[00:01] alsamixer has a sound card config function, but it will not launch [00:04] main problem might not be that lubuntu will not run, but few ibooks run lubuntu and little experience is available [00:08] could you take a look at this wxl ? http://pastebin.com/qU7hc7Ni [00:08] that link you gave above suggests you should have snd_powermac loaded, i think [00:08] yes [00:09] from what I read, the issue might be incorrectly blacklisting of modules, but I really dont get what I am suppose to do [00:09] add the lines to the end of /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.local.conf [00:10] blacklist snd-aoa [00:10] blacklist snd-aoa-fabric-layout [00:10] blacklist snd-aoa-soundbus [00:10] blacklist snd-aoa-i2sbus [00:10] blacklist snd-aoa-codec-tas [00:12] I should run it as commands in termnial ? [00:13] sorry, I am a bit slow [00:17] in terminal at boot up.... [00:20] gksudo /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.local.conf [00:20] oops [00:20] gksudo leafpad /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.local.conf [00:20] when that opens [00:20] add those blacklist lines [00:20] save it [00:20] reboot [00:23] oh [00:26] headed home good luck [00:27] I get a white terminal window, with a blacklist [00:30] hi pilot [00:30] hey there silvewr [00:30] i need to add add a program to startup on boot ( TeamViewer7) ... any suggestions [00:30] I have the autostart file open but am not sure how to add this item [00:31] maybe a wiki somewhere [00:31] :P [00:32] yes .. im at the autostart config file but am not sure how to add this app [00:36] me neither really [00:36] I am having issues with sound [00:36] no alsamixer [00:36] and weird blacklisting issues [00:37] and no good advice [00:37] I am done for tonight gh [00:37] good night silver [00:38] good luck with your issue [00:38] I shall have to continue tomorrow [00:38] have a good night [00:38] my head has had enough for today [01:27] hello, i'm having issues with a half-installed package (scratch from http://scratch.mit.edu) [01:27] i'd like to get the package installed correctly but i'm not sure what to do next. [01:28] here's a gist of me trying apt-get on the command line: https://gist.github.com/3102188 [01:41] i manually edited the .postrm and i think i might have it licked [02:24] hi [02:43] my mom was almost a nun [02:44] oops [02:44] that's certainly a case of the wrong channel XD !! [02:46] You got a full on pause there from me. [02:46] i caught that :) === fragalot is now known as Guest70460 [13:26] magyar? [13:46] how is needed to lay onto the panel the shutdown button? [14:51] hi [14:51] is anyone familiar with powerpc on? [14:54] Hey lads, I was wondering if anyone knows an app, that can put every app in tray [14:54] hi [14:54] For example: There is a new RSS reader called 'Lightread', but it does not (yet) have System Tray support, but I would like it to run in the backgorund in my system tray (so it does not show in ALT+TAB) [14:55] I don't know of anything Timo_, but you could request system tray support [14:55] the app is very new afaik [14:56] nothingspecial: yes, of course I can do that, and I am certain it will come, but it's not only for Lightread :P [14:56] another question then: [14:57] is it possible to keep applications running (like in Docky, or something), but not have it show up in ALT+TAB? [14:58] alltray - Dock any program into the system tray, no idea if it works. [14:59] Unit193: thanks, will try :D [14:59] I guess my Googling failed, maybe I should've used Synaptic/Software Center :p [15:00] mmm it works halfly :p [15:01] The Show/Hide function does not work, unfortunatly :( [15:01] hi :) [15:02] Somoene know the difference between lubuntu et xubuntu. I don't know wich one to have [15:03] lubuntu will run on a lower spec computer [15:03] Lubuntu runs on LXDE and Xubuntu on XFCE [15:03] LXDE and XFCE are both 'Desktop Enviroments', just like Gnome and KDE [15:03] Ok [15:03] Xfce is like nothingspecial stated a bit bloatier (although, still lightweight) [15:04] I've read that Xubuntu start with only 64RAM mo and 2 Giga storage [15:04] that is the same for lubuntu ? [15:05] That's not right for Lubuntu or Xubuntu. [15:05] they'll both not run with that [15:05] Ho ? [15:05] I've read this on the official website [15:05] Strange [15:07] Not quite, it says the alternate installer only needs that, but the actual system needs more. [15:07] mm KDocker did the trick :) thanks for the hlep [15:08] Heh, really? Wouldn't have thought