[02:52] <Bookman> I see when I start 'update manager' that 10.10 is available.  Is this a proven update?
[03:25] <Bookman> Anyone around?
[03:29] <phillw> Bookman: yes it is proven to work, if you are currently running 10.04
[03:29] <phillw> it will say ubuntu, but will actually install lubuntu 10.10
[03:30] <Bookman> I trusted in that and am in the middle of installing!
[03:32] <Bookman> lets see where it takes me.
[03:39] <Bookman> How is Lubuntu taking off?
[03:41] <phillw> Bookman: it's doing quietly well, the support team is small, so we do not want to be over-run with new comers.
[03:41] <Bookman> Cool.  I know I enjoy it!
[03:42] <phillw> Bookman: http://distrowatch.com/ we're at #11
[03:42] <Bookman> That is fantastic....
[03:44] <phillw> Bookman: you have been sent an invite
[03:44] <Bookman> I joined
[04:39] <aSSogueroZen_SX> guys, lxde is fully usable for day-to-day use?
[04:56] <BWMerlin> i have installed lubuntu 10.10 inside vmware, i choose the encrypt home folder option and now i dont have anything other then a text file saying to run another file or run a command via terminal but i cant find a shortcut to open terminal and double clicking on the file that needs to be run does nothing
[05:16] <aSSogueroZen_SX> guys, lxde is fully usable for day-to-day use actually?
[05:16] <stlsaint> aSSogueroZen_SX: yes
[05:16] <stlsaint> aSSogueroZen_SX: the lxde environment is fully stable
[11:11] <BWMerlin> i am having a problem with lubuntu
[11:12] <BWMerlin> i have nothing, all i have is a home folder telling me to run this file to set up home folder encryption but i cant run it
[11:12] <BWMerlin> how do i open a terminal using keyboard short cuts or some other way?
[11:17] <Topy44> BWMerlin: ctr-alt-t
[11:17] <Topy44> though that is handled by lxpanel i think, so it might not work if lxpanel isnt working (not sure though)
[11:18] <Topy44> you can also try ctrl-alt-(any f-key) to switch to text terminal
[11:18] <Topy44> that should work
[11:21] <BWMerlin> nothing
[11:23] <BWMerlin> cant even click on most things
[11:23] <BWMerlin> cant click on chrome
[11:23] <BWMerlin> but can click on folders
[11:23] <BWMerlin> run command doesnt work
[11:23] <BWMerlin> ctrl alt fx doesnt work
[12:04] <Topy44> ctrl-alt-f1 doesnt work?
[12:04] <Topy44> thats...odd
[12:08] <BWMerlin> nope
[12:19] <bioterror> alt+f2 is launch
[12:20] <bioterror> it should be in openbox
[12:22] <BWMerlin> nope
[12:49] <BWMerlin> anyone else have any ideas about how i can get my home folder encryption working?
[19:39] <mark76> Did Freenode just have a fit?

[21:30] <mark76> Trying to set lxdm up for semi auto login
[21:31] <mark76> BIAB
[21:33] <Kurdistan> mark I see. dont know. sorry.
[21:33] <Kurdistan> only one account here
[21:34] <Kurdistan> I am really impressed by granola. my new favorit application in lubuntu.
[21:37] <Edstein> I'm going to put Lubuntu on an Athlon 1.1GHz with 384 MB of RAM, I have 10.04, is there any compelling reason to download 10.10?
[21:38] <Kurdistan> Edstein, for me lubuntu 10.10 works better then 10.04.
[21:38] <Edstein> Are there any snafus I need to be aware of that aren't in the release notes?  Should I format ext4 or is 3 a better choice?
[21:39] <Kurdistan> before in lubuntu 10.04 I had brighntess problem
[21:39] <Kurdistan> and some hot-key
[21:39] <Kurdistan> Edstein I have used ext4 sence 9.10
[21:39] <Kurdistan> never failed
[21:40] <Edstein> Kurdistan, is it any faster?  This is a desktop system and going to a grandmother for basic internet access. Hot-keys probably aren't an issue.  I'm down for ext4, I think long fscks would confuse her.
[21:41] <Kurdistan> Edstein, lubuntu is faster then ubuntu. pretty much.
[21:41] <Edstein> I'm just wondering if 10.10 would be faster than 10.04 Lubuntu.
[21:42] <Kurdistan> Edstein, I have never had any problem with fsck under ubuntu/lubuntu but in linuxmint it was a hell. the new linuxmint gnome worked better but I always fall back to lubuntu when I try around.
[21:42] <Kurdistan> Edstein, faster in boot-time?
[21:42] <Edstein> More, general responsiveness, really, Kurdistan.
[21:43] <Kurdistan> Edstein, it is the same.
[21:43] <Edstein> What is compelling for me about 10.04 is that it is a LTS release, while a maverick desktop would stop getting updates after 18 months, I think I'll stick with 10.04.
[21:44] <Kurdistan> if you compare lubuntu 10.04 to 10.10. But if you compare lubuntu to ubuntu it is faster in all the areas.
[21:45] <Edstein> No doubt there, especially if you compare it to Mint on an older system.  I set up Lubuntu on a PIV with only 256 MB of RAM and after updates and rebooting was pleasantly surprised how responsive it was.
[21:46] <Kurdistan> Edstein, stay with lubuntu 10.04 for your granny. good choose. :P
[21:46] <Edstein> Thanks Kurdistan.
[21:46] <Kurdistan> Edstein, np.
[21:48] <Kurdistan> bye every body.
[21:55] <kosaidpo> hey guys whats that option that let firefox launch up offline ??
[22:01] <mark76> I can't do it and I'm not going to try again
[22:02] <mark76> It's impossible to set up semi-auto login on Lubuntu
