IronWaffleHey. What's the fastest speed a live CD should be written?05:25
cdoublejjIronWaffle 8x05:29
cdoublejjthat is on the safe side05:29
IronWaffleWeird, I did that and still got a corrupted sector05:30
IronWaffleI'll try 4x05:30
IronWaffleJust to be even more safe05:30
cdoublejjif you still get corruption my next would be a drive cleaner disc or use a different drive05:30
IronWaffleOnly have 1 burner, and it's 6 years old. I should probably clean the laser05:31
cdoublejjI was debating to say 4x actually.  the reason is my Nintendo wii set to play home made back up discs and they ONLY work if burned at 4x.05:31
cdoublejjwait... well err never mind kind of but, if it matters you can request free discs to be mailed to you. or if possible install from usb drive05:32
IronWaffleIt's a dell 2400, USB out of mind. And I have 1 last CD so I'll give it a whack05:32
IronWaffleAlso I have my wii set up, so you just gave me a tip of burning my backups05:33
IronWaffleI tried Xubuntu at 8x before this one and it gave me an error at the same place lubuntu gave me it, so more likely than not burning too fast05:35
cdoublejjyeah they are supposed to be burned at 4x and the wii only like certain blanks discs brands05:36
cdoublejjever since the wii i just burn every thing at 4x05:36
IronWaffleWait... What brands?05:37
cdoublejjPMed you also the best for the wii by type it dvd-r05:38
cdoublejjdash r05:38
IronWaffleI just bought a 50-pack of Titan ones this morning -_-05:40
IronWaffle*sigh* hopefully they'll work05:40
IronWaffleThanks cdoublejj05:40
cdoublejjnp :D05:40
IronWaffleI tried making it at 2x but it did it at 4 for some reason, either way out came a perfect disc05:54
IronWafflethere's our answer. Live CDs must be made at 4x05:54
cdoublejjsometimes the drives can't match/do the all of the listed speeds. you owuld need a first generation {super old first of it's kind} cd burner to do 2x05:58
IronWaffleAhh ok06:01
fomg-optimizeHi there! FIrst off I want to give a big thanks to everyone working with Lubuntu! Great work! Loving it!08:23
fomg-optimizeNow, to get to a point. How come Chromium is the default browser rather than for example FIrefox? Tests with newer versions of Chrome against Firefoxs seems to pretty much always show Firefox using less ram and pcu for the same number of tabs? Not to mention all the add-ons available to FIrefox08:25
Unit193There are many reasons to go for browser X, and that is one that is hit on all the time as well.  xxxterm is actually more lightweight than either of those, but not quite as easy to use.08:27
fomg-optimizeTHis could be seen as one example08:27
fomg-optimizehttp://www.ghacks.net/2012/06/21/chrome-uses-way-more-memory-than-firefox-opera-or-internet-explorer/08:27
fomg-optimizeVery true08:27
Unit193In the end, user will install whatever the user wants.08:27
fomg-optimizeYes, I do :)08:27
fomg-optimizeBut what reasons other than lightness are behindchoosing Chromium?08:28
fomg-optimizeI'm just curious08:28
fomg-optimizeDo not intend to flame08:28
Unit193I don't remember.  I'd guess it was seen to be lighter at the time.08:29
fomg-optimizeThanks for xxxterm by the way, missed that one08:29
Unit193Vim like.08:30
djazzhow can i remove chromium, and use chrome only? if i try remove chromium it automatically install FF08:30
djazzand then Midori, Konqeror, Epiphany08:30
Unit193djazz: Ah, that one.... Add firefox in the name to remove as well, which will pull up another browser to add to the list, as you noted.08:30
djazzwhen i click a link in skype for example, it opens in both chromium and chrome. why?08:31
Unit193Skype is it's own little cookie, but it should be calling either exo-open, or sensible-browser.  I think the latter.08:32
cdoublejjhhhmm opera might not be a bad option/choice for Lubuntu maybe the installer for lubununtu could ask you what you want08:37
cdoublejjmakes me wanna try lubuntu with opera on my old laptop08:37
