* ball writes Lubuntu 19.10 to a USB flash stick.01:13
ballCan I use British English with a US keyboard layout?01:44
guivercball, as an Aussie, I think that's what I do without thinking02:09
ballAh poop.  It installed but won't boot.02:14
ballSuch a waste.02:14
ballAlright, let's see whether it wrote a GPT or MBR on the disk.02:22
ZagonHola a todos.02:23
ballHello Zagon02:25
ZagonI am testing lubuntu with lxqt02:27
ZagonI am very surprised at the performance I have now on my computer02:28
ballI would be testing it if I could get the thing to boot.02:28
ballOh wait, I just thought of something to try.02:30
ballIt'll take a few hours though.02:30
ZagonI am honestly a fan of openbox, but lxqt simplifies everything and without losing performance in the least. impressed, very light and visually beautiful. thanks lubuntu and lxqt.02:34

lubot<tbs61> hello, how to know if i should use legacy or uefi installation?07:18
snnordquistSo...I managed to have some arbitrary things happen to an lxle system based on encrypted btrfs due to not installing new video drivers to match up with a 5.5 kernel. Is there a way to track what the filesystem changes were? So far it's benign enough that I just can't start Xorg or a network card...07:25
guivercsnnordquist, this room supports Lubuntu systems only, LXLE is not Lubuntu07:26
guiverc@tbs61, I like legacy because I know understand it better, but I've read some prefer UEFI seeing it as more secure; but I'm no expert sorry07:27
snnordquistThe videocard overheated and now there are error -110 when IDing some USB devices suggesting ....it's not? Oh.  Ah...what's the L for? Lugetherness?07:28
guivercsnnordquist, our desktop is LXQt, but the first L means..07:29
guivercOne benefit of using an official Ubuntu flavor, or Ubuntu itself is it's support options, you chose LXLE, so use it's support options.07:30
lubot<tbs61> @guiverc actually i tried to ask how can we know if our pc can use uefi or legacy07:32
guivercsorry @tbs61, that's not how i understood it. on booting up Lubuntu ISOs I can tell by the appearance (the `grub` screen looks different on BIOS machines to when booted on UEFI, but that can vary on release..  If an OS is already installed, I'd look for a UEFI boot section, but sorry I'm no expert07:34
snnordquistLavergne, as far as I can tell.  If I can drop into a UEfI discussion, it's a matter of which ROM varietals are extant. If you write a libreboot that adds the other kind, you just changed the answer.07:34
lubot<tbs61> @guiverc [<guiverc> sorry @tbs61, that's not how i understood it. on booting up Lubuntu IS …], it s okay really, thanks for answer ^^07:35
snnordquistHappy answers, all! (Bye!)07:36
lubot<aptghetto> @tbs61 [@guiverc actually i tried to ask how can we know if our pc can use uefi or legac …], With `sudo dmidecode -t 0` you can check this. If you find "UEFI is supported", than your firmware is an UEFI. If you see "BIOS boot specification is supported", then your firmware can boot systems installed in BIOS mode.08:17
lubot<tbs61> @aptghetto [With sudo dmidecode -t 0 you can check this. If you find "UEFI is supported", th …], what a nice tool, thanks^^08:19

guivercLubuntu 18.04 LTS11:31
TechPupoh ok11:31
TechPupi need to go to other channel11:32
guivercI have an old thinkpad t43; similiar specs (pent m, 1.5gb though) and it runs 18.04; it won't run 19.10 or later though as pentium m is x86 only11:32
TechPupBtw can i install ubuntu?11:32
guivercI wouldn't recommend Ubuntu on a pentium M; I sure wouldn't run it myself (expect it to be slow; better to run a lighter os that is less painful to use as responds faster)11:33
TechPupoh11:33
TechPupi will search the World Wide Web11:34
guivercI think 16.04 would run (I'd still not do it though), as I'd opt for 18.04 in Lubuntu/LXDE as I do on mine11:34
TechPup i am back13:14
