Bookman | Is there a Linux flavour that boots extremely quickly on standard hardware into just a browser? | 02:23 |
---|---|---|
UndiFineD | Bookman, chrome os ? | 02:26 |
Bookman | Yes, but not a standard Linux disto | 02:27 |
Bookman | *distro | 02:28 |
UndiFineD | well you could look for an mirco linux distro, like Damn Small Linux | 02:29 |
UndiFineD | but I am not sure on the browser | 02:30 |
Bookman | Yeah, tried a few of those, still not quick enough. This little netbook I bought my son for Christmas books so fast. Maybe 7 seconds or something | 02:30 |

sagaci | any suggestions for a dropdown terminal in lxde | 05:02 |
sagaci | nvm, guake doesn't need gnome deps | 05:03 |
sagaci | i don't know whether it's a bug but it's quite annoying when you right click and the top option is already highlighted | 05:05 |
bioterror | what? | 05:10 |
bioterror | I use urxvt and it fills my needs | 05:10 |

Alex-Zion | hi everyone , I have a problem to be machine boot up a live Lubuntu 10.10, the machine where I'm trying is an old P3 with 192 mb of ram .... | 15:21 |
Alex-Zion | there is some special options to pass to the kernel , in order to get a kind of basic system boot !?! | 15:22 |
Alex-Zion | anytimeI tried , the system freeze at "Generating locales ... it_IT.UTF-8..." | 15:23 |
Alex-Zion | after that not even the cd get used anymore .... | 15:24 |
Yorvyk | Alex-Zion, what graphics card do you have? | 15:27 |
Alex-Zion | is an integrated one ....,the machine where I'm trying is an Acer veriton FP2....,a quite strange machine | 15:28 |
Alex-Zion | Yorvyk: is thisone http://ixbtlabs.com/articles/acerveritonfp2/ , any idea !?! | 15:36 |
Yorvyk | Alex-Zion, Probably not enough RAM due to the on-board video | 15:39 |
Yorvyk | I have had some success by adding 'i915.modeset=1' to the boot line | 15:43 |
Yorvyk | or 'i915.modeset=0' | 15:45 |
pip | Yorvyk; no joy here with upgrade. It bombs out after a problem with python2.7 minimal. | 15:47 |
Yorvyk | pip, You should have upgraded yesterday, they are upgrading Python, as you’ve found, and warned of problems. | 15:48 |
pip | from what I can gather it's a waiting game .........:-( | 15:49 |
Yorvyk | or good luck with diving in at just the right time :) | 15:49 |
pip | lol. I suppose a mini.iso install will be pointless also, as it'll hit the same issue, yes? | 15:50 |
Yorvyk | pip, not necessarily as you aren’t doing an upgrade, it’s clean install | 15:53 |
AlexZion | Yorvyk: I tried with "i915.modeset=1" andI got a restart, noe I'm trying with "i915.modeset=0" but seemsthe same as before ... | 15:54 |
Yorvyk | AlexZion, OK | 15:54 |
pip | well okay......... | 15:54 |
Yorvyk | pip, it can’t be any worse going the minimal install root if you really want Natty Alpha | 15:56 |
pip | shame I can't get any natty related discs to run on this machine | 15:56 |
pip | which I find really weird | 15:56 |
Yorvyk | pip, it what way will they not run | 15:57 |
pip | they take me to the options list & whatevr I choose then to a black screen with an underscore type cursor which doesn't react to anything | 15:58 |
pip | hard shutdown is the only way out | 15:59 |
pip | oddly the full isos dont even give me that on 2 boxes at home. Those boxes just boot as usual, ignoring the discs | 16:01 |
Yorvyk | pip, the later two sound like the boot order in BIOS | 16:03 |
pip | haha, I checked that really early on hoping it was that simple... | 16:04 |
pip | I've been proper baffled for a week now :) | 16:04 |
pip | I thought I'd found a way out with the mini.iso as I managed an install on one of the home boxes a couple of days ago | 16:05 |
pip | it's just this machine, & yet it boots everything else I throw at it | 16:05 |
pip | this is the main reason for upgrading as I do prefer a clean install | 16:06 |
pip | I did notice that using k3b to burn full isos it seemed to be finding less data than I'd downloaded | 16:08 |

