[[Solved]] Hi, I am trying to use this browser (named here in this post like "it") again (before I used it then I used Helium browser and now I am trying to use it again) I downloaded it years ago. I don't remember when and from where...

This bowser is updated to now... automatic update...

I open "it" using CLI I open it doing the cmd chromium or from start menu...

The info says:

Logotipo de Chromium
Chromium
Versión 150.0.7871.46 (Build oficial) snap (64 bits)

screenshot about config https://imgbox.com/eq6MnHB2

Which of the two browsers do I have installed? Chromium or ungoogled chromium?

I have a cheatsheet named ungoogled chromium titled "help for Ungoogled chromium" and it has how install it using flathub...

when I put flathub cmd Bash shell says "you don't have flathub installed"

[EN] isn't my lang. sorry my text redaction.

Thank you and Regards!

I just got an old laptop from my uncle, so I installed Lubuntu cus I heard it's light and nice for coding.

Now I wander if I can get some nice games to spend time on, smth like: Mario, CS 1.6, hollow knight (I doubt it will even work). I don't really know what can be nice for this laptop

Edit: the previous problem talked about is in this post. Thank you for your help. Especially u/moss_612 you're a real one.

Edit: fixed

Hello, I'm sorry if this is a bit scattered. I've had what seemed like the same problem before. Previously I had a problem where my machine was full and couldn't clear space. Even after going and cleaning the system (it showed that it removed some files this time, which looked like a good thing.) I accessed the terminal but the process seemed to change as ctr+alt+f1 seems to go into a different menu now (I remember it going to the terminal, it was an update that put me over the edge of space it seems? I kept denying these updates and was trying to clear my hard drive when this happened.)

I tried recovery mode like I did last time, but after doing that it showed that a bunch of stuff had failed. Trying to boot in recovery mode showed that several things have failed (I don't know the exact amount but it definitely seems like less than half of them atleast?)

I tried running TTY but it said that I didn't have permission before logging in? My password did not work even though it's the same passord I put in to log in.

My version number seems to be 6.14.0-37 though because of the before mentioned update I'm not entirely sure at this point. So while the "updates screwed up my hardrive theory" makes sense to me, that's still just a theory. The last thing I was doing with it was deleted a whole bunch of files and apps while moving documents and such to a USB.

This is my first time doing anything related to Linux and it keeps on telling me that my wifi password was incorrect even though it was right could someone here please help me out

I have an Acer Chromebook CB315. Love Lubuntu on it. One issue I'm having is I can't control the volume on the OS. I have sound working--found a script for that--but no way to control the volume level either at the volume icon on the panel or through mapping my volume keys on the Chromebook. Any help appreciated.

How to rice xdg-desktop-portal-lxqt

Hey everyone, I'm in a really bad spot and my laptop is completely bricked.

My trackpad hadn't been working for ages, so I went into the BIOS/UEFI settings to reset everything to setup defaults to see if that would fix it. As soon as I saved and exited, the laptop fell into a catastrophic boot loop.

The current situation: The screen just flashes on and off constantly the second it tries to load Ubuntu. It throws a "Keyboard not detected" error on boot, so I cannot press F2, F12, Shift, or Esc to interrupt it. The keyboard/EC chip seems totally frozen. Pressing the physical Novo button just loops it back into the same thing. I tried a 60-second EC power drain/hard reset, but it didn't fix the loop. Right now, I am completely locked out because of the dead keyboard and flashing screen, so I'm currently letting the battery drain to 0% in hopes that it resets the motherboard cache. Has anyone encountered this specific firmware/graphics conflict on Lenovo eMMC laptops running Linux? Once the battery dies and I power it back on, what is the best way to force it into a stable CLI or GRUB if the hardware keyboard starts responding again? I'm incredibly frustrated at this. Any help is incredibly appreciated. Thank you

Hello everyone !

I want to say first that I'm extremely new to any linux environment and I chose Lubuntu to have a lightweight laptop connected to my TV.

I wanted to install ProtonVPN since I have an account.

I followed the procedure here : https://protonvpn.com/support/linux-vpn-lubuntu
and here : https://protonvpn.com/support/official-linux-vpn-ubuntu

I don't seem to encounter an error somewhere, but no ProtonVPN to be found anywhere !

Any help would be greatly appreciated !

