| phillw | KM0201: he is the correct room now :) | 00:47 |
| KM0201 | lol | 00:47 |

| KM0201 | nope.. :) | 02:11 |
| KM0201 | u? | 02:11 |
| KM0201 | poltak: | 02:11 |
| poltak | KM0201: does lubuntu have the software store? | 02:11 |
| KM0201 | not by default.. i think you can install it if you want it though | 02:11 |
| KM0201 | it has synaptic | 02:12 |
| poltak | hmm what distro do you use? | 02:12 |
| KM0201 | lubuntu | 02:12 |
| KM0201 | 11.04 | 02:12 |
| poltak | I use Arch | 02:13 |
| poltak | I would like lubntu because it is nice fast and good for old hardware | 02:13 |
| KM0201 | yeah, if you can use arch, you'll figure out ubuntu/lubuntu | 02:13 |

| n0yd | hey guys and girls | 02:41 |
| n0yd | Anyone have issues with ccsm not working in lubuntu? it wsorked fine on my regular gnome desktop on same install | 02:41 |
| n0yd | \it justy gives me a straace when i try to run | 02:41 |
| KM0201 | any smart people around? | 04:06 |
| Unit193 | Rules me out... | 04:06 |
| KM0201 | lovely | 04:06 |
| KM0201 | is there a way to use Gksudo, w/ pcmanfm? | 04:06 |
| Unit193 | :D | 04:06 |
| KM0201 | here's what happened. | 04:07 |
| KM0201 | i was just using my laptop, like normal, closed firefox, went to restart it, said there was an unexpected error in an unknown application, it done that on any app i started | 04:07 |
| KM0201 | so i restarted, | 04:07 |
| KM0201 | now, i log in at the login screen, it looks like it logs in, then drops back to the log inscreen | 04:07 |
| KM0201 | im not really concerned w/ fixing the problem (i tried rm'ing Xauthority, etc. | 04:08 |
| KM0201 | my main issue, is i want to back up /.thunderbird | 04:09 |

| Unit193 | KM0201: Backup .thunderbird? You SFTP it over to another computer or boot off a liveCD | 04:13 |
| KM0201 | Unit193: i booted a lubuntu live usb... but whenever i access my /home, it says permission denied, so i tried sudo cp... permission denied. | 04:13 |
| KM0201 | i know gksudo works, cuz i've used it before. | 04:13 |
| KM0201 | but for some reason... gksudo doesn't get used in lubuntu | 04:14 |
| KM0201 | its no big deal.. worst that happens is i put ubuntu on a live cd, and do that real quick, then reinstall lubuntu. | 04:14 |
| KM0201 | i was able to move a couple of movies, etc.. to my backup.. but when i try to back up, say... /.thunderbird i get no joy | 04:15 |
| Unit193 | ls -l -a |grep thunder | 04:20 |
| KM0201 | whats thunder? | 04:22 |

| head_victim | Hmm is it default to have colours in LXTerminal or is it just some config file I have stored from years ago? | 05:59 |
| bioterror | what colors | 06:01 |
| head_victim | Dark and light blues | 06:01 |
| head_victim | cd / | 06:01 |
| head_victim | and then | 06:01 |
| head_victim | ls | 06:01 |
| bioterror | ls colors | 06:01 |
| bioterror | im a zsh user | 06:02 |
| head_victim | I was just using the default stuff but it did have some sort of terminal config from a previous install | 06:03 |
| bioterror | i have alias for them | 06:03 |
| bioterror | it has nothing to do with terminal | 06:03 |
| bioterror | its in your bashrc | 06:03 |
| bioterror | or profile | 06:04 |
| === wiZZZZZZone is now known as wizonesolutions | ||
| jmarsden | By default, Ubuntu and Lubuntu set alias ls=ls --color=auto (in .etc/skel/.bashrc | 06:23 |
| head_victim | I just modified the bash.rc | 06:36 |
| head_victim | I like time and date stamps as well | 06:36 |
| head_victim | Takes up a lot more room on the screen but with a 24inch monitor it doesn't really matter | 06:37 |
| jmarsden | For a way to see the date/time of last prompt in the window title, you can do things like PROMPT_COMMAND='echo -ne "\033]0;`date +%F\ %T` ${USER}@`hostname --fqdn`: ${PWD/$HOME/~}\007"' | 06:45 |
| jmarsden | This avoids wasting space in the terminal window itself :) | 06:45 |
| head_victim | Thu_19May2011_15:45:59_jared@galapagos:~$ | 06:45 |
| head_victim | That's my prompt | 06:45 |
| head_victim | That being said I have a similar timestamp on IRC | 06:46 |
| bioterror | head_victim, would you like to try zsh? ;) | 06:47 |
| head_victim | I don't even know what that is bioterror ;) | 06:47 |
| bioterror | head_victim, something beyond bash | 06:47 |
| === wizonesolutions is now known as wiZZZone | ||
| head_victim | I hardly use bash so probably not ;) I'm what you call a "novice end user" | 06:48 |
| bioterror | isnt it time to rise above others? | 06:48 |
| bioterror | maybe yo | 06:49 |
| bioterror | you will understand more why terminal > gui ;) | 06:49 |
| head_victim | I already understand terminal > gui for certain thiings it's just I don't use a lot of those things regularly ;) | 06:50 |
| jmarsden | head_victim: my PROMPT_COMMAND makes my window title look something like: 2011-05-18 22:51:55 jonathan@black.jmarsden.org: /home/jonathan/packages/bibledit/main | 06:53 |
| jmarsden | But my shell prompt is quite a bit shorter :) | 06:53 |
| bioterror | my window title says hmmm | 06:53 |
| bioterror | what did it say | 06:53 |
| bioterror | it says lots of stuff | 06:54 |
| bioterror | like last command, which tty | 06:54 |
| bioterror | under screen that does not work ;) | 06:54 |
| jmarsden | bioterror: Right, I wrap that setting inside a case statement that checks your $TERM is xterm or rxvt to try to handle that little issue. | 06:55 |
| * jmarsden has a .bashrc around 200 lines long... :) | 06:55 | |
| bioterror | http://ricecows.org/weekhat.png | 06:56 |
| bioterror | example | 06:56 |
| bioterror | tty, folder and last command | 06:57 |
| jmarsden | last command is ssh but shows an irc client... shouldn't it show the command that started the irc client?? | 06:57 |
