dogfishHello, I have a quick lubuntu question, Is there anyway to get past the 5.3Gb install requirement because I am trying to install on a 4Gb ssd netbook?04:39
bioterrorI think they are working on that bug04:41
bioterrormini.iso could be a solution04:41
bioterrorand then install lubuntu-desktop04:41
bioterrorubiquityasdasd is :(04:41
dogfishYeah, that what I was assuming I would have to do, but Just wanted to confirm04:42
dogfishThank you fo the info though04:42
dogfishfor*04:42
jmarsdendogfish: There is an iso at ftp://ftp.jmarsden.org/pub/lubuntu-11.04.jm1.iso that will install in 2.7GB04:42
jmarsdenIt is unofficial... but works.04:43
dogfishHas there been any problems with that version being updated since I herd that there could be problems with chaning the .iso file04:43
bioterrorjmarsden, have to wait for 11.04.1 ;)04:45
dogfishheh04:45
jmarsdendogfish: I wrote the script that creates official Lubuntu ISOs... I know what I am doing when it comes to creating Lubuntu ISOs :)04:46
jmarsdenbioterror: gilir and I discussed creating an 11.04.1 just for this but it's not affecting that many people... so... not yet :)04:47
dogfish:) will do. Its worth a shot04:47
dogfishWhy was the requirement made so high in the first place?04:47
jmarsdenThe ubiquity people changed the way the space requirement was calculated, 3 weeks before 11.04 final release, and did not realize it would affect Lubuntu that way.04:48
jmarsdenBasically we put a sane number in a file on the CD for size, they decided they want to make sure people have some spare disk space... and their code now checks for "double whatever number the ISO says"!!!04:49
jmarsdenIt fixed an issue for Ubuntu and Kubuntu, apparently, but caused a new issue for us.04:49
dogfishAhhh Thank you again for the info :)04:49
jmarsdenYou're welcome.04:49
dogfishTypical04:49
dogfishheh04:49
dogfishThough I am likeing the live version so far, so I am excited to try the fresh install on here, much faster than UNR04:50
bioterrordoes not require much to beat UNR04:52
dogfishheh Used it for way too long...04:52
bioterroractually, UNR has a real compititor, MeeGo 1.204:52
bioterror*compe04:53
bioterrorhttps://meego.com/devices/netbook04:53
dogfishEver tried crashbang?04:53
bioterrorcrunch04:55
bioterrorit's okay04:55
* jmarsden thinks... interesting name for a distro, "crashbang" -- a distro that kernel panics as soon as you boot :) :)04:58
bioterrorjmarsden, if it were mine, it would boot but every application would segfault04:59
jmarsden:)05:00
bioterrorthat's almost as funny idea as gobolinux :D05:02
sadiehello05:18
sadiei need some help again05:19
jmarsdensadie: OK, just ask your real question.05:20
jmarsden!ask05:20
ubot5Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-)05:20
sadieI need to convert an mp4 video in something that can play on my cell05:21
jmarsdensadie: What video file formats can your cellphone handle?05:22
sadiesomething like 3g205:24
sadieis a LG05:24
jmarsdenOK, let me see what I can find to create 3g2 files... that's not a format I have heard of until just now :)05:25
jmarsdensadie: There is some info on online web-based converters at http://www.ehow.com/how_6301997_convert-mpg-3g2-video-linux.html which might work for you.05:26
sadieme nither05:26
jmarsdensadie: Looks like you can probably use ffmpeg in Linux to do the conversion, but the exact commands for ffmpeg are... complicated, so I can't give you a working example.05:39
jmarsdensadie: You might fine someone who knows the ffmpeg commands for doing that in the #ffmpeg channel here on Freenode.05:40
jmarsden*You might find ...05:40
bioterrorffmpeg <305:43
bioterrori have mostly just converted .flv files to avi05:44
jmarsdenLooks like sadie went away anyway...05:44
bioterrorthankful person ;)05:45
ValentineMy flash video playing is slow cannot watch in full screen :(09:17
Valentinefor example youtube09:17

