OK, after downloading and installing ALL deb files for Lcarsde, and also installing the 'Onboard' colors and theme, I logged out, and in the login screen I see, 'Lcars' so I switched to the Lcars windows manager, then logged in, now all I see is the frame and nothing else, where is the menu's, programs, logoff/on, shutdown, etc etc? I can't even logout to switch back to my original desktop. There's not even an instruction manual to get everything running. I had to reformat my HD and re-install Ubuntu and luckily, I made a backup, so now I got my desktop back, and I won't be installing Lcarswm until it's actually working.

Hello @Usalabs, thank you for your report. I'm sorry, you had this experience. What Ubuntu version did you use?

@atennert I'm using Ubuntu 22.04.2 LTS. I even tried it on a VM running Ubuntu Budgie. Using a VM for Budgie so that I don't have to reformat the HD and re-install Ubuntu.

I could send a screenshot, but without an actual window manager running I can't even do that.

Hello @Usalabs, sorry for the long feedback loop. I created new releases for Ubuntu 22.04 LTS in May. Do they fix the issue?
