| * wxl uses irssi | 00:01 | |
| silverarrow | ohh | 00:01 |
| silverarrow | never used it | 00:01 |
| wxl | if you prefer guis, don't use it :) | 00:01 |
| silverarrow | gnash browser plugin is broken for powerpc | 00:01 |
| silverarrow | wonder if they fix it for 12.11 | 00:01 |
| silverarrow | or 12.10 I mean | 00:02 |
| wxl | have you filed a bug or searched for one and contributed to it? | 00:02 |
| wxl | if not, probably not | 00:02 |
| Casey | i need help with a small problem in a sh script | 00:04 |
| wxl | Casey: since this isn't a problem with lubuntu, won't don't you try, e.g. ##linux? | 00:05 |
| silverarrow | no I haven`t filed a bug | 00:06 |
| wxl | no bug = invisible | 00:06 |
| silverarrow | how do I go that? | 00:06 |
| wxl | alt-f2 to run a command | 00:07 |
| wxl | then type "ubuntu-bug gnash" without the quotes | 00:07 |
| wxl | it will walk you through it | 00:07 |

| silverarrow | hi jonathanwallace | 00:53 |
| silverarrow | I`m wondering if there is a bug in gecko player plugin | 00:58 |
| kanliot | lubuntu's lxde menu has accessories, games, system tools, how do i add a new sub-menu? | 01:07 |
| silverarrow | i`ve tested the gnome-mplayer-gecko setup on a different comptuer, it works | 01:40 |
| silverarrow | it is a powerpc build issue | 01:40 |
| silverarrow | i wonder if the powerpc gecko-plugin is broken | 01:41 |
| silverarrow | it really should work with all settings and packages I have installed | 01:41 |
| silverarrow | it just doens`t | 01:41 |
| silverarrow | we need som clever firefox lubuntu developers and fixers to take a look at it | 01:42 |
| kanliot | i hope they fix my bugs first get in line | 01:43 |
| silverarrow | lol | 01:44 |
| silverarrow | do you have a problem? | 01:44 |
| kanliot | :) | 01:44 |
| kanliot | no | 01:44 |
| silverarrow | lubuntu ppc works fine with most stuff, just not media players in browser | 01:45 |
| silverarrow | major issues | 01:45 |
| kanliot | what about vlc? | 01:45 |
| silverarrow | My iBook G4 is still very nice to work on, | 01:45 |
| silverarrow | the same | 01:45 |
| silverarrow | I have tried | 01:45 |
| kanliot | and open location in vlc | 01:45 |
| silverarrow | I have a fresh install now, I messed up too much with addons and packages | 01:46 |
| silverarrow | could not clean it up again | 01:46 |
| kanliot | mplayer-gnome isnt that stable anyhow | 01:46 |
| kanliot | it crashes firefox in my experience | 01:46 |
| silverarrow | are you sure? | 01:46 |
| kanliot | yeah it needs serious help | 01:46 |
| silverarrow | I run it in puppy 528, all fine there | 01:46 |
| silverarrow | I see, serious help must be required | 01:47 |
| silverarrow | it is the plugin | 01:47 |
| kanliot | you use gekko gnome? | 01:47 |
| silverarrow | browser plugin | 01:47 |
| kanliot | i might try that if it's stable | 01:47 |
| kanliot | does it wrap mplayer? | 01:47 |
| silverarrow | yes, both lubuntu and lucid puppy series uses it | 01:47 |
| silverarrow | wrap? not sure | 01:48 |
| kanliot | gnome-mplayer is the gnome wrapper around mplayer | 01:48 |
| kanliot | i donno what gekko is | 01:48 |
| kanliot | that's why i'm askin | 01:48 |
| silverarrow | gnome mplayer is the regular mediaplayer | 01:48 |
| silverarrow | gecko player is a plugin for firefox browser | 01:49 |
| silverarrow | it handles a lot of different stuff, like windows mediplayer oriented sites | 01:49 |
| kanliot | well it works on x86, i have to turn it off, because i prefer to download the file before i view it | 01:49 |
| silverarrow | it works fine with firefox flash video replacer | 01:50 |
| silverarrow | a bit iffy in powerpc iso though | 01:50 |
| silverarrow | only as standalone, not embedded | 01:50 |
| silverarrow | really annoying withe hte power pc mess | 01:51 |
| silverarrow | for straight flash sites that doesn`t allow flash vide replacer, it is either gnash or lightspark, or regular adobe | 01:52 |
| kanliot | so html5 doesn't work? | 01:52 |
| silverarrow | there are some really good lubuntu develpers and fixers, I`m sure they know how to deal with it | 01:53 |
| silverarrow | no, | 01:53 |
| kanliot | or flash downloader firefox plugin? | 01:53 |
| silverarrow | it plays, but stops and stars | 01:53 |
| silverarrow | downloader works | 01:53 |
| silverarrow | and I can stream in the addon Flash Video Replacer as standalone player (jumps out of browser) | 01:54 |
| silverarrow | nothing wrong with the player or hardware compatibilities, just browser and site issues | 01:54 |
| kanliot | what version of firefox u using? | 01:54 |
| silverarrow | it needs some attention | 01:54 |
| silverarrow | 11 | 01:55 |
| kanliot | i can tell you right now we get all of our ppc stuff from debian | 01:55 |
| * silverarrow jumpst right over to the #debian | 01:55 | |
| kanliot | also with 13, i'm using that. stuff is better | 01:56 |
| kanliot | mainly flash is better | 01:56 |
| kanliot | but i have to wonder if 13 would help | 01:56 |
| silverarrow | lubuntu is a bit restrictive with browser updates | 01:56 |
| silverarrow | sort of have to live with it until next release | 01:56 |
| kanliot | we get our stuff from ubuntu and debian | 01:57 |
| kanliot | if theres not a firefox 13 package for lubutnu | 01:57 |
| kanliot | it's because nobody's built it for debian | 01:57 |
| silverarrow | but doesn`t lubuntu test their powerpc iso on hardware and basic online capability ? | 01:57 |
| kanliot | yeah we have testers and devs that build the iso and thats it | 01:58 |
| kanliot | if you want something taken off the iso we could do that | 01:58 |
| silverarrow | no, I like everthing, if there could be some improvements | 01:58 |
| silverarrow | like gnash actually working | 01:59 |
| silverarrow | and mplayer-gecko setup | 01:59 |
| silverarrow | it works fine in the 32 bit version | 01:59 |
| silverarrow | I might try the debian guys though | 02:00 |
| kanliot | good luck | 02:00 |
| silverarrow | I hope that wasn`t a snarky remark | 02:00 |
| silverarrow | ;- ) | 02:02 |
| kanliot | you need luck figuring out if it's a firefox bug | 02:02 |
| kanliot | or a mplayer bug | 02:02 |
| kanliot | or a build issue | 02:02 |
| kanliot | or what | 02:02 |
| kanliot | unless you had the mplayer devs, and the firefox devs in the same room | 02:02 |
| kanliot | anyhow | 02:02 |
| kanliot | i donno | 02:02 |
| silverarrow | we might have to hold a conference | 02:03 |
| silverarrow | a work shop | 02:03 |
| kanliot | and those devs would have to be experts on ppc | 02:03 |
| silverarrow | or what ever they call it | 02:03 |
| kanliot | which they aren't | 02:03 |
| kanliot | so you would need the ppc build guys in there 2 | 02:04 |
| silverarrow | well, some clever ethusiasts ands amateurs then | 02:04 |
| silverarrow | it really should be possible | 02:05 |
| silverarrow | some old ppc guys | 02:05 |
| silverarrow | there must be some around, I doubt they have retired | 02:05 |
| kanliot | yeah find a debian guy who uses ppc and youtube | 02:06 |
| kanliot | it's possible theoretically | 02:06 |
| silverarrow | I know there is no money driving powerpc builds, but there should be basic solutios | 02:07 |
| silverarrow | my old ibook g4 is still nice | 02:07 |
| silverarrow | I promise | 02:07 |
| silverarrow | not up to date, not fancy at all but not that different | 02:08 |
| silverarrow | it appears the debian guyz prefer mozplug to mplayer-gecko, | 02:32 |
| kanliot | what channel you get info in? | 02:33 |
| silverarrow | debian | 02:34 |
| silverarrow | I haven`t even heard of mozplug | 02:34 |
| * silverarrow googles mozplug | 02:35 | |
| * silverarrow is installing mozplugger right now | 02:37 | |
| * silverarrow ...hopeing it does not intefere too much with other packages | 02:38 | |
| silverarrow | how much fiddeling is there with basic debian compared to ubuntu? | 02:39 |
| kanliot | depends | 02:39 |
| silverarrow | i like lubuntu though | 02:39 |
| silverarrow | but really dislike the mediaplayer situation for ppc | 02:40 |
| silverarrow | there should be a fix for lubuntu too really | 02:41 |
| silverarrow | it is really nice os | 02:41 |
| silverarrow | sorry for the typos | 02:42 |
| silverarrow | I`m thinking of reinstalling osx on my ibook G4 | 03:47 |
| silverarrow | at least moonlight worked there | 03:47 |

