| stlsaint | HELP | 01:13 |
| phillw | stlsaint: how? | 01:17 |
| EpicCyndaquil | phillw, wrong channel? what are you taking about? :P | 01:18 |
| phillw | EpicCyndaquil: this is the support channel :D | 01:18 |
| EpicCyndaquil | I know, I know, was messing with you :P | 01:19 |
| phillw | EpicCyndaquil: it's just that this one gets logged so people can search it, the offtopic area specifically does not get logged. | 01:19 |
| EpicCyndaquil | so should I go straight to install from unetbootin? | 01:19 |
| EpicCyndaquil | gotcha, fair enough | 01:20 |
| phillw | use the 'iso' button and tell unetbootin where the iso is | 01:20 |
| EpicCyndaquil | I deem this motherboard buggy | 01:21 |
| EpicCyndaquil | no, I was in unetbootin on the USB on the computer :P | 01:21 |
| EpicCyndaquil | I PRESS ENTER AND IT DOES NOTHING | 01:21 |
| EpicCyndaquil | FFFFFFFUUUUUUU | 01:21 |
| phillw | EpicCyndaquil: Do you remember me saying RTFM? http://unetbootin.sourceforge.net/ | 01:22 |
| stlsaint | phillw: im sure i can figure this out on my own but i want to get it from the experts...whats the best way to get fluxbox up and running on lubuntu? | 01:22 |
| phillw | stlsaint: you'd to ask someone like bioterror or ask on the ml. | 01:22 |
| stlsaint | bioterror: HELP | 01:23 |
| stlsaint | phillw: again i have been using multisessions for some time | 01:23 |
| EpicCyndaquil | "these ISO files will not work as-is" | 01:23 |
| stlsaint | phillw: i figure it would be a good teaching lesson for our new members? | 01:23 |
| phillw | stlsaint: he's in bed, do not forget bioterror has been ill. | 01:23 |
| stlsaint | phillw: and i dont want to "hack" my way to getting it done :D | 01:23 |
| stlsaint | ooooohhhhhhh | 01:23 |
| EpicCyndaquil | I seriously blame this motherboard | 01:24 |
| EpicCyndaquil | GAH | 01:24 |
| EpicCyndaquil | something is wrong with this thing | 01:24 |
| EpicCyndaquil | sometimes things boot, sometimes they don't, keep in mind I try multiple times touching nothing but my power button | 01:24 |
| phillw | EpicCyndaquil: I'm running out of ideas, I'm not to sure what to suggest next :( | 01:24 |
| EpicCyndaquil | throw it against the wall? :D | 01:25 |
| phillw | did the cd self test as okay? | 01:25 |
| EpicCyndaquil | yes | 01:25 |
| phillw | try the alternate install option. | 01:25 |
| EpicCyndaquil | where? | 01:26 |
| EpicCyndaquil | the minimal you mean? and is that a different ISO? | 01:26 |
| phillw | when the cd boots up, it is listed as alternate / text based installtion in the menu where you see the self test option. | 01:26 |
| EpicCyndaquil | I don't see that O_o | 01:27 |
| phillw | EpicCyndaquil: what version did you download? | 01:27 |
| EpicCyndaquil | let me try the install one more time | 01:27 |
| EpicCyndaquil | the torrent | 01:27 |
| EpicCyndaquil | 10.10 torrent | 01:27 |
| phillw | 10.10 or 10.04 ? | 01:27 |
| phillw | 10.10 has alternate on it. | 01:27 |
| EpicCyndaquil | maybe I'm going blind from being sick of this -_- | 01:28 |
| EpicCyndaquil | it's not lubuntu's fault, it's the computer | 01:28 |
| phillw | EpicCyndaquil: sleep is always a good healer of frustration :) | 01:28 |
| EpicCyndaquil | very true | 01:28 |
| EpicCyndaquil | this might be the last time I work with a used mobo | 01:28 |
| EpicCyndaquil | they always give me nothing but trouble | 01:28 |
| hblount | hi. is there a way to mount an image in wine so it is recognized by game in wine? | 01:31 |
| EpicCyndaquil | got a bunch of buffer I/O, squashfs, and phy0 errors | 01:31 |
| EpicCyndaquil | regardless, it still seems to be starting | 01:32 |
| phillw | hblount: I have no idea, but http://ubuntuforums.org/forumdisplay.php?f=313 is the wine section of the main forum area, I'd suggest asking there. | 01:32 |
| hblount | phillw: ok thanks | 01:33 |
| EpicCyndaquil | "failed to run /usr/bin/ubiquity as user root" when I go to install... | 01:33 |
| EpicCyndaquil | now it seems like my dvd drive has given up on lubuntu | 01:35 |
| EpicCyndaquil | perhaps it's time for me to do the same for now | 01:35 |
| EpicCyndaquil | WAIT IT'S WORKING xD | 01:35 |
| phillw | EpicCyndaquil: I'd suggest cleaning the cd drive lens. The burn and read leds are different, "If you can get hold of one - Clean the CD drive with a CD-Drive cleansing CD, burning an ISO CD requires far greater precision than burning, say, a music CD. ( just type in cd lens cleaner into your favourite search engine, they can be bought for about 3 USD / 1 GBP)" | 01:35 |
