| surt | Hello! I have installed Thunar to manage my files, when I try to mount drives and devices it asks for the root password with the command: "Authentication is required to mount the device". | 03:18 |
|---|---|---|
| surt | My parter uses my PC while I'm away and she doesn't know my password, so I can this be fixed at all? | 03:18 |

| Unit193 | Did you have a support question? | 05:11 |
| Phiscribe | no | 05:15 |
| silverarrow | does swap kick in automatically when needed, or does it have to be activated some how, flag set in partition manager or somthing? | 08:34 |
| Oe_eden | Ive started using lubuntu and love it: clean, mean & fast but I have the same question as these guys: | 09:03 |
| Oe_eden | http://lubuntu.net/blog/development-1204 | 09:03 |
| Oe_eden | window snap anyone? | 09:03 |
| smile | hi :) | 10:27 |
| Oe_eden | hi :) | 10:31 |
| Oe_eden | and the logo... it isnt very pretty imho | 11:54 |
| Oe_eden | this is funny though :) http://wiki.lxde.org/en/LXDE:Questions#What_is_the_LXDE_logo_supposed_to_be.3F_An_evil_sorcerer.27s_hand.3F | 11:54 |
| smile | :p | 12:08 |
| smile | ^^ | 12:08 |
| smile | Oe_eden: good luck adapting it to your modern needs ;) | 12:09 |
| Oe_eden | i have low needs so that wont be a problem :) | 12:09 |
| Oe_eden | btw does anyone know the reasoning with not bundling vlc as the default mediaplayer? | 12:10 |
| bob_ | hey i have a problem | 12:20 |
| bob_ | i want to dual boot lubuntu | 12:21 |
| bioterror | then you dual boot :-) | 12:22 |
| bioterror | what's the problem? | 12:22 |
| bob_ | but windows me is installed | 12:22 |
| bioterror | oh gawd | 12:22 |
| bob_ | and then i have to drag a line to seperate two partitions | 12:22 |
| bioterror | Support for Windows Me ended on July 11, 2006 | 12:23 |
| bob_ | but i dont know what part is windows and what part is lubuntu | 12:23 |
| bioterror | why? | 12:23 |
| bob_ | do you know what part is lubuntu (the left part or the right part)?) | 12:24 |
| bioterror | usually it should tell you which is which | 12:25 |
| bob_ | that is my problem i have already installed ubuntu on my netbook | 12:26 |
| bob_ | and when i did that it did tell me | 12:27 |
| bob_ | but now i install lubuntu it didn tell me | 12:27 |
| bioterror | probably it just does not understand this windows me | 12:27 |
| bioterror | as it's more than ancient | 12:27 |
| bioterror | if you have a real reason to keep quite badly outdated microsoft windows on your computer, then dual boot | 12:28 |
| bioterror | but I would not hesitate for a moment to just use whole disk | 12:28 |
| bob_ | i have still software that i use a lot on my windows me profile | 12:28 |
| bob_ | if i drag the line as far as i can to the left the left part is 12,3 gb and the right part is 28.6 gb | 12:29 |
| bob_ | if i drag the line to the right as far as i can then the left part is 36,4 gb and the right part 4.4 gb | 12:30 |
| bioterror | does it tells you filesystems? | 12:31 |
| bioterror | like Fat32 or NTFS | 12:31 |
| bob_ | no it doent | 12:31 |
| bioterror | if you look for examples, mostly the one on the left is current | 12:31 |
| bob_ | ok | 12:32 |
| bob_ | i have to go but thanks a lot | 12:33 |
| bob_ | i will think about earesing my whole hard disk | 12:33 |
| bob_ | and sorry for my bad english | 12:33 |
| bob_ | bye | 12:33 |
| bioterror | it's not an bad option | 12:33 |
| bioterror | :-) | 12:33 |
| zleap | hi | 13:14 |
| zleap | if you open file manger in 11.10 and then unmount a mounted device does it close the whole window ? and should it | 13:14 |
| holstein | not sure about lubuntu 11.10, but i have seen different behavior from differnt OS's ..sometimes, i see an error message about the resource being busy or missing | 13:20 |
| holstein | zleap: what is it doing? and what would you like it to do? | 13:20 |
| zleap | when i say unmount a partition or device the whole window closes | 13:22 |
| zleap | i would expect it to just indicate its unmounted, (arrow symbol appears when mounted) | 13:22 |
| holstein | zleap: the device is gone, so thats one option that isnt bad | 13:22 |
| zleap | but should the whole file manager window close | 13:22 |
| holstein | zleap: lubuntu and LXDE is designed to be light, leaving some "conveniences" out | 13:23 |
| zleap | ok | 13:23 |
| holstein | zleap: it doesnt bother me that it closes like that | 13:23 |
