| Unit193 | Bad joke, what's the issue? | 03:13 |
| yesitisjustme | does msi extension work in wine? | 03:16 |
| Unit193 | Kind of, but you need to change something | 03:17 |
| Unit193 | First run sudo apt-get install winetricks then sh winetricks msi2 | 03:18 |
| yesitisjustme | wine tricks is needed for it to work? | 03:26 |
| yesitisjustme | ok | 03:26 |
| Unit193 | Well, it's the quick and easy way | 03:27 |
| silverarrow | hi | 04:48 |
| JohnDoe_71Rus | Hi | 04:48 |
| silverarrow | anyone clever with firefox addon? | 04:48 |
| silverarrow | I am on to a bug in gnome mplayer | 04:48 |
| silverarrow | yesitisjustme, hi | 05:18 |
| JadedJacob | Good evening. | 06:31 |
| JadedJacob | What size do you guys use for your /root partition if you're not using a home partition? | 06:32 |
| bioterror | depends | 06:33 |
| bioterror | 10GB could be enough | 06:33 |
| M0hi | JadedJacob: what are the applications you install/use ? like somw web development or some other | 06:33 |
| bioterror | I would give maybe 15 | 06:33 |
| M0hi | bioterror: 20 ? :P | 06:34 |
| JadedJacob | I'm setting up a triple boot for a friend. | 06:34 |
| bioterror | why? | 06:34 |
| JadedJacob | Vista (cringes) Lubuntu, and Opensuse 11.04 | 06:34 |
| JadedJacob | They want to test out in linux | 06:34 |
| JadedJacob | So I'm installing lubuntu and opensuse for them. | 06:35 |
| JadedJacob | just basic internet and media use | 06:35 |
| JadedJacob | So I'll just install VLC Player and make sure flash player works and leave it at that. | 06:35 |
| M0hi | then 10 will do | 06:36 |
| JadedJacob | 80GB = 74GB as far as Gparted is concerned. | 06:36 |
| M0hi | 10 GB I mean | 06:36 |
| JadedJacob | 4gb for the vista recovery partition. so i gave vista 35GB, and I have 35GB left for linux | 06:36 |
| JadedJacob | How about 15GB for each distro, and 5GB for the swap file? | 06:37 |
| M0hi | JadedJacob: 10 GB is enough for lubuntu. Its upto you to give more memory | 06:39 |
| silverarrow | is gnome mplayer freeze, a lubuntu issue | 06:45 |
| silverarrow | knows bug? | 06:45 |
| silverarrow | known bug* | 06:45 |
| silverarrow | bioterror? | 06:45 |
| bioterror | http://launchpad.net/ | 06:46 |
| bioterror | you can search for gnome player | 06:47 |
| M0hi | silverarrow: is the other players also having the same issue? If not, register a bug in launchpad.net as bioterror mentioned | 06:47 |
| M0hi | but under gnome player and not under lubuntu | 06:47 |
| silverarrow | no only mplayer, vlc doesn't cause freeze-up, but then again will not work | 06:48 |
| silverarrow | vlc, works on some stuff | 06:48 |
| === bastlfreenode is now known as thebastl | ||
| JadedJacob | Thanks M0hi | 06:49 |
| M0hi | no probs JadedJacob =] | 06:50 |
| JadedJacob | Now I just have to work whether to use 10GB for each distro, and then a 10GB as a shared storage partition. | 06:51 |
| JadedJacob | OR | 06:51 |
| JadedJacob | 15GB per distro and mount points to each distro's user dir :) | 06:52 |
| bioterror | you should use all the 80GB for Lubuntu. | 06:53 |
| bioterror | next! ;D | 06:53 |
| JadedJacob | ;) | 06:54 |
| M0hi | bioterror: :P | 07:01 |
| silverarrow | it's always a bit daft with bugs, nobody wants them. I don't think it's a mplayer issue / I do think it's an mplayer issue | 07:02 |
| bioterror | then backtrace that gnome mplayer | 07:03 |
| bioterror | install all the dev -packages for mplayer and gnome-mplayer | 07:03 |
| bioterror | you get more specific data | 07:03 |
| silverarrow | maybe related ? https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/chromium-browser/+bug/788430 | 07:04 |
| ubot5 | Ubuntu bug 788430 in chromium-browser (Ubuntu) "Chromium causes computer to freeze when playing .asf video" [Undecided,New] | 07:04 |

