| syst3m | Im at the "download installer componets" part, what should i select if anything? | 00:08 |
|---|---|---|
| phillw | syst3m: I wish I could answer, I never saw that question when I wrote up the 10.04 instructions | 00:11 |
| phillw | my guess would be no. | 00:12 |
| phillw | what you're after is just the # prompt | 00:12 |
| syst3m | huh? | 00:13 |
| phillw | syst3m: you want the computer to just boot into a command line environment, what are the options that it gives you installer components? | 00:15 |
| phillw | ethernet is needed | 00:16 |
| syst3m | oh never mind about that part, im trying to guess my way thru at this point | 00:16 |
| syst3m | and using your guide where i can | 00:16 |
| syst3m | phillw: you there? I have another mini cd issue | 01:50 |
| phillw | yeah, still lurking, just doing some back office stuff | 01:50 |
| syst3m | i got to the part were i entered "sudo apt-get install --no-install-recommends lubuntu-desktop" | 01:51 |
| syst3m | and my monitor is now not receiving a signal | 01:52 |
| syst3m | everything up to that point was ok tho | 01:52 |
| MonthOLDpickle | hey | 01:55 |
| MonthOLDpickle | whats the extras command? | 01:55 |
| MonthOLDpickle | is it lubuntu-restricted-extras? | 01:55 |
| phillw | syst3m: I have never come accross that issue, sorry :( | 01:55 |
| phillw | MonthOLDpickle: "* A new meta-package (lubuntu-restricted-extras) is available to | 01:56 |
| phillw | install restricted packages for Lubuntu (such as flash, java and extra | 01:56 |
| phillw | codecs for chromium)" | 01:56 |
| MonthOLDpickle | figured I just install it | 01:57 |
| MonthOLDpickle | just when I did an apt-cache search for it nothing popped up | 01:57 |
| phillw | syst3m: my best guess is that it is driver issue, which can be altered when grub boots | 01:58 |
| syst3m | seems to be working again | 01:58 |
| phillw | syst3m: well, you're making progress :) | 01:58 |
| syst3m | i was about to give up and try from the beginning and when i hit the power button it came back | 01:58 |
| phillw | syst3m: I hope you're taking notes :) | 02:00 |
| MonthOLDpickle | so should I install extras and addons? | 02:00 |
| phillw | depends if you want them. | 02:00 |
| MonthOLDpickle | be nice I could find the list on intrawebz | 02:02 |
| MonthOLDpickle | like bluetooth | 02:02 |
| MonthOLDpickle | I am about to install bluez and bluetooth support but I can never turn it off during one session | 02:02 |
| phillw | MonthOLDpickle: I saw about bluetooth earlier, I don't use it. You would probably be better off asking on the mailing list; but I do not think bluetooth is a priority for the lubuntu project. Else we will end up with an install the same size and resource usage as normal ubuntu. | 02:04 |
| syst3m | phillw: it kinda worked, but sound options were grayed out and network wasnt showing up | 02:05 |
| syst3m | phillw: tryed to update via Synapatic Package Manager but it wouldnt except my password | 02:06 |
| MonthOLDpickle | whats this mailing list? I also notice hitting power doesn't bring up the shutting off options | 02:06 |
| phillw | the network not showing up is covered at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Lubuntu/DocumentationHelp/MinimalInstall | 02:06 |
| phillw | MonthOLDpickle: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Lubuntu/GettingInvolved | 02:07 |
| syst3m | phillw: what about my password not being accepted? | 02:09 |
| phillw | I'm going to assume you messed up what you typed in and what you assumed you typed in. (CAPS lock can be a real bitch). | 02:10 |
| phillw | anyways good people, it is 02:11 here and I'm off to bed. I'll catch up with stuff later on today once I've had some sleep. | 02:12 |
| syst3m | thanks for the help | 02:14 |
| MonthOLDpickle | how do you do a bug report on the site? | 02:31 |
| head_victim | As in a bug with the website or going to the website to file a bug? | 02:32 |
| head_victim | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Lubuntu/ReportingBugs that is the generic page that should be able to assist. | 02:33 |
| head_victim | http://lubuntu.net/blog/lubuntu-screencast-report-bugs is a screencast if you find that easier. | 02:34 |
