[01:24] Hello guys, finally installed lubuntu on my main PC! Yay :) Any good cursor that suits lubuntu style? [01:24] I don't like this black one :o [01:29] ehh.. === zehrique is now known as zehrique-zzzZZZz === head_v is now known as head_victim [06:58] did lubuntu leave out the "search" feature in synaptic? [06:58] my search bar is ubusable wheni am in my lubuntu vm [06:58] unusable* [07:01] UBuxuBU: if you want it here is how; http://joemavericksett.wordpress.com/2010/11/03/quick-search-box-on-lubuntu/ [07:03] ty [07:03] but why is it not working [07:04] UBuxuBU: what is not working? you mean on default? [07:04] is that all part of being lightweight [07:04] why do i have to do the installs to make it work [07:05] why di i have to fix it on a freash install [07:05] did the lubuntu team disable it to be lightweight [07:14] oh well thanks JoeMaverickSett [07:18] UBuxuBU: no problem. i think it was disabled because of taking up resources, but i'm not entirely sure though. [07:18] UBuxuBU: i'll ask someone like phill when they wake up/are around. :) [07:19] i just wanted to make sure my install wasnt corrupt [07:20] apt-get-xapian uses lots of diskspace [07:21] 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] I'm the one to blame on this [07:21] as I took this one to mailing list once [07:21] if I remember right [07:21] or did I [07:22] I think I did [07:22] well, you dont need that anyways as you have apt-cache [07:23] no wonder they call u bioterror [07:23] yeah, I tend to fart alot [07:24] might be becouse of my lactose intolerance [07:29] I really had a shattered memory of this thingie [07:31] hi. sorry im noob, can anyone tell me how to install gz file? i want to install true combat elite game [07:36] how about extracting that file and check the README -file [07:37] i cant extract. at least not with right click menu option :P [07:37] :D [07:37] tar zxvf fooo.tar.gz [07:38] z means you have gunzip file too [07:42] gzip: stdin: not in gzip format [07:42] tar: Child returned status 1 [07:42] tar: Error is not recoverable: exiting now [07:44] would you like to share the whole name of the file with us [07:45] ET_v2.60_Linux.run.gz [07:45] gunzip ET_v2.60_Linux.run.gz [07:48] gzip: ET_v2.60_Linux.run.gz: not in gzip format [07:48] *note* are you in the directory where the .gz file is? :) [07:49] well [07:49] chmod +x ET_v2.60_Linux.run.gz [07:49] ./ET_v2.60_Linux.run.gz [07:51] yes im in the direcotry [07:52] cool there we go [07:53] crap [07:53] No write permission to /usr/local/games === zmijunkie_ is now known as zmijunkie === yofel_ is now known as yofel [17:54] is there a way to access error logs when a kernel panic has forced me to shutdown & then restart my machine? [17:55] maybe with live cd? [18:09] No idea pip [18:09] nor me [18:09] :) [18:10] Nor anyone else by the looks of it [18:10] haha, it was worth a shot......... [18:10] I suppose [18:11] Now & then I do get a list of 'stuff' but mainly just a lock up with sum pretty flashing lights [18:11] I don't even know where the error logs are kept [18:11] Come to think of it, I don't even know what a kernel panic looks like [18:12] like a lock up with some flashing lights........... [18:12] On the monitor? [18:13] caps lock & num lock for me & 1 other [18:13] dunno what thaat 1 is tho [18:13] Scroll Lock [18:14] eerrrr, dunno the one that flashes when my box is doing stuff [18:14] What kind of a box is it? [18:15] laptop, pretty old [18:15] Sounds like the hard drive to me [18:16] h'mmmmmmmmm it has got a few bad sectors [18:16] What OS? [18:16] I don't think Linux does sectors [18:16] lubuntu natty [18:16] How odd [18:16] started with the 2.6.37-xx kernels [18:16] Have you got it partitioned? [18:17] yeah, mint 10 also on there [18:17] it also happens on an old desktop at my place [18:17] Hmm [18:17] (I'm at my folks now) [18:17] Ah right [18:17] The laptop is your travel computer?

[19:52] http://ietherpad.com/IbFVN4F0Rt I made a little FAQ & Answers listing that anyone can edit. I hope others will contribute to this too [19:55] anybody know the password or how to set one for the default "penguin" user on lubuntu virtualbox? [19:55] no idea about virtualboxes [19:55] but it should act like a real OS? [19:56] so adduser [20:01] I found it, happypenguin.tw ... [22:36] bioterror, o/ [22:38] how to add an application launcher on the lxde pannel? [23:00] how to add a application launcher on lxde pannel? [23:23] Here :P [23:23] What's wrong :P [23:36] 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? [23:39] specifically, what should I get/run to fix my audio capture settings? [23:41] 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? [23:42] I don't seem to have any app to modify audio capture settings. Could you suggest one? [23:47] Isn't Sound Preferences in System Preferences? [23:48] not for me. can you look at the properties of the link and tell me the executable it invokes? [23:49] Link? :S [23:51] menu entry. right-click the menu entry, and select "properties" from the context menu [23:52] I'm not running Lubuntu atm....brb, gonna install it on VM :D [23:53] heck, do it in GNOME!! the app will work, I just need to know its name so I can invoke it [23:55] It's just called Sound in Gnome (System>Preferences>Sound)
