| riddler | hey guys, any recommendation for lubuntu program/software that mounts .iso files | 02:44 |
|---|---|---|
| stlsaint | riddler: ark or archive mounter | 02:45 |
| riddler | stlsaint, ok thnx for the tip | 02:46 |
| KM0201 | riddler: or gmountiso.. it's deadnuts simple | 02:46 |
| stlsaint | riddler: brasero also but yes gmount is nice | 02:46 |
| riddler | ah alrite, ill check those out ty | 02:47 |
| KM0201 | i think i'm gonna use Lubuntu to run my headless server... i tried to setup Ubuntu Server, but I'm just not competent enough w/ CLI... I can do it in about 15-20min w/ Lubuntu | 02:48 |
| KM0201 | after i uninstalled all the apps I didn't need, installed a few I did (openssh, samba, .etc.).. the install takes less than 2gigs, completely updated. | 02:48 |
| stlsaint | KM0201: what issues are you having? | 02:48 |
| KM0201 | stlsaint: no real "issues" i just have to google foor commands constantly while setting up, some of them work, some of them do not, so then i gotta start googling again, often coming across many of the commands that didn't work for me in the first place. | 02:49 |
| stlsaint | KM0201: making a headless server forward a gui takes up much unwarranted resources | 02:50 |
| KM0201 | stlsaint: i guess i could disable X | 02:50 |
| stlsaint | KM0201: which puts you back at cli :D | 02:50 |
| * KM0201 sighs... i know | 02:50 | |
| stlsaint | solution==learn command line | 02:50 |
| KM0201 | yeah, thats a good solution, and honestly, as long as i've been using linux, i'm a little embarassed i'm not better at it than I am. | 02:51 |
| stlsaint | :) | 02:51 |
| KM0201 | i can't believe i can get the install under 2gigs though..lol | 02:51 |
| stlsaint | its due to my servers that i even learned command line and started preferring it over gui even on desktop installs | 02:52 |
| stlsaint | hence i like irssi :D | 02:52 |
| KM0201 | yeah, it's just that FreeNas has upset me.. so i gotta dump it. | 02:52 |
| KM0201 | that's really all i use i tfor, is a NAS.. | 02:52 |
| stlsaint | aye | 02:53 |
| KM0201 | besides that, most of the time, GUI will not even be "logged in".. as i'll just SSH in if i need to do something. | 02:53 |
| KM0201 | it'll just be there if i ever need it. | 02:54 |
| stlsaint | KM0201: what are your server specs? | 02:55 |
| KM0201 | 2x2tb, 1.4ghz procssor, 1.5gig of ram. | 02:55 |
| Unit193 | Wait, what's a desktop? ;) | 02:55 |
| KM0201 | like i said, it's just a NAS | 02:55 |
| KM0201 | my main pc, is 2.3hz, my laptop.. i think its a 2ghz celeron | 02:56 |
| KM0201 | i just got the laptop, about 2 weeks agoo. | 02:57 |
| KM0201 | absolutely sucks w/ 7 (i knew it would, not enough ram), but it scorches the earth on Lubuntu | 02:57 |
| stlsaint | KM0201: yea at 1.5GB you are gonna want to take resource usage into consideration | 02:58 |
| KM0201 | stlsaint: i think it will work fine | 02:59 |
| KM0201 | if it's an issue, i'll adapt and overcome | 02:59 |
| stlsaint | KM0201: my primary server has 32GB ram and i still run ubuntu server with no X, not even webmin! :D | 02:59 |
| Unit193 | stlsaint: Wow, nice server! | 02:59 |
| KM0201 | i've not "rolled it out" yet, i've been testing it in Vbox this week (2 virtual drives, 10gigs, 512mb of ram).. too simulate my server on a smaller scale, and i think its gonna work fine | 03:00 |
| stlsaint | Unit193: oh yea! I it and two other servers ready for deployment for $400 | 03:00 |
| KM0201 | i think i have it about perfected | 03:00 |
| KM0201 | stlsaint: i'm sure that fits your needs but for me, that is just freaking ridiculous. | 03:00 |
| stlsaint | KM0201: oh no dude i have no need for freaking 32GB ram, it just came with the server when i bought it! | 03:00 |
| stlsaint | even with virtualization/contextualization i still am not using 32GB ram! | 03:01 |
| KM0201 | stlsaint: i can only imagine what that cost you, and like i said, totally ridiculous for my needs | 03:01 |
| KM0201 | i was gonna buy a readyNas, but they seem a little limited, and i had all the stuff here to build one | 03:01 |
| Unit193 | stlsaint: I should get a VPS from you then ;) | 03:01 |
| KM0201 | i've been happy w/ FreeNas since 6, then i made the mistake of installing 8, which has given me nothing but issues. | 03:02 |
| stlsaint | KM0201: see my comment above man, i got that big server that is a 2xQuad core, 2TB drives, 32GB ram, plus two other smaller servers with spare parts all for $400!! | 03:02 |
| KM0201 | and now i can't find my 6 cd, and they no longer have it for download.. | 03:02 |
| KM0201 | stlsaint: wow, good deal. | 03:02 |
| KM0201 | the components are worth way more than that. | 03:02 |
| stlsaint | KM0201: heck yea, so you are right i have no need for it at this current time but i couldnt pass up a deal like that!! | 03:02 |
| stlsaint | Unit193: you should! :D | 03:03 |
| stlsaint | Unit193: when i get back to the states of course! | 03:03 |
| Unit193 | stlsaint: Na, I was just kidding. I wouldn't fully know what to do with it to cover the price :P | 03:04 |
| stlsaint | Unit193: ha, i wouldnt charge ya man! | 03:05 |
| Unit193 | Eh? Why not? You have the hardware to do it as long as you have the uptime, you can give Ubuntu folk discounts | 03:07 |
| stlsaint | Unit193: i offered to give some space out to those who just wanted to learn linux or programming databasing etc | 03:07 |
| stlsaint | Unit193: and you wouldnt much options like backups, reinstalls, etc as you would with a actual provider | 03:08 |

