Why would anyone use Lubuntu over Linux Lite?
#26
Hello,
Sorry to update this quite old topic !

I tried Lubuntu on an old HP with AMD Atlon 64 X2 4200 processor and 6 GB or RAM with a 120 GB SSD.
Lubuntu is easy to install, more or less as LL.
But using Lubuntu is a nightmare    !
Small list  of problems I got :
- File manager doesn't permit to access other drive easily
- Local language is not installed for all pieces of software      (LibreOffice, Gimp, etc... stay in english and must be customized to get local language
- OpenVPN is not installed and you will get a real headache and spend some hours  to get it working, it tooks only 2 minutes with LL !
- not easy to create a new item in the dashboard  at the bottom of the screen
- I installed "Numlockx" but was unable to got displayed message telling me the satus of 'caps lock' or "numlock"
- 2 packages managers instead of synaptic
- software updates are longer compared to LL
- .....



LL 4.8 running on Dell Optiflex 760
LL 4.8 running on Asus X52J
LL 4.8 running on Toshiba Satellite C670-14W
LL 3.8 (32 bits) running on HP Pavilion
LL 5.0 running on Samsung RV515
