wxl | do we have a guide for installing wifi drivers and such? i.e. figuring out what you have and where to get it and blah blah blah | 04:32 |
---|---|---|
Unit193 | https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs has a ton, not sure how much is good. | 04:34 |
Unit193 | I think jockey will even pick up some if you have ethernet plugged in. | 04:34 |
wxl | yeah that's the problem-- no ethernet | 04:34 |
wxl | so i'm advising someone to just go download it on another computer | 04:34 |
wxl | i should probably offer the link for installing software from offline | 04:35 |
TheCheggs | i know this is more then likely a stupid question but have you guys heard of lxmed? | 05:06 |
hosoka | hello all | 10:14 |

Skater-AOA150 | I'm having some trouble getting Samba to work :\ | 10:25 |
bioterror | Skater-AOA150, what's your problem? | 10:26 |
Skater-AOA150 | When installing it, it's giving me an error | 10:26 |
bioterror | and the error is? | 10:26 |
Skater-AOA150 | i'll copy it | 10:26 |
Skater-AOA150 | http://pastebin.com/DjD8pfWw | 10:27 |
bioterror | looks weird | 10:28 |
Skater-AOA150 | yeah, i know. | 10:28 |
bioterror | is there a reason why you prefer using "samba4" instead of just samba? | 10:29 |
Skater-AOA150 | samba was acting up... | 10:30 |
Skater-AOA150 | and dang it... Readonly filesystem... :\ | 10:30 |
bioterror | well | 10:30 |
bioterror | that samba4 tells you to remove your smb.conf | 10:30 |
bioterror | if you noticed | 10:30 |
bioterror | ProvisioningError: guess_names: 'realm =' was not specified in supplied /etc/samba/smb.conf. Please remove the smb.conf file and let provision generate it | 10:31 |
bioterror | you did not apt-get purge your samba? | 10:31 |
Skater-AOA150 | yeah | 10:31 |
Skater-AOA150 | brb gotta get out of this Read-only file system | 10:31 |
Skater_2015 | crap... looks like i'm gonna have to do a reinstallation. | 10:33 |
bioterror | :D | 10:33 |
Skater_2015 | Btw it's skater-aoa150. | 10:33 |
bioterror | I suggest | 10:34 |
bioterror | you boot into live media | 10:34 |
bioterror | and you run fsck for your hard drive | 10:34 |
bioterror | or what ever it is | 10:34 |
bioterror | might get fixed | 10:34 |
Skater_2015 | yeah | 10:34 |
Skater_2015 | I know that drive's pretty flaky. | 10:34 |
Skater_2015 | but the worst part is i gotta tear the whole computer apart just to get to the drive | 10:36 |
Skater_2015 | :\ CRAP... | 10:39 |
Skater_2015 | The partition Lubuntu was installed on was ext4, now it's Unknown... :\ | 10:40 |
morri | You know , I learnt one thing- My problem with Banshee that occurred yesterday definitely must have soemthing to do with the internet connection of banshee | 11:04 |
morri | While my internet was off (happens sometimes for 5 min) I put banshee on, and disabled the Internet related functions | 11:04 |
morri | it is working fine like that, so the bug must be somewhere in there | 11:04 |
Llywelyn | hello :) i have a very short question: do you think that I can install lubuntu on my machine ? (PII @ 300mhz, 200Mb ram, 8Mb GC) | 11:20 |
morri | yes | 11:20 |
morri | not sure but I#ll just try it | 11:20 |
morri | i have a pentium 3 | 11:20 |
morri | and runs fine | 11:20 |
Llywelyn | what is its frequency ? | 11:20 |
morri | 1000mhz | 11:20 |
pAt_ | I am not quite sure about the RAM, maybe you have to use the minimal iso | 11:21 |
Llywelyn | thank you :) | 11:22 |
morri | llywelyn other wise this might be something for you colibri os | 11:22 |
Llywelyn | well I already run Debian and W2K | 11:23 |
Llywelyn | however I have driver issues with debian | 11:23 |
Llywelyn | (w/ my GC, SiS 6326) | 11:23 |
Llywelyn | will try lubuntu right now, thank you guys :) | 11:25 |

Drunk | Does Redshift work with Lubuntu and LXDE? | 15:02 |
bioterror | we use GTK | 15:04 |