| bioterror | last command is ssh | 06:58 |
| bioterror | to my shell | 06:58 |
| jmarsden | OK... you are so paranoid you need to run IRC non-locally?? :) | 06:59 |
| bioterror | I run it becouse my cable conenction sucks and oh well | 07:00 |
| bioterror | this is kinda free for me ;) | 07:00 |
| bioterror | my friend runs webhotel and stuff | 07:00 |
| bioterror | and I help when I can with things like moving servers in the middle of the night from cave to another :D | 07:00 |
| bioterror | and I have three domains hosted too | 07:01 |
| bioterror | and emails there for me, my wife and my parents with unlimited quota | 07:01 |
| jmarsden | so I can send you a 5 Exabyte email? :) | 07:01 |
| bioterror | first you need to get that ammount of space :D | 07:02 |
| bioterror | cat /dev/urandom > ;D | 07:02 |
| jmarsden | No, I can write a program to generate it one byte at a time :) | 07:02 |
| jmarsden | You need the space to receive it, not to send it :) | 07:02 |
| bioterror | but ofcourse I try not to abuse this thing | 07:02 |
| head_victim | Nice, I've just lost my mouse pointer, it's invisible but still there sort of | 07:23 |
| bioterror | I took it | 07:23 |
| head_victim | DAMN YOU | 07:23 |
| bioterror | I need more mouse pointers | 07:23 |
| head_victim | Might be synergy related | 07:23 |
| head_victim | Nope | 07:24 |
| head_victim | Damn mouse pointers | 07:25 |
| head_victim | Any suggestions on resetting that without a restart of X ? | 07:25 |
| bioterror | try lxpanel and mouse icon :P | 07:25 |
| head_victim | just killed the lxpanel, it's gone but the pointer hasn't returned :/ | 07:26 |
| bioterror | sorry | 07:26 |
| bioterror | I need to drink my cup of coffee till end | 07:27 |
| bioterror | becouse I ment lxappearance | 07:27 |
| bioterror | without lxpanel lxde is rather useless :G | 07:27 |
| bioterror | head_victim, you're too trigger happy | 07:27 |
| head_victim | No lxappearance here | 07:27 |
| head_victim | And I can get my panel back easily enough | 07:28 |
| head_victim | Hmm | 07:28 |
| head_victim | I'm thinking restarting X might be my only option :/ | 07:29 |
| head_victim | In which case I may as well reboot for that kernel update as well | 07:29 |
| jmarsden | head_victim: Just learn to use the shell instead of a GUI :) | 07:29 |
| bioterror | head say in terminal: service lxdm restart ;) | 07:29 |
| head_victim | bioterror: does that restart X though? | 07:29 |
| bioterror | yeah | 07:29 |
| head_victim | HAHAHA I think my mouse batteries died | 07:30 |
| head_victim | I found the pointer. It's stationary | 07:30 |
| bioterror | :D | 07:30 |
| head_victim | On that note I shall go shopping and let it recharge *docks mouse and feels like an idiot* | 07:31 |
| bioterror | hahhaha | 07:31 |
| bioterror | you at least have that dock | 07:31 |
| head_victim | Heh I got my lxpanel back as well though so it's not like I lost anything | 07:32 |
| jmarsden | There is no known Lubuntu command to return mouse to dock to recharge dead mouse batteries... you have to do that yourself :) | 07:34 |
| bioterror | needs some physical work | 07:35 |
| bioterror | move hand | 07:35 |
| bioterror | "sudo mv mouse dock" | 07:35 |
| poltak | what kind of kernel does lubuntu use? (and please don't say "linux") | 08:23 |
| bioterror | 32bit :D | 08:23 |
| bioterror | or if you're using that AMD64 test iso | 08:23 |
| bioterror | you have 64bit kernel! | 08:23 |
| poltak | ... | 08:24 |
| bioterror | could you specify more | 08:24 |
| poltak | don't | 08:24 |
| poltak | Does it use the same kernel as Ubuntu? | 08:25 |
| bioterror | there's this generic kernel, then there's PAE-kernel and even realtime kernel | 08:25 |
| bioterror | poltak, ofcourse it uses the same kernel as ubuntu, or kubuntu or even the xubuntu uses | 08:25 |
| bioterror | we use the same repository | 08:25 |
| poltak | don't | 08:25 |
| bioterror | the only difference between ubuntu and lubuntu is that candy what you see on your desktop | 08:25 |
| poltak | and the name | 08:26 |
| bioterror | and bunch of more lightweight applications that's shipped | 08:26 |
| bioterror | poltak, but I give you props for that Linux comment ;) | 08:30 |
| lighta | hi here, what the command to start lxfe panel again ? start lfce-panel seem not the good one | 08:30 |
| bioterror | :) | 08:30 |
| bioterror | lxpanel --profile Lubuntu | 08:31 |
| lighta | thx bioterror =) | 08:31 |
| bioterror | lighta, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Lubuntu/Documentation/FAQ bookmarks it ;) | 08:31 |
| lighta | yep eh I found it weird one panel stuck wasn't easy to start app again | 08:32 |
| lighta | I mean I used formally xfce, I just add to do right clic then navigate to app but here na ! had to do the way in usr/bin/ lol | 08:32 |
| poltak | bioterror: I reject your prop | 08:33 |
| head_victim | Hey lookk, my mouse works again now | 08:41 |
| bioterror | \o/ | 08:41 |
| MrChrisDruif | Great head_victim :) | 08:48 |
| head_victim | If anyone is ever looking for a good book to buy that wants to learn about linux and sys admin stuff http://www.apress.com/9781430219125 is awesome | 09:26 |
| head_victim | It's more beginner than pro but still awesome for learners like me | 09:27 |
| head_victim | hmm where can I find bash alias'? I thought I'd fixed the colour problem but find and ls and stuff still have colours :/ | 10:10 |
| bioterror | /etc/bash.bashrc | 10:10 |
| head_victim | Nothing in there at all | 10:14 |
| bioterror | really | 10:14 |
| head_victim | Well nothing colour related | 10:14 |
| bioterror | Thu08:23*<jmarsden> By default, Ubuntu and Lubuntu set alias ls=ls --color=auto (in .etc/skel/.bashrc | 10:14 |
