| Ahmuck-Jr | there is a delay in application launch. is there a way to speed application launches up? | 04:09 |
| Semitones | Hey could we change the installer next year so it tells you you can keep your old /home if you choose manual install, and set your old partition as root without clicking format? | 04:12 |
| Ahmuck-Jr | if your doing manual installation, this is something you'd know anyway? | 04:26 |
| Ahmuck-Jr | did you loose /home? | 04:26 |
| Semitones | no I just foolishly made another partition and installed to there | 04:27 |
| Semitones | because I didn't know what I wanted to do was possible | 04:27 |
| Ahmuck-Jr | ah | 04:27 |
| Ahmuck-Jr | manual install, carve out 1024mb for swap, at end, 10240 for / partion at beggining and then select remaining in the middle as /home (ext3) | 04:28 |
| Ahmuck-Jr | er, manual partitioning | 04:29 |
| Semitones | Ahmuck-Jr, apparently you don't need a home partition | 05:04 |
| Semitones | if you tell the installer to install over your old / partition, but without format, then it deletes everything that's not /home or /usr/local | 05:04 |
| Semitones | or so i was told in #ubuntu | 05:04 |
| Ahmuck-Jr | that is correct | 05:14 |
| Ahmuck-Jr | you need to set up a seperate primary partition | 05:14 |
| Ahmuck-Jr | if you have everything in / then you'd need to do a backup first | 05:14 |
| Ahmuck-Jr | so, three primary partitions, / /home /swap | 05:15 |
| Ahmuck-Jr | ext3 | 05:15 |
| KM0201 | Semitones: hmm, i didn't know that (that if you don't format, it doesn't format /home) | 05:16 |
| KM0201 | i never keep /home on a separate partition anyway | 05:16 |
| Semitones | KM0201, I used to, and I had a separate /boot as well, but with grub2 that wasn't necessary anymore | 05:17 |
| KM0201 | ya | 05:17 |
| mr-rich | Ok ... minimal install is done ... /proc/meminfo looks good & df shows 20% if disk space is used ... | 05:20 |
| mr-rich | However ... | 05:20 |
| mr-rich | upon reboot, I have what looks like X starting ... It's just a screen with a blinking cursor on it ... | 05:21 |
| mr-rich | I used CTRL-ALT-F2 to get to a terminal ... as far as I can tell, X doesn't appear to be running ... | 05:22 |
| mr-rich | I assume I continue the lubuntu install from CLI? | 05:23 |
| mr-rich | or should I take care of the X thing first? | 05:26 |

| bioterror | hmmm what | 08:05 |
| bioterror | has they changed things in 11.04 | 08:05 |
| tdn | Probably. | 08:07 |
| tdn | But I can add the bg var. But in which section? | 08:07 |
| tdn | http://paste.adora.dk/P2056.txt | 08:08 |
| tdn | This is my config | 08:08 |
| bioterror | should I install 11.04 to my laptop? | 08:09 |
| bioterror | then again, I could move to ocelot | 08:09 |
| bioterror | hmmm | 08:10 |
| * bioterror rubs his head | 08:10 | |
| bioterror | takes a while to compile unetbootin | 08:10 |
| tdn | 11.04 is nice, I think. | 08:13 |
| tdn | bioterror, do you know how I can change theme/background in lxdm in my config? | 08:13 |
| bioterror | takes a while and I know | 08:14 |
| bioterror | about 30mins | 08:14 |
| bioterror | as they have changed settings in lxdm config | 08:14 |
| tdn | Ok | 08:28 |
| bioterror | doing some backups ;) | 08:31 |
| MrChrisDruif | Good going bioterror | 08:32 |
| bioterror | takes a while to move chromium folder | 08:32 |
| MichealH | lol, it reminds me of a geeky joke xD | 08:33 |
| bioterror | yeah | 08:33 |
| bioterror | .config moved | 08:33 |
| bioterror | reboot to install | 08:33 |
| bioterror | if unetbootin works :D | 08:33 |
| MichealH | It said "To compress backups really well do [REALLY BAD COMMAND]" ;) | 08:34 |
| bioterror | hahaha | 08:38 |
| bioterror | I had to copy paste / mark from terminal to installer that I can manually make partitions | 08:38 |
