mr2webI got a question regarding the chipset architecture when installing lubuntu, is it possible to get it to install a i486 architecture instead of a i586 architecture on a system that has a chipset that is a i586?08:23
bioterror?08:23
poltaknup08:25
bioterror10.04 supports i58608:26
bioterrorfor the 10.10 ubuntu dropped moved completely to i68608:26
mr2websry m8, maybe I completely of base here, but as I have read online one will get better performance out of the chipset I have if the opsys is installed with a i486 architecture thatn i586. this is a quote of the online source: "While i586-pc-linux-gnu CHOST works fine on a Geode LX, i486-pc-linux-gnu should be a more performant choice right now due to the way Geode LX CPU pipeline and scheduling works. glibc i586 assembler optimized 08:26
bioterrormr2web, if you want i486 packages, try Salix OS08:27
bioterrorit's a fork of Zenwalk and that community is great08:27
bioterrorit's based on slackware and apt-get is slapt-get08:27
bioterrorthey have Fluxbox, LXDE, XFCE versions08:27
mr2webthx, I'll have a look. Although I do like the lubuntu and would like to stay with that dist...08:28
poltakYep, see ya later mr2web08:28
mr2webcheers08:28
bioterrormr2web, could you give me that url08:28
bioterrorfor that that08:28

bioterrorhaha08:28
bioterrormr2web, I give you another: http://funroll-loops.info/08:29
mr2webI have upgraded my current lubuntu to 11.04 before I read that the i586 support had been dropped..08:29
mr2webit starts fine but xorg is behaving realy bad and takes loads of cpu time08:30
mr2webI was running 10.10 before... and that one didnt either support the i586 architecture though the performance wasn't to bad...08:31
mr2webI have now downloaded the 10.04 and will try that one i guess08:31
bioterrorwhy not08:32
bioterrorit is supported for the next... 4 years? :)08:32
bioterroror was it 3 years08:32
mr2webbioterror, u know I'm not after super speed at all just a smooth server with a GUI and my new secondhand "green" HW is really slow in operating though it should be quicker, not super sonic just not so laggy... ;-)08:37
mr2webI'm replacing my old Fedora 10 core machine using in average 80-120W, the new fit-pc slim uses only 6W witch is a difference for a 24/7 server08:39
KM0201where is .xinitrc stored?  ls doesn't turn it up... so i'm assumign its not there, if i was going to create it, where would it go?09:21
bioterror~/09:21
KM0201ty09:23
bioterrordid you get ir working?09:28
bioterrorit09:28
KM0201i got .xinitrc created, and i added the line this says to put in it, but no, it didn't work.09:28
KM0201that doesn't have to be made executable does it?.. i wouldn't think so.09:29
bioterrorstartx or xinit uses .xinitrc09:30
bioterrorno, rc files are never executables09:30
bioterrorthose are just configuration files09:30
KM0201ok09:31
KM0201maybe i'm missing something, the instructions i'm reading (command line)... https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Config/DontZap09:31
KM0201the "enable immediately" command, works fine... but when i create .xinitrc and put that line in it, it does nothing, and the shortcut isn't saved after i restart09:32
bioterrorwhat are you after now?09:32
bioterroryou want to kill X with ctrl+alt+backspace?09:32
KM0201i can't stand alt prtsc k to kill x.. i've been using ctrl alt backspace forever, and i'm trying to get that working09:32

bioterrorModris, try to use less instead of more20:14
Unit193Modris: sudo updatedb && locate {filetofind} is great too20:14
MrChrisDruifLook where?20:15

