|---|---|---|
| number_one_1 | im new 2 linux, curious how i install java | 04:26 |
| Unit193 | Browser plugin is icedtea-plugin, and java is openjdk | 04:40 |
| Unit193 | !java | 04:40 |
| ubottu | To 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. | 04:40 |

| |johnny| | Hey guys. I never had trouble with this before when I had an ATI card. But I'm having a series of issues now that I went with NVIDIA although the video quality is much nicer. | 07:29 |
| |johnny| | lxpanel volume applet won't show up even if I add it. The volume however can be controlled through pavucontrol. Its just weird how the applet won't display at all no matter how many times I add it. | 07:33 |

| leszek | hi | 10:01 |
| freiform | hi | 11:44 |
| pAt_ | hello freiform | 11:57 |
| |johnny| | Can someone help me change the font of the bottom of the windows? http://imagepaste.nullnetwork.net/img/1331214101window.png | 13:42 |
| |johnny| | I'm trying to change everything from 10 px to 16 px. I have done it so far except for there and in lxdm | 13:43 |
| danstoner | |johnny|: Did you get your mising Volume applet issue fixed? | 13:43 |
| |johnny| | danstoner, nope :( | 13:44 |
| danstoner | Any panel issues I have had so far were resolved by restarted lxpanel. | 13:44 |
| |johnny| | It may be because I had to recompile lxpanel and reinstall it because the fonts were 10px and I had to move them up to 16px. I have had to do this with basically everything because I have a large screen. | 13:46 |
| |johnny| | lxde defaults are set to smaller screens | 13:46 |
| |johnny| | Some things can be set through openbox but other things are static and have to be changed manually unfortunately | 13:47 |
| |johnny| | Also yeah rebooting didn't seem to help. This would restart lxpanel I would think. | 13:48 |
| danstoner | There is also a lxde channel on freenode. Since you are recompiling things you might have more luck there. | 13:48 |
| |johnny| | oh | 13:49 |
| danstoner | How big is your screen, BTW? | 13:49 |
| danstoner | All of the default fonts are quite nice for me on 1920x1080 screens. | 13:50 |
| |johnny| | 32 inch | 13:50 |
| danstoner | ah. nice. :) | 13:50 |
| |johnny| | But with the NVIDIA card the fonts seem to stick at 10 px and won't scale up automatically. | 13:51 |
| |johnny| | The ATI card however wouldn't use the entire screen and there would be a black square around it. | 13:52 |
| danstoner | The nvidia software has some font prettying stuff, I wonder if it is getting in the way. | 13:52 |
| |johnny| | hmm not sure. I checked out the NVIDIA software and there was nothing that could set the fonts the way I like. You can set some through obconf but not all. Much has to be set manually. I tried before to set lxdm fonts manually by recompiling and it led to a full on reinstall of lubuntu due to it screwing up everything. So I haven't been able to remedy that problem. Just the lxpanel problem. | 13:54 |
| danstoner | Your screenshot was of PCManFM, correct? | 13:55 |
| |johnny| | yup | 13:55 |
| danstoner | Is it happening with other apps too? | 13:55 |
| danstoner | Seems like most fonts should be configurable via the theme. | 13:55 |
| danstoner | Otherwise, they might be hard-set in each application. | 13:55 |
| |johnny| | No because all other apps I edited the conf files to Ubuntu 16 instead of Ubuntu 10. | 13:56 |
| |johnny| | It was loads of manual editing | 13:56 |
| |johnny| | Leafpad, LXTerminal, I had to do it app by app | 13:56 |
| danstoner | Bummer. | 13:56 |
| |johnny| | Yeah :( Firefox was the only app which displayed the correct font size | 13:56 |
| |johnny| | There is one thing I could pinpoint the problem with the volume control app though | 13:57 |
| valdur55 | |johnny|, fill bug report! | 13:57 |
| valdur55 | about this fonts problem | 13:58 |
| |johnny| | It may not be installed along with some other apps. Reason I suspect this is because the battery monitor app can't be added to the panel either | 13:58 |
| === gallo_ is now known as gallo | ||
| |johnny| | valdur55, unfortunately, I can't file one with Ubuntu itself because the last time I did, they said bugs can only be filed for Ubuntu with the Unity distro. | 13:59 |
| |johnny| | So if its a bug with lxde I'll probably have to do that somewhere else | 13:59 |
| valdur55 | but have you tried lubuntu project ? | 14:00 |
| |johnny| | valdur55, I'm using it as we speak. Very happy with it. :) Everything actually worked great with the ATI card I had. | 14:00 |
| valdur55 | oh... report bug against lubuntu | 14:01 |
| |johnny| | It was when I switched video cards that I started having lots of issues. Even though the resolution and look is superior to the old ATI card. | 14:01 |
| valdur55 | |johnny|, look https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Lubuntu/ReportingBugs | 14:01 |
| danstoner | or https://bugs.launchpad.net/~lubuntu-desktop | 14:04 |
| |johnny| | I can do that yeah | 14:05 |
| |johnny| | http://imagepaste.nullnetwork.net/img/13312154422012-03-08-090228_1920x1080_scrot.png BTW just to show you guys the applet problem | 14:05 |
| |johnny| | Marty Jack who is on the lxde team is aware of the problem. He said nothing could be done about it yet. I just read a thread about it here: http://forum.lxde.org/viewtopic.php?f=21&t=1423 | 14:10 |
| |johnny| | "I have decided to go with the independent font size control. It does add an additional option, but I think it gives everyone a way to be happy. The default will be 10 pt. Thank you all for your opinions. | 14:10 |
| |johnny| | I have this working, but I cannot promise when it will come out. Because we have lots of language translations, we have to batch up new features that add strings to the user interface." | 14:10 |
| danstoner | |johnny|: Try moving the volume control "up" and see if it appears. | 14:10 |
| |johnny| | danstoner, I tried that and it still doesn't show up | 14:11 |
| danstoner | move it above the clock | 14:11 |
| danstoner | I had an issue where I didn' think the notification areas were appearing, but it was just the width of the panel was too wide for the screen. You could try changing the panel width from "100 %" to something smaller in pixels. | 14:12 |
| danstoner | and I haven't figured out what "Dynamic" means, but I had much better luck hard-setting panel width in Pixels. | 14:13 |
| |johnny| | http://imagepaste.nullnetwork.net/viewimage.php?id=3454 still no good. | 14:13 |
| |johnny| | It just seems so odd because with the ATI card the minute I installed pulseaudio it appeared right away. | 14:14 |
| |johnny| | oooh | 14:17 |
| |johnny| | http://forum.lxde.org/viewtopic.php?f=21&t=31496 | 14:17 |
| |johnny| | I understand now | 14:17 |
| danstoner | |johnny|: cool! | 14:20 |
| |johnny| | 0.58 by default is missing the volume control plugin | 14:20 |
| |johnny| | It is considered "optional" | 14:21 |
| |johnny| | So I think thats the issue right there | 14:21 |
| |johnny| | Earlier lxpanel versions have it enabled by default. When I compiled the new version, this is what it did. I think.... | 14:21 |
| |johnny| | I'm not exactly certain though how to fix the problem but I'm looking at this right now https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/lxpanel/0.5.8+git20120212-0ubuntu1 | 14:23 |
| |johnny| | hmm apparently that wasn't the problem. It shows that the Net status icon plugin is also optional and that one works. | 14:28 |
| === nothingspecial is now known as angela-android | ||
| === angela-android is now known as nothingspecial | ||
| |johnny| | /etc/asound.conf is blank. Could this have something to do with it? | 14:30 |
| |johnny| | Also alsamixer looks screwy in and of itself. I believe alsamixer is likely attached to volume control in some way. | 14:32 |
| |johnny| | http://imagepaste.nullnetwork.net/viewimage.php?id=3455 | 14:34 |
| |johnny| | Ok yes as I figured. The problem is much larger than just the lxde volume control app. This is an ALSA issue. GNOME Alsa Mixer does not load. | 14:43 |
| |johnny| | yeah I think this is not good. amixer: Unable to find simple control 'Master',0 | 15:43 |
| iceroot | can someone on lubuntu 12.04 with wine installed please right click on a *.jpg and choose the open-with menu. do you also have wine listed twice there? | 16:30 |
| iceroot | the next question is of course why is wine in that list | 16:31 |
| filo1234 | hi all | 17:07 |
| filo1234 | I have a little issue "maybe" I'm not sure if it's a xdg-open version related...using Ubuntu 10.04 here, so when I type xdg-open on terminal I aspecting that pcmanfm opens, like on other version of lubuntu/gnome, this is the error http://paste.ubuntu.com/874834/ btw when I use xdg-open /path/somefile it runs | 17:13 |

