Arthur_DI have successfully used DSL liveCD00:00
Arthur_Dbut unfortunately DSL project is dead00:00
phillwDSL and puppy are the only ones I can think of for that RAM00:00
Arthur_Dokay, thanks anyway :)00:00
phillwif you search for "puppy linux" I think that project is still going00:01
Arthur_Dyeah, looking through their pages. Trying to find minimum sys requirements00:03
Arthur_Dproblem is, I need to use a boot floppy in order to access the CDrom00:04
Arthur_DDSL had that, but their partition manager wouldn't let me resize the Windows 95 partition00:04
Arthur_DI realize I might have to give dual-booting up though. It's hard to find projects where I can use floppies nowadays00:08
* phillw sorry was away, but I 'think' that http://www.pendrivelinux.com/ covers floppy disks.00:28
Arthur_Dthanks, will look at that (their site is really unprofessional, not a good sign)00:30
phillwArthur_D: that site is an excellent resource, their instructions can be trusted.00:31
Arthur_Dokay, I just hate the ads everywhere, thanks for the affirmation00:32
phillwArthur_D: have a look at the resulst at http://www.pendrivelinux.com/search/floppy  That may help you out.00:33
Arthur_Dthanks a lot phillw for your kind help :)00:34
phillwall I can say is everyone I've asked to use that site has respsonded that it worked. Please let me know how you get on with a floppy install.00:34
Arthur_Dproblem is, all the instructions seems to be aimed at using floppy to boot from USB. I need to use floppy to boot from CD00:37
szczurArthur_D, http://cutecomputer.wordpress.com/2006/10/10/boot-cdrom-through-grub/ < you can try this00:47
szczurit seems that this is the case :)00:47
szczurahh, not exactly00:48
szczurnevermind00:48
szczurforget about it :)00:48
Arthur_Dokay, thanks for trying anyway :)00:48
Arthur_DI got a tip from a guy over at #puppylinux that seems to be worth trying00:48
Arthur_Dwill need to try it later though, as I need to sleep soon ;)00:50
szczuryou can try this > https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto/BootFloppy00:51
szczurand then add cdrom entry from previous site i linked in :)00:52
Arthur_Dhm, unfortunately my main computer doesn't have a floppy drive00:53
Arthur_Dmaybe I can get hold of one though00:53
Arthur_Dgood night folks, and thanks for all the help :)01:05

MossyfunkIf i install a package, and it installs dependencies.... how do I getb synaptic to remove those dependencies along with the package? I tried marking the package for complete removal but only that one was selected10:04

Mossyfunkwell that would do the trick..... but assume i'm the owner of this laptop and i do things in the gui10:05
bioterrorwell10:06
bioterror!lxterminal10:06
ubot5The linux terminal or command-line interface is very powerful. Open a terminal via Applications -> Accessories -> Terminal (Gnome), K-menu -> System -> Konsole (KDE), or Menu -> Accessories -> LXTerminal (LXDE). Guide: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UsingTheTerminal10:06
bioterrorVERY POWERFUL!10:06
Mossyfunkfrom the wiki Lubuntu is targeted at "normal" PC users running on low-spec hardware. Such users may not know how to use command line tools, and in most cases they just don't have enough resources for all the bells and whistles of the "full-featured" mainstream distributions."10:06
Mossyfunkyes "I" know how to use the CLI10:07
bioterrorsomehow I dont see lubuntu as a noobie distro :-)10:07
Mossyfunkthen the wiki is BS10:07
bioterrorwell, the tools are still new, you know10:08
Mossyfunkbeause EVERY piece of literature on this distro and there aint much says lightweight and user friendly10:08
Mossyfunktrue10:08
Mossyfunkgah maybe XFCE would be better10:08
Mossyfunkbut I do like LXDE10:09
bioterror:-)10:09
Mossyfunkvery clean and fast10:09
bioterrorlubuntu looks so sleek10:09
Mossyfunkbut thats the damn issue..., its not for me lol10:09
Mossyfunkok well fuck it i'll pun on gnome and be done with it10:11
Mossyfunkbut thats really lame10:11
Mossyfunklaters10:11
bioterrorshould I use less terminal and more GUI tools?-)10:14
dairaHello all, i have a problem with x settings. the resolution shown is 1600x1200 although the max and native res of my monitor is 1200x800. xrandr shows all resolutions up to 1600x1200 where only 1200x800 has 60hz beside, others have 0hz. i also cant find xorg.conf in /etc/X1110:14
bioterrorby default there's no xorg.conf10:15
dairaalso the bottom and the right of my screen is missing, because of bigger resolution10:15
bioterroryou have to make one by running Xorg -configure10:15
bioterrorand then copy that file to /etc/X11/10:15
dairai tried that, but with sudo X -configure /home/daira/xorg.conf.new and i got blank screen10:17
dairaafter i did sudo Xorg -configure10:17
bioterrorhmmm10:17
dairait seems that unichrome driver doesnt work10:17

