so the command should be ./usr/local/sbin/install_desktop.sh lxde ?

perhaps i am missing something obvious, but

Code:
sudo ./install install_desktop.sh lxde



fails, even if you are in the correct directory, right?

yeah, you are missing something. the command is
sudo ./install_desktop.sh lxde
from the proper directory, /usr/local/sbin

not sure were your second install came from. also check for proper permissions on that file.

For me the command ran but failed with dependencies errors (ffmepg and mpv iirc)
And only in case there where some pathing error on the script i did a:
Code:
cd /usr/loca/sbin
./install_desktop.sh lxde

Corrected the first post ... must have gotten distracted while typing out the instructions. My apologies.

I have Linux from ayufan version 0.6.25 (updated from 0.6.23).
I tried to install lxde, mate and gnome, all the installation goes without errors but after restarting see a black screen. (when removing installed packages, I noticed that the system reported that there were no packages already installed, although there were no errors during installation)
On the newly downloaded 0.6.25 and written to a clean memory card, the graphical environment is not installed at all with the errors of the ffmpeg and MPV dependencies

p. s. sorry for my English Smile

Starting with 0.6.34 Bionic with LXDE is available for download; no need to install the desktop and related packages manually.