bioterrorand what about your hardware09:20
Valentine64mb builtin VGA card09:23
Valentineall was fine in linux mint 1009:24
bioterrorhmmm09:24
bioterrorcan you check your CPU usage while watching video?09:24
Valentineok09:24
ValentineCPU usage till 90%09:28
bioterrorwhat kind of CPU you have then?09:28
Valentine50% usage in small screen09:28
bioterror(Flash is horrible, I know)09:28
Valentineintel original 3.0 ghz09:28
bioterror3GHz sounds like Celeron09:28
bioterrorbut should be enough09:28
bioterrorbut then again, 90% cpu usage to play flash video09:35
MrChrisDruifbioterror; Or Pentium 409:40
bioterrorhi gilir09:49
bioterrorhow's the UDS?09:49
gilirhi bioterror09:50
gilirgood :) But it's just the beginning :)09:50
gilirLubuntu sessions are tomorow09:51
MrChrisDruifAloha gilir, how's it going?09:53
gilirhi MrChrisDruif, good for now :)09:55
giliris there other people here at the UDS ?09:56
jmarsdengilir: Yes, hajour and UndiFineD and Daniel0108 are all there09:56
gilircool :)09:59
gilirjmarsden: Lubuntu sessions are tomorow, be sure to add comments to the blueprints if you can't attend them :)10:00
jmarsdenI will try to be awake at 0600 for the 1500 timeslot... when is the other one?10:00
jmarsden0600 here is 1500 in Budapest...10:00
gilirjmarsden: there is also another session about documentation of the Ubuntu ISO build infrastructure, I'm sure you will be interested :)10:00
jmarsdenAh... yes :)  Do you know its name or when it is?10:01
gilirjmarsden: 2 hours later10:01
jmarsdenI can probably do that... 0800 here... will maybe make me late for work... :)10:02
gilirjmarsden: https://blueprints.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+spec/foundations-o-image-build-documentation10:02
jmarsdenThanks, subscribed :)10:03
jmarsdenHeh, should I add Lubuntu as a "User Story" to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Specs/ImageBuildDocumentation ?10:04
MrChrisDruifgilir; UndiFineD isn't at UDS but taking care of the kids at home10:12
MrChrisDruifBut I'll be able to attend afaics (cs = can see)10:13
UndiFineDbut I am remotely attending lots of sessions10:13
jmarsdenAh, OK, my misunderstanding :)10:14
jmarsdengilir: I just added Lubuntu as a User Story on that image build documentation wiki spec page.10:15
jmarsdenBut at 2:15am here I need to sleep, so goodnight all, and I hope hajour finds her luggage :)10:15
gilirUndiFineD: ok, it should have sound for sessions + IRC10:16
gilirjmarsden: ok thanks :)10:16
MrChrisDruifWhy are we doing this in #lubuntu instead of #lubuntu-offtopic?10:16
UndiFineDgilir, did you managed to get a last minute flight ?10:17
gilirUndiFineD: not last minute, it's booked since 1 mounth I think10:18
gilirand I'm here since Thurday, doing some tourism :)10:18
UndiFineDah great10:20
jmarsdengilir: that image build doc session is listed as being at 1200-1300 which is3 hours before the Lubuntu-integrate-ecosystem one... I can't do 3am and then 6am and then be awake a work... not realistic.10:24
jmarsdenhttp://summit.ubuntu.com/uds-o/meeting/foundations-o-image-build-documentation/10:24
gilirjmarsden: yes, not a nice shedule :/10:25
jmarsdenI'll see if I can add anything more to the spec tomorrow (Monday) evening for it, and if I remember leave xchat logging that room (dery) overnight.10:26
jmarsdenBut first I need to sleep... 2:30am here :)10:26
gilirjmarsden: be aware that the schedule move10:27
gilirit's very unstable :)10:27
UndiFineDI think they even have had a session on schedule stability10:42

