marge_simpsonHi, where do I put an app to start automatically when I login, please?00:06
marge_simpsonWakey, wakey, hands off snakey!  Anybody there?00:11
maxpolkmarge_simpson: menu | Preferences | Desktop Session Settings00:15
maxpolkIf it's not there, try http://wiki.lxde.org/en/Autostart00:17
Unit193marge_simpson: The Lubuntu FAQs can be found at: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Lubuntu/Documentation/FAQ and should provide you with the info you need00:18
marge_simpsonThanks folks (had to answer Nature's call there...) BFN00:22
phillwmarge_simpson: read the topic next time, much easier :D00:24
KM0201why is it, i can find a samba connection in pyneighborhood,and connect to it, but i can't see it in "network paces" on PCmanFM00:30
KM0201phillw: any ideas?00:33
phillwKM0201: pyneighboorhood was dropped as it did not work.00:34
phillwpcmanfm can quite happily handle samba00:34
KM0201phillw: well, strangely, it works fine, but pcman can't even see it00:34
KM0201thus my problem00:34
KM0201wait, i think i figured out the problem00:35
KM0201yeah, i ddi.00:35
phillwKM0201: have you got the up to date version of pcmanfm & I'd also hazard a guess at two systems wanting access to one system is not going to happy?00:35
KM0201weird, but ok00:35
KM0201naa, i got it.00:36

maxpolkI'm trying to track down the name of the Lubuntu package that lets you configure the network proxy ( like http://www.ubuntugeek.com/how-to-configure-ubuntu-desktop-to-use-your-proxy-server.html )01:19
Unit193Give me a sec01:20
maxpolkI ran into ubuntu-system-service but that's a seemingly back-end python package01:20
Unit193Found the libproxy0 lib01:20
maxpolkI ran into gnome-control-center, but that installs regular ubuntu stuff and the Unity desktop too01:21
Unit193Even with --no-install-recommends ?01:21
maxpolkoh, let me try that01:21
maxpolkI'll try it, but it seems like a lot of extra packages: http://pastebin.com/7P4wEJvz01:26
maxpolk2.5M, not a whole lot actually01:28
Unit193Some things, no matter how small, you wouldn't want to install01:29
maxpolkI went a long way, I'll just open a bug I think01:33
maxpolkDidn't help at all, removed it01:33
Unit193purge? sudo apt-get autoremove --purge   too?01:34
maxpolknice, I'll remember that one01:35
Unit193Yeah... I do that one too much...01:35
maxpolkand it removed a bunch of stuff too01:35
maxpolkwhat is the name of the Lubuntu installer?  won't accept a bug report without a package name01:58
maxpolkfound "debian-installer" in one place, not sure that's it01:58
Unit193ubiquity01:58
maxpolkThanks!01:59
Unit193!info ubiquity01:59
ubot5ubiquity (source: ubiquity): Ubuntu live CD installer. In component main, is optional. Version 2.6.10 (natty), package size 4025 kB, installed size 15068 kB01:59
Unit193Yep, spelling and all!01:59
maxpolkIs there a way to open a bug report without the boatloads of info?  It's a logical bug during installation, not related to hardware whatsoever.02:05
maxpolkplus, it was from a different machine02:05
maxpolklaunchpad.net doesn't let you just type in a new bug I don't think02:07
Unit193http://bugs.launchpad.net02:07
Unit193https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubiquity/+filebug02:09
Unit193Making me do all the work... ;)02:09
maxpolkD'oh, so sorry!!!02:09
maxpolkstupid question -- does it matter I'm filing against ubuntu / ubiquity instead of lubuntu / ubiquity?02:12
Unit193Shouldn't really, but I'm no bug expert02:13
Unit193#ubuntu-bugs may help if I can't (I donm't really mind)02:13

newbie2011Question: I'm installing xubuntu along with Ubuntu + Windows, how do I make it so that xubuntu doesn't install a boot loader, where I could just do a update-grub on Ubuntu ?12:43
newbie2011it says Device for boot loader installation:   ?12:44
sagacimight be better in #xubuntu...?12:49
newbie2011i might go there, but installation is the same anyway, lubuntu installation is based off of lubuntu anyway12:50
newbie2011lubuntu installation is base of xubuntu*12:51

bhmUbuntu One on Lubuntu? How does one install it? The sources on ubuntugeek, ubuntuforum, etc. are sparse with details. Does anyone have good experiences?18:13
