| nathwill | hey all, was trying to help my neighbor install lubuntu, bug we seem to be getting caught by bug 959251 | 00:14 |
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 959251 in ubiquity (Ubuntu) "** CRITICAL **: unable to create '/root/.cache/dconf'" [Undecided,Fix released] https://launchpad.net/bugs/959251 | 00:14 |
| nathwill | do you know if this fix made it into the lubuntu release iso? | 00:15 |
| kanliot | looks like the fix made it in | 00:16 |
| kanliot | and then it broke again | 00:16 |
| kanliot | i mean you're using the release iso, right? | 00:16 |
| nathwill | kanliot, yep | 00:17 |
| kanliot | how much ram u have on the pc youre installing 2 | 00:17 |
| kanliot | ? | 00:17 |
| nathwill | or so my neighbor tells me >__< | 00:17 |
| nathwill | 512 | 00:17 |
| kanliot | hmmm | 00:17 |
| nathwill | it's an old emachines desktop | 00:17 |
| kanliot | and the livecd works otherwise? | 00:17 |
| nathwill | kanliot, yep. issue only affects ubiquity, live session works fine | 00:18 |
| kanliot | do you get the boot menu.. | 00:18 |
| kanliot | like "try lubuntu" "install lubuntu" | 00:18 |
| kanliot | ? | 00:18 |
| nathwill | kanliot, yeah, we get that. i tried both, same error | 00:19 |
| nathwill | kanliot, i was gonna try to use the debian installer (ncurses interface?), but i couldn't find it in the boot menu | 00:19 |
| kanliot | are you using a liveCD on a usb with persistence? | 00:19 |
| nathwill | kanliot, nope, burned to a cd | 00:20 |
| kanliot | yeah if you could reopen the bug | 00:20 |
| kanliot | then download the minimal installer | 00:20 |
| kanliot | i mean the alternate installer | 00:20 |
| kanliot | i get confused :( | 00:20 |
| nathwill | kanliot: :) good idea. then we can install lubuntu-desktop package, right? | 00:21 |
| kanliot | really i don't know that the alternate installer will work | 00:21 |
| kanliot | the minimal and alternate do different things | 00:21 |
| nathwill | ah | 00:21 |
| kanliot | i use the alternate myself | 00:21 |
| kanliot | it crashes less | 00:21 |
| nathwill | haha | 00:21 |
| kanliot | but i'm the only one it ever crashes on | 00:21 |
| kanliot | except for you, and this guy on the forums | 00:21 |
| nathwill | honestly, i've never had problems with my own hardware, seems to be people with older hardware who run into installer issues | 00:22 |
| kanliot | like i said | 00:22 |
| kanliot | i donno if the alternate will work | 00:22 |
| kanliot | but i would definitely try it next | 00:22 |
| nathwill | ok, good idea. thanks kanliot | 00:22 |
| khmerog | hi is it possible for me to install unity or gnome or kde plasma on lubuntu? | 00:58 |
| khmerog | im a linux noob | 00:59 |
| kanliot | yeah | 01:01 |
| kanliot | shouldn't be that hard | 01:01 |
| kanliot | but i donno how | 01:01 |
| kanliot | actually i think there's a guy writing a howto | 01:02 |
| kanliot | for installing unity on lubuntu | 01:02 |
| Unit193 | Why would you want to? What's the reasoning? | 01:02 |
| kanliot | probably just wants to try them out | 01:05 |
| khmerog | yes i just wanted to try it out..lubuntu is visually boring to me..its very windows like | 01:36 |
| khmerog | wow my blu ray player makes some dvd movies look very very good | 01:37 |
| Unit193 | !info unity | 01:50 |
| ubottu | unity (source: unity): Interface designed for efficiency of space and interaction.. In component main, is optional. Version 5.10.0-0ubuntu6 (precise), package size 1226 kB, installed size 3500 kB | 01:50 |
| Unit193 | install that. | 01:50 |
| Unit193 | gordonjcp can get you setup with unity, he's one of the oddball unity people in #lubuntu. | 01:51 |
| khmerog | u talking to me unit193? | 02:06 |
| khmerog | and is it unity 2d or 3d? | 02:07 |
| kanliot | i think it's both | 02:10 |