that'd work. :P [15:09] well AllTray could not Show/Hide (maybe it does not support OpenBox), but KDocker works like a charm (although I would love to see mouse scrollwheel support :P) [15:09] But hey, I can't be too picky :p [15:10] maybe I can try to make a patch :D [15:10] but probably not, as my desktop programming skills are not really good :D [15:11] is there any reason why jave would not run in lubuntu? [15:12] silverarrow: it should work, but Java can be a pain [15:12] What are you trying to install? OpenJDK or Oracle SUN? [15:12] I have installed the openjdk packages [15:12] on lubuntu powerpc build [15:12] not sure why it acts up, [15:15] so java -version does not work? [15:18] the ppc FAQ page only mentiones speed issues only [15:19] no, neither my bank, or the java test on their own site [15:20] but the command java -version in the terminal [15:20] did you try that? [15:20] it could be that you don't have the IcedTea plugin installed [15:20] no, terminal version? [15:20] which would result in the websites not working [15:20] Do you know how to open a terminal? [15:20] the program is called LXTerminal [15:20] hmm, i think I have all packages though, not completely sure [15:22] http://pastebin.com/gqCXsU58 [15:22] that is what I get when I write java in terminal [15:22] does it make any sense? [15:23] could you do java -version [15:23] the -version after JAVA [15:24] And yes, silverarrow it makes sense, this tells u that Java is installed :) [15:25] http://pastebin.com/YPWnusFk [15:26] type this in the terminal: sudo apt-get install icedtea-6-plugin [15:26] and then restart your browser [15:27] ohh, something is happening [15:27] back rightg aftger restart [15:28] working !!! [15:29] thanks [15:29] :- ) [15:29] it suddenly seemed very simple [15:30] i spend ages searching for answer [15:31] this is more like it though, a missing plugin [15:31] not ppc special weirdness lol [15:32] not it seems it`s only the gecko plugin and dvd left that needs attention [15:36] is there a command for chicking plugins for firfox? I used to be very happy with a gecko pluging, but it was for regular pc [15:36] I could try moonlight, it`s there in package manger [15:37] but gecko and firefox worked great as a windows mediaplayer replacement [15:37] is gecko default with lubuntu 12.04 when restricked packages are installed? [15:37] i think it was so in 11.10 [15:41] wb philipballew_ [15:41] java works [15:43] does anyone know how to investigate the gnome mplayer setup with gecko and firefox? [15:43] silverarrow: I'm glad it owrked :D [15:44] Moonlight is not developed any more, and the plugin is not supported for the newer Firefox any more.. [15:44] yes thanks, very clever with the icedtea plugin [15:44] I see [15:44] not gecko and mplayer? [15:44] either I mean? [15:44] You *could* download the plugin, extract it, change the 'supported version number' and repackage it [15:44] I liked that one a lot [15:45] hmm [15:45] repackage? [15:45] not sure I am clever enough [15:46] there is a tutorial on the internet (I did it myself osme time ago) [15:46] I even see they ask for ppc testers for 12.10 but I struggle too much with the basic I feel [15:46] but as I said, it's old, so it will not always support the newer Silverlight options [15:46] I see [15:46] and the gecko thing, it's also a plugin, afaik. You could try to search in synaptic [15:46] or software center [15:47] but I can't help you out right now, I've got to go :P (someones waiting for me!) [15:47] Good luck! I'll be back some day :P [15:48] I seem to have it, it just doesn`t work [15:48] gecko I mean [15:50] is it ppc weirdness that make streams difficult? [15:52] what is the best flash replacer? [15:53] or any really [15:53] I suppose I need to try them out [15:56] is opera suppose to be in package manager? [16:19] Hi guys, can you help me with black screen after booting new Lubuntu? With F8 i'm able to get to system without GUI i think. [16:20] I've no clue why GUI doesn't work, startscreen with logo is displayed, but after few moments it just goes black. [16:37] hi again [16:41] how to make streaming work with gecko firefox and mplayer [16:49] if I mess around with vlc mozilla plugin, and vlc in firefox, is it possible to get back to the mplayer gecko set up? [17:00] dvds are playing [17:00] yoohoo [17:00] both vlc and mplayer [17:00] now I regret adding vlc a bit [17:28] a lot of this non-pc talk seems just silly [17:28] the ibook [17:28] sorry...