[13:13] I like the design so far apart from the bigger arrows at drop down boxes and menu, but meh- apart from that it is sweet :) [13:13] I think it is in /usr/share/images [13:13] or /usr/share/lubuntu [13:13] search somewhere there [13:14] I don't have lubuntu running currently [13:14] oh noted that the new kernel doesnt work with older versions of ndsiwrapper btw [13:16] okay found it :) thanks [13:24] hi [17:34] just wondering how i remove the default "workgroup" directory from appearing in the network browse [17:41] just wondering how i remove the default "workgroup" directory from appearing in the network browse [17:44] lman: hey.. no need to repost [17:44] pretty sure you just right-click and say delete.. if that doesnt work, you'll just need to be patient, or try #ubuntu where maybe someone is using the same filemanger you are using :) [19:39] anyone familiar with sylpheed [19:44] !ask lman [19:45] oops [19:45] !ask [19:45] Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily).

If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) See also !patience [19:46] ;) [20:22] Hi, I'm a first time lubuntu user and somewhat new to Linux as well. I'm trying to install some VM drivers on it [20:23] and I'm almost done, but it's asking me "what is the location of the gcc program on your machine?" [20:23] and i have no idea what to put [20:23] i tried typing "which gcc" and it gives me nothing [20:23] anything i can do to resolve this? [20:24] bolosaur: whereis gcc [20:24] should be /usr/bin/gcc [20:24] it says its not a valid path to the gcc binary, evne though whereis gcc tells me so :( [20:25] I literally wrote "/usr/bin/gcc" as the path [20:25] sans quotes [20:25] try /usr/bin/ [20:25] same thing [20:25] also tried /usr/bin/gcc/ :/ [20:25] maybe just /usr/bin [20:26] what vm is this? [20:26] VMware Fusion [20:26] I've managed to install these drivers on both ubuntu and mint before [20:26] so i expected it to work on lubuntu as well [20:26] no experience [20:26] Dang. [20:26] Alright, well thanks for taking the time. [20:26] i'd use virtualbox [20:26] did you do whereis gcc? [20:26] maybe you don't have gcc installed [20:27] seems strange [20:27] Well, I'm already running VMware Fusion for several other things, so I'd like to keep my virtualization flora under one app [20:27] And yeah I did wheres gcc [20:27] and it gave me the path you told me [20:27] but perhaps its only partially installed somehow? or maybe outdated? [20:27] you could update it for sure although that seems strange [20:28] apt-get update gcc? [20:28] http://communities.vmware.com/message/1883496 [20:30] What's libglib? [20:30] Is this something I should install? [20:31] !info libglib2.0-0 [20:31] Sorry if that's a dumb question but I'm not very experienced with this. [20:31] libglib2.0-0 (source: glib2.0): GLib library of C routines. In component main, is required. Version 2.32.1-0ubuntu2 (precise), package size 1160 kB, installed size 3768 kB [20:31] should i specify the verison number? or is there a way to fetch the latest [20:31] that will fetch the latest [20:31] ok [20:32] ubuntu, mint, lubuntu all use the same package management [20:32] it says libglib2.0-0 is already the latest version [20:32] :/ [20:32] if you've done it there, it's the same as doing it here [20:32] did you update before ? [20:32] 0 to upgrade, 0 to install and 53 to skip [20:32] nope, i just installed the OS [20:32] well you wont' get the latest if you don't update :) [20:33] Well, what I mean is, I just did sudo apt-get update libglib2.0-0 [20:33] and it told me its already up to date [20:33] sudo apt-get update [20:34] first [20:34] alright [20:34] then you can do sudo apt-get install libglib2.0-0 [20:34] i'd also do the same with gcc [20:36] ok [20:36] one sec [20:38] you can see gcc-4.7 gets installed http://packages.ubuntu.com/precise/gcc [20:38] /usr/bin/gcc is a symlink to it [20:40] honestly tho i think this is a vmware problem [20:40] bbl [20:42] oh there is a #vmware channel [20:42] ok gone for real [20:47] wxl: I got all the available updates [20:47] now im trying again [20:49] damn [20:49] its still complaining about gcc, wxl :/ [20:49] but thanks for the help [20:50] Did you try #vmware? You could also try #ubuntu, though it's quite busy. (Never used vmware myself, so no good) [21:24] Alright, I managed to get it sorted with a different VM package. [21:24] Thanks for the help guys, and especially wxl. [21:25] Glad you got it then! [21:26] Indeed. Cheers! [21:41] Hello. I am having trouble getting my Flash player to work. I keep seeing "Missing Plugins" where flash content is supposed to be. I have tried purging and reinstalling lubuntu-restricted-extras, installing flash-player-nonfree. I even purged those and tried gnash, and got the same result. I then installed Firefox and used the Flash extention that is supposed to retrieve the latest version for you, all with the same result: [22:18] gnufun, u mean u tried also: sudo apt-get update [22:18] sudo apt-get clean [22:18] sudo apt-get purge flashplugin-* [22:18] sudo apt-get install flashplugin-installer [22:18] ? [22:20] gnufun: What you can try for Mozilla is to copy libflashplayer.so into ~/.mozilla/plugins [22:21] I had to this under