| quuxman | I've got an interesting problem. If I run "mplayer song.mp3" on VT1, it plays fine (using ALSA), but if I do exactly the same in a terminal in X, it fails | 00:53 |
|---|---|---|
| quuxman | It prints a bunch of alsa errors, starting with: [AO_ALSA] alsa-lib: confmisc.c:768:(parse_card) cannot find card '0' | 00:54 |
| quuxman | In the console, alsamixer works fine. If I run it from a terminal in X, I get: cannot open mixer: No such file or directory | 00:56 |
| quuxman | this is bizarre | 00:59 |

| ilomabr | Hello all. Looking for any resources on running kernel 3.2 with lubuntu 11.10... | 06:53 |
| bioterror | is there a reason for that? | 06:55 |
| rawfodog | I made the mistake in changing the right click on the desktop to the open box menu, how do I get the default lubuntu menus back for my desktop ? | 06:57 |
| bioterror | rawfodog, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Lubuntu/Documentation/FAQ/Guides#Right-clicking_on_desktop_pulls_up_a_menu_that_is_missing_the_.22Desktop_Preferences.22_option_and_now_I_can.27t_change_my_wallpaper | 06:58 |
| bioterror | lovely url | 06:58 |
| rawfodog | thanks man | 06:58 |
| rawfodog | ah nice it worked, thanks bioterror | 06:59 |
| rawfodog | err ,, that sounds wierd lol | 06:59 |
| ilomabr | On my particular hardware i saw better wireless performance using a bleeding edge distro with kernel 3.2. | 06:59 |
| bioterror | ilomabr, seems that the most of the ppa's doesnt have newer than 3.0.something | 07:02 |
| bioterror | ilomabr, compile yourself ;) | 07:02 |
| bioterror | ilomabr, upgrade to beta and you'll have 3.2.0-20 ;) | 07:04 |
| ilomabr | Is it better to wait for the release of 12? (25 days) | 07:05 |
| bioterror | ilomabr, hard to say | 07:09 |
| bioterror | this one works fine ;) | 07:09 |
| ilomabr | True, I'm gonna sit tight, I'm new to lubuntu (2 days) and I've never been more happy with a linux distro | 07:11 |
| ilomabr | Thanks for the help | 07:11 |
| DragoniaX_DX | hoi | 13:07 |
| DragoniaX_DX | how can i change processor settings? | 14:11 |
| holstein | DragoniaX_DX: what are you trying to change? | 14:13 |
| DragoniaX_DX | im looking at system information and it says intel(R) Core(TM) i7-2630QM CPU @ 2.00GHz 800.00MHz is it then running at 800mhz ? o.o | 14:15 |
| holstein | DragoniaX_DX: it likely steps | 14:16 |
| DragoniaX_DX | uh... | 14:17 |
| holstein | you can disable that though it you prefer.. i havent dealt with CPU scaling in LXDE, but in gnome2 in ubuntu 10.04, an applet can be added to control CPU scaling | 14:18 |
| holstein | i think knowing that term "cpu scaling", or just seeing if the system feels slow will help you | 14:19 |
| DragoniaX_DX | okay, im gonna try that applet if it works | 14:20 |
| DragoniaX_DX | hmm installed 4 software things and it says now 2001.00MHz xD thnx for helping :D | 14:37 |

| dustman | hi | 17:36 |
| dustman | does lununtu read .xinitrc when user logs in? | 17:37 |
| dustman | I'd like to add kbd switch between dk/ru, but can't figure out how to do it | 17:38 |
| dustman | lxkeymap doesn't allow me to 'add' new layout, just switch existing one | 17:39 |
| dustman | and writing ' | 17:39 |
| dustman | setxkbmap -layout "dk,ru" -variant ",phonetic" -option "grp:alt_shift_toggle" ' to .xinitrc or .xsession doesn't seem to work | 17:39 |
| dustman | it works tho if simply typed in terminal | 17:40 |
| dustman | k, just a notice: fixed it by adding that line to .xprofile | 17:45 |

| kristian_aalborg | I just put lubuntu on an old box... everything was cool until I decided to get a wifi dongle | 18:07 |
| kristian_aalborg | RTL8191su is the chip.... I see the networks, but can't connect | 18:08 |
| kristian_aalborg | holstein, head_victim etc - hi, you know me | 18:08 |
| holstein | kristian_aalborg: hey | 18:08 |
| holstein | i would try ndisgtk or whatever the ndiswrapper GUI is | 18:09 |
| holstein | might need to blacklist the offending module | 18:09 |
| kristian_aalborg | the nick is altered because I'm on a different box than usually | 18:09 |
| holstein | OR, just go right back to the store and try another one ;) | 18:09 |
| kristian_aalborg | well. I tore apart the cellophane already | 18:09 |
| holstein | shouldnt matter | 18:10 |
| kristian_aalborg | I am reading about the problem on ubuntuforums | 18:10 |
| holstein | you should be able to exchange | 18:10 |
| kristian_aalborg | does matter - the shop is closed and I'm leaving this place tonight | 18:10 |
| holstein | i always ask before i leave the store though... | 18:10 |
| kristian_aalborg | (the place where the box is, not this mortal coil" | 18:10 |
| kristian_aalborg | yeah, I usually ask but there was some kind of situation there today | 18:11 |
| kristian_aalborg | regardless | 18:11 |
| holstein | yeah.. try the windows driver | 18:11 |
| holstein | that GUI makes it pretty painless, and i bet you have a disc with it on it already :) ...literally wont hurt anything | 18:12 |
| kristian_aalborg | I'll give it a shot | 18:16 |
| kristian_aalborg | in an aside, are things well in your end? | 18:16 |
| holstein | yup... busy... happy :) not bad at all! | 18:16 |
| holstein | and you? | 18:16 |
| kristian_aalborg | I'm fine... studying | 18:16 |
| kristian_aalborg | not too busy, which equals broke but other than that I'm fine | 18:17 |
| kristian_aalborg | I may have gotten a writing gig... can I perhaps interview you (it will be brief) | 18:22 |
| kristian_aalborg | it's for a music website | 18:22 |
| kristian_aalborg | okay, so I got the inf via ndiswrapper | 18:34 |
| holstein | kristian_aalborg: anytime | 18:35 |
| holstein | you know where to find me :) | 18:35 |