| EpicCyndaquil | I know that's not the issue, it's the computer reading it | 01:36 |
| EpicCyndaquil | and the optical drive reading it is nearly new | 01:36 |
| EpicCyndaquil | good suggestion, but I'm 110% sure that's not the issue | 01:37 |
| EpicCyndaquil | Installer crashed ;_; | 01:52 |
| mbergamo | phillw: I tried that wired network configuration, but there was no difference :/. I'm outrageously stumped on this, I don't know why I'm struggling so hard. I'll make a forum post and make it outrageously specific. | 01:54 |
| mbergamo | phillw: and if i get it to work maybe i'll make a wiki specific for setting up my broadcom bcmxx on Lubuntu without any internet connection. | 01:54 |
| EpicCyndaquil | I think lubuntu installed but failed to set up the bootloader, can I check this, and if so, how do you suggest a fix? | 01:55 |
| phillw | mbergamo: I'm stumped, I had no problems with broadcom in lubuntu; it simply showed up in hardware drivers :( | 01:55 |
| phillw | EpicCyndaquil: without internet connection, no. with internet connection yes :) | 01:56 |
| EpicCyndaquil | phillw, wired ethernet? | 01:57 |
| EpicCyndaquil | if so, time to move to the next room ;P | 01:57 |
| mbergamo | phillw: when i click on additional drivers it gives a prompt, "Downloading package indexes failed, please check your network status. Most drivers will not be available." And then it says "no proprietary drivers are in use on this system". | 02:37 |
| phillw | mbergamo: pass. :( | 02:40 |
| mbergamo | phillw: bah! | 02:40 |

| bioterror | damn | 06:42 |
| bioterror | I figured out how to start programs without decorations | 06:42 |
| bioterror | I wonder who asked it | 06:42 |
| Goodgame | bioterror, you found me on ubuntuforums :D | 10:08 |
| bioterror | Goodgame, did you like my posting? | 10:08 |
| Goodgame | bioterror, I don't undestand when you explain how to launch them but I think I've understood the part for the position (not tried yet, just woken up, will try this afternoon) | 10:09 |
| bioterror | you make yourself a file | 10:09 |
| bioterror | application.desktop | 10:09 |
| bioterror | and put that kind of information there | 10:09 |
| bioterror | it's an example file of my conky.desktop | 10:09 |
| bioterror | which launches conky on my desktop | 10:10 |
| Goodgame | can you explain me each line please? | 10:10 |
| Goodgame | we can write whatever we want in "comment" don't we? | 10:10 |
| bioterror | yes | 10:11 |
| Goodgame | exec is the same as we enter in A-F2 ? | 10:11 |
| bioterror | yes | 10:11 |
| Goodgame | What does the 4 lasts lines mean? | 10:12 |
| bioterror | just random stuff for the lxde menu ;) | 10:12 |
| Goodgame | so, all the time terminal=false? | 10:12 |
| bioterror | yes | 10:12 |
| Goodgame | (except maybe when I wanna launch the terminal :-°) | 10:12 |
| bioterror | it means you dont want to launch that in terminal | 10:13 |
| bioterror | yes | 10:13 |
| Goodgame | everytime type=application? | 10:13 |
| bioterror | something like that | 10:13 |
| Goodgame | "something like that"? | 10:13 |
| Goodgame | what does it mean? | 10:15 |
| bioterror | yeah | 10:15 |
| bioterror | put application in there | 10:15 |
| Goodgame | :-° | 10:15 |
| Goodgame | and what is categories? | 10:15 |
| bioterror | leave blank, as I said it's for the lxde menu | 10:16 |
| bioterror | you're not going to put it in there | 10:16 |
| Goodgame | and I just copy the last line everytime? | 10:16 |
| bioterror | what+ | 10:17 |
| Goodgame | Categories= | 10:17 |
| Goodgame | OnlyShowIn=GNOME;XFCE;LXDE; | 10:17 |
| Goodgame | sorry | 10:17 |
| Goodgame | OnlyShowIn=GNOME;XFCE;LXDE; | 10:17 |
| bioterror | yeah | 10:18 |
| Goodgame | ok thanks a lot | 10:19 |
| Goodgame | gotta go | 10:19 |
| Goodgame | gonna try later | 10:19 |
| Goodgame | bye | 10:19 |
| Goodgame | bioterror, in your answer you explain how I can explain where I want my windows, but not how to specify their sizes. is there a way, | 14:21 |
| bioterror | oh | 14:22 |
| bioterror | you're so demanding | 14:22 |
| Goodgame | :D | 14:22 |
| Goodgame | their's no interet to put windows in specific places if they don't have the right size (they could cross each other) | 14:23 |
| bioterror | nope, that's not supported in openbox, I think | 14:26 |
| Goodgame | weird | 14:27 |
| Goodgame | thanks a lot | 14:27 |
| bioterror | well | 14:27 |
| bioterror | yeah | 14:27 |
