Nio, Aere, & Basil - Thanks so much for your responses. Much appreciated.
"Can you install Lubuntu without encryption?" * My netbook is running 5.10, but was upgraded online from 5.4, installed from IOS dvd, to created a fully encypted LVM hard drive. * My desktop is running 5.04, installed from IOS dvd, but I had a problem with the fully encrypted LVM drive option, and had to settle for encypted /home only. I hope to reinstall with 5.10, to get a fully encrypted LVM physical drive. Desktop (from Lubuntu "System profiler and benchmark"): * Brand name and model: Dell Inspiron 530s * CPU: 2x Intel(R) Pentium(R) Dual CPU E2200 @ 2.20GHz * RAM (size): 3090MB * graphics chip/card: ** Resolution: 1280x1024 pixels ** OpenGL Renderer: Unknown ** X11 Vendor: The X.Org Foundation * wifi chip/card: I have no idea, and I can't seem to get an answer on this anywhere. I'll try a 5.10 install to my USB harddrive, from the ISO disk (alternate version), unencrypted, tomorrow, after sleep!