bioterror | hard to say | 15:04 |
bioterror | try it out :D | 15:05 |
Drunk | Yeah, it didn't work. | 15:06 |
Drunk | Might try f.lux, instead, even though that's in itself hasn't been very good in the past. | 15:06 |
ryan_moore | hey everyone | 16:36 |
ryan_moore | i'm a complete newbie lubuntu. i just installed it on a donated Acer extensa 4620z. I have a couple questions if anyones available to give me a hand | 16:36 |
OldManShoes | What's up? | 16:38 |
ryan_moore | Well in organizing my taskbar it seems I've deleted the "power off" icon from the far right. I know this isn't a huge deal because I can logoff from the menu, but I liked having it there. I looked for it in the Application Launch Bar options but it wasn't there. | 16:40 |
OldManShoes | It's an application launch bar applet that you can edit in the panel settings to be just the power button. | 16:41 |
bioterror | hands up who wants to make a FAQ about returning that button back to lxpanel | 16:42 |
ryan_moore | Ack. I can't seem to find it on the available applications list anywhere | 16:42 |
OldManShoes | Yeah I can't either, but it sounds like bioterror knows :P | 16:42 |
ryan_moore | This is what I get for not just leaving well enough alone hah | 16:43 |
bioterror | as a reward he will get lots of appreciation and our endless respect for doing it | 16:43 |
bioterror | and he will be treated like a king among the newcomers | 16:43 |
OldManShoes | How about a kind of awesome dude instead of king? | 16:43 |
bioterror | that also, he will be nominated as the "awesome dude", like Big Lebowski | 16:44 |
bioterror | oeh noe! I removed that button now | 16:44 |
OldManShoes | So, where in the applications list is the Shutdown option then Mr. Big Lebowski? | 16:44 |
ryan_moore | Oh great | 16:44 |
OldManShoes | I'm curious because usually I can find stuff and I am stumped now | 16:45 |
ryan_moore | Is there anyway to just kill my panels and "refresh" it somehow? To bring back the standard one? | 16:46 |
bioterror | yes | 16:46 |
bioterror | actually! | 16:46 |
bioterror | hahaha | 16:46 |
bioterror | you can copy & paste that stuff into there | 16:46 |
bioterror | damn, I need my another laptop | 16:47 |
bioterror | wait a sec! | 16:47 |
ryan_moore | Well, at least I have a good "How I started out using Lubuntu" story now | 16:49 |
OldManShoes | Hehe | 16:49 |
bioterror | wife has put it some where | 16:49 |
ryan_moore | "I removed my power button and nobody on the irc channel had any clue what to do because they were all intelligent enough not to delete theirs" | 16:49 |
ryan_moore | haha | 16:49 |
bioterror | ryan_moore, something like that | 16:50 |
bioterror | if you can wait 5 or 10 minutes | 16:50 |
bioterror | I will solve this problem to you | 16:50 |
OldManShoes | Isn't that what using Linux is all about though? Doing something because you can and then trying to fix it? | 16:50 |
bioterror | and make a FAQ about it when I put kids into bed | 16:50 |
ryan_moore | Sure. I'm in no rush. Trying to figure out what I need to do to optimize my system for low latency audio recording right now | 16:50 |
bioterror | ryan_moore, you want that kernel | 16:50 |
ryan_moore | I looked for the rt-kernel in Synaptic and it didn't even come up as an option. | 16:51 |
ryan_moore | So I'm assuming 11.10 just comes with it? | 16:51 |
bioterror | are you ready? | 16:54 |
bioterror | you need to open a terminal | 16:55 |
ryan_moore | I'm ready | 16:55 |
bioterror | then edit file ~/.config/lxpanel/Lubuntu/panels/panel | 16:55 |
bioterror | go to the bottom of the file | 16:55 |
bioterror | http://paste.ubuntu.com/925136/ and paste that stuff to the bottom | 16:56 |
bioterror | then | 16:56 |
bioterror | alt+f2 | 16:56 |
bioterror | killall lxpanel | 16:56 |