| bioterror | and this did not want to make me a jfs partitions | 08:39 |

| bioterror | no xfs neither | 08:41 |

| esmirlin | hey people! just a question, is it possible to install dropbox on lubuntu? i'm just trying CrunchBang Linux cause ubuntu is too big and heavy for my netbook but i'm so used to ubuntu i wanna try lubuntu but i'm afraid of not being able to do the same work as in the Ubuntu one | 11:19 |
| head_victim | esmirlin: I'm sure I heard someone saying they use it with pcmanfm in here (pcmanfm is the default file manager in Lubuntu) | 11:20 |
| head_victim | esmirlin: http://forums.dropbox.com/topic.php?id=27035 | 11:22 |
| esmirlin | thanks! | 11:23 |
| esmirlin | and what about crunchbang? is it lighter than lubuntu? | 11:24 |
| head_victim | I have not ever used crunchbang sorry so I don't really know. What are the specs of the hardware you are using? | 11:24 |
| esmirlin | head_victim, http://www.notebookreview.com/default.asp?newsID=5437 | 11:27 |
| head_victim | Ah it runs fine on my wife's really old 600mhz celeron with 512 ram ;) | 11:27 |

| esmirlin | hey folk! i burnt the iso into a usb using unetbootin and usb-creator but it didn't boot into lubuntu installation :S | 12:01 |
| stlsaint | esmirlin: well what did it do? | 12:04 |
| esmirlin | it splash a the comand console | 12:04 |
| esmirlin | *sorry for my english :S | 12:05 |
| esmirlin | it splashes the command line | 12:05 |
| stlsaint | esmirlin: what type of computer are you using? | 12:09 |
| esmirlin | stlsaint, a netbook | 12:10 |
| MichealH | head_victim, phillw has been real quiet today | 12:11 |
| stlsaint | care to elaborate | 12:12 |
| head_victim | MichealH: it would appear so, maybe he has some real life stuff to take care off, hmmmph real life getting in the way of the online world. | 12:12 |
| head_victim | stlsaint: asus eee 1005pe | 12:12 |
| MichealH | head_victim, :P | 12:13 |
| stlsaint | head_victim: how dare that real life....smh | 12:13 |
| head_victim | esmirlin: so doesn't work at all, only shows the splash and sits on that, or goes toa terminal after the splash? | 12:14 |
| stlsaint | head_victim: huh? | 12:14 |
| victor__ | stlsaint, it sais there's no init found | 12:15 |
| victor__ | i've tried it like 4 times using differents pc's and different software and no chance :( | 12:15 |
| stlsaint | how is everyone able to post what the issue is cept the on needing support :P | 12:16 |
| victor__ | :( | 12:17 |
| stlsaint | victor__: did you verify the iso prior to burning it? md5 and all that jazz | 12:20 |
| victor__ | yes | 12:21 |
| victor__ | all is ok | 12:21 |
| victor__ | i've tried another "buntu" distro like kubuntu and ubuntu and it just worked | 12:21 |
| victor__ | stlsaint, | 12:24 |
| stlsaint | victor__: what iso did you download? | 12:25 |
| victor__ | http://www.linoob.com/2011/04/lubuntu-11-04-final-released/ | 12:25 |
| victor__ | stlsaint, | 12:26 |
| stlsaint | victor__: it is possible that site has a corrupt iso, it is highly unlikely that you are able to use ubuntu but not lubuntu | 12:30 |
| head_victim | stlsaint: it links direct to the correct places | 12:31 |
| stlsaint | victor__: well that sucks | 12:31 |
| head_victim | It's a little perplexing. | 12:31 |
| stlsaint | victor__: i assume it would be hardware related in that case | 12:31 |
| head_victim | victor__: so does it hang at the splash, before the splash or give you a terminal after the splash? | 12:31 |
| stlsaint | head_victim: i did have the same issue with the alpha iso but i just assumed that was cause it was alpha | 12:33 |
| stlsaint | on another netbook from a guy who wanted linux | 12:33 |
