[00:50] hi philipballew [00:51] hello phillw-virtual [00:51] philipballew: would a quick PM be okay? [00:52] yes [00:52] go for it [12:16] hi [18:38] Hi Lubunties, my Lubuntu Live CD does not start, it starts only to the login screen of run level 3, in the console. Anyone an idea? [18:46] can you run command: startlubuntu [18:47] didnt try that bioterror, I just tried a sudo startx which didnt work [18:47] yep [18:47] and dont sudo X ;) [18:47] :) [18:47] strange thing is, that it is all the same on three different computer [18:47] iso md5sum is ok [18:48] burned CD is also ok [18:48] always just get the login promt of runlevel 3 [18:49] what kind of graphics card you have? [18:49] lspci |less [18:50] VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Mobile GM965/GL960 Intergrated Graphics Controller [18:50] pAt_: are you sure yu're getting a login prompt?.. does the prompt say "busybox" rightr above it? [18:50] I am sure [18:51] ok [18:51] that's not the prob, it works fine w/ Ubuntu [18:51] KM0201: didnt check this, but strange thing is, that Ubuntu Live CD works perfectly [18:51] hmm [18:52] they should share the same drivers [18:52] only gnome is replaced and few applications [18:52] jep [18:52] Are there any boot options I should try? [18:53] KM0201, and init 3 is console, init 5 is X ;) [18:53] (on Linux, Solaris has different init system) [18:53] hmm, i've saw busy box say "run level 3" before.. but.. yeah [18:55] sudo apt-get install –reinstall xserver-xorg-video-intel libgl1-mesa-glx libgl1-mesa-dri xserver-xorg-core [18:55] udo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg [18:59] I would also update repositories too [19:00] ok, thats a good idea bioterror, I have at least the console :) [19:01] I use Debian stable with LXDE on my laptop by the way, which is fast as hell :) [19:11] How can I view the sound control panel? [19:11] My speakers on my netbook at really quiet even though the applet shows that it's at full. They were louder on Ubuntu so I guess it's a setting I need to change? [19:11] kvarley, open terminal and say: alsamixer [19:12] bioterror coming to the rescue again =D [19:12] yeah! [19:12] I talk about android with you last night? [19:13] bioterror: Yeah and you were helping me with gksu :) Turns out that Ubuntu locks down su and it should never have been set to su mode. If I wanted to use su or gksu I have to launch it through sudo. [19:14] okay [19:15] I fixed my phone! I have now that rescue loader [19:15] CWM or what's that called, I can install all the custom roms from there <3 [19:15] using SD Card [19:15] that's hitech for a WindowsMobile user [19:15] no need for ActiveSync any moar [19:24] kvarley: gnome-media is able to turn the volume up to 150% which the volume control of LXDE cant [19:24] 150% :D [19:24] "this one goes to eleven!" [19:25] pAt_: Thanks for the info :) The applet wasn't working for me so using alsamixer interminal like bioterror mentioned worked for me. [19:26] kvarley: no problem, I had the same problem. That's why I am still using Gnome (LMDE) for my netbook :) [19:28] pAt_: I like gnome but all I need on my netbook is a browser/video player/IM client so the desktop environment isn't something high upon my list of needs :) I have gnome on my pc :D [19:28] best running OS is LMDE on the netbook, I tried them all :) [22:22] has anyone used ntop? [22:36] can i ask for assistance [22:50] SSX_1: you may, but for that you need to ask a specific question :) [22:51] avelldiroll: :) [22:52] I'm trying to turn an old Armada M300 into access point with a TP-Link W721 usb wifi stick [22:52] because i like my desktop kubuntu, i decided to give a shot to lubuntu, although the laptop is slightly below specs [22:53] however after performing a minimal install, it boots into an black and white striped screeen... [22:53] did my google, but can't seem to figure it out [22:54] you don't need a graphical interface to turn an old laptop into an access point [22:55] by minimal install, you mean a lubuntu minimal install or an "alternate" minimal install / mini.iso ? [22:59] mini.iso [22:59] 19 megs [22:59] avelldiroll: i know, but i'm horrible at terminal comands [22:59] years of windows spoiled me [23:00] and i can't seem to find something simple enough to turn an old pc into router [23:00] i'll be content with a web interface like a router but... [23:01] tried pfsense, but coundn't make it work [23:02] pfsense, m0n0wall are great firewall oriented distro, but i am not sure they offer the possibility to configure an access point from the web interface [23:03] are you sure your wifi drivers allow you to turn it into an access point ? (managed mode if my memory serve me well) [23:04] * phillw you may want to try zenix.. The authoring team for that involve some of the people who support apparmour. I will gladly ask their TL for suggestions. i know it runs on a really small footpront [23:05] *foot-print* [23:08] avelldiroll: as far as i know yep [23:08] phillw 10x, ill look it up [23:09] but, for a firewall suggestion, I'd go for server edition. I've asked if one of the other 'guys' I know as knowledge of using zenix in such a situation. [23:10] SSX_1: if you are looking for an even lower footprint, with a desktop, take a look at slitaz [23:12] i don't need a firewal [23:13] firewall [23:13] it's already behind another router [23:13] i want to extend the wireless coverage at home [23:18] SSX_1: you can do that with hardware... there are some inventive people out there! [23:19] yes, i can do a chinaware mod to the ADSL modem [23:19] however my ISP won't be very happy with me messing up his modem