| zleap | ok np i was asking to make sure its meant to do that | 13:23 |
| holstein | zleap: im sure you can have it revert to /home | 13:23 |
| zleap | ok | 13:23 |
| zleap | i will look in the preferences | 13:23 |
| holstein | zleap: :) | 13:23 |
| zleap | i have a 2gb ram system, so its just better than using unity | 13:24 |

| bioterror | :D | 18:31 |
| sasi | it's supposed to be 12.04 no? | 18:31 |
| bioterror | why you did not use: sudo do-release-upgrade? | 18:31 |
| sasi | I was not aware of that,, what's the difference? | 18:31 |
| bioterror | http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/lucid/man8/do-release-upgrade.8.html | 18:32 |
| sasi | btw I'm having to do sudo ifconfig eth0 192.168.1.2 netmask 255.255.255.0 up && route add default gw 192.168.1.1 eth0 | 18:35 |
| sasi | to get ethernet to my modem. | 18:35 |
| sasi | How I do it automatically? | 18:35 |
| sasi | with a GUI. | 18:35 |
| bioterror | networkmanager should do it automatically if you tell it to use dhcp | 18:35 |
| bioterror | as it's set by default | 18:36 |
| sasi | Do I go to "Network connections"? | 18:38 |
| sasi | Because DHCP is already set in a Wired connection there | 18:50 |

| VanKush | hello, please what exactly happens when Lubuntu asks me to file a crash report? | 19:57 |
| VanKush | I cannot access the report content somehow and it fails to obtain privileges from gksu, and thus I somehow get the same request to file a crash report anytime I start LXDE | 19:58 |
| wxl | VanKush: it collects info, searches for dupes, and if it finds none, tries to file a new report on launchpad | 19:58 |
| wxl | what version? | 19:59 |
| VanKush | 12.4 | 19:59 |
| wxl | so let me get this straight: | 20:00 |
| wxl | 1. you start up | 20:00 |
| wxl | 2. when the desktop is up, you see the dialog | 20:00 |
| wxl | 3. if you click on report details or whatever it fails to give it to you (what happens exactly?) | 20:00 |
| wxl | 4. if you let it file the report it asks you for privs | 20:01 |
| wxl | 5. when you enter the privs it doesn't seem to do anything? what exactly happens again? | 20:01 |
| VanKush | 2. an onscreen display with cancel/file bug button displays, afaik there is no possibility to review details | 20:02 |
| wxl | can you get a screenshot of it? | 20:02 |
| VanKush | 4. gksu dialog opens, blacking out the rest of screen. I enter my pwd and the screen flickers half a second (probably some irrelevant xorg issue) and then nothing else opens | 20:03 |
| VanKush | ok, let me restart | 20:04 |
| VanKush | the bug in merit is probably a nonextant bluetooth hardware and a failure of bluemon applet, which has been removed and purged already. The bug call is quite likely a tens of reboots old | 20:05 |
| souliaq | Lubuntu 12.04 32 bits: When I change the resolution in "monitor settings" (to a lower resolution), this changes well, but When a window is maximized, this keep the "layout" of a bigger resolution. It means a big part of window is outside of the visible area. Restart is not working. | 20:05 |
| VanKush | how can I comfortably file the screenshot? | 20:07 |
| wxl | VanKush: well comfortably i don't know :) but just posting to smoe image host will suffice | 20:08 |
| VanKush | give me a lead please | 20:08 |
| wxl | imageshack.us | 20:09 |
| wxl | souliaq: not ignoring you, just don't know what to tell you | 20:09 |
| souliaq | ok, in google I can't find the same problem, but I tested this in two real computers and multiple VM, the problem always are the same. | 20:10 |
| VanKush | wxl: http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/88/201207302206501366x768s.png/ | 20:12 |
| VanKush | nothing, just a request and two buttons | 20:12 |
| wxl | ok souliaq see if this helps https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Lubuntu/Documentation/FAQ/Workarounds#Screen_resolution_is_wrong.2C_no_matter_what_I_do | 20:12 |
| wxl | and if not, then you may want to try tweaking with xrandr/arandr https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Config/Resolution | 20:13 |
| wxl | nice kitty XD | 20:13 |
| wxl | and if you click on report problem then it asks for privs VanKush ? | 20:14 |
| VanKush | it's my lady's ideapad | 20:14 |
| wxl | suuuuuuuuuuuuuuuure, excuses, excuses | 20:14 |
| wxl | ;) | 20:14 |
| VanKush | yes, a gksu displays. after entering a password, nothing happens | 20:14 |
