| ubuntuman | Hey all, hoping someone can help me out. Just installed lubuntu 10.10. wondering if there is a way to save the session on shutdown (ie, open windows, apps etc) , kinda like xfce does. | 02:23 |
| phillw | ubuntuman: not that I know of, you may be better off asking on the mailing list. | 02:26 |
| wanda | How do I browse for samba network shares on lubuntu 10.10? | 04:16 |
| wanda | Seemed like pybrowser was in lucid, is that my best bet? | 04:19 |
| phillw | wanda: there was a package missed in the iso... oops :) | 04:25 |
| phillw | give me one minute | 04:26 |
| phillw | wanda: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Lubuntu/ReleaseNotes/MaverickMeerkat/#Network%20File%20Browsing%20with%20PCManFM | 04:28 |
| wanda | Thanks, I'll look it over. | 04:29 |
| phillw | there is a 10.10.1 iso due out shortly, I think that they've decided to include gvfs-backends by default as it is causing support calls. | 04:31 |
| phillw | the os-prober issue will also be fixed. | 04:31 |
| wanda | Thanks, phillw, I don't know about the os-prober issue. I didn't realize that regular releases had point releases. | 04:34 |
| phillw | wanda: yeah, Julien will be making a point release as those two issues are causing support calls on here and on the forum. | 04:35 |
| phillw | we're not a 'regular' release, 10.10 was released as a bets, so we are allowed to 'tweak' it :P | 04:36 |
| phillw | */s/bets/beta | 04:36 |
| wanda | Thanks, folks. | 05:13 |

| audio | Hi all, | 07:24 |
| audio | I want to monitor and record the changes made when installing an application. | 07:24 |
| audio | Can anyone suggest how to do it? | 07:25 |
| audio | Install some sort of monitoring app? | 07:25 |
| bioterror | why? | 07:28 |
| bioterror | I've used linux since 1998 and I've never found need for anything like that | 07:28 |
| audio | I want to try and learn how part of an app works but I can't read the code, so wanted to see what it changes. | 07:32 |
| bioterror | :D | 07:33 |
| bioterror | all you get is: dpkg -L application | 07:34 |
| bioterror | :D:D | 07:34 |
| bioterror | sudo strace apt-get autoremove | 07:35 |
| bioterror | :D | 07:35 |
| audio | That looks to list the files but does it show what changes are made to existing files? | 07:35 |
| bioterror | hahahaha | 07:35 |
| bioterror | oh for real | 07:36 |
| bioterror | check the source code | 07:36 |
| bioterror | how in the eart you think you can see changes from a binary file | 07:36 |
| bioterror | earth | 07:36 |
| bioterror | http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binary_file read | 07:36 |
| audio | If I can identify the changed files I can then compare them to unchanged versions of the same file. | 07:37 |
| audio | The changes are likely to be config files rather than binary | 07:38 |
| audio | So I am looking to identify "what changed" | 07:39 |
| bioterror | :D | 07:40 |
| audio | So I was hoping to find some sort of snapshot of before and after installation. | 07:40 |
| audio | Or a record of what happened during installation. | 07:41 |
| bioterror | :D | 07:41 |
| audio | Does apt-get install write a detailed log of what happens during installing a new app? | 07:43 |
| bioterror | if you really want to know | 07:45 |
| bioterror | sudo strace apt-get install whatever | 07:45 |
| audio | OK, I'll look into strace. | 07:46 |
| lithpr | hello. I installed lubuntu 10.10, and since installing the ati drivers, when i login my resolution is always reset to 640x480. any idea what i can do to make my resolution preference persistant? | 07:47 |
| bioterror | edit /etc/X11/xorg.conf | 07:47 |
| lithpr | how linuxy. thanks :) | 07:47 |
| bioterror | I installed last night fglrx drivers | 07:48 |
| bioterror | and no problems | 07:48 |
| lithpr | hmm, yeah, i'm having pretty bad luck with the 10.10 'buntus on this machine | 07:49 |
| lithpr | there is no setting for resolution defined in my xorg.conf | 07:51 |
| lithpr | i'll google around to see where/how i should define it | 07:51 |
| lithpr | thank you | 07:51 |

| gogeta | hey | 22:42 |
| slooksterpsv | hi | 22:42 |
| gogeta | lubuntu is awsome butn i dont like chrome | 22:43 |
| gogeta | and seem to be unable to remove it without removing the lubuntu-desktop package | 22:43 |
