| danel | I don't use ubuntu interface, only gnome and unity compiz plug in and kde, I'd do no good in a light weight section, I'm out....... | 00:10 |
|---|---|---|
| danel | sorry | 00:10 |
| danel | I use ubuntu, DON'T use lubuntu | 00:10 |
| FernandoCueva | who can help me increase size and performance with lubuntu | 00:47 |
| reach | hey, what format should i get apps in for lubuntu 11.10? deb or tar | 00:50 |
| Unit193 | !repoi | 00:51 |
| Unit193 | !repo | 00:51 |
| ubottu | The packages in Ubuntu are divided into several sections.

| Unit193 | use the repo, don't normally download from sites if you can avoid it. | 00:51 |
| reach | unit193: are you talking to me? | 00:53 |
| Unit193 | Yep. | 00:53 |
| reach | oh lol, so whats repo | 00:54 |
| Unit193 | The bot just linked to them, you use synaptic or apt-get to install software. | 00:55 |
| reach | so if i wanted chrome what do i try using apt-get | 00:56 |
| Unit193 | Well, chrome isn't there, but chromium is. | 00:57 |
| reach | oh o.k. what about midori | 00:58 |
| Unit193 | sudo apt-get install mirodi | 00:58 |
| Unit193 | !software | reach | 00:59 |
| ubottu | reach: A general introduction to the ways software can be installed, removed and managed in Ubuntu can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoftwareManagement - See also !Packages, !Equivalents | 00:59 |
| Unit193 | https://www.google.com/chrome?platform=linux if you must have chrome rather than chromium. | 00:59 |
| reach | oh one sec | 01:00 |
| reach | isnt it midori and not mirodi | 01:01 |
| reach | ? | 01:01 |
| Unit193 | Typo. | 01:03 |
| chris_ | how do i fully install firefox so it shows in my sys tray and start options? | 02:19 |
| Unit193 | Tray and "start option"? | 02:22 |
| Unit193 | That's not the normal install. | 02:22 |
| chris_ | well i dont know how to to do it | 02:22 |
| chris_ | i never had a problem in ubuntu when i installed firefox but it seems everything is different in lubuntu and I cant install it so it shows up anywhere | 02:23 |
| Unit193 | Menu > Internet > Firefox | 02:23 |
| chris_ | yeah....no its not there, it is not anywhere....I have to go into the downloads folder>firefox>firefox.exe to run firefox | 02:24 |
| Unit193 | Errr.... | 02:24 |
| chris_ | the icon has not shown up anywhere at all even the desktop | 02:24 |
| Unit193 | What? | 02:24 |
| Unit193 | How did you install it? | 02:24 |
| chris_ | i just downloaded it from mozilla | 02:24 |
| Unit193 | !software | 02:24 |
| ubottu | A general introduction to the ways software can be installed, removed and managed in Ubuntu can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoftwareManagement - See also !Packages, !Equivalents | 02:24 |
| Unit193 | You should really use the repos... | 02:25 |
| chris_ | how do i do that??? | 02:25 |
| Unit193 | .exe is a windows program. | 02:25 |
| chris_ | whatever the "executable" file is is what i have to click on | 02:25 |
| Unit193 | The link ubottu has it, but in short, open synaptic and search or open a terminal and type sudo apt-get install firefox | 02:25 |
| chris_ | i havent even touched the surface of linux so I am still learning how to isntall things through the terminal and understanding the terminology | 02:25 |
| chris_ | should i uninstall what i downloaded? | 02:26 |
| Unit193 | https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoftwareManagement should help. | 02:26 |
| Unit193 | Would be a bery good idea. | 02:26 |
| chris_ | i know you should always install stuff through the terminal but sometimes I have issues doing it | 02:26 |
| Unit193 | Don'thave to use the terminal, you can use synaptic. | 02:27 |
| chris_ | E: Package 'firefox' has no installation candidate.......this is what it says in terminal | 02:27 |
| Unit193 | https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SynapticHowto | 02:27 |
| chris_ | twiztid | 02:27 |
| Unit193 | try sudo apt-get update then the install command. | 02:28 |
| chris_ | disregard the twiztid thing....meant for another chat | 02:28 |
| chris_ | this synaptic thing is making no sense to me sorry | 02:33 |
| chris_ | i figured it out | 02:36 |
| chris_ | @Unit193 thanks I figured it out | 02:37 |
| Unit193 | Yep, synaptic isn't too hard, but it may be confusing for someone that hasn't used it before. | 02:37 |
| Unit193 | In the next version there's an even friendlier way to do it. | 02:38 |
| chris_ | i did it in the terminal, i will have to mess with the synaptic thing.....another question, yesterday my time read a 12 hour time format and now it switched back to 24 hour....how do i switch it back? | 02:40 |
| Unit193 | Change the clock format to something like %r | 02:42 |
| Unit193 | Right click > settings | 02:42 |
| Unit193 | (Clock settings, not panel) | 02:43 |
| chris_ | ok almost there....how do i take the seconds off? | 02:43 |
| Unit193 | Use a different time setting. | 02:44 |
| Unit193 | http://linux.die.net/man/3/strftime list of choices (you can combine, and it's accessible from your system via man strftime terminal command) | 02:46 |
| chris_ | thanks | 02:53 |
| chris_ | later everyone | 02:53 |
| iceroot | what metapackage is pulling the smallest lxde-env? | 07:22 |
| Unit193 | lxde-core or lubuntu-core | 07:25 |
| iceroot | Unit193: thx | 07:28 |

