| rizwan | hey all | 11:16 |
| rizwan | is Lubuntu 19.04 LTS? | 11:16 |
| rizwan | now that I am on Lubuntu 19.04, should I upgrade to 19.10 - or is 19.04 LTS and 19.10 not LTS? | 11:18 |
| lubot | <HMollerCl> Lts come every 2 years and the latest are 16.04 and 18.04. Next Lts will be 20.04 | 11:22 |
| lubot | <HMollerCl> rizwan^ | 11:23 |
| rizwan | so 19.04 is not LTS? | 11:26 |
| rizwan | I was advised to download 19.04 yday | 11:26 |
| rizwan | to upgrade from 18.10 | 11:26 |
| rizwan | i want an LTS to avoid all the stress and bother | 11:26 |
| lubot | <N0um3n0> @rizwan [<rizwan> so 19.04 is not LTS?], No. The current version is 19.10. the other option is download 20.04, but it is still in development, that will be LTS | 11:41 |
| rizwan | @n0umn0: so 19.10 is LTS? | 12:02 |
| rizwan | to clarify | 12:02 |
| lubot | <The_LoudSpeaker> No. | 12:29 |
| lubot | <The_LoudSpeaker> 20.04 will be. | 12:29 |
| lubot | <The_LoudSpeaker> You should upgrade from 19.04 to 19.10 currently and then to 20.04 when it arrives. | 12:30 |
| guiverc | @The_LoudSpeaker, nope rizwan disappeared awhile back.. | 12:31 |
| lubot | <The_LoudSpeaker> :/ | 12:31 |
| guiverc | :/ | 12:32 |

| newnick21 | hi team good day | 12:56 |
| newnick21 | hi roboter | 12:57 |
| rizwan | ? | 15:59 |
| rizwan | so peeps - is there a way i can downgrade from 18.10 to 18.04? | 16:02 |
| rizwan | sorry my mistake -pls ignore my last post | 16:02 |
| rizwan | so - i now have 19.10, but it is only supported until the middle of this year. what should I do once it is no longer supported? Should I downgrade to 18.04 which is LTS? | 16:06 |
| kc2bez | no you should upgrade in April when the new release is available. | 16:10 |
| kc2bez | the next release will be an lts | 16:10 |
| kc2bez | downgrading is problematic for many reasons | 16:11 |
| kc2bez | most importantly Lubuntu has different desktop environments | 16:12 |
| kc2bez | we won't be supporting upgrades from 18.04 to 20.04 | 16:12 |
| kc2bez | there are simply too many differences. | 16:13 |
| lubot | <wxl23> Or upgrades from 18.04 to anything | 16:14 |
| lubot | <wxl23> Or LXDE | 16:14 |
| lubot | <wxl23> Or GTK apps | 16:14 |
| lotka | hey all, would 2gb ram be enough for a Lubuntu VM thats only used for browsing with Firefox | 16:29 |
| lubot | <wxl23> Depends upon which websites. Some are very taxing | 16:31 |
| lotka | is there a task manager type application in lubuntu? that will allow me to see usage | 16:37 |
| lubot | <wxl23> qps | 16:37 |
| lubot | <wxl23> Or just use (h)top in terminal | 16:38 |
| lotka | thank you | 16:39 |
| lubot | <wxl23> Yep | 16:39 |
| rizwan | kc2bez: oh ok, what will the new release be | 16:39 |
| rizwan | ? | 16:39 |
| lubot | <wxl23> 20.04 | 16:40 |
| lubot | <wxl23> Releases always come out in April (.04) or October (.10) and every two years one of the April releases is an LTS | 16:41 |
| rizwan | oooo 20.04? | 16:42 |
| rizwan | that sounds new | 16:42 |
| rizwan | and like, cool | 16:42 |
| lubot | <wxl23> Last LTS was 2018 (18.) so next will be in 2020 April (20.04) | 16:42 |
| lubot | <wxl23> Codenamed Focal Fossa | 16:43 |
| kc2bez | You can find more information about releases here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases | 16:45 |
| akemhp | Packaged gimp is unstable, crashes all the time with just 2 pictures opens. | 17:53 |
| akemhp | So i'm forced to reboot on Windows and use the Win version :/ | 17:54 |
| akemhp | Maybe i'll try to use Wine on Linux and install the Windows version on LUbuntu. | 17:55 |
| wxl | akemhp: what version? | 19:09 |
| akemhp | wxl, I don't remember, 2.10 ? The one with mushrooms on the splash screen, the version provided from apt in 19.04. | 19:39 |
| akemhp | I installed the Windows version with Wine, but i got freezing :P so i got back to real Windows version... | 19:40 |
| akemhp | Cause i got dual boot, i kept the old Windows 7 in place. | 19:42 |
| akemhp | Maybe i could get a binary tarball of another older version for Linux, that would be more stable. | 19:45 |
| akemhp | Yeah i found the older version tarballs online, i will try that. | 19:50 |
| kryten | Well, I'd rather advise to try a more current version (I think there is still a PPA offering current builds for supported Ubuntu versions), since the one currently in Debian Testing definitely worked fine for me a few days ago.. | 19:55 |
| DEX | I set up a script to start a minecraft server when lubuntu starts but can't remember where it is. is there a way to find out? | 21:51 |
