mystdarrenstevedtrrrrm: I'd just backup your current setup and install lubuntu fresh06:13
windbuntucan lubuntu properly use a dual core computer?06:56
Unit193Don't see why not.06:58
bioterrorhttp://www.ibm.com/developerworks/library/l-linux-smp/06:59
bioterroryou tell us after reading that for example06:59
bioterroras I dont know what's your properly06:59
bioterrorbut yes, we use same kernel as ubuntu and it comes with SMP07:00
Yoscan I switch from Ubuntu 12.04 to lubuntu without having to make a fresh install ?08:51
gordonjcpYos: yes09:11
gordonjcpYos: install lubuntu-desktop09:11
Yosthank you gordonjcp09:11
gordonjcpYos: bear in mind that much of the stuff that Unity requires running in the background will still be started09:11
gordonjcpso there's going to be a certain amount of cleaning up to do09:12
Yosyou have some time to help me with this 'clean up' ?09:12
YosI don't like unity at all09:13
gordonjcpnot really, I'm at work09:13
Yosah, ok09:13
gordonjcptbh just installing lxde will probably be enough09:13
gordonjcpI quite like Unity09:13
gordonjcpit takes a bit of getting used to though09:13
MrChrisDruifYos; you're running ubuntu with openbox already?09:13
bioterrorgordonjcp, not that much, !purelxde ;)09:14
Yosyes MrChrisDruif09:14
gordonjcpI'm currently running xubuntu but for some reason all the fonts are tiny09:14
gordonjcpif I could get xubuntu with straight ubuntu's font settings I'd be happy enough with that09:14
YosMrChrisDruif, I have been using openbox like 3 days and have enjoyed it but it does lack from what a full DE has to offer09:16
MrChrisDruifBut sudo apt-get install lubuntu-desktop should give you that full DE09:16
Yosjust finished, I'm gonna reboot into it, brb09:17

