Micky1ho un problema con Lubuntu 12.04 x6417:57
wxlsorry we're english only here, Micky117:57
Micky1sorry I think that this was only for italian language17:57
Micky1I'll try to explain my problem in english17:58
wxlno you can try #ubuntu-it if we can't help17:58
Micky1when I log in to Lubuntu the screen become black17:58
wxlcan you get to a tty? try ctrl-alt-f1 (and ctrl-alt-f7 to get back)17:59
Micky1I'm able to access in ssh17:59
Micky1it's the same ?18:00
wxlnot necessarily18:00
wxlthough it does imply your system is working, just not the display18:00
wxlwhat graphics card do you have? you can use lspci -v to see and also find out what kernel module is being used with it18:01
Micky1the PC is not accessible because the screen is like in energy saving18:01
Micky1it's a server machine18:02
Micky1I think it's an Intel Graphic VGA board18:02
wxli need to know exactly which is why i suggested lspci -v18:02
Micky1http://pastebin.com/dKEq8x6918:04
Micky1this is the output of your command18:04
* Unit193 wonders why a server would have Lubuntu.18:05
Unit193ATI ES1000.18:05
wxlyep18:05
wxlusing radeon18:05
Micky1because I use it to virtualize with Virtualbox and Lubuntu consume less resource than Ubuntu18:06
wxlhaving trouble fiding info on this but looking18:07
Micky1sorry for my network problems18:07
Micky1do you think that could be a video card problem ?18:08
Unit193wxl: Right, so it should be using xserver-xorg-video-ati and not xserver-xorg-video-radeon right?  Know what'd happen if you'd purge the second?18:08
wxlabsolutely certain of it18:08
wxlUnit193: well, that's what i'd suspect, but you never know. seen a lot of ati issues lately18:09
Micky1no18:09
Micky1I googled before come here and I runned this command: cat .xsession-errors18:09
Micky1this is the result:18:10
Micky1http://pastebin.com/ExZPk54p18:11
phillwMicky1: try ssh -X into the server (this will allow an 'X' session to run)18:13
Micky1you mean from the server machine ?18:14
phillwssh -X onto the server18:14
Micky1(@phillw)18:15
Micky1I can't because the screen result in energy saving18:15
phillwit does not matter about the screen on the remote server, or even if it has a screen.18:16
Micky1and I'm not able to see nothing18:16
phillwwhen you are ssh'd in.18:17
phillwdo you see a output for, say, ls ?18:17
Micky1Now I attached a screen to it18:18
Micky1the problem is that if I reboot the machine the screen will power on18:18
Micky1when I make the login the screen goes in energy saving mode18:18
phillwon the machine you are ssh'ing up FROM?18:18
Micky1but until the login I'm able to see everything18:19
Micky1mouse, login GUI18:19
phillwI'm just putting ssh onto a lubuntu desktop machine, bear with me.18:22
Micky1anyone has suggestion ?18:23
phillwI don't, I ssh -X into my remote server several times a day.18:25
Unit193Micky1: This issue with Ubuntu as well?18:26
PH5hey, what software can i use to put Ubuntu on a USB drive?19:19
genii-aroundPH5: usb-creator-gtk19:24
genii-around"Startup Disk Creator"19:24
PH5can i get it from the terminal?19:25
genii-aroundYes19:30
genii-aroundPH5: eg: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install usb-creator-gtk19:30
PH5thanks i will try it now19:32
PH5it didn't work, it said " Unable to fetch some archives, maybe run apt-get update or try with --fix-missing?"19:45
holsteinPH5: run sudo apt-get update and report errors19:46
PH5Some index files failed to download, they have been ignored, or old ones used instead.19:48
holsteinPH5: i would work out your package errors19:48
PH5genii-around: any other software?19:49
holsteinPH5: sure19:49
holsteinPH5: but the issue is with your packages19:49
PH5ok19:50
holsteinyou can tyr sudo apt-get install unetbootin19:50
PH5no19:50
holsteinbut, you will likely have the same errors, since you have broken something with maybe a PPA, or a bad source19:50
holsteinPH5: no?19:50
holsteinno what?19:50
holsteinyou wont try unetbootin?19:50
holsteineither way, you'll want to troubleshoot your package issues19:51
PH5no i haven't try it yet19:51
PH5oh i see19:52
PH5i am sure firefox will give me a different result19:55
holsteinPH5: ?19:56
holsteinPH5: you mean, installing firefox?19:56
holsteinPH5: unetbootin is a tool for creating USB drives.. but that is not the issue you are having19:56
holsteinyou have a broken package system.. you can run "sudo apt-get update" and we can troubleshoot them19:56
PH5no i say i will try getting it from firefox19:57