b0mzHi guys, i want to get lubuntu on an USB with unetbootin.. I dont see lubuntu on the distro list, does it work if i choose ubuntu or xubuntu but with the lubuntu.iso file? =/17:45
phillwb0mz: unetbootin will put it on if you have the iso file on your computer. lubuntu is not 'adopoted' yet.17:46
phillwb0mz: please use the torrents, the servers are getting hammered !!!!!17:46
b0mzphillw: ok, so i can choose ubuntu then? phillw im downloading it from an swedish server :)17:47
phillwyou would need to download the lubuntu iso, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Lubuntu#Get%20Lubuntu and then tell unetbootin to use that iso to create the usb.17:48
b0mzphillw: yes i know, but lubuntu doesnt exist in unetbootin list.. my question was if it doesnt matter if i choose ubuntu or xubuntu from that list17:50
* phillw thinks the secondary server is quiet if you need a direct download. That's my server area and they haven't shouted at me... yet :P17:50
b0mz:)17:50
phillwb0mz: if you have the lubuntu iso, then you can tell unebootin to use a local iso.17:50
phillw*unetbootin*17:51
b0mzaight now i see that, sorry... my mistake17:51
phillwb0mz: there is no need to apologise while you are learning :)17:51

sepplmaster1phillw: excuse me, but i was afk. well graphics would be better19:06
=== sepplmaster1 is now known as sepplmaster
phillwsepplmaster: use either CloneZilla or Pybackpack.19:07
phillwboth are excellent Graphical systems.19:07
sepplmasterphillw: i have heared about pybackpack, and will try it. i was not sure wether it depends on nautilus. clone zilla is only for entire partitions so it is not my favourite.19:08
phillwpybackpack is good for normal backups, I use clonezilla for disk backups.19:09
sepplmasterphillw: the forum entry looks interesting, marked it as a favourite, will try pybackpack now.19:10
phillwthere are some others around, but I only have experience of them two. you can ask in #ubuntu-beginners to ask what others recommend.19:10
sepplmasterphillw: i chose #lubuntu because i thought you will know about the problems with nautilus dependencies but good idea. i will try! thank you for now.19:12
phillwjust let them know that you don't want gnome and are using lubuntu. But pybackpack is pretty  lean and mean.19:13

ubot5aaq: GRUB2 is the default Ubuntu boot manager since Ubuntu 9.10.  For more information and troubleshooting for GRUB2 please refer to https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub221:03
phillwaaq: if you just want to re-install the windows boot loader and loose the ubuntu area, you can do that, else sometimes a re-install of grub2 will settle things down for you.21:04
aaqi want lubuntu and win.21:05
bioterrorwell21:05
aaqso i guess i have to look into grub21:06
phillwaaq: give me one moment21:06
bioterrorwe could edit the /boot/grub/grub.cfg21:06

bioterrorsounds like livecd and chroot21:35
bioterror!chroot21:35
ubot5A chroot is used to make programs believe that the directory they are running in is really the root directory. It can be used to stop programs accessing files outside of that directory, or for compiling 32bit applications in a 64bit environment - see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BasicChroot21:35
phillwaaq: do you have a cd with (l)ubuntu on it?21:39
aaqusb21:39

phillwone moment ....21:39
phillwaaq: you will be able to use http://forum.phillw.net/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=35  just be really careful with device names !!!!21:41
aaqok ill try21:41
aaqthanks'21:41
phillwaaq: if it is just a grub issue, have a read of http://forum.phillw.net/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=521:44
aaqyes and no i think21:45
phillwaaq: try http://forum.phillw.net/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=5 first, I don't really think it is a kernel issue; as I doubt you have deleted that.21:46
aaqbut this make ma head hurt21:46

