[01:59] <Ahmuck> hi.  i need us international keyboard with dead keys
[01:59] <Ahmuck> however when i set this, every reboot I have to reset it again
[01:59] <Ahmuck> how do i set this permantly?
[02:03] <kanliot> can you edit /etc/xdg/lxsession/Lubuntu/autostart?
[02:13] <Ahmuck> yes
[02:13] <Ahmuck> kanliot: yes
[02:19] <Ahmuck> is there something I can place there that would set my keyboard?
[02:20] <Ahmuck> @setxkbmap -option
[02:20] <Ahmuck> option ?
[02:21] <Ahmuck> should i not be able to set it and have it work without resetting it every time?
[02:43] <kanliot> sorry ahmuck wasmt watching
[02:43] <kanliot> how are you starting setxkbmap?
[02:43] <kanliot> exact line please
[02:51] <Ahmuck> preference --
[02:51] <Ahmuck> lxkeymap
[02:52]  * Ahmuck bump kanliot
[02:52] <kanliot> so you arent switching keyboard layouts with the keyboard with xkbmap?
[02:52] <kanliot> setxkbmap
[02:54] <Ahmuck> no
[02:54] <Ahmuck> i am using the menu
[02:54] <Ahmuck> itś like there are four options on the menu
[02:55] <Ahmuck> sorry for the accent
[02:55] <kanliot> ok
[02:55] <kanliot> lemme google for a minute
[02:55] <kanliot> let me
[03:01]  * Ahmuck tried that
[03:01] <Ahmuck> it seems like it would be simple, set the keyboard and go
[03:06] <kanliot> arabic, right?
[03:06] <kanliot> can you edit /etc/default/keyboard
[03:06] <kanliot> and change XKBLAYOUT to
[03:06] <kanliot> "ar"
[03:07] <kanliot> not sure if it will work ahmuck
[03:07] <kanliot> best guess :)
[03:12] <PH_5> hey in Movie Player, what do i do when a message like this appear "GStreamer encountered a general supporting library error."?
[03:14] <kanliot> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=7720350 | PH_5
[03:14] <PH_5> Kanliot: thanks
[03:14] <kanliot> just a guess man
[03:14] <kanliot> you can thank me if it works :)
[03:35] <Ahmuck> what is ar keyboard?
[03:35] <Ahmuck> kanliot:
[03:37] <kanliot> i believe it's arabic
[03:37] <kanliot> which keyboard layout would you like?
[03:38] <Ahmuck> us international with dead keys
[03:38] <Ahmuck> xbvariant
[03:38] <kanliot> there's us_intl
[03:38] <Ahmuck> or xboptions?
[03:38] <Ahmuck> oh, that might work
[03:39] <Ahmuck> http://www.xfree86.org/4.8.0/XKB-Config2.html\
[03:40] <bioterror> as Xorg hardly relays on Xorg.conf nowdays
[03:40] <bioterror> I have my xkblayout settings in /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/10-evdev.conf
[03:41] <Ahmuck> bioterror: my problem is everytime i use the menu to change lxkeymap to us internatioanl with dead keys upone reboot i have to reset it
[03:41] <Ahmuck> i need a way to type accents for spanish
[03:41] <Ahmuck> so i was wondering why it did not stay set
[03:42] <bioterror> becouse it is not configured to stay set
[03:42] <PH_5> Kanliot: no it didn't :(
[03:42] <bioterror> you need to tweak this evdev.conf
[03:43] <bioterror> and add there this XkbLayout "us" to Section "inputdevice"
[03:44] <andantino> does the lubuntu installer provide any options regarding grub?
