[00:05] do I need to uninstall the current NVIDIA driver before installing the .run downloaded from their site ? [00:32] anybody around? [00:33] KM0201: oi [00:33] having sound issues (had to buy a new laptop) [00:34] hang on, getting the device [00:34] 00:1b.0 Audio device: Intel Corporation 5 Series/3400 Series Chipset High Definition Audio (rev 05) [00:34] google doesn't turn up much [00:38] KM0201: have you turned up alsa? [00:39] stlsaint: turned up alsa? it's maxed out [00:40] KM0201: open a terminal and type in: alsamixer [00:40] i know that [00:40] its maxed out [00:41] KM0201: can you view your sound preferences? [00:41] under alsamixer? [00:41] or w/ pavucontrol? [00:42] cuz pavucontrol says "connection failed, connection refused" [00:43] can you select a sound device in alsa? [00:43] no [00:44] i only have 1 device [00:44] hm... just on a whim... "pulse audio is not installed".. ? [00:44] i'm thinking that could be a problem. [00:44] lol [00:44] installing now [00:44] brb, [01:02] ok, sound is working now, just not passing through to my headphones [01:04] stlsaint: u still around? [01:07] KM0201: (01:43:58) stlsaint: later [01:07] oh, sorry [01:07] myst have been gone for that one [01:08] phillw: any ideas? [01:08] he may have hit the bed! [01:08] yeah. [01:09] phillw: ok, well, if Unit193 or bioterror gets bored, ask them to take a look at my prob, i gotta leave for about 5min [01:09] KM0201: you, I would advise the main forum area for the section that deals with it? [01:09] brb [01:09] huh? [01:09] what main forum area? [01:12] KM0201: have a read of the areas on http://ubuntuforums.org/ but for sound..... http://ubuntuforums.org/forumdisplay.php?f=334 would be my place to head :) [01:12] The stickies there are pretty darn good :) [01:21] hmm [01:53] man, i've not had sound probs like this in a long time [01:53] i can't even find any references to my device [02:04] KM0201: I have not had problems with sound from my 9.04 - so I am not the best to help. [02:04] yeah, i went through alsaconf(i had to do that on my other acer, but hadn't had to since like 8.10) [02:04] and my device isn't listed anywhere in that file [02:06] KM0201: is it Lubuntu or generic problem? [02:10] phillw: not sure, i've not tried it w/ Ubuntu [02:10] i suspect its a generic problem [02:10] i just tested my mic w/ skype, works great [02:11] brb [02:39] phillw: where can i download lubuntu 11.10 [02:50] Unit193: ? [02:57] KM0201: http://people.ubuntu.com/~gilir/lubuntu-oneiric-alpha1.iso [02:58] KM0201: http://people.ubuntu.com/~gilir/md5sum.txt [02:58] tx [02:59] this sound thing is driving me nanners Unit193 [02:59] any idas? [02:59] As always, this development release is NOT suitable for production machines! [02:59] yeah, yeah. [02:59] lol [03:00] And A2 should be out soon [03:00] "Sound thing" doesn't exactly help [03:00] oh, i thought maybe you scrolled up [03:00] 00:1b.0 Audio device: Intel Corporation 5 Series/3400 Series Chipset High Definition Audio (rev 05) [03:01] mic works, sound (when headphones not plugged in) works, sound does not pass through to headphones [03:02] Unit193: http://pastebin.com/CrNW2mq5 there's another output thta may help [03:03] i can't find any reference at all to either of those [03:06] I haven't really had too many sound issues. I also need to go as there will be an early day tomorrow [03:07] ah ok [03:07] best wishes [03:36] * phillw can any one please take notice of the topic? [03:36] * phillw we do try!!!!! [03:38] Forget sleep. The get Lubuntu link didn't seem to have a link for 11.10 (It's going to be in plain sight) [03:39] phillw: hmm, it's kinda hidden up there [03:39] lol [03:39] /topic will show you and you get it on join [03:40] yeah. [03:40] Unit193: u think downloading the 64bit vversion of Lubuntu, would alleviate my problem? [03:40] KM0201: On the sound. Did you happen to open alsamixer and see a headphone level? [03:41] KM0201: that has all our list. [03:41] Unit193: yeah, did that a while ago, it's at 100. [03:41] And it's on 00 ? [03:42] phillw: 11.10 was on there (I did see it at the bottom, but didn't happen to see the download link) [03:42] +? [03:42] Unit193: yes, 00/100 it's maxed out [03:43] just for grins, i tried fedora 15, no sound there either [03:43] And you are sure it works? [03:43] yes [03:43] positive [03:43] if i use headphones under 7, it works fine [03:44] if i unplug my headphones, sound works fine [03:44] I don't really do sound as it always seems to work for me (But older than dirt hardware) [03:45] yeah [03:45] i had a few minor issues w/ sound and ... i think 8.10 (maybe earlier) [05:26] Does Lubuntu 11.10 have any major