| head_victim | unset color_prompt force_color_prompt | 10:15 |
| head_victim | I think that's doing something | 10:18 |
| head_victim | Nah found it | 10:18 |
| head_victim | Sorry I should look at the whole file first | 10:18 |
| bioterror | you should use find! | 10:18 |
| head_victim | Yeah was trying to be lazy in nano | 10:18 |

| silverarrow | hi | 12:12 |
| head_victim | Gday silverarrow | 12:15 |
| silverarrow | hi head | 12:23 |
| stlsaint | lol | 12:24 |
| stlsaint | hi head | 12:24 |
| silverarrow | I'm considering downloading opera, or grease monkey, and hopefully make them play youtube videos | 12:26 |
| stlsaint | silverarrow: chromium doesnt work? | 12:31 |
| bioterror | good luck with Opera | 12:31 |
| bioterror | try facebook for example with Opera and you will notice nice CPU load | 12:31 |
| silverarrow | it's suppose to be difficult with chromium, but opera and grease monkey are possible | 12:31 |
| silverarrow | true lol | 12:32 |
| silverarrow | opera is a bit taxing, but fire fox is even worse | 12:32 |
| bioterror | I liked MacGyver when he had that pocket knife, but then again Opera is horrible | 12:32 |
| silverarrow | yeah, maybe on the very tiny computers | 12:33 |
| bioterror | MacGyver did awesome things with this knife, but Opera is a worse in everything | 12:33 |
| bioterror | as a browser, as a mail client, as a what ever | 12:33 |
| silverarrow | it is? | 12:33 |
| bioterror | silverarrow, try midori | 12:34 |
| bioterror | give it a chance | 12:34 |
| silverarrow | when I did research on the library, and had all kinds of online books, documents and flash streams going, Opera was the only one that never crashed | 12:34 |
| silverarrow | in Puppy linux opera ran very smoothly on minimal systems, when fire fox didn't | 12:36 |
| silverarrow | but now, I am in lubuntu, so maybe not opera then | 12:36 |
| bioterror | Chrome likes RAM | 12:36 |
| bioterror | that's for sure | 12:36 |
| bioterror | or Chromium | 12:37 |
| bioterror | try midori | 12:37 |
| silverarrow | chromium works fine, and I have only 1GB right now | 12:37 |
| bioterror | did you install midori? | 12:37 |
| silverarrow | adobe doesn't run smoothly, but vlc does for some reason | 12:37 |
| poltak | midori is lovely | 12:38 |
| silverarrow | I am opening package manager ;- ) | 12:38 |
| bioterror | silverarrow, sudo apt-get install midori | 12:38 |
| bioterror | it's that easy ;) | 12:38 |
| silverarrow | lol | 12:38 |
| bioterror | I yesterday saw once again wacom users | 12:39 |
| bioterror | and they said I would never use mouse again if I tried to use wacom for a week | 12:39 |
| poltak | bioterror: your point? | 12:40 |
| silverarrow | now I have midori | 12:40 |
| silverarrow | do you draw a lot? | 12:43 |
| bioterror | silverarrow, how does it play? | 12:43 |
| bioterror | silverarrow, I dont draw, but those guys downstairs draws | 12:43 |
| bioterror | and when I get to their computers, it's like ":D" | 12:43 |
| silverarrow | lol | 12:43 |
| silverarrow | yeah, it can be fun | 12:44 |
| bioterror | you keep that pen above that board and try to click by movign pen down :D | 12:44 |
| silverarrow | hmm, midori is veeeryyy slow | 12:46 |
| bioterror | is it? | 12:46 |
| bioterror | should be fast like greased lightning | 12:46 |
| silverarrow | perhaps just the few seconds, | 12:46 |
| poltak | silverarrow: you should probably use links if midori's too slow for you | 12:46 |
| silverarrow | it seems to run fine now | 12:46 |
| bioterror | poltak, +1 ;D | 12:46 |
| bioterror | links -g | 12:46 |
| silverarrow | I mean, it looks like it was slow only in the very beginning, but not now | 12:48 |
| silverarrow | weird thing is that Opera was really quick in Puppy Linux | 12:49 |
| bioterror | as I said, try facebook with opera and you will notice that it uses lots of cpu | 12:49 |
| bioterror | while chromium for example uses almost nothing at all | 12:49 |
| silverarrow | I will | 12:49 |
| bioterror | but then again, if I use speedtest.net with chromium | 12:49 |
| bioterror | my cpu usage is around 60-80% :D | 12:49 |
| bioterror | and I have slow AMD Athlon X2 2.7GHz | 12:50 |
| bioterror | seems like I need more cores | 12:50 |
| silverarrow | chromium was really bad in puppy, for some reason, | 12:50 |
| silverarrow | at least on the computer I had then | 12:51 |
| silverarrow | but in lubuntu, it works fine | 12:51 |
| silverarrow | I used to like firefox, had it for years, but then I got used to opera, | 12:52 |
| silverarrow | on my ubuntu computer I had firefox and xp computer opera | 12:53 |
| bioterror | like googles sync more than opera's sync | 12:53 |
| bioterror | I get everything synced with chromium and chrome | 12:53 |
| bioterror | no big hustle with those | 12:54 |
| silverarrow | internet explorer wasn't the best there for a while, but the latest versions have pretty much fixed a lot of problems | 12:54 |
| bioterror | it's still slow | 12:54 |
| bioterror | no matter what kind of hw you have, it's slow | 12:54 |
| bioterror | and I bet IE9 is still a security risk | 12:54 |
| silverarrow | yes, a bit slow, especially at startup | 12:54 |
| bioterror | (I just picked up a laptop for reinstallation becouse of malmware/virus ;) | 12:55 |
| silverarrow | safety is an issu | 12:55 |
| bioterror | I | 12:55 |
| bioterror | I'm now making new images with chrome and firefox 4 installed | 12:55 |
| silverarrow | cool | 12:56 |
| silverarrow | is fire fox the safest still? | 12:56 |
| bioterror | I dont have any problems with Chrome | 12:56 |
| silverarrow | I never had anything in opera, and I had trend micro then | 12:56 |
