Question

I have recently installed lubuntu and want some software to make it run smoothly.Also, after i installed lubuntu, i saw no grub image (it seems bad without image) So, Please tell me how to set grub image

Solution

1. First update your system , so that It will let you install updates.

   sudo apt-get update
   sudo apt-get upgrade
   sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
   

2. To play MP3 songs you might need some codecs , so

   sudo apt-get install lubuntu-restricted-extras
   

3. Open Ubuntu Software Center and Look for VLC Media Player.

4. For Having better Battery you can use tlp.

   sudo add-apt-repository ppa:linrunner/tlp
   sudo apt-get update
   sudo apt-get install tlp
   

5. To change GRUB background , you can use Grub Customizer

   sudo add-apt-repository ppa:danielrichter2007/grub-customizer
   sudo apt-get update
   sudo apt-get install grub-customizer

The OP is using Lubuntu, so instead of installing ubuntu-restricted-extras, you should install lubuntu-restricted-extras.