| head_victim | stlsaint: ah fair call but it seems like direct, correct links at the bottom of the page | 12:34 |
| victor__ | i just see the terminal without anything else, initrads: | 12:34 |
| victor__ | i don't know what to doo | 12:38 |
| victor__ | o | 12:38 |
| victor__ | *do | 12:38 |
| victor__ | should i use unetbootin with sudo? | 12:38 |
| stlsaint | head_victim: that also sounds like a fail on unetbootin | 12:39 |
| stlsaint | not packing initrd correctly | 12:39 |
| head_victim | I always use startup disk creator from within another Ubuntu installation | 12:39 |
| victor__ | stlsaint, did you try? | 12:39 |
| stlsaint | victor__: yes | 12:40 |
| stlsaint | head_victim: when i tried with final releaes and unetbootin it just hands at splash screen for me | 12:40 |
| head_victim | stlsaint: sounds exactly like what that person was experiencing | 12:40 |
| stlsaint | cept im not on a netbook | 12:41 |
| stlsaint | head_victim: maybe this is something to look into? | 12:41 |
| head_victim | stlsaint: sure, we need to find someone with a netbook :) | 12:42 |
| stlsaint | i have one i can try right quick | 12:42 |
| stlsaint | one sec | 12:42 |
| stlsaint | head_victim: seems to be same with me | 12:44 |
| head_victim | Hmm bug report time? | 12:44 |
| stlsaint | looks like it | 12:44 |
| head_victim | Double check with an actual cd copy as well? | 12:44 |
| stlsaint | head_victim: wont be able to on netbook | 12:45 |
| head_victim | Ah good point | 12:45 |
| head_victim | I'm a bit tired apparently ;) | 12:45 |

| head_victim | I recall having that exact issue in a previous release | 12:47 |
| stlsaint | hit enter then space bar with nothing | 12:48 |
| head_victim | Just trying to remember the error it was cycling to find what bug it was | 12:49 |
| stlsaint | yep im looping | 12:49 |
| stlsaint | WHOA | 12:50 |
| stlsaint | one sec | 12:50 |
| stlsaint | crap i missed it | 12:50 |
| gilir | head_victim, the steps to reproduces, and if it's tested on standard Ubuntu | 12:50 |
| head_victim | gilir: no worries, it's looking like a previous error I once had trying to find it | 12:51 |
| stlsaint | man i gotta record what just happened on system | 12:52 |
| head_victim | Just give me an error line to google :) | 12:52 |
| stlsaint | lol i think i can do ya one better | 12:52 |
| stlsaint | head_victim: whats your email | 12:53 |
| head_victim | jarednorris at ubuntu dot com :) | 12:53 |
| stlsaint | head_victim: sent | 12:54 |
| stlsaint | ima try and get some video of the massive errors it just went thru | 12:55 |
| stlsaint | went streaming all over the screen :D | 12:55 |
| head_victim | Ah that's different to what I was thinking of but still an error none the less | 12:56 |
| stlsaint | yep | 12:57 |
| stlsaint | though i cant tell what it really means | 12:58 |
| head_victim | Lets hope they return so we can ask more questions | 13:00 |
| stlsaint | head_victim: well i couldnt send the video of the streaming stuff but another part of the errror popped before ending with (initramfs) | 13:03 |
| stlsaint | head_victim: emailed ya ;) | 13:03 |
| head_victim | stlsaint: got the screenshot | 13:03 |
| stlsaint | head_victim: the one i just sent? | 13:04 |
| stlsaint | initramfs one | 13:04 |
| head_victim | Yep | 13:05 |
| stlsaint | aye that seems to be the last of it | 13:05 |
| stlsaint | bug time? | 13:07 |
| head_victim | Can you install normal Ubuntu without the errors? | 13:08 |
| stlsaint | head_victim: wish i could test but i dont have a ubuntu iso, only other variants :D | 13:11 |
| head_victim | Try any of them then | 13:12 |
| stlsaint | head_victim: i did | 13:13 |
| stlsaint | head_victim: the others work | 13:13 |
| head_victim | Bug time | 13:13 |
| stlsaint | debian, back-track, crunchbang | 13:13 |
