| novodinia | Is there battery monitor software that comes with Lubuntu? | 00:03 |
|---|---|---|
| novodinia | Maybe I should restart X, brb. | 00:09 |
| novodinia | The problem is that there is a black box where the gnome-power-manager system tray app should be, it's a black box with a red cicle crossed out. | 00:11 |
| novodinia | If you right click on it, you get a small gray line, where there should be options, there are none, just a gray line. | 00:11 |
| novodinia | left or right clicking | 00:12 |
| novodinia | My kernel doesn't have apm built-in | 00:12 |
| novodinia | I would rebuild the kernel, but then it wouldn't be kubuntu. | 00:13 |
| novodinia | s/kubuntu/lubuntu | 00:13 |
| novodinia | I need some way of monitoring my battery and I need some way to specify that guake should be started after logging in. | 00:13 |

| deckstar | Has anyone else found 11.04 slower than 10.10? | 03:10 |
| deckstar | It's noticeably slower for my P4, 1.4GHz, Especially Update Manager | 03:11 |
| KM0201 | deckstar: naa, it screams on my laptop | 03:47 |
| Unit193 | deckstar: If you're ok with bleeding edge software and that's not your only computer, I may know something that might help | 03:49 |
| jmarsden | deckstar: Have you run any benchmarks on each OS and compared them, so we have objective numbers to work with? Does your system seem to be bottlenecks by CPU speed, RAM, disk access speed, network access speed, or some other factor? | 03:57 |
| freedomlives | I would need some quick help if anyone can fill me in: How to I access the grub menu on starting up a computer with Lubuntu? | 07:37 |
| freedomlives | I read to hold down <SHIFT> and when I do that I see the word "Grub" but then the booting continues | 07:37 |
| freedomlives | I'm doing my tests of this on VMware, but need to know to guide my mother whose computer has been getting a kernel panic from the wrong root device being passed | 07:40 |
| Unit193 | Normally shift will do it. Try hitting Esc when you see Grub | 07:43 |
| freedomlives | ok, in fact it seems that I wasn't holding down shift for long enough-- apparently it must be held down from the start of boot until the menu appears | 07:47 |
| freedomlives | thanks anyway | 07:47 |
| freedomlives | hopefully I can walk my mother through editing group command lines over the phone :-/ | 07:47 |
| Unit193 | Good luck man... Maybe edit the /etc/defaults/grub ? | 07:51 |
| poltak | how do you configure daemons in *buntu? Is there an equivilent to /etc/rc.conf? | 07:56 |
| freedomlives | Thanks-- I use Gentoo on my computers so the lubuntu config is a bit of something new for me | 07:57 |
| jmarsden | poltak: See the files in /etc/init.d/ and man update-rc.d for info on managing links to them | 07:59 |
| Unit193 | sysv-rc-conf Might be something to look at (Don't know how well it works with Lubuntu) | 08:00 |
| jmarsden | Unit193: I have a suspicion that only works for daemons that have not yet converted to the new upstart stuff? So it is fine in 10.04, but may not be so great in 11.04. That's a guess, I have not actually tried in in 11.04 :) | 08:02 |
| poltak | Thanks, playa | 08:02 |
| leszek | hi | 10:28 |

| silverarrow | hi | 13:05 |
| Daxwax | nothing like trying to get alsa to work on an old laptop :/ | 13:25 |
| ActionParsnip | hey guys | 15:58 |
| ActionParsnip | is it possible to replace lxpanel with unity-2d-panel in the config ? | 15:59 |
| stlsaint | not sure | 16:00 |
| ActionParsnip | just hunting the config | 16:03 |
| ActionParsnip | found an easy hack, just kill lxpanel ;) | 16:25 |
| stlsaint | cool | 16:25 |
| ActionParsnip | just made a 2D unity desktop using Lubuntu, not bad | 16:27 |
| stlsaint | screenshot?? | 16:27 |
| ActionParsnip | sure, gimme a sec | 16:28 |
| ActionParsnip | btw, apt-fast is awesome, i thoroughly reccomend | 16:29 |
| JoeMaverickSett | pacman is fast as well. =P | 16:30 |
| JoeMaverickSett | and I'd like too see that screenshot as well. :) | 16:30 |
| JoeMaverickSett | howdy stlsaint! :) | 16:30 |
| stlsaint | JoeMaverickSett: sup sup | 16:31 |