| bioterror | faq has guide | 20:40 |
| phillw | FernandoCueva: no one does (although the MOTU's come pretty close :P ) | 20:41 |
| Unit193 | I have needed to generate a xorg.conf in the past to get anything good. | 20:41 |
| MrChrisDruif | phillw; you lie ;-) | 20:42 |
| FernandoCueva | how to find out my native res from my lcd | 20:43 |
| bioterror | from google for example | 20:43 |
| FernandoCueva | I don't it knows | 20:44 |
| bioterror | usually monitors says "this is wrong resolution" | 20:44 |
| FernandoCueva | I don't think it knows that | 20:44 |
| bioterror | I bet it knows it | 20:44 |
| FernandoCueva | my lcd does 1024 with some other os but not lubuntu | 20:44 |
| FernandoCueva | it did on windows too | 20:44 |
| bioterror | then 1024x768 it is | 20:45 |
| FernandoCueva | I used both tools cvt and gtf to find out mode numbers | 20:45 |
| AngelForget | lubuntu is very good | 20:46 |
| FernandoCueva | they were different but still got same error configure crtc 0 failed | 20:47 |
| FernandoCueva | I hate how lubuntu doesn't provide the application bar I have to alt tab to go to the next application | 20:49 |
| bioterror | what? | 20:50 |
| iceroot | FernandoCueva: working fine here | 20:50 |
| FernandoCueva | when you open multiple applications the bars aren't on the taskbar | 20:50 |
| iceroot | FernandoCueva: by default you have | 20:51 |
| AngelForget | look what else the bar Aplications FernandoCueva | 20:51 |
| FernandoCueva | if you minimze an application they hide | 20:52 |
| FernandoCueva | no way to retrieve them by with alt tab | 20:52 |
| AngelForget | looks good in the properties of the bar | 20:53 |
| iceroot | i have no idea what you are talking about, sorry | 20:54 |
| FernandoCueva | the properties of the bar lack option to make applications visibile on the taskbar | 20:55 |
| AngelForget | else is a friend tester chan ? | 20:55 |
| FernandoCueva | well I'm using 10.04 that's maybe why | 20:55 |
| AngelForget | Lubuntu 12.04 Beta 2 is a bomb can not wait "now that the final version comes out | 20:57 |
| AngelForget | very very Congratulations to all the staff | 20:59 |
| FernandoCueva | is it that good | 20:59 |
| phillw | FernandoCueva: 10.04 has not had anything back ported to it. We simply lack (wo)man-power to have someone work on the back ports. We want to backport, but alas not enough people. | 21:05 |
| phillw | AngelForget: thanks, yeah, it is looking good :D | 21:06 |
| AngelForget | hello phillw | 21:06 |
| FernandoCueva | I was recommened it because it was lts and because it suppose to have good support for old hadware | 21:07 |
| FernandoCueva | will the lubuntu 12.04 support my pentium 3 | 21:07 |
| AngelForget | phillw, I tested Ubuntu beta 2 in every way and only positive feedback if it were not for some small bugs | 21:08 |
| phillw | bioterror: you'll now better than me, with us dropping back to non-pae kernel, will Pentium 3 be supported? | 21:09 |
| phillw | or is it still an i686 only? | 21:10 |
| FernandoCueva | uname -rsnm gives me i686 | 21:11 |
| bioterror | i686 | 21:11 |
| bioterror | I think | 21:11 |
| Unit193 | FernandoCueva: grep pae /proc/cpuinfo | 21:11 |
| Unit193 | (Doesn't matter too much if they drop the kernel fully in .10) | 21:11 |
| phillw | Unit193: pae is no longer required, we switched kernel | 21:12 |
| Unit193 | phillw: See line above. | 21:12 |
| MrChrisDruif | Thanks AngelForget | 21:12 |
| FernandoCueva | what about that command Unit193 | 21:12 |
| FernandoCueva | there are flags | 21:13 |
| AngelForget | hello great MrChrisDruif | 21:13 |
| Unit193 | Then you should be set later on at least. | 21:13 |
| FernandoCueva | Unit193, what was that command for | 21:19 |
| Unit193 | Check if your computer supports the PAE kernel. | 21:19 |
| phillw | FernandoCueva: as usual, the release team have provided what seems like a good answer, but would need testing | 21:32 |
| phillw | 12.04 will run on older CPUs provided that it's installed with Lubuntu or Xubuntu, or that the -generic kernel is otherwise installed / kept installed by hand somehow (e.g. on upgrades) | 21:33 |
| phillw | I don't happen to remember the full CPU list off the top of my head, but Pentium 3 sounds comfortably within range for -generic | 21:33 |
| * phillw has removed his name, as it was a PM | 21:33 | |
