Avengerum, i am trying to install lubuntu with the mini.iso but after the whole mini installation, it's supposed that i should get to grub but my pc just stop responding when booting the hddd, its a pentium 3 with 128 mb... what can i do ?07:13
sagaciare you sure you installed grub in the install07:17
me-1hi....I am currently using Lubuntu 10.04 ....what should i expect from 11.0409:40
sagacime-1, updated lxde and generally newer base packages09:41
flossymikeI'm having a bit of an issue installing picasa on lubuntu. No matter how I try, when I launch it off the 'start' menu the machine locks hard such that I can't even get to another terminal. The locking happens after the initial loading page on the license page but without the license being displayed. Any thoughts appreciated12:45
m1d4si have a strange gap on the buttom and on the right of my lxterminal (how can i fix it?)13:29

natrhey guys an gals - got a very strange behaviour here...15:17
natramong other things I had a VLC player window open with a video on pause, when I signed off from my user account some hours ago after a busy working session.15:19
natrnow that window is there again when I log back in15:19
natrand not only in my account - others now also enjoy the pleasure, though the window and process clearly still belong to uzz...15:20
natrin my user account I even have sound functional and I can resume watching the film15:21
natrnext strange thing is, that <code>ps</code> shows on the command line that vlc claims to have the video file open that I was watching before that file it is showing now...15:23

aauthorHey everyone, I just did a fresh install of lubuntu.  The only thing not working right now is the sound.16:23
aauthorBut I can't even find the sound/alsa mixer.  Should it be under system tools or preferences?16:24
natrthere should be an icon in the taskbar18:33
bioterrorreally18:33
KM0201an icon for that?18:33
natrum - was a late response to aauthor ... ;-)18:34
o11o1oo1hi there, anybody around?20:20
o11o1oo1i just booted the minimal 11.04 lububuntu install, but it went straight to a console20:20
KM0201o11o1oo1: yeah, thats what it does.20:20
KM0201you boot the mini ISO, install Ubuntu, then you install Lubuntu on top of hte mini ISO.20:21
KM0201https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Lubuntu/DocumentationHelp20:21
o11o1oo1na its not the miniiso20:21
o11o1oo1its the low mem one, i think20:21
o11o1oo1680mb20:21
o11o1oo1but ill look into your link, thanks20:21
KM0201o11o1oo1: low mem one?... alternate install cd?20:22
Unit193This one? https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Lubuntu/Documentation/11.04MinimalDiskSpace20:22
KM0201hmm, never saw that one20:23
o11o1oo1i think its this one: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Lubuntu/Documentation/MinimalInstall20:24
o11o1oo1i wait20:25
o11o1oo1i just saw the name of the image is "min disk space"20:25
KM0201o11o1oo1: i think you should still have a functioning OS though, not getting kicked to a CLI.20:26
Unit193Can you run    df -h   in the terminal?20:26
o11o1oo1KM0201: i was in the process of installing, i havent partintioned my drive or anything20:27
o11o1oo1Unit193: yes, looks like tmpfs stuff20:27
Unit193Can you copy the line that says Mounted on /20:28
o11o1oo1boot, choose language, next was console20:28
o11o1oo1sry, im rebooting again, it said something about aufs i think20:29
Unit193Ok, now I understand where exactly it had the error. Did you check the MD5sum?20:29
KM0201ic, ithought he got installed.20:30
o11o1oo1lol, i think the probem might have been: selecting language with enter, might have sent enter twice, default option is "try lubuntu without installing"20:30
o11o1oo1im trying the option "install lubuntu" now, sorry about that20:31
o11o1oo1lets see if my beloved installer shows up20:31
o11o1oo1hm, no expert option20:32
Unit193That option isn't on that CD (The LiveCD is what you have)20:33
o11o1oo1ok, which iso is the one, where i install ubuntu minimal (like only shell and network) and then pull the lubuntu parts via adb?20:33
o11o1oo1im pretty sure i got the one from the bottom of http://lubuntu.lafibre.info/11.04/20:34
Unit193What's your RAM?20:34
KM0201hmm20:34
Unit193That's for low HDD, not low RAM20:35
Unit193This is what you're looking for https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Lubuntu/Documentation/MinimalInstall#11.04%2032%20Bit20:35
o11o1oo1actually i have plenty of both, but i wanted to install as little as possible20:35
Unit193Ah! The normal CD installs just as much as that one does, the change was to the installers requirements20:36
o11o1oo1weird though that the link on lafibre.info is actually the livecd20:36
o11o1oo1now i got a graphical installer, i guess im fine with that20:37
KM0201how do i set Lubuntu to auto-login?20:38
Unit193KM0201: It's in the FAQs  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Lubuntu/Documentation/FAQ20:39
KM0201thanks20:40
KM0201Unit193: do you know why ntfs-config wouldn't work in lxde?20:51
KM0201nevermind, terminal just spit out a ton of junk when it didn't start... i'll just do it CLI.20:52
Unit193You could just use ntfs-3g20:53
KM0201hmm, i didn't know about that tool.20:55
KM0201will that assist me in automounting an ntfs partition?20:55
Unit193Use !fstab20:57
KM0201yeah, i think fstab is gonna do it.20:57
aaasim trying to configure nomachine with lubuntu... what is the command you would use to start the xserver?  found a doc that says startlxde, but I don't have this?23:23
Unit193startlubuntu should do it23:26
aaasyep that did it thanks unit19323:27
Unit193Sure! Glad you got NoMachine working!23:34