pip | I'm gonna try again....... | 16:23 |
bioterror | that poor pip guy has lost of burning issues | 16:23 |
bioterror | it really cant be that hard | 16:23 |
bioterror | lots | 16:24 |
mikedep333 | hey | 18:46 |
mikedep333 | I thought I'd report a bug on lubuntu.net | 18:46 |
mikedep333 | "get lubuntu" links to 10.10 maverick | 18:47 |
mikedep333 | but "release notes" links to those for lucid lynx (10.04) | 18:47 |
stlsaint | mikedep333: they may have not just updated that part of the page yet | 18:48 |
mikedep333 | stlsaint, lubuntu 10.10 was released back in october | 18:48 |
mikedep333 | stlsaint, I'm pretty sure they've left that part not updated for 2 months now | 18:48 |
mikedep333 | also, the 10.10 release notes are very important as they list the no longer supported CPUs | 18:49 |
mikedep333 | I wonder if the lack of K6 support includes the K6-2 | 18:49 |
Yorvyk | mikedep333, the release notes are for the 10.04 beta which is even worse :( | 18:58 |
mikedep333 | Yorvyk, good catch | 18:58 |
mikedep333 | Yorvyk, are you a lubuntu dev? who can we report this to? | 18:58 |
mikedep333 | I looked on the website for a webmaster contact link or something. | 18:58 |
Yorvyk | mikedep333, I’ll put a note on the mailing list and hope the appropriate people see it. | 18:59 |
mikedep333 | Yorvyk, great | 18:59 |
mikedep333 | I would really like to help this project over the next month as I graduate from college in a week, but my last attempts to program in C didn't go well. I'm much better at java and scripting. | 19:01 |
Jorvyk | mikedep333, you don’t have to program to help | 19:12 |
mikedep333 | true | 19:12 |
mikedep333 | atlhough last time I tried to report a bug (if you isntall 10.10 from mini or alternate cd, add the ppa, update, and install lubuntu-desktop, it won't let you use gksudo), the develoepr wouldn't believe me | 19:13 |
mikedep333 | *the developer in this channel | 19:14 |
Jorvyk | don’t know why not as it is listed as a problem in the wiki | 19:14 |
Jorvyk | as I’ve have the same problem | 19:15 |
mikedep333 | lol | 19:15 |
mikedep333 | that was 2 months ago | 19:15 |
mikedep333 | link? | 19:15 |
mikedep333 | oh, wow | 19:16 |
mikedep333 | maybe that guy did confirm it | 19:16 |
mikedep333 | so me reporting the bug informally on this channel did accomplish something ;) | 19:16 |
Jorvyk | Probably | 19:17 |
Jorvyk | BTW the AMD k5-2 won’t work with 10.10 | 19:17 |
mikedep333 | Jorvyk, the non-profit I work for has a K6-2 | 19:18 |
mikedep333 | *volunteer for | 19:18 |
mikedep333 | that's what I was referring to | 19:18 |
mikedep333 | ok | 19:19 |
mikedep333 | google is my friend | 19:19 |
Jorvyk | !0.04 is OK and it is hoped that we can keep it updated so at least the LXDE parts are the latest | 19:19 |
mikedep333 | the k6-2 is considered i586, so it's not supported | 19:19 |
mikedep333 | Jorvyk, how do you contribute to lubuntu? | 19:19 |
mikedep333 | yeah, I know | 19:19 |
mikedep333 | it's ok, the museum probably won't use that K6-2 system anyway | 19:20 |
Jorvyk | I meant k6 not k5 | 19:20 |
mikedep333 | it's being replaced by a ~50 mhz faster celeron :/ | 19:20 |
mikedep333 | I hope 10.04 will continue to be a usable and compatible OS for aging computers with i586s | 19:21 |
mikedep333 | does 10.04 have the software center? | 19:21 |
Jorvyk | I do testing and have started to do some parts of the bug triaging | 19:21 |
mikedep333 | lubuntu 10.04 that is | 19:21 |
mikedep333 | gotcha | 19:22 |
mikedep333 | you know | 19:22 |
mikedep333 | I think www.lubuntu.net needs to have a visible and user-friendly list of features/software that is installed by default | 19:22 |
Jorvyk | no lubuntu doesn’t have the software centre as it is a bit of a resource hog | 19:22 |
mikedep333 | yeah, gotcha | 19:24 |
mikedep333 | appnr? | 19:24 |
mikedep333 | http://appnr.com/ | 19:24 |
mikedep333 | I think that only works with firefox (which has the appropriate plugin) | 19:24 |
mikedep333 | btw | 19:26 |
mikedep333 | are there any good solutions to flash on old machines running Lubuntu? | 19:26 |
mikedep333 | minitube perhaps? | 19:26 |
mikedep333 | although a youtube update just broke compatiblity, so you have to use the minitube PPA with it's latest update | 19:27 |
mikedep333 | *its latest update | 19:27 |
Yorvyk | hi | 20:08 |
Jorvyk | hello | 20:08 |
