[00:24] <MrChrisDruif> In the Gnome version of Ubuntu (normal Ubuntu) there is an application called System Monitor, in there you can easily spot which version you have installed
[00:24] <bonny> so how do i figure out in lubuntu?

[00:52] <Unit193> pcmanfm, Picasa/Flickr might be nice, bu hard...
[00:53] <Unit193> afk
[00:53] <Stew_822> That would be hard :P but heck I could give it a try later on :)

[02:48] <UBuxuBU> 32 or 64 bit bonny
[02:48] <bonny> 32 bit
[02:48] <UBuxuBU> one moment
[02:49] <bonny> ok
[02:49] <UBuxuBU> desktop?
[02:49] <UBuxuBU> or netbook?
[02:50] <bonny> desktop

[02:51] <bonny> im already there :D
[02:51] <UBuxuBU> simply dowload it and burn it to a cd
[02:51] <ericy> bonny:  Hello again.
[02:51] <UBuxuBU> have u d-loaded it yet
[02:52] <bonny> do i open it with x archiver or save it some where
[02:52] <UBuxuBU> save it
[02:52] <bonny> save it where
[02:52] <UBuxuBU> ru in lubuntu?
[02:52] <bonny> yes
[02:52] <UBuxuBU> i think it saves t oyour  home by default
[02:53] <bonny> ok its downloading
[02:53] <UBuxuBU> but if u want to save to desktop doesnt matter
[02:53] <bonny> so wat do i do when its done how do i burn to cd just copy and past?
[02:53] <UBuxuBU> burn to cd
[02:54] <bonny> if i right click it will there be an option to burn to cd?
[02:55] <UBuxuBU> im going to boot into lubuntu
[02:55] <UBuxuBU> brb
[02:55] <UBuxuBU> its on my other laptop
[02:55] <bonny> ok
[02:56] <ericy> bonny:  Use Xarchiver (in Accessories menu).
[02:56] <bonny> i know but i saved it and i dont know how to burn something to cd
[02:58] <ericy> bonny:  Use Xfburn in Sound Menu.
[02:58] <bonny> i dont have that
[02:59] <bonny> sudo apt-get install xfburn?
[03:00] <ericy> I am surprised because I think Xfburn is a default program.
[03:00] <bonny> nvm i do
[03:00] <bonny> nevermind srry
[03:00] <bonny> its just not in the menu
[03:00] <bonny> i can run it from terminal though
[03:01] <ericy> Really? In Sound & Video menu?
[03:01] <bonny> wow i think im kinda freakin out today haha its right there wow
[03:02] <ericy> It might be more convenient to run Xfburn by, Alt-F2. Try that.
[03:02] <UBuxuBU> hmmm my xburn refused to open...updating...
[03:03] <bonny> its ok i found it in the menu
[03:03] <ericy> .
[03:03] <bonny> im gonna test something
[03:04] <bonny> do i click burn image to burn ubuntu?
[03:06] <bonny> ok back
[03:06] <bonny> ericy, have you ever tried ubuntu
[03:07] <ericy> As I said yesterday, I have been using Ubuntu for 2 years, and Lubuntu for 2 months.
[03:07] <UBuxuBU> its nice buts kinda slow
[03:08] <UBuxuBU> i like ubuntu if i have at least 1 gig of ram preferably 2
[03:08] <bonny> oh ok
[03:09] <ericy> (Well I just had breakfast so soon I want to get back to writing a small utility in Python language.) )
[03:10] <bonny> ceya  ericy bye ubuuxbu thanks for the help
[03:10] <UBuxuBU> ok
[03:11] <UBuxuBU> hmm just noticed xfburn will not work in a vm
[03:12] <UBuxuBU> and the warning window crashes
[03:13] <UBuxuBU> odd i kept clicking it and it came up its totally malfunctioning
[04:40] <gnewb> Hello, can I put Lubuntu on a stick/USB ?
[04:41] <Unit193> !usb | gnewb
[04:41] <gnewb> Thank you.
[04:41] <Unit193> No problem!
[04:42] <gnewb> Unit93: That is where I was having the error at, I think it was Finalizing?
[04:45] <gnewb> Unit93: Was also a UC3 part on it, can I just get rid of that?
[04:46] <gnewb> Oh, ok, I just found that on that Link posted, Thank you kindly.
[05:27] <bioterror>  booted a cd and installed on a usb stick
[05:39] <ericy> As we speak, I am running Lubuntu 10.10 Live & persistent, on a  4GB usb stick. (Using 500GB HDD for data and various linux partitions.)
[05:41] <ericy> gnewb: (See my last line.)
[05:43] <Unit193> ericy: gnewb left #lubuntu some time ago
[05:47] <mali> heya... I was here the other day and speaking about helping out, I said if I get around o it I could/would :p
[05:48] <mali> but anyway.. I after testing, thinking, trying and all that, think I will settle on *buntu as main desktop.. and will use lubuntu BUT I admit , it is because I wish to have a low resource finished wm.. but also I wish to build up my 'main' DE, being pure compiz + a few things from lxde, kde, and so on.
