Install * Had a look at the papercuts listed on [1] https://wiki.ubuntu.com/YakketyYak/Beta1/Lubuntu * As usual, for an install iso too big for a CD-R, I used Startup Disc Creator to create USB install media. * Installed with no errors, using an Ethernet connection. * Rebooted OK, logged in OK/ Using the O.S. * Did a man mkdir command and got the error message "bash: man: command not found" * Which man revealed that man command not on path * Checked the keyboard for programmer specific keys - in particular double and single-quotes work fine. Ruby * Used Synaptic Package Manager (SPM) to install ruby, ruby2.3-doc * Tried commands irb, ri * Installed emacs using SPM * When editing a (Ruby) text file in emacs, noticed 2 mysterious blank lines between "File" etc at the top of the windows and the first line of a text file. Further investigation revealed that the usual icons that are usually near the top of the emacs windows weren't present, resulting in blank space. etc. * Installed gnome-games (SPM) and it worked fine.
