| wormmd | Is there a program to manage desktop backgrounds in Lubuntu 12.04? I'm running the awesome window manager and am having trouble changing mine. | 02:34 |

| silverarrow | hi | 16:34 |
| silverarrow | I have an old mac, a white ibook. do you think lubuntu would install painlessly? | 16:35 |
| silverarrow | so noone really knows? | 16:36 |
| silverarrow | I don't know the specs of the cpu, but RAM is 512MB | 16:36 |
| silverarrow | anyone on at all? | 16:36 |
| silverarrow | I need a linux laptop | 16:36 |
| silverarrow | it runs fine with most stuff with a bit of effort | 16:37 |
| silverarrow | so, lubuntu isn't that popular anymore | 16:37 |
| silverarrow | I hope it is, it's still my favorite | 16:37 |
| silverarrow | the other buntus are for new computers only | 16:38 |
| silverarrow | almost at least | 16:38 |
| silverarrow | I really like the macbook air | 16:39 |
| silverarrow | or pro is not far from these days , very slim | 16:39 |
| silverarrow | hei | 16:44 |
| silverarrow | which time of day is most active? | 16:44 |
| zleap | hi | 16:44 |
| zleap | not sure i am usually on #ubuntu-uk | 16:45 |
| zleap | can you find out the spec of the ibook | 16:45 |
| zleap | http://www.everymac.com/systems/apple/ibook/index-ibook.html see if it is listed here | 16:46 |
| silverarrow | hi | 16:47 |
| zleap | i would guess 512mb would be enough for lubuntu yes | 16:48 |
| silverarrow | I see, I must do some investigation | 16:48 |
| silverarrow | I've been given this old ibook, it works fine, all I need is a new power supply | 16:49 |
| silverarrow | I was hoping so, at least, 512 used to be fairly good, but years a go no | 16:49 |
| zleap | check the link i posted see if your model is listed | 16:50 |
| silverarrow | right now I have vista, and annying stuff with firefox | 16:50 |
| zleap | ok | 16:50 |
| zleap | on an ibook | 16:50 |
| silverarrow | thanks, not sure, it's either 2004 or 2005 | 16:51 |
| silverarrow | I think 2005 | 16:51 |
| silverarrow | http://www.everymac.com/systems/apple/ibook/specs/ibook_g4_1.33_12.html | 16:53 |
| silverarrow | it's old, but it runs quiet and smooth with os x | 16:54 |
| silverarrow | I might reinstall os x, if possible, and if lubuntu doesn't work | 16:55 |
| silverarrow | I rather have the new lubuntu though, if it runs well | 16:55 |
| silverarrow | the old os x is all right, but a bit old now | 16:55 |
| silverarrow | see you later after some research and install attempts | 16:56 |
| silverarrow | a live boot up can never be a bad thing at least | 16:57 |
| silverarrow | ;- ) | 16:57 |
| zleap | ok | 16:58 |
| jeward | So... if I want a wee CPU meter down by the battery and sound widgets, what do I specifically look for? | 17:22 |
| jeward | I'm unsure of the openbox terminology. | 17:23 |
| jeward | That's not called a dock at the bottom of the screen? | 17:23 |
| pcroque | jeward: I think you're talking about the panel. In lubuntu it's LxPanel. Right click on a blank part of the panel to configure it. | 17:33 |
| jeward | Okay, I think I am looking for a load monitor panel applet. | 17:35 |
| pcroque | In 11.10 the applet is call CPU Usage Monitor. | 17:36 |
| jeward | I'm on 12.04. | 17:36 |
| jeward | Is it something I can agp-get install? | 17:36 |
| pcroque | I think it should already be there. Click Add/Remove Panel Items --> Panel Applets. Click the Add button and look for it there. | 17:38 |
| jeward | Sadly, no. | 17:38 |
| pcroque | Hmmm...sorry...can't help then. I don't run 12.04. | 17:39 |
| jeward | So, it may come along later I guess. | 17:39 |
| jeward | apt-cache search pxpanel didn't turn up much. | 17:40 |
| pcroque | I just looked on a laptop I have running 12.04. CPU Usage Monitor is there as an option. | 17:41 |
| jeward | Huh! | 17:42 |
| jeward | I wonder why I don't have it? | 17:42 |
| jeward | You're running lubuntu 12.04? | 17:42 |
| pcroque | You have to click the Add button to the right of the list. It has a big green plus sign on it. | 17:42 |
| jeward | Aha! | 17:42 |
| jeward | :-) | 17:42 |
| jeward | Perfect, thanks! | 17:43 |
| pcroque | np | 17:43 |
| smile-busy | bye! :) | 18:32 |