bugs? [07:29] hello,stupid question:i've installed lubuntu first time,On the Installation i've given my Name "Erik Fröhlich" and Password.Now i can't login,Who is my failure,Wich "User" should i use root and ubuntu don't work [07:29] Erik or Erik Fröhlich don't, too [12:11] Hi is it possible to make a single click launch desktop icons? [12:11] I am also unable to change the double click delay [12:12] is there anyone out there? [15:52] Hello [15:52] I think I bumped into a bug on lubuntu 11.04 [15:53] When I try to open a folder on my DVD drive device, pcmanfm closes (right now there's a VCD in drive) [15:53] VCD = Vide CD [15:53] *Video [15:54] I tried starting pcmanfm from terminal but it drops me back to console prompt after starting pcmanfm....so, I can't get anything on terminal [16:06] so yeah.. installer freezes with new netbook [16:07] and so does "try lubuntu without installing" [16:07] gonna try regular ubuntu now [16:11] Byan, Which netbook? [16:11] acer ao722 I think [16:11] And, when does it freeze (do you get any messages on console)? [16:11] http://www.amazon.com/Acer-AO722-BZ454-11-6-Inch-Netbook-Espresso/dp/B004UR16ES [16:12] some messages that look like ext4 driver complaining, but thats it [16:12] theres a driver for a filesystem? [16:13] it will either freeze when I hit next or it'll freeze at terminal if I do try lubuntu [16:13] seems to hardlock, can't get to tty [16:13] stlsaint: yes.. [16:14] ah that's bad [16:17] Byan: aye, we are not thinking in the same context here...nevermind [16:31] ubuntu hard locks too.. [16:31] windows may not even be working.. [16:31] this might just be a hardware fail [16:36] nope.. windows works ok [16:36] *sad* === JoeMaverickSett is now known as MavJS [17:09] \o/oot got my sound working on my new laptop. [17:10] What did you do"? [17:11] um.. find the link [17:11] http://www.webupd8.org/2010/03/how-to-switch-to-alsa-or-oss-instead-of.html [17:12] strange thing, i used the part under "Update".... and in the window, my options, are still set to Pulse Audio, but obviously something changed, because my sound is flawless [17:14] one other strange thing... [17:14] if I boot 7, and reboot back to Lubuntu, my sound does not work (same behavior as before).. [17:15] if i shut down from WIndows, then power back on to Lubuntu, sound works fine. [17:15] restarting Lubuntu and going back to Lubuntu, causes no issue. [17:23] hm [17:36] crunchbang works.. but is obviously missing drivers [17:37] Byan: so switch to Lubuntu... it's awesome [17:39] lubuntu hard locks on me during installation [17:40] hm.. whats your hardware? [17:40] I would be willing to wager that the fact that crunchbang is missing the drivers is the reason it's working [17:40] ao 722 [17:40] acer ao722 [17:40] hmmm [17:41] is the live cd booting at all? [17:41] it gets to the wizard and freezes when I hit next [17:41] cuz just looking at the specs, it has the juice to run Lubuntu quite easily (1ghz, 2gig of ram, 250gig hard drive, radeon 6250) [17:41] i wonder if the radeon is causing you probs [17:42] 12:13 < Byan> it will either freeze when I hit next or it'll freeze at terminal if I do try lubuntu [17:42] 12:13 < Byan> seems to hardlock, can't get to tty [17:42] yeah, likely [17:42] thats what I was just saying =p [17:42] hmm, and i'm not sure how to run the alternate install from USB [17:43] err, the same way you run the live cd? [17:43] is there a way I could disable the ati drivers? [17:44] on the live cd [17:44] no, because the Alt. CD, specifically looks for files on the CD, which isn't a USB> [17:44] really? hmm [17:44] yes [17:44] during the install it will try to access /dev/cdrom [17:44] thats silly of it [17:44] there's a way to use the alt. cd from the usb.... but i'm not sure how. [17:45] you sure it explicitly does that.. cause I seem to remember people netbooting to alt install [17:45] Doesn't matter as 11.04 doesn't HAVE an alt cd [17:46] Try a mini install and add lubuntu-desktop on it (should run with --no-install-recommends) [17:46] well, this is true.. [17:46] doesn't the mini iso though, install a bunch of gnome crap as well though [17:46] http://lug.mtu.edu/iso/ubuntu/11.04/ubuntu-11.04-alternate-amd64.iso [17:46] As I said, run sudo apt-get install lubuntu-desktop --no-install-recommends [17:46] so lubuntu deosn't have an alternate? [17:47] Byan thats ubuntu, not lubuntu [17:47] just confirming [17:47] Byan: have youc onsidered trying to install Lubuntu 32bit? [17:47] oh wait, you probably have. [17:47] I think thats what I was using [17:47] I wonder if 64bit would work.. [17:48] Byan: It doesn't have one, check the /topic [17:48] 64bit, as of now, is a community port isn't