Hi Julien, I've had a chance to have a chat with "Mr Grub" (Dave Stan, who writes up and maintains the grub community documentation etc.) A brief summary of our chat is..
(15:12:32) drs305_: phillw: As far as I've seen, lubuntu is the only one that doesn't ship os-prober. It's ridiculous and I have no idea why they didn't include it. (15:13:28) drs305_: "Oh, I'm new. I can't find Windows. I know - I'll install os-prober and that will find it. Good thing I knew that...." Such calls are also hitting the main forum area, could I suggest that we include it. It is covered on https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Lubuntu/CommonIssuesalong with the gvfs-backends one, but they are causing support queries to be raised. Regards, Phill.
