| Galeade | hi | 13:23 |
| Galeade | i have a prob with flash, i have a message missing plugin in any browser that i use to visit a website made with flash | 13:27 |
| Galeade | i've tried ecerything i found on the internet | 13:28 |
| Galeade | everything* | 13:29 |
| Galeade | i've tried 3 graphic cards | 13:30 |
| Galeade | i've tried flash aid and gnash + lightspark | 13:31 |
| Galeade | i made tests with firefox, seamonkey, iceweasel and chromium-browser | 13:31 |
| Galeade | and i still cannot find an issue | 13:32 |
| Galeade | (i use 11.10) | 13:35 |
| smile | Galeade: well have you checked if flash is installed? :) | 13:48 |
| Galeade | smile: :) | 13:49 |
| Galeade | i wouldn't lie | 13:49 |
| Galeade | gnashworks but not for the websites i use to visit | 13:49 |
| smile | Galeade: start firefox and type in: about:addons | 13:50 |
| smile | :) | 13:50 |
| smile | And tell me what's installed @ plugins | 13:51 |
| smile | (not add-ons, plugins) | 13:51 |
| Galeade | i do not have firefox anymore | 13:51 |
| Galeade | i've re-installed | 13:51 |
| smile | and now it works? | 13:51 |
| Galeade | but it apperas int the list in about:plugins of chromium | 13:51 |
| Galeade | nope | 13:51 |
| smile | can you copy the exact entry in chrome? :) | 13:52 |
| Galeade | i've done lots of new installs to do proper tests | 13:52 |
| Galeade | yes i can | 13:52 |
| smile | That would be helpful. | 13:53 |
| Galeade | do you want a screen ? | 13:53 |
| Galeade | with details | 13:53 |
| smile | Galeade: okay, that's fine :) don't forget to expand the entry :) | 13:53 |
| smile | Galeade: are you busy? | 13:57 |
| Galeade | yep i'm installing | 14:00 |
| Galeade | cause the system is just installed | 14:00 |
| Galeade | i needmy tool :p | 14:00 |
| smile | ok. :p | 14:01 |
| Galeade | http://maman.admin.free.fr/plugins.png | 14:02 |
| smile | it's downloading, just a moment | 14:05 |
| Galeade | it's newly installed but updated | 14:05 |
| smile | what does checking the checkbox allow do? :) | 14:06 |
| Galeade | the checkbox ? | 14:06 |
| Galeade | sorry i'm french | 14:06 |
| Galeade | my system is in english but i don't understand what you're talking about | 14:07 |
| Galeade | oh i see | 14:07 |
| smile | well. If you enable allow. :) | 14:07 |
| smile | what happens then? :) | 14:07 |
| Galeade | nothing | 14:07 |
| smile | I'm also a non-native speaker, Galeade | 14:07 |
| smile | Galeade: if you install Chrome instead of Chromium, does it work then? :) | 14:07 |
| Galeade | Chrome ? | 14:08 |
| Galeade | i'm not sure that will work, i can try, but i made tests with several browsers | 14:09 |
| smile | Google Chrome, yes | 14:09 |
| smile | Google Chrome is different - they have their own built-in flash player. Maybe that works | 14:09 |
| Galeade | ah | 14:10 |
| smile | you can install it from the ubuntu software centre I thought | 14:10 |
| Galeade | i didn't need to do that with my laptop | 14:10 |
| smile | oh, this is lubuntu :p | 14:10 |
| Galeade | i need to add a source i imagine | 14:10 |
| smile | install it from www.google.com/chrome then | 14:10 |
| smile | Galeade: not if you download it directly from google | 14:10 |
| Galeade | i have a look | 14:10 |
| Galeade | do i need to uninstall chromium ? | 14:12 |
| Galeade | okay that works | 14:16 |
| Galeade | thanks a lot | 14:17 |
| Galeade | i'm going to install chrome on all my computers | 14:17 |
| smile | Galeade: cool! :D | 14:29 |
