[02:23] Is there a Linux flavour that boots extremely quickly on standard hardware into just a browser? [02:26] Bookman, chrome os ? [02:27] Yes, but not a standard Linux disto [02:28] *distro [02:29] well you could look for an mirco linux distro, like Damn Small Linux [02:30] but I am not sure on the browser [02:30] 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 === AndrewMC changed the topic of #lubuntu to: Lubuntu 10.10 has been released || Please use the Bit-Torrent to download at http://j.mp/lu-10-10 || Off-topic discussion in #lubuntu-offtopic || Documentation can be found at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Lubuntu [02:32] Bookman, Ubuntu can do 15 [02:32] Not on my machines!

[03:17] AndrewMC, no conversation is better than offtopic conversation? [03:18] Bookman: off topic to #lubuntu-offtopic please [03:18] AndrewMC, got you! [04:15] hi #lubuntu [04:16] hi === devil__ is now known as IAmNotThatGuy [05:02] any suggestions for a dropdown terminal in lxde [05:03] nvm, guake doesn't need gnome deps [05:05] 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 [05:10] what? [05:10] I use urxvt and it fills my needs === Mohan_chml is now known as IAmNotThatGuy [11:58] wb IdleOne =] [15:21] 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 .... [15:22] there is some special options to pass to the kernel , in order to get a kind of basic system boot !?! [15:23] anytimeI tried , the system freeze at "Generating locales ... it_IT.UTF-8..." [15:24] after that not even the cd get used anymore .... [15:27] Alex-Zion, what graphics card do you have? [15:28] is an integrated one ....,the machine where I'm trying is an Acer veriton FP2....,a quite strange machine [15:36] Yorvyk: is thisone http://ixbtlabs.com/articles/acerveritonfp2/ , any idea !?! [15:39] Alex-Zion, Probably not enough RAM due to the on-board video [15:43] I have had some success by adding 'i915.modeset=1' to the boot line [15:45] or 'i915.modeset=0' [15:47] Yorvyk; no joy here with upgrade. It bombs out after a problem with python2.7 minimal. [15:48] pip, You should have upgraded yesterday, they are upgrading Python, as you’ve found, and warned of problems. [15:49] from what I can gather it's a waiting game .........:-( [15:49] or good luck with diving in at just the right time :) [15:50] lol. I suppose a mini.iso install will be pointless also, as it'll hit the same issue, yes? [15:53] pip, not necessarily as you aren’t doing an upgrade, it’s clean install [15:54] 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] AlexZion, OK [15:54] well okay......... [15:56] pip, it can’t be any worse going the minimal install root if you really want Natty Alpha [15:56] shame I can't get any natty related discs to run on this machine [15:56] which I find really weird [15:57] pip, it what way will they not run [15:58] 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 [15:59] hard shutdown is the only way out [16:01] oddly the full isos dont even give me that on 2 boxes at home. Those boxes just boot as usual, ignoring the discs [16:03] pip, the later two sound like the boot order in BIOS [16:04] haha, I checked that really early on hoping it was that simple... [16:04] I've been proper baffled for a week now :) [16:05] 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] it's just this machine, & yet it boots everything else I throw at it [16:06] this is the main reason for upgrading as I do prefer a clean install [16:08] I did notice that using k3b to burn full isos it seemed to be finding less data than I'd downloaded === JoeMaver1ckSett is now known as JoeMaverickSett [16:23] I'm gonna try again....... [16:23] that poor pip guy has lost of burning issues [16:23] it really cant be that hard [16:24] lots [18:46] hey [18:46] I thought I'd report a bug on lubuntu.net [18:47] "get lubuntu" links to 10.10 maverick [18:47] but "release notes" links to those for lucid lynx (10.04) [18:48] mikedep333: they may have not just updated that part of the page yet [18:48] stlsaint, lubuntu 10.10 was released back in october [18:48] stlsaint, I'm pretty sure they've left that part not updated for 2 months now [18:49] also, the 10.10 release notes are very important as they list the no longer supported CPUs [18:49] I wonder if the lack of K6 support includes the K6-2 [18:58] mikedep333, the release notes are for the 10.04 beta which is even worse :( [18:58] Yorvyk, good catch [18:58] Yorvyk, are you a lubuntu dev? who can we report this to? [18:58] I looked on the website for a webmaster contact link or something. [18:59] mikedep333, I’ll put a note on the mailing list and hope the appropriate people see it. [18:59] Yorvyk, great [19:01] 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. [19:12] mikedep333, you don’t have to program to help [19:12] true [19:13] 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 [19:14] *the developer in this channel [19:14] don’t know why not as it is listed as a problem in the wiki [19:15] as I’ve have the same problem [19:15] lol [19:15] that was 2 months ago [19:15] link? [19:16] oh, wow [19:16] maybe that guy did confirm it [19:16] so me reporting the bug informally on this channel did accomplish something ;) [19:17] Probably [19:17] BTW the AMD k5-2 won’t work with 10.10 [19:18] Jorvyk, the non-profit I work for has a K6-2 [19:18] *volunteer for [19:18] that's what I was referring to [19:19] ok [19:19] google is my friend [19:19] !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] the k6-2 is considered i586, so it's not supported [19:19] Jorvyk, how do you contribute to lubuntu? [19:19] yeah, I know [19:20] it's ok, the museum probably won't use that K6-2 system anyway [19:20] I meant k6 not k5 [19:20] it's being replaced by a ~50 mhz faster celeron :/ [19:21] I hope 10.04 will continue to be a usable and compatible OS for aging computers with i586s [19:21] does 10.04 have the software center? [19:21] I do testing and have started to do some parts of the bug triaging [19:21] lubuntu 10.04 that is [19:22] gotcha [19:22] you know [19:22] I think www.lubuntu.net needs to have a visible and user-friendly list of features/software that is installed by default [19:22] no lubuntu doesn’t have the software centre as it is a bit of a resource hog [19:24] yeah, gotcha [19:24] appnr? [19:24] http://appnr.com/ [19:24] I think that only works with firefox (which has the appropriate plugin) [19:26] btw [19:26] are there any good solutions to flash on old machines running Lubuntu? [19:26] minitube perhaps? [19:27] although a youtube update just broke compatiblity, so you have to use the minitube PPA with it's latest update [19:27] *its latest update [20:08] hi [20:08] hello [23:14] * nh2_ just installed lubuntu on his brand new eMachines-350 netbook and is happy with it [23:15] Goodo :) [23:48] can anybody help me fix my screen resolution and mouse problems? [23:50] guess not.. [23:52] !wait | reallyfrustrated [23:52] reallyfrustrated: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. While you wait, try searching https://help.ubuntu.com or http://ubuntuforums.org or http://askubuntu.com/ [23:53] ive been trying to correct my screen resolution for 6 days....is this all that lubuntu has to offer? [23:53] my japanese language, bootlegged, buggy version of wondows is looking awesome..
