| n00bo | hi..is there any particular reason or advantage why lubuntu uses openjdk instead of sun'S (now oracle's) jdk? | 00:27 |

| phillw | hyperair: maybe you can answer this one .... "(00:27:45) n00bo: hi..is there any particular reason or advantage why lubuntu uses openjdk instead of sun'S (now oracle's) jdk?" | 03:05 |
| n00bo | i'd really like to know... ^^ | 03:06 |
| phillw | I'm guessing it is about licensing issue. | 03:06 |
| n00bo | hmm | 03:06 |
| n00bo | did oracle changed sth? | 03:07 |
| hyperair | phillw: because of licensing issues? | 03:07 |
| hyperair | sun/oracle's jdk is sitting in partner.canonical.com or something | 03:08 |
| hyperair | you can always enable that repository to get it | 03:08 |
| n00bo | afk for 5 | 03:08 |
| phillw | hyperair: so it will be because it is not in the main repositories? | 03:09 |
| hyperair | yes | 03:09 |
| phillw | okies, then at least n00bo has an answer, thanks for the explanation :) | 03:10 |
| n00bo | thx | 03:11 |
| phillw | n00bo: fortunately on the real small Lubuntu team we have a couple of MOTUs. https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MOTU I just call them Sir :D | 03:15 |
| phillw | n00bo you will be receiving an invite to our offtopic channel, we chill out on there along with people from several other teams :) | 03:23 |
| n00bo | i don't like that aqualung audio player..any recommendations for another music player? something capable for listening radio-streams and mp3's without any "media-librarys"? | 03:44 |

| haddiman | Does gnome-do work well with Lubuntu or will it need to install a bunch of extra gnome libraries? Is there a similar program that's more lightweight? | 20:18 |
| bioterror | what does gnome-do do? | 20:19 |
| Mark76 | What does agadoo do do? | 20:19 |
| bioterror | A launcher application for gnome (like Launchy or Katapult) | 20:19 |
| haddiman | Oops sorry, should have specified that. It allows you to quickly start up programs or find files. You hit a keyboard shortcut and start typing and just hit enter when it finds what you're looking for. It's a lot faster than going through menus. | 20:21 |
| bioterror | alt+f2 | 20:21 |
| Yorvyk | haddiman, look at kupfer | 20:22 |
| haddiman | bioterror: Haha, very true. I already use that for some things, but I never considered it as an answer to my question. It would be the most lightweight solution but pretty limited in functionality compared to gnome-do. | 20:24 |
| bioterror | I know my systems, I've never found usage for that kind of application | 20:25 |
| haddiman | Yorvyk: Kupfer looks nice. Thanks! Some googling tells me that it is indeed more lightweight than Gnome-do. It doesn't need the mono libraries and all that. | 20:29 |
| Yorvyk | haddiman, It is rather pleasant little program | 20:30 |
| haddiman | bioterror: To each their own I guess. I just find if useful that instead of opening up PCman or Chromium and manually navigating to what I'm looking for I can just quickly type it and hit enter. | 20:30 |
| haddiman | There's also a lot plug-ins that you can do all sorts of things with. | 20:31 |
| Yorvyk | haddiman, kupfer can be a bit fiddly to get things setup how you want but worth the effort I think | 20:33 |

| Mark76 | Hey sultan2 | 20:34 |
| bioterror | haddiman, install gnome-do and bind it to alt+f2 | 20:35 |
| bioterror | problem solved | 20:35 |
| sultan2 | Hallo Mark76 ;) | 20:35 |
| haddiman | bioterror: I don't think you understand my question. My concern is that Gnome-do will install Mono and Gnome libraries. I'm looking for something with similar functionality but more lightweight. | 20:39 |
| Mark76 | Have you eaten any more pu... | 20:40 |
| bioterror | well, you cant have all those neat features without dependencies | 20:40 |
| Mark76 | No, I can't do it | 20:40 |
| haddiman | To people with Broadcom wireless cards: do you prefer the STA or the B43 drivers? My card supports both and I've gotten conflicting information as to which works better. | 20:51 |
| bioterror | people seems to use B43 more | 20:54 |
| UndiFineD | o/ | 21:17 |
| sultan2 | \o UndiFineD | 21:25 |
| foxnesn | how do i create a launcher in Lubuntu? it is not like Ubuntu where you just right click the desktop | 22:48 |
| foxnesn | guessing it is a LXDE thing | 22:48 |
| bioterror | what | 22:48 |
| bioterror | like desktop icon or what | 22:48 |
| foxnesn | app launcher | 22:49 |
| * bioterror does not compute | 22:49 | |
| Yorvyk | .desktop file? | 22:51 |
| bioterror | I was about where to find them, but seems to be something else | 22:51 |
| bioterror | havent used gnome for a while and even if i have, no idea about app launchers | 22:51 |
| Mark76 | You have to drag a .desktop file from /usr/share/applications to ~/Desktop | 22:52 |
| foxnesn | hrm | 22:58 |
| foxnesn | more of an app launcher | 22:58 |
| foxnesn | i installed an application and now i want to launch it from the menu | 22:59 |
| foxnesn | in ubuntu you can right click on the desktop and make it and then drag it | 22:59 |
| foxnesn | but there is no launcher menu item when right clicking in Lubuntu | 22:59 |
| foxnesn | seems like a weird limitation using LXDE instead of Gnome | 22:59 |
| bioterror | things are done differentely | 23:01 |
| bioterror | when you install something using apt-get, it usually goes to menu | 23:01 |
| foxnesn | yea | 23:01 |
| foxnesn | not in LXDE all the time which is fine | 23:01 |
| foxnesn | i just have to manipulate the LXpanel | 23:01 |
| foxnesn | not a big deal i got it now | 23:01 |
| foxnesn | thought maybe there was a quicker way | 23:02 |
| bioterror | good night | 23:02 |
| sultan2 | Good night | 23:06 |