| JoeMaverickSett | stlsaint: looking at people chatting. ;D | 16:31 |
| ActionParsnip | https://dl-web.dropbox.com/get/Public/desk.png?w=3fa7bfa8 | 16:32 |
| ActionParsnip | does that work? | 16:32 |
| stlsaint | boooooooo dropbox | 16:32 |
| ActionParsnip | dropbox rules! | 16:32 |
| stlsaint | ActionParsnip: nope cant see it | 16:32 |
| ActionParsnip | gah | 16:32 |
| ActionParsnip | ok i'll image shack | 16:32 |
| stlsaint | i dont use dropbox and its not as secure as it has told folks it is | 16:32 |
| phillw | 403, permission denuied | 16:33 |
| JoeMaverickSett | boo to dropbox this time. =/ | 16:33 |
| ActionParsnip | http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/402/deskzv.png/ | 16:34 |
| ActionParsnip | stlsaint: i use it to hold my scripts and configs, no passwords or anything :) | 16:34 |
| stlsaint | ActionParsnip: ah, in that case it may be good but i know folks who keep their lives in dropbox and it drives me crazy | 16:35 |
| stlsaint | ActionParsnip: nice setup btw (though im not a unity fan) | 16:35 |
| ActionParsnip | oh no,i have a fileserver for that | 16:35 |
| JoeMaverickSett | unity is kinda nice, but it doesn't like my laptop, but it likes older laptops like my sister's =/ | 16:36 |
| ActionParsnip | stlsaint: restore configs, restore data and fileserver is up in minutes | 16:36 |
| stlsaint | ActionParsnip: what was the process needed to get unity in place of lxpanel | 16:38 |
| deckstar | ActionParsnip: Very Nice | 16:39 |
| ActionParsnip | stlsaint: you need to install unity2d and run unity-2d-launcher and unity-2d-panel then kill lxpanel off | 16:39 |
| stlsaint | ActionParsnip: ah, simple enough | 16:40 |
| ActionParsnip | stlsaint: usually is in linux ;) | 16:40 |
| stlsaint | ActionParsnip: oh so true | 16:41 |
| bioterror | why half of the top bar is different colour? | 16:41 |
| stlsaint | bioterror: i too wondered that, figured it was something with unity | 16:42 |
| ActionParsnip | bioterror: need to find an openbox theme to match | 16:43 |
| leszek | its the gtk theme that needs to be set to unity I guess | 16:45 |
| leszek | or ambiance | 16:46 |
| leszek | or radiance or how they call it xD | 16:46 |
| bioterror | openbox doesnt have top bars | 16:46 |
| leszek | openbox does not have a panel at all xD | 16:46 |
| ActionParsnip | leszek: hmm, yeah the grey box around the top right stuff needs tweaking | 16:48 |
| ActionParsnip | leszek: can you advise at all? | 16:51 |
| bioterror | ps. I like how you have stl as pink :D | 16:53 |
| bioterror | OH NO!, I AM TOO! | 16:53 |
| deckstar | is that empathy being used for IRC? | 16:54 |
| ActionParsnip | deckstar: pidgin | 16:54 |
| deckstar | ActionParsnip: tx | 16:54 |
| Tatsujin | What's a magical terminal command that will scan the whole system and give me all the information of what sound drivers it's using. | 17:22 |
| Tatsujin | I wanna find out what ubuntu is using that lubuntu isn't using , cause ubuntu has sound but lubuntu doesn't. | 17:22 |
| Daxwax | lsmod perhaps? | 17:24 |
| Tatsujin | http://pastebin.com/ZQXarura | 17:26 |
| Tatsujin | those realtek drivers aren't in synaptics and they automatically come with ubuntu | 17:26 |
| Tatsujin | you have to compile them manually for lubuntu it seems | 17:27 |
| Tatsujin | but i could never get them to compile successfully under lubuntu | 17:27 |
| Tatsujin | are realtek stopping synaptics from adding them to the database or something? | 17:27 |
| Daxwax | no idea, not really that knowledgeable about linux ^^ | 17:30 |
| === gpc is now known as IdleOne | ||
| Daxwax | Alright, I've tried to fix the sound on this laptop myself for a few days now. If anyone could take a look at this pastebin and give me some pointers, I'd be grateful | 19:25 |
| Daxwax | http://pastebin.com/ciC02wXF | 19:25 |
| stlsaint | Daxwax: sorry not able to help | 19:35 |
| Daxwax | ah well =) thanks for trying | 19:36 |
| Daxwax | could be that the hardware isnt supported | 19:36 |
| silverarrow | does anyone use xChat? | 19:39 |
| silverarrow | ever? | 19:39 |