Unit193But then it could ask what email client you want, and what IM if any, or what office software be it LibreOffice, OpenOffice, or gnome-office (abi, gnumeric.)08:38

RoboTamerHi, looking for a lubuntu guru, any body?09:06
RoboTamerOkay, page me when you get this. I am looking for a way to NOT start x at startup, like to started manually when needed. Can't find an service scripts, or anything in /etc/default  How do I do this?09:08
Unit193Shouldn't something like sudo update-rc.d -f lightdm remove   just about do it?09:10
RoboTamerNo lightdm just removes the login09:10
RoboTamerX still starts09:11
RoboTamerBesides it's insserv -r  now not update-rc09:12
LuvLinuxOShttp://askubuntu.com/questions/148717/how-do-i-boot-into-the-console-and-then-launch-the-ubuntu-desktop-from-it09:13
Unit193Meh, it works.  Just put "text" as part of the grub cmdline in /etc/default/grub09:13
LuvLinuxOSHope this helps09:14
RoboTamerI'll check it out, thanks09:14
LuvLinuxOSwelcome09:15
RoboTamerTotally forgot that's for ubuntu, lubuntu doesn't have grub09:18
Unit193Then you installed differently.09:18
RoboTamerI guess I used an image for the MiniPC09:21
LuvLinuxOSLubuntu do have grub!!! look in /boot/grub folder of the cli...09:29
LuvLinuxOShttp://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=9644518#post964451809:32
LuvLinuxOScheck this out!!!09:32
RoboTamerNot mine, I am running the miniand version https://www.miniand.com/forums/forums/development/topics/install-ubuntu-linux-12-04-now-including-droidmote09:37
RoboTamerThere is nothing in the boot folder09:37
RoboTamerLuvLinuxOS: Got no grub, could use run levels maybe. I will check that out09:41
head_victimRoboTamer: if you aren't using grub you haven't used anything remotely like a normal L/Ubuntu install09:42
Unit193You'd have to ask their support group, have no idea what they may have done to it.09:42
head_victimRoboTamer: now that I actually read you're link I concur with Unit193, this is not a Lubuntu question but a miniand tech question. Unfortunately it appears they do things a lot different to normal so no one here is likely to know the answer to your question.09:43
RoboTamerThanks head_victim and sorry09:45
Unit193Wait, are they even using upstart?09:45
head_victimRoboTamer: don't be sorry :) When you're not using the default installs it's usually best to state this at the start of asking for help so helpers can best direct your questions :)09:45
RoboTamerOkay,09:46
RoboTamerDon't know what upstart is Unit19309:46
LuvLinuxOSRoboTame: Then install grub09:46
RoboTamerAnd runlevels aren't going to work, since there is no init script09:47
Unit193!upstart09:47
ubottuUpstart is meant to replace the old Sys V Init system with an event-driven init model.  For more information please see: http://upstart.ubuntu.com/09:47
RoboTamerI don't think that will work. I don't think grub can start this machine09:47
head_victimLuvLinuxOS: they're using a special third party adaption of Lubuntu for a specific model of android pc09:47
LuvLinuxOSlook I have been testing lubuntu 12.10 on a 12.04 system... grub installs.09:49
LuvLinuxOSWith a clean install the folders are present but do not load.09:50
RoboTamerWhere are you installing09:50
LuvLinuxOSThat mean that you can load grub in the master boot record and point to the boot images or partitions in windows case09:51
LuvLinuxOS/boot/grub09:51
LuvLinuxOScheck that folder out then google "install grub lubuntu"09:51
RoboTamerI mean, I am running this on little Android computer, not even 386 based09:51
LuvLinuxOSa tablet09:52
LuvLinuxOS?09:52
RoboTamerNo am minipc MK802 or something09:52
RoboTamerHere is the info https://www.miniand.com/forums/forums/development/topics/install-ubuntu-linux-12-04-now-including-droidmote09:52
LuvLinuxOScan you access the cli09:52
RoboTamerYes09:53
RoboTamerOkay I am taking this their forum, which I should have done anyway. Thanks everybody.09:54