| head_victim | As per our great leader, we need the steps to reproduce and report it against the lubuntu-meta package :) | 13:18 |
| stlsaint | 1. Download lubuntu 11.04 :D | 13:19 |
| stlsaint | 2. Use unetbootin to create bootable usb | 13:19 |
| stlsaint | hehe | 13:20 |
| stlsaint | 3. Boot into the usb on a netbook | 13:20 |
| stlsaint | 4. BUG!! | 13:20 |
| stlsaint | head_victim: you filing bug or should i? | 13:22 |
| head_victim | I'll let you do it as you have the ability to reproduce and answer questions if that's ok | 13:23 |

| FernandoBasso | I am really serious. Fast as arch linux, but 'beatiful BY DEFAULT'. :) | 13:46 |
| stlsaint | head_victim: thankx | 13:47 |
| head_victim | FernandoBasso: that's the goals of the system :) So glad you found it and like it | 13:47 |
| FernandoBasso | I don't know why hasn't Canonical adopted Lubuntu officially yet. | 13:47 |
| stlsaint | head_victim: sshhhhhhhhh ;D | 13:48 |
| head_victim | FernandoBasso: it's just waiting a hardware upgrade from Canonical to move it to offical | 13:48 |
| stlsaint | lol | 13:48 |
| stlsaint | fail | 13:48 |
| stlsaint | was hoping julien would chime on that bit :D | 13:49 |
| FernandoBasso | That unity is a not easy to used. Not practical. And niether gnome3. It seems unity and gnome3 philosophy is "the app you need is just 15 clicks away". | 13:49 |
| stlsaint | lol interesting analogy | 13:50 |
| FernandoBasso | I used to use openbox and lxde. But I sincerely hopped that either gnome3 or unity would bring something 'useful'. At least for me, they are no easy to use. Neither are they intuitive, and almost zero-configurable. | 13:51 |
| FernandoBasso | And since I already am a fan of openbox and lxde in general, I can't help feeling that you guys have just made openbox and lxde even more great than they already are. | 13:52 |
| head_victim | I have yet to try unity I must admin | 13:53 |
| head_victim | admit* | 13:53 |
| stlsaint | same here | 13:53 |
| FernandoBasso | I have an opinion, for example, that a house is a house. The way we know 'houses' up to the present time seems to actually be the best way. What other ways could be build a house and make it still be 'practical'? I think the same holds true to desktops. nothingspecial like being able to have virtual vorkspaces and still be able to 'minimize' windows', have a toolbar with the most important icons there. Gnome3 doesn' | 13:57 |
| FernandoBasso | Perhaps in with the time some things will be improved and usability may get better. | 13:58 |
| head_victim | I'm thinking 12.04 will be when unity shines or rusts | 14:02 |
| KM0201 | head_victim: i agree (but unity really isn't that bad in 11.04, but it does need some work, and like you, I think it will be a gradual process) | 14:09 |
| head_victim | KM0201: yep, can only get better really. | 14:12 |
| FernandoBasso | My doubt is whether the paradigm of 'desktop' can be changed so much. | 14:15 |
| FernandoBasso | I am not saying that it is not possible, though. | 14:15 |
| FernandoBasso | Specially, the way we 'manage' the desktop in general. | 14:16 |
| kalithlev | if i create some custom .desktop files, how do i get them to show up in lxpanel? | 14:24 |
| mr-rich | ok ... rebooted after installing mini.iso & apt-get'ing lubuntu ... I have no X ... blank screen ... | 14:25 |
| bioterror | kalithlev, by defining proper Category= | 14:27 |
| bioterror | http://standards.freedesktop.org/desktop-entry-spec/latest/ | 14:28 |
| mr-rich | screen on F7 sez "*Starting NTP server" & "*Starting bluetooth" ... blinking cursor ... | 14:28 |
| mr-rich | I can get to a console (CTRL-ALT-F1/F6) ... | 14:29 |
| bioterror | say "startx" | 14:29 |
