[13:47] wolfpack, I need to update LXDE PPA first [13:48] wolfpack, after, you can add a comment that he can test with a newer version of pcmanfm using the LXDE PPA [13:51] The version of pcmanfm reported is 0.9.7 and repository has 0.9.8. Is it available for maverock also ? [13:52] wolfpack, 0.9.7 is in official repository, 0.9.8 is only availabel if you enable LXDE PPA : https://launchpad.net/~lxde/+archive/ppa [13:53] Ok. Thanks :) [13:53] not all users have its enable, and it's not mandatory to have it to use Lubuntu :) [17:06] Hi all, [17:08] Anybody else having problems with time out errors when using launchpad and Lubuntu 11.04 [17:09] Yorvyk: Can you elaborate your problem a little more ?

[18:13] hi guys [18:13] can someone tell me how to get new window themes with lubuntu ? [18:19] you mean window borders? [18:19] http://box-look.org/index.php?xcontentmode=7402 [18:21] yeah .. like putting a darker, more ubuntu like theme on the bright lubuntu default theme [18:22] also take look at http://gnome-look.org/index.php?xcontentmode=100&PHPSESSID=b550a6802f72dbcb551d3340073c0b28 [18:22] ok ... thats where i get the themes but how do i install them ? [18:22] you can dowhnload the theme you like [18:23] and unpack it to .themes folder in your home folder [18:24] what if there is no such folder (hidden stuff is visible) [18:24] then you have to create it [18:25] ok ... [18:27] ah ... so much for the colors but i still got this ugly mint-greenish window tops [18:28] lubuntu kernel = ubuntu kernel? [18:28] i guess [18:29] also, hi [18:29] I can't see why it shouldn't be, but nice to know [18:31] umino, you can change window borders with Openbox configuration manager [18:31] lxappearance ? [18:32] ah no ... [18:32] sorry [18:32] ok ... that was the stuff i was looking for .. [18:33] thanks [18:36] have a nice day [19:41] Anybody know how to remove the 'window title bar' globally. [19:53] Have you tried ctrl alt b? [20:18] How can I use xserver-xorg-video-nv instead of xserver-xorg-video-nouveau? [20:18] mark76, Yes, I was hoping there was a config file I could edit [20:27] I'm pretty sure openbox has config files [20:28] Sorry. I am running 11.04 by the way.I can't install nvidia-173 like I normally do because of the missing dependency issue. I would like to be able to see the objects on the screen. [20:30] GaryD, You'll probably have to create and xorg.conf. [20:32] mark76, there is, and there appears a to be a way to do it but I'm having problems understanding it. (.config/openbox/lubuntu-rc.xml) [20:32] Yorvyk: hey could you point me towards the lubuntu wiki page [20:33] stlsaint, [20:33] ? [20:33] Yorvyk: I tried killing X and running Xorg -configure as root, but got errors. Failed to create configuratoni file or something. I tried to uninstall nouveau, installing nv, and rebooting, i got the black screen of death. So I looked for a command to change which driver is used, and could find nothing. how can I create the xorg.conf? [20:34] stlsaint, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Lubuntu [20:35] haha i thought it was something else [20:40] GaryD, I could never get that to work [20:43] GaryD, I'm not sure if the following works any more but worth a try. [20:44] GaryD, sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg [20:46] did nothing as far as i can tell. [20:47] GaryD, [20:48] https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Lubuntu/Documentation/FAQ there you have guide [20:48] section 2.6. [20:48] oh, I have it wrong, should say lxdm, not gdm :D [20:49] now it's right and correct [20:52] 'sudo Xorg -configure' is the command I never remember but I can remember 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg' [20:53] I'll try. If it doesn't work, I will reinstall again and come back again. Thanks. [21:15] hi [21:15] did you install again? [21:16] bioterror, thanks for that FAQ it solved my remove title bar problem. [21:16] :o [21:16] :D [21:18] No good. Still