[03:44] <Ahmuck> is it really that hard to switch the default keyboard
[03:44] <bioterror> andantino, no
[03:44] <bioterror> Ahmuck, yes. it's that hard. to add a line to a config file
[03:46] <andantino> that's all part of the fun, Ahmuck
[03:46] <andantino> not hard, fun
[03:47] <Ahmuck> k
[03:47] <bioterror> that's how GNU/Linux systems works
[03:47] <Ahmuck> well, my studying is done here at the uni, so i am heading home
[03:47] <Ahmuck> l8r
[03:48] <andantino> no you cant go, you have to repeat it 'thats all part of the fun'
[03:48] <andantino> ooops too late
[03:48] <bioterror> :D
[03:49] <andantino> so basically, if i install lubuntu next to my current linux, i will have to use the grub menu from lubuntu
[03:49] <andantino> i guess it doenst matter
[05:12] <tweak-daddy> hi. when i downloaded, two times, the lubuntu 64-bit ISO  fca2034b89e8a0acd6536d41ccec061c *lubuntu-12.04-desktop-amd64.iso
[05:13] <tweak-daddy> that is what is reported on the website as the MD5sum, but that does not match what downloads from the link on lubuntu site.
[05:14] <tweak-daddy> and what downloads is not recognized as a valid file when I try burning it to a DVD.
[05:14] <tweak-daddy> something is wrong with the download linked file, I suspect.
[05:23] <Unit193> http://thesii.org/iso/lubuntu/precise/lubuntu-12.04-desktop-amd64.iso  Try that, but the other should be just fine.
[05:25] <Unit193> fca2034b89e8a0acd6536d41ccec061c  lubuntu-12.04-desktop-amd64.iso  after downloading from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/lubuntu/releases/12.04/release/lubuntu-12.04-desktop-amd64.iso
[05:39] <tweak-daddy> that one worked, but the one I got here, two different times, does not: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Lubuntu/GetLubuntu
[05:40] <tweak-daddy> thank you, Unit193. your link also shows the same MD5SUM reported on the website where I downloaded. Something with that link is not right.
[05:40] <Unit193> Sure thing, but what exact link did you use first?
[05:42] <tweak-daddy> http://cdimages.ubuntu.com/lubuntu/releases/precise/release/lubuntu-12.04-desktop-amd64.iso
[05:44] <Unit193> Hmmm... I got fca2034b89e8a0acd6536d41ccec061c off that one.
[05:48] <tweak-daddy> in that case something bizarre happened to my download, twice.  That is strange.
[05:48] <Unit193> If that happens, I recommend zsync.
[05:49] <Unit193> !zsync
[06:04] <tweak-daddy> thanks, ubottu, that does indeed look like a good program.
[06:24] <kanliot> I'd like to answer this question on the forum.  I know a little bit, but can someone give me the proper answer?  http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2062905  how do you autostart a program in Lubuntu?
[06:32] <jmarsden> kanliot: to autostart at logon, see the Lubutu FAQ: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Lubuntu/Documentation/FAQ/Guides#How_I_can_autostart_a_program_when_logging_into_Desktop
[06:33] <jmarsden> If he truly needs "at boot", then you can hack /etc/rc.local or add an iniscript for the program of interest to turn it into a service, so that service is started at boot.
[06:36] <kanliot> thx jmarsden  but is this method less good?  it's whats confusing me: http://askubuntu.com/a/151946/21503
[06:52] <tweak-daddy> Seems a bit odd to me that the Lubuntu installer suggests that "You may wish to update this installer," when in fact it is the latest version which I just downloaded. I mean, are there a lot of changes in downloaders that don't get updated too quickly with the online links?
[06:57] <kanliot> 12.04?
[06:57] <kanliot> you'll be updating your system anyway
[06:58] <coder2> Hello. I have installed the OS on an AMD Fusion mobo. AMD propietaty driver was installed. There are two problems leftt: 60Hz  refresh rate on analog monitor and no sound  from analog output - I suspect that it use wrong default output. Please help.
[07:00] <kanliot>  monitor settings for first problem
[07:01] <kanliot> is this a laptop?
[07:01] <kanliot> i hate to send you to the audio troubleshooting
[07:04] <coder2> kanlot: Sorry, are you talked me? Concerning the problems: I have read the guides and have done a lot receipts, but no luck yet. For example: after installing pavucontrol applet it simple crashes. Old receipts for xorg.conf do not work anymore.
[07:05] <kanliot> do aplay -l from terminal, which card do you want to use
[07:05] <coder2> It is a desktop based on E-350 single board.
[07:06] <coder2> kanliot: I tried aplay: it shows HDMI, analog and digital outputs. I suspect that it prefers digital out instead of analog.
