I installed Lubuntu 13.10 from a USB drive on my old Acer Aspire laptop. First, I booted to play around with it. I liked it. It didn't find the wifi (another issue for another day) and there were some function keys that didn't work quite right, but LXDE was nice and I could tell that the laptop was handling it well. (Vista made the cooling fan whine like crazy and Lubuntu barely turned it on.)
So I went ahead and did the full install, wiping out Vista. I got through everything fine and then it rebooted. I had left the USB drive in, so I selected the "Boot from first hard disk" option. It booted straight to command line.
From what I expected by using the USB drive and from what I've read, it should boot straight into LXDE. Is that correct? If that's what it should have done, how can I fix this? If it's supposed to boot to command line, how can I get it to boot to LXDE instead?