ubuntu, when I had 10.10. [22:23] Anyway ... good luck [22:24] sry, need to sleep. To go further on, just google this libflashplayer.so, you find many hints and tricks ... [22:26] Multbrelch: Hello. Thank you for the reply. Somehow I don't have that directory. I only have firefox and extentions [22:27] If I go to about:plugins in chromium, there are three flash copies (Probably from all of the tinkering I have been doing) [22:27] whoops [22:27] hmmm [22:27] that wasn't supposed to be a face [22:28] I would de-install all flash..whatever and restart. [22:28] restart=re-install flash manually ... there are many infos in the net [22:28] keyword: libflashplayer.so [22:29] libflashplayer.so <= you get it from Adobe (I think) [22:29] how can I clean up that chromium plugins folder? I have been looking for that location so I can delete everything from it [22:30] /usr/lib/chromium-browser/plugins [22:30] When you say de install all flash, are you thinking: sudo apt-get purge lubuntu-restricted-extras flashplugin-installer [22:31] for instance ... but read before in the internet [22:31] btw: you get the file from here: http://get.adobe.com/de/flashplayer/ [22:32] Multbrelch: All of the tutorials teach you how to do this for FF. I haven't been able to locate the plugin directory for Chromium [22:32] /usr/lib/chromium-browser/plugins [22:32] that's the plugin directory for chromium [22:32] Ah, chromium ... I donno, I only know it for Mozilla [22:32] ahh thank you for that [22:32] ^^ [22:33] okay, need to go ... good luck [22:33] libflashplayer.so is listed in /usr/lib/chromium-browser/plugins [22:33] Ok, thank you [22:34] you're trying to remove flash player? [22:34] apusateri: Hello. I am trying to get it to work. I always see: "Missing Plugin" wherever flash content should be [22:35] I have purged and reinstalled lubuntu-restricted-extras and flashplugin-installer [22:36] I always recommend adobe-flashplugin as it seems to work better. [22:36] From the !partner repo that is. [22:36] that's strange - i'm running a stock install of chromium os and flash is working without issue [22:36] not chromium os, chromium browser, durr [22:37] apusateri: Yes, it is strange, because I installed it on a netbook last week and everything worked perfectly [22:37] FYI my plugins directory is empty [22:38] have you tried uninstalling/reinstalling chromium, just out of curiosity? [22:38] I have not tried that, but I did install FF, and I couldn't get Flash to work in that either [22:40] does this file exist on your system? [22:40] /usr/lib/flashplugin-installer/libflashplayer.so [22:40] Yes [22:41] hmm - that's the only libflashplayer.so file that I have on my system [22:42] can you go to chrome://plugins/ in your browser? [22:43] Yes, there are now 3 files listed under Flash [22:43] Here's the one that I have: [22:43] Flash - Version: 11.2 r202 Shockwave Flash 11.2 r202 [22:44] Shockwave Flash 11.2 r202 [22:44] all three say that? [22:44] Yes [22:44] how about a $locate libflashplayer.so [22:45] to find out where the other ones are hiding? [22:45] /usr/lib/chromium-browser/plugins/libflashplayer.so /usr/lib/firefox-addons/plugins/libflashplayer.so /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/libflashplayer.so [22:46] i thought you had one here? /usr/lib/flashplugin-installer/libflashplayer.so [22:47] steven@ach-chiro-1:/usr/lib/flashplugin-installer$ ls [22:47] install_plugin libflashplayer.so [22:47] I know we aren't supposed to do that [22:47] sorry [22:48] meh, no worries [22:48] i assume you've tried disabling the plugins on the chrome://plugins/ page? [22:48] But yes, it is strange that it is listed there, but didn't show up in the $locate commandc [22:48] yeah that's weird for sure [22:49] I could disable them. Which one should be enabled? The top one? [22:49] yeah just leave one of them enabled, shouldn't matter which [22:53] hi [22:53] i have a problem [22:53] i cant choice size of partition [22:53] https://docs.google.com/open?id=0B4elpabxpZWZUTRWei1KNEN4VW8 https://docs.google.com/open?id=0B4elpabxpZWZbWRoM1N1cjlLWkE https://docs.google.com/open?id=0B4elpabxpZWZTnY2Zjg3ZFZKZFE [22:53] I think we are getting somewhere, because now it asks me for permission to run the plugin. I clicked enable, but it doesn't play [22:54] okay now check your chrome://plugins/ again and see if there is more than one enabled? [22:55] just one is enabled. That is good. [22:56] wish i knew how to repro the problem so i could mess around with it here, lol [22:56] try enabling the second one and disabling the first, and trying flash again? just to see if one of the plugins is behaving badly? [22:59] where will i find System Icon Theme location path? I can change the icons from Applications menu fine, but I'm trying to change icon from a program- Cairo Dock and it ask me for icon path and idk [22:59] I get similar behavior. [23:00] n1ck: n1ckn4me09876543 [23:00] err [23:00] /usr/share/icons [23:00] n1ckn4me09876543: that's where the icons are [23:00] apusateri: thank you [23:01] gnufun: I'm running out of ideas... might just be easier to re-install chromium browser, see if that fixes it? [23:01] n1ckn4me09876543: no prob [23:02] apusateri: Ok, thank you for the suggestions. I will try that