[05:49] <mali> would you guys recommend a headless ubuntu server to start with or run it on lubuntu (I don't mind the extra space of having lxde/compiz).. and finally.. does lxde work fine on openbox too, and/or why is fluxbox chosen as it's wm?
[05:49] <mali> :)
[05:49] <mali> if anyone is around, that is :)
[06:19] <bioterror> mali, ubuntu mini.iso
[06:19] <bioterror> minimal installation
[06:20] <mali> bioterror: !!!!
[06:20] <mali> thank you omg I am downloading the server now and am wee[ping at the 600 :p
[06:20] <mali> MB*
[06:20] <mali> didn't ever rememebr seeing a mini.iso :)
[06:21] <bioterror> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD
[06:23] <mali> ye coudl only find desk, server, altenrate
[06:23] <bioterror> :--)
[06:23] <mali> :)
[06:23] <mali> thanks!!
[06:23] <bioterror> Have fun with creating your own flavour of *buntu
[06:23] <mali> well, I will pull in compiz say
[06:23] <bioterror> my desktop is part of LXDE and part of XFCE on Window Maker
[06:24] <mali> I guess the lovely auto mount features are all not gonna be there ;P
[06:24] <mali> twm?
[06:24] <bioterror> my laptop has pieces of Gnome, LXDE and XFCE on Fluxbox
[06:24] <mali> window maker == twm or not? I don't rememebr now.. but
[06:24] <mali> twm is my oldskool wm from you know the 99-00 era :p
[06:24] <mali> I use it always when i test X
[06:25] <mali> and it is remarkable how lovely implemented it is on logic
[06:25] <bioterror> twm should be the default Window Manager of X
[06:25] <bioterror> if I remember right
[06:25] <mali> smack it down where you need it, resize it, easy minimisation, dead small footprint
[06:25] <bioterror> and you get automount easily
[06:25] <bioterror> at least I have them ;)
[06:25] <mali> as one know.. everything else is eyecandy really so if one isn't bothered it's a great gui on top of a server say if you absolutely need it in days of visual need
[06:26] <mali> yes.. ah isn't window maker the same then?
[06:26] <mali> hmm, I will look it up as I knwo I used them all back in the day
[06:26] <mali> ye bioterror: easy and easy, when I try building on top of a lfs or something, I never get the automount's easily setup , at least not with the right RW rights
[06:27] <mali> but that's just a lil scrip there and there and should work itself out I guess
[06:27] <mali> so if I want to launch the mini.iso from disk, does it use generic names vmlinuz/initrd.img or does it append the kernel version buntu style?
[06:29] <mali> (nvm, I will figure that out now it's dl)
[06:31] <mali> ha! windowmaker.. i got curious now..you know, the only reason I want to have compiz as the engine is for that silly middle mouse click drag cube :p
[06:31] <mali> that is the single one thing I love having as eye candy
[06:31] <bioterror> I dont need them
[06:31] <bioterror> makes me feel bad as I change desktops alot
[06:31] <mali> all other things to me are unnecessary but I admit I have a weakness for that cube.. can't help it :/
[06:31] <mali> for what?
[06:31] <mali> for changing and trying.. that's the beauty of the diversity of linux
[06:31] <mali> choice :)
[06:32] <mali> I tend to stick to something for a year at least but then I tend to have like a month or two of mayhem
[06:32] <mali> whenre I just try out so many different things and tent to fall back on something .. at least I know more what I want and what not
[06:33] <bioterror> http://ricecows.org/archhh4.png that's my desktop computer's desktop. beautiful I think. no need for moar eye candy
[06:37] <mali> will check it now.. blah start up creator doesn't accept the mini iso
[06:37] <mali> can I just dd it?
[06:38] <bioterror> nope
[06:38] <bioterror> only arch based distros can be dd
[06:38] <mali> well I did dd with squeeze net instl and it worked too :)
[06:38] <mali> so I thought debian/ubuntu
[06:38] <mali> but ye, both arch and squeeze i managed str8 dd
[06:39] <mali> dso I do what (z)cat or rsync
[06:39] <mali> then get syslinux etc from ftp or?