| kalithlev | i don't really want to put them in /usr/share/applications bioterror | 14:29 |
| bioterror | that's what the specification says | 14:30 |
| FernandoBasso | (09:49) < head_vict> FernandoBasso: it's just waiting a hardware upgrade from Canonical to move it to offical. <--- What? | 14:31 |
| Ahmuck-Jr | unity is ok, and works for tablets, not for desktops | 14:33 |
| mr-rich | bioterror: not at a console ...blank screen with just those words ... I'll try it at a console screen ... | 14:33 |
| Ahmuck-Jr | for example, the hiding part, doesn't work for some of us on desktops, but on table would make sense | 14:33 |
| FernandoBasso | I guess you are right. | 14:34 |
| Ahmuck-Jr | single clicks are fine, but on a desktop configuraiton options via right mouse click are still important | 14:34 |
| Ahmuck-Jr | unity bar needs soem configuration options, for tablet or desktop setup | 14:35 |
| Ahmuck-Jr | i liked it but it limited my abilty to work from my desktop | 14:36 |
| FernandoBasso | I think anyone who knows how to configure openbox would probably be much more satisfied with it than kde/gnome/unity. And I myself know the very basics. | 14:38 |
| FernandoBasso | For example, gnome2.x never had an option to change desktops with the mouse wheel. | 14:40 |
| cjohnston | I'm trying to run 64bit as a live cd from a usb stick and im getting a stdin: error 0 | 17:20 |
| cjohnston | any ideas? | 17:20 |
| Relevant | I cant seem to fine a lubuntu live disc ISO | 17:35 |
| LAcan | Relevant, it exists | 17:40 |

| Ahmuck-Jr | is there a leak in flash in lubuntu? | 17:47 |
| fredarko | i am the latest user but i have not yet been registered. | 18:02 |
| KM0201 | Ahmuck-Jr: i think so.. honestly,l i installed the flasth 10.3 beta, it fixed a lot of problems for me | 18:13 |
| * Ahmuck-Jr is finding a lot of bugs ... | 18:24 | |
| KM0201 | Ahmuck-Jr: and windows is bug free? | 18:25 |
| KM0201 | Ahmuck-Jr: what "bugs" are you finding (i think to often newbs say something is a bug, and in reality, they just don't now what they're talking about) | 18:26 |
| Ahmuck-Jr | honestly? well, panel bar, Panel Settings --> Panel Preferences --> Application Launch Bar --> Edit --> Window opens behind the existing one | 18:31 |
| KM0201 | lol, you're really that geeked up about a window placement issue? | 18:32 |
| KM0201 | move the freaking window on top of it, and set it up | 18:32 |
| Ahmuck-Jr | focus is wrong | 18:32 |
| * KM0201 laughs | 18:32 | |
| KM0201 | you should stick w/ bug free windows. | 18:32 |
| Ahmuck-Jr | Panel Settings on left click, but title says Panel Preferences | 18:33 |
| * Ahmuck-Jr kicks KM0201 int he shins | 18:33 | |
| KM0201 | Ahmuck-Jr: you're really griping about stupid stuff, are they minor things? of course, but I can't believe someone would even be upset about a menu saying "panel settings" and then going to a "panel preferences" window. | 18:33 |
| Ahmuck-Jr | it's inconsistant | 18:34 |
| KM0201 | well, win 7 is super consistant, that should work well for you. | 18:34 |
| * KM0201 shakes his head | 18:34 | |
| KM0201 | i'm just curious if either of those "bugs" effect functionality at all? | 18:34 |
| Ahmuck-Jr | the title, no, the focus, yes | 18:35 |
| KM0201 | you see those two things and you say "there's a lot of bugs"... im not sure whether to laugh or cry | 18:35 |
| KM0201 | how does the focus cause a problem? | 18:35 |
| Ahmuck-Jr | it's an extra mouse click | 18:35 |
| KM0201 | move the over window, and adjust the "unfocused" window as you see fit | 18:35 |
| Ahmuck-Jr | move and click | 18:35 |
| KM0201 | oh geez. | 18:35 |
| Ahmuck-Jr | i suppose i could move back to ubuntu | 18:38 |
| Ahmuck-Jr | >-) | 18:38 |
| Ahmuck-Jr | sudo aptitude install lynx | 18:43 |