KM0201bhm: just install it?18:13
KM0201apt-get install?18:13
KM0201i don't use ubuntu one, but it can't be that difficult.18:14
bhmI have used apt-get install ubuntuone-client but am missing the last step to link my folders to the cloud18:14
KM0201i use dropbox, it works fine (granted, free account only has 2gigs of storage, instead of 5)18:14
KM0201bhm: don't you have to do that via the web interface?18:15
bhmDropbox not an option :-) Must be ubuntu one. Web is manual. Ubuntuone client from gnome synchronises for me on 10.04 LTS but I want to have access to the same files from lubuntu18:16
bhmShouldn't PCMan have similar capability?18:16
Unit193Try installing   ubuntuone-control-panel-gtk   PCmanFM won't have the right-click to check where the files are on the site18:17
jmarsdenUnit193: ubuntuone-control-panel-gtk is the program, ubuntuone-client is the package.18:18
bhminstall message confirms unit193's statement18:18
jmarsdenSo sudo apt-get install ubuntuone-client     and then  run the program called    ubuntuone-control-panel-gtk18:18
Unit193!info ubuntuone-control-panel-gtk18:18
ubot5ubuntuone-control-panel-gtk (source: ubuntuone-control-panel): Ubuntu One Control Panel. In component main, is extra. Version 1.0.0-0ubuntu1.1 (natty), package size 91 kB, installed size 440 kB18:18
Unit193That's a package18:19
jmarsdenInteresting... I just installed ubuntuone-client and it provided the binary ubuntuone-control-panel-gtk ... :)18:19
jmarsdenThat's in a Oneiric alpha, maybe the packaging changed recently?18:19
Unit193Version 1.0.0-0ubuntu1.1 (natty)18:20
bhm$ ubuntuone-control-panel-gtk result: importerror: no module named controlpanel.gtk18:20
Unit193jmarsden: So you just installed ubuntuone-client and had everything you needed?18:24
Unit193Not in depends/recommends I would assume18:25
jmarsdenSeems like it... I don't think I had previously installed anything ubuntuone related... will check a little further...18:25
jmarsdenMaybe the new installer setup includes some of the ubuntuone stuff by default in Oneiric?18:25
bhmsudo apt-get install ubuntuone-client gives me the whole package and puts ubuntu one in the start menu under preferences. But it does not respond when activated.18:26
Unit193http://paste.ubuntu.com/671166/ I can check later today about UbuntuOne in Oneiric18:26
bhmalrighty... what does paste.ubuntu.com/671166/ mean?18:31
jmarsdenbhm: It is a list of all the ubuntuone stuff Unit193 has installed.18:31
bhmok and that one works?18:32
jmarsdenI don't know if it works for him... some package names have changed in Oneiric, I don't have an Lubuntu Natty VM I can test this on right now...18:32
* jmarsden makes mental note to keep more VMs around :)18:33
Unit193Sadly, that's not on Lubuntu though (Not at the Lubuntu one, and it doesn't have U1 installed anyway)18:33
Unit193How many VMs do you have?18:33
jmarsdenRight now, 15.  I don't run them all at once, obviously :)18:34
bhmi've got a VM running in virtualbox. How may I help?18:34
jmarsdenwell, if it is running Lubuntu 11.04 Natty as a gust OS, you could install the packages listed by Unit193 in that pastebin page and see if they work...18:35
bhmapt-get the whole list?18:35
jmarsdenI'd apt-get ubuntuone-client and then check to see if the others are already installed , and install any of the rest that are not present.18:36
Unit193I didn't need to even do that, they were recommends18:36
jmarsdenOK... then... we ned to find out why bhm is seeing that importerror: no module named controlpanel.gtk18:37
bhmso climbing the learning curve quickly: how would you check what is installed? synaptic list?18:37
jmarsdenbhm: dpkg -l |grep ^ii | grep ubuntuone     would be one way....18:37
Unit193dpkg -l |grep words here  (Me personally)18:37
bhmone moment...18:38
bhmall packages are there, plus some... (ran dpkg -l | grep ^ii | grep ubuntuone18:41
jmarsdenAnd you still see that import error if you run the ubuntuone-control-panel-gtk  program?18:42
bhmjep: Traceback: File "/usr/bin/ubuntuone-control-panel-gtk", line 29 in <module> from ubuntuone.controlpanel.gtk import TRANSLATION_DOMAIN .....  ImportError18:44
