LubuntuPoweredi am having issues with Flash now. it was after i went through some updates via the update manager. it will say "missing plugin" or something similiar. i had it reinstalled already and still the same problem.02:41
herpyI have a problem with Chromium04:59
Unit193What's the problem.05:00
herpyWhen I try to load a certin youtube vid I get the aw snap message05:00
Unit193You in the html5 test? http://youtube.com/html505:01
Unit193Also, what flash version/package do you have installed?05:01
herpy1.2.202.235 flashinstaller05:03
herpyflashplugin-installer*05:03
Unit193I'd recommend you purge that, enable !partner if it isn't already, and install adobe-flashplugin (not a ton of difference, but I've noticed a few.)  Alternitivly, you can install Chrome and get pepperflash.05:04
herpyenable what?05:09
Unit193!partner05:09
ubottuCanonical's partner repositories provide packages a location for software vendors to publish applications. The repo itself can be added by running this in a !terminal: « sudo add-apt-repository "deb http://archive.canonical.com/ $(lsb_release -sc) partner" »05:09
herpy!partner? How do I do that?05:09
ubottuherpy: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :)05:09
Unit193Says right there...05:10
herpyscrew it I'll install chrome05:14

bioterrorsomething wrong with your installation08:20

FarinetHello, i succeeded in entering the lubuntu chat?08:41
bioterrorseems so08:41
FarinetOk, fine . . .08:42
FarinetNot so familiar with xchat ;)08:42
bioterrorif you're familiar with AmIRC, you're home with X-Chat :D08:43
FarinetThe last time i used to chat it was with ProTerm on an Apple IIGS :D08:44
surtLast time I was on chat, I was using TekNap on OpenNap. Memories...08:46
Farinet:)08:46
FarinetAnyway, may i ask for some problems i've with lubuntu 12.04?08:46
nothingspecialThat's the idea Farinet :)08:47
FarinetOk, here it comes08:47
Farinet1. Problems with 12.04 lubuntu ppc: Even with the update from 12.4 beta to 12.04 LTS the symlinks which point to vmlinux etc. are put on the "/" (root) directory. Moreover, the most recent linux kernel img has the wrong rights!08:49
FarinetI described that in ubuntuforums.org (thread: PPC Testers needed)08:49
FarinetIt was a problem which existed already before with *ANY* kernel update08:50
Farinet@nothingspecial May be i saw you in the forums as well . . . (?)08:51
nothingspecialyes Farinet08:51
FarinetAnother question concerns that the newest kernel is "-smp" flavour. I read that the ubuntu comunity maintaining the ppc versions decided to drop the non "-smp".08:53
Farinet2 questions in regard: Is that ubuntu specific (or does debian the same)? What means "-smp" - just out of curiousity . . . ?08:54
nothingspecialFarinet: You can read the discussion re droping smp here08:57
nothingspecialhttps://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-devel/2012-March/034927.html08:57
nothingspecialnon-smp rather08:58
Farinet@nothingspecial: If so, why the "apt-get update" & "apt-get upgrade" installed an -smp flavour. I never ever had one on my Powerbook ??09:02
nothingspecialFarinet: I'm afraid I don't know. You could ask in #ubuntu-powerpc09:06
FarinetOk. I read (ubuntu.5.n6.nabble.com) they will drop non-smp (Benjamin Herrenschmidt & cie are well know developers i think)09:12
Farinet@nothingspecial: so, it would be better to ask the ppc related questions over there, i presume?09:13
nothingspecialI would imagine so Farinet, don't know how busy it will be on a Sunday though09:13
Farinet:)09:13
FarinetOk, then the lubuntu 12.04 x86 related problem: On a Samsung Netbook (N 150P) i cannot use lightdm. If i set it (by dpkg-reconfigure lightdm) to main display manger the login hangs. With lxdm it works.09:16
FarinetBut when i try to purge lightdm all lubuntu related stuff is deleted as well, and i rest with basic lxde09:16
nothingspecialThat may be something to do with the wallpaper Farinet, do you have a custom wallpaper set?09:17
nothingspecialsilly as it sounds ....09:17
nothingspecialsee here Farinet09:21
nothingspecialhttp://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=11886394&postcount=309:21
FarinetNot in this moment; at least not in the settings for lightdm (with lxdm i use Natty_bug)09:22
nothingspecialThe post concerns Ubuntu but the bug may be similar09:22
Farinet@nothingspecial: JFYI: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PowerPCKnownIssues (> No non-smp kernel)09:22
nothingspecialI'm not suggesting installing gdm by the way09:22
FarinetNot really ;)09:23
FarinetI can live with lxdm, not that big of a problem. But i'd like to understand, where the problem is (and i'm a bit afraid for further upgrades)09:23
nothingspecialI have to go Farinet, hope you solve your issues09:27

gnufunHello, I just installed Lubuntu on an Acer Aspire One ZG5.  I kept Windows XP on the other partition when installing.  When booting, the grub menu screen does not come up.  Instead the netbook boots directly into Windows.  If I connect the usb, then the grub screen comes up and I can choose ubuntu.  It then boots from the hard drive.  I tried to sudo update-grub.  That looked like everything went according to plan (it found every23:48
pepinitoHi there. Is ther any way to get a application switcher with previews in Lubuntu?23:50
Unit193gnufun: You got cut off at "...according to plan (it found ever" However, you can hold left shift on boot, or edit /etc/default/grub and comment out hidden boot (# being comments) and run sudo update-grub23:51
pepinitoHi there. Is there any way to get a application switcher with previews in Lubuntu?23:56
Unit193There's no need to repeat your question.23:56
pepinitoi know i know, I hadn t login against NickServ, so i didn know if the first one went out.23:58