[07:07] <kanliot> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshootingProcedure#Step_17
[07:07] <kanliot> you can use aplay to play directly to whichever sound card you like
[07:08] <coder2> Even more, I suspect wrong pulse configuration, but pavucontrol crashes. Next thing to do for me is trying pacmd
[07:08] <kanliot> is pulseaudio running?
[07:08] <kanliot> pgrep -l pulseaudio
[07:09] <coder2> kanliot: unfortunately I haven't found any sound file on the fresh installed system
[07:09] <coder2> kanliot: yes, pulse is running
[07:09] <kanliot> if you look at the example, the same file should exist on your system
[07:10] <kanliot> can you run pavucontrol
[07:10] <kanliot> forget about aplay
[07:10] <kanliot> and download an audio file to test with
[07:11] <jmarsden> kanliot: re autostarting a program: the askubuntu way you found seems to me to be the same as the Lubuntu FAQ way (use ~/.config/autostart).  It is not truly "at boot", but "at logon".  If that is acceptable for what the user on the forums needs, then go for it.
[07:11] <coder2> kanliot: As I've already mentioned, pavucontrol crashes immediately.
[07:12] <kanliot> thx jmarsden
[07:13] <jmarsden> kanliot: You're welcome.  Sorry for the delay I am testing Ubuntu Server PPC Beta2 ISO and disconnected LAN from this machine to connect to PPC machine being tested... :)
[07:13] <kanliot> heheh you're too kind :)
[07:13] <coder2> Ok, thanks. I'm going to try your advices tomorrow.
[07:13] <coder2> Bye.
[09:11] <kodez> greetings
[09:12] <kanliot> sup
[09:13] <kodez> how to change lubuntu permissions by default to user not root?
[09:14] <kanliot> i need more info
[09:14] <kanliot> is this a file?
[09:14] <kodez> yes
[09:15] <kanliot> i don't understand what you want to do
[09:15] <kanliot> more background info plese
[09:16] <bioterror> !chmod
[09:16] <LuvLinuxOS> hi all
[09:16] <kodez> the file permission is set to root by default and i want to change it to the user
[09:16] <kanliot> hi
[09:18] <kanliot> use pcmanfm or
[09:18] <kanliot> !chown
[09:18] <kanliot> lol
[09:18] <kanliot> same 1
[09:21] <kodez> my laptop file permission is changed to root by default, i want to reverse this to be user not for certain files
[09:23] <kanliot> liek files in /
[09:23] <kanliot> ?
[09:23] <kanliot> or files you create when you are logged in
[09:25] <kodez> when i save a web page, the file permission will be root not user and this make the page want to execute than open it with a web browser
[09:25] <kodez> or when i copy a text file, it will be recognised as an executable file rather than a text file
[09:26] <kanliot> 2 problems
[09:26] <kanliot> how are you saving pages
[09:26] <kanliot> ?
[09:42] <leszek> hi
[11:06] <Steven_> Hello is anyone there?
[11:06] <Steven_> Hello?!
[11:07] <zleap> hello
[11:07] <zleap> sorry i am 1/2 here
[11:07] <Steven_> I need some advice
[11:08] <Steven_> I love Lubuntu but openbox does not offer the ability like compiz grid
[11:08] <zleap> ok
[11:09] <Steven_> I see there is pytyle but I think it only works with the keyboard
[11:09] <Steven_> Is there anyway I can get compiz grid without compiz?
[11:10] <Steven_> I'm been at this for a few hours but no good options
[11:10] <Steven_> I've*
[11:10] <Steven_> Any ideas?
[11:12] <Steven_> Compiz is major over kill just for the grid feature
[11:14] <Steven_> So are all the people in the panel to the right logged in to this chat?
[11:15] <Steven_> WildTux can you hear me?
[11:16] <kanliot> i'm in the matrix
[11:17] <Steven_> I'm kind of confused about the nature of this chat
[11:17] <Steven_> Why are all these people logged in but not talking?
[11:17] <kanliot> donno
[11:18] <kanliot> i been here for weeks most of them havent said a word
[11:18] <Steven_> rofl
[11:18] <Steven_> Wtf lol
[11:19] <Steven_> So what you guys just log on to this chat and leave it running for weeks?