| Unit193 | khmerog: Yep, talking to you. | 02:15 |
| khmerog | okok i will research on this advice | 02:19 |
| khmerog | thanks | 02:19 |
| ajacom | Hi. I'm having an audio problem. Mp3's are coming great on the browser plug-in, but they sound crappy in VLC (dirty sound with noise). When I open VLC with $ vlc -A alsa , they sound fine. But they sound only sometimes (press play several times & sometimes, it works, others, silence). Any tips? | 03:01 |
| ajacom | also, i'm having a notification-daemon crash at every boot | 03:04 |

| makpet | Hi all. Does anybody know where the default wallpaper is saved in 12.04? | 08:46 |
| bioterror | yes | 08:46 |
| bioterror | just a moment | 08:46 |
| bioterror | help.ubuntu.com is slow, again | 08:47 |
| makpet | Do you know where I can download the 11.10 wallpapers? I'd also like to use the theme used in 11.10. I like it better than the lighter one used in 12.04. | 08:49 |
| bioterror | yes | 08:49 |
| bioterror | Mon10:36*<bioterror> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Lubuntu/Artwork/Incoming/Oneiric/Ozone | 08:50 |
| makpet | Thanks. That's a lot of stuff to change :( | 08:51 |
| bioterror | not that much | 08:51 |
| bioterror | panel + button and change font color | 08:51 |
| bioterror | https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Lubuntu/Documentation/FAQ/Guides | 08:52 |
| bioterror | can you go there? | 08:52 |
| bioterror | I cannot access that page | 08:52 |
| makpet | yeah I can, just a security warning in Ffox | 08:53 |
| bioterror | :D | 08:53 |
| bioterror | it's becouse of https | 08:53 |
| makpet | Alright, I'll try to revert the theme back to the 11.10 look | 08:55 |
| bioterror | I'm not going to judge you ;) | 08:55 |
| bioterror | I made the same | 08:55 |
| bioterror | ofcourse own wallpaper | 08:55 |
| bioterror | but I think you should find the path from the section where's explained how to change wallpaper for login manager | 08:56 |
| makpet | Allright, I'll check back, gotta log out/in | 08:59 |
| makpet | bioterror: what did you do to make the buttons on the right like volume, network etc more visible? | 09:01 |
| bioterror | change theme on lxappearance | 09:02 |
| bioterror | there's this | 09:02 |
| bioterror | I always forget the name | 09:02 |
| makpet | ozone 2? | 09:03 |
| bioterror | no | 09:03 |
| bioterror | there's that icons tab | 09:03 |
| bioterror | and you have to choose from there that "dark" theme | 09:03 |
| makpet | elementary or humanity? | 09:03 |
| bioterror | elementary dark | 09:04 |
| bioterror | it requires you to log out and logon back in | 09:04 |
| makpet | alright, thanks. | 09:04 |
| bioterror | and it will take affect | 09:04 |
| makpet | bioterror: Did you change anything else except button, panel and icon theme? | 09:08 |
| bioterror | I had to change font from dark to white | 09:09 |
| bioterror | on the panel | 09:09 |
| bioterror | as you can see from the clock? | 09:10 |
| makpet | How did you do that? | 09:11 |
| bioterror | right click the panel and choose settings .D | 09:11 |
| makpet | Got it, thanks. | 09:16 |
| makpet | Now I just need to find this blue 11.10 wallpaper that corresponds to the Ubuntu default wallpaper | 09:18 |
| bioterror | grab it from the artwork page, save it your ~/Pictures for example | 09:19 |
| bioterror | and change to it | 09:19 |
| bioterror | or put your own wallpaper | 09:19 |
| bioterror | :D | 09:19 |
| makpet | I don't mean the Lubuntu default one, I mean the other Lubuntu one with no text or images | 09:21 |
| makpet | It's not there | 09:21 |

| kanliot | man i forget the file | 11:30 |
| kanliot | i bet someone else here knows just wait a bit | 11:30 |
| mi3 | ok | 11:30 |
| mi3 | is it in .config/ ? that directory? | 11:30 |
