kiruahi04:31
kiruais lubuntu better than xubuntu ?04:31
holsteinlol04:31
holsteinthats an opinion... if you would like to talk facts, i can04:31
kiruaif xubuntu lags and is slow on live cd, its most certainly going to lag once installed right ?04:37
holsteini think its safe to assume that *any* os will run slower from CD04:37
holsteinand faster when installed04:37
Unit193What are your system specs?04:38
holsteinany modern system should run lubuntu or xubuntu with no trouble04:39
* LubuntuPowered is running on a 11+ year old system05:41
bioterrorkirua, from my point of view it is, becouse I know how to configure Openbox ;)05:46

JohnDoe_71Rushttp://pastebin.com/7scSuBH3 xsession-errors lxdm06:01
JohnDoe_71Rushow to fix it?06:01
bioterroryour system is really mixed up06:04
bioterrorlubuntu wants to use xfce4-power-manager, you're using gnome-power-manager06:04
bioterrorif that's 11.1006:04
JohnDoe_71Rusyesterday change gnome-power-manager06:06
JohnDoe_71Rususe 10.0406:06
bioterror10.04, isnt that old? :)06:06
JohnDoe_71Rusit is lts06:06
bioterroris your computer i586?06:06
bioterrorJohnDoe_71Rus, wakeup!06:09
JohnDoe_71RusP4 2.40GHz06:09
bioterrorthen it's not lts for you06:09
bioterror:)06:09
JohnDoe_71Ruswhy?06:09
bioterrorthere's really no idea think that lubuntu 10.04 is LTS, devs have only promised to support it becouse of i586 support. and that's only becouse those are old computers06:10
bioterrorbut as your computer is 2005 >>, you can easily run the latest06:10
bioterrorand as LXDE is rather new and under heavy development, you should run "the latest"06:11
Unit193But it's not recommended to run Pangolin yet06:11
JohnDoe_71Rushm... update too much06:12
bioterrorand 10.04 is freakin' ugly06:12
pangolinyeah, don't run me.06:12
JohnDoe_71Rus:)06:12
bioterrorpangolin, dont you worry, he only ruins you06:12
bioterrorJohnDoe_71Rus, give it a shot for 11.10 ;)06:13
pangolinbioterror: you mean to say it can get worse!06:13
JohnDoe_71Rusbioterror: if ubuntu 10.04 lts then ubuntu-minimal lts too? what different what kind de use ?06:13
bioterrorJohnDoe_71Rus, I dunno if you've been reading mailing list, but the lubuntu 12.04 wont be LTS neither from the lubuntu point of view06:14
Unit193I must ping pangolin quite a lot...06:15
bioterrorUnit193, what's that feeling in your chest? :)06:16
Unit193I know it's hair ON the chest...06:16
* bioterror has no hair on chest06:16
bioterrorUnit193, but you can still have moustaches! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q24pIUfPCUI06:17
bioterrorI'm growing atm.06:17
IAmNotThatGuyUnit193, bioterror wrong channel :P06:18
Unit193No kidding06:18
bioterrorno skidding, use the brakes!06:23
bioterrorJohnDoe_71Rus, will you give a shot for the 11.10?-)06:24
bioterrorwish I could leech it and dd if=lubuntu-11.10.iso of=/dev/sdb for you ;)06:24

psychx-Lubuntu is awesome!!22:54
psychx-I am having problems with activating my ATI drivers. I have had this problem on both Ubuntu and Lubuntu. The driver I am trying to activate is called "ATI/AMD Proprietary FGLRX graphics driver (post-release updates)". Can someone help me?23:18
holsteinpsychx-: the process will be the same for *buntu in general23:21
psychx-The error I get is "Sorry, installation of this driver failed. Please have a look at the log file for details: /var/log/jockey.log" - My jockey.log file is pasted here: http://pastebin.com/UD1AuFJn23:21
holsteincheck this out https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BinaryDriverHowto/ATI23:21
psychx-holstein: When I go to the ATI website to enter my graphics card details, any linux distro is not an option. Should I just check one of the Windows ones?23:23
holsteinpsychx-: no23:24
holsteinyou dont need a driver for windows23:24
holsteinyou should reference that wiki like i dropped earlier and let us konw if you have questions :)23:24
psychx-Ok, then the instructions do not help me. It states to enter my card information.23:24
psychx-I am.23:24
psychx-It references me to this website: http://support.amd.com/us/gpudownload/Pages/index.aspx23:25
psychx-Take a look, you will see it asks for operating system details.23:25
holsteini would just get the driver23:25
holsteinmove on to the next part23:25
psychx-ok23:25
psychx-Well the problem is, at the next part, it is telling me to do exactly as I have done - which is where I am at now, with an error message stating to see the log file.23:26
psychx-I go to Additional Drivers in Lubuntu. Then it finds the driver, and I hit activate. Then it gives me the error message.23:27
holsteinpsychx-: ? im reading errors about an nvidia driver?23:28
wxlscroll down holstein23:28

wxlthat's interesting23:28
wxli'm not trying to take over per se, just trying to help23:28
wxland i don't necessarily know what the issue is there either23:29
psychx-I JUST installed Lubuntu, the only other things I have done is do an update, and install Smuxi.23:29
wxldid you have synaptic or apt running at the time psychx- ?23:29
holsteinloolks like it should be easy though23:29
holsteindpkg: error: dpkg status database is locked by another process23:29
psychx-lemme check23:29
wxlseems subsequent errors relate to things not being installed which points back at the dpkg error23:29
holsteinor the update manager or something else doing pacakge managerment23:29