[11:20] <kanliot> yeah
[11:24] <zleap> i am on several channels so end up chatting in one place,  but yeah i have said something on occasion and got no response
[11:25] <zleap> i have no idea on the compiz stuff
[11:25] <Steven_> hmm
[11:25] <zleap> esp as lubuntu seems to bind the windows super key to the lxde menu
[11:27] <Steven_> The other window managers like awesome are nothing like Windows or Os x... I just want to drag my window to one side of the screen and have it pop to fill that half the screen
[11:27] <Steven_> You know like Windows 7 snap feature
[11:27] <zleap> hmm
[11:28] <zleap> window maker has a icon bar or something i think
[11:28] <Steven_> Tried it but could not figure out how to get it to snap...
[11:37] <zleap> ok not sure off hand,  maybe it doesn't as such
[11:37] <zleap> there is something called docky which is more like er os x
[11:37]  * zleap tends to avoid windows
[11:41] <leszek> I am a little bit confused. Are you now talking about the aero snap like feature or about dock apps ?
[11:49] <kanliot> aero snap and he left
[11:50] <zleap> i think he wanted a similar feature in what ever distro / wm hes using
[13:33] <Ahmuck> last evening i was attemtping to set my default keyboard with help from this channel and this morning i am unable to log in
[13:33] <Ahmuck> in terminal mode i can, but at the gui login prompt i cannot
[13:34] <Ahmuck> i assume this has something to do with the lxkeymap for the gui session, but i do not know how to reset it
[13:34] <Ahmuck> to default.  any help will be appreciated as I have a class in 1.5 hrs
[14:06] <Ahmuck> how do i reset my lxkeyboard map?
[14:10] <leszek> rm ~/.config/lxkeymap.conf
[14:10] <leszek> Ahmuck: but what exactly is not working ? Wront keyboard layout set somewhere or so that you cannot login or does it crash or what happens exactly ?
[14:11] <Ahmuck> won't allow me to login via gui
[14:11] <Ahmuck> in terminal mode i can
[14:11] <Ahmuck> password works fine, but it's backwards sometimes in gui mode
[14:16] <Ahmuck> how do i see a history of my commands entered into the term.  i need to see what files i may have changed
[14:18] <Ahmuck> rm: cannot remove '/home/drbeams/config/lxkeymap.conf': no such file or directory
[14:20] <Ahmuck> once it was typing the password at the password prompt from right to left
[14:21] <Ahmuck> so the password is correct, but the entry is incorrect.
[14:21] <leszek> Ahmuck: lxkeymap is not able to change the global keyboard layout
[14:21] <leszek> so it can't affect the login screen
[14:21] <Ahmuck> last evening we were working with several files and i have forgotten what those were.  i do recall thinking to myself, ug, i hope when i reboot this works
[14:22] <Ahmuck> my problem i began with last evening was setting lxkeymap through the menu and upon reboot it i would have to reset it every time
[14:22] <Ahmuck> sooo ... how would i locate my terminal history
[14:23] <leszek> type in history
[14:24] <leszek> it shows you the terminal history
[14:24] <leszek> for global keyboard layout changes in X you either edited xorg.conf in /etc/X11 or /etc/default/keyboard
[14:27] <Ahmuck> in home directory rm .* would correct this?
[14:27] <leszek> no
[14:28] <leszek> please no
[14:28] <leszek> it would destroy everything
[14:31] <Ahmuck> k, so why would it work using an xterm session (F5) but not on the login prompt?
[14:32] <leszek> Ahmuck: I really don't know what you did yesterday
[14:32] <leszek> perhaps the login prompt is setting a special keyboard layout for you
[14:33] <Ahmuck> yes, that is what i was thinking.  but i'm wondering why, and how
[14:33] <Ahmuck> and where i would go to reset it
[14:34] <leszek> Ahmuck: it must be something in /etc/lxdm I guess
[14:37] <Ahmuck> k, so resorting to emergencyh proceedures, there is a file i need for a test on this computer ... i need to move it to usb, however usb does not exist in /media or in /mnt (as is should) ... how do i access the usb (as i used to in the good ol days

[14:48] <bioterror> you add:         Option "XkbLayout" "fi"
[14:49] <Ahmuck> there was some xk something that i did modify, put us in some file
