[04:11] <wxl> squee! finally unning lubuntu on my powebook
[04:12] <wxl> as you can see my R key is messed up
[04:12] <wxl> powerbook's fault
[04:13] <wxl> something is messed up tho
[04:15] <wxl> unfortunately it's with the meta package too
[09:38] <otacon> Quick question, does Lubuntu support system sound schemes?
[12:25] <crshbndct> hey everyone
[12:25] <bioterror> hi
[12:25] <crshbndct> does anyone know how to run mplayer without video output? i.e. play a video file but only play the audio from it??
[12:26] <crshbndct> i tried using -vo:null (lol) but that didnt work
[12:26] <bioterror> you want to rip the Audio or you just want the audio?
[12:27] <crshbndct> no i want to just play the audio
[12:27] <crshbndct> i figured it will be something like mplayer -vo:null /<path to filename>
[12:28] <bioterror> just a moment
[12:28] <bioterror> I'll investigate a little
[12:28] <crshbndct> thanks :)
[12:29] <crshbndct> i tried reading the man page, but i was beaten
[12:29] <bioterror> I cannot judge anyone for not understanding the man pages
[12:29] <bioterror> just a moment, I'll move to desktop computer, I have mplayer there
[12:31] <crshbndct> i love using mplayer instead of gui media players. but all my 1080p youtube downloaded music videos tend to to pop up and take over my desktop.. would love to just say play them all with no video output .. thanks for the help
[12:32] <bioterror> you got it almost right
[12:32] <bioterror> mplayer -vo null path/to/video.avi
[12:34] <crshbndct> lol so close.. ok i will go try it
[12:34] <crshbndct> OUTSTANDING!!! thanks :)
[12:34] <bioterror> np ;)
[12:35] <crshbndct> now my 50gb music collection (100 songs) will be may easier to use
[12:36] <bioterror> you could take the audio from them
[12:36] <bioterror> and ditch the video
[12:37] <crshbndct> nah i like having the video there too.. great for parties.. i have plenty of space on my hdd's
[12:54] <crshbndct> well mighty impressed with lubuntu so far.. i am a chronic distro hopper, but i dont even need to run my "make linux work on modern hardware" fix with it, which is f***ing rare
[15:06] <leszek> hi
[17:46] <leszek> re
[17:55] <silverarrow> hi
[17:56] <silverarrow> I have burned 11.10
[17:56] <silverarrow> daily
[19:19] <MrChrisDruif> Aloha oukou
[19:30] <MrChrisDruif> Hi guys and girls, I can't seem to get flash working in Lubuntu 11.10
[19:32] <MrChrisDruif> I can't see who's active in Pidgin, but I hope some knowledgeable people will response
[19:38] <draioch> installed lubuntu on machine with integrated intel sound chip, no sound would love to know to find out name of integrated chip and sudo get command how to install it or would alsa work thx
[19:43] <silverarrow> you could open alsamixer and see what it says ?
[19:43] <draioch> k ill try that thx
[19:44] <MrChrisDruif> The apt install from the website of adobe only opens an other chromium window ( xdg-open apt:adobe-flashplugin?channel=$distro-partner )
[19:45] <silverarrow> it should be listed under pci devices in system profiler
[19:45] <silverarrow> draioch,
[19:45] <Unit193> MrChrisDruif: Do you have flashplugin-installer installed?
[19:45] <draioch> o/ silverarrow thx
[19:46] <draioch> was actually looking up to check if alsa installed
[19:46] <silverarrow> in alsamixer you should be able to load different drivers, and check if everything is on
[19:46] <silverarrow> itis
[19:46] <silverarrow> opens in terminal
[19:47] <draioch> yea remember that thx
[19:47] <MrChrisDruif> Unit193: yeah, it's installed
[19:50] <Unit193> MrChrisDruif: Trying in Chromium and you have restarted the browser?
[19:51] <draioch> silverarrow running asla now and playing video file nuting show in alsa level meters or analouge output card is showing as Intel ICH6 with AD1981B at irq 23
[19:51] <draioch> thx
[19:52] <silverarrow> you got sound?
[19:53] <silverarrow> it should be listed under menu-sytem tools- profiler/benchmark -pci dvices too
[19:53] <silverarrow> but really alsamixer is the only place where you can do something
[19:54] <silverarrow> draioch, you have manage to set all relevant parameters on full?
