[00:21] <hblount> hi. a have lubuntu 10.10. i have problem with video not showing, only audio works. this just started happening, after i tried to "repair"  an incomplete file with VLC. now nothing wokrs and all videos only have audio and a black screen. i tried reboot,check diff video files,and use other players. same problem. can anyone help?
[00:22] <hblount> streaming vids from websites like youtube still works
[00:24] <mark76> I have no idea what to do about that
[00:25] <phillw> hblount: I can only suggest that you force a removal of VLC (mark for complete removal), your data will be safe. Then re-install it.
[00:37] <hblount> phillw: so you think that will solve video issue for any/all media players and all my video files?
[00:41] <phillw> hblount: I've never had an issue with VLC, but removing a programme will not remove your data.
[00:43] <hblount> yeah but i tried movie player and gnome mplayer, same black screen with only audio. removing vlc can still fix a problem like this?
[00:46] <phillw> hblount: I think you have more complicated problem, if you head over to http://ubuntuforums.org/forumdisplay.php?f=334 they are much more experienced with such stuff. Just use the lubuntu tag, so they know you are not running standard ubuntu :)
[00:47] <hblount> ok. thanks

[13:48] <freckle> on ubuntu I could do Ctrl-Alt-l to lock the screen, doesn't seem to work with lubuntu, any ideas how to ?
[14:35] <Yorvyk> freckle,  I believe there is but can’t remember.  Is this alternative solution any good https://lists.launchpad.net/lubuntu-desktop/msg02066.html
[15:23] <szczur> freckle, in file ~/.config/openbox/lxde-rc.xml
[15:23] <szczur> around line 268
[15:23] <szczur>     <!-- Keybindings for running applications -->
[15:24] <szczur> add these lines > http://pastebin.com/Vz0PeebK
[15:24] <szczur> logout and login again
[15:25] <szczur> then you will have screenlocking bound to Ctrl+Atl+L
[18:04] <bioterror> szczur, nice work, mate ;)
[18:30] <bioterror> where's gilir
[19:18] <szczur> bioterror, about what work you were talking about?
[19:18] <szczur> and hi all
[19:18] <szczur> :)
[19:18] <bioterror> with freckle
[19:19] <szczur> ahhh, still don't know if it worked or not :)
[19:22] <bioterror> gilir, http://ricecows.org/gdb-lxappearance3.txt does it make more sense now?
[19:24] <gilir> bioterror, crash at startup ?
[19:25] <bioterror> when choosing that elementary iconset
[19:28] <kosaidpo> guys what abot the trancparency in the lxpanel
[19:28] <kosaidpo> me / still watin fi that feature
[19:28] <mark76> You mean real alpha transparency?
[19:29] <kosaidpo> mark76: uhmm mybe im not sure fo the name but it makes the lxcpamnel tansparent
[19:29] <gilir> bioterror, please report it on launchpad
[19:30] <bioterror> gilir, I tried to find a button or link and I didnt find :D
[19:30] <bioterror> launchpad made me frustrated
[19:30] <gilir> bioterror, ubuntu-bug lxappearance
[19:31] <mark76> I find the best way to get transparency in Lubuntu is to not use the new version of PCManFM to manage the desktop
[19:32] <kosaidpo> mark76: uhm how so ,i shud remove  my current version ?
[19:32] <mark76> No, keep it. Just use Nitrogen or Feh for the wallpaper and have a dock for apps
[19:34] <mark76> Or a second LXPanel

[20:40] <mark76> Yeah. Nitrogen is only a wallpaper setter
[20:41] <mark76> But until they fix the bug in PCManFM it's the only way you can have transparency in LXDE/Lubuntu
[20:41] <kosaidpo> it works
[20:41] <kosaidpo> thanks dude :D
[20:41] <mark76> You're welcome :)
[20:41] <kosaidpo> it looks cool
[20:42] <mark76> Of course, you'll have to start it up everytime you log in
[20:42] <kosaidpo> nitrogen ??
[20:42] <mark76> Yeah
[20:42] <kosaidpo> hahah thats the bad part off this bonus
[20:42] <kosaidpo> LOL
[20:42] <mark76> Unless you add it to autostart
[20:43] <kosaidpo> im pretty sure ill let it go the next time i turn on my pc :P
[20:43] <mark76> Probably
[20:43] <mark76> BRB
[20:43] <kosaidpo> ahh yeh ifi can do that it wud be cool
[20:43] <kosaidpo> k
[20:45] <mark76> Back
[20:45] <kosaidpo> wb
[20:45] <mark76> Ta
[20:46] <mark76> I have no idea how to add things to autostart in Lubuntu
[20:46] <kosaidpo> i do : D
[20:46] <mark76> I think you have to drag the .desktop or bin file into ~/.config/autostart
[20:47] <kosaidpo> in ~/.config/autostart just take the skelton n adapt it to ur app
[20:47] <kosaidpo> you .desktop file
[20:47] <kosaidpo> not bit
[20:47] <mark76> Yeah
[20:47] <kosaidpo> i guess the .desktop its in /usr/applications right
[20:47] <kosaidpo> let me check
[20:50] <kosaidpo> its in /usr/share/applications and theres no nitogen so i have jst adapt it as isaid
[20:51] <mark76> It should be in /usr/bin
[20:53] <kosaidpo> yeh i found it but its exe file
[20:53] <kosaidpo> i guess i jst need to take a any .desktop file n change its things to nitogen
[20:54] <mark76> Yeah
[20:55] <kosaidpo> whats the inteface that it ll be used instead of gnome
[20:55] <kosaidpo> in the next release
[20:55] <kosaidpo> i forgot a lot lately
[20:57] <kosaidpo> unity i mean
[20:58] <kosaidpo> how lubuntu will do with this change ??
[21:00] <mark76> It won't
[21:00] <mark76> No Unity for lubuntu
[21:01] <kosaidpo> ahh okies good
