[01:02] <j2bv16> God
[01:03] <j2bv16> Im on lubuntu
[02:25] <Unit193> Kalidarn: Can you disable that?
[03:11] <mosno> i thought the lubuntu alternate installer fetches updates as part of the install process. true?
[03:11] <mosno> because i'm being prompted post-install for a ton of updates, even though i saw apt (via debian-installer) connect to the net
[04:24] <phillw> mosno: it was gathering what it would need, the 2nd time it asks is to actually download them all.
[04:25] <phillw> which for 11.10 at this stage of its life will be a lot!
[04:25] <mosno> phillw, that's weird -- debian pulls-in updates during the install
[04:25] <mosno> lubuntu *seems to*
[04:25] <mosno> but doesnt'
[04:40] <mosno> phillw, why wouldn't it just do the download as part of the install if debian-installer already has that functionality?
[07:28] <Unit193> !away > zz_Kalidarn
[09:25] <Unit193> Kalidarn: Are you online?
[09:29] <toneloc> Im after trying to make a lubuntu boot cd using roxio
[09:29] <toneloc> I mistakenly forgot to make the write speed slower
[09:29] <toneloc> and burned it at 48x
[09:29] <toneloc> and the pc wont boot it
[09:30] <toneloc> I only have one cd left
[09:30] <toneloc> there is an option in roxio to make the cd bootable
[09:30] <toneloc> should i use that?
[09:31] <toneloc> but, wouldnt the .iso file be enough to enable booting?
[09:31] <toneloc> I burned a DSL disc before
[09:31] <Unit193> Shouldn't have to, just burn the iso, but first check MD5.
[09:31] <toneloc> I think i just burned the .iso file
[09:31] <Unit193> Could you use a flash?
[09:32] <toneloc> I dont have  a spare flash
[09:32] <toneloc> any i have- do not have enough space anyway
[09:32] <toneloc> it has to be a cd
[09:32] <Unit193> Alright, so CD it is.
[09:33] <toneloc> yeah, i will just burn the .iso
[09:33] <Unit193> Try MD5 checking, and then just make sure you're making the CD correctly, easy to mess up on that.
[09:33] <toneloc> yeah, i should have set it for the slowest burn speed
[09:54] <gautam123> Hi all, the mic on my 11.10 isn't working
[09:54] <gautam123> can someone help troubleshoot please? Thanks
[09:56] <Marzata> gautam123: but it was working in 11.04?
[09:56] <gautam123> Marzata: Dunno, this is a fresh install
[09:56] <gautam123> This laptop had windows before..
[09:56] <gautam123> The volume of the mic in alsamixer is full
[09:56] <gautam123> so is mic boost
[09:57] <gautam123> and there is only one sound card
[09:57] <gautam123> Intel HDA
[09:57] <Marzata> what laptop?
[09:57] <gautam123> Intel 82801I (ICH9 Family) HD Audio Controller driver HDA Intel Sound: ALSA v: 1.0.24
[09:57] <gautam123> Sony Vaio VGN - CS series
[09:57] <gautam123> I also tried plugging in an external mic from the mic jack
[09:58] <gautam123> but that didn' work either
[10:08] <gautam123> Marzata: Fixed it
[10:08] <gautam123> I installed pavucontrol
[10:08] <gautam123> PulseAudio Volume Control
[10:09] <gautam123> From there I was able to choose the correct device and control the volume
[10:18] <toneloc> is l;ubuntu not gui?
[10:18] <toneloc> *lubuntu
[10:18] <toneloc> I have made a boot cd
[10:19] <toneloc> and entered to try without installing
[10:19] <toneloc> i get as far as a command prompt
[10:19] <toneloc> but i was expecting a whole gui desktop
[10:19] <toneloc> not just a command line
[10:19] <toneloc> I wonder what did i do wrong
[10:19] <toneloc> ?
[10:22] <Marzata> toneloc: last summer?
[10:24] <toneloc> haha very funny
[10:24] <toneloc> just there now- i mad ethe cd
[10:24] <toneloc> *made the
[10:24] <toneloc> perhaps I got the wrong image?
[10:25] <toneloc> I have lubuntu-11.10 desktop-i386
[10:26] <Marzata> toneloc: http://cdimages.ubuntu.com/xubuntu/releases/oneiric/release/
[10:27] <toneloc> i think that is where I got my image
[10:36] <toneloc> hmm, my image is 658MB
[10:36] <toneloc> not the same size as the other
[10:38] <toneloc> oh wait- it is the same
[10:40] <toneloc> welcome to ubuntu 11.10 (GNU/Linux 3.0.0-12 generic i686)
[10:40] <toneloc> is what it says
[10:40] <toneloc> I guess this is just a command line only :(
[12:15] <CatalanGuy> hi, is it a good idea to upgrade from ubuntu 10.10 to lubuntu 12.04?
[17:15] <ren1> ciao
[17:35] <nicofs> I just installed Lubuntu on a system running Xubuntu - after purging Xubuntu at startup I get "xsession: could not start xfce-session. loading default" (or similar) - so apparently LXDE is the default already. how do i configure my system to use the default by default?