[19:54] <MrChrisDruif> Unit193: it keeps saying that I need to upgrade my flash player
[19:55] <Unit193> What page would this be?
[19:55] <draioch> yea was just looking at that never used alsa before so ill play around for a while and big big thx for the help
[19:55] <MrChrisDruif> Just a regular youtube page
[19:56] <silverarrow> draioch, it is pretty simple: mostly the arrows are used, and on some parameters tab
[19:57] <draioch> yea thx MM must be mute and 00 on channel
[19:57] <silverarrow> it is a bit fickely but you get it right away
[19:57] <silverarrow> yes
[19:57] <silverarrow> and arrow up and down to regulate
[19:57] <draioch> ;)
[19:58] <silverarrow> tab can work as enter on some
[19:58] <draioch> \o/ silverarrow
[19:58] <draioch> channel were muted and levels set to 0
[19:58] <silverarrow> the 3D parameter can be crucial; really cracly sound if it is wrong
[19:58] <silverarrow> crackly
[19:59] <silverarrow> *
[19:59] <draioch> yea im big into sound but mostly hardware not PCs but getting there thx to yourself
[19:59] <Unit193> MrChrisDruif: Installing it on my Oneiric now
[20:01] <MrChrisDruif> Unit193: the link I press on the youtube page to upgrade my flashplayer, it goes to http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/otherversions/ followed by questions that lead to an apt link (which opens an other chromium window instead of Synaptic or LSC)
[20:02] <Unit193> What's   apt-cache policy flashplugin-installer  give you?  What about   dpkg -l |grep flash    ?
[20:05] <MrChrisDruif> What should the first one give?
[20:06] <MrChrisDruif> Second gives: ii  flashplugin-downloader                 10.3.183.10ubuntu5                      Adobe Flash Player plugin downloader, ii  flashplugin-installer                  10.3.183.10ubuntu5                      Adobe Flash Player plugin installer
[20:07] <MrChrisDruif> Installed: 10.3.183.10ubuntu5, Candidate: 10.3.183.10ubuntu5, Version table:  *** 10.3.183.10ubuntu5 0, 500 http://nl.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ oneiric/multiverse i386 Packages, 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status
[20:07] <MrChrisDruif> That gives the first command
[20:12] <Unit193> MrChrisDruif: Can you run updates? I got a newer version when I just now installed it
[20:13] <silverarrow> has anyone installed one of the latest daily versions of 11.10?
[20:13] <MrChrisDruif> I don't have a newer version available
[20:15] <MrChrisDruif> silverarrow: No, beta 2
[20:16] <silverarrow> is it safer or better?
[20:16] <silverarrow> I just burned the daily
[20:16] <silverarrow> and have no more empty cds, so I shall have to stick with it until monday
[20:16] <MrChrisDruif> Don't know, my first steps in Oneiric as well...
[20:16] <Unit193> MrChrisDruif: I just checked that mirror and the main, that seems to be out of date
[20:17] <MrChrisDruif> I have added the lubuntu-desktop ppa if that helps at all?
[20:18] <Unit193> It wouldn't have anything to do with flash though
[20:18] <MrChrisDruif> I would think the same
[20:19] <MrChrisDruif> Should I try this ppa? ppa:sevenmachines/flash
[20:19] <MrChrisDruif> From this page I've found: http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2011/10/adobe-flash-11-released-ready-download/
[20:21] <Unit193> Open this one http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/155/tn_15507.html
[20:24] <MrChrisDruif> I can't seem to see what you mean?
[20:25] <Unit193> Do you see the box as talked about here "If Flash Player is installed on your computer, the following box displays the version of Flash Player installed along with the operating system:" ?
[20:25] <silverarrow> can you send documents stored in lubuntu ext4 to a ntfs external hdd?
[20:27] <MrChrisDruif> No, it says "Get Adobe Flash Player"
[20:28] <MrChrisDruif> http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/839/cpsid_83950.html <= this page also didn't help
[20:31] <MrChrisDruif> Bottom section
[20:35] <Unit193> MrChrisDruif: Do you have it in /usr/lib/flashplugin-installer/libflashplayer.so ?
[20:36] <MrChrisDruif> Folder is present, the .so isn't
[20:37] <Unit193> Ah, there you go.   sudo updatedb; locate flash |grep .so     and tell me where it's located?
