wormmd | Anyone have a reliable method to access a Lubuntu box remotely via Windows RDC? | 02:09 |
---|---|---|
wormmd | Or any way, really. | 02:10 |
Unit193 | Do you need GUi? | 02:10 |
wormmd | Unit193: yes. | 02:10 |
Unit193 | !vnc | 02:10 |
ubottu | VNC is a protocol for remote desktop. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VNCOverSSH describes how to use it securely. It works best over fast connections, otherwise look at !FreeNX | 02:10 |
wormmd | Tried xrdp and NX, both with issues. | 02:10 |
wormmd | VNC brings its own issues: I usually access my box from a machine with a lower native resolution, making navigating even the screen difficult. | 02:11 |
Unit193 | Scale the image, and those are going to be your best options really. | 02:12 |
Unit193 | VNC works quite well too. | 02:12 |
wormmd | brb, changing a diaper :) | 02:12 |
wormmd | If I scale I lose some screen real estate locally because the resolution ratios are different, but that may be something I have to deal with. | 02:16 |
wormmd | I got an error with NX before: Xsession: unable to launch "gnome-session" X session === "gnome-session not found; falling back to default session. | 02:16 |
wormmd | After which the NX client quit. | 02:17 |
wormmd | Thoughts? | 02:17 |
Unit193 | I normally just use SSH, but if it's a single window you need, you can use ssh with X forwarding. | 02:17 |
wormmd | I could deal with a single window. | 02:17 |
wormmd | Both would be nice, but single would be fine. | 02:17 |
Unit193 | And it's been a while since I last poked at NX, but it should have session selection. | 02:17 |
Unit193 | Lookup Xming | 02:17 |
Unit193 | And now I'll be afk a bit. | 02:18 |
wormmd | Thanks for the help :) | 02:18 |
wormmd | Now that you mention it, I did just use an NX shortcut on the local machine that was probably for an old configuration on the remote machine, I'll have to check that tommorow. | 02:19 |

windbuntu | hmm it seems like this would be better than buying a chroembook | 07:28 |
windbuntu | chromebook | 07:28 |
windbuntu | they want 400-500 for a chromebook and i can take an old laptop and put lubuntu on it and essentially have the same thing...right? | 07:28 |
pungi-man | windbuntu, chromebook just has internet facility and u will not be able to use most of ur applications except from the chrome store! | 07:39 |
windbuntu | correct | 07:39 |
pungi-man | what is its cost windbuntu ?? | 07:40 |
windbuntu | excellent observation pungi-man | 07:40 |
windbuntu | i would like to create the equivalent...buy pay nothing | 07:44 |

MrChrisDruif | dove_g; for me on gnome-shell it does | 10:14 |
drlaban | dove_g: Not for me. It actually screws Chromium up pretty bad on my netbook. | 10:14 |
dove_g | yes, it works on gnome, not on LXDE | 10:15 |
jakob_l | works for me | 10:15 |

MrChrisDruif | Did you try turning on html5 on youtube? | 10:17 |
dove_g | nope | 10:18 |
drlaban | Same horrible experience on my regular desktop, same Lubuntu-setup apart from hardware. The page becomes unresponsive and wants to crash | 10:18 |
dove_g | ok tnx drlaban | 10:19 |
drlaban | I had, however, not enabled html5. Dunno if it'll make a difference. | 10:19 |

Guest2520 | all of it, the title, the menu options, even my firefox plugins, | 10:38 |
Guest2520 | even my taskbar is tiny | 10:38 |
Guest2520 | but the resolution is set right in xserver | 10:39 |
Guest2520 | any any webpage inside firefox is rendered fine | 10:39 |
Guest2520 | but anything else, i have to be an inch away form the tv too see it | 10:39 |