jmarsdenAh, that's a different error from the one you posted last time!18:44
jmarsdenCan you pastebin the whole traceback for us to read please?18:45
bhmsorry, but they are the same. I must have been too sparse in my previous message. How do I pastebin and where should I put it?18:45
bhm:-)18:45
Unit193I would think you could use pastebinit18:46
Unit193But I'm going to let jmarsden take over since he's a dev :P18:46
jmarsdenRight, you can manually browse to http://paste.ubuntu.com and paste in the text with the mouse, or you can use pastebinit18:47
bhmok. and the traceback? just the text from the cmdline or something more informative?18:48
bhmhttp://paste.ubuntu.com18:48
jmarsdenYes, all the text that showed up in the command window from the command you typed to the prompt after it displayed the traceback18:49
jmarsdenYou'll need to tell us the URL it pastebins to...18:49
bhmcoming up. VM not that fast :-)18:49
jmarsdenIf you want to automate it, something like   ubuntuone-control-panel-gtk 2>&1 |pastebinit -b http://paste.ubuntu.com18:49
Unit193paste.ubuntu.com is currently default anyway18:50
bhmpaste.ubuntu.com/671185/18:50
jmarsdenbhm: OK.  By the way, if you used the whole URL including the http: the link would be clickable and so easier for us to use :)18:51
bhmmy apologies....18:52
jmarsdenLooks like a bug or there is a python module you are missing... let me try to find where that module is on my system...18:52
jmarsdenI *think* that's a bug.. want to try editing one line of the Python code to see if I can fix it?18:54
bhm:-)18:54
jmarsdenWhat does     locate ubuntuone.controlpanel     output on your system?18:55
bhm/usr/share/dbus-1/services/com.ubuntuone.controlpanel.gui.service18:57
bhmand18:57
bhm/usr/share/dbus-1/services/com.ubuntuone.controlpanel.service18:57
jmarsdenOK.  So I think we can try editing one line of the file /usr/bin/ubuntuone-control-panel-gtk18:59
bhmvim?18:59
jmarsdenwell, we could, but I think I can do a oneliner with sed or perl instead... give me a sec...18:59
bhm:-)18:59
jmarsdensudo perl -p -i.bak -e 's/ubuntuone.controlpanel.gtk/ubuntuone.controlpanel/' /usr/bin/ubuntuone-control-panel-gtk19:02
bhmin progress...19:02
bhmcmdline happy19:04
jmarsdenOK, now does running     ubuntuone-control-panel-gtk    work?19:04
bhmhttp://paste.ubuntu.com/671197/19:06
jmarsdenHmmm.  OK, you really do seem to have some chunk of Python module(s) missing.19:07
jmarsdensudo mv /usr/bin/ubuntuone-control-panel-gtk.bak /usr/bin/ubuntuone-control-panel-gtk19:08
jmarsdenwill undo my patch.19:08
bhmin progress19:08
jmarsdenThen we need to try and find out exactly what file(s) you are missing and what packages they are in...19:08
bhmmy update manager has just announced it wants to restart19:10
bhmmay i suggest restart and then contrinue?19:10
jmarsdenGo ahead, if you want to.  Then when it comes back, try   dpkg -l python-ubuntuone-control-panel   and tell me what it says, please.19:10
bhmVM rebooting...19:11
jmarsdenI suspect your machine either does not have, or cannot "see", the files from the package  python-ubuntuone-control-panel19:14
jmarsdenDid it come back up yet?19:14
bhmyep. got a new message. putting on pastebin...19:14
bhmhttp://paste.ubuntu.com/671208/19:15
jmarsdenLooks fine... hmmm.  OK, let's try    find /usr/lib -name ubuntuone-control-panel |xargs ls -ld19:16
bhmhmmm19:18
bhmno such file or dir19:18
jmarsdenOK... so there is the issue.  Teh package claims to be installed but the files it installs are missing!19:19
bhmxargs: ls-ld: no such file or dir19:19
jmarsdenOh... no space between ls and -ld ?19:19
bhmaaah....19:19
jmarsdencut and paste the command from IRC into your VM to avoid that kind of issue... it is also usually faster than retyping stuff.19:20
bhmHow do you do that from virtualbox?19:20
bhmfind /usr/lib -name ubuntuone-control-panel |xargs ls -ld19:20
jmarsdenDo you have the guest additions installed in the gust OS?19:20
jmarsdens/gust/guest/19:20
bhmprobably not. I just installed vbox and currently run lubuntu in that as a default install19:21
