| stlsaint_ | phillw: ping | 05:02 |
| stlsaint_ | i have a bug | 05:02 |
| === M0hi is now known as IAmNotThatGuy | ||
| stlsaint_ | anyone around?? | 05:03 |
| === IAmNotThatGuy is now known as M0hi | ||
| stlsaint_ | hey i need to get this bug checked out before i report it | 05:04 |
| phillw | stlsaint_: well if you hang around for than 10 seconds... | 05:05 |
| phillw | *for more than* | 05:05 |
| stlsaint_ | phillw: yea but this potential *bug* is really pissing me off as it makes me hard kill my system and its happening quite often now | 05:06 |
| bioterror | what | 05:06 |
| stlsaint_ | if anyone dares to try it here are the steps: | 05:07 |
| stlsaint_ | 1. Right click panel and select to "Add to panel" option | 05:07 |
| stlsaint_ | 2. Go to "Panel Applets" tab | 05:07 |
| stlsaint_ | 3. Select in the bottom left corner next to virtual desktops the double window "iconify" icon button | 05:08 |
| stlsaint_ | your panel should disappear along with all | 05:08 |
| stlsaint_ | running applications left in background | 05:08 |
| stlsaint_ | one reason why im running now with the nick: stlsaint_ instead of stlsaint | 05:09 |
| stlsaint_ | my irc client was left hanging as i hard kill my system >:| | 05:09 |
| stlsaint_ | if anyone else gets this same response i will file report | 05:10 |
| phillw | stlsaint_: I'd suggest reporting it to the mailing list. | 05:13 |
| stlsaint_ | mailing list? | 05:13 |
| stlsaint_ | i wouldnt file with apport or launchpad | 05:14 |
| stlsaint_ | im actually looking on lp right now in lubuntu, i dont see how to file bug as with others | 05:14 |
| stlsaint_ | phillw: considering i have had this panel issue with before without performing the same procedures im unsure what the specific component would be, | 05:15 |
| stlsaint_ | i will send to mailing list now but that doesnt offer much in the way of tracking, triaging, etc | 05:16 |
| phillw | stlsaint_: pop it on to the mailing list | 05:16 |
| === M0hi is now known as IAmNotThatGuy | ||
| === IAmNotThatGuy is now known as M0hi | ||
| phillw | the devs and techie people will ask you for more details | 05:16 |
| * phillw bed time for this little piglet, I will see you all later | 05:18 | |

| balsaq | is there such a thing as a lubuntu affiliation | 07:15 |
| hblount | hi. what is the name of the gui app that lets me search and install software? | 07:53 |
| JoeMaverickSett | hblount: Synaptics Package Manager or Ubuntu Software Center ? | 07:59 |
| hblount | oh yeah the latter. thanks | 08:01 |
| hblount | how do i install that? | 08:01 |
| bioterror | :D | 08:06 |
| bioterror | hblount, apt-get is all you need ;D | 08:06 |
| bioterror | you dont need software center ;) | 08:06 |
| JoeMaverickSett | hblount: in synaptics, it's called software-center. or sudo apt-get install software-center. :) | 08:06 |
| bioterror | I've tried that couple of times at my parents-in-law and I've been really "WTF?!" | 08:06 |
| JoeMaverickSett | hblount: but i'd go with bioterror though. :) | 08:07 |
| bioterror | JoeMaverickSett, as you always do | 08:07 |
| bioterror | oh my 'lil follower :D | 08:07 |
| JoeMaverickSett | bioterror: aye, sir. :P | 08:07 |
| bioterror | have you managed to put up that cult of bioterror's followers :D | 08:07 |
| * JoeMaverickSett goes back to his following as the leader is here. | 08:07 | |
| hblount | im too noob | 08:07 |
| bioterror | hblount, what you want to search | 08:07 |
| bioterror | we can make few examples | 08:07 |
| bioterror | to get you up n running with apt-get | 08:08 |
| JoeMaverickSett | hblount: not noob, just haven't got around to getting to know yet. :) | 08:08 |
| hblount | and lazy :P | 08:09 |
| hblount | E: Package 'software-center' has no installation candidate | 08:10 |
| JoeMaverickSett | :D | 08:10 |
| hblount | i tried sudo apt-get install software-center | 08:10 |