| wxl | what is the result of `lsb_release -a` ? | 20:15 |
| VanKush | No LSB modules are available. | 20:16 |
| VanKush | Distributor ID: Ubuntu | 20:16 |
| VanKush | Description: Ubuntu 12.04 LTS | 20:16 |
| VanKush | Release: 12.04 | 20:16 |
| wxl | well that's good | 20:16 |
| wxl | i question this because the bug reporting tool changed recently and so that sequence seems old | 20:16 |
| wxl | have you updated the system recently? if not, you should | 20:17 |
| wxl | what is the result of `apt-cache policy apport` ?? | 20:18 |
| wxl | should be >2.0.1-0ubuntu5 | 20:18 |
| wxl | if not it needs updated | 20:18 |
| VanKush | http://pastebin.com/8QXQTjNB | 20:21 |
| wxl | yeah you have the precise-updates version so that's good | 20:21 |
| wxl | VanKush: do you have anything in /var/log/apport.log? | 20:22 |
| wxl | or anything in /var/crash/ | 20:22 |
| VanKush | apport.log.1 is positive with some jul\28 entry | 20:24 |
| VanKush | apport.log is negative | 20:24 |
| wxl | hm maybe pastebin .1 | 20:24 |
| VanKush | $ ls /var/crash | 20:25 |
| VanKush | _usr_bin_blueman-applet.1000.crash | 20:25 |
| VanKush | _usr_bin_vlc.1000.crash | 20:25 |
| VanKush | _usr_lib_x86_64-linux-gnu_colord_colord.103.crash | 20:25 |
| wxl | ah ha, oh ho | 20:25 |
| wxl | what are the dates on those? | 20:26 |
| wxl | any rfom today? | 20:26 |
| VanKush | apport.log.1 relates to the colord | 20:26 |
| VanKush | yea, the blueman I mentioned. at 19.55 the log was created. I removed blueman an reconfigured initrd, and cancelled the bug report from KDE, where it has not popped out since | 20:28 |
| VanKush | i mean, now it is 22.28 in slovakia | 20:28 |
| VanKush | and like 5 reboots have passed | 20:29 |
| * wxl grumbles something about bluetooth | 20:29 | |
| VanKush | wut? | 20:30 |
| wxl | did you blacklist the bluetooth modules? https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Lubuntu/Documentation/FAQ/Guides#Disable_Bluetooth | 20:30 |
| wxl | oh, bluetooth ALWAYS seems to be a problem. | 20:30 |
| wxl | …and yes, i realize you said you removed it | 20:31 |
| VanKush | I have removed it from initrd, and uninstalled the app. There is no more crashing, but it attempts to file the bug all again | 20:31 |
| VanKush | no longer under KDE, but still in LXDE | 20:32 |
| wxl | i'd give it a shot (the blacklisting) | 20:32 |
| wxl | it can't hurt | 20:32 |
| souliaq | wxl: xrandr/arandr resolve this problem partially, because when I restart, the problem comes again. | 20:32 |
| wxl | VanKush: you might want to try moving that .crash report | 20:33 |
| wxl | THAT may be the key! | 20:33 |
| wxl | …which if it is, will solve a problem i've had | 20:33 |
| VanKush | wxl: a brilliant cheeze, will try | 20:34 |
| VanKush | btw, my lady just got offended by your disregard for the kitten on the wallpaper... | 20:34 |
| wxl | i LIKE the kitty | 20:35 |
| wxl | ;) | 20:35 |
| VanKush | yea, I'll try to forward that one | 20:35 |
| wxl | souliaq: not having used either before i'm not sure if they're permanent or not. assuming they're not, you can make them autostart https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Lubuntu/Documentation/FAQ/Guides#How_I_can_autostart_a_program_when_logging_into_Desktop | 20:35 |
| wxl | btw souliaq i suggest the latter methodology for what you're doing | 20:35 |
| VanKush | if she feels offended, I'm the one to take the bullet regardless of the culprit | 20:36 |
| VanKush | ;] | 20:36 |
| wxl | oh well, then, by all means, let her think what she wants XD | 20:36 |
| VanKush | brb reboot | 20:41 |
| VanKush | wxl: I applied both things and now I don't know which one fixed the issue :( | 20:44 |
| VanKush | yet it is fine now ofc :) | 20:45 |
| wxl | aw poo | 20:45 |
| wxl | well at least you're fixed XD | 20:45 |
| VanKush | and the bluetooth blacklist also fixed some resource error in Pacman | 20:45 |
| wxl | ah cool | 20:46 |
| VanKush | translated to small words, thank you :) | 20:46 |
| wxl | no problem | 20:46 |
| wxl | you fixed, too, souliaq ? | 20:46 |
| wxl | cuz my tummy's rumbling and i think i'm going to grab a snack | 20:47 |
| VanKush | g'nite & keep up the good work | 20:48 |
| wxl | thx VanKush take care | 20:49 |
| wxl | pet the kitty for me XD | 20:49 |
| souliaq | I going to resolve this with that, but is in fact a lxde problem, that must be solved. | 20:55 |
| souliaq | thanks. | 20:55 |
