Varianti di Ubuntu con LXDE pre-installato
Se sei interessato a installare Ubuntu + LXDE in un nuovo computer, ci sono distribuzioni basate su Ubuntu, predisposte per utilizzare LXDE. Potresti provare queste, prima.
- WattOS - Adatto per computer datati o con bassa potenza di calcolo (ne abbiamo anche una veloce :) ).
- MoonOS - un sistema operativo con un'attenzione al lato artistico.
- PUD GNU/Linux LXDE version - Live CD installabile, basato su ubuntu veloce e di piccole dimensioni che include già LXDE.
- U-lite - Membro di Ubuntu Derivative Team contenente LXDE.
- Masonux - Ubuntu remix con LXDE che include Firefox, Pidgin, applet normale di gestione della rete di Ubuntu e il gestore di pacchetti Synaptic preinstallato.
- BoomBuntu - Una distribuzione super leggera e super veloce di Ubuntu + LXDE!
Install from APT repository
Intrepid Ibex and future releases
LXDE desktop is available in the Ubuntu repositories.
sudo aptitude install lxde
Hardy Heron and Gutsy Gibbon
We provide packages for LXDE in our own Launchpad PPA repository maintained by michael-r and paulliu. Please add those lines to your /etc/apt/sources.list, or using Synaptic, and add this repository.
For hardy
deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/lxde/ubuntu hardy main deb-src http://ppa.launchpad.net/lxde/ubuntu hardy main
For Gutsy
deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/lxde/ubuntu gutsy main deb-src http://ppa.launchpad.net/lxde/ubuntu gutsy main
After adding our repository, execute the following commands.
sudo aptitude update sudo aptitude install lxde
Done!
Configuration for Login Managers
GDM or KDM
No manual configuration is needed. Just select LXDE from the available sessions listed by the display manager. If you don't see LXDE, restart your gdm or kdm, or reboot.
SLIM
With this display manager, some manual configuration is needed. Please refer to their official document and write your /etc/slim.conf and ~/.xinitrc. The command you should put in your ~/.xinitrc to start LXDE is:
exec startlxde
No display manager, use startx
Run following command:
sudo update-alternatives --config x-session-manager
Then choose startlxde. The next time you run startx, LXDE will be started.
Configuration for locales and input method
- GDM or KDM: Setting locale is not needed. Input method can be specified by im-switch.
- SLIM: put this in your ~/.xinitrc before "exec startlxde" to set locales.
zh_TW.UTF-8 (traditional Chinese, Taiwan) is my locale, please replace it with yours.
export LC_ALL=zh_TW.UTF-8 export LANGUAGE=zh_TW.UTF-8 export LANG=zh_TW.UTF-8
If you need to use input method, add those lines, too. Please refer to the document of your input method. Here I use scim for example. (FIXME: Maybe we can use some im-switch compatible way here. Anyone know how to do it please fix this)
export GTK_IM_MODULE=scim export QT_IM_MODULE=xim scim -d
Minimal Ubuntu + LXDE Installation
- Install Ubuntu base system with Ubuntu Alternate installer CD, and only install a command line-based system (Server without all the internet services). Some user suggested that you can install xubuntu and remove xfce after installing LXDE. However, install from base system is recommended. Ask on Ubuntuforms if you got problems regarding to this. There are some related articles on the forum.
Only install the base system. Then, add our preceding repository, and do this:
sudo aptitude update sudo aptitude install xorg lxde sudo mkdir /usr/share/backgrounds #The LXDE screen saver app requires that this directory exist or it returns annoying error messages.
