[13:58] to boot uo with live , needs 30 min and even more ...., is it normal !?! :O [13:58] nope [13:59] I prefer you to get some Older LTS versions as the newer versions needs some good processor speed and RAM [14:05] AlexZion: take a look at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Lubuntu/DocumentationHelp/MinimalInstall [14:07] noway man , at moment I'm trying it on a P4 3.2 Ghz is the same , so......, I think Lubuntu is not ready yet !?! [14:07] any recent *buntu versions needs at least 1 GB RAM [14:08] AlexZion, ^ [14:10] that'swhy I was thinking to Lubuntu , they said something like "can boot on a machine very old...",I'm trying on P4 3.2 Ghz CPU with 2 gb of ram and a 6600 nvidia with 256 ram , and to boot the live system more than 30 minut ...... [14:12] AlexZion: the 256 RAM will be shared for graphics, so you may find yourself struggling with the live cd version. on older systems the dpkg step can take upto an hour.. People have it running quite happily on P3 with 256 MB ram. [14:13] AlexZion: have you run the self test on the CD yet? [14:14] I already tried everythink , seems to be ok , but nothing , the live or the installation is impossible ........ [14:15] I mean I'm trying it on a pc that runs very well Kubuntu 10.10 with everything ...... [14:16] anyway, I'll leave for today ... is better .... I'll try tomorrow , maybe with something else ...... [14:16] thanks anyway ...... [14:29] Hi all === lubuntu is now known as newbie [14:31] new to Lubunto I'm trying to figure out how to browse my network and share files and folders with Win machines...

[22:22] it looks exactly the same as the current one, so what's wrong? [22:22] hyperair: what phillw just posted was what was there before /topic is what is there now [22:22] hyperair: I had ....

[22:24] ah [22:24] phillw: you could use past tenses, you know. you had me very thoroughly confused [22:24] "the topic was.." [22:24] lost is the past tense of loose? [22:24] lose [22:25] loose means that something doesn't fit properly [22:25] i.e. my pants is loose so it keeps slipping off [22:25] you probably didn't want to know that, and it's not true anyway, but it's a good example of a sentence [22:25] hyperair: now you know why have a 15 year lad from Brazil check my grammar :P [22:25] lol [22:26] phillw: well mixing up loose and lose is not as confusing as mixing up "is" and "was" [22:26] "the topic currently is" [22:26] "the topic was .... in the past" [22:27] now, if you drop the extras and replace was with is.. you pretty much get the meaning completely wrong, and it's not easily auto-correctable on the reader's end either. =p [22:27] I just pasted up what the topic was upon entry, as it was current until you altered it; "is" was correct. [22:27] i altered it? [22:27] i didn't alter the topic. O_o [22:27] 06:27:35 -!- Topic set by AndrewMC [] [Thu Dec 9 06:15:24 2010] [22:28] hyperair: ChanServ has changed the topic to is all I saw, I assumed it was you :P [22:29] phillw: it looks like AndrewMC set the topic though, not ChanServ. [22:29] and i think i didn't get teh topic change message, since i had just joined. [22:30] AndrewMC: is empowered to do so. The other reason I thought it was you is that you joined immediately after the change [22:30] ah [22:31] good timing huh >_> [22:31] but AndrewMC also prefers to use Canserv [22:31] *chansev* [22:31] mwahaha, i can mess with chanserv and blame it on AndrewMC then! >=D [22:42] lol
