[04:48] <davidhurwich> hi, wondering if I could ask a question about Lubuntu
[04:50] <kc2bez> This is the place for Lubuntu support. 
[04:54] <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
[04:55] <davidhurwich> How can I get the OS to boot automatically when the computer boots up?
[04:56] <davidhurwich> Any advice would be appreciated
[05:01] <kc2bez> 16.04 is unfortunately EOL and unsupported. 
[05:02] <kc2bez> !eol
[05:03] <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
[05:04] <oerheks> download a fresh 20.04 LTS iso
[05:04] <davidhurwich> okay

[21:34] <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?
[21:37] <Maik> https://manual.lubuntu.me/stable/5/5.2/desktop_icons.html
[21:37] <Maik> auctus: maybe there's some info in the manual ^
[21:39] <auctus> ah, right click and select trusted; i see, thanks
[21:40] <auctus> perhaps that should be the default for things that came with lubuntu, e.g. firefox
[21:48] <krytarik> Well, the desktop item you just created by cloning the one from the menu, didn't though.
[21:50] <auctus> i suppose it's difficult, because although firefox is trusted, the contents of the .desktop file could in theory be anything
[21:51] <krytarik> The 'trusted' bit only relates to the launcher.
