| Ascavasaion | When I try to open Magnet links in chromium I get a message similar to this "Chromium needs to launch an external application to handle magnet:links......" with the button option to launch the application. If I launch that another window pops up and says "No program specified for magnet". Any help please? | 06:24 |
|---|---|---|
| wxl | Ascavasaion: if i remember correctly you can set that preference in transmission | 06:24 |
| Ascavasaion | wxl, oh. Let me check. Thought it was a browser issue. Be right back. | 06:25 |
| Ascavasaion | wxl: I see no setting like that. | 06:27 |
| wxl | one s | 06:27 |
| wxl | Ascavasaion: in general: accept magnet links: set default application (though i'll admit i'm not in front of the lubuntu box so it may be slightly different) | 06:29 |
| Ascavasaion | Okay, feeling dumb now... General? | 06:31 |
| wxl | in preferences-- one of the tabs | 06:31 |
| Ascavasaion | I checked all the dropdown menus... nothing. In Preferences the tabs are "Torrent, Downloading, Speed, Privacy, Network, Desktop, and Web" | 06:32 |
| wxl | weird | 06:33 |
| wxl | i'm gonna open my virtualbox hold on | 06:33 |
| Ascavasaion | I found a work around... | 06:34 |
| wxl | oh good | 06:34 |
| Ascavasaion | I rightclick the magnet link in the browser and Copy Link Location, I then go into transmission and Ctrl+U and it opens up. | 06:34 |
| wxl | stinky workaround :) | 06:34 |
| Ascavasaion | Yes, very stinky. | 06:35 |
| Ascavasaion | And Transmission crashed HAHA! | 06:35 |
| Ascavasaion | Aaaah, life is awesome this morning. | 06:35 |
| Ascavasaion | hehehe | 06:35 |
| Ascavasaion | Okay, reopened Transmission and torrent seems to working hehe | 06:35 |
| Ascavasaion | Thanks for the help though buddy. | 06:36 |
| wxl | well should have the virtualbox open sometime soon | 06:37 |
| wxl | had to update | 06:37 |
| wxl | yeah strange doesn't seem to be there | 06:40 |
| Ascavasaion | wxl: No problem. So long as I can get it to work some way I am happy. Have a great day and thank you once again. Bye. | 07:06 |
| searching | Openbox menu.xml how to insert color and background color ? | 13:54 |
| Osmodivs | I conected my PC via VGA to a LED 1920x1080p resolution, but now all menus fonts are tiny, is there a way to change this? I already tweaked the OpenBox manager and the "customized look and feel" but that only changes window fonts | 17:30 |
| bioterror | using VGA with a FullHD Led tv is like giving a ferrari to my wife | 17:33 |
| bioterror | but fix DPI from the xorg.conf | 17:34 |
| Osmodivs | DPI? | 17:37 |
| Osmodivs | xdpyinfo | grep -B2 resolution | 17:55 |
| Osmodivs | screen #0: | 17:55 |
| Osmodivs | dimensions: 1920x1080 pixels (871x481 millimeters) | 17:55 |
| Osmodivs | resolution: 56x57 dots per inch | 17:55 |
| Osmodivs | TINY fonts | 17:55 |
| holstein | i would change the resolution | 17:55 |
| bioterror | ofcourse you would | 17:56 |
| holstein | i would try something like arandr.. then i would go to the xorg.conf like bioterror suggests | 17:56 |
| bioterror | seems like osmodivs found his way to the arch's wiki ;) | 17:56 |
| Osmodivs | bioterror: YEAH | 17:58 |
| Osmodivs | and I dont get it... | 17:58 |
| Osmodivs | Lubuntu should comoe with a DPI settings | 17:59 |
| Osmodivs | Why not?! | 18:00 |
| holstein | Osmodivs: i would try arandr... there is a gui tool.. also an xorg.conf | 18:00 |
| holstein | Osmodivs: keep in mind, lubuntu is designed to be light... | 18:01 |
| Osmodivs | arandr does nothing, and the xorg.conf still shows my old CTR 14" monitor | 18:07 |
| Osmodivs | instead of my new LED 40" | 18:08 |
| holstein | Osmodivs: sometimes i go and run puppy linux or knoppix and grab the xorg.conf from there when i get it setup.. | 18:11 |

| Analogymous | hi, i'm wondering, is there anyone who's been having installation issues with Lubuntu 12.10? When I submit my location and come to the installation screen with introductionary guide my screen turns black | 20:26 |
| holstein | Analogymous: in all the *buntus, i dont have them download updates or anything.. i just install | 20:31 |
| holstein | not that that is the issue... | 20:31 |
| === micahg_ is now known as micahg | ||
| Analogymous | so downloading updates while installing is not recommendable? | 20:53 |
| Analogymous | I have tried installing without update installation | 20:58 |
| Analogymous | the installation freezes at the same place every time. I have tried the live cd and it works flawlessly so I don't see why the installation freezes... | 20:59 |
| holstein | Analogymous: i am personally not recommending it | 21:08 |
| holstein | Analogymous: i tried it, and it didnt work.. that was years ago, when it was first implemented | 21:09 |
| holstein | if its breaking, try not doing it | 21:09 |
| Analogymous | Ok. Well I have already had to abort the installation and thus corrupted the previous OSs, XP and Ubuntu so the computer does not boot into any OS anymore.. | 21:18 |
| Analogymous | Because the first time the screen turned black it took hours and nothing seemed to happen and I obviously had to turn it off sometime.. | 21:19 |
| Analogymous | is there any way I can install from the cd and run scripts? | 21:20 |
| Analogymous | is http://ubuntuforums.org the right forum to ask for help? | 21:22 |
| === jussi01 is now known as jussi | ||
| Analogymous | Wow. After doing some more research on installation issues of my kind I realise that my old computer isn't too bad for Lubuntu but for the graphical installer because it has less than 748mb RAM. If it's possible I would liek to help out and clarify this for other aspiring users. | 21:59 |
| Analogymous | Where can I contribute? | 22:01 |
| bennypr0fane | hello, I can't use my bluettooth headset with my desktop pc. a connection is successfully established, but sound keeps coming thruogh the speakers, nothing through the headset. | 22:35 |
| bennypr0fane | how is audio configured in Lubuntu anyway? I'm on 12.04 | 22:35 |
| Analogymous | Have you checked that the BT headset is compatible? | 22:46 |
| bennypr0fane | compatible with what? it's a sennheiser mm100 stereo. afaik all that needs to be compatible is the bt protocol, a2dp or avrcp in this case | 23:23 |
