| wallynuts | hello I'm a bit of noob still and my computer just stopped booting after I took the battery out while it was sleeping. Now it hangs during startup, right after starting NPT server. it does give the ok at the end of the line - so I think that is ok. I can get a term on another TTY and I can startx on vt8. If any one as some help or advice it would be great | 05:16 |
|---|---|---|
| bioterror | wallynuts, if you can log into to a tty, I would suggest to examine Xorg.0.log | 05:20 |
| wallynuts | nothing in Xorg.0.log is jumping out at me but I'm not sure what i'm looking for | 05:31 |
| bioterror | errors | 05:31 |
| wallynuts | They would be marked EE right? if so I don't have any in the log file, but I did startX on another tty | 05:37 |
| bioterror | yes, should be EE | 05:54 |
| wallynuts | It doesn't seem to be an X problem I can load X | 06:02 |
| _mak | There is a way to add more than 1 timezone to the default clock? | 10:06 |
| _mak | The suggestion given in https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Lubuntu/Documentation/CustomizingTheClock does not fit me.. | 10:07 |
| Cliperex | please help. lubntu 12.10 , laptop nc6220 usb sockets stoped working. all of them. at first pen drives used to be recogniesd for a minute then disapeared, then not shown at all , now even usb mouse is not identified. | 12:38 |
| Cliperex | soory 12.04 | 12:39 |
| Cliperex | not 120.10 | 12:39 |
| Cliperex | not 12.10 | 12:39 |
| Cliperex | i googled this for a few hours , tried few sugestions , bit i need some one who know his way around this thing | 12:40 |
| Cliperex | anything ? | 12:44 |
| Cliperex | sorry for the spelling. its there a utility or command that reset thre usb connections some how ? | 12:45 |
| Cliperex | soi am a linux rookie *kill me now * :-) but i need somthing , g i v e m e s o m e t h i n g | 12:48 |
| bioterror | reboot and if it doesnt get fixed, hit your laptopt against corner of the table | 12:54 |
| Cliperex | reboot doesnt work. | 12:55 |
| Cliperex | yea it an old laptop but i need it to work | 12:55 |
| pmatulis | Cliperex: you might have m/b trouble | 12:55 |
| bioterror | are you 100% sure it's not hardware related? | 12:56 |
| bioterror | must be close to 6 to 7 years old laptop? | 12:57 |
| Cliperex | no i am not sure . it an onld machine , ofcourse somthing could be wrong with it. but why dont i get an error note of any kind ? | 12:57 |
| pmatulis | Cliperex: and it was working fine or it never worked fine (with 12.04)? | 12:57 |
| holstein | i agree with the hardware suggestion... i would try a few live CD's real quick, then you can at least no that its not lubuntu | 12:59 |
| Cliperex | fresh install just two days before. everything is fine besides heat. usualy around 60 degrees celsiuse but on rest about 50. can go around 90-100 very bussy ( clean fan - new heatsing compound. i saw on some forum it coulld be power timeout for the usb pen drive to stop working. how can i disable power down for usb sockets | 13:05 |
| holstein | Cliperex: i would try a live CD or 2... i nor most other folks i know of need to set that on a lubuntu system | 13:06 |
| Cliperex | in windows i can enable/diable usb sockets/hub in the control panel. is there an aequivalnet thing on ubuntu/lubuntu ? i will cosider live cd | 13:08 |
| holstein | Cliperex: if the vendor has written such a thing for linux, the lubuntu will support it | 13:08 |
| pmatulis | Cliperex: finally, check your kernel logs (/var/log/kern.log) | 13:13 |
| pmatulis | when you lose your usb ports | 13:14 |
| pmatulis | jude0: no, i'm not talking to you | 13:36 |
| Cliperex | <pmatulis> thankyou. you are thekning. " hub 1-0:1.0: over-current condition on port 2. uhci hcd 0000:00:1d.0: HC died; cleanup | 13:41 |
| Cliperex | i steal have shortcut somwhere i dont know where | 13:42 |
| Cliperex | still | 13:43 |
| holstein | if it were my box, i would make sure all upgrade were applied... i would try and troubleshoot and rule out hardware issues.. i would try different kernels (with different drivers) in case its a hardware support issue.. i typically find live CD's the easiest/quickest way to do that | 13:47 |
| holstein | if i had a USB "hub" plugged in, i would remove that... i would try with just the usb mouse.. use it, test... then test a few sticks. | 13:48 |
| Cliperex | no usb devices connected at all. the shortcut is inside the laptop. i need to disconnect the socket somhow | 13:50 |
| holstein | Cliperex: i wouldnt worry much about messages if all is working.. i would test a usb device.. the mouse | 13:51 |
| Cliperex | all is Not working. Usb devices are dead/ | 13:55 |
| holstein | Cliperex: we can assume the devices are fine.. the question is, is the usb hardware on the machine bad? or is it hardware support in the kernel that is lacking | 13:56 |
| Cliperex | but now i have the log to sea so i can get feedback, wich is somthing, which is what i needed/ | 13:56 |
| Cliperex | its an old machine with reletive new kernel. the chances are , device fales/ | 13:57 |
| holstein | Cliperex: maybe try a live cd based on ubuntu 10.04... something more of that "era" | 13:58 |
