corvusHas anyone noticed a fairly significant increase in memory usage in Lubuntu 12.04 over 11.10?00:51
KM0201nope00:51
Unit193We'll find out in a couple hours.00:52
KM0201lol00:52
KM0201i'm actually trying Ubuntu00:52
corvusIn 11.10, I'd idle between 83-86. In 12.04, it runs about 98-102 or so.00:52
KM0201Unity has definitely improved (i still dont like it compared to lxde, but it's definitely gotten better)00:52
Unit193I hear Unity is much better than it was, ut that's not support. :P00:53
corvusNot that it's sluggish or anything, I'm just trying to figure out what, exactly, is causing the increase.00:54
corvusAfter a browsing session with Chromium, it tends to hold onto quite a bit of ram even after closing the browser.00:55
kanlioti was wondering how much lightdm uses00:55
aazcod19999My turtle beach p11 headset wont "connecT" to lubuntu, i need them for skype i can hear people just cant talk back to people.01:21

KM0201hmm,never has for me02:01
KM0201Unit193: u around?02:01
Unit193KM0201: Nope.02:01
KM0201was that sarcasm... or are yo ureally not available?.. lol02:01
Unit193Sarcasm, what's up, doc?02:02
KM0201question02:02
KM0201just helped a friend install lubuntu02:02
KM0201install went fine (from an alt cd)02:02
KM0201it boots, then stops on a message about broadcom wireless, and gives a link to http://wireless.kernel.org/en/users/Drivers/b43#devicefirnware02:03
KM0201which i don't understand.02:03
Unit193!b4302:03
ubottuHelp with Broadcom bcm43xx can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx02:03
KM0201Unit193: thats the thing, we're not tryng to get the wireless working02:03
KM0201it's preventing the machine from booting to a GUI02:03
KM0201i've set up b43's before.. but never had this happen02:04
KM0201its' a 431802:04
Unit193Well, more what the message says, and if you can switch to a TTY?02:05
aazcod19999how do i turn off auto scrolling/02:05
aazcod19999so everytime i hit space on xat i dont go all the way down the page typeing 5 words...02:05
KM0201he'll have to manually type it, hang on02:06
Unit193Yeah, that's alwasy fun.02:06
KM0201Unit193: i just don't understand why that would keep a machine from booting to the GUI, thats all.02:07
Unit193Well, it having to do with drivers... But if it's not on there.02:07
KM0201you woul dthink it would just boot, and the wireless not would not work02:08
KM0201is there a way we can blacklist the device, from the grub line?02:08
KM0201hmm, well apparently its freezing up, and is not allowed him to switch to a tty02:09
KM0201Unit193: any idead?... can we blacklist b43 from grub entry?02:12
Unit193https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BootOptions#Common_Kernel_Options or http://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/kernel-parameters.txt02:14
Unit193But I'll not be of much use with this.02:14
KM0201hmm02:14

AquaGirlLoveHi.03:02
AquaGirlLoveI recently upgraded from 11.10 to 12.04.03:03
AquaGirlLoveWhen I started up Lubuntu, I noticed my login screen changed.  Is there any way to get it back.  I had used to lxde-config to customize it before.03:04
KM0201hmm, i have no idea on that03:04
KM0201i like the new login screen much better03:04
AquaGirlLoveI prefer the old login screen.03:05
AquaGirlLoveI read that Ubuntu is using LightDM as the login screen for 12.04.03:06
axisysI still hear sound after plugging in the headset .. so sound is coming from two places.. what gives?03:10
axisysit is 10.1003:10
axisysin alsamixer headphone jack sense shows off.. how do I enable it?03:12
axisysi guess hit `m' enabled it.. thanks03:21

m4ter03:26
m4tits not x-session-manager03:27
AquaGirlLoveWhich one is it?03:27
m4ti cant find itim not sure03:29
AquaGirlLoveIt looks like i Have lxdm03:29
m4ttry dpkg-reconfigure lxdm03:30
AquaGirlLoveIf I viewed an earlier version of Lubuntu, where would I look?03:31
AquaGirlLoveThis computer is the only one that has been updated.03:31
AquaGirlLoveI have another on the previous version.03:32
AquaGirlLovePut it this way, 12.04 is not reading... /etc/lxdm/default.conf file.03:34
m4there03:34
m4tyou can do dpkg-reconfigure lxdm03:34
m4tor03:34
m4techo `which lxdm` > /etc/X11/default-display-manager03:34
AquaGirlLoveReading the file, it states.... /usr/sbin/lightdm03:36
m4t...03:36
AquaGirlLovedefault-display-manage.dpkg-tmp reads... /usr/sbin/lxdm03:37
Onionnionis there a way to change which directory is shown on the desktop?03:37
AquaGirlLoveHi again.04:25
KM0201o/04:25
AquaGirlLoveIs there away for me to get rid of LightDM and get back to LXDE for both login and desktop environment?04:26
KM0201i have no idea on that one04:28
KM0201i like lightdm04:28
AquaGirlLoveI really dislike having a list for available users on the login screen.04:29
Unit193You can always use slim or lxdm.04:31
AquaGirlLoveI would like to use lxdm04:31
AquaGirlLoveI have no idea how to get it to be default.04:31
Unit193AquaGirlLove: sudo dpkg-reconfigure lxdm04:33
AquaGirlLoveDid that.04:34
AquaGirlLoveAnything else?04:34
AquaGirlLoveOr do I reboot?04:35
Unit193May rather need  sudo dpkg-reconfigure lxdm -f dialog04:35
Unit193Then reboot.04:35
AquaGirlLoveWill do.  Thank you. :)04:35
pibarnashello folks.04:36