| skedar | hi, I bought an EEE PC, 1025C, quite a new model I think, I'd like to find out whether there is any drivers support for it on Linux since I'd love it to run Lubuntu, but I didn't find anyone who tried to run linux on it by googling, does anyone have this model here? | 17:05 |
| bioterror | try Live? | 17:06 |
| bioterror | put it on USB and give it a spin | 17:06 |
| skedar | yeah I want to do it today =) was just curious about the drivers, I'm pretty sure it will work somehow on generic ones but I wonder how the battery will be handled for instance, whether I'll still have a good battery capacity | 17:08 |
| bioterror | that's why the live environment rules | 17:09 |
| bioterror | you can try it out and see if it works out of the box ;) | 17:10 |
| bioterror | no need for installing | 17:10 |
| skedar | I guess, but I don't want to wait 10 hours to see if my battery still works that long on Lubuntu =D | 17:14 |
| Mordy | hi | 17:43 |

| milen8204 | but | 19:29 |
| milen8204 | I can watch clips in others sites like vbox7.com for example | 19:29 |
| === TheCheggs_AFK is now known as TheCheggs | ||
| TheCheggs | i think i may know of a fix for your problem milen8204, it worked for me | 19:34 |
| TheCheggs | http://askubuntu.com/questions/117127/flash-video-appears-blue | 19:35 |
| milen8204 | TheCheggs, ok thanks for information | 19:35 |
| TheCheggs | getting rid of libvdpau1 always fixxed it for me, but you cannot use any sort of mplayer after removing it | 19:35 |
| milen8204 | TheCheggs, can you use VLC player ? | 19:39 |
| TheCheggs | yep | 19:39 |
| milen8204 | ok I will remove it :D | 19:39 |
| TheCheggs | :) | 19:39 |
| TheCheggs | audacious and vlc still work fine, please excuse my spelling. it isn't my strong suit :) | 19:40 |

| milen8204 | :( | 19:43 |
| TheCheggs | did you kill the webbrowser and start it back up? | 19:43 |
| TheCheggs | and if that doesn't work then try rebooting, i didn't think i had to but could be wrong | 19:45 |
| milen8204 | i am going to reboot | 19:48 |

| TheCheggs | hmm | 19:56 |

| milen8204 | yes I did that ins Synaptic | 19:57 |

| ingmar_ | hi.. can anyone look and see whats wrong with a simple script i wrote? whats that site where you can copy paste your code? | 21:32 |
| bioterror | !paste | 21:32 |
| ubottu | 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. | 21:32 |
| ingmar_ | ty | 21:32 |
| ingmar_ | http://paste.ubuntu.com/915215/ its really simple just a script that counts.. or should | 21:33 |
| MrChrisDruif | ingmar_; is this line correct? number=$((number + 1)) | 21:36 |
| ingmar_ | yes.. it should count up $until it reaches $number2 right? | 21:37 |
| ingmar_ | * it should count up $number till it reaches $number2 | 21:37 |
| MrChrisDruif | number=$(($number + 1)) or just number+=1 ? | 21:39 |
| MrChrisDruif | Probably the first | 21:39 |
| jmarsden|work | ingmar_: The increment line can be written as ((number+=1)) | 22:43 |
| MrChrisDruif | jmarsden|work; current line doesn't work right? | 22:44 |
| jmarsden|work | The extra $ at the front of the (( causes issues, it tries to evaluate the resulting expression. | 22:44 |
| jmarsden|work | ((n+1)) is an example in the Advanced Bash Scripting Guide... so that way *definitely* works :) | 22:45 |
| jmarsden|work | ((n+=1)) I meant | 22:46 |
| MrChrisDruif | ^_^ | 22:46 |
| AMIGAS | how do i change the wallpaper? | 23:42 |
| wxl | AMIGAS: right click on desktop > Desktop Preferences …should be obvious at that point ;) | 23:45 |
| AMIGAS | wxl: it's not there | 23:48 |
| wxl | AMIGAS: strange. it's here. last item in the context menu. what do you get? i.e. what are all the options? | 23:48 |
| wxl | AMIGAS: try hitting alt-f2 and enter `pcmanfm --desktop-pref` (without the quotes) and hit enter | 23:51 |
| AMIGAS | wxl: terminal, browser, desktops, ob conf, reconfigure, restart ans exit | 23:52 |
| wxl | while you're in that dialog from the above, click on the advanced tab and UNcheck the "show menus provided by window managers…" option | 23:52 |
| wxl | which will fix the right click menu next time | 23:53 |
| wxl | ^ AMIGAS | 23:53 |
| AMIGAS | where is that? | 23:55 |
| wxl | if you do what i said above you'll see | 23:56 |
| wxl | AMIGAS: try hitting alt-f2 and enter `pcmanfm --desktop-pref` (without the quotes) and hit enter | 23:56 |
| AMIGAS | ok i see then | 23:57 |
| AMIGAS | lol oh thanks but why couldn't i find it anywhere? | 23:58 |
| wxl | the answer to your problem? it's in the faq | 23:58 |
| wxl | it would have been nice if we would have used the openbox menu (the one you were originally seeing) for our context menu but to keep the theme looking the same we used a different one | 23:59 |
| wxl | if you accidentially hit that checkbox i mentioned, it just disappears with no apparent solution | 23:59 |
| wxl | so it's got its pros and cons | 23:59 |
