Ubuntu Studio

Show all headers | View raw

To do some experimenting, I slicked my 2012 Asus laptop and
installed Ubuntu Studio. I burned the ubuntu-studio ISO to a thumb
drive and booted to it.

It failed, reason unknown, though there was a command to get a
log. I think it was an issue with dd'ing the ISO. The "Install"
icon on the desktop wouldn't work. I tried running the command in
a console window, and it commenced, but ultimately failed. For
some reason it did not find an EFI partition, is what I think.

Tried again with a different spare USB drive, decided not to save
the /home partition, and things went a lot better. Interestingly,
the GUI was in dark mode the second time.

KDE Plasma looks pretty good. I'm going to keep it instead of
fluxbox, because I won't be using this box a lot, at first, except
through SSH, so the clumsiness of a ginormous desktop is not such
an issue.

One odd issue is the screen locking freezes an SSH session.
Unlock and it's fine. I think I found the session setting to stop
this, but it's a surprise to me that session lock included
blocking SSH.