phillwaaq: just so as you know, http://forum.phillw.net/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=57#p8121:51
phillwmy instructions are checked out before I post them on my forum or onto the lubuntu wiki area.21:51
aaqwell i have reinstalled win and lubunto 2 times so i dont care if it goes to hell. i just want to find i way to get it working even if that mean reinstalling21:53
aaqbut i guess someone it working his ass off over this? its not only me?21:54
phillw10.10 is fairly recent, let me have a look and see if it is having issues with Win721:54
aaqbut i installed 10.1021:55
aaqand it was some linux image update and then it failed21:56
phillwis okay, I'm just asking Mr Grub :)21:56
phillwaaq: then you will need to use http://forum.phillw.net/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=35 to get a replacement kernel. Again, be really careful of device names.21:58
phillwaaq: there are no reported issues from thousands of users with 10.10 and Win7. Can I suggest that you check the install cd passes the self test.21:59
aaqhmm22:00
phillwif you're on usb, then you need to manually check the iso download on both your computer and the usb stick22:00
aaqwell it did work until i updated22:00
aaqso i had both win7 and lubuntu 10.1022:01
phillwI'm guesssing there was a file corruption as you downloaded the updates.22:01
aaqmaybe but it happend 3 times :)22:02
aaqshould i dl updates while installing?22:04
phillwno, do not do the updates. get the system up and stable first.22:04
phillwaaq: ensure you do https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Lubuntu/DocumentationHelp/CheckCD to the iso file you're using to make the usb stick with.22:06
aaqkk22:08
head_victimIs there anywhere that has differences between Lubuntu and a mini iso with lxde over the top?22:15
head_victimGoogle is only showing me something from 200922:15
phillwhead_victim: I'm not sure, but you now have two options to install lubuntu via the mini-iso22:17
phillwstandard and cut-down22:18
head_victimI was curious because I have a Lubuntu 10.10 in a VM from the Beta and I have a 10.04 that was originally gnome with lxde installed over the top and they look very different.22:19
* phillw has just realised has missed a page on the wiki :'(22:20
phillwhead_victim: if you have gnome with it, you will have a legacy of gnome on it.22:21
bioterror!removing gnome22:22
bioterror:D22:22
head_victimI'm thinking simply using Lubuntu will just be "easier"22:22
phillwyou can rid your system of gnome22:22
phillwhead_victim: and a lot faster :)22:22
bioterrorI have to remember that ubuntu mini iso is for the 64bit installation22:23
head_victimphillw: so lubuntu is quicker than mini iso + lxde?22:23
phillwlxde and lubuntu work very closely together, so you will get a system that works well together.22:23
head_victimOk. I'm hoping the scroll wheel flicking through all my open windows will be gone when I install it properly as opposed to in a vm. It's painful with a free scrolling mouse22:24
phillwhead_victim: I can only repeat what others say, and that is that they love lubuntu.22:25
head_victimMy 2.4 celeron is starting to really chug with gnome and xfce wasn't really much different.22:25
phillwlxde is smaller than xubuntu, "A Pentium II or Celeron system with 128 MiB of RAM is probably a bottom-line configuration that may yield slow yet usable system with Lubuntu." and we know it works on such systems.22:26
head_victimYeah I was pretty happy with it in the vm. It may just save me buying a new pc if I'm lucky.22:27
phillwhead_victim: I do see people pop on here thanking the team for breathing life into an older computer.22:28
kosaidpopeace out guys22:28
head_victimIt's coupled with a quad core sitting beside it with synergy so I don't NEED another powerhouse, I just use this for irc, amsn & skype. It's nice while gaming to have a whole second PC sitting there with other things going. I never thought dual head was a good solution when you can have dual PCs.22:29
=== head_v is now known as head_victim
phillwhead_victim: if it meets the minimum spec, you'll be very pleasantly suprised. lubuntu is very gentle on resources and RAM22:31
head_victimRAM is cheap and so easy to expand. The CPU has been my bottleneck for ages.22:31
phillwgnome is an eater of CPU, lxde is not.22:32
szczurhead_victim, about this mini.iso + lxde vs lubuntu. if you will add lubuntu ppa to the mini.iso based system there will be no difference except the gtk theme and so on22:33
szczuryou can install lubuntu and then disable unneded daemons22:34
aaq@phillw now i got both win7 and lubuntu up and running. so now its just to never update lubuntu?22:34
meetingologyaaq: Error: "phillw" is not a valid command.22:34
head_victimszczur: so not a huge performance difference?22:34
szczurbluetooth for example if you don't use it22:34
szczurhead_victim, not really22:34
head_victimszczur, fair enough I'll stick with Lubuntu install then, just a little easier.22:34
szczurbut if you want only your software (for example you use gedit and not leafpad) you can use mini.iso22:35
szczurand install everything manually22:35
szczurthis will save you a couple of megabytes :)22:35
head_victimYeah, I'm still working on getting chromium to do everything I want but it's getting there.22:35
phillwaaq: I'd leave it be, if it is working. I'm still asking for you.22:35
head_victimI have 80gb for / so I think I'm safe :)22:36
szczurohh, so there's no problem i think :)22:36
szczuranother advantage is that you know what you have on your system and that you have only software you want. but it's more time consuming that installing ready to use lubuntu22:37
head_victimAnyone been able to get the program "mail-notification" working? Everytime I try to add a mailbox it aborts with a small list of gtk and glib errors.22:37
head_victimszczur, yeah that's handy but looking at Lubuntu it doesn't seem to dump a bunch of stuff needlessly anyway22:38
szczurthat's true22:38