[06:40] <mali> very nice bioterror
[06:41] <mali> but on arch I get so much megalahem mayhem haha, I feel like going ubu bare, compiz only and I will compile the odd package I need updated
[06:41] <bioterror> if you compile yourself, remember to use checkinstall ;)
[06:42] <mali> althoguh arch = easiest, quickest install ever + grt boot times, but in arch I typically always have this hassle with
[06:42] <mali> with write perimssions on auotmounts and all
[06:42] <mali> ye, I know
[06:42] <bioterror> no problems
[06:42] <mali> I found checkinstall and all that a week back
[06:42] <bioterror> exec ck-launch-session dbus-launch wmaker
[06:42] <bioterror> and you get permissions with thunar
[06:43] <mali> ye I wasn't using thunar
[06:43] <mali> tried pcmanfm
[06:43] <mali> and was using dolphin as well whilst troubleshooting compiz
[06:44] <mali> the thing is with arch, I am somewhat unrelaxed about security with rolling release + non signatures on packages
[06:44] <mali> but I am getting a new computer in august, even if this one is onl 4 months old :p but then I think I will use arch for my funbox
[06:44] <mali> :D
[06:44] <mali> as it will be sooo juicy I think
[06:45] <mali> hmm will unetbootin work then with it.. should do right? will try
[06:45] <bioterror> yes
[06:46] <bioterror> unetbootin should work
[06:47] <mali> k
[06:47] <mali> well if I am not back soon it means I am pissin about with that and it worked.. else prolly iwll pop by and say "blah"
[06:47] <mali> ;)
[06:47] <mali> thanks for the tips !
[06:50] <mali> worked
[06:50] <mali> yay
[06:50] <bioterror> \o/
[06:50] <mali> hehe ye I forgot to sasve the compiz configuration crap when I get to that
[06:51] <mali> might try the windowmaker as an option as I wanted lubuntu, cos I don't mind a lightweight alternative but point is comp can handle bloat.. but I like it being concise BUT i want that middle mouse click drag cube rotate :P:P
[06:51] <mali> the ONE eye candy I like and want!
[06:51] <bioterror> ;)
[06:51] <mali> you use cli itrc or gui?
[06:51] <mali> eg. weechat or other?
[06:51] <bioterror> I'm using weechat
[06:51] <mali> as gui client I like
[06:51] <bioterror> and it makes me cry atm.
[06:51] <mali> ye.. I was just looking into that
[06:51] <mali> why?
[06:52] <bioterror> I upgraded it yesterday and eeeverything was broken
[06:52] <mali> ah crap :/
[06:52] <bioterror> I still cant connect to two servers with SSL
[06:52] <mali> no backup files?
[06:52] <mali> rollback?
[06:52] <bioterror> I'm using dev tree of weechat
[06:52] <mali> I mean, what new features did you upgrade for?
[06:52] <mali> ye ok
[06:52] <bioterror> lots of, some stuff on act's and so on
[06:52] <bioterror> but removed them :D
[06:52] <mali> hehe
[06:53] <mali> :)
[06:53] <bioterror> WeeChat uptime: 92 days 03:22:49, started on Tue, 11 Jan 2011 04:30:42
[06:53] <bioterror> ;)
[06:53] <bioterror> maybe I should give up with the SSL
[06:53] <bioterror> seems to make life a lot harder
[06:54] <Unit193> Irssi: Uptime: 22d 7h 7m 21s
[06:54] <Unit193> You win ;)
[06:55] <bioterror> hmm, my vps been up for 103 days
[06:55] <bioterror> not bad
[06:55] <Unit193> Ah! I SSH into my own...
[06:58] <mali> hehe
[06:58] <mali> ok bbl am off to play with mini iso :p
[06:59] <Unit193> bioterror: Do you use Mutt or Alpine?
[06:59] <bioterror> alpine
[09:28] <malina> well bioterror
[09:28] <malina> I got it just as I wanted it.. kinda ;p
[09:28] <bioterror> almost there then
[09:29] <malina> the .compiz-session in ~ doesn't seem to trigegr :/
[09:29] <malina> trigger
[09:29] <malina> and I don't have ouse in 'gdm' as I just took that for now
[09:29] <malina> thats a xf86-uvdev
[09:29] <malina> something?
[09:29] <malina> I couldn't find it in apt in the back of my miund
[09:29] <bioterror> synaptics?
[09:29] <malina> ye I have a
[09:29] <malina> ye
[09:29] <malina> as in , my usb mouse won't work in the gdm
[09:29] <malina> only after I login to compiz
[09:30] <bioterror> hmmm
[09:30] <malina> and I have to still do compiz --replace ccp
[09:30] <bioterror> I'm not familiar with compiz
[09:30] <malina> even if I set up sessions.desktop in usr/share/xsessions,
[09:30] <malina> ya it's more about the X not readin gme scripts
[09:30] <malina> but I guess I will figure i tout
[09:31] <malina> and I kinda liked not having a BG, so when I rotrate you can still see inside the cube afterwards, BUT it disappears again on startup.. sigh
[09:31] <malina> but it's at least *almsot* there ;p
[09:32] <bioterror> some fine tuning :D
[09:33] <malina> ye hehe
[09:33] <malina> god I love that lil mouse trail particles thingy alway when I first set up compoz
[09:33] <malina> then I go tired of it aftr a day ;p
