| rabc | is best place to get latest lubuntu on http://lubuntu.net/ and download the iso? | 12:58 |
| elros | that's the best way | 13:00 |
| elros | the fastest way, if you already have ubuntu, is to install lubuntu-desktop | 13:01 |
| elros | or just lubuntu-core and install whatever apps you like on top of that | 13:01 |
| rabc | thanks elros ive got a P4 2.8Ghz by the way and was finding ubuntu bit slow also tried xubuntu and that was bit slow so hoping for better with lubuntu | 13:10 |
| rabc | ive downloaded the latest iso can i install lubuntu-core from that or do i need another iso | 13:11 |
| === rabc is now known as draioch | ||
| elros | draioch: you can install lubuntu from a CD or just install lubuntu-desktop package | 13:18 |
| elros | if you don't want the default apps from lubuntu-desktop, install just lubuntu-core and the apps you want | 13:18 |
| draioch | thanks elros so there is an option on the latest iso when booted for lubuntu core | 13:21 |
| bioterror | elros, Unit193 had some sort of problems get into X with core :o | 13:26 |
| bioterror | but when he installed desktop, everything worked flawlessly | 13:27 |
| phillw | || Lubuntu 11.04 is available via https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Lubuntu/GetLubuntu (please use the torrent feed). || | 13:34 |
| elros | ok | 13:35 |
| elros | maybe it needs also xorg and a login manager | 13:35 |
| elros | lubuntu-desktop has lxdm as dependency, lubuntu-core has only xorg | 13:40 |
| pmatulis | on standard ubuntu i'm used to lock my screen with Alt-F2 (thinkpad T60). no effect on lubuntu. tips? | 16:07 |
| Unit193 | bioterror: You could still get the desktop if you go to TTY1 and start X then go to TTY2 and startlubuntu | 16:34 |
| bioterror | Unit193, sure you could | 16:56 |
| AmberJ | Hello | 17:54 |
| AmberJ | phillw-virtual, ping | 17:54 |
| Neosano | uh, somehow whenever I ask any application to open a folder it is opened by firefox, not by file manager, why? | 20:24 |
| Neosano | and I would be happy if someone helped me to set up dual monitors, because in 11.04 it is no longer working | 20:32 |
| phillw-virtual | Neosano: sorry, I do not have access to a dual monitor. I am puzzled as to why it is not working in 11.04 | 20:37 |
| pmatulis | Neosano: i have dual monitors set up but i have a dead zone on my laptop screen | 20:38 |
| pmatulis | Neosano: did you tray arandr? | 20:38 |
| pmatulis | *try | 20:39 |
| Neosano | yeah, it failed | 20:39 |
| Neosano | in 10.10 I had an autostart script which did everything for me | 20:40 |
| Neosano | xrandr --output VGA-0 --mode 1600x900 --right-of DVI-0 --primary | 20:40 |
| Neosano | xrandr --output DVI-0 --mode 1440x900 --left-of VGA-0 | 20:40 |
| pmatulis | Neosano: note i did say arandr | 20:40 |
| Neosano | simple, yeh... now it works, but it makes everything crash every time I do something usual.. | 20:40 |
| Neosano | yeah, I heard | 20:40 |
| pmatulis | k | 20:40 |
| Neosano | it simply doesn't work as far as I remember | 20:40 |
| Neosano | would you like to see arandr screenshot? :) | 20:42 |
| Neosano | http://img717.imageshack.us/img717/6451/201106222245102056x1236.png | 20:47 |
| Neosano | here it is | 20:47 |
| Neosano | it simply does not allow me to place them side by side | 20:47 |
| Neosano | + left monitor is black | 20:47 |
| Neosano | left monitor was connected after the boot, should I restart with it? | 20:48 |
| Neosano | kk.. reboot | 20:50 |
| === alex__ is now known as Neosano2 | ||
| Neosano2 | alright, now it is hilarious :D | 20:52 |
| Neosano2 | I can't drag it to the right GODDDAMNIT!!!! | 20:55 |
| Neosano2 | ... | 20:55 |
| Neosano2 | http://img109.imageshack.us/img109/5751/201106222253291600x900s.png | 20:55 |
| Neosano2 | after reboot | 20:55 |
| Neosano2 | pmatulis, any ideas? | 20:56 |
| Neosano2 | second monitor works now, but in clone mode (shows only a part of another screen) | 20:57 |
| elros | I'm in da picture, I'm famous | 21:03 |
| Neosano2 | xrandr --fb 3040x900 | 21:05 |
| Neosano2 | ^^^ this seems to fix it o.o | 21:05 |
| Neosano2 | lets see if it will crash.. | 21:05 |
| Neosano2 | whoa, IT WORKS!! | 21:05 |
| Neosano2 | or not.. hmm | 21:06 |
| Neosano2 | yeah!! | 21:06 |
| Neosano2 | okay, now how can I make it stay still after the reboot? | 21:07 |
| elros | is this a question? | 21:07 |
| Neosano2 | yeah... | 21:07 |
| Neosano2 | well I'm talking to myself.. | 21:08 |
