a question for professionals. Can I install Lubuntu on a file system other than Ext2? I want to install on F2FS, for the sake of the least load on the HDD, and to avoid unnecessary journaling. What should I do - try to compile my own kernel? [20:55] certainly other file systems are supported [20:55] never tested on f2fs, though [20:57] supposedly it was merged into the 3.8 kernel [20:57] define "unnecessary journaling" [21:00] grub can't boot it though https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/grub2/+bug/1817310 [21:00] Launchpad bug 1817310 in grub2 (Ubuntu) "Backport F2FS support" [Undecided,Confirmed] [21:00] however i can install f2fs-tools and run the Calamares installer and it gives me f2fs as an option [21:02] <. .> I will try in simple words. Maybe "unnecessary journaling" is in ext3,4, but nonetheless when f2fs writes the same files, file system has less structures. … (Sorry for such uneducated explanation. I mean it is like NTFS vs Fat32 of ExFat) [21:05] tomreyn: it might be good to know that it stands for "flash friendly file system" === guiverc is now known as guiverc_t === guiverc_t is now known as guiverc3 [21:06] wxl: it's a HDD though [21:07] tomreyn: well lots of folks still refer to solid state drives as such, just like people refer to music recordings as "albums" [21:09] wxl: i'm not really getting your point, but i bet this is my fault, it's late here and i'm very tired, sorry. [21:10] tomreyn: you're good :) [21:10] ;-) [21:11] to the OP with the silly nick, the short answer is it will work, but you won't get grub to recognize it. you'd have to patch it. <6s$NeB)6De6jgeD [21:11] https://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/grub.git/commit/?id=71f9e4ac44142af52c3fc1860436cf9e432bf764 [21:12] <. .> (Photo, 177x294) https://i.imgur.com/UcNcFg5.jpg what is the opinion of professionals, would it be appropriate to add F2FS option here? [21:13] no, only because it's less robust and vulnerable to 'sudden power off corruption' than ext4 [21:13] my opinion [21:14] <. .> what if user wants to install on SSD? [21:14] MODERN SSDs won't see much 'speed' difference between ext4 and f2fs afaict [21:14] and ext4 continues to be more stable as a filesystem spec [21:15] f2fs that i've seen HAS had "huge patches" that are invasive and can cause issues [21:16] <. .> so for flash cards your recommendation is Ext2? [21:17] flash cards aren't SSDs. [21:17] apples vs. oranges there bub. [21:19] also phoronix has written up a nice comparison this past January of Linux 5.0 filesystem benchmarking [21:19] https://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=article&item=linux-50-filesystems&num=1 [21:19] <. .> ok, memory cells in both of them wear out with time. Some users want to minimize it. [21:20] F2FS is 'okay' but I wouldn't want to use it as the base system installer [21:20] because it sacrifices 'stability' for 'speed' [21:20] and under the hood it requires more than just the kernel to support the device [21:20] support the format* [21:23] ALSO [21:23] to work in the GUI installers it'd need to be supported globally IMO [21:23] by all the GUI utilities including gparted [21:23] which it is not [21:24] and there hasn't been any major demand to have it default-supported so it's not been given that kind of scrutiny or attention by the development teams [21:24] and needs Security Team review for any kind of Main Inclusion which would be necessary for more support for it to be available overall [21:25] so i will let you decide 'which is better' but NO linuxes currently offer it as a default-on-install file system for formatting that I can tell [21:25] ... well, except for Android internals. [21:25] but that's a different issue [21:27] <. .> ok, undersood, little demand for it in the realm of Linux. The question is settled. [21:28] at least *currently* there's not major demand for it [21:28] not that support couldn't be added, but 😛 [21:51] a [21:51] b [21:52] c [21:52] d?
