| MrChrisDruif | Not that I know :) | 09:21 |
| tchouque_nourric | yes | 09:21 |
| MrChrisDruif | For Ubuntu prolly #ubuntu-fr ? | 09:21 |
| tchouque_nourric | i have some problems with dpkg , installing lubuntu on an old asus a2d , athlon xp , 256 mo . after 10 mn "running dpkg" the computer turns off ... | 09:23 |
| tchouque_nourric | overheating | 09:24 |
| MrChrisDruif | Seems like hardware issues :-/ | 09:25 |
| tchouque_nourric | there were no problems with xubuntu 8.04 | 09:26 |
| MrChrisDruif | Weird :-/ | 09:27 |
| tchouque_nourric | and no problems using lubuntu live cd , | 09:27 |
| bioterror | clean your fan | 09:28 |
| tchouque_nourric | before installing , i have updated Xubuntu ( computer has not been used since 705 days ) and no problems ... | 09:28 |
| tchouque_nourric | i have cleaned the whole computer ... | 09:28 |
| tchouque_nourric | lubuntu is now installed , but i have had the same probleme with the update ... | 09:30 |
| ochosi | tchouque_nourric: are you updating via update-manager or with apt-get? | 09:40 |
| tchouque_nourric | sorry this was not an update , just trying to repair broken packages | 09:51 |
| tchouque_nourric | i 'm going to install update manager | 09:52 |
| ochosi | so what are the specific error messages? | 09:53 |
| ochosi | or what are you running? dpkg -r ? | 09:53 |
| ochosi | sorry, not -r :) | 09:54 |
| tchouque_nourric | i was using synaptic | 09:54 |
| tchouque_nourric | it was late, yesterday and i missed copying the error message , but it was about dpkg | 09:55 |
| ochosi | ok, try "sudo dpkg --configure -a" in the terminal (because dpkg was interrupted by the overheating-shutdown) | 09:56 |
| tchouque_nourric | ok | 09:56 |
| tchouque_nourric | it works ! | 10:00 |
| ochosi | so your problem is solved? | 10:01 |
| ano | hi? | 10:02 |
| ochosi | ano: why the question mark? | 10:02 |
| tchouque_nourric | yes \o/ | 10:02 |
| ano | i don't use irc (at all really) - seems weird to drop in & out. :) | 10:02 |
| ano | just wanted to report back that i unbricked my acer aspire one happy! | 10:03 |
| ochosi | ano: you seem to contradict yourself saying _on irc_ that you're never _on irc_ ;) | 10:03 |
| ano | LOL | 10:03 |
| ano | well this is the first time in say 15 years | 10:03 |
| ano | and then it was just to see how it worked | 10:03 |
| ano | it took 24hrs of sleuthing, but i found the local (non-maximum toll) phone number for local acer support | 10:04 |
| ochosi | :) | 10:04 |
| ano | and it was like a scene from the IT Crowd | 10:04 |
| ano | have you tried plugging the battery in and out | 10:05 |
| ano | ? | 10:05 |
| ano | (duh!) | 10:05 |
| ochosi | haha | 10:05 |
| ano | i did & it worked! | 10:05 |
| ano | LOL | 10:05 |
| ochosi | ano: you surely know this one: http://xkcd.com/806/ | 10:05 |
| ano | i'm so humiliated / well humbled! | 10:05 |
| ano | oh yes - classic! on my door! | 10:06 |
| ochosi | :) | 10:06 |
| ano | got to go get lunch - see you all again (but hopefully not in another decade!) | 10:07 |
| ochosi | bon appetit | 10:07 |
| ano | mercy buckets! | 10:07 |

| cyclist_2 | Hello, there! how do I create and open a shortcut to the Desktop from a directory [say, 'Documents']? | 12:44 |
| bioterror | you want Documents Folder to your Desktop as a shortcut to ~/Documents | 12:45 |
| cyclist_2 | bioterror: I am sorry, but I came back to read your reply as promptly as I could; yes, that is what I want, but it is not working for me when I just create the symbolic link on the Desktop... | 13:02 |
| bioterror | yeah | 13:03 |
| rick_2047 | hey, is lubuntu safe enough to be given to someone very new to ubuntu and linux in general? | 13:10 |
| rick_2047 | I see there are many known issues mentioned in the release notes | 13:10 |
| Timo_ | rick_2047: what are the pc's capacities? | 13:15 |
| head_victim | rick_2047: it's fine for new users, if you read the release notes for the normal Ubuntu you'll see a lot more known issues. | 13:15 |
| rick_2047 | Timo_: its a p4 (3.2GHz) and 512+256 ram | 13:16 |
| head_victim | It's more about letting you know what you might have issues with that have already been fixed in upcoming versions but not yet in the current release. | 13:16 |
| head_victim | ANd that will be GREAT on Lubuntu (I had a 3.2 up until a week ago running Lubuntu - the MB died on me) | 13:16 |
| rick_2047 | so its as easy and not-pain-in-the-ass as the plain ubuntu | 13:17 |
| rick_2047 | ? | 13:17 |
| head_victim | I didn't think normal Ubuntu was pain in the ass either | 13:18 |
| rick_2047 | I said not pain in the ass | 13:19 |
| rick_2047 | anyways | 13:19 |
| rick_2047 | I think I will download and burn a CD then | 13:19 |
| rick_2047 | if it improves the boot up time | 13:19 |
| rick_2047 | I would do anything | 13:19 |
| rick_2047 | head_victim: what was the boot time that you had? | 13:20 |
| rick_2047 | head_victim: I had a boot time of 1:30 mins with 9.10 | 13:20 |
| head_victim | I'm not sure, I don't turn my pc's off unless the power goes out | 13:21 |
| rick_2047 | o darn | 13:22 |

| OiPenguin | Hi. I need help with enabling USB automount on a new setup of Lubuntu. | 22:08 |
| OiPenguin | lsusb displays the usb pen, however it's not automounted | 22:08 |
| bioterror | should be | 22:09 |
| bioterror | you dont see it in pcmanfm? | 22:10 |
| OiPenguin | I don't see it anywhere. What is pcmanfm? When I type pcmanfm in terminal the home directory is opened. | 22:11 |
| OiPenguin | OK. pcmanfm is the file explorer. No, it's not there. | 22:12 |
| OiPenguin | I've ticked all three options under pcmanfm --> Preferences -- Volume Managment | 22:13 |
| OiPenguin | I should add that I previously installed Mint Fluxbox, but eventually reinstalled (choosing Lubuntu) because I wasn't able to enable auto mount of usb pen. I've tried two different usb pens, both formatted fat32 and confirmed working on ordinary Ubuntu. | 22:14 |
| OiPenguin | Both /mnt and /media is empty. Auto mount of optical drive is working properly. | 22:15 |
| OiPenguin | The machine is a Packard Bell EasyNote W3344 D | 22:17 |
