[00:17] it's a lot smoother than ubuntu netbook remix [00:22] <|friTTe|> =) [00:23] <|friTTe|> and you can still configurate it so it looks the way you want [00:23] <|friTTe|> and still its fast [00:30] chromium seems to want all my cpu while on youtube [00:30] czz: are you using flash? [00:30] I'm not suprised [00:30] flash eats a lot of cpu [00:31] you can sign up for the html5 trial with you-tube, http://www.youtube.com/html5 [00:34] yes, im using flash. [00:36] czz: try the html5 testing out and see how you get on. html5 will eventually phase out flash. [00:44] about a 25-30% improvement [00:45] pretty solid for beta [00:47] I know some people have found it does make a pretty decent improvement, but html5 is still in its own beta stage, so do not expect miracles, video playing is quite cpu intensive :) [01:00] im trying to uninstall some programs without getting rid of the taskbar [01:01] it demands that i remove the lubuntu-taskbar if i want to continue [04:03] help i just installed lubuntu from scratch and the wireless card is not working [04:03] i have a laptop compaq presario cq40-324la [04:09] victoria, did you choose during the installation to install the third party software package? [04:09] not as far as i can remember [04:09] i didnt no [04:09] ahh... it says during installation that it is needed for some wireless hardware. [04:10] what do i do then? reinstall? [04:10] no [04:10] sorry is it 10.04 or 10.10 [04:10] ? [04:10] 10.10 [04:10] there should be a package names "lubuntu-restricted-extras" [04:11] it contains all the third party software to play flash and mp3 and such [04:12] ok [04:12] synaptic? [04:12] yes [04:13] I see there are 2 packages, lubuntu-restricted-extras and lubuntu-restricted-addons [04:13] I myself don't have any wireless hardware so this is far as I can advise you [04:13] ok [04:14] thankyou [04:14] how do you make a shortcut [04:14] on the desktop [04:14] like a launcher [04:14] for firefox and chromium [04:17] I am currently trying to work that one out myself =D [04:17] oh ok [04:17] let me know [04:17] sure thing =) [04:17] welcome to lubuntu irc =) [04:18] takk [04:20] hmm [04:20] Shortcuts on the desktop should be as easy as right click and create launcher? [04:21] i didnt see that option [04:21] actually [04:21] drag n drop [04:21] Hmm it's not there. Sorry for that [04:22] But chromium and pcmanfm are both on the taskbar by default [04:24] okay [04:24] start your file browser [04:25] and head to the /usr/share/applications [04:25] and drang n drop your desired application to the desktop [04:25] it should work [04:25] if it doesnt [04:25] then "copy & paste" ;) [04:26] woop tyvm bioterror [04:26] yes, copy and paste works better [04:26] thats the folder I was looking for =)\ [04:26] gotta remember it [04:27] i cant find the usr share apps folder [04:27] it's applications [04:30] it said permission denied [04:30] error moving file [04:30] hmmmm weird it worked for me [04:30] dont move [04:30] copy [04:31] worked [04:31] yeah [04:31] there you go ;) [04:32] Anyone else get the start menu skin sticking on left panel after its closed? [04:32] I set up a panel on the left of the screen* [04:33] I built my router/firewall on Lubuntu 10.04 [04:33] :D [04:33] it took me a whole night, hahaha [04:33] mrs. bioterror is sooooo going to rip her me apart [04:33] -her :D [04:34] but my system is faaast [04:34] ok i am going to reboot now to see if the lunbuntu extras will solve the wifi problem [04:34] :-) [04:36] ATI site tells me their legacy drivers will only work on linux distrobutions pre Feb 09 [04:37] didnt work [04:37] ofcourse it did not [04:37] :-) [04:37] you should first find out which wlan chipset you have [04:37] it could help us alot [04:38] maybe in terminal "dmesg |grep wlan" [04:38] without "" [04:39] it didnt give me any output [04:39] just the prompt again [04:40] okay [04:40] your kernel cant recognize the wlan [04:40] but it does on the other one [04:41] i mean, i guess it must, because it works fine on it [04:41] i