[09:29] !java | folo [09:29] folo: 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. [09:31] folo, sudo apt-get install openjdk-6-jre icedtea6-plugin [09:31] thanks [09:31] nothing comes up on package install [09:32] dpkg -L |grep openjdk [09:32] does it prompt you something?

[09:50] what do you mean [09:50] i have a wired connection [09:50] im on a computer [09:50] you could upgrade your lubuntu 10.10 to 11.10 [09:51] ok [09:52] command for it? [09:52] sudo do-release-upgrade -p [09:52] is it still as good as 10.10 [09:52] speed wise [09:52] even better [09:52] :D [09:52] where can i find the release notes? [09:55] why is it taking so long to calculate changes [09:55] becouse [09:56] there's lots of changes [09:56] folo, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Lubuntu/Announcement/11.10 [09:57] isnt this 11.04 u gave me? [09:57] https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Lubuntu/Announcement/NattyNarwhal [10:12] bioterror [10:12] do i have to reboot [10:12] when its finished [10:12] I would suggest [10:13] ok [10:13] as probably your kernel gets updated a little newer one [10:13] and hal gets removed [10:13] whats hal? [10:13] hardware access layer or what was it [10:13] !hal [10:13] hal is in the process of being deprecated. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Halsectomy and http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hardware_abstraction_layer for more info. [10:13] !kernel [10:13] The core of Ubuntu is the Linux kernel: see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel - You shouldn't have to compile your own, and if you need to troubleshoot issues, you can try a !Mainline kernel instead, but if you insist, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel/Compile (see also !Stages) [10:13] abstraction ! [10:50] bioterror [10:50] how long will it take for me to upgrade to 11.04 [10:50] its still going lol [10:50] its up to all fonts downloaded [10:52] !terminal [10:52] The linux terminal or command-line interface is very powerful. Open a terminal via Applications -> Accessories -> Terminal (Gnome), K-menu -> System -> Konsole (KDE), or Menu -> Accessories -> LXTerminal (LXDE). Guide: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UsingTheTerminal [10:52] !api [10:53] !dpkg [10:53] dpkg is the Debian package maintenance system, which together with apt forms the basic Ubuntu package management toolkit. [10:54] !lubuntu [10:54] lubuntu is Ubuntu with LXDE instead of !GNOME as desktop environment, which makes it extremely lightweight. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Lubuntu - /join #lubuntu for lubuntu support. [10:54] !gnome [10:54] GNOME is the default !desktop environment on Ubuntu up to 10.10 To install it from Kubuntu or Xubuntu, type « sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop » in a !terminal. [10:57] BIOTERROR [10:57] you there? [10:57] anyone here? [11:30] hello to everybody [11:30] may I ask a little help? [11:40] jvh: sure [11:41] iceroot: thanks, I noticed that 3d acceleration is not workng on my videocard [11:41] iceroot: even if the card is supported. ow can I enable it? [11:41] *how [11:42] jvh: what card are you using [11:42] jvh: normally the "problem" is that you are using the open-source driver which is not supporting 3d [11:42] it's a mobility radeon 9700 [11:42] !ati | jvh [11:42] jvh: For Ati/NVidia/Matrox video cards, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VideoDriverHowto [11:44] ok so tried lspc -nn | grep VGA as in the guide, and the card is recognized [11:45] but LIBGL_DEBUG=verbose glxinfo gives me software rasterizer [11:51] can I do something to it? [11:55] jvh: you installed the non-free ati/amd driver? [11:56] the fglrx? [11:56] if i am correct its done with the program "jockey-gtk" [11:56] ah no never tried it [11:56] I'll try it now [11:57] fglrx seems to be the non-free driver (never used ati/amd cards) [11:58] jockey seems to be for gnome, does it work even on lubuntu? [12:01] ok installed jockey-gtk [12:01] now how should I use it? [12:01] hi :p [12:10] I'm trying fglrx, need to reboot [12:15] I installed fglrx but the control panel can't be opened, it shows an error [12:15] any suggestion? === danstone1 is now known as danstoner [16:25] can somebody call me if you can change the menu set-up, like to make it transparent or anything else [16:50] seems like we are not calling to him [16:51] ;) [17:17] How can I upgrade Lubuntu 11.10 to Lubuntu 12.04 ? [17:19] I wouldn't advice to do that :p [17:19] But if you want to, you have to wait for the official release of 12.04 [17:19] at the end of april 2012 [17:20] ahh [17:20] ok [17:20] :D [17:21] I have some bug that I can not solve and I think they may be solved in Lubuntu 12.04 [17:38] milen8204: hmm, I would recommend fresh install :) had some trouble while upgrading previous releases :p [17:46] ok [17:47] i can make bootable USB [17:48] I got error masage: No defaulf or UI directive found [17:48] i have made folders syslinux and syslinux.cfg, and syslinux.bin but didnt start again [17:49] USB starts on my laptop, nut didnt on my PC [18:00] hello [18:00] Lubuntu won't let me log into fluxbox [18:13] Hello [18:15] hi all i am Sara [18:16] Hello [18:16] help me i am instal lubuntu [18:16] make irssi and xchat [18:16] and update [18:16] is all ok ?

