ooI see, it's an unfixed bug: http://askubuntu.com/questions/17252/audio-cds-will-not-auto-mount-correctly00:07
ooI can play it via vlc and mplayer but can't open it via pcmanfm00:09
ooHey, renaming short-cuts on the desktop does not do anything, any reason why?00:23
Stew_822Hello :D05:38
Stew_822I was wondering, just about how much does the lubuntu installer download when it installs the updates?05:39
Stew_822Is it in the realm of hundreds of mb?05:39
Stew_822Because, for me, the max is about 30mb because of a) slow connection b) stupid internet limit05:40
Stew_822Nevermind, it's probably way too much05:40
Stew_822I'll just download it some other time05:41
Unit193If you skip it, you can always do it later05:41
Stew_822Oh cool :D05:41
Stew_822Uhh, how?05:41
Stew_822I'm more worried about the "third party" stuff05:41
Unit193Menu > System > Synaptic05:41
Unit193or if you like the CLI sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade05:42
Stew_822hehe I like the CLI05:42
Unit193Really? have you used linux before? (debian?)05:42
Stew_822What's the "third party" software package? What's it's name, do you know?05:43
Stew_822Yeah, the default gnome one, but then I kinda stuffed up the desktop somehow (i don't know why, but there was TWO wallpapers. I don't even know how tha's possible) and I wanted to switch to LXDE anyway05:43
Stew_822synaptic scares me05:44
Stew_822Thanks for your help :D05:45
Unit193Thirdparty = Canonical Partner Repositories05:46
Stew_822Thanks :D05:48
Stew_822I have one last question :]05:48
Unit193Sure!05:48
Unit193Shoot!05:48
Stew_822How do I tell the Lubuntu installer which partitions I want it to overwrite? I went to the "manually specify partitions" bit05:49
Stew_822ohhh hang on brb05:49
Stew_822ok ok I'm back :D05:53
Stew_822oh YAY someone fixed lxpanel!!! the one I used to have didn't work how I liked it :D05:53
Stew_822oh05:54

cyphermoxwho takes care of lubuntu development? I'm curious about this bug: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/network-manager-applet/+bug/753300  and whether nm-applet should be added to autostart as it's suggested. I just want to double-check ;)21:24
ubot5Ubuntu bug 753300 in network-manager-applet (Ubuntu) "add LXDE (and possibly other DEs) to OnlyShowIn" [Undecided,New]21:24
Stew_822Hello (again) :D22:20
Stew_822I was wondering if anyone knows of a automatic wallpaper changer that works in lubuntu?22:20
MrChrisDruifI thought Gnome was able to do that himself?22:21
MrChrisDruifHow to created automated changing wallpapers is a bit more work22:21
Unit193Maybe wally?22:21
Stew_822cool i'll give it a try :D22:22
Stew_822The other two I tried failed completely22:22
Unit193Stew_822: Did the install go fine?22:34
MrChrisDruifOw...was in Lubuntu...hehe22:34
MrChrisDruifDon't mind me Stew_82222:34

klynchusing empathy instead of pidgin22:39

klynchpidgin never syncs with fb chat22:39
Stew_822klynch: I read somewhere that that's fine, to remove lubuntu-desktop22:46
Stew_822Unit193: I have a *very* slow internet :D22:47
Stew_822and it has to pull in the QT stuff22:47
Unit193And you don't even know if it will work...22:48
Stew_822hehe well I'd surely have to get the qt stuff eventually22:49
Unit193Stew_822: What's your current speed?22:51
Stew_822Unit193: Very very slow22:52
Stew_822It doesn't seem to be working22:52
Stew_822I don't think it supports OpenBox22:52
Stew_822wb22:53
Brunoirsthx22:53
Unit193The site says "KDE3, KDE4, Gnome, XFCE4, Fluxbox, Blackbox, FVWM (unstable), and WindowMaker"22:56
Stew_822yeah22:56
Stew_822I just read that :(22:56
Unit193Didn't know for sure if that would work (hence the "maybe" and ?)22:57
Stew_822yeah22:58
Stew_822don't worry I don't blame you matey22:58
Stew_822but I've gotta go now :P22:58

Stew_822haha that's okay, you too! take care :D22:59
Stew_822Well I'm back again :D23:39
Stew_822Hello :D23:39
Unit193What's up?23:39
Stew_822Well yes I did actually join for a reason :D23:40
Stew_822Uhh I was wondering, how do I tell if I have a GPU?23:40
Stew_822I figured it'd tell me in the system benchmarky place but I can't see any text that says "YOU HAVE A GPU, BE HAPPY!!" so I figure I don't have one but you know, I thought I did23:41
Unit193lspci may tell (I don't have any computers with a GPU)23:44
Stew_822Haha yeah it's just confused me even more :D23:46
Stew_822thanks though23:46
Unit193Stew_822: sudo apt-get install pastebinit23:46
Unit193Then you can do lspci |pastebinit -b http://paste.ubuntu.com23:47
Stew_822haha who would've thought that someone'd make something like that :D23:48
Stew_822http://pastebin.com/YqxAA30V23:49
Stew_822I don't think it's there though23:49
Stew_822oh my gosh23:51
Stew_822there it is23:51

Unit193Love the name of you're computer ;)23:53
Stew_822hehe thanks :D23:54
Stew_822it's really annoying in the terminal though23:54
Stew_822almost a whole line23:54
Stew_822with you know a couple of directories23:55
Stew_822Unit193: So does that mean I can use a compositing window manager without much of a drop in performance?23:56
Unit193Looks like you could try!23:58
Unit193On the thinkwiki site, go down to "3D Acceleration"23:59