Timo_Why is the grub entry saying it's Ubuntu, when it is Lubuntu?18:51
bioterrorno lubuntu18:52
bioterrorhmmm18:52
bioterrorohhh grub :D18:52
bioterrorI was already thinking lsb :D18:52
WiZdid you use the mini iso19:02
Timo_No I used lubuntu cd on usb19:03
WiZhmmm should say lubuntu then19:03
WiZtry sudo update-grub19:03
bioterrordoes that mean you used usb-cdrom-drive?19:03
bioterrorTimo_, sudo nano /boot/grub/grub.cfg19:05
bioterrorand then find line ### BEGIN /etc/grub.d/10_linux ###19:05
bioterrorand edit that "menuentry"19:05
bioterrorand then "update-grub"19:05
bioterrorthen you can boot into "Lubuntu" from grub19:06
sadiehelloTwo days ago I had xubuntu 10.10 and upgraded to 11.04 but everything got slower.19:46
sadiealso appeared a window that was removed many times faster, he said something like debconf19:46
sadieI useLubuntu  now and let me know if it is Intelligent to upgrade now, or is better to wait19:48
bioterroras long as you feel you're satisfied you dont have reason to upgrade19:50
bioterrorif you like the silver layout in 10.1019:50
sadiei dont understand20:00
MrChrisDruifsadie; An Operating System should do what you want to do with it; meaning that if Lubuntu 10.10 is for fulling your needs, there isn't a real reason to upgrade to 11.0420:09
bioterrorread 11.04 release notes20:09
craigbass1976I'm sure people have asked this before...  Where's the trash?20:23

EagleScreenhi20:47
EagleScreenwill I can copy Lubuntu iso to usb-stick with Universal USB Installer for Windows? it works with Ubuntu20:48
EagleScreenI think Unity is moving some users from Ubuntu to Lubuntu20:51
MrChrisDruifEagleScreen; Some?20:51
EagleScreenMrChrisDruif: do you think more than some?20:53
MrChrisDruifSince 11.04 has been released I think we've at least double the number of users.20:53
MrChrisDruifBut that is nothing more then a guess, no numbers to back it up thou20:54
EagleScreenwhat graphical tool can I use on Lubuntu to browse samba shares?20:55
MrChrisDruifI don't know EagleScreen20:55
craigbass1976bioterror, there's nothing in any of the subdirectories of ~/.local/share/Trash20:57
stlsaintEagleScreen: mounted share drives should be viewable via file manager20:57
stlsaintor network shares20:57
EagleScreenfor my surprise, Lubuntu is listed in Universal USB Installer for Windows20:58
MrChrisDruifstlsaint; Is that implemented with PCmanFM?20:58
EagleScreenI think not20:58
stlsainthrm, i will have to recheck that, im not in my lubuntu install atm20:58
EagleScreenthere must be another third party tool written in gtk..20:59
EagleScreento vrowse samba20:59
MrChrisDruifOw, yeah EagleScreen; you *should* be able to make a bootable usb-drive with any distro's ISO20:59

head_victimEagleScreen: you still looking for a tool within Lubuntu to create a startup USB disk?21:40
EagleScreenI think I will be able to do it with Universal SB Installer21:46
EagleScreenI will tell you soon21:46
EagleScreendownloading the iso right now21:46
head_victimOk, I can't remember if I installed it specifically or not but in any *buntu you can just "sudo apt-get install usb-creator-gtk" to get a nice, easy to use GUI for setting up USB ISOs21:49
head_victimAssuming it's not installed by default21:49
EagleScreenyes head_victim but i am on Windows right now22:02
head_victimEagleScreen: ah sorry, I think I misread some scrollback and got confused22:03
EagleScreenusb created, will test now, see you later22:10
MrChrisDruifstlsaint; Is that implemented with PCmanFM? <= forgot enter a long time ago22:14
MrChrisDruifWas about samba shares xD22:14
head_victimMrChrisDruif: it works in pcmanfm, yes22:15
head_victimI use it regularly for that22:15
head_victimFor maverick you need to check https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Lubuntu/ReleaseNotes/MaverickMeerkat#Network%20File%20Browsing%20with%20PCManFM though22:16

MrChrisDruifsadie; Slowness isn't only decided by RAM, also CPU speed is of importance afaik. And jmarsden|work +122:55
sadieexactly22:55
MrChrisDruifCPU generation is also important22:55
sadiemy pc is pentium III22:56
MrChrisDruifNewer generation CPU's preform more work in a cpu-cycle22:56
jmarsden|worksadie: A 1GHz PIII should run Lubuntu itself pretty well in 256MB.  A 500MHz one... will be slowish, probably.22:57