| Cliperex | thnks all, will test. bbl | 13:58 |
| Osmodivs | Hello. Is there a way to change my location in Lubuntu so it knows I am in my town and NOT in New York? | 15:17 |
| Osmodivs | Hello. Is there a way to change my location in Lubuntu so it knows I am in my town and NOT in New York? | 15:34 |
| Unit193 | That is generally only used for time, doesn't matter if it is technically where you live. | 15:36 |
| Unit193 | (I don't like there either, but that is our TZ city) | 15:36 |
| Osmodivs | Well, I am -1 hour from New York | 15:37 |
| Unit193 | In that case, sudo dpkg-reconfigure tzdata | 15:47 |
| kanliot | <Unit193> In that case, sudo dpkg-reconfigure tzdata | 16:02 |
| kanliot | gonna add that to the wiki | 16:02 |
| Unit193 | kanliot: May be some sort of GUI way, but don't know it (or need to) | 16:06 |
| fluitfries | hi all | 16:42 |
| fluitfries | is there a way to set windows "sticky" to their workspace, such that when i use the window switcher from my taskbar, it moves my view to that window's workspace? | 16:44 |
| IboS | hello | 16:50 |
| kanliot | hi | 16:52 |
| kanliot | fluitfries, it sounds like you want lxpanel to control workspaces | 16:53 |
| IboS | how do i add a program at startup ? | 16:53 |
| fluitfries | yea, that sounds right. is there a setting in lxpanel for that? | 16:55 |
| kanliot | https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Lubuntu/Boot_Install_Login#How_I_can_autostart_a_program_when_logging_into_Desktop | 16:55 |
| kanliot | you might be able to tell openbox to change workspaces when you activate a window | 16:56 |
| kanliot | but i'm not sure theres a better way | 16:56 |
| fluitfries | looked in my taskbar settings and the panel settings but didn't see anything | 16:57 |
| wxl | hey ya'll where is the config file that lxsession-edit works with? | 16:57 |
| fluitfries | i'll check openbox settings | 16:57 |
| kanliot | wxl you might have to look at the source code | 16:59 |
| wxl | blah | 16:59 |
| fluitfries | nothing there either | 16:59 |
| fluitfries | hmmm | 16:59 |
| kanliot | try the openbox wiki | 16:59 |
| IboS | kanliot: what if my programm is a command line ? | 17:00 |
| fluitfries | wait, is lxpanel default or do i need to add it? | 17:01 |
| kanliot | https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Lubuntu/Boot_Install_Login#Alternative_method | 17:02 |
| kanliot | it's the bottom panel, lxpanel | 17:02 |
| IboS | kanliot: can i add a .desktop file for conky ? | 17:04 |
| IboS | sorry for all these questions :) | 17:05 |
| kanliot | i would do the alternative method, a bit quicker for me | 17:06 |
| kanliot | and also grab a conky config for lubuntu | 17:06 |
| kanliot | and np with all the questions this is the channel 4 it | 17:06 |
| IboS | then i should add conky -d to my autostart file | 17:08 |
| kanliot | http://fauzimh.wordpress.com/2012/02/22/lubuntu-little-tweaks-1/ | 17:08 |
| kanliot | try that config let me know if it works | 17:08 |
| bioterror | what the heck is this Boot Install Login | 17:12 |
| kanliot | i moved stuff off the Guides page into categorized pages | 17:13 |
| IboS | thanks kanliot | 17:15 |
| IboS | it works | 17:15 |
| IboS | i used the alternative method | 17:15 |
| fluitfries | seems like maybe tint2 as a replacement for lxpanel, will do what i want with the windows... but i hate to deviate much from stock ubuntu | 17:16 |
| fluitfries | also i know i can hand-code the window behavior to specific workspaces, but that's not what i'm seeking either. | 17:16 |
| fluitfries | stock *lubuntu | 17:17 |
| fluitfries | well, one setting i wanted on was "show windows from all desktops" in the taskbar's settings. | 17:26 |
| fluitfries | lol, ok that's the official solution. | 17:34 |
| fluitfries | kanliot, you were right after all. turning on the above setting moves you to the workspace where you've assigned that window when you click it from lxpanel. thanks for the help. :) | 17:35 |
| fluitfries | my next question is: does lubuntu ship with anything to record a screen capture by default? | 17:37 |
| fluitfries | a video. | 17:37 |
| kanliot | try recordmydesktop or kazam | 17:40 |
| fluitfries | k tks | 17:55 |
| fluitfries | lol, kazam crashes can't connect to pulse audio server | 17:59 |
| kanliot | damn | 18:00 |
| fluitfries | also listed in lubuntu software center so i'd hope it would work, i'll keep messin | 18:01 |
| coder27 | Hello. I've just installed lubuntu 12.04. The system is equipped with NVidia card and it is connected to the HD TV. Fonts are unreadable. xdpyinfo says the DPI is 54x54. Xorg.conf is almost empty. Please help | 18:02 |
| cristian_c | Hi | 18:04 |

| cristian_c | but I don't find it :( | 18:04 |
| cristian_c | Do you know something? :) | 18:05 |
| kanliot | fluitfries, please confirm this bug 1064575 | 18:05 |

| kanliot | yeah now we wait a few months for a fix | 18:16 |
| fluitfries | whee | 18:16 |
| kanliot | did you try recordmydesktop | 18:17 |
| kanliot | pretty easy to use from command line | 18:18 |
| fluitfries | nah, i gave up. the whim has passed. :) | 18:22 |
| kanliot | ya | 18:23 |