| silverarrow | I have trouble connecting to any server that isn't on the default list | 19:40 |
| bioterror | use irssi ;) | 19:40 |
| silverarrow | it's better than xchat? | 19:40 |
| * silverarrow looking irssi up on package manger... | 19:41 | |
| Tatsujin | not recommended if you're in a shitload of channels | 19:41 |
| Tatsujin | but if you're in just 5 or so then it does the job. | 19:41 |
| bioterror | what? | 19:41 |
| silverarrow | no shitloads smell to much, just one or three | 19:41 |
| silverarrow | channels I mena | 19:42 |
| Tatsujin | if you're in like 30/50 channels then irssi is somewhat unpractical imho. | 19:42 |
| silverarrow | mean | 19:42 |
| Tatsujin | it's a taste thing also i guess:) | 19:42 |
| Unit193 | bioterror: You're a weechat fan... | 19:42 |
| bioterror | Unit193, only becouse of wtf-8 | 19:42 |
| Unit193 | Tatsujin: irssi is great for multi channels | 19:42 |
| silverarrow | is there any reason why xchat is acting up? | 19:42 |
| Unit193 | Tatsujin: I know one person that has 107+ | 19:42 |
| Tatsujin | you can't use the mouse to switch channels, it must get really messy if he checks all those channels 24/7:) | 19:43 |
| silverarrow | hey, for me multi channels are like 3-or 4 maximum | 19:43 |
| bioterror | Tatsujin, meta+a | 19:43 |
| Tatsujin | yeah still too slow for my taste , nothing beats being able to rapidly click with the mouse | 19:44 |
| bioterror | :D | 19:44 |
| Tatsujin | but i know that alot of people love irssi so i won't start a war:) | 19:44 |
| Tatsujin | weechat is the middlepoint | 19:44 |
| bioterror | weechat > * | 19:47 |
| Tatsujin | wget http://www.splitted-desktop.com/~gbeauchesne/mplayer-vaapi/mplayer-vaapi-latest-FULL.tar.bz2 | 19:47 |
| Tatsujin | sudo apt-get build-dep mplayer | 19:47 |
| Tatsujin | tar -xpvf mplayer-vaapi-latest-FULL.tar.bz2 | 19:47 |
| Tatsujin | cd mplayer-vaapi-20100713/ | 19:47 |
| Tatsujin | ./checkout-patch-build.sh | 19:47 |
| Tatsujin | cd mplayer-vaapi | 19:47 |
| bioterror | only thing that sucks in weechat is ban modes | 19:47 |
| Tatsujin | sudo make install | 19:47 |
| Tatsujin | trying to install this but i get this error: "Makefile:22: config.mak: No such file or directory make: *** osdep/: Is a directory." anyone know whats wrong? google gives no clues. | 19:47 |
| Tatsujin | ok , i haven't used weechat alot but it seems to be where xchat and irssi meet. | 19:47 |
| silverarrow | I'm not that used to irc, I use either xchat or chatzilla | 19:50 |
| silverarrow | usually | 19:50 |
| stlsaint | irssi FTW!! | 19:50 |
| ActionParsnip | pidgin here :) | 19:50 |
| silverarrow | ok, ok, ok | 19:50 |
| Unit193 | ActionParsnip: I like pidgin for the sounds (Sometimes I use pidgin with irssi's proxy) | 19:51 |
| ActionParsnip | mines a 10 year habit | 19:52 |
| bioterror | ircII EPIC is best ;) | 19:52 |
| ActionParsnip | Tatsujin: is there no ppa? | 19:52 |
| bioterror | but it doesnt support utf-8 | 19:52 |
| Tatsujin | nope , trying to get http://forum.xbmc.org/showpost.php?p=773553&postcount=1 working | 19:53 |
| Tatsujin | but the world is against me | 19:53 |
| ActionParsnip | Tatsujin: https://launchpad.net/~motumedia/+archive/mplayer-daily ? | 19:53 |
| stlsaint | ActionParsnip: BBOOOOOOO pidgin | 19:53 |
| bioterror | pidgin is for chatting with chicks! | 19:54 |
| ActionParsnip | stlsaint: i've been using it longer than most users have used (or even heard) of linux ;) | 19:54 |
| bioterror | ActionParsnip, sorry, I used GAIM back int he days ;) | 19:54 |
| stlsaint | ActionParsnip: ha, i can dig ya on that one | 19:54 |
| ActionParsnip | bioterror: same, it rocked :) | 19:54 |
| bioterror | pidgin == gaim | 19:55 |
| ActionParsnip | Tatsujin: does the ppa not give what you need? | 19:55 |
| * Unit193 remembers using gaim... | 19:55 | |
| ActionParsnip | i love apt-fast | 19:57 |
| Tatsujin | action nope it has to be compiled with vaapi | 19:59 |
| ActionParsnip | Tatsujin: is that good? | 19:59 |
| leszek | re | 19:59 |
| Tatsujin | vaapi is very good , yes :). | 19:59 |
| Tatsujin | required to make 1080p to roll on some motherboards. | 20:00 |
