| UserGuy | i'm trying to set up serial port termal access to a lubuntu machine. I'm having trouble as various 'how to' guides i have found seem to list different files and command and none of them have worked so far. | 01:22 |
|---|---|---|
| UserGuy | i was able to get minicom working and type between the lubuntu machine i want to set up access to, and the computer i am using as a terminal. | 01:23 |
| UserGuy | but getting serial port access to the lubuntu terminal has proven troublesome. has anybody here tried it? | 01:24 |
| guiverc | UserGuy, You haven't said what release, but I doubt many have done that in years, possibly decade+ | 01:31 |
| UserGuy | Ah, so I did. My bad. I've been trying with Lubuntu 16.04. | 01:32 |
| UserGuy | All the guides and posts I have found so far only seem to apply to earlier versions. | 01:33 |
| guiverc | UserGuy, sorry Lubuntu 16.04 is EOL, being a flavor it had 3 years of support from 2016-April (https://lubuntu.me/xenial-5-released/), 5 years applies only to Ubuntu desktop (Unity), Server, cloud, Core.. | 01:33 |
| guiverc | (most of us `ssh` into machines instead, serial terms are rare these days) | 01:34 |
| UserGuy | I didn't realize the support period expired. I guess I'll try to see if a newer version will run on 768 MB of RAM. | 01:38 |
| guiverc | I tested 18.04/18.10/19.04 (x86) using 1gb & higher boxes, never anything under.. alternate installer maybe necessary to install | 01:40 |
| zoan | hey | 02:09 |
| zoan | you know what is the difference between lxqt and lubuntu desktop session? | 02:09 |
| guiverc | at login, selecting 'lubuntu' uses all lubuntu's settings/configs, the 'lxqt' uses the upstream (LXQt) ones without the extra lubuntu/openbox settings (this is vague & simplified) | 02:11 |
| zoan | for better performance and if I have no need for modifications I should choose LXQt then? | 02:13 |
| guiverc | I doubt there is any performance difference between them, it'll alter mostly shortcuts/key-configs available... but performance won't change | 02:14 |
| zoan | ok ty | 02:15 |

| lubot | <TheLimeRunner> Verify the ISO you're using to install using the built in checksum at bootup. Network isn't required it'll just copy off your install medium. | 16:03 |
