[04:22] Hey guys im trying to install 11.10 x86 on an acer aspire one 522 but lubuntu freezes as soon as it boots up [04:24] i get to pick a language, then select install it goes through its booting process and the lubunut loading screen then i get black desktop and it freezes at mouse pointer or at hour glass immediately [04:27] OptikKore: i would reference https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AspireOne522 [04:30] anyone use guvcview? [04:30] wxl: i have.. and i suggested it earlier, though it didnt seem to work out for this user [04:30] i usually just use VLC [04:44] holstein: it seems to fail for me trying to capture video [08:18] any chance someone knows why i can't adjust the key repeat rate via the control panel? (also kbdrate only goes down to 250ms delay) [10:56] hi guys. I have problems with lx-panel sometimes. I have a fresh install on a new laptop since some weeks. everything works fine with Lubuntu. But sometimes, the lx-panel consumpts 100% processor suddenly, and when I click on a minimized window in the panel, another window opens, which is located right in the panel, next to the one I wanted to open. Has anyone the same problem, or does anybody know what it could be? [10:57] First time I hear about it pAt_ [10:57] yes, it is very strange MrChrisDruif [10:58] most of the time, everything works absolutely fine [10:59] I don't know how to start to solve this. [11:00] I have a Nvidia Geforce G105M with the proprietary nvidia drivers running [11:02] Seems like pretty recent hw? [11:03] I bought the laptop in October 2011 brand new. But is is a cheap one €299 [11:03] but it runs excellent, very fast [11:03] Has a dual core pentium 2 x 2.3 Ghz [11:03] and I have 4 GB Ram [11:03] Pentium 2? O_O [11:04] nah, a Pentium T4500 dual core :D [11:04] with 2 x 2.3 GHz [11:04] Would have been awesome thou, dual-core Pentium 2 ^_^ [11:04] : [11:04] :D [11:07] This laptop is very strange. First I installed Debian Wheezy with LXDE. The laptop worked, but it was very slow regarding the graphics. Also it stucks sometimes for 1-2 seconds not responding. With Lubuntu, it runs much faster than with pure Debian LXDE :D [11:29] freezing for a sec or two could be relatex to harddrive [11:29] related [11:37] yes, that could be bioterror, maybe the hardware is not as good supporten in Debian as in Lubuntu. In Lubuntu, there are is no freezing anymore, nore slow graphics. === JackyAlcine_ is now known as JackyAlcine [13:47] hey there [14:16] hi [14:17] hey there [14:18] hi [14:18] how can I disable screen lock, when closing my laptop lid? [14:19] hang on ... support will be there in a min [14:20] thx, no rush [14:20] toscho, from screensaver settings [14:20] if I remember right ;) [14:20] screensaver is disabled [14:23] and it still locks the screen? [14:23] when closing the lid [14:23] yes [14:24] what is the prefered program for seting keyboard-shortcuts (like lock-screen) [14:25] xfce power manager says: when laptop lid is closed: lock screen (but the only alternatives are nothing suspend and hibernate) [14:25] toscho, http://img693.imageshack.us/img693/1125/xfce4powermanagersettin.png [14:25] there's that Extended tab [14:25] iceroot, editing .config/Openbox/lubuntu-rc.xml [14:25] and making a keyboard shortcut [14:26] unchecked that, but still lock [14:26] need to restart the power manager daemon? [14:26] iceroot, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Lubuntu/Documentation/FAQ/Guides#I_want_to_bind_a_key_to_lock_my_screen.2C_how_do_I_do_it.3F [14:26] bioterror: thank you [14:27] toscho, there should be no need for that [14:27] but still doesn't work [14:28] does xfce power manager manipulate a config file which can be manipulated by hand? [14:30] hard to say , I dont have a lubuntu computer near me as I am currently at work [14:31] has worked for me [14:36] bioterror: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/lubuntu-default-settings/+bug/912499 if i am correct ctrl + alt + l should lock the screen? [14:36] Launchpad bug 912499 in lubuntu-default-settings (Ubuntu) "No screen lock key combination/symbol/option per default" [Undecided,Fix released] [14:36] i already installed that fixed package [14:38] or is that fix just a lock-entry in the shutdown-dialog? (dont see it there) [14:54] is there good documentation about _persistently_ configuring shortcuts? all documentation I have found works only for active session. [14:55] 1. task would be ctrl-alt-backspace for x restart [15:08] I've tried to install Lubuntu 11.10 to a frinds older pc, and I've got an error... ...CPU doesn't suppotr a function (cmov) [15:08] ...any ideas... ? [15:08] *support [15:09] Did you test the media you tried to install with? (Aka the self-test?) [15:13] ...I've got disconected with dbtmro... :( [15:13] why? It's not allowed to say laptop brands? [15:14] and why dbtmro is listed? [15:14] ok... ...not listed anymore... :| [15:16] ok... ...any help plese on "CPU doesn't suppotr a function (cmov)" [15:18] Dani_TM: CMOV (conditional move) is a CPU instruction in the i686 architecture that wasn't present in earlier x86 instruction sets [15:18] ..."Disconnected (Connection reset by peer)"... ...why? [15:19] Dani_TM: CMOV (conditional move) is a CPU instruction in the i686 architecture that wasn't present in earlier x86 instruction sets [15:19] Ubuntu no longer supports older x86 architectures, as of 10.10 iirc [15:19] thank you, Sentynel [15:20] wich versin of Lubuntu can work on that machine? [15:20] *version [15:22] 10.04 will ru [15:22] *run [15:22] :) [15:23] does it have a alternate cd? [15:23] support for 10.04 was extended precisely because 10.10 onwards dropped i586 support [15:23] I don't know, you'll have to look around [15:23] ok Sentynel, thank you very much [15:23] :) [15:27] why I'm keep getting disconected? [15:28] something wrong with your internet connection probably [15:28] i's broadband [15:28] it's broadband [15:28] could be something wrong with my router? [15:41] Bug in lubuntu 12.04 alpha 1 Then you update it in Virualbox, the mouse dont work after the update [16:00] Bug in lubuntu 12.04 alpha 1 iso. Then you update it in Virualbox, the mouse dos not work after the update ?? [16:00] does [16:01] Don't know why you keep saying it here, but file a bug on launchpad [16:01] Telling us won't do any goo [16:01] d [16:02] unit193 can you do for me [16:02] No, I haven't seen it [16:03] unit193 try it in virtualbox [16:04] !bugs | thor_ [16:04] thor_: If you find a bug in Ubuntu or any of its derivatives, please file a bug using the command « ubuntu-bug » - See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs for other ways to report bugs. [16:05] thor_; you can't make someone else report a bug on launchpad which he hasn't experienced (nor force anyone to test something for you) [16:05] ok [16:11] thor_: whene you say mouse does not work, can you check that guest additions was installed fully, you may need to re-add it to your lubuntu VM, I know that CentOS knocks my Guest Additins off each time I update thart system. [16:11] phillw ok i will try it [16:12] later [16:13] hi [16:13] anyone know how to change what the volume applet controls? (pcm, master, headphone) [16:13] it's controlling a worthless channel right now that doesn't raise or lower the volume [16:14] devnet: you can always use alsamixer in the terminal [16:14] holstein: of course, and that's a nice 4 step process around a point and click one [16:14] I'm looking for a solution on the volume icon itself [16:15] devnet: we can call that option A if you'd like [16:15] meh [16:15] you can install gnome volume applet [16:15] you can install *any* other volume control or widget you choose [16:15] you can map it to some keys on your keyboard [16:15] you can remap what the current volume control is controling [16:15] I just thought it might be as simple as altering a config for the panel [16:15] i think its just a matter of figuring out what to search for [16:16] that applet should be disabled by default [16:16] devnet: well, for you it should... for me it works fine, on all the machines ive tested on [16:16] you can account for *all* hardware [16:16] cant* [16:17] well, it could definitely be improved to allow channel selection [16:17] too bad the lxde guys can't get that done [16:17] devnet: im sure its do-able [16:17] volwheel and volumeicon have it as standalone applets [16:17] http://forum.lxde.org/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=31166 is someone else with that question... [16:17] * holstein looking around... [16:17] holstein: you won't find much [16:18] * devnet has been searching for about 2 hrs [16:18] a lot of 'use alsamixer' or 'install this mixer' which really does nothing to solve the problem [16:18] if only there were a conf file to point it to a diff channel :) [16:19] well, installing gnome volume control would do a few things.. we know that funcionality is in the gnome one, and we know how to use it since we are more used to it [16:19] or at least, i am/was more used to it [16:19] you could also try pulse [16:19] you said the 'p' word [16:19] :( [16:20] I think a kitten just died [16:20] devnet: if you want a quick fix, you'll need to find an LXDE dev.. you could try mailing lists for lubuntu and/or LXDE... otherwise, its going to be a matter of trial and error til you get it the way you want it [16:20] devnet: ? [16:20] no worries [16:20] devnet: what P word? [16:21] pulseaudio [16:21] it's a curse word in my circles [16:21] lol [16:21] devnet: so... if it solve this issue, is that a problem? [16:21] shouldnt be [16:21] it does when it breaks after reboot :| [16:21] i use both alsa only and pulse over alsa.. i have had serious issues in both cases [16:22] i have also had flawless performance in both cases [16:22] devnet: we can call that option P, and you can ignore it then.. but you can also add that to your support query "..and i am not willing to test using pulse" [17:54] hello room [17:55] hellp [17:55] ????????????????????????????????????
