    Since there are no lsb modules installed in your machine, you get that message.

    You can install the lsb modules using the command

    sudo apt-get install lsb-core

    After installation, when you run the same command you wont see the message saying 'No LSB modules are available'

    lsb_release -a will display some basic info about to which LSB specifications your system/OS complies with.

    Hope this helps.
