[02:23] *quite* === IAmNotThatGuy is now known as M0hi [05:02] phillw: ping [05:02] i have a bug === M0hi is now known as IAmNotThatGuy [05:03] anyone around?? === IAmNotThatGuy is now known as M0hi [05:04] hey i need to get this bug checked out before i report it [05:05] stlsaint_: well if you hang around for than 10 seconds... [05:05] *for more than* [05:06] 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] what [05:07] if anyone dares to try it here are the steps: [05:07] 1. Right click panel and select to "Add to panel" option [05:07] 2. Go to "Panel Applets" tab [05:08] 3. Select in the bottom left corner next to virtual desktops the double window "iconify" icon button [05:08] your panel should disappear along with all [05:08] running applications left in background [05:09] one reason why im running now with the nick: stlsaint_ instead of stlsaint [05:09] my irc client was left hanging as i hard kill my system >:| [05:10] if anyone else gets this same response i will file report [05:13] stlsaint_: I'd suggest reporting it to the mailing list. [05:13] mailing list? [05:14] i wouldnt file with apport or launchpad [05:14] im actually looking on lp right now in lubuntu, i dont see how to file bug as with others [05:15] phillw: considering i have had this panel issue with before without performing the same procedures im unsure what the specific component would be, [05:16] i will send to mailing list now but that doesnt offer much in the way of tracking, triaging, etc [05:16] stlsaint_: pop it on to the mailing list === M0hi is now known as IAmNotThatGuy === IAmNotThatGuy is now known as M0hi [05:16] the devs and techie people will ask you for more details [05:18] * phillw bed time for this little piglet, I will see you all later === JoeSett is now known as JoeMaverickSett [07:15] is there such a thing as a lubuntu affiliation [07:53] hi. what is the name of the gui app that lets me search and install software? [07:59] hblount: Synaptics Package Manager or Ubuntu Software Center ? [08:01] oh yeah the latter. thanks [08:01] how do i install that? [08:06] :D [08:06] hblount, apt-get is all you need ;D [08:06] you dont need software center ;) [08:06] hblount: in synaptics, it's called software-center. or sudo apt-get install software-center. :) [08:06] I've tried that couple of times at my parents-in-law and I've been really "WTF?!" [08:07] hblount: but i'd go with bioterror though. :) [08:07] JoeMaverickSett, as you always do [08:07] oh my 'lil follower :D [08:07] bioterror: aye, sir. :P [08:07] 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] im too noob [08:07] hblount, what you want to search [08:07] we can make few examples [08:08] to get you up n running with apt-get [08:08] hblount: not noob, just haven't got around to getting to know yet. :) [08:09] and lazy :P [08:10] E: Package 'software-center' has no installation candidate [08:10] :D [08:10] i tried sudo apt-get install software-center [08:13] 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 [08:14] What is the name of the window manager in lxde/lubuntu? [08:15] i want to look at diff stuff and read about em :P [08:17] jussi, Lubuntu uses OpenBox [08:19] hblount, I'm trying to figure out a example for you [08:19] bioterror: would you suggest apt-cache show to hblount 's issue? :D /me uses that even on my vanilla ubuntu. [08:19] yes [08:19] I use it alot [08:20] :D [08:20] let's say that I've been upgraded to a project manager [08:20] and I have to start coordinate some projects [08:20] and I'm like "hmmm... what software I could use for this..." [08:22] and I can use apt-cache to show me a software with command "apt-cache search project |grep management" [08:22] and I see a listing [08:22] planner - project management application [08:22] that sounds promising, right? [08:22] then I can say "apt-cache show planner |less" [08:22] and I can see something like this [08:22] Description: project management application [08:22] Planner is a Project Management application that supports Gantt charts, [08:23] resource allocation and integration with other GNOME applications. [08:23] and doesnt that Gannt charts sounds promising? [08:23] very promising. [08:23] what is the |less part? [08:24] hblount, it's same as "|more" but I can scroll with pgup and pgdown [08:24] oh [08:24] if you want to search for games [08:25] you can use like "apt-cache search mmorpg [08:25] " [08:26] cool thanks! [08:26] anything else in your mind [08:26] which one is the thing that shows cpu temp in taskbar? [08:26] if you want to find a game that's like lemmings, well, "apt-cache search lemmings" [08:27] that requires lm-sensors [08:27] and lubuntu doesnt have that kind of app for taskbar, AFAIK [08:27] hblount, http://ricecows.org/conky.png but you can configure conky to show that statics for you [08:30] yeah conky cool [08:34] how do i install that? [08:34] conky? [08:35] yeah [08:35] sudo apt-get install lm-sensors [08:35] then sudo sensors-detect [08:35] answer yes to all questions [08:36] k thx [08:37] then you need to install conky [08:37] E: Package 'lm-sensors' has no installation candidate....whats that mean? [08:37] lm-sensors - utilities to read temperature/voltage/fan sensors [08:37] hmmm [08:39] hblount, did you just say "sudo apt-get install lm-sensors"? [08:39] :| [08:41] Wed10:39 hblount, did you