| Ahmuck-Jr | er | 18:43 |
| Ahmuck-Jr | KM0201: i understand good gui design | 18:44 |
| KM0201 | it's not perfect by any stretch, but you're making out a couple minor GUI bugsto be serious issues. | 18:45 |
| Ahmuck-Jr | KM0201: why did you assume I was upset rather than merely reporting the issues | 19:07 |
| KM0201 | Ahmuck-Jr: cuz this isn't where you report issues? | 19:08 |
| KM0201 | and comments like "I understand good GUI design"... | 19:08 |
| Ahmuck-Jr | sorry. i'll take it to #lubuntu-offtopic in the future | 19:08 |
| KM0201 | not really for off topic either.. if you think something is a bug, then just file a bug report | 19:09 |
| Ahmuck-Jr | i'll pass. i'm not to fond of bug reporting in launchpad. in the past i've reported bugs there as well, navigating, and nothing get's done there. | 19:10 |
| Ahmuck-Jr | i've found it best to not report them at all | 19:10 |
| KM0201 | Ahmuck-Jr: lol, well if nothng is getting done, then likely what you're reporting is either 1. not a bug, or 2. a low priority that will be fixed later | 19:11 |
| KM0201 | there's been lots of bugs fixed as a result of launchpad reports | 19:11 |
| Ahmuck-Jr | conversation finished | 19:12 |
| KM0201 | if thats how you feel.. but i've reported bugs plenty of times to launchpad (or signed on to ones already reported) and quite a few of them have been fixed in the past. right now the only one I'm on, is the vlc bug.. | 19:13 |

| esmirlin | hey guys, what about changing the login screen background? | 20:09 |
| jmarsden | esmirlin: man lxdm will show you what config file to edit for that. | 20:16 |
| MrChrisDruif | jmarsden; Natty uses lightdm right? ;) | 20:16 |
| bioterror | why would it use | 20:16 |
| jmarsden | I've never heard of lightdm... will check... my lubuntu1104 VM uses lxdm as far as I can see :) | 20:17 |
| jmarsden | MrChrisDruif: There is no lightdm in my Lubuntu 1104 setup, so I think you are mistaken ? | 20:17 |
| MrChrisDruif | jmarsden; Might be so...I'll check what the release notes say | 20:18 |
| bioterror | MrChrisDruif, something to read for you: http://mjg59.livejournal.com/136274.html | 20:19 |
| esmirlin | still not sure of where is the pic located :S | 20:19 |
| bioterror | it's in the theme folder | 20:20 |
| bioterror | wall.png | 20:20 |
| jmarsden | /usr/share/lxdm/themes/Lubuntu/wall.png # but dont edit it, create a new theme and set lxdm to use your new custom theme. | 20:21 |
| esmirlin | why? | 20:22 |
| bioterror | cp -r Lubuntu newtheme | 20:22 |
| bioterror | and edit /etc/lxdm/default.conf to use another theme | 20:23 |
| jmarsden | esmirlin: Because that is how the whole system is designed, to be themable... :) | 20:23 |
| bioterror | esmirlin, when you mess your system, you have something to rollback to | 20:23 |
| esmirlin | :P | 20:23 |
| esmirlin | thanks guys! | 20:23 |
| jmarsden | esmirlin: You're welcome. | 20:24 |
| iphaRa | hello guys, how can I change the screen resolution to 1024x600? there is no such resolution in Start>Preferences>Monitor Settings | 20:32 |
| samuel_ | does anyone know when PCManFM 0.9.9 starts supporting UTF-8? | 20:33 |
| jmarsden | samuel_: In filenames? Or it its localized user interface translation files?? | 20:34 |
| samuel_ | in filenames, i can't copy filenames when it contains non ascii chars | 20:35 |
| samuel_ | jmarsden, in filenames, i can't copy filenames when it contains non ascii chars | 20:35 |
| jmarsden | Hmmm. It should, I think... I'll test it here... | 20:36 |
| samuel_ | PCManFM shows ? instead of the special char | 20:36 |
| samuel_ | ë, é and such show as a questionmark, I use the Dutch localised version of Lubuntu, 11.04 i think this is | 20:38 |
