dan____hello. I'm interested in trying lubuntu on a ppc mac mini.I couldn't find an ISO for this hardware.  I already have ubuntu 10.04 on it but would like something lighter. Do I have to start from square 1?17:00
bioterroryes17:00
bioterrorgrab ubuntu mini for ppc and install lubuntu-desktop17:01
bioterrorhttp://cdimage.ubuntu.com/ports/releases/maverick/release/17:01
bioterroror17:02
bioterroryou can install lubuntu-desktop (if there's one for the PPC ;)17:02
bioterrorand then make pure lxde17:02
bioterrorhttp://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/purelxde17:02
dan____hey, thanks.17:02
bioterrordan, check first17:03
bioterrorapt-cache show lubuntu-desktop17:03
bioterrorif you repositories have that meta package17:03
bioterroryour17:03
bioterrorotherwise it's going to be a pain in the ass17:03
dan____ok17:03
dan____I'd do it this minute, except it's tied up currently with a job17:04
bioterror:)17:04
bioterrorI'm a little sceptic about this17:05
dan____why skeptical?17:05
bioterrormaverick (metapackages): Lubuntu Desktop environment [multiverse]17:08
bioterror0.18: amd64 i38617:08
bioterrorwell, packages search doesnt give much info for ubuntu-desktop neither17:08
bioterrorand that should exist17:09
dan____@bioterror: so I think my first step should be downloading the latest ISO and seeing whether lubuntu is a desktop option.17:13
meetingologydan____: Error: "bioterror:" is not a valid command.17:13
bioterrorwell17:13
bioterrorif you're running ubuntu atm.17:13
bioterroryou can try to search from the repos first17:13
bioterrorbut lubuntu developers are using i686 (i585 too ;) and AMD6417:14
dan____thanks for your imput.17:15
bioterrorcan you confirm that17:15
bioterrorI would like to know17:15
bioterrordan, but you can try http://www.morphos-team.net/downloads.html MorphOS ;)17:16
dan____yes, I will try. Sorry, not doing a good job of multitasking17:18
bioterrornot a problem17:18
dan____bio, are you around often? I'm downloading morphos now. Gonna bill some hours but can get back with you on progress if you'd like.17:23
bioterrordid you find that lubuntu-desktop package17:23
bioterrorwell17:23
bioterrorMorphOS is operating system of it's own17:23
dan____right17:24
bioterrorbut can you find a lubuntu-desktop package from your ubuntu17:24
bioterrorand I'm here often17:24

bioterrornice20:25
dan_so had some success20:25
bioterrorlubuntu-artwork?20:25
dan_Not sure why chromium couldn't be installed.20:25
dan_any ideas20:25
dan_I just did something stupid and I don't know how to get out of it.20:27
dan_I logged on using the xbox desktop I think? get nothing but a blank screen20:28
dan_by the way, yes to artwork.20:28
bioterrorxbox?20:29

dan_yes, openbox20:30
dan_sorry20:30
dan_can I reset my default desktop from the command line?20:31
dan_then reboot?20:31
bioterrorcan you explain a little more20:31
dan_looks like I have auto login set to yes.  I wanted to see what openbox, so set it as my environment (I thought temporarily).20:33
dan_after logging in, got nothing, so went to another terminal and rebooted20:34
dan_of course, it's now booting directly into openbox and I don't have the slightest clue how to get out of this environment20:34
dan_I'm gonna owe you a beer by the end of the day. :-)20:35
bioterror:D20:37
bioterrorwell20:37
bioterroryou can run lxpanel on top of the Openbox20:37
bioterrorseems like you're still missing lots of lubuntu settings20:37
dan_I agree.... missing a lot. I don't even have any chrome frames.... literally a blank screen with a mouse.20:40
bioterroryou're missing Gtk2-themes and stuff like that20:40
dan_yup20:41
bioterroror decorations20:41
bioterrorhard to say20:41
dan_so how can I get this to not auto login?20:41
dan_is there a command line answer?20:42
szczurdan_, try to install lxde-common first20:42
szczurand then reboot20:42

dan_done. still mouse only20:45
szczurdoes it show any error messages? anything?20:47
dan_no errors20:47
bioterrordan, do you have in .xinitrc "exec startlxde"20:47
bioterrorfound some documents saying it could be okay20:49
dan_I think I understood.  when I ran that command, it got back a message that "a window manager is already running on screen 0"20:50
dan_Look, I'm willing to pursue this in the interest of science, but I don't want this to be a time suck.20:51
bioterrorhmm20:51
dan_I have nothing of importance on this machine yet20:51
bioterrorcan you say in terminal "sudo apt-get install lxde"20:51
dan_I can pull the cord at any time.20:52
dan_doing that now, bio20:53
dan_I assume I should reboot when finished, right?20:54
bioterroror logout and login20:55
bioterrorif you installed alot of stuff20:56
dan_rebooted. same. mouse only.20:57
dan_Look, I don't think this is worth our collective time.20:58
szczurdan_, can you tell me the content of /etc/xdg/lxsession/LXDE/desktop.conf20:58
szczurthe window_manager line20:58
szczurjust do cat /etc/xdg/lxsession/LXDE/desktop.conf20:58
bioterrorI think it's close to empty ;)21:00
dan_window_manager=openbox-lxde21:00
szczurand make sure that in /etc/lxdm/lxdm.conf file in "session" line, you have /usr/bin/startlxde entry (and it is uncommented)21:01
szczurhmm, same for me21:01
dan_note, this is the only line under [session[21:01
dan_[session]21:01
szczuryeah, i know21:02
szczurcheck the /etc/lxdm/lxdm.conf file. if it says /usr/bin/startlxde in session then i'm out of ideas21:03
* szczur keeps finding himself on searching for filename autocompletion feature in IRC clients :P21:04
bioterrorweechat can complete... ;)21:04
dan_all I have in the /etc/lxdm directory is a "default.conf" file21:05
szczurso check contents of this file21:05
dan_sz, not sure what I'm looking for in this file. it's another short one21:07
szczurthere should be line looking like this > #session=/usr/bin/startlxde21:07
szczuruncomment it of course :)21:08
dan_the session line reads : "session=/usr/bin/startlubuntu"21:08
szczurchange it to /usr/bin/startlxde (just testing something)21:09
szczurif it change anything in behaviour21:09
szczuri hope for it21:10
szczurbioterror, maybe i'll cast weechat someday :)21:13