| JoeMaverickSett | hblount: well, if that is the case, what it is that you wanted to find or install from software center? or you just wanted the Ubuntu Software Center? :D | 08:13 |
| jussi | What is the name of the window manager in lxde/lubuntu? | 08:14 |
| hblount | i want to look at diff stuff and read about em :P | 08:15 |
| bioterror | jussi, Lubuntu uses OpenBox | 08:17 |
| bioterror | hblount, I'm trying to figure out a example for you | 08:19 |
| JoeMaverickSett | bioterror: would you suggest apt-cache show <package> to hblount 's issue? :D /me uses that even on my vanilla ubuntu. | 08:19 |
| bioterror | yes | 08:19 |
| bioterror | I use it alot | 08:19 |
| JoeMaverickSett | :D | 08:20 |
| bioterror | let's say that I've been upgraded to a project manager | 08:20 |
| bioterror | and I have to start coordinate some projects | 08:20 |
| bioterror | and I'm like "hmmm... what software I could use for this..." | 08:20 |
| bioterror | and I can use apt-cache to show me a software with command "apt-cache search project |grep management" | 08:22 |
| bioterror | and I see a listing | 08:22 |
| bioterror | planner - project management application | 08:22 |
| bioterror | that sounds promising, right? | 08:22 |
| bioterror | then I can say "apt-cache show planner |less" | 08:22 |
| bioterror | and I can see something like this | 08:22 |
| bioterror | Description: project management application | 08:22 |
| bioterror | Planner is a Project Management application that supports Gantt charts, | 08:22 |
| bioterror | resource allocation and integration with other GNOME applications. | 08:23 |
| bioterror | and doesnt that Gannt charts sounds promising? | 08:23 |
| JoeMaverickSett | very promising. | 08:23 |
| hblount | what is the |less part? | 08:23 |
| bioterror | hblount, it's same as "|more" but I can scroll with pgup and pgdown | 08:24 |
| hblount | oh | 08:24 |
| bioterror | if you want to search for games | 08:24 |
| bioterror | you can use like "apt-cache search mmorpg | 08:25 |
| bioterror | " | 08:25 |
| hblount | cool thanks! | 08:26 |
| bioterror | anything else in your mind | 08:26 |
| hblount | which one is the thing that shows cpu temp in taskbar? | 08:26 |
| bioterror | if you want to find a game that's like lemmings, well, "apt-cache search lemmings" | 08:26 |
| bioterror | that requires lm-sensors | 08:27 |
| bioterror | and lubuntu doesnt have that kind of app for taskbar, AFAIK | 08:27 |
| bioterror | hblount, http://ricecows.org/conky.png but you can configure conky to show that statics for you | 08:27 |
| hblount | yeah conky cool | 08:30 |
| hblount | how do i install that? | 08:34 |
| bioterror | conky? | 08:34 |
| hblount | yeah | 08:35 |
| bioterror | sudo apt-get install lm-sensors | 08:35 |
| bioterror | then sudo sensors-detect | 08:35 |
| bioterror | answer yes to all questions | 08:35 |
| hblount | k thx | 08:36 |
| bioterror | then you need to install conky | 08:37 |
| hblount | E: Package 'lm-sensors' has no installation candidate....whats that mean? | 08:37 |
| bioterror | lm-sensors - utilities to read temperature/voltage/fan sensors | 08:37 |
| bioterror | hmmm | 08:37 |
| bioterror | hblount, did you just say "sudo apt-get install lm-sensors"? | 08:39 |
| JoeMaverickSett | :| | 08:39 |
| bioterror | Wed10:39 <bioterror> hblount, did you just say "sudo apt-get install lm-sensors"? | 08:41 |
| hblount | yeah | 08:41 |
| bioterror | that's weird | 08:41 |
| bioterror | hblount, is your repositories okay | 08:43 |
| bioterror | have you enable all the repos | 08:43 |
| bioterror | partners and stuff from the synaptic | 08:43 |
| hblount | idk. i just installed 10.10 right now with 3rd party software thing checked | 08:43 |
| bioterror | yeah it's called partners | 08:44 |
| hblount | same msg when i tried sudo apt-get install software-center | 08:45 |
| bioterror | sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install lm-sensors | 08:46 |