@ [17:28] doing a benchmark test and report, this ibook shows having a celeron M processor [17:29] which sort of makes in a pc more than a notpc [17:30] I don`t get why powerpc build and mac are such oposites [17:30] to the rest of the pcs I mean [17:45] hi [17:46] what lib is needed for the gecko plugin to work? [17:46] or perhaps something interfering with it [17:56] hi jonathanwallace [17:58] hey silverarrow [17:59] how are you? [17:59] I`m trying to make online tv stream in mplayer gecko setup [17:59] which is the default I think [17:59] at least after restricted packages is installed [18:00] I wonder if I could be missing some package [18:00] i think restricted packages should include everything though [18:17] is anyone clever with gecko and mplayer? [18:18] what alternatives are there to flash really? [18:24] silverarrow: i'm not too sure, i usually use things like VLC if linux apps don't cut it [18:25] i'm a lazy linux user [18:25] well, me too really, what ever works [18:25] if I install vlc mozilla plugin I am stuck with it [18:26] I have a very hard time getting back to the gnome mplayer gecko settup [18:27] lubuntu runs really nicely now, but with a few issues that still need atension [18:27] I am tempted to try vlc and molizza plugin [18:28] I haven῭t been able to make it stream the local tv channel before, but I know some have [18:28] at some point developers went for mplayer and abandoned vlc === Guest70460 is now known as fragalot [18:33] though VLC was my favorite for years [18:33] still is [18:40] but mplayer works nicely [18:59] what are flash alternatives for powerpc build ? [19:56] Messieur dame bonsoir :) [19:57] Quelqu'un aurait-il un peu de patience pour un petit problème de MBR? [19:58] !fr [19:58] Ce canal est en anglais uniquement. Si vous avez besoin d'aide ou voulez discuter en français, veuillez taper /join #ubuntu-fr ou /join #ubuntu-qc. Merci. [19:58] Sorry ^^ [20:43] pidgin crashes [20:44] as soon as I have joined a channel it crashes [20:44] i think it might be a bug of some sort [20:45] I tried to go on irc the first time I booted 12.04 and it has behaved the same way every since [20:50] I keep wondering if I miss some codecs for windows media plugins, like gecko for mplayer [20:50] not sure hot to check it either [20:51] I initially thought everything wold be in the two restriced packages, but I`m not so sure anymore [20:51] any ideas about that? [20:51] hi gomiboy [20:53] Hi :) [20:57] anything happening? [20:57] hi margo [20:57] I`m still working on my ibook installation [20:57] which is gradually getting better [20:58] are you in lubuntu gomiboy and margo ? [20:59] when I try to run web tv in firefox, it blinks black, then cuts [20:59] I`m wondering if I might miss some libs or codecs? [21:00] yes, on an exotic hardware, like you (toshiba ac100, arm processor) [21:00] can't help there, no flash here, only html5... [21:00] or since it is powerpc lubuntu, it might be blacklisting issues [21:01] it is gecko mplayer setup, for windows media player oriented stream [21:02] I could try installing moonlight, but it seems to be an abandoned project these days [21:02] hi jarnos [21:02] or vlc mozilla stuff [21:03] thought, mplayer has worked well before [21:03] I think something is missng [21:05] silverarrow, you are missing a point. [21:09] yeah, could be [21:10] jarnos: what point then? [21:10] silverarrow: PPC isn't as supported as 32bit, you end up having to do workarounds and trying a bunch of things to get it working. PPC is a bit dead, so it's only small communities still doing stuff with it, hence no flash. [21:11] I just have to keep searching for the right workanroud [21:23] pidgin crashing in IRC usage isn't news [21:23] it isn't an IRC client although it has some IRC capabilities [21:27] it has worked before though [21:27] I added mozilla, which works fine for the moment [21:27] sorry, chatzilla [22:40] hi [22:49] is there a way to test and configure gnash+ [22:49] ? [22:49] and I am wondering if I could install both gnash and lightspark at once, with out messing up [22:50] gnash is default in 12.04, but not the browser plugin package [22:53] how do I make sure the gnash browser plugin is wroking in 12.04? [23:01] does anyone use gnash or lightspark? [23:05] good evening everyone. may i ask a question? [23:05] any gnash knowlegeable people aournd? [23:05] that`s what we do here lol [23:06] hoping some clever guys are around [23:06] well, we may hae a similar question. i would like to know why flash and shockwave do not seem