[00:02] CXIV: you are using an english system? [00:02] Yes [00:02] CXIV: because "desktop" is translated [00:02] ok [00:03] i have ~/desktop and ~/Arbeitsfläche and only ~/Arbeitsfläche is shown, everything in ~/desktop is ignored [00:03] Its lubuntu with persistant save [00:03] CXIV: do the files start with "."? [00:03] So should I made new user? [00:03] CXIV: are they readable by the current login user? [00:04] Yes , they are. [00:04] And I copied some folders there. [00:04] CXIV: plese paste the output of "ls -all ~/desktop" and "whoami" [00:04] ls shows them [00:04] !paste | CXIV [00:04] CXIV: For posting multi-line texts into the channel, please use http://paste.ubuntu.com | To post !screenshots use http://imagebin.org/?page=add | !pastebinit to paste directly from command line | Make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the channel topic.

[00:07] in ~ [00:07] Desktop [00:07] CXIV: ls -all ~/Desktop [00:08] I pasted it :D [00:08] Desktop != desktop [00:08] so you changed it already? [00:08] Sorry [00:08] I forget about case sensitive thing [00:09] Its ubuntu@ubuntu:~/Desktop$ [00:09] I haven't change anything [00:09] brb [00:09] CXIV: so when you put smething in ~/Desktop its there? [00:14] I made new user. [00:14] And i logged in again into live user. [00:14] And now I can see folders. [00:15] I will reboot now. [01:43] lubuntu is AWESOME [02:26] How do I change the clock to american time? [02:27] Clock Format %R What's it for 12hr time? [02:28] Celltech: give me one mo [02:28] Ok [02:29] I thought you asked a different Q. [02:29] https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Lubuntu/Documentation/FAQ/Guides#I_have_an_English_desktop_and_I_want_calendar_week_to_start_from_Monday_instead_of_Sunday [02:29] does the setting of the day of the week, I'll go get the time version for you. [02:30] Got it. [02:30] Lowercase r [02:30] Does lubuntu need restricted extras? [02:31] https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Lubuntu/Documentation/CustomizingTheClock [02:33] Celltech: only if you want to access the stuff not freely under licence, it can be added via https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats#Playing_Restricted_Formats I'll let you guess which link to click on :) [02:34] I just changed the clock. Now I'm wondering about restricted extras. Do I just instal the standard ubuntu ones? [02:35] Celltech: if you are running lubuntu... I'd suggest the lubuntu link? [02:35] Where's that at ? [02:36] https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats#Playing_Restricted_Formats [02:36] Celltech: ^^ [02:36] Thank you [02:36] all 4 flavours are listed [02:37] Link only opens chrome. Doesn't do anything [02:38] apt:lubuntu-restricted-extras?section=universe?section=multiverse This link does? If so, odd... [02:38] `sudo apt-get install lubuntu-restricted-extras` at any rate [02:40] That's better. Thank you again [02:40] Celltech: chromium should just ask for permission [02:41] if you say "yes" than it should get on and do it? [02:41] It's installing. [02:44] Celltech: sudo apt get will do anything, just checking as to why the posted link does not. [02:45] I'm still learning the sudo apt-get thing [02:45] I just switched from Ubuntu, to Xubuntu, Just now to Lubuntu [02:45] in a week [04:09] Does lubuntu run in seamless mode via virtualbox ? Do the additions work with it ? [04:09] Ive only tried a real install [04:22] rawfodog: I ran lubuntu in VB, it behaves perfectly, as would be expected from one of the ubuntu family. As to alpha's and beta's, well they are supposed to mis behave... that's why we have VB's :) [04:24] rawfodog: just make sure you add the 'additions' to each VB and not to the core, as ubuntu has KVM in the core and they will not work together. [04:24] you can remove kvm from the core if you wish. [04:25] thanks phillw [04:25] How do I specify that ? Won't running ./VBox___etc work ? [04:29] rawfodog: I use [04:30] used vbox from synaptics, then you get the newer version [04:31] rawfodog: pop over to #lubuntu-offtopic === P4R4N01D1 is now known as P4R4N01D === ubott2 is now known as ubottu [07:20] so I cant get lubuntu guest additions working [07:36] apt-get install build-essential linux-headers-`uname -r` [07:36] that worked [07:36] thanks lubuntu room [09:50] anyone here???!!!