[20:40] <MrChrisDruif> /home/chris/.cache/.fr-8LEuZy/libflashplayer.so, /home/chris/.local/share/Trash/files/libflashplayer.2.so, /home/chris/.local/share/Trash/files/libflashplayer.so, /home/chris/.local/share/Trash/files/usr/lib/kde4/kcm_adobe_flash_player.so, /home/chris/.local/share/Trash/files/usr.2/lib/kde4/kcm_adobe_flash_player.so, /home/chris/.local/share/Trash/info/libflashplayer.2.so.trashinfo, /home/chris/.local/share/Trash/info/libflashplayer.so.trashin
[20:41] <MrChrisDruif> So except some trashed ones from trying to download it manually only one in ~/.cache/.fr-8LEuZy/
[20:42] <MrChrisDruif> /home/chris/.cache/.fr-8LEuZy/libflashplayer.so, /usr/lib/libvisual-0.4/morph/morph_flash.so
[20:43] <Unit193> If I were you, I would switch mirrors as that's an older version
[20:44] <MrChrisDruif> How do I switch mirrors? =S
[20:45] <Unit193> !repomirror
[20:46] <MrChrisDruif> First two steps are changed btw
[20:47] <Unit193> Yeah, that's for Ubuntu :P  Open Synaptic
[20:48] <MrChrisDruif> "Menu", "Preferences", and "Software Sources" works in Lubuntu
[20:49] <MrChrisDruif> That "select best server" is nowhere to be found
[20:50] <MrChrisDruif> Found it
[20:50] <MrChrisDruif> They've changed it a lot
[20:53] <MrChrisDruif> I've done that, still no change
[20:53] <Unit193> Did you reload package list? Purge and reinstall after you reload
[20:53] <MrChrisDruif> A lot of "Ign" with the update do
[20:53] <MrChrisDruif> purge?
[20:54] <MrChrisDruif> I've done "sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade -y"
[20:55] <Unit193> Didn't pull it up? sudo apt-get purge flashplugin-downloader flashplugin-installer && sudo apt-get install flashplugin-installer
[20:57] <MrChrisDruif> "The Flash plugin is NOT installed."
[20:59] <MrChrisDruif> http://paste.ubuntu.com/704608/
[21:01] <MrChrisDruif> I would love some Mac-ness right now (being famed for "just working")
[21:02] <Unit193> Did you install downloader?
[21:02] <Unit193> And yes, that would be handy ;)  (To be fair, I haven't had a problem like this :P )
[21:03] <MrChrisDruif> Install downloader?
[21:04] <MrChrisDruif> I've just burned the disk and expected it to work. Got some errors bytheway about the disk ect, but don't know what's has or hasn't been reported
[21:05] <Unit193> Here is a few https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Lubuntu/Developers/TODO#ISO_Testing_Bugs
[21:05] <MrChrisDruif> Unit193: this link also doesn't work from Adobe, but I mentioned that before: xdg-open apt:adobe-flashplugin?channel=$distro-partner
[21:05] <KM0201> does anyone know of a upnp video player for ubuntu?
[21:05] <MrChrisDruif> KM0201: vlc?
[21:05] <KM0201> MrChrisDruif: for some reason, its not working like i thought it would.
[21:05] <MrChrisDruif> I've never tried to make upnp work
[21:06] <KM0201> MrChrisDruif: i can log in to mediatomb, finda movie, copy the URL, and paste it into VLC, and it plays fine
[21:06] <KM0201> but i'd like it to be able to show me what is available (kinda like rythmbox does for music)
[21:06] <KM0201> i've googled this like crazy w/ no luck
[21:06] <MrChrisDruif> (Never had a setup to test upnp in the first place)
[21:06] <Unit193> MrChrisDruif: Could always take a look at this http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/flash
[21:08] <MrChrisDruif> Unit193: That APT for 9.04+ doesn't open ANY software manager, just an other chromium window
[21:08] <KM0201> dpkg?
[21:09] <MrChrisDruif> Differences between Gnome and LXDE, because I've found similar tutorials online. Most of which were related to 11.10 even because I searched for that
[21:10] <Unit193> MrChrisDruif: Alright, I'll now point  you to #ubuntu+1
[21:10] <MrChrisDruif> And if I'd download the tar.gz and move the .so to the before mentioned folder manually?