szczurireplace celeron with pentium22:41
szczur12kB of L2 cache is overkill22:41
szczur128*22:41
head_victimIs this error something easily fixed or is it hinting that the program requires a gnome install? http://www.lubuntu.pastebin.com/V21EHX4q22:47
szczurhead_victim, i'd ask you to post it in bugzilla and/or ubuntu forums22:49
phillwhead_victim: we do not use evolution in lubuntu22:49
szczurthis would help us squash the bug and fix the problem22:50
head_victimphillw yeah it's not only for evolution mailboxes22:50
head_victimszczur no dramas, I wasn't sure if it was just a "it's dependant on gnome" thing or not.22:50
szczurmaybe, the problems is that lxpanel doesn't work in the same way as gnome panel is, I think22:51
szczur-,22:51

szczurdon't know if it will work but it doesn't need GNOME to work22:54
szczurmaybe it is worth to try22:54
head_victimszczur, setting it up now23:01
head_victimI found a little script on the forum that sort of does what I want23:01
kiethsQuestion regarding customizing a USB Pendrive 'live' version...23:06
phillwask away kieths23:08
kiethsInstallating with 'persistence' develops problems after perhaps 30~50 boots (suspect writing too much to the USB / SD card).  Goal is to customized once, write once, then only read, as in 'livecd' but using an SD / USB pendrive23:08
kiethsProblems developed include incorrect sudoers mode, and corrupted file.  Correctable (using Ubuntu to mount casper, etc.), but bothersome.23:10
kiethsPrefer to mount (something) to modify the core list of file one time, then save to USB and only read.23:10
phillwkieths: select no area for persistance, else 'burn' the usb as a CD - it would mean you have no memory for what you do on the computer. It's more likely that you need a usb stick that meets speedboost requirements.23:12
kiethsHmmm...  Currently using a 4GB Class 10 SD (EeePC supports boot to SD).  Currently doing a persistence of 3GB.  Killed Google Chrome, added Firefox, a couple other aps, scripts, and replaced teh built in network drivers.  Needless to say, there's some extra space needed for these mods.  But I don't want it 'auto-modding' and breaking the work done (it's corrupting mods, I suspect due to writing too often).23:15
phillwkieths: http://blogs.msdn.com/b/tomarcher/archive/2006/06/02/615199.aspx should point you in the correct direction, I have one that I use for ubuntu / lubuntu usb installs.23:16
phillwI also have one from Canonical store which is also working perfectly.23:17
kiethsTok a quick glance.  Will read in detail this afternoon.23:17
kiethsThinking I need to pre-modify an ISO to add in dependencies, etc before blasting to SD/USB.  That make any sense?23:18
kiethsFor the corrupted files / wrong mode issue, I was able to mount my Lubuntu SD card using Ubuntu 10.04 (full install), and using root, correct the corrupted problems, temporarily.   Building the bootable SD takes perhaps 2 hours.  Glitching takes seconds if something goes wrong.  If only I could clone it once I get it right.23:23
phillwkieths: yup it does, you may want to take a look at http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-6509.html or possibly look at remastersys via http://www.ubuntugeek.com/creating-custom-ubuntu-live-cd-with-remastersys.html23:24
head_victimkieths, I've run persistent usb installs on standard (even cheap) usb drives before for months.23:24
head_victimTried it with a different SD card?23:25
phillwkieths: soz for the gaps, I have to and dig the links up !!!!23:25
phillw*to go and*23:25
kiethsNot yet.  Copied the linx, will sincerely read and research.  Got the one Class 10 4GB.  Got a ton of 1GB cards.  If I could create a custom card - as in no Google Chrome wasting space, no wrong drivers, only the stuff I need, it may fit to 1 GB.  THEN, if I could CLONE the SD card to backup the effort...amazing solution.23:27
head_victimGood luck getting down to 1gb :)23:28
kiethsThe 1GB is too small for any kind of persistence, though.  Wouldn't matter.  A thumb drive is perfect for copying out any data.23:28
phillwkieths: you can use minimal install, then the minimal lubuntu install.23:28