bhmanyway the files are /usr/lib/pymodules/python2.7/ubuntuone-control-panel and /usr/lib/ubuntuone-control-panel19:22
jmarsdenOK... so they are there.  But apparently they are not being found by python...19:23
jmarsdenWhat does    python --version     say?19:23
bhmpython 2.7.1+19:24
jmarsdenOK, sounds normal... this is odd.  and I'm being asked to to out for lunch with my family... I expect to be back in about 90 minutes, can we restart looking at this then?19:25
bhm:-) I'll grab some dinner in the meantime :-)19:25
bhmI'm in GMT timezone...19:25
jmarsdenOK.  See you later.  I'm from the UK, but living in California.19:26
bhmEnjoy the lunch :-)19:26
bhm.21:25
jmarsdenI'm back (and full)...21:31
bhm:-)21:32
jmarsdenbhm: I set up a VM running Lubuntu 11.04 and after sudo apt-get install ubuntuone-client ubuntuone-control-panel21:32
jmarsdenthe thing "just works" for me.21:32
bhmtesting21:33
bhminstallation works smooth, but ubuntuone doesn't seem to respond.21:35
bhmI suggest to kill the VM and retry from a fresh iso.21:35
jmarsdenIf you run  ubuntuone-control-panel-gtk from a shell do you still get the traceback?21:35
bhmstand by21:35
bhm"command not found"21:36
bhmwait!21:36
bhmmade a type.21:36
bhmTraceback: "/usr/bin/ubuntuone-control-panel-gtk", line 29 in module ... import TRANSLATION_DOMAIN21:37
bhmImportError: No module named controlpanel.gtk21:37
jmarsdenOK.  If I could duplicate that issue here, I could troubleshoot it.  But for me, it runs fine.21:38
bhmok. I retry with a fresh 11.04 iso VM.21:38
bhmWas the lunch good?21:38
jmarsdenYes, thanks.  Our daughter is home for a couple of weeks before heading back to University, so it's good to spend time with her...21:39
bhm:-021:39
bhm:-)21:39
jmarsdenOK, I found a way to trace all module imports... if you want, you can try   python -v /usr/bin/ubuntuone-control-panel-gtk 2>&1 |pastebinit21:46
jmarsdenI get http://paste.ubuntu.com/671292 from Oneiric...21:47
jmarsdenBut maybe a fresh VM is simpler :)21:47
bhminstall is running....21:48
KM0201whats the name of that password tool?..  i thought it was supposed to be installed by default, but its not...21:48
KM0201(manages all the keyrings, etc..)21:48
jmarsdenseahorse ?21:49
KM0201no..21:49
KM0201i don't think so.. lemmm echeck21:49
KM0201hmm, looking at the description, that might be it.21:50
KM0201lemme look21:50
KM0201yup, thats it21:50
KM0201thanks21:51
jmarsdenYou're welcome.21:51
KM0201jmarsden: i do have one more question, (little more along the lines of ubuntu server).. if you have a second21:51
jmarsdenOK.21:51
KM0201ok, i was messing w/ vbox, trying to figure out how to rebuild a software raid 1, after a drive was removed, that went well, so long as i manually removed it, before importing/syncing a new drive.21:52
KM0201my question is, on a "live sytem".. lets assume a drive chokes... and you didn't have a chance to remove it from the RAID.. i tried removing a drive, and the server booted up, but it wouldn't let me modify the raid, because the old drive was "gone".21:53
KM0201would i have to delete the old raid(md0) and create a new one?21:53
jmarsdenOn md0 if you lose a drive, you lose that array, RAID0 has no redundancy... so probably yes.  I've only used RAID1 and RAID5 in Linux software RAID though.21:54
KM0201well its a raid 1 setup21:54
jmarsdenFor RAID1, you should be able to put a new drive in, and add it to the existing array with mdadm21:55
KM0201hmm, thats what i tried to do, but it wouldn't let me.21:56
KM0201kept saying the raid was invalid, if i recall.21:56
KM0201it showed md0, as "inactive"21:56
jmarsdenIt's been a while since I've done much with that, but you should pastebin what command you are trying and the exact error msg, and someone #ubuntu-server can probably help.21:56
jmarsdenA RAID1 array with one failed drive should be fixable... does the idea in http://dougbunger.blogspot.com/2009/02/actinvating-inactive-raid-element.html help?21:58
jmarsdenKM0201: Looks like stop, assemble, then add should work.22:00
jmarsdenbhm: Is your fresh VM install completed yet?22:08