| silverarrow | with the linix distros I have had I never installed antivirus | 12:58 |
| bioterror | that's becouse there's only few of them and those are not active | 12:58 |
| bioterror | all you have is mostly remote exploits | 12:58 |
| bioterror | you need to run those | 12:58 |
| bioterror | and some holes in softwares :) | 12:58 |
| bioterror | but they get fixed rather fast | 12:59 |
| bioterror | you're pretty safe when you're not having open ports to outworld | 12:59 |
| bioterror | if you have sshd for example, you just remember to disable root login and have a little more tricky username instead of firstname and password that has big letter, number and has more than 6 marks | 13:00 |
| bioterror | small things matters | 13:00 |
| silverarrow | noted | 13:01 |
| bioterror | and you can install fail2ban or denyhosts | 13:01 |
| bioterror | I have denyhosts installed | 13:01 |
| silverarrow | I have to google it | 13:01 |
| bioterror | cat /etc/hosts.deny |wc -l | 13:01 |
| bioterror | 16885 | 13:01 |
| bioterror | ;) | 13:02 |
| bioterror | and from the last 4 days | 13:04 |
| bioterror | sudo cat /var/log/auth.log |grep refused |wc -l | 13:04 |
| bioterror | 51 | 13:04 |
| silverarrow | what I like about firefox and chromium is the toolbar bookmarks, you can have only the logo, no title text | 13:04 |
| silverarrow | very cool | 13:05 |
| silverarrow | thanks for the new info | 13:08 |
| silverarrow | I have to leave now | 13:08 |
| silverarrow | have a fine day | 13:08 |
| silverarrow | thanks for all the help | 13:08 |
| rob_p | What's the best way to add an app launcher to the taskbar? | 13:44 |
| bioterror | what kind of app | 13:44 |
| bioterror | you have it installed? | 13:45 |
| rob_p | bioterror: Things from the, "Accessories" menu. | 13:45 |
| bioterror | you right click that taskbar, you edit that lauched application and you add an item to it | 13:45 |
| bioterror | launcher | 13:45 |
| bioterror | if I remember right | 13:46 |
| bioterror | I dont have lxpanel near me atm. ;) | 13:46 |
| rob_p | Hmm...doesn't seem to be very intuitive... | 13:47 |
| Neosano | Argh! Kupfer stopped working! | 13:48 |
| Neosano | it was working fine yesterday | 13:48 |
| Neosano | it pops up on ctrl+space but I can't type anything | 13:49 |
| Neosano | wrong channel, I know... but still :| | 13:49 |
| rob_p | bioterror: I right-click the taskbar and the only thing that looks promising is a menu item that says, "Add/Remove panel items" so I select that. From there, I get a window with a bunch of things that don't lead me to the items in, "Accessories" so it doesn't seem to be possible. | 13:49 |
| Neosano | uhm what's was the problem? | 13:50 |
| rob_p | Neosano: Was your question directed at me? | 13:51 |
| bioterror | I'll buut my 10.10 pendrive | 13:51 |
| Neosano | rob_p, yeah ^^ | 13:51 |
| rob_p | Neosano: What's the best way to add an app launcher to the taskbar? | 13:51 |
| Neosano | o_o | 13:51 |
| rob_p | Neosano: I just want to put a launcher for lxterminal in my taskbar. | 13:52 |
| Neosano | add remove panel items/add/application launch bar | 13:52 |
| Neosano | then click on the launch bar, then click Edit | 13:52 |
| bioterror | hmmm | 13:52 |
| bioterror | right click panel | 13:52 |
| bioterror | panel settings | 13:52 |
| bioterror | choose panel applets tab | 13:52 |
| bioterror | there's application launcher bar | 13:53 |
| bioterror | choose chat active and edit | 13:53 |
| Neosano | bioterror, hmm, does it work ok from your pendrive? | 13:53 |
| bioterror | I assume you can figure out the rest | 13:53 |
| bioterror | Neosano, ofcourse it does, I made that stick ;) | 13:53 |
| Neosano | bioterror, mine freezes sometimes. :\ | 13:53 |
| Neosano | bioterror, just for a sec or two.. | 13:53 |
| rob_p | bioterror: Neosano: Oh, now I see what was happening. I added launchbars but they need to be edited... | 13:54 |
| Neosano | rob_p, yeah ^.^ you can right click your launch bars directly from the panel | 13:54 |
| rob_p | bioterror: Neosano: Slightly unintuitive but now that I know the process, seems easy enough. Thanks for the help. | 13:55 |
| Neosano | bioterror, especially 5 minutes after the boot.. shouldn't it work faster than from a hdd? | 13:55 |
| bioterror | no | 13:55 |
| bioterror | usb stick is slower than hdd ;) | 14:08 |
| Neosano | damn.. then is there a way to minimize disk usage? | 14:13 |
| budo | live cd will not boot into gui | 14:48 |
| bioterror | what's the error | 14:48 |
| budo | well........once you boot the live cd it enters black and white screen command mode | 14:49 |
| bioterror | hmm | 14:50 |
| budo | error occurs when I enter command: startx | 14:50 |
| bioterror | hmmmm | 14:50 |
| bioterror | herp n derp | 14:50 |
| bioterror | I say | 14:50 |
| bioterror | !mini | budo | 14:50 |
| ubot5 | budo: The 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/MinimalCD | 14:50 |
| bioterror | try minimal installation | 14:50 |
| bioterror | install from that and we might have better resources to try fix the problem | 14:50 |
| bioterror | once you have minimal installation installed, you can say "sudo apt-get install lubuntu-desktop --no-install-recommends" | 14:51 |
| budo | okay umm is this a try out version? | 14:53 |
| budo | try out lubuntu without installing it on the hard drive? | 14:53 |
| bioterror | no | 14:53 |
| bioterror | you will install ubuntu wit minimal installation | 14:53 |
| bioterror | and then fetch all the lubuntu stuff | 14:53 |
| bioterror | I rather try to fix a working installation than LiveCD session | 14:53 |
| budo | oh ok hmm | 14:54 |
| budo | lbuntu is very slim and fast, right? | 14:55 |