| MonthOLDpickle | flash frickin lags on this | 02:38 |
| MonthOLDpickle | anyway to increase mem use for it | 02:38 |
| MonthOLDpickle | shoot have to go | 02:39 |
| MonthOLDpickle | hey I can't get into the sound mixer how do I? Right click icon the option is greyed out | 07:10 |
| bioterror | hmm | 07:11 |
| bioterror | I'm running 10.04 now | 07:11 |
| bioterror | and there's nothing mixer thingies in right click on that o))) -icon ) | 07:12 |
| MonthOLDpickle | was able to last os install and I am on 10.10 | 07:13 |
| MonthOLDpickle | shouldn't be too different | 07:14 |
| MonthOLDpickle | http://i54.tinypic.com/2w65vyx.png | 07:18 |
| JoeMaverickSett | i tried it when you said that, i'm also having the same problem. :/ | 07:18 |
| JoeMaverickSett | they are greyed out. | 07:19 |
| MonthOLDpickle | bah humbug | 07:19 |
| MonthOLDpickle | what is the different between lubuntu and xubuntu? | 07:20 |
| JoeMaverickSett | lubuntu uses lightweight X11 Desktop Environment and xubuntu uses xfce desktop environment. | 07:22 |
| JoeMaverickSett | lightweight X11 Desktop Environment = lxde | 07:22 |
| JoeMaverickSett | does that answer your question? :) | 07:22 |
| MonthOLDpickle | on google i5t says An official version of Ubuntu Linux that uses the XFCE desktop environment. Designed for low-specification computers. | 07:23 |
| MonthOLDpickle | but looks just like ubuntu | 07:23 |
| bioterror | well | 07:24 |
| MonthOLDpickle | I like lubuntu but things are too weird like sound control worked than I messed up the os reinstall it and now it doesn't and BT support is not a priority | 07:24 |
| bioterror | thunar still sucks | 07:24 |
| JoeMaverickSett | bioterror: that's offtopic. :P | 07:24 |
| MonthOLDpickle | I just want something that works out of the box like ubuntu desktop did | 07:24 |
| MonthOLDpickle | bgut looks like lubuntu | 07:24 |
| bioterror | JoeMaverickSett, compared to pcmanfm it lacks alot of features, +1 for lubuntu ;) | 07:24 |
| JoeMaverickSett | well, MonthOLDpickle, they may look alike but the desktop environment is different. :0 | 07:25 |
| MonthOLDpickle | yea | 07:25 |
| MonthOLDpickle | I had to images.google.com it to see | 07:25 |
| MonthOLDpickle | the site isn | 07:25 |
| MonthOLDpickle | t very infomative to me | 07:25 |
| MonthOLDpickle | kubuntu site that is | 07:25 |
| MonthOLDpickle | don't get me wrong | 07:27 |
| MonthOLDpickle | I am loving lubuntu | 07:27 |
| MonthOLDpickle | just sound won't fix now and bt is...frinicky | 07:27 |
| JoeMaverickSett | MonthOLDpickle: the longer you use it the more you will come to love it. ;) | 07:27 |
| MonthOLDpickle | except i want sound | 07:28 |
| MonthOLDpickle | and if i need to use bt later after turning it off to save battery i have to reboot | 07:28 |
| bioterror | MonthOLDpickle, if you press left mouse button | 07:29 |
| bioterror | does it show you the slider bar? | 07:29 |
| MonthOLDpickle | its on max | 07:29 |
| MonthOLDpickle | touchpad | 07:29 |
| MonthOLDpickle | bt is off i have to reboot to use the mouse | 07:29 |
| MonthOLDpickle | ah there is a fedora lxde spin | 07:30 |
| MonthOLDpickle | wonder if its any different wise | 07:30 |
| MonthOLDpickle | I do not imagine so | 07:31 |
| MonthOLDpickle | its either reinstall lubuntu til my sound mixer works again or tryin somethin else | 07:48 |
| bioterror | OpenSuse has one | 07:48 |
| MonthOLDpickle | so lubuntu is basically ubuntu with lxde? | 07:49 |
| bioterror | if you're interested | 07:49 |
| pip | well, I solved my themes problem. I was looking in the wrong place!!!!! | 12:20 |
| pip | that's saved me a reinstal | 12:20 |
| Kalidarn | if i wanted to upgrade to lubuntu a kubuntu VM would this be as simple as "apt-get install lubunut-desktop"? | 15:50 |
| Kalidarn | i did that but got a non-functioning desktop | 15:50 |
| Kalidarn | no applications etc | 15:50 |
| Kalidarn | run dialog would crash | 15:50 |
| phillw | Kalidarn: never done on a VM, but https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Lubuntu/DocumentationHelp#Install%20Lubuntu%20from%20Ubuntu%20or%20any%20Ubuntu%20flavors | 16:26 |
| Kalidarn | i decided not to use lubuntu it was quicker and more lightweight to use twm for what i wanted to test :P | 16:27 |