| elros | it's OK, I do it IRL | 21:08 |
| Neosano2 | I'll try to reboot now.. | 21:10 |
| Neosano | haha, reboot gave me two blank monitors | 21:18 |
| Neosano | was fighting it in the console.. | 21:19 |
| rabc | hi whats the easiest way to install lubuntu-core and reformat the hard drive (xubuntu already installed) thx | 21:19 |
| rabc | ive download http://packages.ubuntu.com/maverick/i386/lubuntu-core/download but how do i installed and reformat the hard drive | 21:22 |
| rabc | ive also booted with lubuntu-11.04.iso and a command promt came up (dont know what to do with this) | 21:23 |
| rabc | can i reformat the drive using command promt then reboot with a lubuntu-core cd | 21:24 |
| rabc | which is best easiest option for noob pls thx | 21:25 |
| Phosphenes | Do you already have ubuntu or some variant of it installed? | 21:29 |
| Phosphenes | You could just do a sudo apt-get install lubuntu-desktop and switch to that at the log in screen | 21:29 |
| === markus__1 is now known as elros | ||
| rabc | yea thanks phosphenes xubuntu is already installed but does the sudo command wipe out existing installations i have 2 versions of xubuntu running as dual boot option so maybe have to reformat as well? | 21:32 |
| Phosphenes | It won't remove anything, it will replace your log in screen but if you don't like it you can just sudo apt-get remove it and go back to xubuntu | 21:34 |
| bioterror | rabc, http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/purelxde | 21:34 |
| Phosphenes | It installs them side by side so you can have multiple desktops at once. I've currently got Kubuntu and Lubuntu installed and I just switch between them at log in | 21:34 |
| rabc | thx phosphenes its quite an old pc im using P4 2.8 GHz 486 ram would that make any diff | 21:35 |
| rabc | thanks for the link bioterror ill check that out | 21:35 |
| Phosphenes | Lubuntu is made for better performance on older PCs so it should work fine | 21:36 |
| Phosphenes | I think the minimum system requirements are 256mb of RAM and a 1ghz processor, or something like that. | 21:37 |
| rabc | aye thx but would i not be better reformatting first ive got 2 versions of xubuntu as dual boot and want rid of them just want lubuntu | 21:37 |
| Phosphenes | Go to the link pasted by Bioterror then and use the command listed under remove xubuntu | 21:38 |
| Phosphenes | That will completely get rid of it and install lubuntu on top | 21:38 |
| rabc | ok thx so reformat not good option thx? | 21:38 |
| Phosphenes | Not unless you really need to for some reason. It's easier to just do it this way | 21:39 |
| Heinz_L_Maennche | rabc, u can either format ur hdd if u just want lubuntu, or keep your installations and just do something like Phosphenes said | 21:39 |
| Heinz_L_Maennche | but it is faster to do it the second way | 21:39 |
| rabc | yea thanks helen maybe i would like to learn the reformat clean reinstall option | 21:40 |
| Heinz_L_Maennche | and you can keep your data and some programs... | 21:40 |
| rabc | just want to reformat had problems with login pass also with xubuntu | 21:40 |
| rabc | if is not too hard | 21:40 |
| rabc | was hoping that the lubuntu-11.04.iso would have reformat option on reboot like some of the ubuntu iso ive used | 21:41 |
| Heinz_L_Maennche | then just use the "erase entire disk - and use it for lubuntu" option while installing lubuntu from cd/usb/whatever^^ | 21:41 |
| rabc | never done a reformat with linux in terminal yet so "erase entire disk" in terminal the back to command promt and then "sudo apt-get install lubuntu-core" | 21:43 |
| rabc | is that it ? | 21:43 |
| rabc | or is there a linux equivelent of a boot disk i could use for reformat | 21:44 |
| Heinz_L_Maennche | just download the lubuntu.iso file, burn it or ut it on usb and bott from it | 21:45 |
| Heinz_L_Maennche | *boot | 21:45 |
| rabc | ive got lubuntu-11.04.iso rebooted with that and command promt came up (dont know what to do next with that) and dont think its the core version | 21:47 |
| rabc | ive got coreboot 6554 from the linux format DVD maybe that would do it? | 21:48 |
| rabc | thanks folks im gonna have to read up some more on this and i appreciate all the help might be back later | 21:50 |
| bioterror | hmm | 22:57 |
| bioterror | what's the program used in lubuntu as calendar when you click "clock"? | 22:57 |
| draioch | is there a livecd for lubuntu that lets me reformat the drive and installs lubuntu-core | 23:35 |