installed wicd and it works fine on it [04:41] i tried downloading the drivers from the preferences menu but they both gave errors [04:41] wha other one? [04:42] i have a laptop of the same model [04:42] i upgraded from 10.04 lubuntu to 10.10 [04:42] and it works fine [04:42] the wireless [04:42] and that one is 10.04? [04:42] this one i installed 10.10 from scratch just now [04:42] okay [04:43] listen i dont believe in fairy dust [04:43] but i am here [04:43] :-) [04:43] I'm trying to help you out [04:43] just a moment [04:44] i know, i put my pants the same way everyone else does [04:44] one leg at a time [04:44] so no worries [04:47] hmm [04:48] i went to the preferences drivers tab again and it says broadcom sta driver is installed and currently used [04:48] the atenna does seem to be on [04:48] but theres no detection of wireless networks [04:49] seems to be weird [04:50] but I have to say that I'm really tired, it's 06:49 and I haven wake up 24 hours ago [04:52] bioterror, [04:52] victoria: some people are reporting that it only seems to work when connected to the internet when installing http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1485247 [04:52] http://pastebin.com/4jdSstdE [04:52] victoria: and there is also someone who has created a little diagnostic script apparently to help out http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1499289 [04:53] head_victim, so which do you recomend i do [04:54] I'd start with the diagnostic [04:54] Depends on how much you have put into setting it all up, if it's still a fresh install mightn't hurt to reinstall with the ethernet connected if that's only going to be a 5 minute thing. [04:54] ok i will try that instead [04:54] brb [08:59] Hey [08:59] hi [08:59] I am in process of installing lubuntu [08:59] yes [09:00] I notice a chroium icon (blue and white icon) is that the defaut brower installed with it? [09:00] yes [09:00] sweet [09:00] indeed [09:00] its chromium and not chrome? [09:01] yes, it's chromium [09:01] chrome is blue, red yellow or what was it [09:01] chrome is blue yellow red [09:01] chromium is light blue, dark blue white [09:02] chrome is almost same, but without sending logs about your activity and without bundled flashplayer [09:02] feel free to surf ;) [09:02] which I can intall with ubuntu extras right? [09:02] with the fastest browser you can get [09:02] yes [09:02] I assume you tapped those check boxes in the beginning of installation [09:03] I did so [09:03] :-) [09:03] oh thats what that is lol [09:03] I would have done the comand in terminal non the less [09:13] how much sace does a total clean install take? [09:13] ts installing as we speak [09:16] How do I get a rundows of used space on partitions from CLI? [09:16] *rundown [09:19] disk manager shows capacity but nopt available space [09:19] *disk utility === OLD is now known as MonthOLDpickle [09:21] /dev/sda2 23G 1.9G 20G 9% / [09:21] 1.9GB for fresh install of 10.10 [09:23] thanks thats light! [09:29] indeed [09:31] its taking forever =( [09:32] I installed from usb drive ZOOM! =) [09:32] mine is from usb [09:32] no cd drive on this lol [09:32] woo done [09:42] CD is so 80's [09:42] lol its a dell mini 9 [09:43] I'm using Dell Latitude D420 [09:43] and my docking bay is 30km away from ;) [09:45] docking bay as in kb, mouse external monitor on it? [09:45] Also I don't need to do sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras? [09:46] lubuntu-restricted-extras [09:46] you can install that one [09:46] whats the difference between lubuntu-restricted-extras and lubuntu-restricted-addons? [09:47] lubuntu tries to dodge gnome packages ;) [09:47] so that is the difference? [09:47] between extras and addons? [09:48] well [09:48] I havent done dpkg -L for both of those packages [09:48] but lubuntu is suggested to use with lubuntu [09:49] let's have a look [09:49] lubuntu [09:49] Depends: lubuntu-restricted-addons [09:49] Recommends: ttf-mscorefonts-installer, unrar, libavcodec-extra-52, libmp4v2-0 [09:49] Filename: