[14:49] <Deano59> where can I find a list of installed packages with lubuntu 20.04??
[14:49] <Deano59> like basic ones like libreoffice (which I'll never use) etc.
 libreoffice is part of the desktop recommends Deano59 https://phab.lubuntu.me/source/lubuntu-meta/browse/ubuntu%252Ffocal/desktop-recommends-amd64
[15:45] <Deano59> kc2bez: just what I wanted! THANK YOU.
[15:45] <kc2bez> Happy to help Deano59
[16:54] <Deano59> kc2bez: you around? what one of those apps listed can cause "not a partition table" ?
[16:56] <Deano59> guessing this? fwupd fwupd-signed
 fwupd is used to update firmware.  … If you could describe your problem, it is maybe easier to help you.
[17:04] <Deano59> aptghetto: 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.
[17:05] <Deano59> the only thing I done different was remove everything in the link kc2bez posted.
[17:06] <Deano59> I tried with the normal ubuntu iso and it doesn't say it (using etcher) no idea what is causing it. --.
[17:06] <Deano59> s/ubuntu/lubuntu
[17:13] <apt-ghetto> Deano59: I don't have any experience with creating isos, but it looks like that your usb stick does not have a partition table.
[17:14] <apt-ghetto> Do you use etcher to create your custom image? Or do you use etcher only to create the stick with the official image?
[17:15] <Deano59> I'm using cubic.
[17:16] <Deano59> from the ubuntu ppa...
[17:16] <apt-ghetto> Than you should study the documentation of cubic, because it looks like it is something you did not configure correctly
[17:17] <Deano59> it works if I don't remove what kc2bez posted so it's got to be something in that.
[17:18] <apt-ghetto> If 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 EFI
[17:19] <Deano59> I don't use uefi in my xubuntu install (which I'm using atm)
[17:19] <Deano59> lubuntu should offer a minimal install insteaf of making you use apps like office etc you're never going to use!!
[17:20] <Deano59> xuubntu offers a minimal install with the mini legacy iso
[17:20] <Deano59> lubuntu? no, why not?
[17:20] <apt-ghetto> It is only one example. The Ubuntu images are hybrid isos, which contains bootloaders for both boot modes
[17:21] <apt-ghetto> Simply because noone has worked on this.
[17:21] <apt-ghetto> Feel free to create a minimal iso and present it in the lubuntu-devel channel
[17:22] <apt-ghetto> In the meantime, you can use `apt purge` to remove unwanted packages
[17:27] <Deano59> apt-ghetto: https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/zhMF34CMn8/
[17:28] <Deano59> it's trying to use uefi. how do I stop it?
[17:29] <apt-ghetto> When 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-ghetto> When the system is booted in BIOS mode, it is using syslinux
[17:29] <apt-ghetto> You should find the configuration in the /boot folder, if I am not wrong
[23:45] <Deano59> under 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...
[23:47] <Deano59> I was sure it was this; https://i.postimg.cc/D08CC3HV/2020-05-26-004710-1920x1080-scrot.png but it's not. -.-
[23:51] <Deano59> pcmanfm --desktop-pref and it says desktop manager not active lol
[23:54] <Deano59> so it is "filemanager" but still can't select a wallpaper. :/
[23:58] <Deano59> nvm! done it. sudo pcmanfm --desktop-pref you have to make sure pcmanfm is the default manager and not thunar... xD
