[lubuntu-users] Bionic B Lu - NEXT 18.04 Live Testing . . . sans instructions

[Fritz Hudnut]

to whom:

Took over an hour to zsync the standard edition Lu 18.04 iso and change it
to the Lu-Next 18.04 . . . and burned it to dvd and booted it up and spent
an hour or so rifling through it . . . .  Visually interesting options
going with the "Frost" theme and staying with the "Oxygen" . . . theme as
far as the toolbar and drop down menus goes.

Not quite ready to run an install, I may or may not get there, some things
are seemingly a tad "unfinished" and took me awhile to get passed the
"choose your window manager" window . . . as "X11" was at the top, but
wouldn't select, and then scrolling down showed "x-window manager" and that
seemed to be the only option for window manager, so then why ask to
"choose" a wm??

And, then into the blackness of the OpenBox de . . .but, then the
right-click drop down menus weren't there, etc.  Got that done, then when I
minimized the Falkon window it "showed" it closing to the bottom of the
screen, but didn't "re-appear" by mousing around . . . and finally got the
toolbar config going and added some widgets, and messed around with the
themes.

A few problems showed up that I couldn't work around: adding the "world
clock" widget would not show the time in the toolbar, clicking on the area
would show the drop down calendar, and right-click would show
"configuration" but the time never showed, whereas the other toolbar items
that were open did show there.

"HTOP" wouldn't launch from clicking the menu item, but GParted did.

T-bird didn't "close" using toolbar drop down menu, but Falkon did.

That's it from Lake Woebegone,
