| ericjmorey_ | I'm considering an upgrade to 19.10. Currently using 18.04 LTS. I've heard that LXQt has been significantly improved. | 07:13 |
| guiverc | ericjmorey_, fyi: 18.04 LTS to 18.10+ (LXDE -> LXQt) upgrades are not supported, "The most major and notable problem is that upgrading Lubuntu from 18.04 to 18.10 causes a fair amount of issues. Therefore, we are not officially supporting this upgrade path at this time, however we have prepared a page in the Lubuntu Manual which can help address the problems that arise after the upgrade." https://lubuntu.me/cosmic-released/ (they are | 07:17 |
| guiverc | possible yes; but problems can arise) .. I really like LXQt myself | 07:17 |
| ericjmorey_ | I'm considering a clean install as part of my "get your act together and make proper backups" campaign | 07:24 |

| ericjmorey_ | it's been a while. is Rufus still recommened for creating a bootable live USB? | 07:26 |
| guiverc | I've only ever written an ISO from GNU/Linux so have never used Rufus - this page of Manual has info on writing ISOs - https://manual.lubuntu.me/stable/1/1.2/booting_the_image.html (writing/burning the image section) | 07:27 |
| guiverc | (it has info on writing for windows, mac & of course GNU/Linux) | 07:29 |
| ericjmorey_ | cool. I'll probably use that. | 07:38 |

| guiverc | @ctisme it's `nm-tray` on my Lubuntu (20.04) but it's part of 'Status tray' -- https://manual.lubuntu.me/stable/3/3.1/3.1.5/nm-tray.html | 10:32 |

| billd1973 | good morning all. lubuntu 18.04 fresh install asus 1001P all is well except keyboard and other minor function issues | 13:08 |
| billd1973 | no left ctrl no backspace no hyphen/underscore missing about half of my F# keys particularly F1 F3 F5 F7 F11 F12. hard to edit anything. | 13:10 |
| billd1973 | have been trying to flash bios but for some reason its not recognizing the usb stick when I enter the flash utility (ALT+F2) If I plug in a full size keyboard everything on it works | 13:11 |
| billd1973 | added GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash acpi_osi=Linux" and ran sudo update-grub but it made no difference on the local keyboards functionality | 13:15 |
| billd1973 | does the usb stick with the update ROM need to be "bootable" to be recognized by the bios? | 13:20 |
| lubot | <The_LoudSpeaker> @billd1973 [<billd1973> good morning all. lubuntu 18.04 fresh install asus 1001P all is wel …], Check keyboard layout in settings. | 13:37 |