just say "sudo apt-get install lm-sensors"? [08:41] yeah [08:41] that's weird [08:43] hblount, is your repositories okay [08:43] have you enable all the repos [08:43] partners and stuff from the synaptic [08:43] idk. i just installed 10.10 right now with 3rd party software thing checked [08:44] yeah it's called partners [08:45] same msg when i tried sudo apt-get install software-center [08:46] sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install lm-sensors [08:47] is this update manageer equivalent? [08:48] nm [08:50] did you update your repository? [08:50] oh now it works! wtf [08:51] good [08:51] what did i do in the 30min i've had this installed? [08:51] what [08:51] i installed lubuntu 30min ago [08:52] okay [08:52] good [08:52] sudo apt-get update [08:52] that's usually suggested to do when you're dealing with packages [08:52] as you need your repositories to be up-to-date [08:52] are you now installing lm-sensors? :D [08:54] yeah! thanks bioterror! all nice then turn around and gas a bunch of ppl or what [08:54] are we going to configure that conky for you or what's in your mind [08:56] Sorry, no sensors were detected. [08:56] This is relatively common on laptops, where thermal management is [08:56] :o [08:56] handled by ACPI rather than the OS. [08:56] what kind of laptop are you running then? [08:56] or what [08:56] i swear i had it on here before [08:56] its an old acer aspire 3613 [08:57] hblount: theres some acer modules you can install iirc [08:57] not sure if they are for your model though [08:58] 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] jussi: how do i find and install acer modules? [09:00] !find acer [09:01] no bot here? [09:01] !acer [09:01] !acer [09:02] Ill put her here until we get a more permanent one [09:02] !find acer [09:02] 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] jussi, nice [09:03] !info acerhk-source [09:03] 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] oh, ubot5is here [09:03] hrrr [09:03] ubottu: part [09:04] though Ive no idea what the acerhk driver is [09:05] 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] It also has some other related functionality (depending on the model): [09:05] * controlling LEDs (Mail, Wireless) [09:05] * enable/disable wireless hardware [09:05] dam thats diff from mine [09:05] hblount: mind: It also works on notebooks from other manufacturers (some Medion, Fujitsu-Siemens, Compal, Xbook...). [09:05] i want my horizontal scroll to work on my touchpad :P [09:06] see apt-cache show acerhk-source [09:07] i see. how do i install? [09:08] nm [09:10] wow it seems big === M0hi is now known as IAmNotThatGuy [09:38] 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?) [09:39] nm-applet [09:39] oh, its using the gnome one :) [09:40] yeah [09:40] there's two apps [09:40] it's wicd or gnome-nm-applet [09:40] not that much to choose from [09:41] the gnome one is nice withthe presetup 3g stuff :) [09:41] yes [09:42] wicd is without gnome :) [09:42] and is lubuntu using ayatana notifications or ? [09:43] dunno about that [09:46] ahh, its just the notification-daemon :) === IAmNotThatGuy is now known as Mohi === Mohi is now known as M0hi === Evixion` is now known as Evixion === JoeSett is now known as JoeMaverickSett === yofel_ is now known as yofel [20:04] 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] And can I safely kill it? [20:05] yep [20:05] could you please specify your situation more [20:05] you've a ubuntu installation and you installed just lxde or lubuntu-desktop or what [20:05] bioterror, It was a regular ubuntu install, then I grabbed the lubuntu-desktop [20:05] sup folks [20:06] craigbass1976: well that explains why you have gnome running! :D [20:06] craigbass1976, http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/purelxde [20:07] bioterror, how different do you suppose the lucid version would be? [20:07] sudo apt-get remove gnome\* [20:07] bioterror: oh thats a nice little tut [20:07] sudo apt-get install lubuntu-desktop [20:08] lol, thats one heck of a one-liner [20:08] rather sudo apt-get purge :D [20:08] meh? all three? [20:11] 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... [20:12] bioterror, thanks, I'll run those and see what happens [20:12] craigbass1976, keep wired connection near you [20:12] if you happen to loose wlan connection or something [20:12] if you're using laptop [20:12] or wi-fi at all [20:13] bioterror, I'm on a wire already. [20:13] nice [20:13] bioterror, and I probably shouldn't be in the GUI while Im doing this, should I... [20:14] well [20:14] doesnt matter if you're doing it from lubuntu :D [20:14] but yeah [20:14] I usually do it from console [20:14] Ok; see you folks later. [20:14] :) [20:14] clean system he shall have [20:15] I hope so [21:33] 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] Anyone know of a way to get four desktops in the pager, rather than two? [21:35] Forget the first question, I see how to unstretch things [21:37] craigbass1976, Prefs > openbox config manager > desktops [21:38] Yorvyk, awesome. [22:10] hi everyone [22:10] :D [22:11] hi [22:12] I love Lubuntu and from now on I will come here more often [22:15] 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] thank you I will [23:51] Is there a keyboard shortcut for locking the screen or a way to bind one?