| mi3 | wait, I think I got it, [experimental], I will reboot and see, ok, can I expect you to be around, kanliot ? | 11:32 |
| kanliot | yah | 11:33 |
| kanliot | logout will work too | 11:33 |
| mi3 | it will? ok | 11:33 |
| mi3 | see you in 1 min | 11:33 |
| mi3 | or less :) | 11:33 |
| mi3 | hi! | 11:35 |
| mi3 | it does not seem to work, kanliot | 11:35 |

| kanliot | ya | 11:36 |
| kanliot | sudo leafpad /etc/xdg/lxsession/Lubuntu/autostart | 11:37 |
| kanliot | hmm | 11:38 |
| kanliot | try that | 11:38 |
| kanliot | it was on the forums this week | 11:38 |
| kanliot | but really it might take me 10 minutes to find it there | 11:38 |
| kanliot | mi3 we need new people like you to work on the help.ubuntu.com website | 11:38 |
| mi3 | are you sure that sudo command might work, kanliot ? | 11:38 |
| mi3 | kanliot, sure, I can help, yayy! | 11:39 |
| kanliot | yes it will work | 11:39 |
| mi3 | ok | 11:39 |
| kanliot | hold on | 11:39 |
| kanliot | http://help.ubuntu.com/community/Lubuntu/Documentation/FAQ/Guides | 11:40 |
| kanliot | for example that page could use some work | 11:40 |
| kanliot | if you find something that isn't documented, could you add a new entry to that wiki page? | 11:41 |
| mi3 | I think, instead of populating, the wiki should be divided on topic to topic basis | 11:41 |
| mi3 | cos, I see that its quite populated | 11:42 |
| mi3 | kanliot, ?? | 11:42 |
| mi3 | brb | 11:43 |
| mi3 | kanliot, ?? | 11:44 |
| mi3 | I restarted my pc, and that file worked wonders! | 11:45 |
| kanliot | :) | 11:45 |
| mi3 | I added that conky file to it and it worked..yayy! | 11:45 |
| kanliot | we are actually doing some work on organizing the wiki day by day | 11:45 |
| mi3 | so, I was saying, the wiki is quite populated, we can unpopulate it | 11:46 |
| kanliot | if thats something you want to do, you can help the work on the mailing list | 11:46 |
| mi3 | actually, I am still a noob, I dont know quite a lot of aspects of the entire linux system, I dont know if I can be of a lot of help, kanliot | 11:46 |
| mi3 | kanliot, but I will try to give you guys some help in organizing that wiki, I surely will | 11:47 |
| kanliot | not really important, mainly it's about thinking about the wiki and helping people find info | 11:47 |
| kanliot | ok | 11:47 |
| mi3 | kanliot, what is a mailing list? in your own words... | 11:48 |
| kanliot | it's an email that everyone gets | 11:48 |
| kanliot | you reply to the email, everyone gets that reply | 11:48 |
| kanliot | so you will need a few hours every month to follow the list | 11:48 |
| mi3 | oo ok | 11:49 |
| kanliot | and also show some activity on the wiki | 11:49 |
| mi3 | ooo | 11:49 |

| a_b0y | how do i check the hard drive for bad sectors and stuff? | 12:47 |
| phillw | a_b0y: there should be an option under your System Administration to access the application (I recall it's full name, but not its menu name :) ) | 12:49 |
| a_b0y | phillw, it says the device is busy | 12:51 |
| phillw | a_b0y: if you're trying to test your current system, you will need to re-boot from LiveCD so the drive is not mounted. | 12:53 |
| a_b0y | can it check automatically during the beginning of a reboot like windows? | 12:54 |
| phillw | a_b0y: your FAST details should be available under that application, just not the ability to test. | 12:58 |
| a_b0y | i'll try to use the live cd, but sometimes the o/s won't even load from the hdd or the live cd | 13:00 |
| a_b0y | i'll restart, and if the o/s loads, i'll let you know what happen | 13:01 |
| a_b0y | btw, does ubunut use the the original javascript software or an open source version? | 13:02 |
| a_b0y | some websites will not load properly, that's why i need to install an windows o/s on this computer | 13:03 |