mi3#linuxmint-debian09:18
MrChrisDruifNot only is that completely out of context mi3, but you'll be frown upon by the op's (don't just spam a channel with a different distro)09:20
gordonjcpman I wonder if I can get Unity running on FreeBSD09:20
mi3err sorry, I typed that in the wrong channel, sorry for that09:21
MrChrisDruifmi3; it can happen09:21
gordonjcpnever ascribe to malice what can be ascribed to incompetence ;-)09:21
mi3lol09:21
Yoslooks good :)09:24
YosMrChrisDruif, what do I have to do to get rid of Unity all togather ?09:27
MrChrisDruifYos; You don't have unity installed right now, right?09:28
YosI am on Ubuntu 12.04 so Unity is installed09:28
bioterror!purelxde | yos09:29
ubottuyos: If you want to remove all !KDE, !GNOME and !XFCE packages and have a default !Lubuntu system follow the instructions here « http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/purelxde »09:29
gordonjcpbioterror: I know that works, but it still scares me a bit09:31
gordonjcpand really, how long does it take to do a clean install?09:31
gordonjcp(yes, I know that's not the whole story and you've then got to reinstall locally-installed apps)09:31
MrChrisDruifgordonjcp; why does it scare you?09:31
Timo_Hi, yesterday  I've upgraded to 12.04 (fromout 11.10), I've used it, and also booted on it a few times already. But now I am now unable to boot. I could see the boot logo, but now it's stuck at "Stopping System V runlevel compatibility. Starting CUPS printing spooler/server" and then nothing happens :(09:31
gordonjcpMrChrisDruif: well, in my experience deleting "unnecessary" packages either leaves a lot of cruft around, or ganks out something essential09:32
bioterrorgordonjcp, apt-get purge ;)09:33
MrChrisDruifgordonjcp; if you purge instead of remove, you also remove the setting files, but if you look at the end of the command, you'll see it'll install lubuntu-desktop09:33
MrChrisDruifOr so it *used* to mention it09:35
MrChrisDruifAnyhow, if you append "; sudo apt-get install lubuntu-desktop -f" it should check if lubuntu-desktop is intact09:36
Yoswow, this removes a lot09:37
Yosvlc, gufw, virtualbox, lol09:37
Yosso I'll basically end up with a fresh install after this ?09:38
Yoshope it doesn't remove Tor09:38
MrChrisDruifYos; you'll see a complete list it attempts to remove before remove which is alphabetised, just check if tor is among that list09:44
MrChrisDruifOr is Tor an plugin for firefox/chromium?09:45
bioterrorTimo_, if you press ctrl+alt+f7, you dont end up to graphical?09:46
Timo_no09:47
Timo_it shows me the latest boot info09:47
Timo_like the 'Starting CUPS printing spooler/server [OK]"09:47
bioterrorwhat if you press ctrl+alt+f1?09:47
bioterrordo you get tty?09:47
Timo_im there now09:47
Timo_:P09:47
bioterrorcan you run command: startlubuntu09:48
Timo_"(lxsession:2295) Gtk-WARNING **: cannot open display:09:48
Yoswell, at least Tor remained lol09:48
Yosand my system didn't break yet09:49
Timo_Yos: nice one :D09:49
bioterrorTimo_, can you stop lightdm service?09:49
Timo_bioterror: it's not running, I think09:51
bioterrorTimo_, sudo service lightdm stop09:52
bioterrorwhat does it say?09:52
Timo_unkown instance09:52
bioterroryour system was 12.04?09:52
Yosand my anonet hub is still here :)09:53
Timo_and when I do 'sudo lightdm', it goes to tty7, and it flickers, and goes back to the log message. Yes I'm at 12.0409:53
Timo_as far as I know :P09:53
bioterrorhmmmm09:53
bioterroryou should have that kind of instance09:53
Timo_I think that's what the problem is. the graphical enviroment fails, and that's why lightdm fails as well09:55
Timo_or something09:55
bioterroryou still have LXDM?09:55
Timo_but, I was on Lubutnu 12.04 with everything working yesterday, how can it be borked now :p09:57
Timo_hey, lxdm is working :D09:57
bioterrorokay09:57
bioterrorsounds like a conflict09:57
Timo_im logged on now! :D09:57
MrChrisDruifbioterror; it's "sudo stop <service>"09:58
bioterrorit is not!09:58
MrChrisDruifor restart etc...09:58
MrChrisDruifWhy does my network-manager restart with "sudo restart network-manager" then?09:58
Timo_bioterror: would it be possible to set LXDM as default instead of LightDM10:00
MrChrisDruifTimo_; dpkg-reconfigure lxdm10:00
MrChrisDruifOw, append sudo in front of that of course10:01
Timo_okay, thanks a lot people! I'm quickly going back to learning my exam10:02
bioterrorI would try to solve LightDM problem10:02
bioterroras that's the default DM from 12.04 on10:02
Timo_ye but I really don't have the time right now :P10:02
Timo_again, thanks, I appreciate your work! :)10:03
Yoswhat is the default firewall for lubuntu? ufw ?11:33
Yosiptables ?11:33

gordonjcplubuntu is borked since I last updated15:27
wormmdI can't get Sylpheed to retrieve mail from an account that Thunderbid will, and I've set everything up as similar as possible. It looks like Sylpheed has far fewer options to set than Thunderbird. Has anyone had any problems with Sylpheed?15:27
* gordonjcp has had many problems with sylpheed15:27
gordonjcpto the extent that I'm seriously considering forking it, patching the hell out of it, and submitting the patches15:28
gordonjcpanyone else getting lubuntu getting stuck unable to start X?15:28
wormmdgordonjcp: I suppose I'll stick with Thunderbird for now, thanks :)15:31