| jmarsden | samuel_: For me it works fine... in Lubuntu 11.04. I have files named ıntəˈnæʃənəl and ∀x∈ℝ (just to use some really weird characters!) and they show up fine. | 20:41 |
| samuel_ | jmarsden, any idea what could be the cause? | 20:42 |
| jmarsden | Sounds like something somewhere told pcmanfm to use USASCII, or to use a font that does not have the characters you need in it? | 20:42 |
| jmarsden | Is "the Ducth localized version of 11.04" the official ISO, but installed for the Dutch language? Or some unofficial version someone made in the Netherlands?? | 20:43 |
| samuel_ | jmarsden, i can create a empty textfile with nonascii chars | 20:44 |
| samuel_ | its the official version | 20:44 |
| jmarsden | OK. I did echo "∀x∈ℝ" >∀x∈ℝ | 20:44 |
| jmarsden | to create one of my test files... worked fine, then I fired up pcmanfm and looked at that folder, and it displays correctly. | 20:45 |
| samuel_ | after installation i get the option to upgrade some software to my local though but that is not the cause | 20:45 |
| samuel_ | mmm, i use sabnzb to download stuff | 20:45 |
| samuel_ | those file are unzipped by sabnab to | 20:46 |
| jmarsden | What is sabnzb?? And where did you get it from? | 20:46 |
| samuel_ | jmarsden, SABnzbd is an Open Source Binary Newsreader written in Python | 20:46 |
| jmarsden | Oh, some sort of file downloader tool... OK. | 20:46 |
| jmarsden | If you do echo "∀x∈ℝ" >∀x∈ℝ in LXterminal, and then ls, do you see the filename displayed correctly in the terminal? | 20:47 |
| samuel_ | works fine perhaps the unzip/unrar thingy is the cause | 20:47 |
| jmarsden | OK, so yes... sounds like pcmanfm is not the problem :) | 20:48 |
| samuel_ | jmarsden, yeah the echo works fine | 20:48 |
| samuel_ | so we can rule out Lubuntu to? | 20:48 |
| jmarsden | OK, and now in pcmanfm does that file look good? | 20:48 |
| samuel_ | jmarsden, it does show up correct yes | 20:49 |
| samuel_ | seems sabnzb related then | 20:49 |
| jmarsden | OK. So pcmanfm is fne. If you installed sabnzbdplus from the Ubuntu repositories, and it has an internationalization issue, you could file a bug against that package. | 20:49 |
| samuel_ | jmarsden, i just did sudo apt-get install sabnzb | 20:50 |
| samuel_ | and it installed fine | 20:50 |
| samuel_ | its not a big problem, i guess it will be fixed at some point | 20:51 |
| jmarsden | OK... except that there is no package named sabnzb in the official Ubuntu repos that I can find... did you get it from an unofficial repository? | 20:51 |
| samuel_ | how come it installed fine using the command request? | 20:53 |
| lighta | probably not same repo | 20:53 |
| jmarsden | I don't know, sudo apt-get install sabnzb does not find such a package for me here. sudo apt-get install sabnzbdplus does. | 20:53 |
| jmarsden | samuel_: Did you add any non-standard repositories to your machine? | 20:54 |
| samuel_ | yes, my mistake its fullname is indeed sabnzbdplus | 20:54 |
| samuel_ | jmarsden, firefox and opera | 20:54 |
| samuel_ | i guess those are not supported | 20:55 |
| jmarsden | OK. I sugges you file a bug in Launchpad against that package and provide details on how to duplicate the issue, and hopefully someone will fix it. | 20:55 |
| samuel_ | i | 20:55 |
| samuel_ | i'll try to duplicate it first | 20:56 |
| jmarsden | Sure. | 20:56 |
| samuel_ | i did have happen something strange just 2 days ago | 20:57 |
| samuel_ | when turning on my notebook with Lubuntu 11.04 installed it would give me a login screen instead | 20:58 |
| samuel_ | have not seen that before | 20:58 |
| samuel_ | even more strange, i could not login in with my username/password | 20:58 |
| samuel_ | had to reinstall everything | 20:59 |
| KM0201 | where is the 64bit download | 22:17 |
