hubert_hey, guys, what kind of login screen does lubuntu use?16:40
zleapnot sure as I did a install lubuntu desktop so i still ahve the one that came with ubuntu16:40
zleaphowever i think it uses the same colour scheme,  as lubuntu as in blue16:41
hubert_okay, i've made wrong question.. I am in tty now, i have installed ubuntu mini (no x), i installed lubuntu-desktop, but now i need to run it, but idk how, what command shall i use.16:42
pmatulishubert_: reboot16:52
pmatulishubert_: or try 'sudo lightdm'16:52
viniciusarqanybody there?17:02
wxlviniciusarq: nope, we're hiding.17:02
pmatulisthere are 72 people in this channel17:02
viniciusarqlol17:02
viniciusarqjust have some fun17:02
wxl17:02
viniciusarqi'm having some trouble with torrent in my lubuntu17:03
viniciusarqcould u help me?17:03
wxlno one knows if they can help you if they don't know the problem, viniciusarq17:03
wxlno need for pleasantries; just get to the point and we'll see what we can do17:04
viniciusarqsure.. sorry.. i'm having some instability in any torrent client tried17:04
viniciusarqat my other pc with win7 it's everything ok17:04
wxlyou'll need to be more specific17:04
viniciusarqi've opened my router's doors 6881-688917:05
viniciusarq"transmission" tells me that the door is open, but i'm getting only 70-80kbps17:05
viniciusarq70-80kb/s sorry17:05
viniciusarqfrom my 1200-1300 kb/s normally17:06
wxlyou use μtorrent on the win7 machine?17:07
viniciusarqyes17:07
wxlwell that's no fun17:08
wxlcan't use either on the other machine17:08
wxlbut you have tried other clients on the linux box/17:08
viniciusarqyeah17:09
viniciusarqdeluge / transmission17:09
wxlare you comparing the exact same torrent?17:09
viniciusarqyeah17:09
viniciusarqfull speed in utorrent in linux 80kb/s17:10
wxldid you check encryption, max connections, speed limits?17:10
viniciusarqencrytion and speed limits yeah let me see max connections17:10
viniciusarqnot working yet17:13
viniciusarqdo i need to open something in firewall?17:13
viniciusarqi mean firewall in lubuntu17:13
wxlif it's open it's open17:13
wxlyou can double check here http://canyouseeme.org/17:14
wxlyou should also see https://trac.transmissionbt.com/wiki/SlowSpeeds17:14
kanliottransmission has problems with upnp routers, usually you want to setup up port forwarding manuallly17:14
viniciusarqdoor 6881 open by canuseeme17:15
wxllike i said, if it's open it's open17:15
viniciusarqthat's really strange17:16
wxlso are clowns.17:16
wxlyou should head over to #transmission and see what those nice chaps say. i'd love to hear the results, viniciusarq17:18
wxlOOoOooOoOoooo i didn't realize there was a curses interface https://github.com/fagga/transmission-remote-cli17:18
redderhsI'm getting the same speeds via transmission / deluge / utorrent.17:19
wxlredderhs: across different operating systems?17:19
redderhsyup17:20
wxlthat appears to be the issue here17:20
redderhsHe could also try running utorrent via wine17:20
viniciusarqactually it seems that when i opened the doors my speed slow down a lot...17:20
redderhssee if that makes any difference.17:20
redderhshe/she17:21
wxloh17:21
wxli thought of something17:21
wxlyour isp may be throttling those ports17:21
wxlif your router supports upnp (despite what kanliot said) give that a shot. if no luck still, try some totally off the wall port number.17:21
redderhsyeah its not too good to use the torrent standardized ports from what i've read17:22
redderhsbest to use your own port number off the top of your head.17:22
wxlthat's been my experience in general17:22
wxlpersonally i've had good luck with upnp on transmission on os x but haven't used it in linux17:22
redderhsdeluge runs good on lubuntu for me. transmission is also a good client but lacks some functionality uTorrent users may have come to expect17:23
redderhsi keep both installed.17:23
wxlooh cool zenith is still floating about17:24
wxlhave you guys seen that movie?17:24
wxlsoo good17:24

wxla boy and is dog is public domain now wow17:26
* wxl moves to #lubuntu-offtopic17:26
viniciusarqi'll try utorrent for linux17:27
viniciusarqtried to turn upnp off in transmission lets see17:28
viniciusarqhey19:34
viniciusarqhas anyone experienced internet slowdown with downloads in torrent?19:35
