However, after booting into LiveCD and select Install Lubuntu, the I found screen just went black. However, the CDROM was still working. I could not continue my installation just because of that. And I don't know what kind of diagnosis information I should post here. Could anyone please help? Thanks very much. ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~lubuntu-desktop Post to : lubuntu-desktop@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~lubuntu-desktop More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
[Lubuntu-desktop] OFF Lubuntu 10.10 is not for old computers
On my lap top Toshiba a105 Lubuntu did not run well, I was getting pissed of so I decided to go back to xp on this one! Last few days I got a new(old) lap top HP pavilion dv-6000 1Gb ram core duo Nvidea etc. The installation of lubuntu fail 3 times. I got some black screen or random error ( I guess it is normal, at least for me happens on almost every linux setup) the good thing is linux setup is much faster them the Other OS. After install, wireless Broadcom did not work but it was easy to install the drivers and lubuntu are running so dam fast to turn on/off. My java applications too. Cromiun start to crash due to problems with flash. I tried many things but the solution was install firefox (works out of the box) Firefox should be standard browser! I did the update an now the lubuntu screen has gone, now ubuntu boot screen is shown during the boot L can I restore it? I want to congratulate the community, now I am having a good experience with linux, I realized that is a matter of time to get more practice. And I have a question.. Is it possible( in a easy way) to remove the standards programs like chromium, text processor, calc etc.. I tried to uninstall but a message ask me if I want to remove LXDE desktop. Now I can watch/edit videos, listen on-line radio and programming. Thinking how proud of myself I am just because I installed few programs via terminal, I was wondering how you guys fell building an entire OS. ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~lubuntu-desktop Post to : lubuntu-desktop@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~lubuntu-desktop More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp

Cromium and firefox are the same thing web pages stay loading forever when connected through the wirelles. It looks like there is some problem with de driver. It recognize and connect the network but is like my internet connection was up and down all the time. Only happens with lubuntu and xubuntu, WinXP connect normaly.

[Lubuntu-desktop] RES: Ask yourself...
[Quote] What should Lubuntu do? I realize that being lightweight is a major focus for Lubuntu and I agree 100%. But keep in mind that the average user will have expectations for their OS and that not everyone will use it only on older hardware (Lubuntu is too nice not to use it on modern hardware!) My main point is that Lubuntu should be for everyone and not just us tweakers and geekers. I want to be able to install it on anyone's computer and not have to worry about what it won't do for them. So my question is what dose the average user expect their OS to do out of the box? Pretend you are putting it on someone's machine. Maybe your mother, or the neighbor who has never used anything other than Windows. What will they expect? Here's my list: - be efficient (most overlooked by most OS) - handle music, video and Internet - find anything on my local network - download and open files properly - let me use it with external monitors/TV as a basic media player (HDMI out) - have basic office apps (even though I don't use them) - allow basic personalization (LXDE's lack of menu editor is a bummer, but I don't fault anyone for that.) Lubuntu has come pretty close to meeting my expectations. I've had to tweak a little bit and I might still be missing a few things here and there, but overall, I love it. The one area it blows everything else away is with it's efficiency. It seems like that's the most overlooked item in all the other Ubuntu variants I've used. Tim [/quote] I agree but I am a very beginner user and I stopped using lubuntu due to networks problems, I wasn't able to find my network places like I do in windows or ubuntu. to a user like me, it is not acceptable have to write codes to find the network or mount a pen drive every time I need. Those things should work OFB. Is screen saver, wall paper and some personalization realy important right now? There is many flavors of linux doing it. what I want from lubuntu is a reliable, robust and fast OS. I don't want my OS consuming my computer resources! Vista already does it. I guess to not have screen saver to save energy sounds like an selling argument! it can be turned into a good thing. you know what I mean?? If you want to know how a regular user feels like about lubuntu, ask me ! I am one..heheh Sorry about my lack of english.. ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~lubuntu-desktop Post to : lubuntu-desktop@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~lubuntu-desktop More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
[Lubuntu-desktop] Network issue.
I decided to left lubuntu and GO back to regular ubuntu. Is better wait then never do! Lubuntu is much faster than ubuntu, light and clean.. I loved but I cant make my usb work, Windows network does not work either. I tried many tutorials but no really help was given. Nautilus almost worked... I thought Lubuntu was the solution but it is more or less like Arch linux. It is just a distro that left many stuffs out to be lightweight, If you need something you must put by yourself. Unfortunately for people like me (beginner) it is a pain in the a**. I guess lubuntu will be even better than ubuntu when few thing work out of the box as network, USB sticks etc.. I wish I knew how to programming to help the community but I don't :( ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~lubuntu-desktop Post to : lubuntu-desktop@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~lubuntu-desktop More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
[Lubuntu-desktop] RES: Network issue.
It did not work. I already have this package! package gvfs-bac I won't bother you guys with my lack of knolegment. I decided to move to linux a little time ago when I started to learn java language. I have no more time to fix things or try to learn how to use it. My focus must be java. I work maintaining windows machines, and it is weird because I find myself just like a kid when I use linux, I don't understand names, commands, expressions.I will be back to XP/Ubuntu and see what happens. When I fell more confident with linux ill try lubuntu again.
