I'm not sure if to change or not Lubuntu 18.04 with 81,4% files supported.

Is it better to check unsupported files to decide if change or keep Lubuntu?

@guiverc,I tried "ubuntu-support-status"and I have 81,3% files supported until April 2023.

I made a live USB with Debian 10.09 with LXQt,it's much slower than Lubuntu 18.04.

I can't make...

Support for this version is ended on April.

If I'm not wrong,it's better to upgrade/change version.

But Lubuntu 20.04 LTS is 64 bit.

@sudodus,today Firefox seems to be faster.

Yestarday,I had just installed the new Lubuntu (without encryption) and I changed swappiness from 60 to 10,but probabily I didn't rebooted.

Anyway,I...

@sudodus,I have an other question for you.

Why Firefox is so slow at startup.

Thank you

@sudodus,look at this,after the re-install:


user@user-AOA150:~$ systemd-analyze time
Startup finished in 5.650s (kernel) + 24.095s (userspace) = 29.745s
graphical.target reached after 24.040s...

@sudodus,as I thought I made a mistake,to be honest I don't know where.

Can I use the same .iso to re-install it?

Maybe the system will be faster.

Thank you

@him610,hello and thank you for your answer.

I'm not an expert at all.From your post you don't need to enter any password.I have first to enter the password to unlock the disk "sda5_crypt" and...

@sudodus,it's true,I can't expect too much from this old computer.

Thank you for your kindness

@sudodus, look at this:



user@AOA150:~$ systemd-analyze time
Startup finished in 32.663s (kernel) + 37.923s (userspace) = 1min 10.587s

@sudodus,sorry but I forget to blacklist the wireless internal card,therefore the dmesg correct is this:

What do you think?can you,please,explain to me...

@chili555,have I to write always "blacklist ath5k"?


sudo -i

echo "blacklist ath5k" >> /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf
exit

Is this correct?

@chili555,Hi,sorry if I'm disturbing you again.

I changed the OS and now I need to blacklist the internal and work only with the TP-LINK N150

@sudodus,the dmesg results:

I can't believe how it changed so much.It's always done from the same pc.

I have to read it carefully,but look line #12 and...

If you,please,can explain to me what this big file mean,let me know.

@sudodus,first of all thank you for your kindness.

@mörgæs,on Lubuntu 18.04 LTS I'd use only the default applications with Firefox,by changing the swappiness,which makes it faster, as you suggested on your beautiful post.

I won't install...

@mörgæs,thank you for your answer.

After your advice and,as I said in my post #7,I mean for an inexperienced like me,I prefer a regular version,so I'll stay with Lubuntu 18.04 LTS.

Do you agree...

@poorguy,I'd to say thank you so much for your generous offer but,unfortunately,this laptop model doesn't support no more than 1 Gb.