| bioterror | yes | 14:57 |
| bioterror | and remember to first run "sudo apt-get update" | 14:57 |
| bioterror | before you install lubuntu-desktop ;) | 14:57 |
| budo | well....i'll need to back up some files b4 i get started, brb | 14:59 |
| silverarrow | hi | 15:57 |
| silverarrow | yesterday I installed lubuntu to my new harddrive, and happen to burn the old version, but updated to the new one right away | 15:58 |
| silverarrow | now I am trying to figure out how to make videoplayer work properly, if I have all the restricted packages I need | 15:59 |
| bioterror | install vlc, easieräää | 16:01 |
| bioterror | easier... even | 16:01 |
| silverarrow | I have marked of for the restricted extras and plugins | 16:01 |
| silverarrow | I did | 16:01 |
| bioterror | if you dont have anything against qt | 16:01 |
| silverarrow | VLC is my favorite | 16:01 |
| silverarrow | it doesn't play torrent dowloads | 16:02 |
| bioterror | it plays anything you throw at it | 16:02 |
| silverarrow | yeah, usually | 16:02 |
| bioterror | what kind of pr0n have you leeched? | 16:02 |
| silverarrow | this old movie I downloaded plays in the gnome player | 16:02 |
| silverarrow | and old scary movie | 16:02 |
| bioterror | hmmm | 16:02 |
| silverarrow | I thought it was the version plaing in the movies now, but it turned out to be an old one | 16:03 |
| bioterror | would you download a car if you could? | 16:03 |
| silverarrow | I also dowloaded Red Riding Hood, but neither of them takes the rar stuff | 16:04 |
| bioterror | hahaha | 16:04 |
| silverarrow | neither gnome or vlc | 16:04 |
| bioterror | thats becouse they are compressed | 16:04 |
| silverarrow | yeah, funny, but I needed to have something to play and try out | 16:04 |
| bioterror | unrar x fooooooo.rar | 16:04 |
| bioterror | xbmc actually handles those | 16:05 |
| bioterror | fyi | 16:05 |
| silverarrow | hmm, I have opened rar in vlc before, but I cannot remember what I did | 16:05 |
| bioterror | stupid scene releases | 16:05 |
| silverarrow | yes | 16:05 |
| bioterror | after unpacking rm *.r* | 16:06 |
| silverarrow | the dvd player is not working either | 16:09 |
| silverarrow | hmm | 16:09 |
| silverarrow | do I need more than the restricted packages found in package manager? | 16:09 |
| silverarrow | somehow it does read the dvd, I can see a list of stuff when opening as a folder | 16:11 |
| bioterror | libdvdcss2 or what was it | 16:11 |
| bioterror | !dvd | 16:11 |

| bioterror | !dvdplay | 16:11 |
| KarolRadom | I want to install Lubuntu desktop but now i have xubuntu 10.10. It will be OK if i install lubuntu desktop in synaptic?? | 16:19 |
| silverarrow | hi, I happen to close the window | 16:19 |
| silverarrow | yeas, you should be able to choose desktop environment | 16:20 |
| silverarrow | yes | 16:20 |
| silverarrow | i missed the last posts bioterror made | 16:20 |
| silverarrow | unfortunately | 16:20 |
| KarolRadom | and after that i have to uninstall xubuntu packages?? | 16:20 |
| silverarrow | hmm, I don't think you have to, but it's probably a good idea | 16:21 |
| silverarrow | in my experience the last desktop you choose, sort of sticks | 16:21 |
| silverarrow | and no messup | 16:22 |
| head_victim | KarolRadom: you don't have to, if you don't it will just leave it as an option to log into when you boot up | 16:22 |
| head_victim | silverarrow: he was using a bot command | 16:22 |
| head_victim | !dvd | 16:22 |

| head_victim | That's what he last posted :) | 16:22 |
| silverarrow | thanks | 16:22 |
| head_victim | No worries mate | 16:22 |
| silverarrow | cool | 16:22 |
| KarolRadom | ok thank you for your help | 16:23 |
| silverarrow | I have installed the restricted ones you have to choose manually | 16:23 |
| head_victim | silverarrow: should work then if you follow those instructions | 16:24 |
| silverarrow | it doesn't lol | 16:25 |
| budo | hmm.....the minimal install wont ask me for the partition scheme I want? | 16:29 |
| silverarrow | I still might be missing something | 16:29 |
| silverarrow | you mean manual partitioning table ? | 16:30 |
| silverarrow | there is an option in the regular installation process | 16:31 |
| budo | yes the table | 16:32 |
| budo | okay, thanks | 16:32 |
| silverarrow | I get the message DVDRead could not read -1/4 blocks at 0x01 | 16:33 |
| silverarrow | in vlc | 16:33 |
| silverarrow | budo, I think it is basically an integrated version of G-parted | 16:34 |
| bioterror | budo, what kind of partition table are you after? | 16:41 |
| budo | im thinking 504mb swap, 35mb for /boot, and for 1 dont know, and /mnt/home the rest | 16:46 |
| budo | its 8.5 GB hard drive | 16:46 |
| budo | for / I dont know^ | 16:46 |
| bioterror | rather small | 16:46 |
| budo | yup | 16:46 |
| bioterror | my wife's laptop: 145M /boot | 16:47 |
| bioterror | :----D | 16:47 |
| budo | could I get away with smaller swap? | 16:47 |
| bioterror | how much you have RAM? | 16:47 |
| budo | most people I read only say rarely do people need over 100 mb for /boot | 16:48 |
| budo | 504 mb | 16:48 |
| bioterror | my wife seems to have couple of kernels | 16:48 |
| budo | oh i c | 16:48 |
| bioterror | oh, you have shared RAM with with graphics card? | 16:48 |
| bioterror | is that a laptop? | 16:48 |
| budo | good question lol | 16:49 |
| budo | no desktop | 16:49 |
| bioterror | okay | 16:49 |
| budo | old gateway | 16:49 |
| bioterror | then you dont need 1.5x RAM | 16:49 |
| budo | could I get away with 384? | 16:50 |
| bioterror | oh look, I dont have swap activated atm. :D | 16:50 |
| bioterror | depends | 16:50 |
| bioterror | I dont know your habbits | 16:50 |
| bioterror | but I would put 512MB | 16:50 |
