| ascii | Well, it finally got past it, but I'm not sure what made it because I made several changes altogether: I plugged in the battery, noapic and nolapic | 00:26 |

| DarkSim | Hello :) I was thinking about trying Lubuntu, but I already have Ubuntu 12.10 installed, can I install Lubuntu without having to reinstall everything? | 12:01 |
| bioterror | sudo apt-get install lubuntu-desktop | 12:01 |
| bioterror | !purelxde | 12:01 |
| ubottu | If you want to remove all !KDE, !GNOME and !XFCE packages and have a default !Lubuntu system follow the instructions here « http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/purelxde » | 12:01 |
| DarkSim | Thank you bioterror, so do I install Lubuntu first, then remove Ubuntu? | 12:03 |
| bioterror | yes | 12:03 |
| bioterror | if find lubuntu satisfying | 12:04 |
| DarkSim | can I run Lubuntu even if I have Ubuntu still on it, so I can try it out first | 12:04 |
| DarkSim | I've tried everything now but LXDE haha, a lot of people recommended it so I thought hey | 12:04 |
| DarkSim | let's do this | 12:04 |
| bioterror | yes | 12:04 |
| bioterror | you can choose your desired session | 12:05 |
| DarkSim | Hm, command doesn't work | 12:05 |
| DarkSim | Seems to be a lot of dependencies which is the problem | 12:06 |
| DarkSim | bioterror, http://paste.ubuntu.com/1352964/ | 12:07 |
| bioterror | give that -f ;) | 12:08 |
| DarkSim | Didn't work either | 12:08 |
| DarkSim | Try apt-get -f install with no packages (or specify a solution) | 12:08 |
| bioterror | can you sudo apt-get purge libqtgui4 | 12:10 |
| DarkSim | nope | 12:10 |
| DarkSim | May be of help, I upgraded from 12.04 to 12.10 yesterday | 12:11 |
| bioterror | hmm | 12:12 |
| bioterror | sudo apt-get autoremove | 12:12 |
| bioterror | does it remove unneeded stuff? | 12:12 |
| DarkSim | 2 dependencies | 12:12 |
| DarkSim | tried -f | 12:13 |
| DarkSim | no something happened | 12:13 |
| DarkSim | now* | 12:13 |
| bioterror | it's nice when you get dependency problems :D | 12:13 |
| DarkSim | removingremovingremovingremoving | 12:14 |
| bioterror | :-) | 12:14 |
| DarkSim | Ok I might have lied earlier I haven't tried all DE's but I tried a few now :P | 12:14 |
| DarkSim | now I'm done with autoremove, so what's next, Lubuntu? | 12:14 |
| DarkSim | or update? | 12:14 |
| bioterror | try sudo apt-get install lubuntu-desktop | 12:15 |
| DarkSim | Woop woop :) | 12:15 |
| DarkSim | I need to check out a few things about changing themes though since the only reason I haven't tried LXDE yet was because all the screenshots of it was so ugly haha | 12:16 |
| * bioterror gives bad eye | 12:17 | |
| DarkSim | I'm sorry, but the internet gave me a bad image of LXDE | 12:17 |
| DarkSim | It looked like some kind of kindergarden OS to me with all those horribly bright colored buttons everywhere | 12:18 |
| DarkSim | Hopefully I am wrong | 12:18 |
| DarkSim | Which I probably am | 12:18 |
| bioterror | 11.10 looks good | 12:18 |
| bioterror | and also this 12.10 | 12:18 |
| DarkSim | Installation is done, bioterror | 12:24 |
| DarkSim | Hello again | 12:34 |
| DarkSim | Trying out and configuring LXDE right now | 12:48 |
| DarkSim | It's not as bad I thought, but it's not really a miracle either, hard to put my finger on it | 12:49 |
| bioterror | once you pop, you cant stop! | 12:49 |
| bioterror | so what's the problem? | 12:49 |
| DarkSim | Trying to make the UI a bit more hip, a bit more pop | 12:50 |
| bioterror | but it's that by default | 12:50 |
| DarkSim | If I judge things from out of the box I think Xfce still has my top score | 12:55 |
| DarkSim | since it's really easy to adjust properly | 12:55 |
| DarkSim | but I will just spend some more time in Lxde and see if I can make it work there as well | 12:55 |
| DarkSim | Since if I can then it's a win since Lxde is lighter and faster | 12:56 |
| bioterror | DarkSim, lxde + openbox is quite versatile if you are used to terminal | 13:03 |
| DarkSim | Which I am not :( | 13:03 |
| DarkSim | I don't want to rant too much in here, it's not right | 13:04 |
| DarkSim | I'll just cope with it | 13:04 |

| ToeTag | Does anyone know what specifically is different about the "MAC" .iso for Lubu? | 17:07 |
| managical | I got lubuntu on my pc and its got everything all revved up. I noticed acpid wasn't installed so I downloaded that off synaptic. I'm not sure how to manage the power settings are we still using cpu-freq? | 17:21 |
| ToeTag | managing power in regards to battery life? | 17:24 |
| ToeTag | The utility <jupiter> always receives really high accolades | 17:26 |
| ToeTag | in regards to tuning the cpy/kernel/hardware with respect to battery/AC | 17:26 |
| managical | um no I mean like power saving settings, my fans and everything are spinning full force | 17:27 |