| lubot | <wxl23> @akemhp [<akemhp> Packaged gimp is unstable, crashes all the time with just 2 pictures op …], Could you provide the example files? What sort of system resources do you have? Anything related to gimp in /var/crash? | 22:38 |

| newUser20202 | HI All | 23:15 |
| newUser20202 | I have Lubuntu 32 bit, how can I migrate to 64 bit? | 23:15 |
| newUser20202 | Or how can I try lubuntu 64 bit on USB stick and boot from it | 23:16 |
| guiverc | newUser20202, you can Try Lubuntu before you install; a switch from i386 (x86) to amd64 (x86_64) will require re-install. | 23:19 |
| newUser20202 | I am currently running Lubuntu 32 bit | 23:20 |
| guiverc | newUser20202, you can however use the "Manual Partioning" during the re-instal, select your existing partitions and ensure you don't have 'format' checked, it'll note your added packages, wipe system dirs, install, add back your additional packages without touching user configs or files (unless you selected format) ; the best for i386 to amd64 in my opinion. but of course backup your files FIRST | 23:20 |
| guiverc | you haven't said what release of Lubuntu though.. | 23:21 |
| guiverc | i386 is what/how debian & ubuntu x86 (32-bit) -- debian/ubuntu never moved to i486/i586/i686 calling all i386 (ie. 32bit) | 23:21 |
| newUser20202 | so I have Lubuntu 18 ( not sure how to get exact version) | 23:22 |
| newUser20202 | I want to try 64 bit by preparing USB stick, but couldn't find any tutorial for it | 23:23 |
| guiverc | "Manual Partition" is what modern Lubuntu's `calamares` installer calls the option; it's "Something else" in 'ubiquity` as used in Lubuntu 18.04 LTS; you can use `lsb_release -a` to list install details (or `cat /etc/os-release`) | 23:24 |
| guiverc | https://tutorials.ubuntu.com/tutorial/try-ubuntu-before-you-install#0 (applies equally to flavors like Lubuntu too) | 23:24 |
| guiverc | just use the Lubuntu ISO | 23:24 |
| guiverc | Our manual can be found at https://manual.lubuntu.me/stable/ (stable = 19.10 release; it's images & description will match LXQt or modern Lubuntu, not legacy LXDE found in 18.04 LTS) | 23:25 |
| guiverc | the pages on retrieving image, booting image will be useful anyway | 23:27 |
| newUser20202 | ok | 23:27 |
| newUser20202 | so I am at https://tutorials.ubuntu.com/tutorial/tutorial-create-a-usb-stick-on-ubuntu#2 | 23:28 |
| newUser20202 | On Ubuntu 18.04 and later, use the bottom left icon to open ‘Show Applications' | 23:28 |
| newUser20202 | Lubuntu does not have Show applicatinos" | 23:28 |
| guiverc | the GUI in Lubuntu 18.04 is LXDE so differs yes, it was the "Try before you install" concept from the page that was my intention... Lubuntu has a much lighter GUI (faster, using less memory, but yes different) | 23:30 |
| newUser20202 | nm, I got the Startup disk creator application | 23:30 |
| newUser20202 | Thank you guiverc | 23:31 |
| lubot | <wxl23> @DEX [<DEX> I set up a script to start a minecraft server when lubuntu starts but can' …], This could be in lots of places but looking at threads in top or qps should reveal what's calling the script | 23:34 |
| newUser20202 | Which 64 bit Lubuntu ISO is ideal for Intel Centrino Duo (1.66 GHz, 2GB) laptop? | 23:42 |
| lubot | <wxl23> The latest 19.10 | 23:45 |
| newUser20202 | Eoan Ermine (LXQt)? | 23:47 |
| newUser20202 | also, it is torrent file, how to get actual ISO? | 23:50 |
| guiverc | https://lubuntu.me/downloads/ | 23:52 |
| guiverc | (if you click the Desktop 64-bit bit it'll download lubuntu-19.10-desktop-amd64.iso) | 23:52 |
| newUser20202 | it gives me torrent file, do I have to execute it? | 23:53 |
| newUser20202 | and torrent file is of 62.9 KB | 23:54 |
| guiverc | don't click the magnet part, the left blue "Desktop 64-bit" started downloading the file I mentioned .ISO | 23:54 |
| newUser20202 | ohh | 23:54 |
| newUser20202 | and Lubuntu does not show any progress bar of how much has been downloaded, right? | 23:56 |
| guiverc | depends on how you download; I'd `wget` the file so I see progress.. By clicking I was assuming you were using a browser & I can't help much there (may depend on the browser you use, I don't know sorry) | 23:56 |
| * guiverc wget won't mean anything; it means I'm a strange person who'd switch to terminal & do it there; ie. I'm strange :) | 23:57 | |
| newUser20202 | I am using Firefox browser :) | 23:57 |
| newUser20202 | so I have be in downloads folder and it shows status in the bar below. | 23:58 |
| guiverc | :) | 23:59 |
