Re: Full screen

 

Hi Lance,

we are going to be discussing the 5 (so far) variants of installing
lubuntu, from minimal core to such estorics as desktop with no--reccomends.
I proposed 3, someone else proposed a different 3. So we will most likely
document all 5 :)  It will keep those wanting to explain things busy as we
set up the new page area(s) ready to be slotted in when 12.04 is launched.

Our mini-iso install / Alternate does assume people do not have a system to
do a Ubiquity install, as such it is a more of a command line driven
install. But I certainly see no harm in adding some screen-shots into the
wiki area, provided we do not have images so large as to create problems
for people with limited speed / data caps on their internet connections.

Regards,

Phill.