| bioterror | there's some for the case if a program starts to leak memory | 16:51 |
| budo | k | 16:51 |
| bioterror | / is the place where you install programs | 16:52 |
| bioterror | I would go with swap and / | 16:52 |
| bioterror | but that's me | 16:52 |
| silverarrow | with that kind of harddrive, why don't let lubuntu take over and handle it automatically? | 16:52 |
| budo | 800 MB for /, and rest for /mnt/home | 16:52 |
| bioterror | small / | 16:52 |
| bioterror | and logs will be too generated into / | 16:53 |
| silverarrow | hmm, a new harddrive and some ram would improve | 16:53 |
| silverarrow | ram for old portables doesn't cost much these days | 16:54 |
| budo | brb | 16:54 |
| silverarrow | I have a portable with 300 GB harddisk, 700 MGHz CPU, and 1GB ram, runs fine, | 16:55 |
| silverarrow | though for Totem player you need core 2 duo CPU, and 2 GB ram | 16:55 |
| silverarrow | I like the small portables, but only the newest can handle regular Ubuntu and Windows | 16:57 |
| silverarrow | budo, which model is it? | 16:59 |
| bioterror | silverarrow, tobe honest: with flash your cpu is too slow | 17:16 |
| silverarrow | yes it is, that old laptop is a curiosity | 17:17 |
| silverarrow | but a cerelon M 1,5GHz works | 17:17 |
| bioterror | even my few years old dell get's warm with flash | 17:17 |
| KM0201 | Unit193: u around? | 17:18 |
| silverarrow | I used to have this tiny portable with an atom processor, every thing worked but it got hot | 17:18 |
| silverarrow | I think it is about 2 years old now, it came with windows 7 | 17:18 |
| silverarrow | and W7 was pretty new then | 17:19 |
| bioterror | I have couple of Atom boards | 17:19 |
| bioterror | one with 330 and later one with D525 | 17:19 |
| budo | ut oh, error occurred while trying to install the kernel | 17:19 |
| silverarrow | bioterror, VLC streams fine on the old computer | 17:20 |
| silverarrow | adobe, is jerky | 17:20 |
| silverarrow | but, it's way to old to depend upon, it's just that I had this new IDE harddisk and the others are SATA | 17:22 |
| silverarrow | so I had to try it in the old one, | 17:22 |
| silverarrow | my computers keep braking down, and need repair | 17:23 |
| silverarrow | even the new ones | 17:23 |
| bioterror | :D | 17:23 |
| Unit193 | KM0201: Now I am... | 17:27 |
| KM0201 | hang on a sec.. i just closed it... | 17:27 |
| KM0201 | well crap, it won't let me paste it | 17:29 |
| bioterror | !language | KM0201 | 17:30 |
| ubot5 | KM0201: Please watch your language and topic to help keep this channel family-friendly, polite, and professional. | 17:30 |
| KM0201 | bioterror: get bent.. crap isn't a bad word. | 17:30 |
| bioterror | ;) | 17:30 |
| KM0201 | Unit193: can you see the problem here.. specifically 203-209 this worked fine on my laptop... http://pastebin.com/V9RmPzus | 17:32 |
| budo | wont install kernel | 17:32 |
| Unit193 | KM0201: I take it it's just not running? Does it give any sort of error? | 17:44 |
| KM0201 | Unit193: nope, nothing.. i hit ctrl alt l, and nothing at all happens | 17:44 |
| KM0201 | Unit193: another way i could do it... is create a launcher, make it executable, and just add that to my panel and when i need to lock-screen, just click it... i'd be fine w/ that, but i can't figur eout how to create a launcher. | 17:47 |
| KM0201 | unfortunately googling Lubuntu, always turns up "Ubuntu".. and i know how to do it in Ubuntu.. | 17:47 |
| Unit193 | https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Lubuntu/Documentation/FAQ <--- is that what you're looking for? | 17:48 |
| bioterror | KM0201, why dont you use super+l? | 17:48 |
| KM0201 | Unit193: yeah | 17:48 |
| silverarrow | lubuntu is cool, | 17:49 |
| silverarrow | I think I shall have lubuntu in my new laptop | 17:49 |
| KM0201 | Unit193: only thing is... when i use super-l.. it doesn't work.. so go figure. | 17:49 |
| KM0201 | i have cntrl alt l working fine on my laptop, w/ that exact set of lines, but for some reason.. not working on the desktop. | 17:50 |
| Unit193 | Did you logout then back in? | 17:50 |
| KM0201 | yeah. | 17:51 |
| KM0201 | several times | 17:51 |
| ubuntu | hallo | 17:51 |
| ubuntu | i'm on the unofficial lubuntu 64, anything should I do to test? | 17:52 |
| Unit193 | KM0201: Just to make sure, what file did you edit? And you are using 10.10 or 11.04? | 17:53 |
| KM0201 | Unit193: 11.04, and /home/user/.config/openbox/lubuntu-rc.xml | 17:53 |
| KM0201 | brb | 17:54 |
| KM0201 | weird, i got it to work. | 17:55 |
| KM0201 | i had copied/pasted it from my laptops file, and it looked exactly the same | 17:55 |
| KM0201 | but.. i simply just "typed" it in, rather than copy/paste, and it worked. | 17:56 |
| KM0201 | go figure. | 17:56 |
| Unit193 | Laptop file > pastebin | 17:56 |
| KM0201 | Unit193: i'm not at at it now. | 17:56 |
| KM0201 | but it looks exactly like what i pastebinned earlier | 17:56 |
| KM0201 | to the letter | 17:56 |
| KM0201 | Unit193: thanks for your help, not sure what caused it.. only thing i did different, was type it in manually, rather than cut/paste, but it seems to be working now. | 17:59 |
| Unit193 | KM0201: I would like to see the one that works to tell what went wrong (Compare) | 18:00 |
| KM0201 | Unit193: it looks exactly the same... | 18:01 |
| KM0201 | i even counted the spaces from the margin. | 18:01 |
| budo | on the minimal installation the kernel wont install | 18:01 |
| Unit193 | KM0201: You could run a diff program on them (see what's changed) | 18:03 |
| KM0201 | Unit193: to late now, i didn't save the old one | 18:04 |
| KM0201 | i just retyped everything, logged out, logged in, and it worked | 18:04 |
