Your forum won’t accept this file, too big!
I’ll try the next one, /var/log/Xorg.0.log:
Also too big for your forum, sorry 
Just pastebin it somewhere and link here.

What do you mean? I know what a bin is, but a pastebin? And how to do it?
Could you give examples with screenshots? As many as possible.
It’s so easy it’s unintuitive for many folks: drag and drop from the menu. Incidentially, this is covered in the manual. I thought that I had seen an issue upstream to add another methodology to do so, but I can’t find it so maybe I’m wrong. Maybe I should file one anyways. What would you think would make sense? A context menu with “add to favorites” or something initiated by a right click?
Yeah, in general, nm-tray is a little thin at best. For some reason, our Release Manager chose it over cmst which is . I’ll let @tsimonq2 explain exactly why that is. Back to nm-tray between ourselves and upstream there are several pending issues to fix:
- support for extra protocols like OpenVPN
- icons
- native connection editor
- Captive Portal support
- general lack of user friendliness
That said,it doesn’t sound like your issue fits. What would you like to see different? Again, screenshots and details would be incredibly helpful.
The name comes from pastebin.com but in the Ubuntu world, we tend to use paste.ubuntu.com. You can just copy and paste there. However, you can also use the pastebinit command to make things easier, e.g. pastebinit -i /path/to/some/file will return a URL at paste.ubuntu.com which will show the content of that file for everyone to see. Then you can use the link here.
If you want to get really fancy and you have an account on our Phabricator and you have Arcanist installed and set up, you can use our own pastebin with cat /path/to/some/file | arc paste.

Hope it helps further Lubuntu development
Hi, since I am at it: what are these strange files that appear occasionally on the Lubuntu 19.04 Desktop, such as this one now:
computer.desktop.V05K2Z
Its properties say it is a textfile, but when I try to delete it, it says it is non-existent and hence cannot be deleted. I saw similar files also on an earlier 19.04 install.
What is the function of these ghosts?
Thank you, lubucub
Known bug fixed upstream and made its way to Debian in 0.14.1-6, though the fix has yet to trickle down to Ubuntu. @tsimonq2 said he was going to get the fix SRU’d, i.e. carried back to all supported releases, but that hasn’t happened yet, either.
Hey, new user here. I thought I’d list a few things that bothered or confused me about Lubuntu (19.04 obviously), in the spirit of providing feedback.
-
By default, the panel has dark system tray icons on a dark background. The theming in general felt a little disjointed, Arc + Papirus isn’t the best combination IMO. Maybe you could get permission to use Antu (plus Breeze) as the default? It seems to be a better fit for LXQT.
-
Discover still has major limitations and the occasional bug, and I had to learn to stop bothering with it and just use Muon for everything instead. I can’t blame you for shipping Discover though, it’s a lot sleeker and by the next release it may be fully ready.
-
Why Firefox? I know it’s widely supported and full-featured, but isn’t it a bit weird to ship a lightweight distro with such a heavyweight?
-
I believe what I said about Firefox applies with VLC as well. Except in this case it should be easier to replace it with a lighter alternative, if you wanted.
-
Trojitá only supports one email account, which renders it useless for me and probably a lot of people. This one is definitely lightweight though.
-
The panel’s launcher shows 4 different terminal emulators by default (Xterm, Uxterm, QTerminal, QTerminal drop down). Useful, but probably a little confusing for the newbies.
-
Speaking of the launcher, what is a “fcitx” and why is there a menu entry for it? lol
I actually really liked the OOB experience, despite these minor concerns. It was well above the average for linux distros, if not as perfectly polished as Ubuntu’s or LM’s. Thank you for your hard work!
Yeah, well, beauty is in the eye of the beholder. You’re welcome to propose something different for 19.10!
Yeah, I have a lot of hope for the future, especially given that its biggest problem (“slow”) I think will be solved entirely by having a progress indicator.
We were originally considering Falkon but had lots of problems with it and decided we need to make a change. I still think we need to revisit this, but one of the considerations was that we should supply the thing nearly everyone would want: a fully functional standard browser. Lightweight is not our only consideration.
Same argument could be made about LibreOffice. However, with both pieces of software, I found the alternatives (especially those based in Qt) to be rather unsatisfactory alternatives in terms of function.
This is a known bug and it looks like some code already exists.
There’s also the --profile option. Just make multiple profiles for each email address and you can start multiple instances of Trojitá, but each with their own profile.
Where are you seeing this? Screenshot might help.
It’s a input manager, which is useful, but not to everyone. We don’t enable it by default, just as we don’t enable Compton (compositing) by default. As for why there’s a menu entry— well, you want to have some way to turn it on if you do want it, no?
@wxl: did anything interesting turn out yet, why my graphic log-in with Lubuntu 19.04 is so slow?

I’ve been busy and haven’t got to research further but I have it bookmarked.
That was my perception too. I can’t give specifics now. But, PCmanfam stood out to me as containing the most useless whitespace/padding around things within it.
On a fresh install of Lubuntu 19.04 with recent upgrades in openbox session there is no wallpaper but instead last rendered windows stuck their images on the background. Here is a screenshot:
#bug #openbox disco #dingo #19.04
On a fresh install of Lubuntu 19.04 with recent upgrades in lubuntu session with default theme connection icon is hard to see:
Yeah this is a known bug though not one with a clear solution. It doesn’t happen to everyone and doesn’t happen in virtual machines. It seems that having compositing (compton) will cause the screen to refresh.
As mentioned there, it is not the intention of Lubuntu to have the OpenBox session, but it’s something that necessarily comes with the OpenBox package, so we can’t remove it without affecting non-Lubuntu OpenBox users.
We hope to fix this and SRU back to 19.04, too.
I like OpenBox, I wish I could use it form Lubuntu. And naked OpenBox fits Lubuntu objective of being lightweight distro too. Please, consider supporting OpenBox sessions in Lubuntu intentionally. Thank you for such a great distro.

my laptop is using 18.04 and I have been testing 19.04 with vmware player for a while, so far so good!

Lubuntu 19.04: Please make nm-tray more visible, it is barely visble in the panel, it works fine but looks like being deactivated in comparison to the green circle of the charging reader, qlipper or volume control.
I cannot show you because pastebin will not accept a screenshot, only text.
Openbox, in contrast, shows a clearly visible WiFi applet (icon, symbol) in the panel.
