JoeMaverickSettjgould: in the Guides section --> no. 3 :D03:54
theholderHi04:10
theholderis there a way in lubuntu to allow the screen of a laptop to be put down and not sleep the laptop04:10
jgouldI had to bring up the gnome-power-manager for that, theholder04:12
theholderoh04:12
theholderjgould, where can i find this04:13
jgouldMore specificly, I used the icon telling me that my battery was discharging.04:13
jgouldI want my laptop to sleep when I close the lid and it didn't04:14
theholdero.O04:15
theholdermine does04:15
jgouldMine didn't for some reason.  but my install was also a Ubuntu install first and then a Xubuntu and then an Lubnutu before I removed everything except for the Lubuntu stuff.04:16
jgouldWow... A file transfer from the server killed my machine...04:23
jgould(well, not really04:23
bioterrorjgould, ? :D04:29
bioterrortheholder, unplug power cable from your laptop04:29
bioterrorand you get that icon04:29
theholderthanks i got it04:30
jgouldthat was my response, bioterror...  I was albe to drop to a console and do what I was trying to do using lxterm...04:30
bioterrorhi gilir04:36

bioterrorunicum comes from hungary04:41
bioterrorhurrrhhhh04:41
sagacihi, just installed compiz on lubuntu 11.04 64-bit... anyway to easily make it start with I turn on the computer... so I don't have to manually type compiz --replace?06:30
jonathan_yes06:34
jonathan_I forget which menu the customize look and feel is under06:34
bioterrorput it into autstart ;)06:35
jonathan_but in the advanced tab you are able to edit which wm you use06:35
bioterrorI would keep openbox06:36
bioterrorand run compiz on it06:36
ohaithereHello. I looked at the software list for Lubuntu 11.04, but I didn't find any crypto. Can I still encrypt my hard disk on install; like with ubuntu alternative?06:57
jmarsdenohaithere: Lubuntu uses the uniquity graphical installer.  The option to encrypt your home directory is available.  I don't think the option to do "whole disk" encryption at install time is available.07:06
jmarsdens/uniquity/ubiquity/07:06
ohaithereawesome07:20
ohaitherethats all i really need07:20
ohaitherethanks!07:20
jmarsdenohaithere: You're welcome.07:21
sagacithere's nowhere in Desktop Session Settings to add compiz to automatic startup08:36
bioterrorhttps://help.ubuntu.com/community/Lubuntu/Documentation/FAQ there's a guide08:36
bioterrorcreate compiz.desktop or something like that and place it into ~/.config/autostart/08:37
sagacii'l try that08:39
MK`full disk encryption is on the alternate CDs but not the LiveCDs :<08:39
MK`https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2011/05/help-bring-disk-encryption-ubuntu-live-cd08:39
sagacibioterror: tried that, rebooted and didn't show up in the list08:40
sagacibioterror: rebooted again compiz works now but missing top lxde panel :/ make one you lose one08:47
bioterrorsagaci, where did it go :D08:48
sagaciis there a command to bring it back08:49
jmarsdensagaci: The place to specify compiz instead of openbox-lxde is in Preferences -> Desktop Settings under the Advanced tab...  or it *should* be :)08:49
gilirjmarsden: ... but I'm quite sure it doesn't work as expected :/08:50
jmarsdengilir: It used to, at least according to http://www.dwasifar.com/?p=144208:50
jmarsdenI do not have a spare PC with a fancy 3D graphics card on it to test with at the moment, my spare PCs are all old junk ones people have given away :)08:51
gilircool, so it's just my system which is broken :p08:51
jmarsdenMaybe... if I can free up a spare new PC at work to test with at some point, I will :)08:52
AscavasaionAny ideas how to add a Lock Desktop button to a lubuntu desktop?  For when you leave your desk etc.?09:23
WiZthink it's one of the things you can add to the panel09:28
AscavasaionWiZ: I also thought so, but see nothing there.09:29
bioterrorAscavasaion, what's wrong with keybinding?09:29
bioterrorwindows doesnt have lock desktop -button, but I'm using Windows + L09:30
bioterrorsure you can make yourself icon too09:32
bioterrorcreate a desktop file and add to Exec=xscreensaver-command -lock09:32
bioterrorall you need is a little bit of creativity09:33
Ascavasaionhttps://lists.launchpad.net/lubuntu-desktop/msg02066.html <== a work around kind of thing for lockig the desktop.09:33
bioterrorhttps://help.ubuntu.com/community/Lubuntu/Documentation/FAQ#I want to bind key to lock my screen, how do I do it?09:33
bioterrormake yourself a key binding09:33
bioterrorit's faster!09:33
Ascavasaionbioterror: Okay, I did that, how to I load it?09:41
bioterroropenbox --reconfigure09:41
jmarsdenbioterror: You can't have spaces in a URL, you meant: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Lubuntu/Documentation/FAQ#I%20want%20to%20bind%20key%20to%20lock%20my%20screen,%20how%20do%20I%20do%20it?09:43
bioterrorjmarsden, really09:43
bioterrorsomehow ubuntu's wiki doesnt give them with chrome/chromium :D09:43
bioterrorbut if I copy & paste that whole line09:44
bioterrorit works juuuust fine09:44
jmarsdenHmmm, I got and pasted the URL from Firefox 4 into Xchat and it converted the spaces into the %20s for me automagically... and the URL spec says you escape the spaces...09:44
jmarsdenhttp://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc1738.txt   and search for the word   unsafe    in it :)09:46
bioterrornot my fault wiki.ubuntu.com sucks :D09:47
Ascavasaionbioterror: Thank you... it worked like a charm :)09:48

