Chapter 1.1 Retrieving the image
=================================
Before you install Lubuntu, you need to retrieve the correct image. Lubuntu supports AMD64 CPU types also known as 64-bit with a new version every six months (supported for nine months), and every two years being a long term support release (supported for three years). Lubuntu 22.04 is a Long Term Support release supported until 2025. Lubuntu 23.10 is supported until July 2024.
Before you install Lubuntu, you need to retrieve the correct image. Lubuntu supports AMD64 CPU types also known as 64-bit with a new version every six months (supported for nine months), and every two years being a long term support release (supported for three years). Lubuntu 24.04 is a Long Term Support release supported until 2027. Lubuntu 24.04 is supported until April 2024.
LTS vs. Regular Releases
------------------------
Lubuntu offers two types of releases. The **Long Term Support** release, or the **LTS**, is the release recommended for most users. It is supported for three years after the release date and does not contain new features. Throughout the course of the cycle, the Ubuntu Kernel Team will deliver **Hardware Enablement** updates, or **HWE** updates, to Lubuntu via Linux kernel updates. Previously, Lubuntu used **LXDE** but since 18.10 it has used **LXQt**. Lubuntu 20.04 is the First **Long Term Support** release which uses the more modern **LXQt** desktop environment.

For users looking to try new features every six months at the expense of the support cycle length, Lubuntu offers **interim releases**, or **regular releases**. These releases, while they are considered stable, are testing grounds for major, new features which will be rolled into the LTS release. Users of the regular releases are typically enthusiasts and somewhat more experienced users looking for a fresher experience.
**It is extremely important that if you choose this path, you upgrade to each successive regular release shortly after it comes out.** If you are not comfortable doing this, you should consider using the LTS release instead.
About four months after a new LTS release comes and every 6 months thereafter an **LTS Point Release** is realeased to support new hardware and fewer updates to download with the longer support term of an LTS realease. LTS point releases are released every August and Feburary. Each LTS point release is called 24.04.1 is the first point release for the 24.04 point release.

Chapter 3.1.8 SDDM configuration
================================
SDDM is the default display manager that shows up when you first log in to Lubuntu or logout or choose to another session. There is no graphical application to do this currently.
Usage
------
If you have autologin enabled and want to disable autologin open the file /etc/sddm.conf as root. To do this run
.. code::
lxqt-sudo featherpad
and open /etc/sddm.conf. Then to disable autologin remove the entire line [Autologin].
To test your SDDM configuration and make sure it is a valid one so you can log in run
.. code::
sddm-greeter --test-mode
To change the picture for your user when you login simply copy the file you want as your user picture to in your home folder with the name .face.icon .
If you want to install other themes for sddm in Muon or from the command line search for packages that start their name with sddm-theme. The theme will be stored in /usr/share/sddm/theme/. To test and see what this new theme looks like run
.. code::
sddm-greeter --test-mode --theme /path/to/theme
from the command line. To set this new theme as your default theme for sddm see alternatives in chapter 3.2.17 and update the sddm-ubuntu-theme group of alternatives. From the command line to switch this setting you can run
.. code::
sudo update-alternatives --config sddm-ubuntu-theme
from the command line. To add a new background for a particular theme copy that image into the /usr/share/sddm/theme/ folder as root. Then in your theme edit the file theme.conf as root and change the line background= with the path to your image. To edit theme.conf as root run
.. code::
sudo nano /usr/share/sddm/themes/lubuntu/theme.conf
However to copy the image file since this is not in your home system copying and saving a background to this folder will require root permissions as well.