it?... and frankly, if 32bit doesn't work, it's very unlikely 64bit will. [17:48] i agree w/ Unit193 mini iso, then install lubuntu-desktop no-recommends [17:49] Byan: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Lubuntu/DocumentationHelp/MinimalInstall [17:49] hmmm [17:49] minimal works fine from usb, correct? [17:50] Byan: i have no idea [17:50] I am going to try crunchbang first I think. [17:50] of course the other option, is to just do an Ubuntu server install, then stick lxde on topp of it [17:50] Byan: do you have linux experience?... if you doon't... crunchbang/debian is gonna likely be a difficult journey [17:50] I do [17:51] Byan: It does work with USB. Might as well try #! [17:51] I've used crunchbang in the past [17:51] hello all [17:52] oh ok. [17:52] now.. need a name for this machine.. [17:53] Byan: This will go for that too http://xkcd.com/910/ [17:53] hosoka: Howdy [17:55] I was not able to find a good support for silverlight on Chromium browser. is there any solution ? [17:55] I wish something would remind me to try to think of a name in my idle time before I do this [17:55] hosoka: What are you looking to do with it? There is moonlight, but you can't use it with Netflix [17:55] on the other hand.. being able to look at the machine while naming it might be important [17:55] I am using the stable version 12.0.742.112 (90304) Ubuntu 11.04 on Chromium [17:56] Unit193: do I need to install Netflix also ? [17:56] netflix does not work with linux. End Of Story. [17:56] hosoka: You don't "install" Netflix [17:56] ^^^ Exactly [17:58] as i already installed silverlight but still seeing Mplayer doing just nothing. [17:59] even if I am using the latest Firefox this silverlight won't work. [17:59] If you installed silverlight, you did it in wine and that won't interact with anything outside of wine [17:59] yup. [18:00] no, installing silverlight will return to the moonlight section which I used. [18:00] i do not use wine. [18:00] .. [18:00] should it not work by default this moonlight with either Chromium or Firefox ? [18:01] Ok, you installed moonlight? Install moonlight-plugin-chromium also [18:04] Or moonlight-plugin-mozilla [18:15] this is the outcome. I am using the website www.uitzendingengemist.nl and there standard it is using silverlight / moonlight. With this the plugin got stuck and then I could use flash and the loading went with any problems. Might be that the plugin of moonlight is getting difficulties. [18:15] somehow I fucked up my windows install [18:15] maybe this thing is cursed and should be returned.. [18:15] !language | Byan [18:15] Byan: Please watch your language and topic to help keep this channel family-friendly, polite, and professional. [18:15] oh, sorry [18:17] anyone know how to use the recovery partition on an acer by chance? [18:18] press F11 or something like that [18:19] and oh well, I got CD with my Acer ;) [18:19] I've used it as a bookmark when reading bedtime stories [18:20] I got a CD too.. but I don't have a USB cd-rom drive [18:21] Byan: i think you just hit F11, boot the recover, and let it do its thing [18:22] how did you screw up your windows partition.. and if you did, are you sure you didn't also screw up your recovery partition? [18:22] I have no idea, and I'm not sure [18:22] one os per computer, one love ;) [18:23] bioterror: i got a new laptop yesterday, and i'm seriously debating nuking 7.. it's awful. [18:23] then i'll put XP in vbox, so i can sync my zune [18:23] there is no open source zune stuff? [18:24] lol, did you say that w/o laughing? [18:24] the zune is the only thing microsoft has completely, 100%, secured against hackers [18:28] really hmm [18:28] is it a new zune? [18:29] no [18:29] zunes are just extremely difficult to crack, there's been lots of tries [18:31] no rockbox for zune :D [18:31] good to know.. [18:31] negative (at least to my knowledge) [18:31] never buying a zune [18:31] ipod 5g's are better sounding anyway [18:32] Byan: they are actually nice players, zune marketplace sucks (kinda like itunes).. i used to sync it w/ a very small xp partition, but it might be time to do it w/ a virtual install. [18:33] do you know what kind of dac they have? [18:35] looks like zune 30 actually has a nice DAC [18:35] hmm [18:35] i dunno [18:36] i have an 80gig [18:36] it's an older one, but i love it [18:39] I have an iRiver s100. Best money spent ever. [18:39] Drag and drop music, DAB radio, expandable with micro sd cards. [18:41] head_victim: i almost bought one of those [18:42] I was mainly looking for a portable dab radio and its by far the best of those - full colour display when most others have simple text. [20:50] well, son