wxlwe have people on here who have had the exact opposite problem as you have, which suggests you have a problem with yuor connection or how your using transmission or something else viniciusarq20:02
wxlanother way of putting it: this is not a lubuntu problem, per se. you may get better help from people who you can guarantee use transmission on a daily basis20:03
wxlfor that you should join #transmission20:03
wxlthere are 106 people there to help you out20:03
wxlok?20:03
zleaptransmission is a file sharing programme right ?20:04
wxlit's a p2p client, specifically in that it handles torrents20:04
zleapok20:04
viniciusarqi was going to ask if u suggest me to try changing network-manager to wicd20:13
wxli'd call that a definitive no, viniciusarq20:15
wxli wouldn't wish that on my worst enemy20:15
wxli don't care what people say, wicd sucks20:15
viniciusarqwxl, that's why i came here! tks anyway20:15
wxlviniciusarq: if you want help setting it up, i can tell you how20:15
wxlbut i don't think it will solve your problem20:15
wxland in my experience it might create some new ones20:16
vinicius_arqwxl, sorry20:18
vinicius_arqwxl, torrent you mean?20:18
wxlvinicius_arq: i don't understand your question. you asked abotu problems with torrent. i suggested #transmission. then you were wondering if wicd might help. i said no. you said that's why you came. i said i'd be happy to help you with it, but i think it will create more problems than it will solve. this is not specific to torrents, but in general.20:20
vinicius_arqwxl, i'm almost getting crazy about that i'm sorry... the most strange thing is that now i'm connected by eth and it is normal and stable, download and connection by itself20:26
wxlyou're saying your problem disappeared vinicius_arq ?20:27
vinicius_arqwxl, i'm starting to think about my router configuration...20:27
vinicius_arqwxl, connected by cable yes20:27
vinicius_arqwifi continues the same problem20:27
wxlvinicius_arq: wifi is much more inconsistent than ethernet20:27
redderhsinterference + distance can also come into play.20:28
vinicius_arqwxl, i know but if i run win7 in the same pc at the same place and distance from the router it gets full speed, and do not gets instable...20:28
wxlstill i'm not surprised20:29
vinicius_arqi think i'll have to accept that lol20:30
redderhsWhile i'm not an expert at such a resolution towards the issue, i would say it could help if you find out your specific chipset you're using for wlan and to search that on google like "chipset ubuntu" with other keywords20:31
redderhsto maybe find someone whom has the same issue you do.. that may give you a lead on some possible options20:31
vinicius_arqredderhs, i'm going to do that.. tks for all20:32
redderhsGood luck20:33

OsmodivsHello. So I was backimg up my stuff to another HDD, y selected all my files and cut them, and then paste them to the other HDD, it only paste it half of the files before running out of space, NOW, I don't have the rest of the files in my original HDD, it is as they just disapeared. How do I recover my files?22:52
redderhsOsmodivs: Hi, I too recently had a similar issue; where my file names were too long when I cut and pasted them. Since the filenames were too long they were not moved and i lost some. I brought this up in the offtopic chat and a fellow user stated but dont quote him/her, that it could be a bug.23:02
redderhsPlease wait till someone else can give you further details on the true answer to your question.23:02
redderhsFor the record, I was using 12.04 x6423:04
redderhsAlso, if it helps at all, I have been successful as a work around, using copy + paste.23:05
redderhsAlthough I have not tried this in conjunction with the issue aforementioned; I have had success in the past recovering files with Windows software on Windows 7 using recuva. The idea just popped in my mind now that possibly one of these alternative software(s) may assist you in a resolution. http://alternativeto.net/software/recuva/23:15
Osmodivsredderhs: Well, I guess i could use PhotoRec in Lubuntu...23:16
redderhsTo me, from the descriptions i've read, that sounds like a good choice23:16
Osmodivsredderhs: But the point is, this is one HELLAVA' bug, I tell you what.23:16
redderhsoh yes, i agree.23:16
redderhsimo, it shouldn't exist either, should be top on the list to get fixed asap for the author to have his/her software taken seriously.23:17
