TinkerToyThen back to the prompt. The VM is Virtualbox, and it's the latest version if Lubuntu, seeing as I created the VM today.00:00
TinkerToySo, if anyone could help me figure this out, that'd be great! :300:00
SentynelTinkerToy: we know literally nothing about what you're trying to build.. you should probably ask in the channel/mailing list/etc for whatever you're trying to build00:02
TinkerToyI already asked. They sent me to #ubuntu, who sent me here.00:02
TinkerToyI really don't want to get caught in an endless loop. :C00:03
Sentynelwhat exactly are you trying to build?00:03
TinkerToyIt's a game engine called Aleph One.00:04
SentynelTinkerToy: okay, so what's the output if you run ./config.guess00:10
phillwSentynel: my guess is that the VM created was not an i686 one, most likely created an amd64 one or vice versa.01:43
Sentynelphillw: I don't think that was the issue01:44
Sentynel"checking build system type... Invalid configuration `i686-pc-linux-': machine `i686-pc-linux' not recognized" is the error01:44
Sentynelsee the trailing dash there?01:44
SentynelI tested and it works fine if you remove the trailing dash, or if you put something after it01:45
phillwSentynel: well, it would have helped if he said which VM he was using :P01:45
phillwthere are three that I know of.01:45
phillwor, of course, it could be as simple as the VM not having http://en.kioskea.net/faq/859-machine-i686-pc-linux-not-recognized01:47
phillwthe compiler tools do have to be added.01:48
Sentynelheh, that could well explain it too..01:49

john_253hey help plz how do i install java for chromium? thanks04:25
Unit193!java04:25
ubottuTo just use java you need a "Java Runtime Environment" (JRE) and/or a browser plugin. If that is not sufficient you will need a "Java Development Kit" (JDK) aka "Software  Development Kit" (SDK).  Please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java about how to install one of three current implementations.04:25
john_253ubottu: ty i'll try04:26
ubottujohn_253: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :)04:26
john_253lol04:26
john_253so i just need browser plug? for games04:27
theBlakeBrownI use openjdk and icedtea04:27
theBlakeBrownfor java04:27
Unit193As long as the games are java, you'll need icedtea or somesuch.04:28
john_253i click lick does nothing04:29
john_253link*04:29
john_253open's a new tab is all04:30
Unit193Just open a terminal and type    sudo apt-get install icedtea6-plugin04:31
Unit193Those links don't seem to really work in chromium well.04:31