holsteinPH5: doesnt matter where you get it from.. your system is broken19:57
PH5brb20:02
genii-aroundThey seem to have a comprehension problem.20:04

MickyHi al21:16
Mickyabout my problem of screen after the login21:16
Mickynow I'm able to connect to it with CTRL + ALT + F121:17
Mickyhow can I solve my problem from prompt ?21:17
holsteinMicky: i have no idea what you are talking about.. but i would just make a new user and test21:17
holsteinOR, you can remove parts of your /home directory related to your config21:18
holsteinif your login is normal as the other user, its safe to assume the issue is in the /home directory of your other user21:18
holsteinyou can then, remove or rename things til you get it21:18
MickyOh sorry, my problem is that I can't use my PC because after the login (with a GUI) the screen seems to go in power saving mode21:19
holsteinMicky: i would try as another user21:19
Mickyok I will try21:19
holsteinif the issue is the same as the other user, i would make a custom xorg.conf and set the vesa driver21:19
Mickyyes with another user it is able to log in21:21
holsteinMicky: so, i would just move the ~/.config to start with.. log in as the offending user and test21:22
holsteinthen, you can put back what you need.. til it breaks again... or just start over21:22
Mickycan I only rename ~/.config in i.e. ~/.config.old ?21:23
holsteinMicky: that should work fine21:24
holsteinMicky: i usually name it something without a dot and move it out of there21:24
holsteinbut thats just so i can find it21:24
Mickyok I'm tryong21:25
Mickynow it works, great !21:30
Mickythanks very much21:30
Mickyholstein21:30
holsteinMicky: cheers!21:35
morganhi22:35
morgancan somebody help me with changing the keyboard layout_22:35
morganI tried lxkeymap, but on the next reboot22:37
morganit is reset to english layout22:37
phillwhi morgan, it is known bug 1068968 that is being worked on22:39
ubottubug 1068968 in LXKeymap "LXKeymap looses saved 'options' after reboot" [Undecided,Fix committed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/106896822:39
phillwplease feel to subuscribe to that bug report as 'affects me', so that you receive updates on its progress.22:40
morgancan I set this via terminal as global_22:41
phillwreading through the bug, there does seem to be an update available... let me have a bit of a dig on where it is.... it may be a few minutes.22:43
phillwmorgan: can you check which version of lxkeymap you have installed?22:46
morganyes22:47
morganLxkeymap 0.7.9922:47
phillwmorgan: there seems to be an update available from the lubuntu devs, if you'd like to try it out?22:50
phillwmorgan: how would you describe your understanding of using terminal for such things as apt-get?22:53
morganhow should I install this version_ if I can change the the language via terminal on global settings it would be enough22:55
morganI tried sudo dpkg-reconfigure keyboard-configuration22:55
morganbut nothing changed22:56
phillwyou will need to temporarily enable the dev area to get the latest version.22:58
phillwmorgan: the background for doing this is at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Lubuntu/Testing/PPA_Testing but I'm more than happy to talk you though it once you have understood the general idea.22:59
morgan 23:45
morganphillw which ppa link I need to add? I can not see the link for LXKeymap23:46
phillwmorgan: you need to head over to https://launchpad.net/~lubuntu-dev/+archive/staging (Do not worry about the warnings on that wiki page, our dev staging area is safe!).23:48
morganI add the ppa and updated the repo23:53
morganbut there is no newer version23:53
phillwmorgan: I suggest you raise a new bug (ubuntu-bug lxkeymap) and include the comment pointing it back to bug 106896823:55
ubottubug 1068968 in LXKeymap "LXKeymap looses saved 'options' after reboot" [Undecided,Fix committed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/106896823:55
phillwLey me know the new bug number and I'll give a gentle 'dig' to the team to ask if any progress has been made.23:56
phillws/Ley/Let23:56
phillwinclude that you have used the staging ppa and the problem still exists.23:57
phillwmorgan: cancel that!23:58
phillwI mis read the bug status, it is fix-commited, not fix-released.23:58
phillwlog onto https://launchpad.net/bugs/1068968 then click affects me, then in comments add that you have tried the lxkeymap from ~staging.23:59