| gogeta | unfortanly chrome is a fail for gma netbooks | 22:44 |
| gogeta | video rendering is slow | 22:44 |
| slooksterpsv | ok | 22:47 |
| slooksterpsv | you can remove it and if it does remove lubuntu-desktop that's fine, its just a meta-package | 22:47 |
| slooksterpsv | so it won't remove lubuntu or that, otherwise you can leave it installed and ignore it | 22:47 |
| gogeta | well i knoe they whont change there defuly broswer but it shouldent be linked to there meta package so i can change it without issue | 22:48 |
| gogeta | 4gb netbook every byte counts | 22:48 |
| phillw | gogeta: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Lubuntu/DocumentationHelp#Remove%20lubuntu-desktop | 22:48 |
| gogeta | i dont whant to remove it | 22:49 |
| gogeta | im saying if i try to remove chrome it trys to | 22:49 |
| phillw | gogeta: it is completely safe to remove, please read the link I posted up. | 22:50 |
| gogeta | they need it not linked to that meta package | 22:50 |
| gogeta | so remmoving the meta will not effect updates? | 22:50 |
| slooksterpsv | nope | 22:51 |
| phillw | gogeta: it has to be for us to be able to use the --no-recomends command, which saves a pile of other stuff being installed. | 22:51 |
| phillw | gogeta: you only need to pop it back on when lubuntu changes from, say 10.10 to 11.04, then it can be removed again. | 22:52 |
| gogeta | got ya | 22:52 |
| gogeta | yea chrom is snappy on rendering but video rendering its alot slower then ff | 22:53 |
| phillw | gogeta: it's why I documented it up, it's an FAQ (Frequently Asked Question). | 22:53 |
| gogeta | but chrome is built for dule cores when it comes to that | 22:54 |
| phillw | gogeta: have you installed the lubuntu-restricted package? | 22:54 |
| gogeta | it has the same efect on all my older machines | 22:55 |
| gogeta | just how chrome is | 22:55 |
| slooksterpsv | well technically it's chromium, which is built for speed as far as I know | 22:55 |
| gogeta | spped in html rendering | 22:55 |
| gogeta | speed | 22:55 |
| gogeta | not so mutch video | 22:55 |
| slooksterpsv | right video eh.. | 22:55 |
| slooksterpsv | I play divx, flash, etc. videos just fine, but then again I'm on a brand new machine, I'll have to see if I can obtain some older hardware to test out | 22:56 |
| gogeta | any gma atom netbook | 22:56 |
| gogeta | you will see the diffrence | 22:57 |
| gogeta | not so mutch divx | 22:57 |
| gogeta | being i use the mplayer plugin | 22:57 |
| gogeta | so not anything to do with what broswer then | 22:57 |
| phillw | gogeta: the only vid channel I browse is you-tube, with the html5 trial, so I'm not to sure what the others are like. | 22:58 |
| gogeta | its to bad the vlc plugin fails at everything lol | 22:58 |
| phillw | gogeta: vlc works out of the box for me? | 22:59 |
| gogeta | i mean forweb divx streams | 23:00 |
| gogeta | it will just sitb at wating for video | 23:00 |
| gogeta | sit | 23:00 |
| slooksterpsv | gogeta: if its the gma 500 poulbsa however that's spelled yeah that's the worst chipset I've seen | 23:00 |
| gogeta | gma 450 | 23:00 |
| gogeta | most netbooks use it | 23:00 |
| gogeta | thers some tweaks you can make to make it preform | 23:01 |
| gogeta | like overlcoking to 300mhz | 23:01 |
| gogeta | 400mhz | 23:01 |
| gogeta | doesent hurt them any | 23:01 |
| slooksterpsv | that's not too bad, the 500 is horrible I actually hate myself for purchasing the netbook I got with it | 23:01 |
| gogeta | use gma booster | 23:01 |
| gogeta | and firfox or modori | 23:01 |
| gogeta | handels web vids on them alot nicer | 23:02 |
| gogeta | gma 500 serise can do 400mhz safly | 23:02 |
| slooksterpsv | tried, no difference lol - I did the tweeks in Ubuntu for it, the 3d effects were nice and only Ubuntu Netbook Edition would allow me to watch Hulu at full screen with medium-low skipping | 23:02 |
| gogeta | there just underclocked desktop gpus | 23:02 |
| slooksterpsv | yeah, if you want to continue this discussion further, join #lubuntu-offtopic for OT discussions | 23:02 |
| gogeta | booster + ff hulu medum no skips | 23:03 |
| gogeta | lol ok | 23:03 |
| slooksterpsv | really? wow the 4500 is a lot nicer | 23:03 |