[21:11] <MrChrisDruif> They'll also have their hands in their hair because it's for LXDE instead of GNOME
[21:13] <Unit193> I don't know what to tell you, worked fine first try, but it's causing all sorts of weird things for you
[21:13] <MrChrisDruif> FML
[21:13] <MrChrisDruif> I'll just try that =)
[21:21] <MrChrisDruif> Unit193: solved
[21:21] <Unit193> Figures....
[21:22] <Unit193> What'd I miss?
[21:25] <MrChrisDruif> Unit193: when I first searched for "adobe" in synaptic I didn't find "adobe-flashplugin" nor "adobe-flash-properties-gtk", now I did find the latter, which also installed the first and removed flashplugin-installer
[21:28] <silverarrow> is the launch next week? for 11.10?
[21:29] <MrChrisDruif> Yup, 13th
[21:29] <silverarrow> cool
[21:31] <MrChrisDruif> Anyhow, I'm off to install the Beta 2 at home aswell
[21:32] <MrChrisDruif> (This was a laptop from my parents =P )
[22:24] <haemogoblin> hey there
[22:25] <haemogoblin> i'm seeking help with my Lubuntu install
[22:25] <haemogoblin> :)
[22:25] <haemogoblin> if anyone has a spare moment
[22:32] <stlsaint> haemogoblin: sup
[22:35] <haemogoblin>  there
[22:35] <haemogoblin> hi even
[22:35] <haemogoblin> :)
[22:35] <haemogoblin> i've just installed Lubuntu on a intel core duo 1.66 mini ITX board
[22:35] <haemogoblin> i can't seem the get cpufreq to work
[22:36] <haemogoblin> my linux knowledge isn't good enough to solve the problem, so thought i'd come on here and ask an expert :)
[22:37] <stlsaint> cpufreq? what do you mean?
[22:37] <haemogoblin> I'm after some sort of cpu throttle
[22:38] <haemogoblin> so i can put the CPU to ondemand ect
[22:38] <haemogoblin> like i have in ubuntu
[22:38] <stlsaint> the two should work the same? what seems to be the issue
[22:39] <haemogoblin> if i try to add the CPUfreq plugin for the system tray
[22:39] <haemogoblin> it says frequency 0 mhz
[22:40] <haemogoblin> governor: nill
[22:40] <haemogoblin> null - sorry
[22:40] <haemogoblin> The plugin is called CPUfreq frontend
[22:40] <stlsaint> aye
[22:41] <stlsaint> have you installed cpufreqd?
[22:41] <haemogoblin> one sec, i think so..but i'll check..i've been fiddling for over an hour trying various things :)
[22:42] <haemogoblin>  ah right it was on, but i was trying powernowd
[22:42] <haemogoblin> just reinstalling
[22:43] <haemogoblin>  i have had it installed, but wasn't having any success
[22:43] <stlsaint> haemogoblin: what does: sudo powernowd
[22:44] <stlsaint> give you
[22:44] <haemogoblin> basically i'm just wanting a means to throttle back my CPU fan as it's going full speed and it's really noisy
[22:44] <haemogoblin> well synaptic package manager has just removed it and installed cpufreqd, so dont think i'll get anything
[22:44] <stlsaint> aye ok
[22:45] <stlsaint> well if your fan is runnign high that means your processors are running hot. what resource intensive process do you have running?
[22:45] <haemogoblin> yep, tried it and unknown command
[22:45] <haemogoblin> nothing..
[22:45] <haemogoblin> it's been running full blast since boot up
[22:45] <stlsaint> well thats a bigger problem than just setting your processors
[22:46] <stlsaint> are your cpu's hot?
[22:46] <stlsaint> and is your system on carpet or a blanket?
[22:46] <haemogoblin> 40c
[22:47] <haemogoblin> according to the sysinfo/sensors
[22:49] <haemogoblin> the one thing that does work, is the cpu monitor and that's not really spiking
[22:50] <haemogoblin> 25% - i have a youtube movie running
[22:50] <stlsaint> ok so you want to set the cpufreq lower manually?
[22:51] <stlsaint> better yet here have a look here for better learning:
[22:51] <stlsaint> http://embraceubuntu.com/2005/11/04/enabling-cpu-frequency-scaling/
[22:53] <haemogoblin> problem
[22:53] <haemogoblin> I use the CPU Frequency Scaling Monitor on my panel to see the speed of my CPU.