| KM0201 | maybe a weird space in there or something (from the copy/paste) was causing an issue? | 18:04 |
| Unit193 | Well, would you mind pastebin? I have what *should* be the other one... | 18:05 |
| KM0201 | yeah, hang on | 18:05 |
| KM0201 | http://pastebin.com/SVix563q | 18:06 |
| KM0201 | thats just the relevant part | 18:07 |
| KM0201 | like i said, there had to be a hidden space, or somthing weird in there | 18:08 |
| KM0201 | cuz when i typed it manually, it worked fine | 18:08 |
| ubuntu | hey what up yo | 18:10 |
| ubuntu | these messages that say "don't show this message again" don't seem to work | 18:11 |
| ubuntu | y'all up on this? | 18:11 |
| KM0201 | Unit193: any ideas on what the prob was? | 18:12 |
| Unit193 | KM0201: There was no change.... (Might be in the Keybind key part) | 18:13 |
| KM0201 | hmm, maybe. | 18:13 |
| silverarrow | hi | 18:48 |
| ubuntu | hallo | 18:59 |
| bioterror | hi ubuntu | 19:12 |
| ubuntu | hello bioterror :) | 19:13 |
| bioterror | anything in mind? | 19:13 |
| ubuntu | I'm running the unofficial 64 bit lubuntu, just wondered if I should be running any tests or what not | 19:26 |
| bioterror | if it works, it's okay | 19:27 |

| Wulong | Can someone recommend a decent remote desktop serer like the one in Ubuntu? | 19:38 |
| Wulong | That should be server. | 19:39 |
| bioterror | szczur, would you say x11vnc? | 19:39 |
| bioterror | szczur, or you do prefer "tight" more? :D | 19:39 |
| szczur | i used x11vnc afair | 19:40 |
| Wulong | Is it virtual? I will need to be connected to the same desktop as the one running. | 19:41 |
| Wulong | Display :0.0 | 19:42 |
| bioterror | isnt that the idea of vnc | 19:42 |
| Unit193 | bioterror: That's not how tight server works... It makes it's own virtual server | 19:43 |
| Unit193 | Wulong: x11vnc will show you the current/running desktop | 19:44 |
| Wulong | Ok. Downloading, thanks. | 19:44 |
| bioterror | really | 19:44 |
| bioterror | x11vnc then | 19:44 |
| Wulong | Do Lubuntu automatically connect to my last saved/used WiFi network when using automatically login? | 19:47 |
| bioterror | Wulong, you have said to do so | 19:48 |
| Wulong | Are there any autorun scripts or folders where I can run x11vnc on X startup? | 19:57 |
| bioterror | yes | 19:58 |
| Wulong | Where? | 19:58 |
| bioterror | https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Lubuntu/Documentation/FAQ | 19:58 |
| Wulong | ok, thanks | 19:58 |
| bioterror | 3.4 | 19:58 |
| bioterror | budo, how's going now? | 20:00 |
| budo | anyone have any idea why a kernel will refuse to install on hard drive? | 20:00 |
| budo | hey | 20:00 |
| bioterror | budo, with mini.iso? | 20:00 |
| budo | itll download and install the packages but generate an error for kernal install | 20:01 |
| budo | yes | 20:01 |
| bioterror | hmmm | 20:01 |
| bioterror | not good | 20:01 |
| * bioterror tries to remember if there was possibility to choose another mirror | 20:01 | |
| budo | yes there is, tried that, same response | 20:02 |
| budo | hope my hard drive isnt defected | 20:03 |
| bioterror | mini.iso should be idiot proof | 20:05 |

| Karolek | I have one questin: Can I update my lubuntu to 11.04 when I have version 10.10?? | 20:13 |
| bioterror | yes | 20:14 |
| Wulong | Sure | 20:14 |
| Wulong | Run do-release-upgrade | 20:14 |
| bioterror | you can do it with update manager or from terminal with comman ^ | 20:14 |
| Karolek | Everything will be OK?? | 20:14 |
| bioterror | should be | 20:14 |
| Wulong | That is always the question :P | 20:14 |
| Karolek | OK thanks :) | 20:15 |
| bioterror | if n ot, i think we can think somekind of solutions | 20:15 |
| Wulong | As long as you don't have any exotic hardware. | 20:15 |
| Wulong | Like gma500 I'm struggling with. | 20:15 |
| Wulong | Maybe I should put lubuntu on my main computer. Is there anything like gnome-do available? | 20:23 |
| bioterror | gnome-do is a dock? | 20:23 |
| Wulong | No, it's a .... argh. Like katapult, if you know KDE. | 20:23 |
| bioterror | hmmm | 20:23 |
| Wulong | It executes program quickly. | 20:24 |
| Wulong | Simliar to what unity does today. | 20:24 |
| Wulong | You trigger the program, enter "fire" and it understand you want to open firefox and does it. | 20:24 |
| bioterror | "gnome do with the docky interface" | 20:24 |
| bioterror | I have gmrun | 20:25 |
| bioterror | I type chr and press tab :D | 20:25 |
| Wulong | I hit <menu>, type c and enter :D | 20:25 |
| Unit193 | I wonder how well dmenu works in Lubuntu | 20:25 |
| Wulong | gnome-do didn't have that docking crap before. | 20:25 |
| Wulong | Used it for a long time. | 20:25 |
| Wulong | Always disabling it. | 20:26 |
| bioterror | oh well, dock is here to stay | 20:26 |
| * bioterror is not going to judge as I still use wmaker every day ;) | 20:26 | |
| bioterror | but that's so OS X stuff | 20:27 |
| Wulong | I prefer screen relestate. | 20:27 |
| bioterror | Unit193, I've wondered that too | 20:27 |
| Wulong | I see gmrun is a little stupid. | 20:32 |
| Wulong | It suggest running CLI stuff in an desktop enviroment. | 20:33 |
| bioterror | how so | 20:33 |
| Wulong | Without even opening terminal for it. | 20:33 |
| Wulong | It should only check or atleast prioritate .desktop stuff. | 20:33 |
| Wulong | Maybe I can config it to do so. | 20:34 |
| Ahmuck-Sr | how do i tell what version of lubuntu i'm using? | 20:40 |
| Wulong | cat /etc/lsb-release | 20:41 |
| Ahmuck-Sr | looks like i'm at 10.4 how do i upgrade? | 20:42 |
| Wulong | do-release-upgrade | 20:42 |
| bioterror | lsb_release -rc | 20:42 |
| Ahmuck-Sr | sudo aptitude do-release-upgarde | 20:42 |

