[00:05] whats up lubuntu users [00:06] hey === Folklore2 is now known as Folklore === Folklore2 is now known as Folklore [03:39] how do i extract a the tor bundle and run it, for some reason it wasnt in the repo so i downloaded [03:41] !tor | miento [03:41] miento: Tor is a program to route connections through several servers for anonymity. It is in Ubuntu's repositories, but the Tor Project recommends using their Tor packages due to past issues with Ubuntu's. For setup info, see option (2) of https://www.torproject.org/docs/debian.html.en | To use Tor on freenode, see !tor-sasl [04:37] i need to reset the task bar. how? [05:05] brb, need to unpack the car [05:05] i need to reset the task bar. how? [05:06] In terminal: mv .config/lxpanel .config/lxpanelll && lxpanelctl restart [05:14] thx so much [05:54] is there a way to change the username without messing things up? [05:54] rename the username? [07:22] hello [07:22] so what are the requirements to run lubuntu from usb? [07:29] hello? [07:29] phillw: how to we handle bugs/feature-requests for the docu? LP? Mailinglist? [07:29] ionit: live-system or persistent installation? [07:29] live-system [07:30] I mean that live - boot thingy [07:30] ionit: 256mb ram, around 600mhz (i think less will also work) [07:30] 256MB ram check, 1.6GHz check [07:30] and? [07:30] thats all for a live-session [07:31] A bootable USB and BIOS that supports it [07:31] ah, yes :) [07:31] yes [07:31] but for persistent? [07:32] I have a pentium 3 600MHz with 128MB RAM walking around [07:32] ionit: something arround 2-3GB [07:32] no HDD isn't the problem [07:32] the ram is [07:32] how much for that? [07:32] ionit: lubuntu can run on 128mb ram systems but you have to use the alternate/minimal-iso instead of the gui-installer [07:33] so only shell for me? no x love? [07:33] ionit: no you can use the lxde desktop of course [07:33] then? [07:33] ionit: but the normal ubuntu-installer with the gui needs 256mb ram [07:33] oh [07:33] I see [07:33] ionit: because of that use the minimal-iso, then you can install your lxde system and use it with your 128mb machine [07:34] ionit: maybe the 11.10 lubuntu-disc will also work in 128mb, i never tested that but some blog-entrys say that the installer needs 256m [07:34] sweet [07:36] thankiez === smile4ever is now known as smile [09:15] Hello all, could I get some help installing Lubuntu? [09:17] press couple of times next and add some information about yourself [09:17] but what's the problem, PEruvianNewbie [09:21] I-m stuck on the "Wireless" step. I am connected to the WLAN (that's how I]m typing this), but the installer won't activate the "Continue" button [09:21] and I can't continue when selecting "I don't want to connect right now" either [09:36] hi [09:38] PEruvianNewbie, sounds weird [09:39] but you dont need wlan for installing. if you just dont choose updates during installation [09:40] Yeah, I chose only the third party software, no updates, but now it won't even let me go back and change that. I'll start over and see how it goes [09:42] hello, have someone installed lubuntu on a amd fusion ? [09:45] no, sorry [09:45] thanks [11:12] doei :) [11:28] Is there a way to install two versions of same package (i.e. firefox)?

[16:33] saml: im not in front of LXDE right now, but search around for something with printers in the name [16:35] how to install .tar.bz file in lubuntu 11.10? [16:35] shayek: i would unzip it, and see if there is a read.me [16:36] it really depends on what it is... i would also look around in the repos for the app, and maybe a PPA [16:38] not app, i think its source file. [16:39] shayek: right.. there should be a readme on how to install whatever it is [16:43] it says compile and install......no other instruction......:( [16:43] shayek: cool... you'll just have to unzip, and try it then... i would look for the application/driver/source, whatever it is in the repos, or via PPA [16:44] feel free and elaborate, maybe someone will have some suggestions [16:45] i think its very complicated.......i'm absolute newbie in lubuntu :( [16:46] shayek: you sould start like this.. "i am installing X from the website Y to try and accomplish Z" [16:52] shayek: i hate .tar.bz2's too :p [16:53] isn't there any app or installer to install tar.bz source file? [16:54] shayek: no, you need to do it yourself :( [16:54] shayek: there are tools you use, but whatever you have could be totally unique [16:55] creating an 'easy button' would be challening [16:55] shakey: what you are you trying to install? [16:56] ruby :P [17:20] nothingspecial: hi :) [17:20] hi smile [17:20] nothingspecial: lubuntu running fine? :) [17:21] sure, on my desktop and netbook :) [17:21] and my wife's netbook [17:27] nothingspecial: fine! :) [17:27] Thanks for asking smile :) [17:28] nothingspecial: you're welcome [17:29] wb smile [17:30] nothingspecial: thank you very