| superkuh | So, the torrent http://cdimages.ubuntu.com/lubuntu/releases/precise/release/lubuntu-12.04-alternate-amd64.iso.torrent actually downloads "lubuntu-12.04-desktop-i386" and not the alternate install CD. | 03:56 |
|---|---|---|
| superkuh | Or, at least it is named that. I'm downloading the alternate install via HTTP to compare. | 04:01 |
| superkuh | Yup. The torrent does actually download the wrong iso. | 04:23 |

| furycd001 | Hey can anyone help me :? I have installed lubuntu & created a custom openbox session. can anyone tell me how to remove the lubuntu session, login manager & boot straight to openbox :? | 08:34 |
| test123 | Hi all. | 14:11 |
| Jef91 | Does Lubuntu 12.04 use a PAE only kernel like Ubuntu 12.04 does? | 15:21 |
| Sentynel | Jef91: lubuntu uses the same software repositories as ubuntu, and thus the same default kernel | 15:26 |
| Jef91 | Ahh so Lubuntu 12.04 doesn't install to non-PAE systems then? | 15:27 |
| Sentynel | as far as I'm aware pae is not the default in 12.04 | 15:27 |
| Sentynel | https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EnablingPAE/ suggests PAE only becomes default in 12.10 | 15:27 |
| Sentynel | ah, the PAE kernel is provided by the installer if >3GB of system memory is detected | 15:28 |
| Sentynel | I don't know if that feature is included in lubuntu's installer, though I would guess so, but I can't see it defaulting to PAE before ubuntu does | 15:29 |
| Jef91 | thanks | 15:30 |
| smile | bye :) | 18:27 |
| silverarrow | hi | 19:20 |
| silverarrow | is there a way to connect to the internet with a laptop to laptop connection | 19:21 |
| silverarrow | I have a laptop running wireless fine, and one with only wired connection | 19:21 |
| silverarrow | hi | 19:22 |
| silverarrow | has anone manage laptop to laptop internet connection? | 19:23 |
| silverarrow | when I connect the wire from my lubuntu laptop to my windows laptop, nothing happens | 19:24 |
| silverarrow | maybe it doesn't work with wired connection | 19:25 |
| silverarrow | I have no access to the modem | 19:25 |
| silverarrow | which is silly I know | 19:25 |
| silverarrow | but there you are | 19:25 |
| silverarrow | ...or I am | 19:25 |
| Unit193 | Did you try http://askubuntu.com/questions/129579/creating-a-hotspot-in-lubuntu ? | 19:26 |
| silverarrow | i don't know why, but the power pc lubuntu is really anoying with wireless | 19:27 |
| silverarrow | neither of my usb wireless adaptors works either | 19:27 |
| silverarrow | no, I haven't asked there Unit193 | 19:28 |
| silverarrow | seems there are no direct answer either | 19:28 |
| gomiboy | silverarrow: are you using direct connection, without a hub/switch? | 19:29 |
| silverarrow | so, it's called a hotspot? | 19:29 |
| silverarrow | ...hmm... | 19:29 |
| silverarrow | ...some futher googeling... | 19:30 |
| Unit193 | There was a link to a guide, and the reason why the user couldn't get it. | 19:30 |
| Unit193 | ad hoc. | 19:30 |
| silverarrow | well, yes, it seems I have to have buntu on both computers | 19:31 |
| silverarrow | thanks for the link | 19:33 |
| silverarrow | i shall get to it | 19:33 |
| silverarrow | gomiboy: not sure, I just have a windows laptop connected to the modem with a usb wireless, and a cable from the lubuntu laptop to the windows laptop | 19:35 |
| silverarrow | I need a regular modem connection, should be less fuzz then | 19:36 |
| silverarrow | hi zleap | 19:38 |
| zleap | hi | 19:38 |
| silverarrow | I have come as far as installing lubuntu on the ibook | 19:39 |
| silverarrow | seems to run fine, but I have to fix the wireless to get connected, and some booting issue | 19:39 |
| silverarrow | I have to give a blacklist comand at boot up for it to work | 19:40 |
| silverarrow | it might sort it's self out as soon as I get the updates | 19:40 |
| silverarrow | the old ibook behaves, silent, smooth... | 19:41 |
| silverarrow | I like lubuntu | 19:41 |
| silverarrow | no need for more ram it seems, though I might get some | 19:41 |
| silverarrow | isn't 1GB a must these days? | 19:42 |
| SkippersBoss | if you want a stable sytem it seems to be the case | 19:42 |
| silverarrow | oh, I do | 19:42 |
| silverarrow | unfortunately a lot of dismateling on the ibook I think, but it is a onetime thing | 19:43 |
| silverarrow | luckily I found a guide | 19:43 |
| silverarrow | I think there a two slots in this one, one is emtpy, and max is 1.5GB | 19:44 |
| silverarrow | do anyone of you know what a "Linux b43.blacklist=yes" command is? | 19:45 |
| silverarrow | I don't think I will fuzz with it until I have done the updates | 19:45 |
| silverarrow | hoping it might sort it's self out then | 19:46 |
| zleap | i have lubuntu with 2gb works great | 19:47 |
| zleap | the black list is something to do with drivers so they are not loaded | 19:48 |