| slooksterpsv | hey all I have a quick question, is there a bug with the lxpanel's cause changing it to system theme doesn't make the panel's look like the chosen theme | 21:27 |
| slooksterpsv | ?? anyone? | 21:29 |
| gomiboy | works as expected here | 21:30 |
| Neosano | slooksterpsv, what version? | 21:31 |
| slooksterpsv | so if you change the system theme, and then select system theme for the appearance of lxpanel it works? hmmm I'm on 64-bit Lubuntu (installed Ubuntu 64-bit then used psychocats script to install lubuntu) and it doesn't what can I try - 11.04 64-bit | 21:31 |
| slooksterpsv | is anyone here running the 64-bit version via the torrent that was sent mentioned in the mailing list and it works? | 21:36 |
| gomiboy | slooksterpsv: try this: logout, ctrl+F1, login, mv .config/lxpanel .config/lxpanel.backup, ctrl+f7, login and change the setting | 21:37 |

| slooksterpsv | ahh I think I figured it out; well when I made this ISO I guess I not only had just LXDE installed, I guess I had tested KDE and Gnome, so I logged into LXDE instead of Default and it works... weird | 21:40 |
| slooksterpsv | alright I'll bb gonna grab the ISO off my other computer for the Lubuntu 64-bit torrent brb | 21:41 |
| ocj-001 | i'm on 10.04.2.x | 21:54 |
| ocj-001 | i was reading on upgrading, but it did not appear to work | 21:54 |
| ocj-001 | really though, i'm comfortable with the LTS release. is there a libre office option for 10.04.2 | 21:55 |
| bioterror | no | 21:55 |
| bioterror | unless ppa | 21:55 |
| bioterror | ocj-001, what did not work? | 21:55 |
| bioterror | did you get somekind of error message? | 21:55 |
| ocj-001 | k, guess i should upgrade then | 21:56 |
| ocj-001 | k, let me try again | 21:56 |
| bioterror | "sudo do-release-upgrade" | 21:56 |
| bioterror | and you will end up to 10.10 | 21:56 |
| bioterror | where you can upgrade again to 11.04 | 21:56 |
| ocj-001 | ocj-001@OCJ-001:~$ sudo do-release-upgrade | 21:58 |
| ocj-001 | Checking for a new ubuntu release | 21:58 |
| ocj-001 | No new release found | 21:58 |
| slooksterpsv | gomiboy, could I Just do rm .config/lxpanel and then pkill lxpanel ? | 21:59 |
| ocj-001 | lsb_release -a | 21:59 |
| ocj-001 | No LSB modules are available. | 21:59 |
| ocj-001 | Distributor ID:Ubuntu | 21:59 |
| ocj-001 | Description:Ubuntu 10.04.2 LTS | 21:59 |
| ocj-001 | Release:10.04 | 21:59 |
| ocj-001 | Codename:lucid | 21:59 |
| bioterror | hmm | 22:00 |
| bioterror | ocj-001, use -d flag? | 22:00 |
| bioterror | do-release-upgrade -d | 22:00 |
| KM0201 | ocj-001: are you trying to upgrade 10.04 to 10.10? | 22:01 |
| gomiboy | slooksterpsv: didn't you solved already? anyway, yes, should work that way too... | 22:01 |
| ocj-001 | that worked | 22:02 |
| ocj-001 | thx bioterror | 22:02 |
| bioterror | np | 22:02 |
| slooksterpsv | gomiboy, actually I have to rm the lxpanel directory in .config; set it to the system theme, change the system theme, then pkill lxpanel then lxpanel & just to get it to show correctly | 22:02 |
| slooksterpsv | oh wait now it's somewhat working... weird | 22:03 |
| slooksterpsv | either way we've figured out how to fix it | 22:04 |
| ocj-001 | KM0201: i'm really only trying to get libre office, and if that requires upgrading, i'll try | 22:05 |
| KM0201 | ocj-001: honestly, i see no reason to upgrade for libre office... that seems a bit like buying a new car because you'll get a free tank of gas | 22:06 |
| bioterror | ocj-001, https://launchpad.net/~libreoffice/+archive/ppa | 22:07 |
| KM0201 | ocj-001: i'm pretty sure there's a repository for 10.04 and libre office | 22:07 |
| KM0201 | ocj-001: thats the one i used for Maverick... i imagine it would work fine for lucid as well. | 22:07 |
| bioterror | but then again, if you're not using i586, I would recommend upgrading | 22:07 |
| ocj-001 | cept there is no buying part | 22:08 |
| ocj-001 | just the free tank of gas | 22:08 |
| ocj-001 | any way of stopping the upgrade? | 22:09 |
| ocj-001 | looks like there is a ppa | 22:09 |
| bioterror | ^C :D | 22:09 |
| ocj-001 | it warns you when starting the upgrade, don't interrupt | 22:09 |
| bioterror | yep | 22:10 |
| bioterror | is it now upgrading to natty or maverick? | 22:10 |
| budo | the minimal install doesnt like my computer | 22:13 |
| bioterror | budo, what's the issue now? | 22:13 |
| ocj-001 | now i need to downgrade | 22:14 |
| budo | itll complete the install n everything, once it reboots for the new system to load it just hangs there | 22:14 |
| ocj-001 | to maverick | 22:14 |
| bioterror | ocj-001, what+ | 22:14 |
| ocj-001 | i cancelled the instal as it was only in the download part | 22:14 |
| bioterror | yes | 22:14 |
| bioterror | sudo apt-get clean | 22:14 |
| bioterror | and edit your apt sources | 22:14 |
| ocj-001 | i need to downgrade my source.list to 10.04.2 | 22:14 |
| ocj-001 | sudo apt-get clean | 22:15 |
| ocj-001 | sorry | 22:15 |
| KM0201 | ocj-001: still doesn't make sense to jut upgrade for a free office program, that is easy to install on 10.04... (if the office program is your only reason to upgrade)... | 22:23 |
| KM0201 | that was my point.. | 22:23 |
| bioterror | rather funny that lts didnt have libreoffice in the repos by default | 22:24 |
| KM0201 | bioterror: i dont think libre office was stable when 10.04 came out.. thus why it wasn't put in lts. | 22:25 |
| bioterror | oh well, they could add it to repos | 22:25 |
| bioterror | but in the end it doesnt matter | 22:25 |
| KM0201 | they could, but its something to do w/ how the repos on LTS is handled.. | 22:26 |
| bioterror | oh well, good night folks | 22:30 |
| Unit193 | bioterror: Have a good one! | 22:31 |