| smile | Galeade: and no, you don't need to. :) | 14:30 |
| Galeade | i'm uninstalling anyway | 14:30 |
| Galeade | i don't need sevral browsers | 14:30 |
| blackcatgatonegr | most popular is firefox due to addons and plugins | 14:31 |
| Galeade | i don't like it, since they add the plugin container | 14:32 |
| blackcatgatonegr | chrome has add ons and plug ins but not as many as firefox. try chorium if you want to open source version of chrome. | 14:32 |
| Galeade | ty blackcatgatonegr but flash doesn't work properly | 14:32 |
| blackcatgatonegr | Galeade, you need to install the propietatio video drivers last version | 14:33 |
| blackcatgatonegr | *propietary | 14:33 |
| Galeade | blackcatgatonegr: i've tried to install everything that is possible to make flash run | 14:34 |
| Galeade | i even tried 3 graphic cards | 14:34 |
| Galeade | 2 nvidia and 1 ati | 14:34 |
| blackcatgatonegr | mmm | 14:37 |
| blackcatgatonegr | Galeade, go to preferences /adicional drivers | 14:38 |
| Galeade | i have nvidia-96 package for my drivers | 14:38 |
| blackcatgatonegr | Galeade, that driver is too old, only recomended for really old video cards | 14:38 |
| Galeade | i tried to install the current version, but that did not work | 14:39 |
| blackcatgatonegr | Galeade, go to preferences /adicional drivers pick the one that has "update" in the name | 14:39 |
| Galeade | i tried them both | 14:39 |
| blackcatgatonegr | Galeade, what is your video card? | 14:39 |
| Galeade | geforce2 mx400 | 14:40 |
| Galeade | somthing like that | 14:40 |
| Galeade | but that works, that's the most important | 14:40 |
| Galeade | the computer is for my kids | 14:41 |
| Galeade | they can both play on the same game now | 14:41 |
| blackcatgatonegr | ok, try to erase nouveau firmware if you have it from synaptic if you have it, if you don't nevermind. | 14:42 |
| blackcatgatonegr | Galeade, you can add get deb game repository to install more games but if the computer is that old some games won't work well | 14:44 |
| blackcatgatonegr | most modern ubuntu games need some kind of opengl acceleration, even 2d games | 15:02 |
| bulio | I was playing a game earlier, and my laptop locked up | 16:25 |
| bulio | yanked my battery, rebooted | 16:25 |
| bulio | now I cant get past the nvdia splash | 16:26 |
| bulio | screen goes blank | 16:26 |
| bulio | booted into a shell, checked Xorg logs | 16:26 |
| bulio | didnt find any errors | 16:26 |
| leszek | hi | 17:18 |
| hydro | i can't open Lubuntu software center | 18:17 |
| hydro | i click it and nothing happens | 18:17 |
| hydro | i'm going to restart | 18:18 |
| hydro | yah i still can't open Lubuntu software center | 18:21 |
| hydro | by clicking on it, is there another way to open it? | 18:21 |
| hydro | i'm trying to install java, should i install it through the software center or can i just use the terminal? I don't know the specific name i would need though | 18:22 |
| Unit193 | From the terminal, should display more info as well as to why it's crashing. | 18:22 |
| Unit193 | sudo apt-get install default-jre | 18:23 |
| hydro | i get this error when i try sudo apt-get install default-jre http://pastebin.com/ktC5BLwW | 18:25 |
| Unit193 | Could try sudo rm /var/lib/apt/lists/* then sudo apt-get update;sudo apt-get install default-jre | 18:27 |
| hydro | so now i get this http://pastebin.com/1CRCYRLJ | 18:30 |
| hydro | should i do apt-get autoremove? | 18:31 |
