[00:12] ah no that's for jaunty, not lucid [00:12] hey guys [00:12] i wanna add some icone mauely but idk where [00:13] cus with the lxapearance he doesnt show zip files :P [00:13] arrrgh, and xorg goes from v1.7 in lucid to 1.9 in maverick (and I need 1.7 or 1.8 for this touchscreen driver) [00:13] *headdesk* [00:15] kosaidpo|: Not in /usr/share/icons? [00:16] MrChrisDruif: ok ill see [00:17] lee: sorry I'm starting to run out of ideas [00:21] MrChrisDruif: GRr i jst had to unzip the file so ican find the tar one : ] tnx tho [00:21] Great :) [00:22] ok well I better image this thing and try xubuntu 8.04 or something [00:24] lee: sorry about that, tried 11.04 ? [00:24] no point [00:25] if 10.10 has too new a version, I doubt 11.04 is going to have an older one =) [00:26] * kosaidpo| faenza icones looks pretty neat : ] [00:26] if elo would just keep a bit more up to date with their drivers... [00:26] but then the touchscreens we're using have a manufacture date of 2001, so it's reasonably old ... [00:28] head_victim: ah well thanks anyway =) [00:29] lee: sorry I couldn't help any more, the only thing I could suggest now would be to email the mailing list? [00:57] how can i create a directory icon on my desktop [01:00] MrChrisDruif, any idea? [01:00] ? [01:00] Directory icon? [01:00] how would i create a link to a directory on my desktop [01:01] usually i would just create a short cut on my gnome desktop, then make the target like.. "nautilus /path/to/directory"... [01:01] ln -s /path/to/source ~/Desktop ? [01:01] Would create a symlink, not really what you meant but get the job done I think [01:02] yeah, but i'd like to create my own icon for it. [01:02] but yeah, that does work [01:02] i just can't figure out how to change the icon for it [01:03] if i could just create a pacman launcher, that would be fine. [01:03] cuz i coud edit the path. [01:05] KM0201: It's 2AM here and I need to finish stuff up and quickly go to bed :P [01:05] oh ok. [01:06] assigning an icon shouldn't really be this difficult though. [01:06] lol [01:07] Indeed, but maybe it's due to making a link instead of a launcher? :) [01:07] Btw, you can change the icon of the source, which would change the icon on the desktop [01:08] MrChrisDruif, well i only want to change the icon on the desktop, not the entire source === Semitones is now known as Semitonus [02:28] got disconnected, not sure if my line went through: is Lubuntu 10.04 a community LTS or not? I am getting conflicted information [02:28] *ing [02:28] MK``: Yes it is [02:29] thanks. Wikipedia says it is not, then a few paragraphs down says it is heh [02:31] "[18:49:08] < phillw> ...As we are supporting it as an LTS" === wizonesolutions2 is now known as wizonesolutions [03:34] Unit193: if i make my workspace switcher have 4 workspaces, is there a way to make it 2x2, instead of a row of 4? [04:00] I can't enable system bell any ideas [04:01] I can't enable system bell, or make gtk app sliders visible at all times any ideas? [04:20] KM0201: I don't think so: http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:wiki.lxde.org/en/LXPanel (~/.config//lxpanel/Lubuntu/panels/panel [04:21] Unit193: hmm.. ok.. not a huge deal i geuss.. thanks. === wizonesolutions is now known as wiZZZZZZone [07:30] hi all - wondering if anyone is awake to help out with a problem. Whenever I try to load Synaptic Package Manager, I enter my password and then the screen does a little flash thing and doesn't open. Thanks [07:32] Weird [07:32] Open lxterminal and type gksudo synaptic [07:32] Btw, which timezone are you Toadboy? [07:32] PST [07:33] UTC/GMT -/+? [07:33] Unit193, same result [07:33] umm -9 this time of year [07:33] I think [07:34] -7 [07:34] sorry [07:34] So it's almost midnight over there? [07:34] yeah [07:34] Do you see anything in the terminal? [07:34] ohh [07:34] it thinks the wrong pass [07:34] I dont think it is [07:35] oh wow [07:35] this is embarrasing [07:35] i must have had caps lock on during install [07:36] We don't know ^^ [07:37] so [07:37] yeah [07:37] that was the problem [07:37] i need to turn capslock on [07:37] its embarassing [07:38] sudo passwd root [07:39] can I change my pass with that command? [07:39] Yeah, root pass [07:39] Unit193: No, that sets root pw. Just plain passwd will set your own pw [07:40] Changing/Adding root password? =-O [07:40] jmarsden: Sorry, my bad :commits: [07:40] Unless you have very special needs, you should not need to set a root pw in Ubuntu at all. [07:40] Indeed, sudo would suffice [07:41] Or gksudo is better according to some [07:41] Right. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo [07:41] all fixed [07:41] thanks! [07:41] Good :) [07:42] i was really worried - btw, just started with lubuntu, its tiny use of resources is amazing [07:43] Welcome to Lubuntu :) [07:44] Indeed :D [07:44] * MrChrisDruif signs off, see y'all later [09:14] I updated the wikipedia entry :) [10:58] hey folks, need help. finally got a working Lubuntu 11.04 Live CD but after booting the CD there is only a text-screen asking me to login and not - as i am used to a GUI starting directly up... what do i have to do? [11:10] NRWlion: that woud indicate you had sme issue during the boot process.. does it say something like "Busy Box" [11:10] KM0201 : nope [11:10] its says starting NTP server ntpd [11:11] starting bluetooth [11:11] and then a welcome message to ubuntu 11.04 [11:18] NRWlion: dunno, something fubarred if its not booting [11:24] that is bad [11:27] wel, its not good.. but i'm not sure its bad [11:27] do other live CD's boot OK? [11:28] KM0201 : affirmative [11:30] weird [11:32] KM0201 : just getting a debian lxde 386 iso right now [11:32] to check whether the machine is not able to handle ubuntu [11:32] NRWlion: thats strange.. i would have expected it to work fine [11:32] KM0201 : nope it doesnt [11:33] have already lost three blank cds for burning the live cd and lost the whole weekend and my GF nearly because my problems :( [11:33] lol, your GF?.. dang dude..lol. [11:33] hi [11:33] should I update to ubuntu 11 though I have lubuntu? [11:34] also should I safe certain files before updating? [11:34] esing : from my point of view i would wait with the update to get the last problems solved first [11:34] okay thanks [11:34] esing: always always always backup prior to doing an upgrade... [11:35] but most of the upgrades have been going OK, from what i've read.. but i don't upgrade, i always clean install [11:35] KM0201 i only hate to configure my wake on lan every time new after updating/upgrading [11:36] esing: i can't tell you if that'll be effected or not. [11:36] i wouldn't think so.. but.. [11:36] once it effected after updating the kernel [11:36] ;) [11:37] hmm, then i would suspect its going to cause a problem [11:37] yep :) [11:37] if you knjow where the configuration is stored, you can back up the config, and just reload it when you've completed the upgrade/clean install [11:37] but it is not so much work configuring it, i just forget all those commands and have to read it up again [11:37] esing: there has to be a way to backup the configuration files. [14:23] what's the minimal requiriments to run lubuntu ? [14:28] ThiagoMedeiros: According to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Lubuntu#System%20requirements it's Pentium II/ Celeron with 128MiB or RAM [14:28] good! thanks MrChrisDruif [14:28] Your welcome :) [15:44] MrChrisDruif: what package do i uninstall to remove the lubuntu games? [15:44] I don't know KM0201 [15:45] i'll just remove them one at a time [15:45] MrChrisDruif: ah.. its "ace-of-penguins"... mark that for complete removal, and it removes them all.. :) [15:46] One of the games I guess :) [15:47] MrChrisDruif: must be..after reading it, package is like "gnome-games"... has several games wrapped in it.. why they didn't name it lxde-games, like kde, gnome and xfce did, i don't know [15:47] but.. to be fair, all of lubuntus games, are card games, where gnome, kde, xfce, the games are varied [15:48] Not on Lubuntu atm, so I don't know [15:48] oh.. well, take my word for it..lol, i just removed ace-of-penguins.. and i expected it to remoe one game, and it removed the whole pack... then i looked in the description, and sure enough, it listed all the default lubuntu games [15:49] :P [15:50] Maybe they called it "Ace of Penguins" because it's mostly card-games (a small reference to the "Ace of Spades" which is a recognized name in English) [15:54] :P [15:55] welcome to the 'meta' package lol [15:56] MrChrisDruif: yeah, i'd think thast the reason [15:56] but i still wouold ave expected it to be called lxde-games, to be in line w/ gnome, kde, xfce, etc [16:53] Hi [16:53] i instal gdesktoplets (for widgets on pulpit) and it blink [16:54] can i do something in lxde with this [16:56] lubuntu: i'm not sure if those work in lxde or not (since lxde is designed to be bare minimum [16:56] yes i know [16:56] its normal works but in refresh it blink [16:58] lubuntu: dunno [19:00] I thinking to switch to lubuntu instead of ubuntu. Can I run all my apps on lubuntu? [19:00] What apps are those? [19:01] Mainly, GIMP and Eclipse (Java IDE) [19:01] I don't see why not [19:01] Does lubuntu comes with a LiveCD that allows me to try it without installing it? [19:02] I think so [19:02] Try www.lubuntu.org [19:02] www.lubuntu.net [19:03] I mean [20:07] hi all [20:07] so, I got 10.10 on my ThinkPad T40... many improvements [20:07] kristian_, you mean 11.04?
