[00:08] wxl, hey [00:08] yep, i live [00:08] :) [00:09] I wanted to thank you again [00:10] He likes you better. ;) [00:10] and Unit193 I wanted to thank you too [00:10] I am going to try puppylinux again [00:11] for some reason / flash and chromium !work together [00:11] installed FF and chrome, both *super* laggy [00:12] added repositories and updated, now I get an error in synaptic [00:12] (followed website advice) [00:12] just seems like 1) I need to learn more about linux [00:12] and I'm not really sure how to "switch drivers" etc [00:12] Normally you'd just download https://dl.google.com/linux/direct/google-chrome-stable_current_i386.deb because that package sets up it's own repo (it's not my favorite, does weird things) [00:13] (In this case, not normally) [00:13] yeah, I don't really get this.... [00:13] maybe you can help me understand [00:13] if there is software, it has dependencies [00:13] the pkgmanager takes care of these [00:13] or the package [00:13] right? [00:13] If it can, yep. [00:14] so the software is stored on various servers and is at various revisions. [00:14] so let's say package X has versions 1.13, 1.14 and 1.15 [00:14] depending on where I download, I might get a different version [00:15] anyhow, I think I need to get a book and read some [00:15] You normally wouldn't go to a website to download, you'd normally just open synaptic and install from main repos. [00:15] Alrighty. [00:15] in the meantime, for my kids who want to play minecraft / etc [00:15] I'm going to install puppy. [00:15] :) [00:18] I mean i like the *ntu [00:19] but I need something "functional" and I'll learn the OS later... === opensports is now known as solarcloud [00:55] Can someone please help me with this particular error? " 'Lubuntu 12.10 _Quantal Quetzal_ - Release amd64 (20121017.1)' [00:55] in the drive '/media/cdrom/' and press enter" === ben1u is now known as benlu === solarcloud is now known as solarcloudAFK === solarcloudAFK is now known as solarcloud === solarcloud is now known as solarcloud_AFK [06:18] Hello. I am trying to change the clock format of the clock in the lower right of the taskbar to be in 12 hour time. I don't understand the symbols in the selection boxes (e.g. "%r and %A%x), can someone help me? [06:19] The best thing to do would be to look at the manpage for strftime. [06:19] http://manpages.ubuntu.com/strftime [06:21] Thanks for the link! I remember you being very helpful before :) Can I just put those commands into the text entry field and it'll work? [06:22] Well, those time format symbols. [06:22] %a, %d %b %H:%M:%S would be an example, but not 12 hour time. [06:23] Hmm.. yeah.. [06:24] you'd think it'd be a simple check box, though I'm sure the commands give much more flexability [06:25] found it: %I [06:25] They do, but you kind of have to know what you're looking for (or randomly stumble upon it with Google) :P [06:25] You sure you don't want a more custom setup? [06:25] haha :) Thanks for your help, again, Unit [06:25] Sure thing! [06:25] what's that supposed to mean? [06:26] nevermind. [11:19] Hi is this the lubuntu help channel? [11:23] yup [11:39] Does STEAM client play nicely with AMD updated drivers? I have Amnesia -The Dark Descent === solarcloud_AFK is now known as solarcloud [16:24] how tu uninstall lubuntu === mike is now known as Guest14837 [16:24] how tu uninstall lubuntu [16:26] cant find any instructions [16:32] I would like to know how to remove lubuntu from my computer [16:39] do you have dual boot or similar? [16:40] dual boot [16:40] windows 7 [16:41] so far I found best solution to remove all packages with synaptic, but I am not sure [16:41] but you want the whole operating system gone [16:42] just lubuntu [16:42] you just reinstall the windows boot loader from windows, and then you can just delete/format the lubuntu partition(s) [16:43] i did that - i deleted lubuntu partition with gpart, but than it did not want to boot anymore [16:43] put your win 7 install media in and boot from that [16:44] i think it should have repair install option or something like that [16:44] I did boot from win recovery dics, but did not do the job [16:44] I had to reinstall lubuntu again [16:45] http://www.sevenforums.com/installation-setup/62209-remove-grub-restore-windows-7-a.html [16:47] Thank you - I will read it through and give it a try [16:47] good luck [16:48] thank you [18:31] Hi there! anyone running Liquorix kernel? [18:31] fomg-optimize: Yep, what's up? [18:32] (Not on Lubuntu, but on another one) [18:33] Unit193 excellent! Can you answer what you get when you run "cat /proc/sys/vm/dirty_background_ratio" and "cat /proc/sys/vm/dirty_ratio". trying to figure out if liquorix changed them on my machine [18:33] I have 5 and 10 [18:33] Same on a -generic kernel. [18:34] Hmmm interesting [18:34] (Liquorix one is sleeping right now.) [18:34] Seems lubuntu or ubuntu is really hating dirty cache [18:34] I wonder if they chose those settings on experience or gut feeling [18:35] THey are very off compared to standard [18:35] Unit193 thank you for answering [18:35] Now I have to figure out why [18:36] 5 and 10 for me was on the -generic kernel of Ubuntu, can check debian too. [18:36] 10/20 [18:37] That is more normal [18:38] Precise/server has 10/20 as well. [18:38] Thanks again [18:38] Sure thing. [20:23] Hello? [20:24] Anyone here? === IboS_ is now known as IboS