jmarsdenxchat can run scripts in C, C++, Perl, Python, TCL, Lisp, Ruby and Falcon.  Isn't that good enough?10:10
bioterrormIRC has own language10:10
bioterroras far as I remember10:10
bioterrorI have not used mIRC since 199810:11
MK`yes it does10:11
MK`mIRC can only run stuff in its own language10:12

cdubyaI ran lubuntu before and recently added lubuntu to it because I really dislike unity.......anyway, before I had a panel that I could hide on the left of my screen, but I can't figure out how to get that back on this version and need to be able to add app shortcuts to it.14:16
bioterrorright click your lxpanel14:16
bioterrorand you have there that application launcher or what was it14:17

cdubyaI see that I can add a new panel, but how do you add individual items to that panel? It looks like the only things you can add are the predetermined widgets or whatever lxde calls them....14:22
cdubyanevermind. I remember I had to edit the panel config. Thanks.14:27

Lostmonkso, Im trying to get lubuntu to install on an old laptop, and the installer everything, then it starts to load a gui21:27
LostmonkI get an arrow, then the busy sign, and it freezes right there21:27
bioterrortake mini.iso21:27
Lostmonkis there a way to get the installer to go without it loading a DE?21:27
bioterror!mini21:27
ubot5The Minimal CD image is very small in size, and it downloads most packages from the Internet during installation, allowing you to select only those you want (the installer is like the one on the !Alternate CD). See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD21:27
Lostmonkdo I need a different ISO, or can I do it from the other disk?21:28
bioterrorand sudo apt-get install lubuntu-desktop --no-install-recommends21:28
Lostmonkbecause I have no burner, and it took me ages to get this cd in the first place21:28
bioterrorLostmonk, I dont have neither. I use usb sticks21:58
Lostmonkits so old it wont boot from usb22:00
Lostmonkand I tried what someone said about letting it load the kernel and then going to usb, and it still ditn work22:00
KM0201Lostmonk: i'm not sure how to do it.. but there should be a way you can partition a small part of your hard drive (say, 1gig)... and boot the ISo off of that.22:06
KM0201but i'm not sure how to do that22:06
KM0201Lostmonk: does the machine currently hae linux? or is it running MS?22:08
Lostmonkits running xp22:08