a gray screen, and no xorg.conf file in root or /etc/X11/. I still got the error of not being able to create xorg.conf. [21:19] you need to stop LXDM [21:19] sudo service lxdm stop [21:19] then you can create xorg.conf [21:19] I ran both commands. Xorg -configure and dpkg-reconfigure-xserver-xorg. [21:20] I did stop lxdm. [21:20] what's the error message then [21:21] Number of created screens do not match number of detected devices. Configuration failed. [21:27] OK...for some reason, when I tried the mv xorg.conf.new /etc/X11/xorg.conf I got an error saying no such file exists. However, I just looked in pcmanfm, and the file is there. i am now copying it to /etc/X11. There are Screen0, Screen2 and Screen3. [21:28] http://pastebin.com/ZcX70zrj [21:30] should I remove lines 3 and 4 and the corresponding lines of code at the bottom for each screen? [21:31] you have two displays and two graphics cards? [21:33] As far as I have known I have one display and one graphics card. that is the problem. [21:34] Can I just remove the second one from xorg.conf? [21:35] you should have screen0 and card0 ;) [21:36] I will modify it real quick.. [21:39] Does this look right? http://pastebin.com/qU3UeDs6 [21:47] GaryD, it looks a lot better than the first one. I would stick with vesa first and if /when the Xorg.conf works change to nv [21:47] ok. Thanks. I'll go try that. [21:48] Lubuntu Unity any one? http://imagebin.org/142453 [21:52] I have to say this: I dont like that pastel blue theme [22:03] I'am not a fan of blue but, it is innocuous and doesn't cause problems on CRT's. [22:04] problems on CRT's? :D [22:10] There are a lot still in use and on most the colour balance is out. Even on old LCD monitors as well. Blue seems to work better. [22:12] GaryD, any luck [22:13] No good. Both vesa and nv allow plymouth to load clear as day, but after that black screen. i can't even use ctrl+alt+F1, I changed it back to nouveau, and it is still the same as before. Why would plymouth load clearly now, but not the desktop? [22:15] It doesn't sound like the video driver to me then. What do the logs have to say? [22:22] The only errors in the log is that the fonts directories don't exist, as far as I can tell. Should I pastebin? I have the one for vesa, as i tried it first and after nv before I went back to nouveau. [22:26] Could it be an issue with lxdm? [22:27] this is in the lxdm config file under [server]. # arg=/usr/bin/X -nr vt1. not sure if this has anything to do with it. [22:27] it is commented out, though. [22:28] argh. [22:32] argh indeed [22:32] Xorg log - http://pastebin.com/8ULxa2vA [22:32] for vesa. [22:38] BTW...I thank you for helping me with this. [22:44] Do you think installing nouveau-firmware will clear up my screen using nouveau? Not sure what the firmware is for. [22:48] no idea what the firmware does, never heard of it. [22:50] My video card is nvidia NV36 GeForce FX Go570. on all other lubuntus, nv worked just fine and nvidia-173 worked jut fine as well. [22:50] nouveau has never worked. [22:51] sorry...GeForce FX 5700 [22:56] Sorry GaryD my machine came to a grinding halt load average: 3.99, 5.27, 2.74 every thing was trying to use the cpu [22:56] dang. [22:56] sorry [22:59] Did it come back alive? [23:03] Well, I appreciate it. I have to go, now. I will mess with it later. If I can't get it working, I will go back to lubuntu 10.10. [23:03] What resolution is your screen [23:04] 1280x768 [23:05] It seems to think it's either 800x600 or 1024x768 [23:07] Try http://pastebin.com/556Xh3UC when you have time, i'll be around tomorrow. [23:07] I will try it now. I have a minute. [23:08] OK [23:09] Let me restart to see if it works. BRB [23:19] No Good. [23:20] Yorvyk: I will have to test other things later, I guess. Thank you for all your help [23:20] Yorvyk: Have a great day! [23:20] OH! I'll have anothe rlook at the log and let you know tomorrow if I find any thing. [23:20] Night# [23:20] Cool. Thanks