Len2805 | hi again | 11:01 |
Len2805 | it didnt work | 11:01 |
bioterror | tweaking the nvidia settings? | 11:02 |
Len2805 | yeah, didnt change anything | 11:02 |
Len2805 | ive been on google all morning looking at this, i think it may have something to do with the dpi settings | 11:03 |
Len2805 | its just strange how it is only in lubuntu | 11:03 |
Len2805 | where is the best place to dump a screenshot for you | 11:03 |
bioterror | !paste | 11:04 |

bioterror | small that is :D | 11:05 |
bioterror | is text on the menu too small? | 11:06 |
Len2805 | yes | 11:06 |
Len2805 | ill add another with a few other apps open | 11:07 |
Len2805 | http://imagebin.org/211641 | 11:09 |
Len2805 | the menu failed to stay open while i took a screenshot | 11:09 |
bioterror | you can use "scrot -d 5 shot.png" | 11:10 |
bioterror | command | 11:10 |
bioterror | where -d 5 is "delay 5 seconds" | 11:10 |
bioterror | ;) | 11:10 |
Len2805 | you can see there how working in the terminal can be hgard | 11:10 |
bioterror | you have enough time to open menu or do what every you want and it will then snap the shot | 11:10 |
Len2805 | or even typing | 11:10 |
bioterror | Len2805, https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Xorg#Display_Size_and_DPI | 11:12 |
Len2805 | thank you will look at that now | 11:12 |
bioterror | so you have to change DPI to 96x96 or something like that | 11:14 |