Looking for assistance with Lubuntu 12.04 booting in Virtualbox. Is this the right place? Thanks. [18:38] Well, not if you don't ask your question... [18:39] Thanks. While booting 12.04 is booting in VB I'm dumped to a CL. This happens in live and install options. Any ideas? [18:40] Big long thread in the mailing list, phillw may be able to remember some of it, but generally, it's a dev version, it's not going to work out the best for now. [18:41] Not going to work best for now ... for VB in particular or booting in general? [18:41] In general, but he may have ideas. [18:42] Guest15844: I have seen the issue mentioned - I'm trying to find a bug report for you. [18:42] I can only find a reference for ppc [18:43] Thanks phillw, appreciate the effort. [18:43] Guest15844: can you start lubuntu? [18:43] from CLI? [18:44] The only command I attempted from CLI was 'startx' and it failed. [18:45] I got it to work once by starting x, then `startlubuntu`, but that was an odd way and a while ago... [18:45] I'll give 'startlubuntu' a try ... [18:46] Unit193: I'm also struggling to dust off my memory cells, it's been a while since I faced this one :( [18:47] for reference: Originally got no boot, until manually selected PAE option in VB. [18:49] Guest15844: try /usr/bin/startlubuntu [18:49] Feedback: 'startlubuntu' from CLI give output - GTK warning cannot open display [18:52] Either `sudo service lightdm start` or `sudo X` and type the `startlubuntu` only for the second in another TTY [18:54] Guest15844: are you using the latest daily for 12.04? [18:56] iso date is 2/25/2012, d/l'd it about 30 minutes ago. [18:57] Guest15844: it is possible the build has a major gremlin. Infuriatingly I do not have my VM's running. [18:58] phillw - thanks. tyring Unit193 advice - gave 'sudo X' command - for clarity now I should go to 2nd TTY and issue 'startlubuntu'? [18:58] Might be worth a shot... [18:59] At best. [18:59] Forgive me, how to open a second TTY from VB screen? Pecking around but no joy yet... [18:59] Guest15844: when testing, expect it to break - the 'fun' is in reporting what broke & what you did to fix it. [19:00] I agree. [19:00] Think it's the command char +F2? [19:00] ctrl [19:00] thanks, standby [19:01] fortunantely linux does keep a few spare console logins :) [19:04] sudo x - starts the boot process, but in locks with a blank screen (as far as I can tell) and was never able to switch TTY's [19:06] http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=8109343&postcount=2 ? [19:06] sudo service lightdm start - command not found [19:06] Unit193 - going to your link now ... [19:08] Hmmm... We should be using lightdm, but you can check in /etc/init.d/ if you really want (and sudo /etc/init.d/*whatever*dm start ) [19:08] Good info on VB TTY switching ... trying to boot again now [19:08] Well, it worked once, but not really sure I remember what I did exactly. [19:15] got to a second tty and can also now see output on sudo x command - from 2nd tty startlubuntu gives: GTK warning cannot open display [19:18] feedback on sudo x command: the boot seems to die on error - failed to load module 'vboxvideo' module does not exist [19:22] Guest15844: that is a vbox problem, not a lubuntu one :( [19:26] Could be my VB version (4.0.6). I think this is a little old. [19:26] Guest15844: as I do not have access to VB, the best I can find is http://forums.funtoo.org/viewtopic.php?pid=4055 [19:27] Guest15844: yeah, it may be worth updating to the newest one. [19:30] Got to go. Out of playtime for now. Thanks for the help everyone. [20:12] I've just tested lubuntu 12.04 daily-live 64bit in virtualbox and come only to black terminal?

[20:16] valdur55: Do you mean that it's okay tomorrow [20:16] thor_, maybe yes, maybe not [20:17] valdur55: ok :) [20:18] thor_, try startx and you get some driver failure [20:19] valdur55: 've tried it and it did not help [20:19] did you get driver erros? [20:20] valdur55: maybe but can not remember it [20:21] ok :). It's simpler to wait new daily build.