[17:37] <holstein> i remember having bigger issues than that, and i just decided to have them both installed.. LXDE and XFCE
[17:38] <nicofs> holstein, my system has 4GB of hdd - can't afford that...
[17:38] <nicofs> and since Xfce uses too much of the 448MB RAM...
[17:40] <holstein> nicofs: i would probably lose the greeter too then, and just start whatever on the commandline
[17:41] <phillw> nicofs: did you follow http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/purelxdenatty for getting rid of xubuntu?
[17:42] <nicofs> phillw, no, i just worked through my packages manually...
[17:42] <phillw> (or the set of instructions relevant for your version.. e.g. 10.10 etc)
[17:43] <phillw> nicofs: I suggest running the command from there. I've never had any complaints when people have used it. But... what version of lubuntu are you using?
[17:44] <nicofs> i *guess* it's 11.10 - at least the underlying ubuntu was...
[17:45] <phillw> okies, those instructions will work as they are on that page.
[17:45] <phillw> (there was a slight alteration suggested for prior to 11.10.)
[17:49] <nicofs> that command doesn't work as such... it returnes errors "virtual packages like XYZ can't be removed" and "unable to locate XYZ"...
[17:49] <nicofs> i can (will) sort out said packages and retry...
[17:51] <phillw> hmmm, it should, however still remove any xubuntu ones you missed?
[17:55] <nicofs> i don't think that any missed packages will change the problem...
[17:55] <nicofs> at some point, xsession is configured to start xfce - which is no longer there - and then offers me to start the default (lxde)
[17:59] <nicofs> phillw, after adjusting the command, i will apparently free another 560MB... but among those things to be removed are packages i still need (pidgin)...
[18:28] <smile4ever> AmberJ_: hi! :D
[18:30] <AmberJ_> hey smile4ever :)
[18:44] <AmberJ> Which Amber, smile4ever ? AmberJ_ or AmberJ ? ;)
[18:45] <smile4ever> AmberJ: both! :o
[21:22] <mudd1> hi there
[21:23] <mudd1> my NetworkManager stopped working yesterday or so ... in Precise
[21:23] <mudd1> don't know if this is a bug or me who just broke something
[21:24] <mudd1> I'm a bit lost how to debug this thing
[21:24] <iceroot> mudd1: seems to be a common bug
[21:24] <iceroot> mudd1: i saw some reports about that on #ubuntu+1
[21:24] <mudd1> ok
[21:24] <mudd1> thanks
[21:24] <mudd1> so I won't try to make things worse by trying to fix this
[21:25] <iceroot> mudd1: maybe have a look at launchpad
[21:26] <iceroot> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/network-manager/+bug/956238
[21:27] <mudd1> thanks a lot, I still don't find my way easily on Launchpad
[21:28] <iceroot> mudd1: no problem
[21:28] <mudd1> my symptoms are a bit different, my nm-applet said something about network-manager not running at all
[21:29] <mudd1> although now it just says "networking disabled" and the enable menu entry is greyed out
[21:29] <mudd1> this is all very weird
[21:30] <mudd1> maybe I just add my symptoms to this bug and let the maintainers figure out if this has a common cause or is yet another bug
[21:31] <mudd1> is there any other log that network-manager reports to than the syslog?
[21:32] <mudd1> I'd like to provide something remotely useful at least
[21:32] <mudd1> network-manager main process (9813) terminated with status 1
[21:32] <mudd1> network-manager main process ended, respawning
[21:33] <mudd1> this is what the syslog says when I restart the network-manager service
[21:33] <mudd1> not terribly verbose
[21:34] <mudd1> bbiab
[21:38] <_DeLa_> hi there
[21:39] <_DeLa_> what is the minimum free hard drive GBs needed for lubuntu installation?
[21:41] <Marzata> 5 GB?
[21:43] <Unit193> /dev/sdb6             8.9G  3.7G  4.7G  45% /
[21:44] <_DeLa_> I got an asus eee pc 701 netbook with 4gb of ssd HD....
[21:44] <Unit193> As you can see, mine is using only 3.7G now.
[21:49] <_DeLa_> yeah, well...300mb will be loaded quite fast...
[22:09] <mudd1> _DeLa_, if you can get a cheap drive that's somewhat larger, you should probably go for that option
[22:11] <mudd1> my Lubuntu install uses 11 Gigs but I'm the kind of guy who installs loads of packages without thinking ... anyway, if you don't want to think about every package twice, you should try and get a cheap 16G SSD or something
[22:18] <_DeLa_> oh well...I just got the asus eee off ebay for around 60 euros....an new ssd would be at least as much euro-wise... probably not ;)
[22:26] <_DeLa_> thanks anyway
[22:42] <mudd1> _DeLa_, you might get a cheap but usable 16G drive for 30 bucks ... still half the price of the netbook but also four times the capacity ;)
[22:43] <mudd1> I'm off, thanks again for the help, iceroot
[22:44] <_DeLa_> mudd1: I hope to have found a cheaper alternative: v