| hblount | is this update manageer equivalent? | 08:47 |
| hblount | nm | 08:48 |
| bioterror | did you update your repository? | 08:50 |
| hblount | oh now it works! wtf | 08:50 |
| bioterror | good | 08:51 |
| hblount | what did i do in the 30min i've had this installed? | 08:51 |
| bioterror | what | 08:51 |
| hblount | i installed lubuntu 30min ago | 08:51 |
| bioterror | okay | 08:52 |
| bioterror | good | 08:52 |
| bioterror | sudo apt-get update | 08:52 |
| bioterror | that's usually suggested to do when you're dealing with packages | 08:52 |
| bioterror | as you need your repositories to be up-to-date | 08:52 |
| bioterror | are you now installing lm-sensors? :D | 08:52 |
| hblount | yeah! thanks bioterror! all nice then turn around and gas a bunch of ppl or what | 08:54 |
| bioterror | are we going to configure that conky for you or what's in your mind | 08:54 |
| hblount | Sorry, no sensors were detected. | 08:56 |
| hblount | This is relatively common on laptops, where thermal management is | 08:56 |
| bioterror | :o | 08:56 |
| hblount | handled by ACPI rather than the OS. | 08:56 |
| bioterror | what kind of laptop are you running then? | 08:56 |
| bioterror | or what | 08:56 |
| hblount | i swear i had it on here before | 08:56 |
| hblount | its an old acer aspire 3613 | 08:56 |
| jussi | hblount: theres some acer modules you can install iirc | 08:57 |
| jussi | not sure if they are for your model though | 08:57 |
| hblount | i had something that was a tiny black square on the bottom right in the task bar that had green number with temp as well as little graph looking thing | 08:58 |
| hblount | jussi: how do i find and install acer modules? | 08:58 |
| jussi | !find acer | 09:00 |
| jussi | no bot here? | 09:01 |
| bioterror | !acer | 09:01 |
| hblount | !acer | 09:01 |
| jussi | Ill put her here until we get a more permanent one | 09:02 |
| jussi | !find acer | 09:02 |
| ubottu | Found: dnstracer, acerhk-source, apt-forktracer, extremetuxracer, extremetuxracer-data, extremetuxracer-dbg, extremetuxracer-extras, extremetuxracer-gimp-dev, leaktracer, opticalraytracer (and 10 others) http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=acer&searchon=names&suite=maverick§ion=all | 09:02 |
| bioterror | jussi, nice | 09:02 |
| jussi | !info acerhk-source | 09:03 |
| ubottu | acerhk-source (source: acerhk): Source for the acerhk driver. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.5.35-8 (maverick), package size 38 kB, installed size 80 kB | 09:03 |
| ubot5 | acerhk-source (source: acerhk): Source for the acerhk driver. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.5.35-8 (lucid), package size 38 kB, installed size 80 kB | 09:03 |
| jussi | oh, ubot5is here | 09:03 |
| jussi | hrrr | 09:03 |
| jussi | ubottu: part | 09:03 |
| jussi | though Ive no idea what the acerhk driver is | 09:04 |
| jussi | This driver will give access to the special keys on notebooks of the Acer Travelmate series, which are not handled by the keyboard driver. | 09:05 |
| jussi | It also has some other related functionality (depending on the model): | 09:05 |
| jussi | * controlling LEDs (Mail, Wireless) | 09:05 |
| jussi | * enable/disable wireless hardware | 09:05 |
| hblount | dam thats diff from mine | 09:05 |
| jussi | hblount: mind: It also works on notebooks from other manufacturers (some Medion, Fujitsu-Siemens, Compal, Xbook...). | 09:05 |
| hblount | i want my horizontal scroll to work on my touchpad :P | 09:05 |
| jussi | see apt-cache show acerhk-source | 09:06 |
| hblount | i see. how do i install? | 09:07 |
| hblount | nm | 09:08 |
| hblount | wow it seems big | 09:10 |
| === M0hi is now known as IAmNotThatGuy | ||
| jussi | Hrm, I seem to have lost the networking applet - can someone advise me of the name of it? (ie. the command to start it from alt+f2?) | 09:38 |
