Hello, I am running Lubuntu-18.04.1, 64 bit on an Acer netbook.
I can't get the Gnome "Disk Image Writer" to work. I have downloaded
and checked an iso file. I right click on the iso, and chose in the
right click context menu "Open with ..." "Disk Image Writer". And then
nothing happens. The Disk Utility app does not even open up.
If I go to the Main Menu > Accessories > Disks, then the Disk Utility
app opens up. I can then select the USB drive I am trying to write to
in the left hand panel. Then, in the drop down menu on the top right,
I can navigate to the iso file I am trying to write, select it, and go
from there. It works just fine all the way up to actually writing the
iso to the flash drive. That's where it stops.
All I get is a small spinner going around and around in the left hand
panel next to the flash drive. But the iso does not get written to the
drive.
I can take the same iso file and flash drive, reboot this Acer into
Linuxmint 18.3 Cinnamon, and it works just fine.
So, I'm just wondering if there's something I'm doing wrong here in
Lubuntu? Or, is something else wrong?
God bless,

I think the proper way to do that, is from the menu, select System
Tools, and from the additional menu that appears, select Startup Disk
Creator.
Then follow the instructions from there (you'll have to specify the ISO
you're reading, and the USB drive you're creating).