gordonjcpright, time to unbork lubuntu on my laptop18:10
gordonjcphas anyone else had problems with X not starting, since some recent update?18:10
zleapi only installed the other day so no issues so far18:11
gordonjcpodd18:13
gordonjcpthink I'll just back it up and nuke it18:13
gordonjcpI'm finding lubuntu a bit slow and crashy, tbh18:13
zleaphmm18:14
gordonjcplxpanel goes insane when firefox finishes downloading something18:14
zleaphmm, but firefox is bigger,  what does chrome do ?18:14
gordonjcpstarts consuming all memory, and brings the machine to its knees18:14
gordonjcpdon't know18:14
gordonjcpI junked chromium straight away, it's unusable18:15
wxlthat's strange18:15
wxlas a die-hard firefox user i just switched to chromium18:15
zleapi find ubuntu makes the screen fade out,  when doing tasks,  thankfully crtl-alt-f1 works so i can login and reboot18:15
gordonjcpthere's no way to turn off the annoying "this file may harm your computer" message when you go to download a PDF18:15
wxlso much faster for me18:15
wxlin chromium18:16
wxl?18:16
gordonjcpyeah18:16
gordonjcpand it's several mouse clicks to get rid of it18:16
gordonjcpand actually get the damn pdf18:16
gordonjcpmultiplied by reading dozens and dozens of PDFs a day, it starts to get a bit bloody obnoxious18:16
wxloptions > under the hood > downloads > ask where to save each file18:17
gordonjcpright, but that doesn't disable it whining about how the file might damage my computer18:17
gordonjcpquite how it would, I don't know18:17
wxlit should18:18
wxldoes over here18:18
gordonjcphang on, let me install it on this machine18:19
wxlbtw might i recommend the vrome extension (if you're a vim lover)18:22
wxlso much better than vimperator for ff18:22
gordonjcphaha18:23
gordonjcp"under the hood"?18:23
wxlyeah yeah18:23
gordonjcpin en-GB it's i18nised as "Under the Bonnet"18:23
gordonjcplove it18:23
wxlHAHAHAHAHAH18:23
wxlwtf18:23
wxltoo bad it 'twasn't under the petticoats18:24
gordonjcpright, "ask where to save each file" gets rid of that, but asks where I want to save the file18:26
gordonjcpI don't want it to save it, I want it to spark up evince, without bothering me with stupid questions18:26
wxlthat's just the way it is18:26
wxlnothing lubuntu can help you out with18:27
gordonjcphence my use of firefox18:27
gordonjcpsince the chromium irc channel was about as much use as a chocolate fireguard18:28
gordonjcp"ZOMG YOU CAN'T TURN THAT OFF BECAUSE PDFS ARE A SECURITY RISK!!11!!!!1!!!!"18:28
wxlhis is also a chrome problem18:28
wxl^t18:28
wxlso you could go complain at google18:28
wxlgood luck on that one18:28
wxlmeanwhile i'd move on ;)18:28
gordonjcp"ZOMG PDFS CAN HACK YOUR SYSTEM AND YOU GET A VIRUSES"18:28
gordonjcpmongtards, the lot of them18:29
zleapwhat about word files or libre office scripts18:29
gordonjcpI don't use word files18:29
gordonjcpI never use office apps18:29
zleapbut they can have scripts18:29
gordonjcpdon't give a toss, I never use the things18:29
zleapi am talking generally if pdfs are a security risk,18:29
zleapyeah but if you block 1 sort of file when there are lots out there that also pose a risk,18:30
smilebye :)18:32
gordonjcpzleap: oh totally18:33
zleapi have never had anything block pdfs though18:33
zleapwhy is the cd image reported as 688 mb but also shows upas 721mb19:09

osmodivsHello. I just upgraded to Lubuntu 12.04, Before I ipgraded, in the login screen, the system would let me choose the languaje, now, it wont, it is a completly new different manager. I remember the system asking me for a display manager, it was light something and lxdm, How can I go back to the old manager?22:46
osmodivsLogin manager, I do not know the exact term22:47
Unit193First, can you click at the top right corner? That should have the option.22:47
osmodivsUnit193, No, no such option there, it only has an option for High contrast theme22:49
* Unit193 thought there was...22:49
Unit193Alright, sudo dpkg-reconfigure lxdm22:49
stevmmmtrying to installlubuntu on a virtual box22:50

stevmmmon an old laptop with winxp22:50
osmodivsUnit193, Yes, it worked, that command let me choose another manager, I choose LXDM and that one lets me choose the language, so i guess LIGHTD is garbage because it does not let me choose the languageM22:58
osmodivsThank you Unit19322:58
Unit193LightDM, and it should, let me look at a wiki.23:00
Unit193Yeah, I have the option here.23:03