pool/universe/u/ubuntu-restricted-extras/lubuntu-restricted-extras_42_i386.deb [09:50] and the ubuntu [09:50] Recommends: gstreamer0.10-plugins-ugly-multiverse, ttf-mscorefonts-installer, unrar, gstreamer0.10-plugins-bad-multiverse, libavcodec-extra-52, libmp4v2-0 [09:50] Filename: pool/multiverse/u/ubuntu-restricted-extras/ubuntu-restricted-extras_42_i386.deb [09:51] oh hummm [09:52] Do I even need to do extras and addons? [09:52] Also everytime I boot up and my card auto connects I have to use a keyring? [09:52] only if you plan to use proprietry software ie play mp3's or watch youtube videos [09:53] MonthOLDpickle, edit the connection and tap the Available for all users [09:53] youtube works in chromium already [09:53] then it doesnt ask for the keyring anymore [09:53] and connects automatically (if you have tapped that checkbox too, by default it should be tapped) [09:57] I want to instll bot sentry for pidgin [09:57] how do I search in terminal [09:57] search what [09:57] bot sentrtry [09:57] apt-get packages or files on your filesystem [09:57] don't know exact full name [09:58] apt-cache search pidgin |grep sentry [10:01] thanks [10:01] np [10:02] apt-cache > synaptic ;) [10:02] and you can do a search like this [10:02] apt-cache search pidgin |more [10:03] apt-cache show pidgin-bot-sentry [10:04] hi hyperair [10:05] bioterror: hello. [10:05] Hey [10:06] I just noticed hitting the power button does nothing on the laptop but I just turned the laptop off [10:06] :D [10:07] but now I have to flee [10:07] laters ;) === Funkrat is now known as Mossyfunk [11:54] <|friTTe|> \O/ [12:03] This is the second Lubuntu install that has tried to log me into a "Default" but only works when you change that session to "Lubuntu" [12:04] weird [12:04] At least I didn't make it auto login like I did on my first one. Made it harder to find the error. [12:05] How do I generate a new openPGP key in lubuntu? the launchpad.net instructions assume you are using gnome [12:05] well.. ubuntu-desktop [12:06] Should be the same? [12:07] <|friTTe|> its just the text editor that differs [12:07] <|friTTe|> gedit in gnome and leafpad in lxde [12:07] The easiest way to generate a new OpenPGP key in Ubuntu is to use the Passwords and Encryption Keys tool. [12:07] Step 1: Open Applications > Accessories > Passwords and Encryption Keys. [12:07] Step 2: Select File > New, select PGP Key and then follow the on-screen instructions. [12:07] Now you'll see your new key listed in the Passwords and Encryption Keys tool. [12:07] <|friTTe|> Mossyfunk, i know i struggled when i signed that one [12:08] <|friTTe|> oh [12:08] <|friTTe|> yeah [12:08] <|friTTe|> hmm well we better try to sort that out, i dont know tbh [12:09] https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GnuPrivacyGuardHowto [12:10] heh yeah was just reading through that [12:11] I seem to have this part of my brain broken where I don't see something right in front of me until I ask someone else lol [12:11] <|friTTe|> i know the feeling =) [12:11] head_victim, |friTTe|, ty [12:11] =) [12:11] <3 [12:11] Mossyfunk: it's what we're here for :) [12:11] <|friTTe|> :) [14:09] hello guys [14:09] any recommendation for a light rss reader ? [14:10] if you replace your sylpheed with clawsmail you can install claws-mail-feeds-reader [14:11] Hmm there is a RSS extension for Chrome, looking to see if it works for Chromium [14:11] bioterror: hi well infact im lookin for some client specific to rss only you kno [14:11] noo i mean adesktop client you got [14:11] it does i use it [14:12] <|friTTe|> use google reader [14:12] well i wanna get a client so if i dont have the net i can still read [14:12] <|friTTe|> ook [14:14] <|friTTe|> kosaidpo, http://www.rss-specifications.com/rss-reader-linux.htm [14:14] <|friTTe|> theres some diff ones [14:14] |friTTe|: thanks : ) [14:15] <|friTTe|> ive been using Liferea couple of times. that one is pretty nice [14:15] <|friTTe|> http://liferea.sourceforge.net/ [14:15] <|friTTe|> i like thtat one, nice looking layout [14:16] is it light ??