| valdur55 | ok . and then use same command with gnome, kde ... session | 17:21 |
| valdur55 | then you see what causes this bug :) | 17:21 |
| filo1234 | valdur55: ok wait I have to start vbox :P | 17:22 |
| valdur55 | filo1234, but, why you should do that? | 17:23 |
| filo1234 | valdur55: beacause I have a portable script that opens window-manager for choose files.... | 17:23 |
| filo1234 | because* | 17:24 |
| valdur55 | xdg-open is bash script | 17:24 |

| filo1234 | valdur55: http://paste.ubuntu.com/874876/ http://paste.ubuntu.com/874872/ | 17:44 |
| filo1234 | it works on xfce and gnome too and on another lubuntu ( 12.04 ) | 17:44 |
| filo1234 | valdur55: I see DE=generic on that pastes instead DE=xfce or DE=gnome | 17:49 |
| filo1234 | could it be the prblem? | 17:49 |
| valdur55 | and there is x$DE == "xLDE" line | 17:50 |
| filo1234 | :O | 17:50 |
| valdur55 | on 12.04 | 17:50 |
| filo1234 | I don't know it, I have 12.04 at work | 17:51 |
| filo1234 | valdur55: so here, my session start with startlxde instead startlubuntu | 17:52 |
| filo1234 | is this the issue? | 17:52 |
| valdur55 | yea, you use lxde default settings instead of lubutnu default settings | 17:53 |
| filo1234 | valdur55: pffffff ok i'll check for fix it | 17:53 |
| valdur55 | startlxde and startlubuntu are again bash scripts | 17:53 |
| filo1234 | yeah | 17:54 |
| valdur55 | you can see diff :) | 17:54 |

| |johnny| | ok I solved the problem with the volume however now I have the problem with the small font on lxpanel again | 22:05 |
| |johnny| | Apparently, if you try to recompiled lxpanel-0.5.8 over the lxpanel-0.5.8 thats already included with lubuntu, you can fix the small fonts but you'll lose your volume control applet | 22:06 |
| |johnny| | *recompile | 22:06 |
| |johnny| | ok I posted about it in the lxde forum as per suggestion | 22:46 |