much :) [17:30] the addon did work actually [17:30] and it's still doing it today :p [17:45] what is the image viewer for lubuntu? it seems i've deleted it [17:51] what is the image viewer for lubuntu? it seems i've deleted it [17:52] sorry not sure [17:54] gpicview [17:55] Ahmuck: solved? [17:56] yep [17:58] ok, great :) [18:18] hey smile, iceroot [18:18] hi AmberJ :DD [18:18] :DD [18:18] Sorry...I was afk...had to visit someone at hospital [18:18] iceroot, well, I'll like to install firefox 5 alongside firefox 9 (current version in repos) [18:19] I want firefox 5 because that's the what moonlight (silverlight for linux) supports [18:21] And, I want silverlight because Stanford's online courses support Silverlight based player which can save videos for watching later (without the need to REstream) [18:22] The flash player won't do so and my 60kbps down throughput connection will choke when trying to watch course videos... [18:30] AmberJ: can't you just download the video with video downloadhelper for Firefox? :) [18:33] smile, well, they are going to use a new platform called ClassX. It uses a technology called "interactive region-of-interest video streaming" [18:33] oh. But you can record a stream with Video Downloadhelper too. :) [18:33] It means that one can zoom into any region of video (classroom) specially greenboard and watch only that part of video... [18:34] Recording...yea that's a nice idea... [18:34] let me try [18:34] :DD [18:52] my shutdown icon has gone from pane. How i can get it back? [18:53] sha1: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Lubuntu/Documentation/FAQ/Guides#Shutdown_Button_is_missing_from_LXPanel.2C_how_can_I_add_it.3F [18:53] nice nick btw ;) [19:10] shutdown button? :p [19:10] Sudo reboot and switch power off when it's trying to restart :) === zmijunkie_ is now known as zmijunkie [19:18] what window manager does lubuntu use out of the box? [19:18] openbox :) [19:18] finnj: you're welcome. :) [19:18] ty =) [19:18] :D === zmijunkie_ is now known as zmijunkie [19:33] doei :) [20:36] How come I have space between the icons in my taskbar on the bottom right of the screen? [20:39] jpg or it did not happen [20:40] lol [20:40] probably you have laptop, you have suspended your laptop and after resume xfce4-power-manager's icon has pushed other icons away from it [20:41] am I right? [20:42] It only happens on my netbook yeah [20:43] THere is space between the pidgin icon and the battery icon and also between the wifi icon and the notification icon [20:43] if you kill that xfce4-power-manager [20:43] and start it again [20:43] you will see how it gets fixed :) [20:44] lol there is still space [20:45] I think it's the notification icon that's doing it [20:45] It doesn't really matter, it just looks odd is all [20:45] but half of the problem disappeared? [20:45] it's really that xfce4-power-manager which does it [20:45] and it's not just lubuntu [20:45] ah ok [20:45] it's also on any other system that uses xfce4-power-manager [20:45] It got rid of one of the gaps yeah [20:46] it really annoys [20:46] I've been pondering why someone havent forked gnome2's power manager ;) [20:49] bioterror: Removing and then re-adding the System Tray from the panel fixes it [20:50] yes [20:50] also killing panel and restarting it ;) [20:50] bioterror: xD [20:50] few ways [20:50] but the problem is known [20:50] bioterror: No doubt it'll be back when I reboot but I'm not too bothered [20:51] bioterror: It doesn't bother me unless I have a lot of windows open then it starts to crush the window list [20:51] yes [20:56] lxpanelctl restart or soemthing like that :P === zmijunkie_ is now known as zmijunkie [23:04] How can I add a program to auto-start after boot? [23:05] AmberJ: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Lubuntu/Documentation/FAQ/Guides#How_I_can_autostart_a_program_when_logging_into_Desktop [23:05] btw you should check out all the guides/workarounds :) [23:10] wxl, I get this: http://pastebin.com/D7WSN8xW [23:12] ah good point AmberJ must be created first [23:13] It exists already, wxl :D [23:13] weird [23:13] xpad.desktop exists already [23:13] Can you try that command on your system for xpad.desktop, wxl ? [23:14] AmberJ: works here [23:14] tried abiword.desktop [23:14] of course i am on 12.04 here [23:14] the 11.10 machine is at home [23:14] 11.10 here [23:14] Ok, I'm stupid :( [23:15] anyone else on 11.10? [23:15] you are? :D [23:15] I need to mkdir ~/.config/autostart/ first ;) [23:15] Nevermind. [23:15] that's what i meant! [23:15] of course i din't make that clear [23:15] * wxl makes mental note to edit wiki [23:16] I thought you meant about checking existence of "xpad.desktop" :D [23:16] sorry [23:16] Thanks wxl :) [23:16] Ah...I should say sorry instead... [23:16] no i was ambiguous [23:16] hard to help if i'm not clear [23:17] no, I was being stupid as well :D