| silverarrow | which is mplayer | 07:05 |

| IAmNotThatGuy | silverarrow: mplayer and flash player drivers has no link. Try VLC/ some other movie players please | 07:13 |
| silverarrow | vlc do not freeze, I have it, but it will not play like mplayer | 07:17 |
| IAmNotThatGuy | then find mplayer devs and ask for the help regarding this silverarrow | 07:18 |
| IAmNotThatGuy | hyperair: remove the ',' in the topic after "Welcome to lubuntu" | 07:19 |
| * IAmNotThatGuy gives work to hyperair | 07:20 | |
| hyperair | um what ,? | 07:21 |
| IAmNotThatGuy | hyperair: in priv msg | 07:21 |
| hyperair | IAmNotThatGuy: i don't see any priv msg.. | 07:21 |
| silverarrow | if I install smplayer from package manger will it somehow affect default gnome mplayer? | 07:22 |
| IAmNotThatGuy | hyperair: PM | 07:22 |
| hyperair | okay, just saw it | 07:22 |
| IAmNotThatGuy | silverarrow: No | 07:22 |
| IAmNotThatGuy | you should be careful only at the time of removal | 07:22 |
| silverarrow | that could potentially muck up the experiment | 07:23 |
| * IAmNotThatGuy didn't do that hyperair :P | 07:25 | |
| * hyperair didn't do that to IAmNotThatGuy | 07:26 | |
| IAmNotThatGuy | lol | 07:26 |
| IAmNotThatGuy | hyperair: -offtopic | 07:28 |
| silverarrow | it is a chore to address bugs | 07:59 |
| CARCASS | hi people, I need suggestion about synaptic in lubuntu 11.04: I can't remove packages marked as "not installed, residual config". I mark them to completely remove, but the apply button is not active. | 08:08 |
| silverarrow | hi | 08:08 |
| silverarrow | who asked me to install gecko? | 08:09 |
| silverarrow | I have installed two packages from suggested packages. I have mucked up some functions | 08:09 |
| silverarrow | is it easy to revert to previous state? | 08:10 |
| silverarrow | I regret it big time | 08:10 |
| bioterror | Wed02:42*<micahg> silverarrow: I'd suggest just installing gecko-mediaplayer from -proposed and then removing it if your risk tolerance is low | 08:11 |
| bioterror | Wed02:43*<micahg> silverarrow: removing -proposed, not gecko-mediaplyer | 08:11 |
| silverarrow | I installed lib6 something | 08:11 |
| silverarrow | stupid me | 08:12 |
| silverarrow | it did mess up | 08:13 |
| silverarrow | the gecko package | 08:13 |
| silverarrow | if I run package manager will it detect and remove them? | 08:14 |
| silverarrow | I could shoot my self in the foot | 08:17 |
| silverarrow | i cannot stream online tv | 08:17 |
| bioterror | :( | 08:18 |
| silverarrow | a bit stupid too | 08:20 |
| silverarrow | what was I thinking the package would be good for? | 08:20 |
| bioterror | it's a nice thing that my service proviced offers us a XBMC plugin to watch stored tv shows from their clould service | 08:20 |
| silverarrow | freeze issues are more than enough | 08:21 |
| bioterror | I can just WoL my HTPC, start the plugin and choose what I've stored and watch it | 08:21 |
| bioterror | so maybe you should consider a better service for your online tv? | 08:22 |
| silverarrow | I was rather happy with gnome mplayer gecko and chromium, is streamed online tv, direct too | 08:22 |
| silverarrow | yes maybe | 08:22 |
| bioterror | we have one channel that has webpage full of silverlight | 08:22 |
| silverarrow | I have moonlight | 08:23 |
| silverarrow | I have a feeling this is never going to be reversed | 08:23 |
| silverarrow | maybe next time I install lubuntu, | 08:24 |
| silverarrow | when does lubuntu 12 come? | 08:24 |
| silverarrow | or 11.10, what ever they call it | 08:24 |
| Unit193 | Think about that, it's based on release date (version numbers) | 08:27 |
| silverarrow | Unit193, thanks, obvious really lol | 08:54 |
| silverarrow | I heard rumors there's a release in October | 08:55 |
| silverarrow | I really wish there was a way to reverse newly installed packages | 08:56 |
| meway | why is my desktop showing multiple things open when there is only 1 thing open? (when closing they all close) | 09:57 |
| bioterror | for example? | 09:57 |
| meway | well my time wireless and sound is not in the correct spot (to the right of the screen) and I open xchat and I see multiples going across the bottom | 09:58 |
| bioterror | ah notification area | 09:58 |
| meway | oh that helps xD | 09:59 |
| meway | ty | 09:59 |
| meway | <- feels like a tard :) | 09:59 |
| Unit193 | Try saying /me feels like a tard ;) | 10:03 |

| Jaded- | Is there a special way that I need to install Vlc player on lubuntu compared to ubuntu pure? | 12:56 |
| bioterror | sudo apt-get install vlc | 12:56 |
| micahg | hmm...moonlight in natty also needs testing in natty-proposed, I missed that too... | 14:37 |
| tomeo | Why does the Lubuntu installer create three partitions? | 15:21 |
| tomeo | I get sda1, sda2 and sda5 where sda2 is primary and sda5 is swap | 15:21 |
| tomeo | I dont understand what sda1 is | 15:21 |
| morri | hi guys, I have forcefully downgraded my firefox back to 4 because I didnt like the 5 or 6 browser, but now it appears always in update manager, how do I make it that the update manager ignores firefox? | 15:54 |
| Soojin | morri: inside synaptics you can lock packages | 16:00 |
| Soojin | under Package -> Lock/Force (I have swedish lubuntu so i don't know quite what it says in the english version;) ) | 16:01 |
| morri | cool thanks Soojin | 16:11 |
| silverarrow | is there a way to revert to a previous update? | 17:23 |