[14:23] <|friTTe|> hootot [14:25] frit yesss [14:26] is very cool with my memory ram [14:27] <|friTTe|> alright =D will check it out then [14:29] im kinda sure you ll adopt it [14:32] should I trust apt-get telling me that packages such as reiserfsprogs rdate python-webkit localechooser-data [14:32] ecryptfs-utils are no longer needed? why the hell are they there on a clean install if they are not needed? and why would I remove filesystem tools? [14:32] yes === yofel_ is now known as yofel [15:04] hello [15:04] guys i dl lifearea now so is there any way to link it with my google reader ?? [15:04] or like configure chomuim to subscribe me but using lifearea ? [16:14] Is there a way to setup sylpheed to automatically decrypt pgp encrypted emails? [16:14] or do I need to export to file and dfo it manually [16:18] I seemingly can set it to automatically encrypt emails I send so I should be able to set it to do the reverse no? [16:35] is anyone around? [16:35] yep [16:35] Hey CrackerJackz =) [16:36] Mossyfunk, i have an old computer that has a 300 mhz processor, 128 mb of ram, and a 6 GB hard drive [16:36] i'm looking for a linux distrabution that's right for me [16:36] if you can boot lubuntu 10.10 with your computer, you've found the correct one [16:36] bioterror, well i'm just concerned about the hard drive space [16:37] Lubuntu takes 1.8GB with fresh installation [16:37] "Minimum requirements for lubuntu are comparable to Pentium II or Celeron systems with a 128 Mb RAM configuration, which may yield a slow yet usable system with lubuntu." [16:37] bioterror, even after updates only 1.8gb? [16:37] yes [16:38] can you think of anything that might be better than lubuntu for my scenerio? [16:38] well [16:38] i was thinking dsl maybe [16:38] after lubuntu comes Salix OS, which is based on Slackware [16:38] and slackware is similar to debian i think [16:38] it uses apt-get for package management right? [16:38] it's i486 optimized and also has a LXDE version of it [16:38] it uses slapt-get [16:39] about how much space does slackware take up? [16:39] but ubuntu can provide alot more programs [16:39] hmmm [16:39] well the computer is only going to be used for checking email, watching youtube videos, listening to music [16:39] it's almost the same [16:40] 6GB is enough [16:40] but you should go with the lubuntu, and think salix as a plan b [16:40] how hard do you think it would be to get thi cisco aironet 350 series wireless adapter to work with it? [16:41] I gotta hit the shower, my daughter is yelling at me :d [16:41] laters [16:42] bioterror, okay. thank you for your advice [16:45] later bioterror =) [16:46] CrackerJackz, I am a newbie can't help much sorry [16:46] Mossyfunk, that's okay [16:47] lubuntu is ultra fast on my P4 though compared to other distros [16:51] Mossyfunk, i have gentoo on the computer i'm using now.. [16:52] but i have this old computer that has a pentium 2 processor, 128 mb of ram and 6gb of hard drive space [17:07] gentoo, you should be advanced user then [17:07] ;) [17:07] even I dislike the gentoo installation from scratch [17:09] I gave it a go, but figured "whats the bloody point" and installed lubuntu =) [17:10] I will follow LFS book in the future to learn but for now I'm happy here [17:18] bioterror, i'm still learning actually [17:18] gentoo was my very first distro [17:18] ubuntu my second [17:18] actually i take that back [17:19] when i was 13 i installed mandrake on a computer of mine [17:19] but never knew how to work it [17:19] did you install gentoo with chrooting and stuff like that? or did you use installer/livecd? [17:19] didnt know how to open up any of my files or anything [17:19] so i just said screw it [17:19] stopped using it [17:19] couldnt even get it on the internet [17:19] then when i was like 18.. 