of a bitch, crunchbang won't install [20:50] back to lubuntu-minimal I suppose.. [20:51] hmm [20:52] whats the prob w/ crunchbang? [20:52] Byan: That stinks. Do you still have a link for the mini install? (Remember family friendly) [20:52] oh, sorry. not used to being family friendly on irc I guess [20:52] KM0201: not sure, I get a bunch of.. [20:53] syslog says apt-get install or in-target is already running, so you cannot run either of them again until the other instance finishes [21:25] so why is there no alternative install for lubuntu anyway? [21:25] Because we are not yet using the Ubuntu build system (Each one has to be made by hand) [21:26] oh [21:29] gonna have to restart it cause the acrhive mirror is too slow.. [21:30] gah.. [21:30] how do I input one by hand [21:30] well shit [21:32] well mdan [21:32] damn [21:32] hmmmmmm [21:35] Byan: *Each ISO has to be built by one of the devs by hand. You can easily use the mini.iso https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Lubuntu/DocumentationHelp/MinimalInstall [21:36] I am using mini.iso [21:36] it's taking forever to download everything.. [21:38] I wonder if I can use the alternate iso from ubuntu... [22:07] Byan: there is an alternate for 10.10 that may be of help. I do not hold the mini-iso's on my server as they can be updated and I would be out of synch with them :/ [22:07] is there a way to use ubuntu's alternate for 11.04 and remove ubuntu-desktop from it? [22:08] yes :) [22:09] any hints? [22:09] I feel like there used to be a way to change the packages right in the installer [22:09] it is discussed at http://psychocats.net/ubuntu/purelxde although we do recommend a slightly different command to keep back undeeded stuff... give me a moment to dig out the link [22:11] https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Lubuntu/Documentation/UpgradeToLubuntu [22:11] found it :D [22:11] thats not what I had in mind, but that'll work.. [22:13] I think you are minded to the use of tasksel, that is not yet available for Lubuntu as we are not yet 'official'. [22:14] tasksel can install different flavours (along with a whole host of other jobs). One problem being that it has been dropped as a default part of the core :/ [22:14] when will we be official? [22:14] 11.10 is the due date for us :) [22:18] anyway [22:18] I have a feeling this won't work anyway [22:18] I think that maybe my MBR is locked.. [22:18] At that point, we will also be added to the options for Wubi although you can manually choose a downloaded iso already. [22:20] that is something I am not familiar with, if you ask on #ubuntu-begginers someone there may be better placed to help you. [22:21] Bbeginners* [22:21] FFS [22:21] beginners [22:32] bioterror: are you awake? [22:36] phillw: I chose manual selection of packages and I seem to have something of an ubuntu-minimal install now [22:36] =) [22:37] if you have got a core system installed, you should be able to follow the mini-iso instructions to put lubuntu on. [22:37] yeah, I got it covered from here [23:37] is there a way to make lubuntu have login/shutdown music? [23:38] KM0201: music as in Miley Cyrus music??? o_O [23:38] lol, [23:38] i was thinking more like how windows plays a tone when it starts up, or Ubuntu has the africans humming when you log in [23:41] africans??? [23:42] woops [23:43] KM0201: there are africans humming in ubuntu?? [23:43] how do you know they are african? :P [23:43] stlsaint: you've never heard when ubuntu signs on, the africans humming? [23:43] at least thats what i've been told i tis. [23:43] again...how do you know they are africans?? [23:43] * stlsaint is african-american :P [23:43] i dunno.. i guess cuz shuttleworth is fromm south africa [23:44] i didn't say thats what they were, just saying thats what i was told. [23:44] sssuuurreeee [23:44] shuttleworth is from south africa, and is white... [23:44] Jungle Drums [23:44] i dunno, doesn't sound like drums ot me, but that's really not the point of my question. [23:46] KM0201: i know, i just wanted to poke at ya [23:48] Unit193: so any idea? [23:48] KM0201: I have never needed login sounds in Lubuntu (or anything else for that matter...) [23:49] Unit193: lol, well i don't "need" it.. thats for sure... [23:49] and it is definitely unnecessary, i won't deny that [23:49] KM0201: i know ubuntu can not sure how to in lubuntu [23:49] yeah, Ubuntu it's easy. [23:50] Unit193: did i tell you i fixed my sound prob? [23:51] KM0201: This should give you an idea http://forum.lxde.org/viewtopic.php?t=744&f=8 [23:52] hmmm, well, not that important, Lubuntu boots so fast, i wouldn't want to slow it down while it loaded a tone
