Excellent! May I ask, confirmed how? Suppose I want to run the same test vis-a-vis a different desktop, say, LXDE (presumably not very popular, as I hardly ever see it mentioned on the Forum). Sure, it wasn't super scientific, the process that I used was this: 1. Starting with a minimal install in ...

As a test, I did full install without a network connection to a flash drive (accomplished by sandboxing in Virt-Manager). Tested both the Standard Installer and Calamares, i.e., ran the test twice. As far as I can tell, nothing is missing. In both tests, the full install drive worked fine once give...

My conclusion so far is that the installer uses a different dhcp client that the installed distro, and the 'network-manager' package is absent when the desktop environment is not installed, but present when GNOME is selected (although, in this case, the dhcpclient is not running - how can the syste...

Is this a Debian install or Kubuntu?

Since you are running lxqt, there is also qt integration if you prefer as well:

libreoffice-qt5
libreoffice-qt6

I believe that you can edit this file to turn off hiding users:

/usr/share/lightdm/lightdm.conf.d/01_debian.conf

It looks like there are currently build errors:

If you are not using a display manager and just running startx, you can use the following:

The task selection in the debian installer installs one display manager per DE. So if you pick gnome it will install GDM, and if you pick XFCE then it will install lightdm. It sounds like you picked both gnome and XFCE during the install process. Could that be the case? When you picked XFCE did you ...

I am not a gamer either, but I play the following:

Aisleriot solitaire (I only play freecell)
Quadrapassel
Supertux
Supertuxkart
Oolite (Which is inspired by the 8-bit classic Elite)

Not sure about that one.

You can switch back to lightdm by using the following commmand as root:
It should prompt you to pick which display manager to use as default.

If you want to read up on display managers, here is a wiki article:

I believe that it is possible to reset a forgotten root password even if it is disabled:

According to the package description of light-locker, it requires lightdm to work, that is probably why light-locker has a hard dependency on lightdm:

The debian wiki has an article on it, perhaps this might be useful:

It sounds like it could be this:

I get some hits when I search for "PCIE `AER: Corrected error received`"

Here is the first one:

FYI, if you are looking for an alternative to using grub, systemd-boot might be an option. It is simpler than grub, not sure how it compares to lilo though, I haven't ever used lilo. It is also limited to only supporting EFI systems. The systemd-boot package in bookworm auto configures itself during...

It looks like it is also a recommends for task-xfce-desktop.

Yes, normally during the xfce install the xfce4-terminal package gets installed.