19 years old [17:19] i met someone and they started teaching me about linux [17:20] they had me install gentoo lol [17:20] bioterror, i used the live cd [17:20] first gentoo install my friend installed for me [17:20] from several states away [17:20] he had me setup ssh [17:20] and screen [17:21] and he ssh'd in [17:21] yes [17:21] and ran screen on my computer so that i could see what he was doing [17:21] it was pretty cool actually [17:21] but you missed the educational part of it ;) [17:21] i've installed gentoo on other computrs since then though [17:21] i will admit it is a bit of a pain in the ass to compile your own kernel from source if you don't know what you're doing [17:22] theres no way i coulda installed gentoo by my self the first time.. i knew absolutely nothing about linux [17:22] other than it was an operating system [17:22] but hey [17:23] if we wanna chat about this more, you should join #lubuntu-offtopic [17:23] this is for the helping ;) [17:23] okay [18:15] I've upgraded to 10.10 cos my live cd kept crashing, now I only have 1 theme. Help [18:15] 1 theme [18:15] you mean the default lubuntu theme? [18:15] 1 theme, clearlooks [18:15] I'd like the new pretty default one [18:16] you should get it [18:17] it's been a bit of a nightmare, not being able to clean install [18:17] hmmm [18:18] what if you say [18:18] sudo apt-get install --no-install-recommends lubuntu-desktop [18:18] we could start with this one [18:20] aha, i'll give it a go [18:20] already newest version [18:20] its a bit weird I did an upgrde a day or so ago, which gave me the new theme [18:20] okay [18:21] then i borked the system & had to reinstall 10.04 & upgrade again [18:25] Hey guys [18:25] On wireless I go to edit to make the keyring not pop up I don't see a "enable for all users" [18:29] hey what do I add for bluetooth? gnome-bluetooth or bkluez ones? [18:30] try to avoid gnome ;) [18:30] that's what I think in the first place [18:33] sorry experimenting [18:33] so for bluetooth support on lubuntu what would I add? [18:34] Or do I do the extras and addons and that gets it? [18:37] just trying to get my bluetooth working [18:38] all I find is info on ubuntu and how to pair phone with lubuntu [18:41] I got blueman installed... [18:43] All I fidn is ubuntu raawwwrrrrr [18:43] it's early days for this distro yet, I think [18:44] restarting [18:46] w000t [18:47] decision estimated guessing works! [18:47] except the icon goes away when you disable it -.- [18:50] thats going to be annoying lol! [18:52] I guess I can live with only one theme [18:53] everything works [18:53] even if i cant find the new control centre in synaptic :-) [18:54] ttfn guys [18:54] Pip pip [18:54] I use a bluetooth mouse [18:54] every now and than I dsiable to save battery [18:58] I disable the bluetooth to save battery and sometimes turn it back on to use a mouse [18:58] I sho0uldn't need to restart everytime -.p [19:00] after stopping the film and pressing play on youtube the film starts to "hang" but the sound continous [19:02] has someone an idea how to solve that? [19:02] maybe something wrong with the flash [19:03] * bioterror is waiting for the html5 [19:06] i set the space used for buffer in the flash settings to 10mb. at the moment it seemed to be the solution [19:12] slow-motion: try using the html5 trial on you-tube instead of flash. [19:14] slow-motion: http://www.youtube.com/html5 [19:14] yes i know that site [19:14] html5 produces wrong colours with chromium 8.0.556.0 (62835) [19:16] slow-motion: is that the stable, or daily build? [19:17] fffffffffffffffffff [19:17] I am going to reinstall lol [19:17] trying to get the bluetooth manager to stay on even with bt is turned off [19:17] installed kubuntu and ubuntu stuff [19:18] -.- [19:19] sometime when i reboot my computer, my networking devices doesn't pick up eth01 [19:19] and i have to reboot to correct this issue [19:19] how do you get flash drives to mount ? [19:22] MonthOLDpickle: pcmanfm should automount them [19:22] phillw the daily [19:23] slow-motion: i'd suggest filing a bug against it, the guy who chases up chromium bugs is a star and you will get a reply. [19:23] he can have a bug fix out within 24 hours. [19:24] the flash is dropping frames [19:25]