| Unit193 | You can if you want. Alright, now dpkg -l |grep jre | 18:31 |
| hydro | http://pastebin.com/Sz8L8Ymk | 18:35 |
| hydro | i'm trying to get minecraft to run | 18:36 |
| smile | bye :) | 18:37 |
| Unit193 | So with all this, what makes you think you don't have Java? | 18:39 |
| hydro | well i can't seem to run minecraft.jar | 18:40 |
| hydro | http://pastebin.com/pJR6H6g7 see? | 18:41 |
| Unit193 | But you *clearly* have java. | 18:44 |
| Unit193 | !xy | 18:44 |
| ubottu | The XY problem is when you need to do X, and you think you can use Y to do X, so you ask about how to do Y, when what you really should do is state what your X problem is. There may be a Z solution that is even better than Y, but nobody can suggest it if X is never mentioned. | 18:44 |
| hydro | oh, i'm sorry | 18:45 |
| hydro | well why won't minecraft run? | 18:45 |
| Unit193 | Change -cp to -jar | 18:46 |
| Unit193 | (Never ran MC here)_ | 18:46 |
| hydro | http://pastebin.com/XZtpenkZ | 18:49 |
| Unit193 | The file is on the desktop, right? Named exactly that? | 18:49 |
| hydro | oh its minecraft.jar not Minecraft.jar, let me try it again | 18:50 |
| hydro | yes that was the problem | 18:52 |
| Unit193 | Though, jre-7 has been reported to run better, but AFAIK is less supported. | 18:54 |
| doda | hi folks | 21:53 |
| doda | how to i add keyboard layouts in lubuntu? | 21:53 |
| doda | i mean | 21:54 |
| doda | without copying the autostart file and adding setxkbmap | 21:55 |
| webmind | I'd like to know how I can keep my layout config actually | 21:56 |
| webmind | it keeps switching back | 21:56 |
| doda | webmind: how did you set it up? | 21:57 |
| webmind | I use lxkeymap to select my layout | 21:58 |
| webmind | that works, until the next login | 21:58 |
| doda | if you edited /etc/xdg/lxsession/autostart then just copy it to ~/.config/lxsession/autostart | 21:58 |
| doda | aha, thats wierd | 21:58 |
| doda | lxkeymap is not a solution | 21:58 |
| webmind | what is it for then? | 21:59 |
| doda | since most people want english latin + their own layout | 21:59 |
| webmind | ah | 21:59 |
| webmind | there is also a switcher tool I think | 21:59 |
| doda | webmind: first do cp /etc/xdg/lxsession/autostart ~/.config/lxsession/ | 21:59 |
| webmind | yep, keyboardlayour switcher | 22:00 |
| webmind | doda, that file does not exist | 22:00 |
| webmind | but /etc/xdg/lxsession/Lubuntu/autostart does :) | 22:00 |
| doda | ah yeah :D | 22:00 |
| doda | ok, copy that :) | 22:01 |
| doda | and edit it | 22:01 |
| doda | add setxkbmap -option grp:alt_shift_toggle "us,some-language-code" | 22:02 |
| webmind | ok, should perhaps wait till later.. I just overwrote my desktop.conf | 22:02 |
| webmind | doda, k | 22:02 |
| webmind | but | 22:02 |
| doda | what desktop.conf? | 22:02 |
| webmind | you know if there will be a way to change this through the gui? | 22:02 |
| webmind | in ~/.config/lxsession/ | 22:03 |
| doda | i don't know :D, i was asking the same thing :) | 22:03 |
| webmind | doda, have you tried the keyboardlayout switcher? | 22:03 |
| webmind | or is that not the problem? | 22:04 |
| doda | that is only an switcher, you can't set nothing there | 22:04 |
| webmind | ah yes | 22:05 |
| webmind | then I haven't found it either | 22:05 |
| doda | btw, if you deleted desktop.conf it will be back on next login | 22:05 |
| webmind | but what was in there? | 22:06 |
| doda | settings for the theme as a can see | 22:09 |
| webmind | k | 22:11 |