MrChrisDruifbioterror; ?20:15
b0ot_Does lubuntu have something like the software manger gui in ubuntu where you can just click and add programs20:21
bioterrorsynaptic20:22
b0ot_where is synamptic20:22
Modrisstart - system tools - synaptic package manager20:22
b0ot_hmm not there on mine20:23
Modrissudo synaptic from terminal20:23
Modris"sudo synaptic" from terminal20:23
MrChrisDruifModris; No!20:24
MrChrisDruifgksudo synaptic20:24
MrChrisDruifYou want to start a graphical application, so you'd have to use gksudo20:24
Modrisok, what is difference, ok understand20:24
b0ot_nothing20:25
bioterror& after and it will be launched to background20:25
MrChrisDruifModris; https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo#Graphical%20sudo20:25
MrChrisDruifA good read btw ;)20:25
Unit193MrChrisDruif: +120:26
Modrisok, i go to read, but in first look, for me work sudo synaptic too... ok, close my spam i go and read link20:26
MrChrisDruifModris; gksudo sets HOME=~root, and copies .Xauthority to a tmp directory. This prevents files in your home directory becoming owned by Root.20:28
Modrisyes for now i read this, but ... i'm not sure that i understand this.20:29
Modriswhat is .xauthority20:29
bioterrorModris, been over 30mins now?20:31
MrChrisDruifI don't know, but what is said behind is the important part. It prevents files in your home dir becoming owned by root20:31
Modrisok, then - if i already start synaptic or other gui with sudo then i need go to my home and delete some files with root owner, is this correct?20:31
MrChrisDruifIt's just safer to start graphical apps with gksudo, keep it to that :)20:32
ModrisYES, it can work, nice. only i need read for what this nomodeset is20:33
Modrisand about gksudo - understand, thank20:33
Modrisbut why boot dont find synaptic with mouse and graphic environmen?20:34
Modrisbut why b0ot_ dont find synaptic with mouse and graphic environmen?20:34
Unit193"ls -l |grep root" will show you what files are root owned20:34
bioterrorModris, kernel mode setting20:35
bioterrorgoogle that20:35
Modrisok, i do it tomorow, for today already big information ;)20:35
Modristo Unit193 i start synaptic with sudo, then with gksudo, then i run ls -l in my /home/modris and no-one file is for root...20:37
Unit193"ls -lR |grep root" does it for me...20:37
Modrisls -lR  was found nothing ls -latR found on20:38
Modrisls -lR  was found nothing ls -latR found one20:38
Modrisls -lR |grep root  was found nothing ls -latR |grep root  found one and that was directory20:39
Unit193Modris: The more you use it, the more likely you will have issues20:39
Modrisok, let it go.. just from no i try use gksudo20:40
Modrisfor gui20:40
Unit193Yeah... I just did it in my /home, and I guess I ran a few things wrong... :(20:41
ModrisWe all falling down ;-)20:43
Modrissome year i watch film and there was this or similar sentece "we all fall down", i cant find it in imdb.com for now and dont remeber about what this movie was.20:44

Unit193Modris: Sure!20:54
Psilocybin_ElfIs there any way to install LXDE on Xubuntu 8.10 even thou the repos are obsolete? Don't want to upgrade by box yet, but still want LXDE instead of XFCE.21:04
Modrisok, dont get freeze like before, for now ir try play with chrome http://www.radioswh.lv/pluslive_m.asx and after 10 sec (start advertisment) i got hang-up. ctrl+alt+backspace dont work, i can change alt+ctrl + 1 to other tty and made reisub with success.21:15
ModrisAND... (but possible it is from beer) i can;t log in. it is started when in hang-up (write some minutes before) when i try log on in other tty21:19
Modrismaybe this is enaught for tonight ;-)21:20
bioterrorPsilocybin_Elf, nope21:22
Modrisi dont cache21:24
Modrisand my password was changed, why...21:24
Modrisfor now i dont believe it, and hope tomorow all this was just a one beer :-O drinking people problem21:25
bioterrorPsilocybin_Elf, maybe you should slowly come to this decade21:26
Modrismy language dont allow me what is psilocybin_elf, possible i dont newer cache that21:28
Modrismy language dont allow me understand what is psilocybin_elf, possible i dont newer cache that21:28
Unit193It would depend on his specs21:29
Modrisi could'n get in my lubuntu, but ask Q about other problem. in what direction looking for solution that when i try open  http://www.radioswh.lv/pluslive_m.asx (this ir link for online radio)  hang-up my graphical lubuntu? this is chrome or some plugin dependecies? or maybe somethin else21:33
Modrisi change my password with recovery mode - i supprise this mechanism, it so simple in lubuntu, It is easer than with windows (where need some other boot media) ... scarry. From now i start thinking about boot password in bios, for laptop it can help if dont just lose it forewer.21:51
ModrisQ how to solve  chrome: "the following plug-in has crashed: windows media player plug-in"? link with solution would be ok.21:57
Unit193Modris: Re: Password. net user administrator {PASSWORD} in windows... And IIRC, you can only change the pwd via recovery if you login22:00
Modristo Unit193 - i think you miss me. I change OS user password throug recovery mode http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/resetpassword not irc22:02
Unit193Modris: I understand, I'm just saying, didn't you have to login to the recovery console?22:04
Modrishmm.. 1) i hang-up computer with chrome chrash, 2) after ALT+CTRL+1 i change ... dont know how it name 3) cant get authorize myself 4) alt+sys+reisub 5) after reboot can;t login  shock, big shock. 6) search net for password recover, find http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/resetpassword and did it22:07
Modrisnow i'm back in normal  and try find solution 1) why my chrome chrash on http://www.radioswh.lv/pluslive_m.asx 2) how it happen that my password changed from chrash (for now it not very importat, only strange)22:09
Modrismorning smarter than evening... good night22:12
Unit193Good night?22:14
adam61hi, i'm using these instructions: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/TASCAM_US-122  to help me set up my tascam us122; it worked for ubuntu 11.04, but now i'm trying to set it up for Lubuntu, and it is stuck at step 6 because there is no usb folder in /proc/bus/. does anyone know how i could fix this?22:22

