| phillw | hi Mossyfunk | 00:45 |
| Mossyfunk | hello =) | 00:46 |
| phillw | Mossyfunk: pop over to #lubuntu-offtopic :) | 00:46 |
| Mossyfunk | already there =) | 00:46 |
| Mossyfunk | srry got exited | 00:46 |
| highvoltage | Mossyfunk: I installed Lubuntu earlier this week and was also very impressed :) | 01:04 |
| phillw | hiyas highvoltage, do join us on #lubuntu-offtopic | 01:06 |
| Mossyfunk | hey highvoltage, yeah mate come over =) | 01:07 |
| highvoltage | ok, I won't autojoin it since I'm already in way too many channels, but I'll hang out a bit :) | 01:09 |
| Mossyfunk | I have lubuntu 10.04 on a bootable flash drive but cant boot from it..... is there a way to install from running another live cd? | 03:40 |
| head_victim | Is there a place I can download a Lubuntu 10.10 ISO anywhere? I realise the beta2 was taken down for space reasons so I don't mind an older one if it's available. | 10:48 |
| bioterror | head_victim, torrent should work | 11:06 |
| head_victim | bioterror: ah k, I'll look into it then. Any suggestions for torrent program to use? I've never used torrents before. | 11:07 |
| bioterror | for which operating system | 11:08 |
| head_victim | Ubuntu | 11:08 |
| bioterror | you should have transmission by default | 11:09 |
| head_victim | bioterror: cheers, not as hard as I anticipated. My local mirror doesn't carry lubuntu is all. | 11:11 |
| bioterror | glad I managed to help you out | 11:12 |
| leszek | hi | 14:02 |
| KukuNut | lubuntu ?day to go? | 15:13 |
| OwaisL | hi, I am trying to install lubuntu 10.10 beta2, but I can't start the installer from live cd. It is asking for root password. | 15:40 |
| leszek | OwaisL: try to start with sudo from within the terminal | 15:41 |
| leszek | it shouldn't ask for a password as there is no one set | 15:41 |
| OwaisL | and that would be sudo ubiquity-gtk | 15:41 |
| OwaisL | ? | 15:41 |
| leszek | I think so | 15:42 |
| zer067 | Hi to everyone | 17:05 |
| Tir_Eoghan | uh oh, think I'm officially breaking my os hehe | 18:05 |
| nothingspecial | Mark76: I see you got my message :) | 18:44 |
| Mark76 | Yeah, I did. Thanks :) | 18:45 |
| nothingspecial | Mark76: Sorry I missed you | 18:45 |
| Mark76 | No problem | 18:46 |
| Mark76 | So what brings you to this room? | 18:49 |
| nothingspecial | Mark76: Just because I have lubuntu on one of my boxes | 18:50 |
| Mark76 | Do you swap openbox for something snazzier too? | 18:51 |
| nothingspecial | No | 18:51 |
| nothingspecial | I kind of like it, plus I have a very heavily edited rc.xml | 18:52 |
| Mark76 | Fair enough | 18:52 |
| Mark76 | I find it a bit too basic | 18:52 |
| nothingspecial | As you know, I have full blown gnome as well. But it runs very well on my netbook | 18:53 |
| Mark76 | That's cool | 18:53 |
| Mark76 | What specs does your netbook have? | 18:53 |
| nothingspecial | I tried it because someone was having difficulty in a forum I moderate... and I like it | 18:54 |
| Mark76 | Gnome? | 18:54 |
| nothingspecial | 1gig ram, and one of those atom things that is going to break anytime soon | 18:55 |
| nothingspecial | No lubuntu | 18:55 |
| Mark76 | Oh right | 18:55 |
| Mark76 | I have 1 gig of RAM too | 18:55 |
| Mark76 | And I'm on a desktop :( | 18:55 |
| nothingspecial | I have various old and broken pcs that do jobs for me. Four of them cost a combined £20 | 18:56 |
| nothingspecial | pcs = pc/netbooks | 18:57 |
| Mark76 | A thousand pounds!? It's outrageous. I shan't pay it | 18:57 |
| nothingspecial | ha ha | 18:57 |
| Mark76 | God, I love that show | 18:57 |
| Mark76 | And I'm way outside the target demographic | 18:58 |
| nothingspecial | Are you very old or very young? | 18:58 |
| Mark76 | I'm 44 | 18:58 |
| Mark76 | But good comedy is good comedy no matter what time of day it's broadcast | 18:59 |
| nothingspecial | Your only 9 years older than me, I though you were going to say 76 | 18:59 |
| Mark76 | Heh | 18:59 |
| Mark76 | No | 18:59 |
| nothingspecial | Can`t beat Faulty Towers in my book | 18:59 |
| nothingspecial | got to go | 19:00 |
