UBuxuBU | did lubuntu leave out the "search" feature in synaptic? | 06:58 |
UBuxuBU | my search bar is ubusable wheni am in my lubuntu vm | 06:58 |
UBuxuBU | unusable* | 06:58 |
JoeMaverickSett | UBuxuBU: if you want it here is how; http://joemavericksett.wordpress.com/2010/11/03/quick-search-box-on-lubuntu/ | 07:01 |
UBuxuBU | ty | 07:03 |
UBuxuBU | but why is it not working | 07:03 |
JoeMaverickSett | UBuxuBU: what is not working? you mean on default? | 07:04 |
UBuxuBU | is that all part of being lightweight | 07:04 |
UBuxuBU | why do i have to do the installs to make it work | 07:04 |
UBuxuBU | why di i have to fix it on a freash install | 07:05 |
UBuxuBU | did the lubuntu team disable it to be lightweight | 07:05 |
UBuxuBU | oh well thanks JoeMaverickSett | 07:14 |
JoeMaverickSett | UBuxuBU: no problem. i think it was disabled because of taking up resources, but i'm not entirely sure though. | 07:18 |
JoeMaverickSett | UBuxuBU: i'll ask someone like phill when they wake up/are around. :) | 07:18 |
UBuxuBU | i just wanted to make sure my install wasnt corrupt | 07:19 |
bioterror | apt-get-xapian uses lots of diskspace | 07:20 |
bioterror | and as lubuntu is targetted for the lowend computer, you dont want to waste ~1GB of harddrive for the apt-library on your computer | 07:21 |
bioterror | I'm the one to blame on this | 07:21 |
bioterror | as I took this one to mailing list once | 07:21 |
bioterror | if I remember right | 07:21 |
bioterror | or did I | 07:21 |
bioterror | I think I did | 07:22 |
bioterror | well, you dont need that anyways as you have apt-cache | 07:22 |
UBuxuBU | no wonder they call u bioterror | 07:23 |
bioterror | yeah, I tend to fart alot | 07:23 |
bioterror | might be becouse of my lactose intolerance | 07:24 |
bioterror | I really had a shattered memory of this thingie | 07:29 |

Mark76 | I don't even know where the error logs are kept | 18:11 |
Mark76 | Come to think of it, I don't even know what a kernel panic looks like | 18:11 |

Mark76 | I don't think Linux does sectors | 18:16 |
pip__ | lubuntu natty | 18:16 |

ChrisDruif | Here :P | 23:23 |
ChrisDruif | What's wrong :P | 23:23 |
arkanabar | I've installed the Gnome Sound recorder, but on launch it says my sound settings are invalid, and I need to run "Sound Preferences" under the System Preferences menu. what do I need to do? | 23:36 |
arkanabar | specifically, what should I get/run to fix my audio capture settings? | 23:39 |
ChrisDruif | Sorry, I don't know. But seeing it doesn't work atm, it might be worth to just try different settings? Seeing you can't "break" anything? | 23:41 |
arkanabar | I don't seem to have any app to modify audio capture settings. Could you suggest one? | 23:42 |
ChrisDruif | Isn't Sound Preferences in System Preferences? | 23:47 |
arkanabar | not for me. can you look at the properties of the link and tell me the executable it invokes? | 23:48 |
ChrisDruif | Link? :S | 23:49 |
arkanabar | menu entry. right-click the menu entry, and select "properties" from the context menu | 23:51 |
ChrisDruif | I'm not running Lubuntu atm....brb, gonna install it on VM :D | 23:52 |
arkanabar | heck, do it in GNOME!! the app will work, I just need to know its name so I can invoke it | 23:53 |
ChrisDruif | It's just called Sound in Gnome (System>Preferences>Sound) | 23:55 |