Unit193adam61: I don't happen to know. I'll look into it and you might also want to wait for someone too22:25
adam61Unit193: ok that'd be great, thanks. i've been trying to get an answer for a long time on #ubuntu22:26
Unit193adam61: Did you check /dev/bus/usb?22:26
adam61Unit193: not yet, but that sounds like a good idea, i'll try it out, thanks. do you know how to access this channel from Lubuntu? it wasn't there when i checked22:29
Unit193adam61: Xchat22:30
adam61Unit193: ya, that's what i tried, but there was no one in the room and instead of around 1700 ppl in #ubuntu there was only 8 people22:31
adam61i think i have to download a package first or something. i'll just ask the ppl on the debian channel when i get there. k i'll do that then be back shortly22:31
Unit193adam61: You have to be in Freenode!22:31
adam61Unit193: ah ok, how do i do that if it's logging me into debian? i presume there'll be an option to switch?22:32
Unit193Let me check (I don't use X-Chat)22:33
adam61k cool thanks22:33
Unit193When you first open it, it should give you a server/network list22:33
adam61ok that sounds about right, i've only tried it once so far, i'll give it another try. thanks!22:34
adam61anyone know how to get tascam us122 recognized? i'm following these instructions https://help.ubuntu.com/community/TASCAM_US-122  but it can't find a folder usb in /proc/bus/. i tried /dev/bus/ and /sys/bus/ but those didn't work22:50
Unit193Did you try /dev/bus/usb/002/003 ?22:54
adam61LAcan, are you around? you've helped me out before22:54
adam61Unit193, ya thanks i just tried that, no luck22:54
Unit193Can you ls /dev/bus ? (or ls /dev/bus -R )22:56
adam61k just a sec22:56
adam61Unit193, here's the output: http://pastebin.com/ZNPBbs2b22:58
Unit193adam61: Thanks! now can you pastebin lsusb?22:59
adam61k: http://pastebin.com/8wVtqrjX23:00
adam61it's giving me a new error now: "EOF without EOF record!" do you know what that means?23:01
Unit193/dev/bus/usb/002/006 is the device23:01
adam61ya i know about that23:02
adam61do you know what i should be putting for step 6 here : https://help.ubuntu.com/community/TASCAM_US-12223:03
adam61i have this: sudo fxload -s /usr/share/alsa/firmware -I /usr/share/alsa/firmware/usx2yloader/us122fw.ihx -D /dev/bus/usb/002/00623:03
Unit193Where is ld2-ezusb.hex?23:04
adam61it's here i think: /home/adam/alsa-firmware-1.0.23/usx2yloader (it's actually tascam_loader.ihx, the equivalent of ld2-ezusb.hex)23:06
Unit193AH!23:07
Unit193http://paste.ubuntu.com/610845/23:08
MrChrisDruifFailer help to the rescue, what is going on? :)23:11
Unit193He is trying to install https://help.ubuntu.com/community/TASCAM_US-122 (on /dev/bus/usb/002/006 . http://paste.ubuntu.com/610845/ <--- look right??)23:12
adam61Unit193, i replaced it with sudo fxload -s /home/adam/alsa-firmware-1.0.23/usx2yloader -I /usr/share/alsa/firmware/usx2yloader/us122fw.ihx -D /dev/bus/usb/002/006... and it said no such file or directory23:14
adam61it seems file manager and lsusb are giving conflicting information if i'm understanding it right. lsusb says it's on 002/006, but file manager shows the 006 file only in dev/bus/usb/001 not 00223:15
Unit193The output of ls says it's there... Do you know where the .hex file is? You need to point to it...23:19
MrChrisDruifadam61; Did follow all the steps from the help.ubuntu.com page?23:19
Unit193Is it here?: /home/adam/alsa-firmware-1.0.23/usx2yloader/ld2-ezusb.hex23:20
adam61Unit193: MrChrisDruif: got it!!!!!!!! thanks so much for your help!!!23:25
Unit193adam61: Sure, what fixed it?23:26
MrChrisDruifadam61; what was the problem?23:26
adam61i think when i first got the EOF error message, i assumed it hadn't worked, but it had. i tested out sudo usx2yloader, and it worked!23:26
adam61MrChrisDruif: not sure exactly what the problem was, i think it was just trying to load the wrong file or something23:27
MrChrisDruifAlright :)23:27
adam61Unit193, thanks again very much for all your help!23:28
adam61thanks MrChris23:28
adam61ttyl23:28
MrChrisDruifYour welcome :)23:28
Unit193Have a great day!23:28
Unit193...23:28
MrChrisDruifI'll have a good night if you don't mind ;)23:29
Unit193See ya!23:29
MrChrisDruifSleep well...in about 6 hours ;)23:30