windbuntu | how long does it take to boot lubuntu? | 21:23 |
windbuntu | from a turned off computer? | 21:23 |
holstein | windbuntu: depends | 21:25 |
holstein | windbuntu: i would choose lubuntu for LXDE.. for something light, but not too light if you know what i mean | 21:25 |
AngelForget | I trying to fully quantal Quetzal Ubuntu 12.10 and gives me a good impression even if else is still much work | 21:26 |
holstein | windbuntu: for fast boot, i would just not reboot.. | 21:26 |
holstein | just suspend or leave it running | 21:26 |
dove_g | windbuntu: about 20-30 sek | 21:27 |
dove_g | for ubuntu: 30-40 sek | 21:27 |
windbuntu | i may attempt to create a machine that has similar charicteristics to a chromebook...but use lubuntu instead. | 21:27 |
dove_g | if you have SSD then you get for sure cca 10sec | 21:27 |
dove_g | just buy SSD | 21:27 |
windbuntu | what about lubuntu on a flash drive | 21:27 |
AngelForget | ssd is more fast | 21:28 |
dove_g | buy SSD | 21:28 |
MrChrisDruif | AngelForget; 12.10 will practically only be updated kernel and updated core packages from 12.04 | 21:28 |
dove_g | about 100$ | 21:28 |
AngelForget | yes MrChrisDruif | 21:28 |
windbuntu | a hundred bucks is a lotta dough | 21:28 |
MrChrisDruif | Hmm, dough ^_^ | 21:28 |
windbuntu | i have an empty 8 gig flash drive | 21:29 |
windbuntu | that is staring at me | 21:29 |
AngelForget | MrChrisDruif, but still is not very stable as Lubuntu 12:04 | 21:29 |
MrChrisDruif | AngelForget; that's to be expected from a pre-alpha release | 21:30 |
windbuntu | are you saying 12.10 is out already? | 21:31 |
MrChrisDruif | windbuntu; PRE-ALPHA!! | 21:32 |
windbuntu | omg 12.04 is just out | 21:32 |
MrChrisDruif | windbuntu; we start working on the next release right after the previous...we've only got about 5 months | 21:33 |
AngelForget | MrChrisDruif, this is the fact I'm testing, but some packages are completely new | 21:33 |
gordonjcp | 12.10 is "out" but it's still basically on fire | 21:33 |
gordonjcp | aw man, spamassassin, why are you not learning from this spam corpus? | 21:34 |
AngelForget | gordonjcp, is true | 21:35 |
gordonjcp | I'm awfully tempted just to write some naive pattern matching | 21:35 |
gordonjcp | anything that mentions "prescriptions" and has a dollar sign in it, 100% spam | 21:35 |
MrChrisDruif | But to conclude, 12.04 is the current release for 6 more month, after that (20)12.10(October) will be the new release | 21:36 |
gordonjcp | the spammers are going apeshit at the moment with "FLOWERS FOR MOM! BUY NOW FOR MOTHERS DAY" | 21:36 |
gordonjcp | wtf, mother's day was months ago | 21:36 |
holstein | the 13th | 21:36 |
holstein | it was 11 months ago ;) | 21:36 |
gordonjcp | if I buy them now they'll be all wilted by the time it rolls around again | 21:36 |
gordonjcp | that's a stupid idea | 21:36 |
windbuntu | i do not see all this mothers day stuff? where is it? | 21:37 |
holstein | regardless... dont forget mom... 4 more days! | 21:39 |
AngelForget | lol | 21:40 |
gordonjcp | holstein: four more days until...? | 21:50 |
holstein | gordonjcp: mothers day | 21:50 |
gordonjcp | windbuntu: I'm getting insane amounts of spam at the moment, spamassassin *is* looking at it but not classifying it | 21:50 |
gordonjcp | holstein: that was two months ago | 21:50 |
holstein | gordonjcp: i dont think so | 21:51 |
holstein | gordonjcp: may 13th | 21:51 |
gordonjcp | nope, it was in march | 21:51 |
gordonjcp | I even took a long weekend so I could travel up to visit my mum | 21:51 |
gordonjcp | and not have to rush off at sunday teatime | 21:51 |
holstein | gordonjcp: cool.. in the US, its may 13th | 21:52 |
holstein | gordonjcp: thats why im saying its coming up, and explains the spam | 21:52 |
Unit193 | May want #ubuntu-offtopic. | 21:52 |
holstein | i thought this was it since i say the cursing | 21:53 |
gordonjcp | holstein: aha, maybe it's a US thing then | 21:53 |
HoNgOuRu | how do I remove all different sound systems and their configuration files? | 22:42 |
holstein | HoNgOuRu: what systems? JACK? pulse? | 22:44 |
HoNgOuRu | I removed alsa-common alsa pulse esound etc... | 22:45 |
HoNgOuRu | just wanna get rid of everything to install only pulse or whatever that handles right the 5.1 | 22:45 |
holstein | HoNgOuRu: pulse uses alsa AFAIK | 22:45 |
holstein | HoNgOuRu: how about this.. what are you trying to do? | 22:46 |
HoNgOuRu | just play the 5.1 right. | 22:46 |
HoNgOuRu | I config something last time that enabled me the 5.1 but just for the first song after starting the service | 22:47 |
holstein | HoNgOuRu: sometimes that just cant happen... you can try newer alsa revs, or different kernels.. i usually try that with live CD's | 22:47 |
HoNgOuRu | the second one only played in the front spks | 22:47 |
HoNgOuRu | ... I have 2 soundcards | 22:47 |
HoNgOuRu | one onboard, and the other one is a audigy sound blaster | 22:48 |
HoNgOuRu | Im really pissed off on how it is so hard to get a stable configuration | 22:48 |
HoNgOuRu | from ubuntu 7.04 to now | 22:48 |
HoNgOuRu | 12.04 | 22:48 |
holstein | HoNgOuRu: yeah. i sucks.. you should be sure to complain to the hardware vendor | 22:49 |
holstein | HoNgOuRu: i usually try live CD"s.. i would also look at pulse with pavucontrol.. and consider going down to only one card | 22:49 |
HoNgOuRu | I have headphones attached to the front panel of my box, that's the onboard one. but 5.1 plugged to the second soundcard | 22:50 |
HoNgOuRu | Im following a guide over here, I'll tell you after robooting | 22:54 |
HoNgOuRu | rebooted | 22:57 |