kiethsI can install Ubuntu 10.04 LTS in a 1GB SD card.  Lubuntu should fit easily.23:29
phillwand No, I have not yet written up the full instructions yet :p23:29
kiethsLubuntu is good stuff.  I have a serious problem with Google Chrome, though.23:30
phillwlubuntu is, from memory, about 540MB atm, so should happily fit on a SD card.23:30
kiethsYes, definately.23:30
* phillw is getting used to it. I have to use Ffox for some of my web-dev stuff; but chromium is becomming a really good browser.23:31
kiethsI truly believe that missing Google Chrome, it could hold FF and choice other aps/scripts under the 1 GB mark.23:31
* phillw is biased as I also know the guy who deals with the *buntu / Chromium bugs really quickly; he's a star.23:32
kiethsChrome is crashing on me seriously.  It finally gave up, and no longer runs under the USB install.  Can't figure which dependency glitched.  Installed FF, killed teh G-C shortcuts.  FF works much better, and has much more add-on support.23:32
kiethsChrome is lighter weight, but no running one all the websites I visit.23:33
phillwkieths: please file a bug report. Fabian cannot get it investigated unless it is reported. If you prefer, just email what information you have on it over phillw@phillw.net and I will ensure he gets to know about it. "Bugs that are not reported will only be fixed by accident"23:34
kiethsIs there an effort to make a module-picker for building customized Lubuntu (similar to the Slax concept)?23:35
phillwkieths: there is a difference between Chrome and Chromium, which have you been using?23:35
kiethsDefault in Lubuntu 10.04.  It doesn't run, so I can't open it and read it to tell you.23:36
phillwwell, if you're running 10.04 you are long way out of date. you may well find that https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Lubuntu#Have%2010.04%20and%20want%2010.10? sorts out your problems23:38
kiethsI tried to use it when I first flashed.  It worked.  Booted perhaps 20+ times, then one day is simply would run Google at all.  Click, pause like it's opening, then.... nothing.  Pulled in FF via GZ file on USB, installed smooth, problem resolved (for me at the time).23:38
phillwI really think it is a hardware issue, either the SD card / USB stick.23:39
kiethsThere is, and will constantly be minor and major version updates.  I'm trying to make an SD card that...works.  I can change OS's for each release, but it will take a bout 2 hours of customizing each time.  It's like your alarm clock - there's a new version of firmware that adds 12 new 'bells'.  As long as it wakes me in the morning....23:41
phillw10.10 of lubuntu will be here untill 11.04 :)23:41
kiethsWish for a familiar browser that has all the add-ons I use daily - forecastfox, fasterfox, and various others.  Never liked the Google colors or feel, and it crashing permanently gave me another excuse to not use that.23:43
kiethsOK.. will pull down 10.1023:43
kieths...IF it uses Firefox.23:43
phillwno, you can do it via the mini-iso and have no browser at all. The reason we use chromium is that is less resource hungry than Ffox.23:45
kiethsSerious note, thanks, phillw, for the links.  Will research, and hopefully find input to better the SD situation.  Will also buy a second card for comparison.23:45
kiethsAgreed.. Google is smaller footprint and resource wise.  It just kills my morning weather forecasts (bottom bar - not a website), the international times (Foxclocks, again bottom bar), and several others.  I'll pay the bandwidth and resources, even if using an older 900 MHz box, for the conveniences.23:47
kiethsFamiliar wins over quick to crash23:48
stlsaintphillw: sup, i added lubuntu to autojoin but moved to other lappy so i had to readd :D23:51
kiethsGot to run for a bit.  Thanks again Phillw, for your advice and assistance.23:52
phillwstlsaint:  lol, you may want to pop onto #lubuntu-offtopic once in a while, we relax in there23:52
bioterror:D23:52
head_victimszczur, I've been able to get that gnubiff configured pretty well actually thanks for the pointer23:57
