| leo | yes lubuntu | 00:13 |
| leo | no... i have downloaded lubuntu dont want to download another iso | 00:13 |
| wxl | uh | 00:15 |
| wxl | go look up medibuntu | 00:15 |
| wxl | it is NOT a distribution | 00:15 |
| wxl | it is a repository of non-free stuff | 00:16 |
| wxl | hahah | 00:55 |

| l057c0d3r | hello everyone, I was wondering if there was a mailing list or rss feed for new enteries into default repositories for the package manager? | 03:54 |
| l057c0d3r | say a new office program or app is added, or new educational apps... | 03:55 |
| holstein | l057c0d3r: there wont be new ones added | 04:03 |
| holstein | think of the repos as being frozen kind of | 04:03 |
| holstein | they get updates.. security updates, to a certain point | 04:03 |
| l057c0d3r | what... | 04:04 |
| holstein | l057c0d3r: like, ubuntu 10.04 for example | 04:04 |
| holstein | it doesnt get firefox 8 or whatever they are up to | 04:04 |
| l057c0d3r | thats ok dont use firefox | 04:04 |
| holstein | it just gets the latest 3.x or whatever it was | 04:04 |
| holstein | l057c0d3r: its just an example | 04:04 |
| holstein | if a new browser comes out, it doesnt get added to 10.04 | 04:05 |
| holstein | OR 11.10 for that matter | 04:05 |
| holstein | it would be added in for 12.04 | 04:05 |
| holstein | more likely, it would be added into debian upstream (AFAIK) and trickle in that way | 04:05 |
| l057c0d3r | i see | 04:05 |
| l057c0d3r | thanks for that information | 04:06 |
| phillw | holstein: as lubuntu uses Chromium as the default browser, I am not really suprised that it does not pick up FFox updates? | 04:06 |
| l057c0d3r | chromium isnt bad | 04:06 |
| holstein | its just an example | 04:06 |
| l057c0d3r | i like developer tools.. | 04:06 |
| holstein | all of the apps are kind of frozen | 04:06 |
| holstein | new apps dont get added in to 11.10 | 04:06 |
| l057c0d3r | however im disipointed in the adblock addon. works better on firefox | 04:06 |
| l057c0d3r | anyway thanks for the information | 04:07 |
| holstein | as the software center matures, there will be more commercial apps that would be added on | 04:07 |
| phillw | There has been a delay in backporting things to 10.04 some of pcmanfm is not happy, it is on his list of things to do. | 04:07 |
| l057c0d3r | new to this flavor of linux... moved from gentoo fluxbox | 04:07 |
| holstein | also, lubuntu = ubuntu | 04:08 |
| holstein | the same repos | 04:08 |
| l057c0d3r | a lot different when it comes to installing stuff. and a lot faster... | 04:09 |
| holstein | so, if something gets an upgrade, its upgraded there for everything | 04:09 |
| phillw | lubuntu chooses its default programmes carefully, whilst you are free to add any others you want - you need to keep them updated, lubuntu will only update the standard ones. | 04:09 |
| holstein | lubuntu will update the packages you have installed | 04:09 |
| holstein | the package manger will | 04:09 |
| l057c0d3r | u sure they use the same repos.. because there is a game on ubuntu that cost 3$ that i cant find anywhere on lubuntu in software manager :-p | 04:09 |
| holstein | if you install firefox, and it gets rev'd, it gets it just like buntu | 04:10 |
| l057c0d3r | what is that app.. | 04:10 |
| holstein | l057c0d3r: take a look | 04:10 |
| holstein | open up your sources and look for secret.lubuntu.source | 04:10 |
| holstein | i dont see that | 04:10 |
| holstein | i see just buntu ones | 04:10 |
| Unit193 | The game on Ubuntu that costs is in the software center, that has pay for software, Lubuntu doesn't have that software center | 04:11 |
| holstein | everything is open... dont take anyones word for it... open it up and take a look around :) | 04:11 |
| l057c0d3r | is it possible to install it? | 04:11 |
| holstein | yeah, its in the repos ;) | 04:11 |
| Unit193 | Exactly | 04:11 |
| l057c0d3r | k thanks | 04:11 |
| phillw | l057c0d3r: we do not currently have the 'paid for apps' that ubuntu has. the overhead for even running that as a search breaks the rules of memory / cpu usage. If you want the full Ubuntu software center, simply install ubuntu? | 04:11 |