wxli'm getting in here at the end of the convo but ya'll are making bug reports and not just complaining, right? XD23:18
redderhsI'm gonna check now to see if said issue is listed as a bug report. wxl: to the pcmanfm dudes webpages or would you recommend posting in both lubuntu and pcmans pages?23:19
wxlredderhs: i think it is. there is at least something similar. i haven't watched it carefully. i would first put a bug on sourceforge and then link the trcaker there to a bug on launchpad23:20
wxlif your'e not sure there's another bug, jhust make a new one and it'll get duped when it's triaged23:20
redderhsaye captain.23:20
wxldanke23:20
OsmodivsUh... How do I report this?23:23
wxlOsmodivs: sounds like redderhs is already on it so it will simply be a matter of confirming it when he's got it up23:24
wxlif not23:24
wxl!bug23:24
ubottuIf you find a bug in Ubuntu or any of its derivatives, please file a bug using the command « ubuntu-bug <package> » - See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs for other ways to report bugs.23:24
holsteinOsmodivs: i always just do copy for that reason.. or use grsync .. its arguably a bug though23:25
holsteini do copy and delete the others after i see that they have gone23:25
OsmodivsThere is not even a Ctrl-Z option for this mistake23:26
OsmodivsNow all I am getting from PhotoRec is pictures from my browser's cache..23:27
Osmodivsoh my...23:27
holsteingrsync is an rsync gui that allows you to "try" it before you do it... im assuming it might catch those errors like that23:28
Unit193rsync has -n, --dry-run               perform a trial run with no changes made23:29
holsteinUnit193: it'll give that "out of space" warning, correct?23:30
holsteinOsmodivs:  i would say, bug or not, if thats the only copy of the data you have, and its mission critical, i wouldnt trust that to a copy/paste or a click and drag scenario23:32
wxli agree and disagree holstein23:32
Osmodivsholstein: Well, too late for the advice :(23:32
wxli think it's unsafe to assume that most people will go for the "safest" scenario but instead will do what's easiest23:32
OsmodivsI had 30GB+ of info there23:33
Osmodivsand now it is gone23:33
Unit193Tried testdisk?23:33
OsmodivsYeah, Photorec is onlly recovering files from my Browser's cahe23:34
OsmodivsIf there was only an option to search for folders23:34
holsteini dont have the skill to fix the "issue" though wxl, so i can only suggest doing arguably proper methods on the user side23:34
holsteinwxl: if you think we should fix the copy/paste or ask for it to be fixed to "crash" more elegantly, or check the space before copying... i can aggree with that23:35
Unit193holstein: Yeah, pcmanfm has no error checking.  File name incorrect for NTFS?  I'll tell you after "moving" it.23:36
holsteini remember queing up something to copy to a USB stick last week and i noticed it wasnt going to fit... i wasnt given a warning.. but i lost data like that in windows XP once, and stopped doing "move"23:36
wxlholstein: let's put it to you this way. i use rm. i don't delete. i don't send stuff to trash. i certainly prefer lower-level because i know i can trust it more. i just don't think we can expect that from the average user. and when something messes up, telling them to do something different when it's too late is like adding insult to injury :)23:37
wxlholstein: so realy you and i agree with one another. i'm just feeling bad for poor Osmodivs :)23:37
holsteinyup.. likewise23:38
holsteinwhen the exact thing happened to me, i decided not to do move anymore23:38
holsteini forget if i got the data back...23:38
wxli move a lot (in terminal). i just make sure i know what i'm doing before i hit enter23:38
OsmodivsWell, they should warn us noobs about that, I would not expect such a bad bug in such a OS23:38
wxlOsmodivs: on the other hand, where would we warn you?23:40
wxlan intelligent place would be in the release notes23:40
redderhssubmitted report23:40
wxlbut you won't necessarily find that before the problem happens23:40
wxlredderhs: where?23:40
redderhslaunchapd23:40

wxli think ti's got a week left23:47
redderhseh, ill just wait for the repo to add it.23:47
wxli'd tell you to add lubuntu-dev or lubuntu-daily repos but afaik 1.01 is quantal-only meaning you'll break crap if you try to install in precise23:48
redderhsheh, yeah, not doing that =P23:49
