| xu-irc77w | Does anyone know why xubuntu 20.04 forces numlock to be enabled if the device is a laptop and has an external keyboard? It does so in /usr/share/lightdm/lightdm.conf.d/50-xubuntu-numlock.conf, which calls out to xubuntu-numlockx, which calls /etc/X11/Session.d/55numlockx, which leaves numlock as auto unless the device is a laptop with an external | 15:01 |

| xu-irc77w | Sorry, it doesn't leave it as auto, it enables it, unless the device is a laptop, in which case it enables it if there is an external keyboard connected. | 15:04 |
| cimbakahn | Anyone around? | 19:50 |
| cimbakahn | Does anyone know why i am getting this error at install? Unable to install GRUB in /dev/sda | 19:51 |
| cimbakahn | Executing `grub-install /dev/sda` failed. | 19:51 |
| cimbakahn | This is a fatal error. | 19:51 |
| Bashing-om | cimbakahn: Just a thought - the install is UEFI, and booted the USB in legacy mode ? | 19:54 |
| cimbakahn | I believe it is UEFI, and i believe i have legacy turned on. | 19:57 |
| cimbakahn | I just redid my flash USB stick incase that was the problem, but it happened again. | 19:58 |
| cimbakahn | It is so irritating! | 19:59 |
| cimbakahn | I am not trying to dual boot, so therefore i feel i should not have to mess with partitions. I am just using the whole disk to install 1 Operating System. | 20:02 |

| cimbakahn | I am going to turn legacy of and see if it installs that way. | 20:09 |
| tomreyn | that's worth a try. bios update can help, too. disabling secure boot, too. | 20:32 |
| tomreyn | there are also logs you could inspect, to get a better error message. | 20:33 |
| cimbakahn | Well, that didn't work. | 20:45 |
| cimbakahn | I think secure boot is already turned off. | 20:46 |
| Bashing-om | cimbakahn: Might be good at this point to show us in a pastie what it is that you are working with ' sudo parted -l ' from the liveUSB. | 20:51 |
| cimbakahn | I don't know how to create a pastebin from a laptop i am trying to install a new O.S. in. | 21:08 |
| Bashing-om | cimbakahn: cimbakahn: I do not know if 'nc' is installed on the live - but try as ' sudo parted -l | nc termbin.com 9999 '. The result should be a URL back in terminal; pass the link back here. | 21:16 |
