(just a bit annoying) Some mouse cursor tooltips have their 'selection point' at an odd spot.

This pallet functionality behaves a bit odd / non-intuitive.

Is there anyone who has managed to run the Lubuntu LiveUSB on one of these machines, or even install Lubuntu 16.04? I installed Lubuntu 16.04 on two different MacBooks (not the 'Pro' version), one 64-bit, and the other 32-bit. That is 16.04 as opposed to 16.04.1. I did not encounter any difficulties. With Lubuntu, I always install the 32-bit OS. But I don't remember if I did a clean install, or if I upgraded from 15.10. My best guess is that I upgraded, now that I think of it. The systems work fine, and the 64-bit machine is even one of my music performance machines. The machine's fan seems to run more when I use Mac OS X, than when I run Lubuntu. I also have a Ubuntu Unity (64-bit) partition on the 64-bit machine, which works fine (it's my backup system on that machine). -- Sincerely, Aere -- Lubuntu-users mailing list Lubuntu-users@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/lubuntu-users

[lubuntu-users] Fwd: Does a default Lubuntu dark theme exist?
FWIW: I found a couple *nice* examples of LXQt desktops if people want to see it: LXQt on Ubuntu: https://intialonso.github.io/ LXQt on Manjaro: https://manjaro.github.io/Manjaro-Lxqt-16.05-released/ Those are .iso distros people can be install in VirtualBox to see how it looks, how it was themed, etc. I wouldn't rely on those as my regular desktop. They're not official distros. Just something community members created.

That makes no sense. *Either* use USB *or* Wifi but not both. The purpose of USB tethering is for the PC to use the phone's mobile data connection. It's not for using the phone's wifi: use the computer's own wifi. -- Liam Proven • Profile: http://lproven.livejournal.com/profile Email: lpro...@cix.co.uk • GMail/G+/Twitter/Flickr/Facebook: lproven MSN: lpro...@hotmail.com • Skype/AIM/Yahoo/LinkedIn: liamproven Cell/Mobiles: +44 7939-087884 (UK) • +420 702 829 053 (ČR) -- Lubuntu-users mailing list Lubuntu-users@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/lubuntu-users