[18:27] I have the USB key, and I have the ISO. [18:31] Sara, you have lubuntu installed or what? [18:43] Hello [18:43] Sara, are you running off the LiveCD or is Lubuntu installed? [18:44] Lubuntu will not let me run anyothger wm or de [18:44] anyother* [18:44] i am instal for disc [18:44] lubuntu [19:01] I need help, lubuntu will not let me change my desktop enviroment [19:01] Hm. What desktop environment are you trying to change it to? [19:01] I tried to change it to fluxbox and e17 [19:02] it just blinks and sends me back at the login screen [19:02] I'll try it out to see if it's your computer [19:02] k [19:05] herpy: did the exact same thing [19:05] is it a bug? [19:05] I'm not sure [19:06] I just tried fluxbox [19:06] odd [19:06] it won't let me use KDE-openbox or Gnome -openbox either [19:07] Hold on [19:10] Here is the fix [19:11] ok [19:11] sudo apt-get install numlockx parcellite [19:11] ahh okay [19:11] Thanks [19:11] I tried that now I'm in Fluxbox [19:11] sweet [19:11] let me know if it works for you [19:11] sure thing. [19:13] seems like it's working so far [19:14] Nice [19:14] and i'm in lubuntu with unity [19:15] Yay it's fixed [19:15] yep [19:15] I'm going back to lxde [19:15] ok [19:18] Looks like i might have to uninstall numlockx, because i'm on a keyboard with no true numberpad. [19:19] I though all keyboards came with a numpad [19:19] Not all, unfortunately [19:19] ah [19:20] in order for me to use it, i have to hit fn+f11 [19:20] I see [19:20] The second part of my nick is my laptop model [19:21] Acer AOA150, also known as Aspire One ZG5 [19:21] Clever! [19:21] Yep. [19:21] I just pulled my name out my ass and it stuck with me XD [19:22] nice xD . I came up with Skater when I was 10ish. [19:22] ah [19:23] In 13 days i'm gonna be 15 [19:23] Ah a young linux user, nice [19:23] Yup. [19:24] I started when Ubuntu Jaunty was out [19:24] I was like 12 or 13 [19:24] Might as well learn to work with various operating systems while you're young, especially because I wish to become a network adminstrator. [19:24] True true [19:24] I switched to linux cause I kept getting Blue Screens [19:25] Ah, i see. [19:25] Was back when Vista was the newest windows [19:25] Vista... yuck. [19:25] So I put Linux on my computer then I get new computer with win7 on it [19:25] same thing [19:26] Ah, ok [19:26] Could I curse Vista too :D [19:26] ecept this time it was fake anti malware rouges [19:26] like thinkpoint [19:26] We probably should move to #lubuntu-offtopic, since this is for pretty much support only :P [19:26] true [19:37] hello all [19:37] has anyone tried installing lubuntu from debootstrap? [19:37] instead of using ubuntu-server base install? [19:38] would it work? do I have to be on the watch for something in particular? [19:38] this is for a dell x200 :: Pentium III 800Mhz, 320MB ram, 40GB HDD [19:58] hello all [15:37] has anyone tried installing lubuntu from debootstrap? [15:37] instead of using ubuntu-server base install? [15:38] would it work? do I have to be on the watch for something in particular? [15:38] this is for a dell x200 :: Pentium III 800Mhz, 320MB ram, 40GB HDD [20:07] buonasera [20:08] ho un problema con lubuntu [20:08] e sembra pure piuttosto serio [20:08] italian or english? [20:10] english [20:10] ah ok :) [20:10] hi [20:10] i'll try to explain my problem in english [20:10] when i want to refresh repositories with update-manager [20:11] it shows an alert message [20:11] saying something that connection with daemon has "died" [20:11] i think he talks about aptdaemon... [20:11] *it [20:12] if i write "sudo apt-get update" [20:12] it doesn't do anything [20:12] terminal comes back to prompt... [20:12] That's odd. [20:12] what's the problem? === Myrtti_ is now known as Myrtti [20:13] I honestly don't know. Mine has a lot of lines after i type that. then it goes back to my prompt [20:13] my terminal has no line and comes back to prompt [20:14] I honestly don't know why it's doing that [20:14] if i launch aptdaemon, it SEEMS working normally [20:14] until it crashes when i try to make a refresh on update-manager [20:14] showing me that error [20:14] That's odd [20:15] I'm new to Lubuntu so I really don't know [20:15] the error in detail is "it seems that the daemon died." [20:15] copy the error message [20:15] and paste it here [20:15] i kill the daemon with a knife or a gun? :D [20:16] i try to translate the entire error message in english [20:17] "Connection to the daemon has been lost. Probably the daemon in background has gone in crash." [20:17] this is the error that update-manager shows me [20:17] and if i click on "Detail" [20:17] it says "It seems that the daemon died." [20:18] no more... [20:19] ah, this