I could say that Ubuntu ( most recent version ). But dont use the ubuntu
software center to install lemonPOS, it is an old version. There is a wiki
with a howto for installing on Kubuntu (tested with 9.X versions).
But the same applies to Ubuntu... At the wiki you will find what to install
in order to compile lemonPOS from sources, but also you can use the .deb
package (32 or 64 bits) i have uploaded to sourceforge.

http://sourceforge.net/apps/mediawiki/lemonpos/index.php?title=Installation_Guide
(read all the installation guide, not only those for kubuntu, because the
database needs to be created)

To download the package:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/lemonpos/files/real/


Install the next packages  (not for compiling lemonPOS, just for install de
.deb):
*libqt4*
*libqt4-sql-mysql *
*kdelibs5*
*mysql-client*
*mysql-server*

maybe more packages are required, see if when installing the .deb something
is missing.