| bioterror | nm-applet | 09:39 |
| jussi | oh, its using the gnome one :) | 09:39 |
| bioterror | yeah | 09:40 |
| bioterror | there's two apps | 09:40 |
| bioterror | it's wicd or gnome-nm-applet | 09:40 |
| bioterror | not that much to choose from | 09:40 |
| jussi | the gnome one is nice withthe presetup 3g stuff :) | 09:41 |
| bioterror | yes | 09:41 |
| bioterror | wicd is without gnome :) | 09:42 |
| jussi | and is lubuntu using ayatana notifications or ? | 09:42 |
| bioterror | dunno about that | 09:43 |
| jussi | ahh, its just the notification-daemon :) | 09:46 |

| craigbass1976 | My computer is a turd, and I put LXDE on it to help speed things up. Things are sitll slow. One item I was curious about was the gnome-system-monitor. Why would this be running with lxde being my desktop? | 20:04 |
| craigbass1976 | And can I safely kill it? | 20:04 |
| Yorvyk | yep | 20:05 |
| bioterror | could you please specify your situation more | 20:05 |
| bioterror | you've a ubuntu installation and you installed just lxde or lubuntu-desktop or what | 20:05 |
| craigbass1976 | bioterror, It was a regular ubuntu install, then I grabbed the lubuntu-desktop | 20:05 |
| stlsaint | sup folks | 20:05 |
| stlsaint | craigbass1976: well that explains why you have gnome running! :D | 20:06 |
| bioterror | craigbass1976, http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/purelxde | 20:06 |
| craigbass1976 | bioterror, how different do you suppose the lucid version would be? | 20:07 |
| bioterror | sudo apt-get remove gnome\* | 20:07 |
| stlsaint | bioterror: oh thats a nice little tut | 20:07 |
| bioterror | sudo apt-get install lubuntu-desktop | 20:07 |
| stlsaint | lol, thats one heck of a one-liner | 20:08 |
| bioterror | rather sudo apt-get purge :D | 20:08 |
| craigbass1976 | meh? all three? | 20:08 |
| craigbass1976 | I'm looking through my bash history, and I really have no idea how lxde ended up on here in the first place; maybe it was a clean install and I junked it up afterward... | 20:11 |
| craigbass1976 | bioterror, thanks, I'll run those and see what happens | 20:12 |
| bioterror | craigbass1976, keep wired connection near you | 20:12 |
| bioterror | if you happen to loose wlan connection or something | 20:12 |
| bioterror | if you're using laptop | 20:12 |
| bioterror | or wi-fi at all | 20:12 |
| craigbass1976 | bioterror, I'm on a wire already. | 20:13 |
| bioterror | nice | 20:13 |
| craigbass1976 | bioterror, and I probably shouldn't be in the GUI while Im doing this, should I... | 20:13 |
| bioterror | well | 20:14 |
| bioterror | doesnt matter if you're doing it from lubuntu :D | 20:14 |
| bioterror | but yeah | 20:14 |
| bioterror | I usually do it from console | 20:14 |
| craigbass1976 | Ok; see you folks later. | 20:14 |
| bioterror | :) | 20:14 |
| bioterror | clean system he shall have | 20:14 |
| bioterror | I hope so | 20:15 |
| craigbass1976 | bioterror, I'm all set now, things are a bit quicker. Is there anyway to set spacer width? Even at 0, it kind of fills a wide space. I've read about turning stretch on and off, but I don't see where I can do that. | 21:33 |
| craigbass1976 | Anyone know of a way to get four desktops in the pager, rather than two? | 21:33 |
| craigbass1976 | Forget the first question, I see how to unstretch things | 21:35 |
| Yorvyk | craigbass1976, Prefs > openbox config manager > desktops | 21:37 |
| craigbass1976 | Yorvyk, awesome. | 21:38 |
| h4wk | hi everyone | 22:10 |
| h4wk | :D | 22:10 |
| Yorvyk | hi | 22:11 |
| h4wk | I love Lubuntu and from now on I will come here more often | 22:12 |
| Yorvyk | h4wk, if you want to meet other Lubuntu fans go to #lubuntu-offtopic as well. As there is usually somebody having a chat in there. | 22:15 |
| h4wk | thank you I will | 22:15 |
| haddiman | Is there a keyboard shortcut for locking the screen or a way to bind one? | 23:51 |
