Deano59where can I find a list of installed packages with lubuntu 20.04??14:49
Deano59like basic ones like libreoffice (which I'll never use) etc.14:49
lubot<kc2bez> libreoffice is part of the desktop recommends Deano59 https://phab.lubuntu.me/source/lubuntu-meta/browse/ubuntu%252Ffocal/desktop-recommends-amd6414:55
Deano59kc2bez: just what I wanted! THANK YOU.15:45
kc2bezHappy to help Deano5915:45
Deano59kc2bez: you around? what one of those apps listed can cause "not a partition table" ?16:54
Deano59guessing this? fwupd fwupd-signed16:56
lubot<aptghetto> fwupd is used to update firmware.  … If you could describe your problem, it is maybe easier to help you.17:03
Deano59aptghetto: I'm creating a custom iso without libreoffice etc with cubic, I try and "write" the image to a USB and it says the image isn't bootable and doesn't contain a partition image.17:04
Deano59the only thing I done different was remove everything in the link kc2bez posted.17:05
Deano59I tried with the normal ubuntu iso and it doesn't say it (using etcher) no idea what is causing it. --.17:06
Deano59s/ubuntu/lubuntu17:06
apt-ghettoDeano59: I don't have any experience with creating isos, but it looks like that your usb stick does not have a partition table.17:13
apt-ghettoDo you use etcher to create your custom image? Or do you use etcher only to create the stick with the official image?17:14
Deano59I'm using cubic.17:15
Deano59from the ubuntu ppa...17:16
apt-ghettoThan you should study the documentation of cubic, because it looks like it is something you did not configure correctly17:16
Deano59it works if I don't remove what kc2bez posted so it's got to be something in that.17:17
apt-ghettoIf you have created a stick with your custom image, you can check the content of the disk with the file manager. If you have a UEFI system, it must contain a folder called EFI17:18
Deano59I don't use uefi in my xubuntu install (which I'm using atm)17:19
Deano59lubuntu should offer a minimal install insteaf of making you use apps like office etc you're never going to use!!17:19
Deano59xuubntu offers a minimal install with the mini legacy iso17:20
Deano59lubuntu? no, why not?17:20
apt-ghettoIt is only one example. The Ubuntu images are hybrid isos, which contains bootloaders for both boot modes17:20
apt-ghettoSimply because noone has worked on this.17:21
apt-ghettoFeel free to create a minimal iso and present it in the lubuntu-devel channel17:21
apt-ghettoIn the meantime, you can use `apt purge` to remove unwanted packages17:22
Deano59apt-ghetto: https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/zhMF34CMn8/17:27
Deano59it's trying to use uefi. how do I stop it?17:28
apt-ghettoWhen the system is booted in UEFI mode, then Grub is used, so it is no surprise that the config contains some EFI related stuff.17:29
apt-ghettoWhen the system is booted in BIOS mode, it is using syslinux17:29
apt-ghettoYou should find the configuration in the /boot folder, if I am not wrong17:29

Deano59under lxsession and "desktop manager" what is the default in 18.04? I changed it and want to change it back. I have no Desktop wallpaper...23:45
Deano59I was sure it was this; https://i.postimg.cc/D08CC3HV/2020-05-26-004710-1920x1080-scrot.png but it's not. -.-23:47
Deano59pcmanfm --desktop-pref and it says desktop manager not active lol23:51
Deano59so it is "filemanager" but still can't select a wallpaper. :/23:54
Deano59nvm! done it. sudo pcmanfm --desktop-pref you have to make sure pcmanfm is the default manager and not thunar... xD23:58
