XRDP on lubuntu - HP Thin client

if installing lubuntu on older device (like VIA Eden HP Thin Client)  start with forcepae
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PAE
With the cursor on the top choice press F6.
A menu with a number of options appear. The option 'forcepae' is not there, so press Escape to close the list.
Now a string of options is visible, often with 'quiet' or 'quiet splash --' at the end. Add 'forcepae' to the string.
