| ais | but i dont have anything like it | 11:08 |
| ais | can anybody help? | 11:08 |
| bioterror | you have to create tint.desktop in your .config/lxsomething | 11:22 |
| bioterror | which launches the tint2 | 11:22 |

| chandler | Hello folks. Can anyone tell me or point me to something which describes how much disk space is required for Lubuntu? I have an old eee 701 with a 4GB SSD that I'd like to put a newer operating system on, but I found that even xubuntu used up too much of its disk. | 15:18 |
| mark76 | Should be adequate | 15:22 |
| phillw | chandler: It runs happily on 2GB (including the swap). 4GB is plenty enough for it :) | 16:02 |
| mark76 | I think he means hard disk space, Phill | 16:04 |
| mark76 | Not RAM | 16:04 |
| chandler | Great, thanks. I actually just threw it in a VM to test that out, and it looks like the default installation uses about 1.3GB. | 16:04 |
| mark76 | :) | 16:07 |
| phillw | mark76: lubuntu fits snugly on 2GB, you even get room for some music etc :) | 16:07 |
| mark76 | Nice | 16:07 |
| phillw | mark76: I have it on a 2GB pen drive and similar to chandler I have a reasonable amount of room for documents etc. | 16:08 |
| phillw | I'll amend the documentation up after my shift. | 16:09 |
| mark76 | I have a 4 gig thumbdrive that needs formatting | 16:09 |