| Heinz_L_Maennche | draioch did u ever try using google and type "lubuntu" | 23:36 |
| Heinz_L_Maennche | ? | 23:36 |
| === draioch is now known as rabc | ||
| rabc | yes heinz ive been at this all evening | 23:36 |
| rabc | i used sudo apt-get remove ............. to get rid of xubuntu | 23:38 |
| rabc | a link to a bootable cd iso with reformat option like the ubuntu live cd is what im looking for thanks | 23:40 |
| Heinz_L_Maennche | rabc, well why don't u just get the iso-image from lubuntu.net and install it? | 23:41 |
| rabc | yes thanks ive tried lubuntu-11.04.iso | 23:41 |
| Heinz_L_Maennche | but? | 23:41 |
| rabc | it took me to the command promt | 23:41 |
| rabc | i thought it would be like the live cd with reformat option | 23:42 |
| rabc | maybe i need to research more as u suggest | 23:43 |
| Heinz_L_Maennche | hm...usually if u boot from the cd u should get somewhat lika a gui | 23:43 |
| rabc | yes thats what i thought all i want to do is any easy way to reformat ext4 and install lubuntu-core | 23:44 |
| rabc | i got lubuntu running from the lubuntu-core_0.18_i386.deb | 23:45 |
| rabc | so im gettin somewhere i like it v much and now want to do a clean install | 23:45 |
| Heinz_L_Maennche | hm...the easiest way really is to either install it from the cd (which should be all gui in 11.04) or install lxde on ubuntu | 23:46 |
| Heinz_L_Maennche | (first one is easier= | 23:47 |
| Heinz_L_Maennche | ) | 23:47 |
| rabc | thanks maybe i try that boot with lubuntu-11.04.iso again but will i be able to get lubuntu core running from that | 23:47 |
| rabc | what about ubuntu-minimal cd maybe that has reformat option then lxde on top of that | 23:48 |
| Heinz_L_Maennche | do u only want lubuntu-core or do u wnat a comlete lubuntu (wich lxde-desktop)? | 23:48 |
| rabc | thats the same as lubuntu is it? | 23:48 |
| rabc | i want it as lean as possible so core would be good | 23:48 |
| Heinz_L_Maennche | i think lubuntu-core is just the core...so no desktop...only terminal | 23:48 |
| Heinz_L_Maennche | that might be why it takes you to the terminal all the time... | 23:49 |
| Heinz_L_Maennche | ^^ | 23:49 |
| bioterror | lubuntu-code comes without lxdm | 23:50 |
| bioterror | *core | 23:50 |
| rabc | hmm thanks bioterror | 23:50 |
| rabc | gonna do more reading up as confused as ever but thats why im here to learn | 23:51 |
| rabc | dont want to take up any more of your time thanks | 23:51 |
| Heinz_L_Maennche | rabc, so i think u might just want to install lubuntu | 23:51 |
| Heinz_L_Maennche | from the cd | 23:51 |
| rabc | maybe that would be the easiest | 23:52 |
| Heinz_L_Maennche | yes | 23:52 |
| bioterror | with lubuntu-desktop you wont go wrong ;) | 23:52 |
| bioterror | you CANT GO | 23:52 |
| Heinz_L_Maennche | and it really is some kind of minimalistic... | 23:52 |
| rabc | and i can just manually remove apps | 23:52 |
| rabc | and its the same as core | 23:52 |
| Heinz_L_Maennche | yes...but i think u won'r really need to | 23:52 |
| rabc | ok by the way is core just terminal with no gui | 23:53 |
| Heinz_L_Maennche | at least i can't see why | 23:53 |
| Heinz_L_Maennche | yes | 23:53 |
| Heinz_L_Maennche | core is without gui (afaik) | 23:53 |
| Unit193 | rabc: Not exactly | 23:53 |
| rabc | i thought i was running core now from the lubuntu-core_0.18_i386.deb i just installed | 23:53 |
| bioterror | core is without display manager | 23:53 |
| rabc | how can i check if its core now? | 23:54 |
| bioterror | it does not install a graphical logging manager | 23:54 |
| rabc | thanks unit193 | 23:54 |
| bioterror | startx is your friend | 23:54 |
| bioterror | or startlubuntu or what ever it was | 23:54 |
| Unit193 | startlubuntu after you start X | 23:54 |
| Unit193 | It takes two TTYs >_> | 23:55 |
| bioterror | hmm | 23:55 |
| bioterror | echo "exec startlubuntu" .xinitrc | 23:55 |
| bioterror | echo "exec startlubuntu" > .xinitrc | 23:55 |
| maraz | uh | 23:55 |
| maraz | no | 23:55 |
| maraz | >> | 23:55 |
| maraz | unless you want to overwrite the whole file | 23:55 |
| bioterror | no point in >> as it just appends | 23:55 |
| bioterror | xinit just reads that exec line | 23:56 |
| rabc | filemanager is PCManFM 0.9.9 | 23:56 |
| rabc | cant see anywhere to confirm version lubuntu im using | 23:57 |
| Unit193 | lsb_release -a | 23:57 |
| bioterror | I cant see your point | 23:57 |