monserhello15:07
monseris there a way to convert my ubuntu to lubuntu without new install?15:07
valdur55install lubuntu-core package15:08
monserI can not install anything from the repositories15:09
valdur55it doesn't install additional soft, like abiworld , gnumetric etc...15:09
monserI have old ubuntu15:09
valdur55ok, old ubuntu15:09
valdur55what version?15:09
monsernot sure I think its something like 9.0015:09
monserhow to check15:09
valdur55lsb_release15:10
valdur55damn... need lsb modules15:10
valdur55more /etc/issue15:10
monserthere is file that says what version the os is15:10
monserbut I do not know the name and the location of the file15:11
monserits 9.1015:11
valdur55Look on /etc/lsb-release file.. :P...15:11
valdur55oh.. 9.1015:11
monserwhen I try to upgrade to the latest version the installer wants me to remove wine15:13
monserI do not want that15:13
monserso I canceled the upgrade15:13
valdur55but you can install newer  wine15:14
monserI remember that I had to install additional files with wine in order to make some programs to run15:15
monserso I things might get real messy15:15
=== arno is now known as Guest11138
valdur55monser, ok... but why you don't backup your changes?15:16
monserI can not remember what exactly those files were15:16
monserhow to back them?15:16
EvilResistance!9.1015:16
ubottuUbuntu 9.10 (Karmic Koala) was the eleventh release of Ubuntu. !End-Of-Life on April 29th 2011, see http://ubottu.com/y/karmic for details.15:16
monserhow to backup them?15:16
valdur55when you make change then write some post about it :)15:17
EvilResistancemonser, your wine settings will probably remain the same15:17
EvilResistanceit needs to remove wine in order to install *new* wine and dependencies15:17
valdur55Yea, wine is on .wine folder :P.15:17
EvilResistancethat folder is not removed by the installer(s)15:17
Guest11138Hi all. Could anybody who knows a thing or two about configuring Sylpheed have a look at this please? http://askubuntu.com/questions/110288/sylpheeed-spell-check-non-default-language15:18
Guest11138Your help is appreciated!15:18
monserGuest11138, I think you need to find out what spell checking engine is used and what dictionaries15:23
monserand get eh appropriate dictionary for your language15:24
Guest11138Well I basically told it to use aspell, and aspell-de for German ist installed15:24
Guest11138xterm -e apell check %s15:25
Guest11138*aspell15:25
Guest11138the default spell check language is "de"15:25
Guest11138so I don't know why I'm still proposed to replace German words with English ones15:26
Guest11138the German words aren't getting underlined anymore, but the spell check still doesn't know I'm composing a mail in German15:27
monsermaybe it uses enchant library for spell checking15:27
monserand can not use aspell15:28
monserenchant uses open office dictionaries15:28
monserjust guessing15:28
ubihi15:45
valdur55Guest11138, You should look right click menu and maybe there is language selection15:46
ubii just installed lubuntu and login screen appears and it wont accept my username and password (altho it shouldn't ask me for it because in installation i checked "log in automatically" box). i am 100% sure i got right usename and password and i watch for caps lock15:47
Guest11138the proper language "de" is selected15:47
Guest11138words in German don't get underlined anymore but the spell check using xterm and aspell  only comes up with English words15:48
Guest11138that's my problem, I want a proper spell check for German in case of typing errors15:48

filo1234leszek: do you have some link for to look how to patch it?17:41
filo1234if is not trouble....17:42
leszekfilo1234: as an alternative I would suggest to use the open with -> context menu entry to place your script there17:42
valdur55filo1234, maybe you should use terminal17:42
filo1234valdur55: yeah I actually have a launcher on menu17:43
valdur55yes, open with is good point :)17:44
filo1234leszek: uhmmm not really, because my script is only for dropbox, so for to get public url about files on Public path17:44
filo1234valdur55: yeah17:45
leszekfilo1234: ah so you want a dropbox integration in pcmanfm17:46
filo1234leszek: yes I want!! :D17:46
leszekfilo1234: hmm... thats hard to achieve17:47
filo1234leszek: so in another pc with lubuntu I use shell, dropbox puburl /path/Public/file  but on another pc I have installed dropbox ( for server )17:48
filo1234and it doean't have nautilus or wathever DM integration, or dropbox plugin command17:49
filo1234so I made a script :p17:50
filo1234leszek: ok no problem, I'll use my launcher from menu, I'm not really stay 24 hour on, linking public link :p17:51

rbnielsenOf course that works, but it's sort of annoying. ;)19:26
thor_rbnielsen: If you are looking for programs then is launchpad a good place to look19:26
epictetusit's bizarre that it would mute and not unmute, i have no idea what program is actually doing the muting19:26
epictetusi don't think it is alsa directly, i think some other package is detecting your keyboard has a mute key and binding it19:27
rbnielsenBut.. How can it work in one direction, and not in the other?19:28
rbnielsenIf something is binding it, I'd suppose it wouldn't work altogether.19:29
epictetusooh19:29
KonstantinosCan anyone help with Samba4 problem?19:29
smile4everbye :)19:30
rbnielsenWhen I press the button, it mutes. But when I press it again, it won't unmute.19:30
epictetusKonstantinos: no specific knowledge but it sounds like you can try deleting your /etc/samba/smb.conf file ? (back it up first if you need it ) and then re-run whatever package installer / whatever you are running to install samba 419:30
sparcmwhat's the problem with samba?19:30
epictetusKonstantinos: just reading your error message and telling you to do exactly what it says lol :P19:31