[22:54] <haemogoblin> i dont even have this
[22:54] <haemogoblin> hence why i am here
[22:54] <haemogoblin> :/
[22:55] <haemogoblin> As i said, it says frequency 0mhz
[22:56] <stlsaint> haemogoblin: aye, right. ok so right clicking and selecting the cpufreq frontend gives you no applet?
[22:56] <haemogoblin> no
[22:57] <haemogoblin> just the normal taskbar menu, add/remove panel, ect
[22:59] <haemogoblin> i'm no expert with the terminal but i believe this might be a problem
[22:59] <haemogoblin>  /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq
[22:59] <haemogoblin> apparently this doesn't exist
[22:59] <haemogoblin> :/
[23:00] <stlsaint> its under: /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpufreq
[23:01] <stlsaint> haemogoblin: actually look under /sys/devices/system/cpu
[23:01] <haemogoblin> its an empty folder
[23:01] <stlsaint> haemogoblin: oh dear
[23:02] <haemogoblin> whats that mean?
[23:02] <haemogoblin> :/
[23:02] <stlsaint> haemogoblin: what release are you running?
[23:02] <haemogoblin> it's the lubuntu-alternative iso
[23:03] <stlsaint> i mean 11.04...10.04 or....
[23:03] <haemogoblin> 10.10
[23:04] <haemogoblin> system summery has be a bit confused as it boots with the lubuntu splash screen but system summery says ubuntu 10.10..i know it's based on ubuntu..
[23:06] <stlsaint> in terminal run: cat /etc/issue
[23:07] <haemogoblin> ok
[23:07] <stlsaint> what does it show
[23:07] <haemogoblin> no such file or directory
[23:07] <stlsaint> O_O
[23:08] <stlsaint> you sure you ran it just like that:
[23:08] <stlsaint> cat /etc/issue
[23:08] <haemogoblin> sorry
[23:08] <haemogoblin> typo
[23:08] <haemogoblin> lol
[23:08] <haemogoblin> Ubuntu 10.10 \n \l
[23:09] <stlsaint> ok im on 11.04 but i dont think there is much difference in the two, i would have to say possibly you need to reconfigure lxdm
[23:11] <haemogoblin> how do i do that?
[23:11] <stlsaint> one sec please
[23:12] <haemogoblin> np :)
[23:17] <stlsaint> haemogoblin: seems that the conventional dpkg-reconfigure lxdm does nothing really
[23:19] <haemogoblin> i just tried that and apparently i need to be as root
[23:19] <stlsaint> yea you gotta put sudo in the beginning
[23:20] <haemogoblin> hmm that didn't do anything lol
[23:20] <stlsaint> yea
[23:21] <haemogoblin> so is it lubuntu?
[23:21] <stlsaint> i highly suggest putting your issue on the lubuntu mailing list
[23:21] <haemogoblin> ok
[23:21] <stlsaint> many more eyes will see it including the lubuntu developers
[23:21] <haemogoblin> where do i find that?
[23:21] <haemogoblin> thanks
[23:21] <haemogoblin> :D
[23:22] <haemogoblin> If all else fails i can see ubuntu going on..but i was limited with hd space
[23:22] <haemogoblin> i'm using a 4gb microdrive
[23:22] <stlsaint> yea lubuntu will be your best bet over ubuntu in your case
[23:22] <stlsaint> lubuntu-desktop@lists.launchpad.net
[23:22] <stlsaint> send email there
[23:23] <haemogoblin> Cheers
[23:24] <haemogoblin> how will i know if i get a reply?
[23:24] <haemogoblin> will i be contacted directly?
[23:24] <stlsaint> no, in the email ask personnel to CC you since you are not subscribed to the list
[23:24] <stlsaint> if something comes and i see you were not cc'ed on it i will shoot it your way
[23:25] <haemogoblin> thanks
[23:26] <haemogoblin> ive since i used that powernowd, my keyboard has been acting laggy
[23:26] <haemogoblin> asked me if i wanted to enable a power saving option on the usb and it's actually become a pain
[23:27] <haemogoblin> as i dont know how to undo what it's done.
[23:30] <stlsaint> remove what you installed and put powernod back on
[23:33] <haemogoblin> right
[23:33] <haemogoblin> email sent :)
[23:37] <stlsaint> probably needs to be moderated before it hits