bioterror | use that open terminal | 16:56 |
bioterror | and run command: lxpanel -p Lubuntu & | 16:56 |
ryan_moore | what would be the command to open/edit that first file? | 16:57 |
bioterror | leafpad for example | 16:57 |
ryan_moore | ok | 16:57 |
bioterror | I've nagged that "run program" thing in alt+f2 should not be part of the lxpanel | 16:59 |
bioterror | but I speak to the deaf ears | 16:59 |
bioterror | wonder why I prefer gmrun instead of "lxpanelctl run" | 17:00 |
ryan_moore | Tada | 17:03 |
ryan_moore | Awesome. Thanks so much! | 17:04 |
bioterror | np | 17:04 |
bioterror | and you saved your configurations | 17:04 |
bioterror | as I'm running 12.04 with 11.10 theme ;) | 17:04 |
ryan_moore | I need to take a look at some screenshots of other peoples desktops. Trying to optimize my workflow and I know what I want but not where I want it. | 17:05 |
Maximoto | me too | 17:05 |
bioterror | https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Lubuntu/Documentation/FAQ/Guides#Revert_power.2BAC8-logout_button_back_to_LXpanel | 17:10 |

bioterror | next time someone has this issue, you can point him to that ;) | 17:10 |
ryan_moore | Thanks bioterror | 17:13 |
Maximoto | what are some good lightweight browsers to use | 17:36 |
bioterror | midori | 17:36 |
Unit193 | Midori, arora, xxxterm. | 17:37 |
bioterror | the ones with "features" | 17:37 |
bioterror | ofcourse you can view pages with telnet too | 17:37 |
Unit193 | uzbl if you use vim. :P | 17:37 |
Unit193 | w3m? | 17:37 |
bioterror | xxxterm if you use wim | 17:39 |
Maximoto | w3m doesn't work | 17:40 |
bioterror | w3m was outed by links / elinks | 17:40 |
bioterror | ousted | 17:40 |
bioterror | lynx still hangs there! | 17:40 |
Maximoto | lynx isn't available | 17:41 |
Unit193 | Sure it works, but good to know about it being outdated. | 17:42 |
Maximoto | any of them use less memory | 17:46 |
Maximoto | unit193: out of the ones you have mention which one is very very lightweight | 17:50 |
Unit193 | I'd think elinks/links since it is terminal based. | 17:52 |
Maximoto | the browser runs in the terminal | 17:55 |
bioterror | which is awesome! | 17:55 |
Maximoto | whats the browser name? is it elinks or links | 17:56 |
bioterror | http://packages.ubuntu.com/oneiric/links | 17:56 |
bioterror | http://packages.ubuntu.com/oneiric/elinks | 17:57 |
Maximoto | oh thanks | 17:57 |
bioterror | http://packages.ubuntu.com/oneiric/links2 | 17:57 |
bioterror | links2 can do GTK! | 17:57 |
Maximoto | got to jet | 17:58 |
Maximoto | what does this mean when using the terminal install applications | 18:15 |
Maximoto | "dpkg: unrecoverable fatal error, aborting: | 18:15 |
Maximoto | fork failed: Cannot allocate memory | 18:15 |
Maximoto | E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (2) | 18:15 |
Maximoto | " | 18:15 |
bioterror | sounds weird | 18:16 |
bioterror | why fork cant allocate memory | 18:16 |
Maximoto | what i don't know | 18:16 |
bioterror | can you pastebin us command: free -m | 18:16 |
Maximoto | sure | 18:17 |
Maximoto | only 101 :( | 18:18 |
smile | Maximoto: :( | 18:18 |
Maximoto | used 99 :( | 18:19 |
Maximoto | 2 free :D :( | 18:19 |
bioterror | Maximoto, you have only 2MB of Free RAM? | 18:20 |
Maximoto | yes sad isn't it :d | 18:20 |
bioterror | that could be the problem | 18:20 |
bioterror | do you have a swap partition? | 18:20 |
Maximoto | no | 18:20 |
bioterror | :D | 18:21 |
bioterror | I rest my case | 18:21 |
Maximoto | well need to free up more memory | 18:21 |
smile | Maximoto: or launch Slitaz ;) booted with 34 MB RAM here :D | 18:24 |
Maximoto | launch slitaz... what's that | 18:26 |
bioterror | Maximoto, http://www.slitaz.org/en/#d20120410 | 18:26 |

