kvarley | When I change my keymap from US to UK using Menu>Preferences>LxKeymap it works but only for the current session. When I reboot it clears the setting, how can I change it permenantly? | 08:28 |
kinsk | hi | 13:32 |
kinsk | What are the memory requirements for lubuntu in order for the system to be perfectly usable ? | 13:33 |
head_victim | kinsk: that depends on how you define perfectly usable and what you want to do with it | 13:36 |
head_victim | What computer are you going to try running it on? | 13:37 |
kinsk | i want to use it in a virtual machine and give it 1gb of ram and 1 processor | 13:37 |
head_victim | That will be plenty to do most things easily | 13:37 |
head_victim | Being a VM though, it's easy to test it out to make sure it actually does what you want. | 13:38 |
kinsk | I'll give it a try. | 13:38 |
head_victim | I find CPUs to be more limiting these days than ram, ram is so cheap and easily upgradeable that it's not usually an issue. | 13:38 |
kinsk | Yes but I'm limited to 4GB unfortunately. | 13:39 |
kinsk | I'm on a notebook BTW. | 13:39 |
head_victim | I used to run it on a 2.4 celeron processor with 1gb ram and Lubuntu was the only thing I'd run on it, nothing else was bearable. | 13:41 |
LinoSP | I want to buy a usb wireless adapter but i dunno if it work in lubuntu | 13:51 |
LinoSP | can u recomend me a specific chipset? | 13:52 |
echoprinter | When playing a music file the media player sounds like a CD skipping. Any suggestions on how to fix this? Google doesn't seem to be much help at the moment. | 14:13 |
holstein | echoprinter: you should have realistic expectations of your hardware... what are the specs? | 14:45 |
holstein | you can always go in a rev the ALSA version one way or the other | 14:45 |
holstein | when i have problems like that, i typically break out a few live CD's to see if i can gain any helpful information | 14:46 |
echoprinter | holstein: Where do I find the specs at? Soundcard worked on ubuntu with no issues so I know I can get it to work. | 14:58 |
holstein | echoprinter: yeah, but the same version of ubuntu? | 15:00 |
holstein | there are different kernels, and different ALSA versions | 15:00 |
echoprinter | holstein: yeah, it worked on 10.04, 10.10, & 11.04. | 15:00 |
holstein | echoprinter: right | 15:01 |
holstein | and now you have 11.10? | 15:01 |
echoprinter | I have 10.10 | 15:01 |
holstein | OK | 15:01 |
holstein | so, 10.10 ubuntu was good, 10.10 lubuntu is bad | 15:01 |
echoprinter | yes. | 15:01 |
holstein | if i were you.... i would get the live version of 11.10, and see if the issue is resolved there, and consider upgrading now | 15:02 |
echoprinter | does 11.04 use all of those resources that ubuntu uses? Ubuntu 11.04 *is* the reason I decided to go with Lubuntu, and besides the audio issue I am very happy with it so far. | 15:03 |
holstein | lubuntu = ubuntu | 15:04 |
holstein | it uses the same repos, has the same access to the same packages | 15:04 |
holstein | the same default kernel | 15:04 |
echoprinter | so it used Unity, right? | 15:04 |
holstein | echoprinter: right | 15:04 |
echoprinter | does it show Lubuntu down? | 15:04 |
holstein | and you can apt get unity in lubuntu for example | 15:04 |
echoprinter | slow, I mean. | 15:05 |
holstein | ? | 15:05 |
holstein | that would in effect change you over to ubuntu from lubuntu | 15:05 |
holstein | with all of the changes in speed/performance/functionality | 15:06 |
holstein | im just pointing out that they are not that different | 15:06 |
holstein | what i usually do, for troubleshooint.. i'll get live CD's.... when i get something working, i'll note the kernel version or ALSA version... whatever packages that might effect performance | 15:07 |
echoprinter | I'll get a Live CD then and try it out. Also, how can I install a new Desktop enviroments if I wanted to use Gnome on 10.10. | 15:08 |
echoprinter | that's the last quetsion. :) | 15:08 |
holstein | you can open whatever pacakge manger you use, and search gnome | 15:08 |
echoprinter | ah...okay. | 15:09 |
holstein | there are also meta-packages | 15:09 |
holstein | ubuntu-desktop | 15:09 |
holstein | lubuntu-destkop | 15:09 |
echoprinter | holstein: thanks, you've been very helpful. | 15:09 |
holstein | echoprinter: anytime... let us know about the audio issue... that should be easy enough when you figure out whats causing the problemm | 15:10 |
echoprinter | ok, I will. | 15:10 |
JohnDoe_71Rus | can lxdm use xdmcp? | 16:03 |
nothingspecial | How do I stop the folders in my $HOME displaying on my desktop? Cheers | 17:28 |
dunedaeen | hi guys | 19:37 |
dunedaeen | i have question about screenlets - they don't seem to work as they should. Btw, congratz for making such good derivate :-) | 19:38 |
dunedaeen | it's lubuntu 11.10 | 19:38 |
dunedaeen | anyways, opacity and temp sensors don't work | 19:39 |
dunedaeen | just wanted to ask is that usual on lxde or? | 19:39 |
dunedaeen | anyone? | 19:41 |
holstein | is it usual for screenlet to not work in LXDE? | 19:41 |
holstein | what screenlets? are they made/designed with LXDE support? | 19:41 |
dunedaeen | yes, not to have opacity | 19:41 |
dunedaeen | uhm.. not sure | 19:42 |
dunedaeen | installed it using synaptic | 19:42 |
holstein | as a general rule, if you want transparency, and whizzbang, dont go for something light | 19:42 |
holstein | can you make it work? sure | 19:42 |
holstein | could be as easy as not having compositing? | 19:43 |
dunedaeen | i'm not into much eye-candy, i just like screenlets | 19:43 |
dunedaeen | you need packet version of screenlets? | 19:44 |
dunedaeen | sec, i have some connection issues.. tnx for help, though :-) now i know i can make it possible | 19:45 |
holstein | not sure... what is 'packet version' ? | 19:46 |
dunedaeen | oh, i ment version of screenlets i have atm | 19:46 |
holstein | i would use the ones in the repos, unless there is an issue with them | 19:47 |
dunedaeen | sry, i'm back | 20:09 |
dunedaeen | yes, now it works ok.. | 20:09 |
dunedaeen | weird | 20:09 |
dunedaeen | tnx, @holstein | 20:09 |
dunedaeen | cheers all :-) | 20:10 |

superkiwi | Hi, I am having trouble debugging with monodevelop in lubuntu 11.10. The error message I get when I do run->run or run->debug is "File name has not been set" (http://dl.dropbox.com/u/13529905/monodevelop-error.txt). Anyone experienced this? | 23:04 |