is lubuntu oneiric [20:20] i'm using lubuntu oneiric and it's not doing that for me [20:20] i'm happy for you :) [20:21] you may have to reinstall lubuntu [20:22] mmm… that's a good news [20:22] :( [20:22] sigh [20:23] you could just "upgrade" and hopefully it would work [20:23] already done [20:23] ah wait [20:23] upgrade you mean: sudp apt-get upgrade? [20:24] *sudo [20:24] it might work, [20:24] ah ok [20:24] just done [20:24] nothing :( [20:25] ok, don't worry [20:25] thank you for you help and your patience [20:25] bye bye [21:18] hello [21:18] how much ram and proccesador do I need to run lubuntu? [21:37] hello, anyone around? I am really confused [21:37] Desktop: [21:37] These versions are suitable for most people. Do not try to install 64 Bit on a 32 Bit machine. Installing 32 Bit onto 64 Bit is totally safe. The official versions are available as a Lubuntu 11.10 Standard. A secondary iso server is available at Lafibre. [21:37] Alternate: [21:37] These versions are for those computers with less than 160Mb of RAM (A guide line is 192MB if you are using internal graphics) and / or with less than 4.3GB Hard Disk. Head over to Lubuntu alternate for the alternate suite. The alternate versions are different during installation and they can not run in live mode, but the finished system is the same as when using the standard desktop ISO. [21:38] Desktop CD [21:38] The desktop CD allows you to try Lubuntu without changing your computer at all, and at your option to install it permanently later. This type of CD is what most people will want to use. You will need at least 384MiB of RAM to install from this CD. [21:38] So I need 384MB of RAM in order to run the Desktop CD? [21:38] I have 256 and it is Pentium 3 [21:39] is Alternate install CD what I need? [21:43] I would go with alternate [21:45] herpy: you use lubuntu? [21:46] I use lubuntu, and i would probably go with alternate [21:46] Ok, I have 10GB hdd and 256ram is P3 can the installation take more than 1 hour? [21:46] Or just got frozen [21:49] yah the isntaller locks up for a while sometimes on <400MB of ram [21:49] ok, so I download the alternate .iso, can I just use unetbootin to install it in the usb flash memory and boot from it? [21:50] i think 5 hours is the limit [21:50] 5 hours?! [21:50] either that or wait for it to unfreeze [21:50] Windows Xp runs fine in that machine [21:50] and takes like 40 minutes to install [21:50] how long did it lock up 4 u? [21:50] All I want to try is to see if runs better than XP [21:51] i really don't know how long it takes for a 256 MB machine [21:52] how much ram you have? [21:52] p3 as well? [21:54] i run lubuntu on 8GB [21:54] :) [21:54] and why would that be useful? [21:54] really if you can chill for a few hours, just wait for the installer to finish [21:55] and let us know exactly how long it took [21:55] well only cost $50 [21:55] for the RAM [21:55] I probably should have bought 16GB for $90 [21:56] there is a limit of ram you can add [21:56] to a machine [21:56] no real limit for servers right now [21:56] they can have ridiculous amounts of ram [21:56] for running mysql server [21:57] and you run one? or a home machine [21:57] i built a new pc in february [21:57] but i'm still doing stuff on the old machine, like running bittorrent [21:58] and really I haven't needed more than 4GB for anything except maybe vms [21:59] I have an old machine in the office [21:59] I just need to run a browser to surf [21:59] I won't even run any other app [21:59] you think lubuntu is the option to me? [21:59] chromium is a memory hog [22:00] you might have problems opening more than 5 tabs [22:00] but you should definitely try it [22:00] you might like it [22:00] has chromium built in? [22:00] yah [22:00] but i use firefox 11 [22:00] firefox seems to handle lots of tabs better [22:01] what about opera [22:01] heard uses less resources [22:01] i donno about opera [22:01] i'm sure there's a linux version if you prefer it [22:01] you ever used synaptic package manager? [22:01] yes [22:01] :) [22:01] ok [22:01] will try out tomorrow [22:02] :) [22:02] thanks [22:02] good night [22:42] can i restart lubuntu to the date i install it? [22:42] You have to set your BIOS in order to do so [22:42] BIOS? [22:43] That splash screen before you see the bootloader [22:44] set to what [22:44] You either have to hit F2, or Del to see it. It's a blueish screen with words on top of it. [22:45] Read up on your computer to see what key you have to press [22:45] i know it's the both of them [22:45] f1 [22:46] ah ok [22:46] then what next if i may ask [22:47] to set the date it's usually under Basic / Standard system settings. [22:48] I know it's not under advanced. [22:49]
