Re: Main Ubuntu branding changed by installing lubuntu-desktop packages

When I rebooted my PC after installing updates the other day, the Ubuntu boot screen with the dots changed completely. It now has the Lubuntu logo, the Lubuntu blue-ish background and the blue loading dots. I do not want this change as I prefer to have the original Lubuntu branding.
If someone can aid me this, please let me know. This always makes me feel bad about installing other DEs because it can change stuff that wasn't expected, like this.
It's booting into the lubuntu session because that was what you were using last, before shutting down. If you use lubuntu, login to ubuntu before shutting down, the next login should be on ubuntu's login. Then choose lubuntu session at login.
At least give it a try.

by Peripheral Visionary To install just the desktop environment without all the 'buntu defaults and applications, choose
only the DE,
not the metapackage.
I thought you'd added only the DE since you didn't expect the login screen to change. So my suggestion isn't going to change anything. Sorry.