| silverarrow | what kind of players and media drivers are default in lubuntu? | 19:17 |
| silverarrow | I am thinking of removing all extras, en reinstall | 19:18 |
| Unit193 | !info lubuntu-core | 19:19 |
| ubot5 | lubuntu-core (source: lubuntu-meta): Lubuntu Desktop environment - minimal installation. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.24 (natty), package size 2 kB, installed size 32 kB (Only available for i386 amd64 powerpc ia64 sparc lpia armel) | 19:19 |
| silverarrow | I have 11.04 | 19:19 |
| silverarrow | I messed up my mediaplayer, some kind of gecko or plugin mess | 19:20 |
| Unit193 | What exactly are you looking for? Sounded like you didn't want default programs | 19:20 |
| silverarrow | oh sorry, I am very happy with default | 19:20 |
| silverarrow | and extras | 19:21 |
| silverarrow | for a while everything worked fairly well | 19:21 |
| silverarrow | I installed two proposed packages yesterday and they messed up online stream tv | 19:21 |
| silverarrow | I don't know if it is repairable | 19:22 |
| silverarrow | I am hoping | 19:22 |
| silverarrow | streaming in mplayer stopped working | 19:23 |
| silverarrow | so, it's really difficult to trace the packages? or latest updates? | 19:23 |
| Unit193 | Ok, disable the repo then open the terminal and type sudo apt-get update and sudo apt-get reinstall {packages messed up} | 19:23 |
| silverarrow | yes, I did disable the proposed stuff | 19:24 |
| silverarrow | can you make sense out of this? http://pastebin.com/uKAHCccu | 19:26 |
| Unit193 | You need to actually secect the package name >.< | 19:27 |
| silverarrow | sudo apt-get reinstall invalid operation | 19:27 |
| silverarrow | definitely a challenge | 19:29 |
| silverarrow | god knows what I have installed | 19:29 |
| silverarrow | he has probably no idea either | 19:29 |
| Unit193 | Oh, wrong program for that :P sudo apt-get uninstall [package] than sudo apt-get install [package] | 19:29 |
| silverarrow | I have to google what packages I installed | 19:31 |
| silverarrow | I followed a guide for medibuntu I think with added gecko/mplayer/and windows media plugins | 19:32 |
| micahg | silverarrow: I forgot to mention that a new moonlight is waiting in natty-proposed as well | 19:49 |
| silverarrow | and how will it work? | 19:57 |
| silverarrow | I'm not shore I even know if can use moolight, when I have mplayer and gecko | 19:57 |
| silverarrow | situation now is that tv streams loads, caches, and play for a second then aborts | 20:00 |
| silverarrow | I'm shore something is interfering with the main driver or plugin | 20:00 |
| silverarrow | it looks like moonlight mozilla plugin should stream tv | 20:02 |
| silverarrow | i've had enough for today I think | 20:03 |
| silverarrow | I'm not getting any where | 20:03 |
| silverarrow | I suspect I have double up some kind of plugin or driver and the interfere | 20:04 |
| silverarrow | micahg, the gecko package messed up | 20:07 |
| micahg | with Firefox 6? | 20:07 |
| silverarrow | no, with chromium, but it didn't work in firefox 6 either, or before | 20:08 |
| silverarrow | in chromium I could stream tv with mplayer fine | 20:08 |
| silverarrow | firefox never did | 20:08 |
| silverarrow | I have no good explanation for it | 20:09 |
| silverarrow | micahg, firefox is the preferred browser these days? | 20:19 |
| silverarrow | I tried to stick with chromium, because it was default | 20:19 |
| micahg | silverarrow: depends in which derivative | 20:20 |
| micahg | you're free to use whatever you like, I happen to be the one pushing through updates in the stable releases for both Firefox and Chromium | 20:20 |
| silverarrow | it's all right, I installed Firefox because of the flash video replacer | 20:21 |
| silverarrow | work well | 20:22 |
| silverarrow | but I lost tv stream | 20:22 |
| silverarrow | I am sure it is a minor issue | 20:23 |
| silverarrow | like double up drivers, but I cannot find any clue to how or where they should be lined up | 20:24 |

| jeffcutsinger | Is there something special I need to do to use a different wm? I changed the setting in lxsession-edit, and it's still using openbox. | 22:12 |
| jeffcutsinger | For whatever reason, lxsession-edit was writing its configuration changes to the LXDE session instead of the Lubuntu session. Copying directory over made it work. | 23:23 |
| silverarrow | I have discovered where the annoying popups come from | 23:46 |