to work on lubuntu anymore [23:06] Worry, are you new to lubuntu? [23:06] Worry: Just ask and if someone knows... [23:06] yes, iam [23:06] sorry if i am making errors:) [23:06] What packages do you have? Did you have it working before? [23:07] adobe flash has always been something you had to install on your own [23:07] i did a clean sweep and iinstalled the latest version of lubuntu [23:07] It won't have it by default. [23:07] i am aware of that' [23:07] I am trying to make gnash or lightspark work too [23:07] also, adobe flash will no longer be supporting linxu [23:07] linux [23:07] I recommend adding the !partner repo and installing adobe-flashplugin. [23:08] you added the two restricted packages? [23:08] in package manager? [23:08] Worry: Not quite, pepperflash is how they're doing it. [23:08] (And security for normal) [23:08] pepperflash? [23:08] okay, i feel dizzy:) [23:08] heh [23:08] !partner [23:08] Canonical's partner repositories provide packages a location for software vendors to publish applications. The repo itself can be added by running this in a !terminal: « sudo add-apt-repository "deb http://archive.canonical.com/ $(lsb_release -sc) partner" » [23:09] okay, i will cut that one and paste it. thanks:) [23:09] Worry: yeah, that`s what a few hours of lubuntu mess does to us lol [23:09] my god, all day on this [23:09] After that, try sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install adobe-flashplugin [23:10] oh i get those to download and supposedly install, but i get the i am dead jim message on firefox and chromium [23:10] And you did restart the browsers? [23:11] always:) [23:11] Try dpkg -l |grep flash and see what it says. [23:11] i am not reboot shy:) [23:11] thanks unit, i will cut that [23:12] I like Lubuntu because it allows my Dell Inspiron 8100 to work:) [23:13] they do not make laptop keyboards like that anymore:) [23:14] is dell a bad word? ;) [23:14] Hope not, I have two. I rather like them. What did the output gibve you?> [23:14] (Maybe their keyboard aren't good >_> ) [23:15] i am using another laptop now with edubuntu, but i will try it later [23:15] :) i like the keyboard because it is solid and meant to last:) [23:15] But with the issue at hand, flash not working. [23:16] it worked previously. just the latest version of lubuntu is a dud on it [23:16] have u used gnash Unit193 ? [23:16] No. [23:16] yeppers [23:16] swf, lightspark [23:17] summoning demons, etc [23:17] ;) [23:18] it was the only lxde system that ever really worked for me:) [23:19] fedora, opensuse ldxe systems were garbage [23:19] and i am not into mongrel(puppy linux);) [23:20] Those systems work for others, but YMMV. [23:20] i am powerfully stupid though:) [23:21] kde exceeds my intelligence quotient:) [23:21] Give me a sec, I'm pretty sure I didn't have issues with it, are there any messages with flash on screen? [23:21] i will try it when i am on that system. i have more than one laptop:) [23:21] i am on edubuntu:) [23:22] but, i have cut and past the screen for your links and remarks [23:23] i do not want to give up on lubuntu [23:24] the messages are just plugins not installed, even when they are [23:24] or it just gives me a nice blue screen in the video area. [23:25] or, it just falls over and crashes [23:25] like a wino at 2 am [23:25] :) [23:26] should i be entirely serious and logical here? [23:26] :( [23:28] i will stick to the point with fewer pleasantries [23:30] Well, it's good on one computer but failing on another. [23:30] not like you are interrupting anything at the moment [23:30] thank you. [23:30] So, I'd recommend you try to disable hardware acceleration, and hope it helps. :P [23:31] Flash is black magic, if it works, it works. :P [23:31] i will see if it does [23:31] i will chant;) [23:31] 'laptops are possessed;) [23:32] Same versions of firefox, same sources for the plugin, yet on one it's not working. [23:33] yes [23:33] lubuntu did not do the last upgrade well, unlike xubuntu and ubuntu [23:34] I'll be doing a clean install in a VM here soon. My upgrades went well actually. [23:34] the only one i have never gotten to work right ever is kde [23:38] how do I take a screen shot in lubuntu? [23:38] there is no screen shot key on macs [23:38] Print screen, or type scrot in terminal. [23:39] thank you for your time [23:39] Worry: Sorry mate, may try #ubuntu if it's a current issue. [23:40] thanks. see you later [23:44] where does the screen shot store when typing scrot in terminal? [23:53] Current dir.
