[00:00] your boot drops to the initramfs shell [00:01] i recently got this error on my Lubuntu too [00:02] fsck found a bad superblock after interrupting startup due to long waiting time [00:03] maybe a similar problem but not sure sorry [00:03] so that's focal [00:03] i can't remember if we were enforcing installation media checking at that time [00:03] can you confirm the validity of the installation media in one way or another? [00:04] It's already installed on hd [00:04] that's not the question [00:04] invalid installation media can lead to an invalid installation [00:09] assuming you can some hints might lie here https://askubuntu.com/questions/926738/cant-load-failed-to-claim-resource-1 [00:09] in any case this shouldn't be a lubuntu-specific problem, but more of an ubuntu one [00:24] having issues with mirror lists on Lubuntu Eoan, just realized it is unsupported since July. Does it make sense / is it safe to edit /etc/apt/sources.list with links such as http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/ubuntu ? [00:25] https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EOLUpgrades [00:37] thanks!! [01:08] @lubuntu_bot thanks will try to see if I can find the USB stick I installed from, but it has booted. It is sporadic and sometimes succeeds in booting, sometimes not [01:09] that's all the more reason to believe there's a problem with the installation. i'd reinstall [01:09] (or it means you have physical damage) [01:38] Would i have to backup and restore my data or could I install and keep my user data? I was also trying to access my Bitwarden locked windows partition from Lubuntu with no luck [01:38] oh if you're mixing and matching windows with lubuntu that might possibly be your problem right there [01:39] your data might include invalid data, so backing up isn't the greatest of ideas [01:48] Good thing almost all of it is on windows for now. [01:49] Lubuntu is on a m2 nVme SSD [01:50] Windows is on a 3.5" Samsung SSD [06:39] Hola [08:49] Hola, hello. I have downloaded the latest Ubuntu and I find it really hard to get used to it.

[18:47] https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/RVxNSccSKd/ [18:48] (Photo, 710x418) https://i.imgur.com/eKrBaEJ.jpg [18:52] the ubuntu package is tied to specific versions of libnvidia-compute [18:53] so this is normal than? [18:53] you seem to be using versions of THAT from outside of the ubuntu repositories [18:53] if you would want a version of nvtop compatible with THOSE, you should get it from that outside repository [18:54] nvtop in groovy (in the ubuntu repositories) depends on 418 [18:55] so, yep, totally normal [18:55] however, it may not be ideal [18:55] the lesson to learn here is to be careful when mixing and matching repository sources [18:56] for example, i prefer virtualbox from the upstream source rather than ubuntu. i can make the mistake of installing stuff from the ubuntu repositories that can wipe it out though [18:58] @wxl [ however, it may not be ideal], might not ... … Last night - after a reboot - … my pointer was very slow compared to the mouse … I moved my hand and I had to wait for the pointer to arrive … so i purged all current nvidia drivers for that session … and tried to reinstall the 455 driver … but ubuntu-driver dev [18:58] ices didn't work anymore … nor ubuntu-driver autoinstall … had to reinstall the whole system … so not … might not be ideal [18:59] I have a rtx 3070 … i need the 455 [19:01] (Photo, 710x438) https://i.imgur.com/C5ZN5Lq.jpg I'm going to try a reboot … Hopefully I was able to reverse it [19:02] no harm done [19:02] thanks for the explaination [19:02] @kc2bez [You will have to log out and back in if you haven't done that.], Still doesn't work [19:08] @Fairnandes for those of us not on Telegram, you might want to give some context, especially after two days of silence [19:09] @Fairnandes anyways your OpenBox config might be helpful === Me is now known as Guest68438 [21:05] Hi I have an old laptop (AMD C-50 - dual 1 GHz - Radeon 6250 GPU). I have Lubuntu Groovy Gorilla installed and Chromioum with vaapi so HD youtube videos pay smooth. I wanted check how Lubuntu handles Ubuntu HWE. ..specifically the 2021 March version as I would like a new Mesa / Xorg stack. [21:06] Does Lubuntu 20.10 and 20.04 just pick latest HWE packages once Ubuntu releases 20.04.2 ? [21:11] OR since I'm on Groovy 20.10 do I need to wait for 21.04 for a new HWE stack ? [21:15] The Lubuntu Manual is not clear if "sudo apt update && sudo apt full-upgrade -y" is needed for HWE releases. [21:24] Guest68438, Lubuntu 20.04.2 (, Ubuntu & other flavors too) is built using the 20.10 stack.. so the stack that currently exists in 20.10 is what will make it way to 20.04.2; not the other way around [21:24] 21.04 will be released, then work will occur migrating that stack to 20.04.3 etc... [21:25] HWE LTS release is always after the the interim release, as it uses the interim release's stack (20.04.2 used 18.10's stack thus was released some time after 18.10)... [21:27] 11-jan-2021 is the current release date for 20.04.2 if I recall correctly (using 20.10's stack) [21:28] when 21.04 is released, none of that stack is backported to 20.10; as you'll need to migrate to it within 3 months,,, it's moved to the 20.04.3 yes eventually; but 20.10 will be EOL & users have upgraded to 21.04 & have it anyway [21:29] Ah OK so since I'm on 20.10 I will not see an available new HWE until I upgrade to 21.04. [21:30] yep, you have already what will be new in 20.04.2, yep you'll move to 21.04 to get next stack and still possibly beat most 20.04.3 users getting it (you have 3 months from 21.04's released before 20.10 will be EOL) [21:30] OK that works I'll keep this old laptop on the latest non-LTS release. I keep my modern Laptop on 20.04 LTS. Thanks! [21:31] you're most welcome [21:33] August-5th is 20.04.3's date... 21.04 comes out April-2021.. you'll have it first unless you continue to use 20.10 whilst it's EOL.

[22:52] you'd no longer have this screensaver [23:00] Okay, but would I still be prompted for my password after suspend? [23:01] nope [23:03] So SDDM doesn't take over? Sad [23:03] dos lubuntu make ur laptop waterproof shockproof malwarproof hackproof damaegprof waranty hackgam destroy proof fix screen fix keyboard and add rgb and fre mony [23:05] Lubuntu is great but it doesn't really do any of that.

[23:06] no u [23:07] RyuKurisu[m]: the only reliable locking solution is xscreensaver anyways [23:09] I'm glancing at GNOME screensaver, but it has a few more dependencies [23:10] it's also not reliable [23:10] at least if you TRULY care about the reliability of your screen locker
