Lubuntu 20.04.2 is a set of images produced for convenience so that a fresh install of the latest Lubuntu LTS does not require as many updates after install (as Lubuntu continues to release Stable Release Updates and security fixes to make your experience as smooth as possible and to fix any bugs, if you want to help us out with this, see below, we always need more help). What’s The Difference Between Lubuntu 20.04 LTS And This Release? We have left out some notes that are common to all flavors, so we recommend that you read the Ubuntu release notes. This announcement on our official website (, NOT Lubuntu dot net, which is not run by Lubuntu contributors) replaces the traditional release notes we have provided in the past on the wiki.

You can download Lubuntu 20.04.2 LTS on our downloads page. If you are on 18.04 or below and would like to upgrade, please do a fresh install. Note, due to the extensive changes required for the shift in desktop environments, the Lubuntu team does not support upgrading from 18.04 or below to any greater release. We are limiting changes to critical fixes and underlying system changes shipped with all other Ubuntu flavors for the 18.04 LTS release. Lubuntu 18.04 LTS, the last supported release with LXDE, will be supported until April 2021. Our main focus will be on this and future releases. Lubuntu 20.04 LTS will be supported until April 2023.

Lubuntu provides a simple but modern and powerful graphical user interface, and comes with a wide variety of applications so you can browse, email, chat, play, and be productive.

The project’s goal is to provide a lightweight yet functional Linux distribution based on a rock-solid Ubuntu base. Lubuntu is an official Ubuntu flavor which uses the Lightweight Qt Desktop Environment (LXQt). Thanks to all the hard work from our contributors, we are pleased to announce that Lubuntu 20.04.2 LTS has been released! What is Lubuntu?
