+ | '''WARNING''' with the above packages installed (I don't know if the culprit is libvte9, synaptic or onboard, I suspect onboard) the x terminal doesn't work anymore. And when synaptic starts, the password dialog seizes the whole screen, so the onscreen keyboard is not available to enter the password. So it's probably not a good idea to install lxde without an hardware keyboard. | ||
