---|---|---|
aetherian | uh | 00:52 |
Quintin | the average IQ of ubuntu community makes me want to go all murder suicide | 00:52 |
Quintin | seriously | 00:52 |
aetherian | yeah, me too | 00:53 |
aetherian | now leave before I build up enough rage to do it | 00:53 |
* Quintin loads his guns | 00:53 | |
Quintin | trying to install this lubuntu jazz on mom's laptop... GUI isn't responsive though :/ | 00:54 |
Quintin | probably put it on her bf's laptop too... I put ubuntu 10.10 on it last week, but it's very slow | 00:54 |
aetherian | (actually, lubuntu is much more responsive than ubuntu, and kubuntu) | 00:55 |
aetherian | dunno about xubuntu | 00:55 |
aetherian | but I gotta go | 00:55 |
aetherian | midterms tonight :D | 00:55 |
Quintin | I'm talking about the install CD :P | 00:55 |
aetherian | use a usb then :) | 00:55 |
Quintin | install over usb 1.1? no thnx :P | 00:55 |
Quintin | installer is not starting for me | 00:59 |
Quintin | w.t.f. | 01:00 |
chuckbartowski | hi guys i got a quick hopefully easy question, in lubuntu's syle start menu is it possible to add shortcuts to it? | 01:04 |
chuckbartowski | sorry add shortcuts inside it | 01:04 |
Quintin | http://www.google.com/search?sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8&q=lxde+menu+config o look :P | 01:07 |
chuckbartowski | lol cheers was just having a look before you posted :) | 01:10 |
chuckbartowski | too much to do for a tired head, so for now i think i will just launch it from terminal lol its easier | 01:11 |
Quintin | WHY IS MY UBIQUITY NOT WORKING? GOD DAMMIT | 01:11 |
chuckbartowski | that rings a bell is that a coding programme or a web app | 01:13 |
chuckbartowski | sorry just googled it lol | 01:14 |
chuckbartowski | Quintin, k mate i'm off thanks 4 ur help mate | 01:18 |
Quintin | chuckbartowski: ya np. | 01:19 |
Quintin | ubiquity is the installer | 01:19 |
Quintin | wake UP you useless assholes! | 01:27 |
Quintin | really, rww? | 01:30 |
Quintin | get a life. | 01:30 |
rww | Hello #lubuntu! Does anyone happen to know whether Lubuntu releases come with any extra PPAs enabled, or is all of Lubuntu in Ubuntu's repositories? | 01:31 |
Quintin | hmm... I don't particularly like you, so I will refrain from answering your question. :) | 01:35 |
Semitones | good question rww | 01:41 |
Semitones | I have a live usb so presumably I could check for you | 01:41 |
Semitones | hold on, booting up meh laptop | 01:42 |
rww | Semitones: thanks :) | 01:42 |
Semitones | rww, haha i can't find my keys, hold on | 01:44 |
Semitones | rww, yes it does enable the lubuntu ppa by default in 10.10 | 02:06 |
rww | Semitones: https://launchpad.net/~lubuntu-desktop/+archive/ppa ? | 02:07 |
Semitones | lol darn I just shutdown | 02:07 |
rww | that's fine, I care more about yes/no than which one specifically it is. Thanks for your help :) | 02:07 |
Semitones | sure -- that doesn't look quite right | 02:08 |
Semitones | I don't remember any tildes | 02:08 |
Semitones | or addition signs | 02:08 |
szczur | rww, lubuntu cd is shipped with that ppa enabled | 02:10 |
rww | szczur: thank you | 02:10 |

GaryD | Hey all. How can I "turn off" ttys I don't want to use? | 14:56 |
MrChrisDruif | Hai GaryD :) I don't know....never thought about it tbh | 15:01 |
GaryD | I just found something. about to restart. commenting out the start line in /etc/init/tty4.conf, tty5.conf, and tty6.conf. | 15:03 |

craigbass1976 | I've asked this before, but haven't gotten an answer... What's the best way to take a screenshot? LXDE doesn't seem to recognize the print screen button, either alone or with the Alt key. Firing up GIMP to take a simple screenshot is a bit much. I never thought I'd say it, but Windows does this better, and I hate windows... | 15:16 |
craigbass1976 | http://wiki.lxde.org/en/How_to_make_screenshots Is this the best way? | 15:19 |
MrChrisDruif | Hai craigbass1976 | 15:22 |
craigbass1976 | MrChrisDruif, hey | 15:23 |
MrChrisDruif | I just took a look, and besides noting this to the mailinglist/bugtracker, it's a very lightweight solution. An other option would be to install Shutter | 15:25 |
MrChrisDruif | I don't know how lightweight shutter is | 15:25 |
MrChrisDruif | Your solution can only make a screenshot in .png, a good format, but not always... | 15:26 |
craigbass1976 | MrChrisDruif, Gah... I just looked in my home directory and found a bunch of screenshots. Something was taking them, but just saving them out to files instead of to the clipboard. WHat was doing that? | 15:28 |
MrChrisDruif | And your could mod the script to put it on other locations then you desktop ofc | 15:28 |
craigbass1976 | .png is fine | 15:28 |
MrChrisDruif | I would've thought Lubuntu solved this already. I *think* they've added a small program to save the screenshots :) | 15:31 |
craigbass1976 | MrChrisDruif, yes, regular print screen alone shoots the screen and saves a datastamp-as-title png in /home/me. Now, if I could figure out what's doing that, I could alter THAT script so that something stupid like MS Paint opens up the file immediately for editing | 15:32 |
craigbass1976 | like mtpaint | 15:33 |
MrChrisDruif | craigbass1976: Head dev is Julian, he'll probably come back online later today (after 18:00UTC or something), he'll probably know where too look :) | 15:35 |
craigbass1976 | MrChrisDruif, fair enough. Knowing it was saving files in my damned home directory helps a little; I just never thought that's how things would go down... | 15:36 |