genmail1977 | hi all, I've just updated (aftersomeweeks) my lubuntu packages and now when I use chrome I'm unable to see videos on youtube (missing plug-in). I tried to reinstall adobe flash player, but no success...any help? :'( | 19:56 |
genmail1977 | (it also often pops up that shockwave flash stopped working) | 19:57 |
bioterror | are you using flashplugin-installer? | 19:57 |
genmail1977 | before the update everything was fine | 19:57 |
Unit193 | Open a terminal and type dpkg -l |grep flash and pastebin or say what's in there, if it's anything other than adobe-flashplugin you should puirge and install that one. | 19:57 |
genmail1977 | I installed that package | 19:57 |
bioterror | Unit193, also partner repository? | 19:58 |
Unit193 | bioterror: I shouldn't assume they have it should I? :/ | 19:58 |
bioterror | :D | 19:58 |
genmail1977 | andrea@andrea-Amilo-A-Series:~$ dpkg -l |grep flash | 19:59 |
genmail1977 | ii adobe-flash-properties-gtk 11.2.202.228-0oneiric1 GTK+ control panel for Adobe Flash Player plugin version 11 | 19:59 |
genmail1977 | ii adobe-flashplugin 11.2.202.228-0oneiric1 Adobe Flash Player plugin version 11 | 19:59 |
genmail1977 | rc flashplugin-installer 11.2.202.228ubuntu0.11.10.1 Adobe Flash Player plugin installer | 19:59 |
bioterror | nice | 19:59 |
bioterror | wonder why it's messed up | 19:59 |
Unit193 | Have to purge -installer. | 19:59 |
bioterror | sudo apt-get purge flashplugin-installer | 19:59 |
bioterror | and restart your chromium | 20:00 |
genmail1977 | ok, thx :) | 20:00 |
Unit193 | Other fix is to install Chrome. | 20:00 |
bioterror | :D | 20:00 |
bioterror | and sell your soul to the devil himself | 20:00 |
Unit193 | Sorry, google owns it, I'd have to get it back first. | 20:01 |
Unit193 | Or forget about flash, that'll work as well. Flash has been a problem as of late. | 20:01 |
genmail1977 | restarted, it doesn't work | 20:02 |
bioterror | I have couple of friends who doesnt use flash at all | 20:02 |
genmail1977 | any other hint? | 20:03 |
bioterror | well as you stated | 20:03 |
bioterror | on youtube | 20:03 |
bioterror | use the youtube.com/html5 ;) | 20:03 |
genmail1977 | worth trying :) | 20:04 |
genmail1977 | no way :'( | 20:05 |
bioterror | html5 youtube works flawwlessly | 20:05 |
genmail1977 | it still writes missing plug-in | 20:06 |
bioterror | I joined the html5 beta | 20:10 |
genmail1977 | I think now it's worth installing firefox... | 20:10 |
bioterror | removed my adobe-flashplugin* | 20:10 |
bioterror | restarted browser | 20:10 |
bioterror | like quit it | 20:10 |
bioterror | and run it again | 20:10 |
bioterror | and youtube works without a problem | 20:10 |
genmail1977 | I see this solves the problem with youtube | 20:11 |
bioterror | yeah, I have to watch my pr0n from the tv, instead of website ;D | 20:11 |
genmail1977 | but still in many other sites it keeps up popping this fastidious missing plugin message | 20:11 |
genmail1977 | thanks God can have it for real at home ;) | 20:11 |
pAt_ | ping iceroot | 20:14 |
bioterror | pAt, can someone else assist you on something? | 20:22 |
bioterror | genmail1977, but after all, that flash has been quite a PITA | 20:23 |
bioterror | for the last two weeks or so | 20:23 |
pAt | yeah maybe bioterror, but Michael was involved in that issue, I am talking about this: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/lxpanel/+bug/906825 | 20:23 |

genmail1977 | bioterror, yeah, wwll...in this case maybe it's better just see what happens | 20:24 |

kanliot | or am I being phobic again | 21:12 |
bioterror | sounds like xdg-open does not read the mimetypes? | 21:14 |
kanliot | yeah | 21:14 |
kanliot | being a bash script that runs grep on the stuff, it doesn't read them | 21:15 |
kanliot | but i could be wrong (TM) | 21:15 |
bioterror | maybe I should backup my xdg-open before I start to stab it :D | 21:17 |