| kristian-aalborg | hi all | 17:27 |
| kristian-aalborg | is Maverick much bigger than Lucid? | 17:35 |
| head_victim | kristian-aalborg: in terms of disk space or in terms of ram usage or? | 18:18 |
| kristian-aalborg | yup, that was unspecific | 18:25 |
| kristian-aalborg | ;) | 18:25 |
| kristian-aalborg | disc usage, firstly | 18:25 |
| kristian-aalborg | it seems about the same regarding rams | 18:25 |
| head_victim | Yeah well as for exact data I'm unsure but apparently it fits on a 2gb drive ok so to me that means it can't be that big. | 18:30 |
| head_victim | Are you trying to fit it on a certain space or? | 18:30 |
| kristian-aalborg | I got exactly 2g to use | 18:33 |
| kristian-aalborg | are you sure it's not 10.4 you talk about? | 18:34 |
| kristian-aalborg | I recall seeing systems perform badly when the disk is almost full, though... so will need to slim it down | 18:35 |
| kristian-aalborg | the installer recommends 3.8 gb or something like that | 18:35 |
| kristian-aalborg | yay, I made it | 18:36 |
| === mark76_ is now known as mark76 | ||
| head_victim | kristian-aalborg: I guess the only way to be sure is to try it but then there are people talking 2.5 hours ago saying it fits on a 2gb usb drive so I'm not certain (haven't done it) but all reports are that it works. | 18:43 |
| kristian-aalborg | it did :) | 18:43 |
| head_victim | Well there you go. | 18:44 |
| head_victim | I'll start pestering some people to see if we can get hard drive space added to the "minimum specifications" part of the wiki and help guides. There are a lot of questions about that in here. | 18:44 |
| Neosano | when is the best time to migrate to lubuntu? Currently using Kubuntu on PC and Xubuntu on laptop, I wanna install lubuntu on both. Should I do it right now or should I wait for next release or smth? | 18:46 |
| kristian-aalborg | head_victim: I removed about ten megs of programs | 18:46 |
| kristian-aalborg | and I use 1,4 G now, df -h says | 18:47 |
| kristian-aalborg | however | 18:47 |
| head_victim | Neosano: depends on what you call "best time". I have Lubuntu 10.10 on a desktop and laptop right now and they are running great. | 18:47 |
| bioterror | my / is 825G :( | 18:48 |
| head_victim | I keep / under 20 gb but some of my pcs have a 2tb /home | 18:50 |
| Neosano | head_victim, if I install it right now would it be hard to upgrade to newer versions? | 18:50 |
| head_victim | Which is handy when you decide you want to mirror the Ubuntu repository. | 18:50 |
| head_victim | Neosano: it wouldn't be any more difficult than if you installed it any other time I don't believe. | 18:50 |
| Neosano | oh ok | 18:51 |
| Neosano | another question... is netboot install possible with lubuntu? | 18:54 |
| head_victim | Neosano: hang on I'll get a link | 18:55 |
| head_victim | Neosano: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Lubuntu/DocumentationHelp/MinimalInstall | 18:55 |
| === SuperHark is now known as MichealH | ||
| Neosano | damn.. my internet is so slow :| | 18:57 |
| Neosano | my neighbor is probably download something.. gosh.. | 18:57 |
| Neosano | well, it's a payback :D | 18:57 |
| head_victim | Hah that's the spirit. | 19:01 |
| Neosano | head_victim, minimal install is something different :O it's possible to install ubuntu by downloading a single file which is about 20 mb, everything else is going to be downloaded via internet | 19:01 |
| head_victim | Neosano: ah sorry, that's the smallest installation for Lubuntu that is docuemented. It doesn't mean it's not possible it's just that it means no one has written about it. | 19:01 |
| Neosano | oh | 19:02 |
| head_victim | And I have to head off to work, didn't realise the time! | 19:02 |
| head_victim | If you shoot an email to the mailing list they might be able to help out more. | 19:02 |
| Neosano | nah it's not a big problem for me | 19:03 |
| head_victim | Details are at https://launchpad.net/~lubuntu-desktop :D | 19:03 |
| head_victim | Good luck | 19:03 |
| Neosano | thank you, cya :) | 19:03 |
| kristian-aalborg | oh no | 20:33 |
| kristian-aalborg | I ran chromim as sudo | 20:33 |
| kristian-aalborg | now I can't start is as regular user | 20:34 |
| bioterror | now someone at google laughs at you | 20:34 |
| kristian-aalborg | probably | 20:35 |
| kristian-aalborg | ;) | 20:35 |
| kristian-aalborg | sill | 20:39 |
| kristian-aalborg | still | 20:40 |
| kristian-aalborg | this should not happen | 20:40 |
| phillw | kristian-aalborg: you have completely messed up your permissions on Chromium. you must always use gksudo for a programme that has your details on, if you give me few minutes I'll go get the solution for you. | 20:47 |
| kristian-aalborg | I actually think I was gksudo | 20:51 |
| kristian-aalborg | nope, history says I was sudo... | 20:51 |
| kristian-aalborg | my bad, then ;) | 20:51 |
| bioterror | you should never run browser as root | 20:52 |
| bioterror | never ever | 20:52 |
| phillw | ls -l of /usr/bin/ chro* should report report back -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 3382 2010-09-17 11:37 chromium-browser (it's the permissions I need to confirm) | 20:53 |
| kristian-aalborg | I don't have a lot of settings in it | 20:53 |
| phillw | bioterror: there are instances when running a browser with gksudo is needed for bug hunting, but you are dead right NEVER run any GUI programme as sudo. | 20:54 |
| bioterror | well not about gui | 20:54 |
| bioterror | but rather browser | 20:55 |
| bioterror | web pages are full of javascripts and other stuff like that | 20:55 |
| bioterror | there's really no difference between sudo and gksud | 20:55 |
| bioterror | o | 20:55 |
| phillw | bioterror: using sudo on any GUI programme will mess your personal data up so much, fortunately in this case it's not hard a fix. | 20:56 |
| bioterror | mess what? | 20:56 |
| kristian-aalborg | phillw: you mean /usr/bin/chromium-browser? | 20:56 |
| phillw | bioterror: using gksudo retains your own user permissions, sudo converts everything to owned by root. | 20:56 |
| phillw | kristian-aalborg: yup | 20:57 |
| bioterror | gksu is just a frontend for su and sudo? | 20:57 |
| kristian-aalborg | I get rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 3438 | 20:57 |
| phillw | bioterror: I know this from people messing firefox up, I'm going to use the same instructions for correcting it, but using the chromium profile. | 20:58 |
| bioterror | but still | 20:58 |
| phillw | kristian-aalborg: that's fine. | 20:58 |
| bioterror | I believe that there's no difference between gksudo and sudo | 20:58 |
| bioterror | just a graphical frontend | 20:58 |
| phillw | bioterror: no, gksudo retains the user permissions, sudo changes them to root. | 20:59 |
| bioterror | you mean like /home/loser/.config? | 20:59 |
| phillw | exactly, which is where kristian-aalborg is heading next, to sudo chown it back. | 21:00 |
| bioterror | http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/graphicalsudo | 21:01 |
| phillw | lovinglinux is a really good guy and has taught my so much about people messing up firefox by using sudo instead of gksudo that I'm fairly confident I can sort this permissions problem out. | 21:02 |
| phillw | bioterror: http://ubuntuforums.org/member.php?u=649167 | 21:04 |
| phillw | a really handy guy to get to befriend. | 21:04 |
| phillw | bioterror: I think his post count and tutorials say as much as needs saying :) | 21:05 |
| phillw | sorry kristian-aalborg we got side tracked | 21:06 |
| phillw | issue cd in the terminal | 21:07 |
| phillw | kristian-aalborg: that will take you to your home directory, can you paste up what the path name is please. | 21:08 |
| kristian-aalborg | suer | 21:09 |
| kristian-aalborg | sure | 21:09 |
| kristian-aalborg | one second | 21:09 |
| kristian-aalborg | sudo chown -R <user_name>:<user_name> ~/.mozilla | 21:10 |
| kristian-aalborg | should be this simple :) | 21:10 |
| phillw | yeas, except you need to change it for chromium :P | 21:11 |
| phillw | cd to .config | 21:12 |
| phillw | if you then do an ls on there, you should see the chromium area | 21:12 |
| phillw | phillw@piglet:~/.config$ ls -l chromium | 21:13 |
| phillw | they all need to be chown'ed and chgrpd to your self. | 21:14 |
| kristian-aalborg | yupee | 21:15 |
| phillw | kristian-aalborg: next time, don't use sudo, else I'll spank your bottom :P | 21:15 |
| kristian-aalborg | I forgot this was SMbuntu ;) | 21:16 |

| stlsaint | also do a reboot and before you start any other programs, pop a terminal and run: dmesg | 22:26 |
| stlsaint | that will tell you a good snapshot of what mounted properly and what didnt | 22:27 |

| bioterror | or what those were | 23:38 |
| kristian-aalborg | yes | 23:43 |
| kristian-aalborg | bioterror: the strange thing is that mp3 works in mplayer | 23:43 |
| bioterror | ofcourse | 23:44 |
| bioterror | mplayer does not use gstreamer | 23:44 |
| bioterror | and rhtytnsdfsdfbox does us | 23:44 |
