davidhurwich | hi, wondering if I could ask a question about Lubuntu | 04:48 |
---|---|---|
kc2bez | This is the place for Lubuntu support. | 04:50 |
davidhurwich | I installed Lubuntu 16.04 on an older HP laptop. The installation went through, but when the computer boots or reboots I get a message that states “No bootable image found, notebook will be shutdown” The laptop then shuts down | 04:54 |
davidhurwich | When I turn on the computer and go into Boot Option I can run it until an option marked Ubuntu | 04:54 |
davidhurwich | How can I get the OS to boot automatically when the computer boots up? | 04:55 |
davidhurwich | Any advice would be appreciated | 04:56 |
kc2bez | 16.04 is unfortunately EOL and unsupported. | 05:01 |
kc2bez | !eol | 05:02 |
ubottu | End-Of-Life is when security updates and support for an Ubuntu release stop. Make sure to update Ubuntu before it goes EOL so you get updates promptly for newly-discovered security vulnerabilities. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EOL and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases for more info. Looking to upgrade from an EOL release? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EOLUpgrades | 05:02 |
davidhurwich | is there a way to update the OS for Lubuntu without wiping the hard drive clean? | 05:03 |
oerheks | no, not for 16.04 | 05:03 |
oerheks | download a fresh 20.04 LTS iso | 05:04 |
davidhurwich | okay | 05:04 |

auctus | if i drag an icon from the "start menu" (or whatever its called) to the desktop to create a shortcut, and then I click the shortcut, it says "This file seems to be a desktop entry. What do you want to do with it? Open, Execute, Cancel | 21:34 |
auctus | also it has a little (!) icon on it | 21:34 |
auctus | how do i make uh, normal desktop icons that just open when you click them? | 21:34 |
Maik | https://manual.lubuntu.me/stable/5/5.2/desktop_icons.html | 21:37 |
Maik | auctus: maybe there's some info in the manual ^ | 21:37 |
auctus | ah, right click and select trusted; i see, thanks | 21:39 |
auctus | perhaps that should be the default for things that came with lubuntu, e.g. firefox | 21:40 |
krytarik | Well, the desktop item you just created by cloning the one from the menu, didn't though. | 21:48 |
auctus | i suppose it's difficult, because although firefox is trusted, the contents of the .desktop file could in theory be anything | 21:50 |
krytarik | The 'trusted' bit only relates to the launcher. | 21:51 |