| BlitzHere | I just installed lubuntu | 16:49 |
| BlitzHere | Is there a way to refresh repository lists - for example, right after you add a new repository source, through lubuntu software center | 16:50 |
| BlitzHere | There is a big refresh button in synaptic, which was what I used but before I found that, I was striggling with Lubuntu Software center | 16:50 |
| Unit193 | Reload in synaptic, and apt-get update from CLI, but I don't know LSC. :P | 16:51 |

| stf | because i get the error: ERROR: Can't find hypervisor information in sysfs! | 20:26 |
| stf | im so far the i have the wrong kernel running, but i even cannot add the xen one to grub2, each time i run update-grub, it seems totally ignore the xen kernel in the /boot folder | 20:27 |
| bioterror | !xen | stf | 20:30 |
| ubottu | stf: XEN is a virtual machine monitor for x86 that supports execution of multiple guest operating systems with unprecedented levels of performance and resource isolation. Information on installing it for Ubuntu can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Xen | 20:30 |
| stf | this manual makes me the problems *_* | 20:32 |

| Unit193 | Typically you use the "Additional Drivers" tool. | 22:02 |
| BlitzHere | Says I don't need anything | 22:03 |
| zleap | if it is installed you may need to enable it | 22:04 |
| Unit193 | There's always the wikipage, helpful or not https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VideoDriverHowto | 22:04 |
| BlitzHere | zleap: Wait, you were right | 22:05 |
| zleap | np | 22:05 |
| Unit193 | Heh, coolio. | 22:05 |
| BlitzHere | And additional drivers does show my card. It didn't the first time though | 22:05 |
| BlitzHere | I had to add the repository and then download the drivers... | 22:06 |
