[00:00] <freeroute> iceroot: I have no idea, I guess whatever came default with Lubuntu 11.10
[00:00] <iceroot> freeroute: there is no nameserver by default
[00:00] <iceroot> freeroute: you are using the nameserver from your provider
[00:01] <iceroot>  /usr/sbin/dnsmasq seems to be the client
[00:01] <iceroot> but never used that so i dont know
[00:05] <iceroot> freeroute:   When  it  receives  a  SIGHUP,  dnsmasq  clears  its  cache and then re-loads /etc/hosts and
[00:05] <iceroot>        /etc/ethers
[00:07] <freeroute> iceroot: so in other words I should try to kill dnsmasq ?
[01:36] <calamari> hi. I have an asus laptop with a CRT plugged into the VGA port. when I switch to a virtual console, the CRT screen is squished on the left and corrupted. the laptop screen shows the correct image. I tried adding nomodeset. that fixes the VGA, however then xorg shows only black & white and is corrupted badly. any suggestions?
[01:37] <calamari> (lubuntu 11.10)
[01:40] <Unit193> I've had some issues until I had an xorg.conf file, but here's a doc on ways to fix res https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Config/Resolution and
[01:40] <Unit193> !xorgconf
[01:40] <ubot5`> The /etc/X11/xorg.conf file is deprecated, but sometimes may still be needed to  pass values to specific drivers. Generic xorg.conf generation: http://goo.gl/UQyq0  ATI/AMD ( fglrx driver ) specific: http://goo.gl/3pThV NVidia ( nvidia driver  )specific: http://goo.gl/iprqH man xorg.conf for file structure and syntax.
[01:44] <forumrat> anyone notice gnome-mplayer freezing X11 upon exit then leaving a hanged mplayer? It is eating my memory on quite a few systems.
[01:45] <Unit193> http://code.google.com/p/gnome-mplayer/issues/detail?id=558 Seems so
[01:45] <forumrat> beautiful interface though and nice simplistic shortcuts.
[01:46] <forumrat> ah yes in 11.04 what they don't mention though is the problem with zombied processes. The slight freeze is really neglible perhaps a second or two
[01:46] <Unit193> {http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1803118} I personally always seem to use VLC :P
[01:48] <forumrat> aye that is quite good but from a resources perspective I think mplayer was chosen, it really is nice though if done right
[01:49] <forumrat> unit193: at one point I think vlc was the only one supporting vdpau for hardware accelerated rendering but that isn't the case anymore
[01:50] <Unit193> Well, I generally like it as it plays everything, and it generally works for me. DIfferent people need different tools though
[01:50] <forumrat> SVN-r33713-4.6.1 is that particularly stable?
[01:52] <calamari> Unit193: thanks I'll try creating an xorg.conf if I can't find another way
[01:52] <calamari> brb reboot
[01:52] <Unit193> forumrat: For mplayer? I'd have no clue :P
[01:59] <forumrat> Unit193: seems /etc/rc.conf is deprecated in 11.10? Where is the dns info?
[02:00] <forumrat> damn it nvm reading wrong distro manual here
[02:00] <Unit193> Heh, isn't that fun? :P

[02:20] <forumrat> Unit193: how so I mean those files are included here right?
[02:20] <Unit193> Yep, just saying this isn't really support anymore, offtopic is just chatter of any type
[02:25] <forumrat> Unit193: so this entire time you have been trying to tell me to shut up and now you start rambling on about what you personally use directing me to break a rule of some sort of governence?

[02:25] <Unit193> No

[02:27] <Unit193> I now see kinda how you got that impression, but not quite... That's not my goal though
[02:27] <forumrat> Unit193: no where here does it say this channel is only for support. Nor that support is not bidirectional
[02:30] <Unit193> You are fully free to give support! That's the point of community, #lubuntu-offtopic is just where people go when they want to talk and joke around (as it says in the topic). I am not saying that you must shutup or leave, just if you want to have fun and talk with others....
[03:02] <head_victim> iceroot: I can't trigger your error, vanilla 12.04 though not Lubuntu
[03:05] <head_victim> I do have the .46 version installed though so perhaps something borked with your upgrade and skipped that

[04:52] <clache> Hi, i use Lubuntu11.10. I find too slow the movement of the mouse(it's a trackpoint), in spite of to have adjusted the mouse properties at maximum. I adjust it in "Keyboard and mouse" panel and the value is conserved. Is it a file where i can put a higher value?
[04:56] <holstein> clache: you can try http://blog.khax.net/2009/02/08/adjusting-mouse-and-touchpad-speed-in-xorgconf/
[04:56] <holstein> https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Touchpad_Synaptics is great too
[05:00] <clache> holstein: Thank you. I read it slowly cause english is not my mother tongue, but i think it's what I search. I have a second question, I don't like where the notification pop-up are(in top right corner). Is it possible to show it in another place.
[05:03] <holstein> clache: it might be this easy... notification-properties
[05:03] <holstein> http://forum.lxde.org/viewtopic.php?f=8&t=31390
[05:04] <holstein> let me check..
[05:07] <holstein> yeah, its in /usr/share/applications/notification-daemon.desktop
[05:07] <holstein> but i dont see position settings... i think it follows the panel
[05:13] <clache> holstein: I have this file but he slightly different(see name). This is paste http://paste.ubuntu-fr-secours.org/src-106350
[05:14] <clache> holstein: On my 1024x768 screen, the pop-up are at 7 pixel from top and 7 from right. I think it's write somewhere.
[05:15] <clache> holstein: By the way, I don't have notification-properties installed, it's maybe the first step i have to make.
[05:33] <clache> holstein: It's ok, it was in the last post. change the notification program.

[14:12] <danieldsj> 1)  if I run 'sudo update-manager -d' right now, will I be upgraded to an Alpha 2 release, or the nightly builds?

[22:29] <holstein> i dont see the advantage in keeping it "live"
[22:29] <holstein> there are plenty of guides about how to do it.. https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LiveUsbPendrivePersistent
[22:30] <holstein> i just do a normal install, and put grub right on the stick
[22:31] <symposium> nice thanks, I did not think about simply installing it on the stick..
[22:32] <symposium> I just hope that the bootloader will detect out-of-the-box the new hard-disk place, sdb
[22:32] <symposium> 'cause I had hard time in the past with an Asus netbook that had 2 hard-drive, and the principal one was sdb lol
[22:32] <holstein> symposium: i just install grub right to the stick.. might need an aternate installer to pull that off these days
[22:32] <holstein> the way it works when i do it... grub and my internal hard drive dont get touched
[22:33] <holstein> i put grub on the stick while in installing, or afterwards
[22:33] <holstein> i select the stick from the bios or whatever and boot
[22:33] <symposium> perfect, I'll try that, thanks
[22:33] <holstein> worst case, you break grub
[22:33] <holstein> !grub2
[22:33] <ubot5`> GRUB2 is the default Ubuntu boot manager since 9.10 (Karmic). Lost GRUB after installing Windows? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestoreGrub - For more information and troubleshooting for GRUB2 please refer to https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2 - See !grub1 for releases before Karmic (9.10)

[22:34] <holstein> i broke it a few time :)
[22:34] <holstein> times*
[22:38] <symposium> yeah, dealing with grub is so painful lol, last time with my asus netbook I finally decided to try syslinux... it detected all my drives without problem