| holstein | keep in mind that lubuntu has chosen this particular package set for speed though | 04:12 |
| l057c0d3r | i like the light interface and how it runs | 04:12 |
| holstein | so, if you add a lot of things from main normal buntu, you can bog it back down | 04:12 |
| l057c0d3r | thats why i have lubuntu | 04:12 |
| l057c0d3r | and my games run better / other apps because of less resources being used :-) | 04:12 |
| phillw | holstein: indeed | 04:12 |
| holstein | would the software center bog it down? i dont think so | 04:13 |
| Unit193 | Software center isn't lightweight | 04:13 |
| l057c0d3r | right but its not running all the time | 04:13 |
| holstein | yeah, but its not running in the background right? | 04:13 |
| Unit193 | Correct | 04:13 |
| phillw | holstein: it has taken a lot of tweaks just to get a lubuntu version. | 04:13 |
| l057c0d3r | thats all that matters to me | 04:13 |
| l057c0d3r | thanks | 04:13 |
| holstein | phillw: i bet, its nice and light, and slick too :) | 04:14 |
| l057c0d3r | so i could use it to download the game.. then play it with my less resource hungry lubuntu | 04:14 |
| holstein | l057c0d3r: correct | 04:14 |
| l057c0d3r | and sorry to say this but on my sisters top end lappy ubuntu dashboard lags up terrible | 04:14 |
| l057c0d3r | everything else is lightning fast | 04:14 |
| holstein | ubuntu 22:57 < jmcantrell> what are the various apps in xfce built with? | 04:14 |
| l057c0d3r | but items in the dashboard take forever to show up | 04:14 |
| holstein | opps | 04:14 |
| holstein | l057c0d3r: what dashboard? | 04:15 |
| holstein | unity? | 04:15 |
| l057c0d3r | yeah | 04:15 |
| l057c0d3r | thats why i have lubuntu | 04:15 |
| holstein | unity 2d is pretty light actually | 04:15 |
| l057c0d3r | nothing but problems with unity on every system i've tried it on | 04:15 |
| holstein | eh, im not going to use it, but its tested ok for me | 04:15 |
| l057c0d3r | right it test fine | 04:16 |
| l057c0d3r | but you will notice on startup sometimes it takes 5 to 8 min before all menu items in its dashboard show up.. even on top end systems.. | 04:16 |
| l057c0d3r | now on a desktop you may not notice as much because you don't restart near as often | 04:16 |
| l057c0d3r | but anyway enough babling | 04:17 |
| phillw | if you guys & gals just want to have a chat about things, please use the #lubuntu-offtopic area. It is not logged like here & it's a great channel to chill out on & discuss things on instead of the logged support channel :) | 04:17 |
| l057c0d3r | thanks for the info and take it easy peeps | 04:17 |
| Unit193 | Have a great night | 04:17 |

| Osmodivs | Hello. I am trying to Installa driver for my AcerONE D250 Netbook. The problem is, in the tutorial says I need to input this to know my model: lspci -vnn 14e4 But nothing happens, Is this the right way to know my Wifi model? | 21:50 |
| Unit193 | You could just run lspci to get the model number | 21:56 |
| Osmodivs | I am trying to find out whether a PCI device is supported by the b43 or b43legacy drivers, | 21:59 |
| Osmodivs | But I guess it is, since just typing: lspci -vv tells me that "Kernel driver in uses: b43-pci-bridge" | 22:00 |
| Unit193 | You were looking for the command lspci -vvnn | grep 14e4 (You missed the grep) | 22:00 |
| Osmodivs | Ah, well, I was using it like this: lspci -vvnn grep | 14e4 | 22:01 |
| Unit193 | Heh, yeah. You need to pipe it into grep ;) | 22:01 |
| Osmodivs | Unit193: Thx | 22:02 |
| Unit193 | Sure, got what you need? | 22:03 |
| Osmodivs | Yep | 22:03 |
| Osmodivs | Now lets see if I can compile a driver :D | 22:03 |
| Osmodivs_ | Is there a way to put a gcc compiler by default in Lubuntu? I was trying to install a wifi firmware and asked me for a "make", do I downloaded "make" and did make on the firmware, but now i get a "no acceptable C compiler found in $PATH" | 22:51 |
| Osmodivs_ | Man! | 22:51 |
| Osmodivs_ | This is outraegous | 22:51 |
| Osmodivs_ | or whatever you spell that | 22:52 |