| zleap | i think | 19:48 |
| zleap | try man <command> | 19:48 |
| silverarrow | I have been looking at this neat Samsung laptop | 19:49 |
| silverarrow | much like the mac pros, very nice, light and solid | 19:50 |
| silverarrow | i mean, firmware seems well put together, both internal parts and casing | 19:50 |
| silverarrow | back later | 19:57 |
| silverarrow | ;-) | 19:57 |
| silverarrow | oh, smilies | 19:57 |
| silverarrow | on irc | 19:57 |
| zleap | k | 19:58 |
| zleap | anyone here from canada ? | 20:30 |

| Guest78978 | hi yall | 22:23 |
| Guest78978 | how do u sign in on the irc i got it registered but dont know how to sign in or what ever | 22:24 |
| pv2b | /msg nickserv identify <your nickname> <your password> | 22:25 |
| Unit193 | Or you could set it up for your client to do it for you, what client? | 22:25 |
| Guest78978 | xchat gnome | 22:41 |
| Unit193 | There should be a server password input box, put username:password in there. | 22:42 |
| === harddisk_ is now known as lubuntuHDD | ||
| lubuntuHDD | hello | 22:51 |
| kanliot | hi | 22:52 |
| lubuntuHDD | I've tried installing lubuntu 12.04 about 5 times now, and each time, the installer fails during the "copy files" portion -- I suspect hardware problems | 22:52 |
| kanliot | lemme guess you have 512 mb ram | 22:52 |
| lubuntuHDD | I'd like to test the hdd | 22:52 |
| lubuntuHDD | I have 512 or less, but alternate install fails as well | 22:53 |
| kanliot | did you try test disc? | 22:53 |
| lubuntuHDD | I don't know how to test the HDD, or what other components could be causing it to fail | 22:53 |
| lubuntuHDD | kanliot: yes | 22:53 |
| kanliot | and how did the alt install fail? | 22:53 |
| lubuntuHDD | It gave a red screen and said, "sorry, X package could not be installed" or something like that, and then asked me if I wanted to continue from a previous part of the installation | 22:54 |
| lubuntuHDD | but it would always fail, but the package it failed at varied randomly | 22:54 |
| lubuntuHDD | The CD drive would also eject randomly | 22:55 |
| lubuntuHDD | so I got a liveUSB instead, and used PloP boot manager to boot it | 22:55 |
| kanliot | how is your internet connection? | 22:56 |
| kanliot | i'm just guessing here | 22:56 |
| lubuntuHDD | I didn't set it up during the alt install | 22:56 |
| lubuntuHDD | but it worked in graphical | 22:57 |
| lubuntuHDD | when I tried that way | 22:57 |
| kanliot | did you try alternate from the liveusb? | 22:57 |
| kanliot | i mean alternate from the usb? | 22:57 |
| lubuntuHDD | yeah I understood -- not yet | 22:57 |
| lubuntuHDD | I really suspect a hardware problem though | 22:58 |
| kanliot | on the livecd | 22:58 |
| kanliot | there is a memory test | 22:58 |
| kanliot | that works pretty well | 22:58 |
| kanliot | but you should be using alternate from the usb | 22:58 |
| lubuntuHDD | I can do that -- but what if the memory is ok and something else is wrong | 22:58 |
| kanliot | yeah could be | 22:59 |
| kanliot | on my system i run systemtester it calculates pi | 22:59 |
| kanliot | to test the cpu | 22:59 |
| kanliot | and my hard drives have smart monitoring | 22:59 |
| kanliot | and if that doesn't work, i repleace the ide cables | 22:59 |
| lubuntuHDD | that could be the issue | 23:00 |
| lubuntuHDD | mine are very old | 23:00 |
| lubuntuHDD | and about a month ago, lubuntu was already installed on this computer, but just crashed and wouldn't boot up after that. | 23:00 |
| kanliot | that sounds pretty bad | 23:02 |
| kanliot | make sure cpu isn't overheating | 23:02 |
| kanliot | i guess that's obvious | 23:02 |
| kanliot | but chekc anyhow | 23:02 |
| kanliot | like with a clogged heat sing | 23:03 |
| kanliot | sink | 23:03 |
| lubuntuHDD | I can check -- and nothing is obvious... :p | 23:03 |
| lubuntuHDD | I just know enough about computers to be a danger to them lol | 23:04 |
| kanliot | should i turn my pc off? are you that dangerous? | 23:06 |
| genoobie | hey all | 23:07 |
| kanliot | hi | 23:08 |
| genoobie | trying to install "minecraft" on ubuntu so my kids can play | 23:09 |
| genoobie | but I think i am missing java virtual machine | 23:09 |
| genoobie | when I type this "java -Xmx1024M -Xms512M -cp Minecraft.jar net.minecraft.LauncherFrame" | 23:09 |
| genoobie | I get an error "Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: net/minecraft/LauncherFrame" | 23:10 |
| genoobie | "Could not find the main class: net.minecraft.LauncherFrame" | 23:10 |
| genoobie | is that because of an absent JVM? | 23:10 |
| kanliot | i'd ask in the minecraft channel | 23:10 |
| genoobie | ok, tx | 23:11 |
| kanliot | i'm sure there's one somewhere | 23:11 |
| Unit193 | It's not -cp, it's -jar | 23:15 |
| kanliot | he left | 23:15 |
| Unit193 | I know, but now so do you. :P | 23:16 |
