djsMy CD/DVD burner doesn't show up. What do I do?01:30
djsXfburn seems to stall after saying: ** Message: Ignoring reader 'SAMSUNG CD-ROM SC-148C' at '/dev/sr1'01:31
djsBrasero lets me select my *.iso to burn but the "Select a disc to write to" drop down list is grayed out ):01:31
djsThe CD reader drive and the CD/DVD burner drive don't show up in the left pane in PcManFM. Should they?01:31
stlsaintdjs: your cd drive isnt mount in the /media folder?01:35
djsNeither of them01:36
stlsaintdjs: if you put a cd in the drive does it show up01:37
djsLubuntu ISO has it boot up01:39
djsBlank DVD-R not01:39
djsSo is the DVD-R incompatible w/ the drive or do I need to do something to mount it when the DVD-R is in?01:41
stlsaintlubuntu iso?01:42
turtle_stlsaint: hey buddy01:53
turtle_stlsaint: I got my video working in a round about sort of way!01:56
turtle_what is everyone's tv viewer of choice?01:56
turtle_I've tried myth but it's too complex for my little brain, and metv under ubuntu 10.04 struggled with HD sometimes01:57
turtle_I've heard kaffeine is nice01:57
djsA CD-R with Lubuntu burned on it stlsaint01:57
stlsaintturtle_: oh yea how?02:04
stlsaintturtle_: i was looking for you earlier to ask you how it went02:04
turtle_stlsaint: I used a different video card which let it boot, updated/upgraded then installed nvidia-current, shut down, replaced video card, rebooted and it worked :-)02:06
turtle_stlsaint: except now it cuts off a centremetre or two around the edges of the display, so I can't see the taskbar02:07
stlsaintturtle_: oh, well congrats on your first hack :D02:17
turtle_stlsaint: :-P02:18
stlsaintturtle_: lol02:18
turtle_stlsaint: I assume modifying the xorg.conf will fix the resolution problem?02:18
turtle_stlsaint: it's not really my hack, more yours!02:19
stlsaintturtle_: you can try the xorg.conf hack02:24
turtle_stlsaint: just by removing 10 pixels or so from default resolution until it all appears?02:26
w1n5tonI cannot connect to any wireless networks02:41
turtle_w1n5ton: have you checked your hardware drivers to see if a proprietary one is available?02:44
w1n5tonIt works in GNOME so no02:45
w1n5tonThere's no manager on the panel though02:45
turtle_weird that was my problem when I swapped over and I just had to activate my driver02:46
turtle_though I did it via aptitude02:46
w1n5tonIt sees networks when I launch wicd too02:46
w1n5tonjust won't connect02:46
w1n5tonIt sticks at getting IP address02:46
llogiqhi folks. Last night I tried deadbeef (from the ppa) after reading that it was geared to be in upcoming lubuntu versions. It ran for a while, then segfaulted and crashed my lxpanel. Sorry, I have no core dump to debug. So, back to moc for me (which I am quite happy with anyway). :-)10:31
llogiqOtherwise I'm now very pleased with my lubuntu setup. Since I did not use the desktop anyway, I removed it (and replaced the autostart line with @xsetroot -pointer left_ptr -background black).10:33
bioterrori tried too yesterday it10:38
bioterroradded few mp3s to library and noticed how it handled files with incorrect id3 tag10:38
bioterrori dont want to see that piece of .... never again10:39
bioterrormoc > *10:39
llogiqbioterror: I am not so harsh in my assessment, but I would say there is some work to do before deadbeef becomes a viable choice for listening to music on lubuntu.10:42
Timo_bioterror: you mad? :P10:42
bioterrornjaeh10:42
Timo_we need gmpc!10:42
bioterrormoc is better :D10:43
Timo_in lubuntu10:43
Timo_it's awesome10:43
llogiqI do agree that moc rules.10:43
Timo_featureful & very low on resources10:43
bioterrori hate libraries10:43
hyperairbansheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee10:43
bioterrorworking directory listing is better10:43
Timo_do you know gmpc?10:43
llogiqhyperair: Been there. It's nice. But I still like moc better.10:44
hyperair>=O10:44
hyperairblasphemy!10:44
bioterrorive configured mocs color to match somewhat same colors as my irc client10:45
llogiqhyperair: I just found the moc does exactly what I want and that is to have music in my ears, not fancy album covers in my notification area. :-)10:45
bioterrorllogiq, plus scrobbling to last,fm10:46
llogiqNothing against Banshee. It's a well-designed audio player, but it does not match my "workflow" of listening to music.10:46
hyperairllogiq: i'm more interested in searching capabilities though.10:46
* hyperair loves banshee's search filter thing10:46
hyperairit's like having google in your media player ♥10:46
llogiqYeah, well, I know my music library. I don't need to search it.10:47
Timo_what do you guys think of MPD?10:48
Timo_\ mpc10:48
bioterrornever tried10:49
llogiqTimo_: Haven't tried it10:49
bioterrorbut i mainly use one machine for listening music10:49
bioterrorsometimes i access my musics with popcorn hour thru samba share10:50
Timo_ah k10:50
Timo_it's a command line music player10:50
bioterroritss a daemon and u can connect to it from different computers10:51
bioterrorand it streams10:51
bioterrorcmus is like moc, but horrible to use10:54
bioterrormight suit for a vim users10:54
bioterrorbut im into nano/pico10:55
Timo_bioterror: I know it's a deamon, but mpc is the command line variant which hyou connect to mpd11:00
bioterroryeah11:00
Timo_and gmpc is a gui variant to connect to mpd11:00
Timo_gmpc uses like 12 mb of ram11:00
bioterrortimo, and mpd uses?11:01
Timo_like 3 mb11:01
Timo_I believe11:01
Timo_well gmpc differs with use of ram11:03
Timo_because it uses a plugin system11:03
Timo_so the more plugins you use, the more ram will be used11:03
bioterrori would like to know what moc uses when playing a flac11:11
llogiqbioterror: Then play a flac file and look at top. :-)11:11
bioterroror file thats compressed really well11:11
bioterrorim in a tram :D11:11
llogiq?11:12
bioterrormoving from work place to another :D11:12