| Osmodivs_ | Anywho... | 22:52 |
| wxl | now that's just weird | 22:58 |
| wxl | Osmodivs_ i've got make and gcc and pretty much have a default install that's never run on wifi | 22:59 |
| wxl | i don't thinki've ever had a reason to have make or gcc installed | 22:59 |
| wxl | and yet i have both | 22:59 |
| Osmodivs_ | Well, my verion of Lubuntu wants me to install such packages | 22:59 |
| wxl | what version? | 23:00 |
| wxl | and how are you installing this wifi stuff? | 23:00 |
| Osmodivs_ | 11.10 32bits | 23:00 |
| wxl | apt-get? | 23:00 |
| Osmodivs_ | Well, I have an Acer ONE D250, so they come with this Broadcom wifi and I need a firmware | 23:01 |
| wxl | so apt-get install firmware-b43-installer or whatever it is? | 23:01 |
| Osmodivs_ | The thing is, I do not have an ethernet cable, So i guess thas the only choice | 23:01 |
| wxl | oh gawd | 23:01 |
| wxl | so how did you download make??? | 23:02 |
| Osmodivs_ | I was trying to do it with .tarballs but I got this C compiler problem | 23:02 |
| wxl | ok here's my totally not lazy absolutely serious best thing for you solution: | 23:02 |
| wxl | (ready?) | 23:02 |
| wxl | go buy an ethernet cable | 23:02 |
| Osmodivs_ | I downloaded make with my other PC, wich only has WiFi | 23:02 |
| wxl | it will be more of a pain in the butt to do it without the internet than it will with | 23:02 |
| Osmodivs_ | Yeah, I guess that's the only solution. CABLE | 23:03 |
| wxl | even if it takes you all day to go make the money for and buy an ethernet cable | 23:03 |
| wxl | other option: resolve ALL the dependencies yourself | 23:03 |
| Osmodivs_ | I 'll just go to a cyber-cafè | 23:03 |
| wxl | manually | 23:03 |
| Osmodivs_ | Nah | 23:03 |
| Osmodivs_ | there must be like 250 of those dependecies | 23:03 |
| Osmodivs_ | It's pretty much a light Lubuntu | 23:04 |
| wxl | even if there's 10 it's still a pain in the butt | 23:04 |
| wxl | i must say tho | 23:05 |
| wxl | i'm worried about your lack of gcc/make | 23:05 |
| wxl | i seriously think that something must be wrong with the install | 23:05 |
| wxl | which method did you use to install? | 23:05 |
| Osmodivs_ | LiveUSB | 23:06 |
| Osmodivs_ | I checked if the USB was corrupted, and it was not | 23:06 |
| wxl | are you running off the liveusb or did you use a liveusb to install to hd? | 23:06 |
| Osmodivs_ | It is already installed in my Acer ONE NetBook | 23:07 |
| Osmodivs_ | I used a USB | 23:07 |
| wxl | just making sure | 23:07 |
| wxl | i don't see any reaosn why that would be any different | 23:08 |
| wxl | perplexing | 23:08 |
| Osmodivs_ | Wich is strange, because Ubuntu worked "out of the box". Does this means Lubuntu ... you know, scks? | 23:08 |
| wxl | b43 doesn't work out of the box on just about anything | 23:08 |
| Osmodivs_ | Well, Ubuntu did | 23:08 |
| Osmodivs_ | I've had Ubuntu in this machine since 9.04 | 23:09 |
| wxl | then why bother with the change? | 23:09 |
| Osmodivs_ | But decide to change when Unity came | 23:09 |
| Osmodivs_ | and Gnome3 | 23:09 |
| wxl | if that's your only problem just install lubuntu-desktop and get rid of gnome | 23:09 |
| Osmodivs_ | It's anetbook, so Ubuntu is too heavy | 23:09 |
| Osmodivs_ | Well, I decided to do a frsh install of Lubuntu | 23:10 |
| Osmodivs_ | Deleting Gnome stuff kinda broke my system | 23:10 |
| wxl | !purelxde ! Osmodivs_ | 23:11 |
| ubot5 | wxl: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 23:11 |
| wxl | oh sheesh | 23:11 |
| Unit193 | !purelxde | Osmodivs_ | 23:11 |
| ubot5 | Osmodivs_: If you want to remove all !KDE, !GNOME and !XFCE packages and have a default !Lubuntu system follow the instructions here « http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/purelxde » | 23:11 |
| wxl | thx ubot5 | 23:11 |
| wxl | uh | 23:12 |
| wxl | Unit193: | 23:12 |
| Unit193 | Still isn't quite as good as a fresh install | 23:12 |
| Osmodivs_ | Yep, thats the tutorial I followed | 23:12 |
| Unit193 | Sure wxl | 23:12 |
| Osmodivs_ | and it BROKE my system | 23:12 |
| Osmodivs_ | not all system are made the same | 23:12 |
