| morgan | ok, it takes some time | 00:01 |
|---|---|---|
| morgan | how can I change the global keyboard settings via terminal? | 00:03 |
| phillw | morgan: sorry for my mis reading of the bug status, i've been following a couple tonight. | 00:03 |
| phillw | morgan: whilst not exactly what you may want, have a read of http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1455877 it details what needs doing in the 'master' file to get the machine to remember settings. | 00:07 |
| morgan | the lazout everzwhere is wrong, bootscreen terminals in F1,F2... and the whole x session | 00:13 |
| morgan | setxkbmap is also reset on reboot | 00:14 |
| phillw | morgan: so, /etc/default/keyboard is reset? | 00:15 |
| phillw | that really should not happen | 00:15 |
| morgan | /etc/default/keyboard does not exist | 00:16 |
| morgan | I thought this file is gone since a few releases_ | 00:16 |
| phillw | morgan: try creating it. | 00:17 |
| phillw | the 'X' files do not exist by default but need creating, I'm hoping that this is a similar case. | 00:17 |
| phillw | It would be a lot easier if there someone around who has a dual language keyboard setting so they could tell you what they did. I only use en-gb :( | 00:19 |
| phillw | wxl: Unit193 do you use dual language on your keyboards? | 00:21 |
| Unit193 | Hah, nope. | 00:21 |
| wxl | phillw: yeah i use english and haxor | 00:22 |
| * wxl prepares to be slapped | 00:22 | |
| morgan | ok, I make a reboot | 00:24 |
| morgan | ok, couldn't login anymore, this is a good sign :) | 00:27 |
| phillw | morgan: you would be better asking on the mailing list, on there will be people who use dual languages. https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/lubuntu-users | 00:28 |
| morgan | on x it is changed correctly | 00:28 |
| morgan | but not on the Fx terminals | 00:29 |
| phillw | morgan: that will be the defaults for the terminal, which is different to 'X'. have a read of http://askubuntu.com/questions/133318/how-do-i-change-the-language-via-a-terminal which will tell the terminal session the language you want to use. | 00:31 |
| morgan | $ cat .pam_environment | 00:35 |
| morgan | LANGUAGE=de_DE:en | 00:35 |
| morgan | LANG=de_DE.UTF-8 | 00:35 |
| wxl | is that a yay? :) | 00:36 |
| morgan | "LANGUAGE=de_DE:en" this is wrong? | 00:36 |
| morgan | LANGUAGE=de_DE:de ?? | 00:36 |
| phillw | wxl: you are familiar with german? | 00:41 |
| morgan | I changed .pam_environment and locale but it does not change | 00:42 |
| morgan | the layout | 00:42 |
| phillw | morgan: I'm sorry, I really am not used to dual language. | 00:46 |
| phillw | you should get more people who use dual language stuff on #ubuntu-beginners else please do ask on the lubuntu mailing list. | 00:47 |
| phillw | morgan: the last work I know of was https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Lubuntu/Documentation/LanguageSupport | 00:49 |
| wxl | phillw: ich bin ein auslander | 00:54 |
| wxl | what's LC_ALL morgan ? | 00:57 |
| wxl | prolly null i bet | 00:57 |
| wxl | of course i don't think that's your problem | 01:01 |
| morgan | yes | 01:02 |
| wxl | so where are you seeing that it's not working? is it working anywhere? | 01:03 |
| morgan | it is not working on the F1,F2 terminals, after changing /etc/default/keyboard the layout on x is correct | 01:06 |
| morgan | LC_ALL is not set | 01:06 |
| wxl | so regardless of what .pam_environment says, what do your terminals think the value of LANGUAGE and LANG are? | 01:06 |
| morgan | is I check with locale the lang config is on "de_DE.UTF-8" | 01:08 |
| morgan | seems to be correct | 01:09 |
| wxl | so that is in the terminal? | 01:09 |
| wxl | i.e. with "echo $LANG" | 01:09 |
| wxl | and what is LANGUAGE set to? | 01:09 |
| morgan | $ echo $LANGUAGE | 01:10 |
| morgan | de_DE:de | 01:10 |
| wxl | and LANG? | 01:10 |
| morgan | $ echo $LANG | 01:10 |
| morgan | de_DE.UTF-8 | 01:10 |
| wxl | interesting | 01:10 |
| wxl | i'd expect that to work | 01:10 |
| morgan | hm... next try tomorrow - thanks! :D | 01:15 |
| wxl | sorry morgan :( | 01:15 |
| Rarrikins | Is there an easy way to scale the CPU based on its temperature? | 12:20 |
| _Ethan_ | hi, i would like to ask something. Is it supposed that all the things i can do with ubuntu can be done with lubuntu ? | 13:11 |
| _Ethan_ | i mean, is the kernel and all the stuff the same ? | 13:11 |
| _Ethan_ | im asking this because i just want to know if i install gnuradio for example it will work fine | 13:11 |
| Rarrikins | _Ethan_: You can test by getting a live CD, getting gnuradio, and testing it. That way you don't have to change anything on your system. | 13:23 |
| _Ethan_ | yes | 13:33 |
| _Ethan_ | but in general | 13:33 |
| _Ethan_ | is lubuntu just ubuntu with a lighter graphical interface ? | 13:33 |
| _Ethan_ | or are there some features changed in the kernel for lower computers? | 13:33 |
| Rarrikins | No, it's the same kernel-wise. | 13:33 |
| Rarrikins | Uses apt-get as well. | 13:34 |
| Rarrikins | Same package repositories and everything. | 13:34 |
| _Ethan_ | so, can you tell me the difference ? i mean, i could download ubuntu and then change to lxde | 13:35 |
| _Ethan_ | and i would have "almost" the same ? | 13:35 |
| _Ethan_ | with different programs installed, am i right ? | 13:35 |
| Rarrikins | I'm not completely sure, but from what I understand, it's just a different selection of packages, so that if you changed the packages on basic Ubuntu and switched your window manager, it would be the same. | 13:37 |
| _Ethan_ | ok | 13:38 |
| _Ethan_ | thanks | 13:38 |
| Rarrikins | No problem. | 13:38 |
| _Ethan_ | btw im amazingly surprised how it works in my old toshiba satellite A50 | 13:38 |
| Rarrikins | Yeah, it's pretty nice :D I'm using it on an old Vaio, and aside from setting up a temperature throttling script because the fans are dead, it works very nicely. | 13:40 |
| _Ethan_ | :D | 13:40 |