| a_b0y | it's an issue when sending important email and making online payments | 13:04 |
| phillw | a_b0y: the opensource is installed by default. You can switch to flash if you wish. | 13:06 |
| phillw | install the lubuntu-restricted-extras package | 13:07 |
| a_b0y | okay, here is a weird problem that someone smart may be able to answer, lubuntu won't load from hdd unless the livecd is connected to the computer, then it loads directly to the o/s on the hdd and not the livecd | 13:15 |
| a_b0y | how to make lubuntu boot directly from the o/s on the hdd without the live cd being connected? and how do i boot into the live cd when the live cd is the first boot priority? | 13:17 |
| kanliot | someone on the forum had the exact same problem | 13:20 |
| a_b0y | can you post the link please | 13:21 |
| kanliot | ok | 13:21 |
| kanliot | i don't think they fixed it | 13:21 |
| a_b0y | oh, that sucks | 13:21 |
| kanliot | you might try installing with the alternate cd | 13:22 |
| kanliot | i've been telling that to lots of people with good results | 13:23 |
| kanliot | ! | 13:23 |
| phillw | a_b0y: you need to install grub onto the hard disk. | 13:23 |
| a_b0y | what is the difference between the alternate and regular iso? | 13:24 |
| kanliot | alternate doesn't have a gui installer | 13:24 |
| kanliot | and it's a lilttle slower too | 13:25 |
| phillw | kanliot: alternate is far faster on a low RAM machine :) | 13:25 |
| kanliot | yeah i actually had someone on the forum | 13:25 |
| kanliot | try and use "try lubuntu" then install lubuntu on a 384 MB ram pc | 13:26 |
| kanliot | needless to say didn't work | 13:26 |
| a_b0y | can you please provide the torrent link to the alternative cd, i'll try it | 13:26 |
| kanliot | actually install lubuntu didn't work for him either | 13:26 |
| kanliot | it's on our wiki | 13:26 |

| phillw | a_b0y: all the various iso's are listed at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Lubuntu/GetLubuntu | 13:29 |
| a_b0y | here it is http://cdimages.ubuntu.com/lubuntu/releases/precise/release/ | 13:29 |
| phillw | a_b0y: to install grub onto your hard drive via the liveCD, look at #13 on http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1195275 | 13:32 |
| phillw | kanliot: ^^ may help your other person on the forum. | 13:32 |
| a_b0y | yeah, but i can't load into the live cd | 13:33 |
| kanliot | oh damn | 13:34 |
| a_b0y | when i plug in the live cd and but it as first boost priority it boots directly to the hdd o/s | 13:34 |
| kanliot | i didnt read your question very good | 13:34 |
| a_b0y | put* | 13:34 |
| phillw | a_b0y: 1st suggestion is to clean the cd-drive lens. If you cannot boot from the CD (and it is set up as 1st boot device in your BIOS) then either the CD is corrupt, the lens is dirty or your CD-Drive has checked in sick. | 13:34 |
| a_b0y | phillw actually the live cd is on a usb | 13:34 |
| a_b0y | and i am unable to boot to the o/s on the hdd without the livecd connected to the computer | 13:35 |
| phillw | re-make the usb. It has been the bain of many people who are using usb sticks that are just "not up to the job" of being boot USB | 13:35 |
| kanliot | yeah that sounds like the problem on the forum | 13:35 |
| kanliot | i thought that maybe the perosn on the forum installed grub to the usb instead of the hd | 13:36 |
| a_b0y | i think i'll the alternate iso and try to make a new livecd usb | 13:36 |
| kanliot | man i hate searching on the forum | 13:37 |
| kanliot | people on the forum are so nice | 13:37 |
| kanliot | they have to be | 13:37 |
| kanliot | because they can never find anything | 13:37 |
| a_b0y | the usb should be fine, but maybe i'll just buy a new usb drive and then try it again | 13:38 |
| a_b0y | okay, thanks... i'll ttyl and see if i am able to get things working | 13:40 |