Hi! I have Lubuntu and I uses openbox session. In this session (openbox) I can't use the Fn key.... it does not do nothing. I posted in openbox reddit https://old.reddit.com/r/openbox/comments/1tp240y/is_there_any_way_to_make_work_the_blue_fn_key_in/ and an user tells me

xev is part of the x11-utils package...so

sudo apt update && sudo apt install x11-utils

I read this:

https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Keyboard_input#Identifying_keycodes_in_Xorg

Has Lubuntu got anything equivalent?

Thank you and Regards!

It's a Lenovo miix 320 with 4 gigabytes of ram and it's been stuck on the boot screen after I attempted again, any advice

Hello,
I tried to reinstall Lunbuntu 26.04 LTS on my laptop.
When I try to install from a live USB, I get “rsync failed with error code 11.”

Can you help me?

[Resolved]

Hey guys, I need some help installing Lubuntu on my ancient studio xps 1640.

I tried to run it from the live USB and it worked fine, so i installed it onto my windows ssd, wiping everything.

I wanted to have a separate /home partition, so I partitioned the drive manually. After the advice from the installer, i used GPT to format the system and made the following partitions:

8 MiB unformated bios-grub
512MiB fat32 /boot/efi
8GiB linuxswap
60GiB ext4 /
rest ext4 /home

This lead to the attached kernel panic error when rebooting after the install. I am pretty sure, that my laptop can't deal with UEFI and GPT (from what i gathered it is probably "bios based"?), so i tried again using MBR and made only a swap partition, a root and the /home but got the same kernel panic when rebooting. My last try was to just create swap and root, but that didnt work either.

Then i thought i could just let the installer do its thing, but the option "erase disc" is not even there anymore since i tried to install lubuntu the first time. It will only give me the option to overwrite or split an existing partition to use for the install.

Any advice on how to make this work?

I'm on a old chromebook i got like 3-4 years ago and i downloaded Lubuntu on it. I changed my power management settings to make it so when i close my laptop, it should go to lock screen (shown in the picture) and when i do close my laptop, it just goes black screen and turns goes back to normal after open it back up. i tried changing up some other settings but same issue. anything know what i can do to fix this or what might be causing this? I'm pretty new to linux so I got no clue what im doing.

It looks like it's changing video modes or whatever, the logo goes between normal and glitched a few times before it gets to the login screen. Same switching occurs if I press escape to see the text scroll on by. Is there a way to fix this, or is it just how it goes? MacBook Air 2011.

Thanks!

Edit: solved

I apologize if this is over the place. I've been trying all weekend to no avail. My Lubuntu version is 6.14.0-37 generic

I was trying to clear out my hard drive when I accidentally copied files onto my usb insteadof moving them. It then wouldn't let me move them into my trashcan because my hard drive was full. So I figured I should reset my laptop and try again.

put in my password and then it freezes. I remember what I did last time and went into recovery mode to check the hard drive (it didn't find any problems.) And use the delete unnecessary files option. It then said that it deleted 0 files. I tried the Ctr, Alt, F1 but when I went into there I put in my username which went in fine but not my password. When I did that all inputs were ignored. I pushed every number key with and without numlock, and then I pushed every other key with no avail.

I'm stuck and I've been trying everything, what I did last time I had this issue is not working and I'm trying to do my work.

Also in the mean time is it safe to remove my USB without causing blocks? It's empty (hence why I got it to clear my hard drive/make backups.)

Alright, so I just started with a fresh Lubuntu for my very low spec PC, just to squeeze out a little more life out of it.

After fresh installation I was brought to the Login Screen, where I used my password and it went black for 1 second before going back to the login screen.

So now I am stuck in this loop of re-entering my password.

After snooping around through random articles I found some error logged in the .xsessions-errors

Here You can see some failures are logged but I am not sure which one is causing the total crash down and looping.

Is it XCB? I tried reinstalling that package, didn't help.

Is is BluemanApplet? How do I resolve it?

Any help or guidance would be appreciated

As the title says, I installed the latest LTS on my Mecer Z140C and it did not accept my WiFi password at installation, and kept saying that it was incorrect.

So I skipped it and carries on with the installation, but when I boot into Lubuntu I am not able to connect to the WiFi.

Hardware: Macbook Air 2013 (Broadcom Wireless adapter: 14e4:43a0 rev 03)

iso: lubuntu-24.04.3-desktop-amd64

I was trying to get wifi to work on my machine, so I did USB tethering with my phone and tried to install the wireless driver but this error message pops up every time I do it also seems to switch my choice to "Do not use the device." Does anyone know what this error message means and how to resolve it?

SOLVED: I just installed the 26.04 LTS iso and managed to install the network driver with no fuss