| Mark76 | K | 19:00 |
| Mark76 | Me too | 19:00 |
| Mark76 | Time to swap DEs again | 19:01 |

| mmaksimov | #join #lubuntu-offtopic | 20:38 |
| semitones | is there such a channel? | 20:52 |
| semitones | guess there is :P | 20:53 |
| semitones | I thought lubuntu was going to be official for 10.10. Did they decide depending on the official repos was too much hassle? | 20:53 |
| mmaksimov | ughm, I believe lubuntu just couldn't get into schedule for being official in 10.10. It is still a goal, but probably for 11.04 cycle ;) | 21:05 |
| mark76 | What are the chances? | 21:08 |
| mmaksimov | not sure, you may ask on the maillist or wait until Julien Lavergne appears here on the channel | 21:10 |
| === lubuntu is now known as gnubuntu | ||
| mmaksimov | personally, I'm quite comfortable with setting up several PPA-only packages.... however, I haven't yet switched to lubuntu on my "working" machine... | 21:11 |
| mark76 | Probably best not to for now | 21:21 |
| mmaksimov | why? the only feature I actually miss at the moment is locking the system when restoring from suspend/hibernate | 21:25 |
| mark76 | Well if the developers don't think it's ready to become an official buntu | 21:27 |
| mmaksimov | er.... the developers of which component? | 21:29 |
| mark76 | Ubuntu | 21:31 |
| mmaksimov | can't remember anything "official" regarding lubuntu being (not) ready... | 21:33 |
| mark76 | Okay | 21:34 |

| Tir_Eoghan | so lubuntu 10.10 is getting released in two days right? | 23:23 |
| phillw | Tir_Eoghan: lubuntu can run a dayor so behind, as it cannot be built until the ubuntu release comes out. | 23:27 |
| Tir_Eoghan | phillw, ah, good to know | 23:28 |
| Tir_Eoghan | phillw, thanks for giving me all the info and confidence to try lubuntu. Finally have 10.04 installed and it runs beautifully.. well that is until I installed flash, but thats kind of expected *grin* | 23:28 |
| phillw | lol, flash is a problem accross the entire system. with 10.10 comes our own set of restricted extras which include flash etc. | 23:29 |
| Tir_Eoghan | flash is a problem in windows too.. | 23:30 |
| Tir_Eoghan | I installed it then started getting the old familiar flash errors in websites.. and remembered what it was like, at least when flash crashes in this system it doesn't take down the whole os. just itself | 23:31 |
| Tir_Eoghan | still, I can't wait to upgrade and remove flash entirely.. | 23:31 |
| Tir_Eoghan | installed it as an experiment to see if my puter could watch streaming video on this light of a os, naturally doesn't matter how light the os is, flash is just a flawed program | 23:32 |
| phillw | Tir_Eoghan: you-tube are running a trial with html5, which chromium supports. no need for flash at all :) | 23:34 |
| Tir_Eoghan | phillw, ooh, nice.. That will be a good improvement.. now if they can just work out the problem with all the content being poor in youtube it might be worth watching. | 23:35 |
| phillw | lol, lubuntu cannot do anything about what people post up ;) | 23:36 |
| Tir_Eoghan | only so many times one can watch cats falling off couches before one goes completely insane | 23:36 |
| Tir_Eoghan | lol | 23:37 |
| phillw | but as proof of concept it is useful. | 23:37 |
| Tir_Eoghan | although wouldn't that be a brilliant update. "Lubuntu, now adds taste and quality to content providers content" | 23:37 |
| Tir_Eoghan | "Tried watching an Uwe Boll movie in theaters? Now, try watching it on Lubuntu, and see the improvement. The OS that makes the media seem competent" | 23:39 |
| Tir_Eoghan | just a little flight of fancy there.. | 23:40 |
| phillw | lol | 23:41 |
| Tir_Eoghan | just wish hulu would switch to html5, hulu occasionally has decent content | 23:43 |
| Tir_Eoghan | I think I'll give 10.10 beta 2 an install this weekend | 23:45 |
| Tir_Eoghan | now that I've gotten used to not being afraid of updates (windows), I feel like having the updated version. | 23:47 |
| Tir_Eoghan | thanks for the info, I'm heading out to do some errands | 23:55 |
