GMHhow would i access sound settings in lubuntu?04:29
bioterroropen terminal and run "alsamixer" without ""04:30
GMHoh okay, so there's nothing like a special sound settings thing.04:33
bioterrorunfortunately not04:34
GMHwell, actually, right now i'm trying to address the issue of sound being too quiet04:35
GMHwhich has been the case since i upgraded from like 7.04 to 10.04 (i'm currently on 10.10)04:35
bioterrorwith alsamixer you can check master, pcm and front04:35
GMHcurrently looking through varius ubuntuforums threads about this.  got any suggestions?  (or whether i should move this over to #ubuntu?)04:36
GMHyeah, they're all maxed.04:36
bioterrorsounds rather weird that you have them maxed out and still quiet04:37

nikinhy. on the website i can only find lubuntu 10.10. But i would like to install something with longer support... is there a 10.4 available.. or is there a reson why i should go for 10.1010:39
nikin?10:39
head_victimnikin: if it's for a desktop I would recommend the 10.1010:42
nikinhead_victim: the problem is that the computer is not mine... so i will not be able to switch to 11.04 when it arrives.10:45
head_victimYeah so if you can't update it wouldn't it be better to use the most up to date now stuff?10:46
bioterror10.10 even looks better than 10.04 ;)10:47
nikinhead_victim: there is sometihng called LTS... which means that you get security patches for a longer time period10:49
head_victimnikin: yes but if it's still running in 3+ years without and upgrade of any sort there are bound to be more problems than that10:50
nikinhead_victim: updates are done.. just upgrades are not... and i do not plan to run it 3+ years... but i do not know when i get there for installation... when does the 10.10 support end?10:55
head_victimnikin: yes but all your programs will not be updated. Ubuntu only updates programs if there is a security reason10:55
nikinI know... but i dont know of any OS that has a stable rolling release. I do not know what is new in 10.10. I a still on 10.04 on my system. I just remember that it went out with several release critical bugs.. becouse of the haste11:06

silverarroware you experts in difficult network connections?13:33
bioterrorsilverarrow, what's difficult network connection13:33
bioterrorexcept horrible PPPoE :D13:34
silverarrowI have installed lubuntu to an old laptop I  have13:34
silverarrowit works fine, and runs fast on a minimal system13:35
silverarrowI have plugged in a PCMCIA wireless that lubuntu seem to detect, it detects local network and lets me connect and asks for password, but never really connects13:36
bioterroris that network WEP or WPA?13:36
silverarrowthe same PCMCIA card have I checked in my regular computer, Ubuntu Maveric, and it works fine13:36
silverarrowWPA13:36
bioterrorhmm13:37
silverarrowAt least it connects to WPA encryption code on the Ubuntu machine13:37
bioterroris it possible to test with WEP?13:37
bioterrorbut if it works with another computer without a problem13:38
silverarrowthe laptop in question is a Packard Bell, originally came with Windows Millennium edt13:38
bioterrorI cannot understand why it wouldnt with lubuntu then13:38
silverarrowyes it is possible and I have tried both13:38
bioterrorI had few ZyXEL G-162 cards which had problems with WPA, but WEP worked just fine13:38
silverarrowthe system tries to connect much longer when I use the WPA alternative13:39
silverarrowit's a small laptop, but heavy and bulky, with a diskette station13:39
silverarrowthere's really no good reason it shouldn't connect?13:40
silverarrowI have to be off13:42
bioterrorI cant figure it13:42
silverarrowI am fed up with computer issues13:42
bioterroras you said it connects without a problems with another computer13:42
silverarrowI need a brake :- )13:42
silverarrowyes, the PCMCIA card13:43
silverarrowweird really13:43
bioterrordavyde, joe checks the synaptic15:04

silverarrowmaybe I should give it a go now18:12
silverarrowand I am planning to rebuild the battery too18:12
silverarrowa bit silly, but I just watched a youtube video where several people replace the battery cells with a bit of soldering18:13
bioterrorI have few camera batteries, would you like to fix them too? :D18:14
silverarrowlol18:14
silverarrowI could give it a try if it's regualar battery packs18:14
