Thanks for that code. No subtitles. But error:

Guvcview saves video files as mkv by default. How do I change this to another format? Thank you.

Here is today's. Looks like docker is a big contributor. In that case I'll have to live with it...

Ah... Thanks. No I don't want to do that... cannot deal with the hassle of setting up my computer all over again for a while. But what about if I just install the LXDE desktop alongside LXQT in order...

I used Lubuntu 18.04 up until a couple of months ago, when I freshly installed Lubuntu 20.04. I notice it is considerably slower. For example, start up takes ages after logging in:

@poorguy Thank you! I may well do that. I see it is an .iso file. How do I install it? Also, what happens then to my current desktop environment? Can I keep it to compare? How do I choose which...

It can be maximized but the buttons are still below the edge of my screen. Screen resolution is 1366x768. It's a normal laptop... I cannot imagine they would have designed the window not to fit a...

Hi,

In Lubuntu 20.04 some windows (e.g. print window) are too tall for the screen, meaning the OK or Cancel buttons at the bottom are hidden form view. I know I can grab the window with ALT and...

I am afraid I do not know what journal logs and dmesg are, where to find them or what to look for.

OK, I take all your points (on the chin). It's still a bug that on my system Lubuntu 20.04 takes up to 10 seconds to respond after I have typed in my login password, and that some software (like...

Sure. Please could you tell me how I can get that information with a terminal command?

No, what's the reasoning?

Hi,

I have no idea what gtk2, gtk3, Qt5, Razor-Qt are and to be honest I don't see any reason why I should know. If I am not mistaken Ubuntu was designed to make Linux accessible to people like me...

@ajgreeny Thank you for your response and suggestion. I'll bear with it for now because I don't want the trouble of setting up a new system all over again right now. As said, I'll try Mint next time....

@Autodave Thanks for your response. Just complaining actually! Or to be less facetious, just waving a flag at the developers, if they're watching. It is a general complaint. Lubuntu 20.04 is slow and...

Lubuntu just got worse. I hope developers keep an eye on these forums to glean some feedback. I would like to ask them, "Why did you take a nice, lightweight, functional system and make it bloated,...

For anyone else in the same situation...

I needed to download a driver.

Wondering why no replies (except my own!). I have looked at other people's questions about bluetooth problems and it seems few people find help here. Does nobody in here know anything about bluetooth?

Perhaps this will help:

No takers, really? Come on guys, there must be some Ubuntu magician/guru out there who has come up against this kind of thing before... Please...

Hello,

@oldfred Thank you. I have turned off Windows fast start up. UEFI secure boot is off. There is still no boot loader screen. I am not sure what to do with the rest of the information you have provided.
