| izzaboo | I just made a LiveUSB stick with Lubuntu 12.04 on it (with persistence). Gonna try to resurrect his old laptop. My question... | 02:50 |
| izzaboo | ...is about accessing data we might create/save in the casper-rw filesystem while USB stick is mounted but not as boot volume. | 02:51 |
| izzaboo | any good answers here or know of any on the web? | 02:51 |

| ekaj | Is there a way to change your broadcast address? | 06:24 |
| kanliot | what is a broadcast addr? | 06:48 |
| bioterror | inet 10.0.0.2 netmask 255.255.255.0 broadcast 10.0.0.255 | 07:06 |
| bioterror | it's the one that broadcasts | 07:06 |
| ekaj | can you change it? | 07:11 |
| bioterror | why? | 07:13 |
| bioterror | can you explain what you're after | 07:13 |
| ekaj | trying to get my internet to work, figured it'd be helpful for the inet and bcast addresses to be the same | 07:13 |
| bioterror | no | 07:14 |
| ekaj | I can ping websites and get their IP, but can't connect or receive and packets back | 07:14 |
| ekaj | can also ping other computers on the network and them me, but no internet | 07:14 |
| ekaj | Any ideas? | 07:14 |
| ekaj | The internet works when I don't have 'Manual' settings for the connection, but I need the IP address to stay the same. | 07:15 |
| bioterror | it has nothing to do with the broadcast | 07:15 |
| ekaj | Well, changing the address probably wouldn't hurt, but I don't know. | 07:15 |
| bioterror | ekaj, and you have dns configured properly? | 07:16 |
| ekaj | I assume so, no idea | 07:17 |
| bioterror | do you have dns server(s) configured? | 07:17 |
| ekaj | yes, 10.0.0.10 | 07:17 |
| ekaj | the XP box works fine with it | 07:17 |
| bioterror | am I understanding right that you're building a network? | 07:18 |
| ekaj | yes | 07:18 |
| bioterror | if you manually configure ip address, you probably should add nameserver to /etc/resolv.conf | 07:19 |
| bioterror | add line 'nameserver 8.8.4.4' for example | 07:20 |
| Unit193 | 12.04 does the fancy dnsmasq stuff. | 07:21 |
| Unit193 | !resolvconf | 07:21 |
| ubottu | resolvconf is a set of scripts that's used to manage /etc/resolv.conf in 12.04, for more information please see: http://www.stgraber.org/2012/02/24/dns-in-ubuntu-12-04/ | 07:21 |
| ekaj | wtf is the file manager | 07:21 |
| ekaj | never mind, "File ManageR" | 07:21 |
| ekaj | err, how do I edit it | 07:24 |
| ekaj | I'll work on it tomorrow. | 07:29 |

| morri | hi guys, still having problems with the display in lubuntu 12.04- only that it doesnt seem to be able to access the display- it shows the splash screen alright and in the right resolution but I can only access a session with a working screen over openbox, but not over a lubuntu session. the screen goes blank and switches off if I do so | 08:54 |
| mi3 | hi kanliot ! | 09:30 |
| mi3 | welcome back, sir ! | 09:30 |
| kanliot | sup man | 09:39 |
| kanliot | sup mi3 | 09:40 |
| morri | guys, still having problems with the display in lubuntu 12.04- only that it doesnt seem to be able to access the display- it shows the splash screen alright and in the right resolution but I can only access a session with a working screen over openbox, but not over a lubuntu session. the screen goes blank and switches off if I do so | 09:40 |
| mi3 | hey kanliot ! | 09:40 |
| kanliot | mi3 are you in offtopic? | 09:41 |
| mi3 | kanliot, I will meet you there. | 09:41 |
| kanliot | did you use arandr to change your resolution? | 09:42 |
| kanliot | or something like that? | 09:42 |
| kanliot | morri | 09:42 |
| kanliot | it sounds like you need to change back to a low-resolution that your monitor can display | 09:42 |
| morri | i never changed it in the first place | 09:43 |
| kanliot | was it working before? | 09:43 |
| morri | just a couple of days ago the monitor switched to an atrocious 1024+768 and 60 hz refreshing rate | 09:43 |
| morri | which was making me sick looking at it literally | 09:43 |
| morri | yeah was working fine for a year | 09:43 |
| morri | in openbox and in the splash screen it shows the default resolution(1152 *8xx | 09:44 |
| morri | Ni idea what the difference is really in the past days | 09:45 |
| morri | I can give you the dmesg if it helps you | 09:45 |
| kanliot | can you get to console with control+alt+f1 | 09:45 |
| kanliot | ? | 09:45 |
| morri | yea I get into the console- thats how i reboot my pc | 09:48 |
| kanliot | do you log-in automatically? | 09:49 |
| kanliot | and does it mess up at the login screen | 09:49 |
| kanliot | btw i donno what i'm doing i'm just guessing | 09:49 |
| kanliot | but i'm thinking you can set resolution in the console, i'm not sure | 09:50 |
| morri | no i don't login automatically | 09:51 |
| morri | i tried setting it via console but it said it can't access display | 09:51 |
| morri | and the spalsh and login are absolutely fine | 09:52 |
| kanliot | theres a bash command to fix that | 09:52 |
| kanliot | DISPLAY=0:0 or something like that | 09:52 |
| morri | http://pastebin.com/NKbCzMxu | 09:52 |
| morri | this is the dmesg for the graphics driver | 09:53 |
| kanliot | doesn't help | 09:53 |
| morri | ok | 09:53 |
| kanliot | i suppose you could find out why lubuntu is changing the screen when you log in | 09:54 |
| kanliot | but i don't know | 09:54 |
| kanliot | try that display thing | 09:54 |
| kanliot | otherwise i donno | 09:54 |
| morri | as said it used to work fine and all of a sardine it started first going into the wrong resolution and atrocious refresh rate and after than none at all | 09:54 |
| morri | ok no probs | 09:54 |
| OptikKore | having a problem installing lubuntu on my aspire one netbook | 10:06 |
| OptikKore | it just freezes during the boot process every time, even if i do nomodeset | 10:07 |
| kanliot | whats the prob | 10:07 |
| OptikKore | and i mean the boot process of the setup | 10:07 |
| kanliot | please explain | 10:08 |
| OptikKore | i cant explain because you see lubuntu on the screen and then in cycles through the dots and then eventually freezes | 10:10 |
| kanliot | did you check the disk? | 10:10 |
| OptikKore | yup, everything was fine | 10:10 |
| kanliot | i'm not sure but if you get dots, you don't need nomodeset right? | 10:11 |
| kanliot | anyhow i'm no help | 10:11 |
| kanliot | you could try the #ubuntu channel | 10:11 |
| kanliot | or wait here for someone else | 10:11 |
| kanliot | or the beginners section of ubuntuforums.com | 10:11 |
| kanliot | up 2 u | 10:12 |
| OptikKore | alright, thank you for ur time | 10:12 |
| kanliot | you're welcome | 10:12 |