| Unit193 | jibel_: Thanks, I updated it (I wouldn't have noticed) | 06:40 |
| w30 | I got my network printer setup and I can print a test page. I don't have any lpr and any buttons to tell lubuntu to print. What do I need to install. Install lpr didn't work. | 15:26 |
| * w30 has to go for now | 16:20 | |
| w30 | I don't have any print choices in any apps and no lpr either. Adding lpr didn't fix it. What do I add? | 17:23 |
| w30 | I have <file><save>, <save as>, etc. but no <print> | 17:25 |
| w30 | I can print a test page but that is all I can print | 17:26 |
| lxdevm | hi guys, just testing out lubuntu in a vm; gotta say i'm impressed | 17:36 |
| w30 | lxdevm, seems to be lean and mean, ha! I have just saved a useless HP Mini Netbook with Lubuntu. Worthless with XP | 17:39 |
| w30 | XP took up the whole 8.6 solid state drive, I couldn't even get word installed. | 17:40 |
| blackcatnekonegr | Hi, what is the command for lubuntu to reinstall using online packages in terminal mode? | 17:41 |
| lxdevm | w30: lxde seems to be a great fallback if xfce gets out of control | 17:43 |
| w30 | lxdevm, you mean feature bloat? | 17:44 |
| lxdevm | w30: yeah, for now it's ok but i'm not sure if it will stay that way | 17:45 |
| w30 | blackcatnekonegr, I would guess apt-get. see man apt-get | 17:45 |
| blackcatnekonegr | blackcatnekonegr, apt-get +what? | 17:45 |
| w30 | blackcatnekonegr, I don't see reinstall but I see purge, install, etc. remove flags | 17:46 |
| lxdevm | w30: i'm a fan of the *bsds so hopefully xfce won't go the way of gnome | 17:46 |
| blackcatnekonegr | alternateley, I have the image of the cd and an usb flash drive , how do I make the usb installer using only linux tools? | 17:47 |
| w30 | blackcatnekonegr, I used Ubuntu 11.4's startup disc creator and put the Lubuntu iso on a flash drive, not a cd. | 17:49 |
| blackcatnekonegr | I do not use ubuntu 11.4, but 10.10, I need a generic tool | 17:50 |
| blackcatnekonegr | on a way for the mounted cd image installer to boot in linux | 17:51 |
| blackcatnekonegr | *or | 17:51 |
| w30 | blackcatnekonegr, it allows 4 gig for configuration files like printer setups and other necessary drivers | 17:51 |
| blackcatnekonegr | the lubuntu image is less than 800 mb, the usb installer should be more than fine in a 1 gb pendrive | 17:52 |
| w30 | blackcatnekonegr, see if your synaptic has disc creator? | 17:52 |
| blackcatnekonegr | I seem to have it, but I need a usb installer not a cd | 17:53 |
| blackcatnekonegr | cds get screwed in my dvd drive after a few uses | 17:53 |
| blackcatnekonegr | I only use the lubuntu disk once and it alredy gives me errors, and I had checked it for errors just after I made it! | 17:54 |
| w30 | blackcatnekonegr, not sure of the package name but the title bar application says Make Staerup Disk | 17:54 |
| w30 | Startup | 17:54 |
| blackcatnekonegr | again, I need a tool to burn the imagine on a usb flash drive, using linux | 17:55 |
| blackcatnekonegr | is a shame lubuntu doesnt have a usb creator for linux | 17:56 |
| blackcatnekonegr | I can mount the iso in linux, but I cant start the installer program | 17:56 |
| lxdevm | blackcatnekonegr: search for unetbootin in synaptic | 17:57 |
| blackcatnekonegr | I am using ubuntu right know, any ubuntu tool that lets me make a usb flash installer so I boot fith that and install lubuntu in my other hard disk? because I dont want to waste another cd with the dvd rom that destroys cds | 17:59 |
| lxdevm | blackcatnekonegr: search for unetbootin in synaptic | 17:59 |
| w30 | blackcatnekonegr, here ya go: usb-creator-gtk and usb-creator-common | 17:59 |
| w30 | blackcatnekonegr, see if synaptic has that | 18:00 |
| blackcatnekonegr | please stop | 18:01 |
| w30 | this makes a bootable flash drive out of a linux iso. What is it that you want? | 18:03 |
| blackcatnekonegr | yes | 18:03 |
| w30 | usb-creator is a .deb package so maybe it would install on Ubuntu 10.10\ | 18:05 |
| blackcatnekonegr | as I said, please stop | 18:06 |
| w30 | blackcatnekonegr, gladly done | 18:07 |
| blackcatnekonegr | thanks | 18:08 |
| blackcatnekonegr | will come back later to say if it worked | 18:08 |
| blackcatnekonegr | bye | 18:09 |
| * w30 grrrr.............. | 18:09 | |
| lxdevm | he was asking the same on #ubuntu | 18:11 |

| bioterror | xcompmgr is not that great, to be quite honest | 21:42 |
| Unit193 | Compiz ;) | 21:42 |
| socratesxd | i think that its the default desktop when you install the os, Unit193 | 21:42 |

| socratesxd | hmm | 21:55 |
| socratesxd | cairo-dock... | 21:56 |
| socratesxd | i wanted docky, but anyway | 21:56 |
| bioterror | as you wish | 21:56 |
| socratesxd | but, cairo-compositing allows to configure it? | 21:56 |
| bioterror | you can install dmenu if you want :D | 22:02 |
