MrChrisDruifbonny: try sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade -y && sudo apt-get autoremove -y16:33
MrChrisDruifThen see if sudo apt-get remove wesnoth doesn't work16:34
bioterrorsudo apt-get autoremove --purge16:34
bonnyok16:34
bioterrorand the system says clearly that wesnoth is not installed ;)16:35
bioterrorand it is removing all the non-needed packages16:35
MrChrisDruifAnd bonny: bioterror meant that you should use paste.ubuntu.com for multiline texts. It's called flooding if you post them directly in IRC, and that's not appreciated by many if you do it :)16:36
bonnyok16:37

bonnyok well i did it and it still says package not installed16:48

SchleuderPeterhey guys!17:30
SchleuderPeteris there someone who could help me with an lubuntu-specific question?17:31
SchleuderPeterI want to edit the runlevels. but what i have to change, that i can use "startx" to start the graphical environment?17:33
SchleuderPeterthe default runlevel is 2. so i looked into the rc2.d folder. the most forums say, that i have to remove gdm.17:33
SchleuderPeterbut there is no skript calld Sxxgdm17:34
bioterrorinit 5 is X17:34
bioterrorinit 3 is non-x17:34
SchleuderPeteri read in a forum. but one says its only in Suse like this. ubuntu default is 2.17:35
SchleuderPeterwhen i "sudo runlevel" it says 217:35
SchleuderPeterthe ubuntu-wiki says, that runlevel 2 is similar to 3-517:36
SchleuderPeterso i have to edit one of them, and then i have to choose the runlevel in the grub17:37
bioterrorwhy you dont want to use 'DM's?17:37
SchleuderPeterthe problem is: i can't see a symlink in the rc*.d folders linking something that starts the x server17:38
SchleuderPeterDMs?17:38
bioterrordisplay managers17:38
SchleuderPeter700MHz CPU, 32MB GPU17:38

SchleuderPeterand i acces the machine via vnc.17:39
SchleuderPeterthis vnc opens a new lxpanel17:39
SchleuderPeterso i dont need the one booting17:39
SchleuderPeteri used x11vnc, but this was not stable. it crashes sometimes and then it killed the whole Xserver17:41
SchleuderPeternow i'm using vnc4server17:42
SchleuderPeterany ideas?17:43