zk__'ello14:25
head_victimGday14:26
zk__so...i have a problem14:26
head_victimWhat's that14:26
zk__i have a 3g modem for internet...and i think i have a speed limitation set by the os because i can't get past 15kB/s when i download14:27
zk__where i can check if there is a limitation? and how could i remove it14:28
head_victimThere is no limitation on the operating system side that I'm aware of, I was using wireless today and getting over 2mb/s14:28
zk__when i use the stick on a windows system i get full speed...but on ubuntu i it stops at 15kB/s :|14:29
head_victimIs it the same computer and the same USB slot?14:30
zk__yes14:30
phillwzk__: are you using lubuntu?14:31
zk__i was using lubuntu...today i switched to ubuntu 10.0414:32
zk__same problem on lubuntu thou...14:33
phillwzk__: have a look over at http://ubuntuforums.org/forumdisplay.php?f=336 I do have a couple of workarounds for 3G on lubuntu, they may well work on ubuntu as well.14:34
econdudeawesomeany word if lubuntu will fork come 11.04 & unity?14:34
zk__phillw : i'll have a look and get back with details...ty14:35
head_victimFork?14:35
phillwecondudeawesome: it will not, unity has no effect on either kubuntu or xubuntu either. ubuntu is replacing gnome with unity, so it has no effect on the other flavours14:36
phillwzk__: you can also try http://forum.phillw.net/viewtopic.php?f=18&t=9214:36
econdudeawesomeFair enough. I wonder if there will then become a Gnubuntu?14:36
phillwa good question, but not one that concerns us :)14:37
econdudeawesomeagreed14:38
IdleOneif I install lubuntu-core that will give me Lubuntu Desktop?14:40

econdudeawesomePhill, you should take a poll to see how many people actually use the Lubuntu netbook interface. One of the big reasons I switched over to lubuntu was that it provided me a full lightweight usable desktop interface that worked with the size of a netbook. I suspect there are others doing the same.15:15
phillwecondudeawesome: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Lubuntu/GettingInvolved the mailing list is where he hold polls :)15:16

naji-jiwhat is the best cd/dvd/iso burning software for lubuntu .18:06
bioterrorxfburn :D18:12
szczurnaji-ji, you can also try brasero18:14
bioterroractually it's same stuff from beneath, different surface18:15
naji-jiok18:15
szczurcdrecord :P18:16
bioterrorXfburn is a simple CD/DVD burning tool based on libburnia18:16
szczurbioterror, the same applies for k3b i think18:16
bioterrorSupports multiple backends: cdrtools, growisofs and libburn(optional).18:17
naji-jixfburn is better I think . I used it for puppy linux18:17
naji-jishould I update to 10.10 or better stick to 10.04 any suggestions18:18
bioterrorThe actual disc recording in K3b is done by the command line utilities cdrecord or cdrkit, cdrdao, and growisofs. As of version 1.0, K3b features a built-in DVD ripper.18:18
bioterrorwhat else we've got :D18:20
naji-ji??18:20
bioterrornero burning rom18:23
hyperairnaji-ji: if you use a machine that's pentium 4 and above, 10.1018:25
naji-jiyou mean Lubuntu has lost its lightweightnes...?18:26
naji-jinero burning rom for Linux..?18:27
szczurpentuim 3 and above18:27
szczurpentium*18:27
szczurpentium 2 and lower aren't supported by ubuntu kernel since 10.1018:28
szczurparticulary i586 CPUs and lower18:28
szczurnaji-ji, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MaverickMeerkat/ReleaseNotes#Linux%20kernel%202.6.3518:29
naji-jiwe are taliking about Lubuntu not Ubuntu right...???18:32
szczurbut lubuntu is derivative of ubuntu and use the same base (this means kernel and cli etc.)18:33
szczurif the kernel isn't supporting it we can do nothing ecept telling people to use older release if it would be meant to use on PII and lower18:35
