| mungbean | what's going on with tomby+ubuntu one? did tomboy add the functionality required yet? | 11:51 |
| popey | not heard anything | 11:55 |
| redtape-renegade | Just so I know ( on the awesome scale ) .. How Awesome are modern Xeon processors for a new Ubuntu desktop system ?? | 12:34 |
| dwatkins | this awesome [ ] | 12:50 |

| dwatkins | yesh | 12:58 |
| redtape-renegade | I dont know how to get rid of a bad libreoffice install on Lubuntu 12.10 .. Here's the pastebin | http://paste.ubuntu.com/5567581/ | 13:14 |
| redtape-renegade | How do I get rid of Libreoffice ?? Also sioftware centre doesn't open anymore .. When is Ubuntu 13.04 coming out so I can Upgrade ?? | 13:15 |
| popey | redtape-renegade: sudo apt-get install libreoffice-base-core --reinstall | 13:16 |
| redtape-renegade | thanx | 13:16 |
| redtape-renegade | yeah I get exactly the same result :( | 13:16 |
| redtape-renegade | do you want me to pastebin the result ? Siorry I know this is a bit much too ask .. :( | 13:17 |
| popey | redtape-renegade: apt-cache policy libreoffice-base-core | 13:17 |
| redtape-renegade | ok .. | 13:17 |
| redtape-renegade | http://paste.ubuntu.com/5567593/ no luck .. I think this is something that I cant fix, though... | 13:19 |
| popey | redtape-renegade: pastebin the contents of /etc/apt/sources.list please | 13:19 |
| redtape-renegade | ok | 13:19 |
| mungbean | been checking the mailing lists for tomboy | 13:28 |
| mungbean | not much progress. | 13:28 |
| mungbean | big shame | 13:28 |
| popey | not surprised | 13:28 |
| mungbean | tomboy+u1 sync was one of my favourite apps | 13:31 |
| popey | ditto | 13:31 |
| ali1234 | you can't really blame them | 13:31 |
| redtape-renegade | http://paste.ubuntu.com/5567612/ Sorry if my pastebining is not up-to to scratch .. | 13:31 |
| ali1234 | u1 seems to be permanent beta | 13:31 |
| mungbean | i guess i don't need mono anymore then | 13:31 |
| popey | redtape-renegade: thats not what I was after | 13:32 |
| popey | redtape-renegade: the file /etc/apt/sources.list, not the contents of files in /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ | 13:32 |
| redtape-renegade | oh sorry .. how do I do it then ? | 13:32 |
| popey | gedit /etc/apt/sources.list | 13:32 |
| popey | and then paste that into paste.ubuntu.com | 13:33 |
| popey | or if you have pastebinit installed "pastebinit /etc/apt/sources.list | 13:33 |
| redtape-renegade | ok | 13:33 |
| mungbean | any opinions on this as a soplution? http://askubuntu.com/questions/51095/how-can-i-sync-gnote-notes | 13:33 |
| redtape-renegade | popey, It wont let me even install gedit ?? .. I think my system is foobar .. | 13:34 |
| popey | no no, sorry.. | 13:35 |
| popey | i assumed you had gedit, but you're lubuntu, hang on | 13:35 |
| popey | just open a terminal and "cat /etc/apt/sources.list" | 13:35 |
| popey | then select it all and paste it into paste.ubuntu.com | 13:35 |
| sagaci | leafpad | 13:35 |
| redtape-renegade | ok got it hangon.. | 13:36 |
| popey | sagaci: thanks | 13:37 |
| redtape-renegade | http://paste.ubuntu.com/5567632/ Thanx. | 13:37 |
| popey | you upgraded to raring? | 13:40 |
| redtape-renegade | have I ? | 13:40 |
| popey | well you have raring in your sources.list | 13:41 |
| redtape-renegade | how do i check ? | 13:41 |
| popey | lsb_release -a | 13:41 |
| redtape-renegade | ok hangon.. | 13:41 |
| redtape-renegade | says 12./10 .. do you want another pastebin of that ? | 13:42 |
| redtape-renegade | **12.10 | 13:42 |
| popey | ok, so you probably want to fix your /etc/apt/sources.list | 13:43 |
| popey | sudo leafpad /etc/apt/sources.list | 13:43 |
| popey | and change references to raring back to quantal | 13:43 |
| popey | and then "sudo apt-get update" "sudo apt-get upgrade" | 13:44 |
| redtape-renegade | http://paste.ubuntu.com/5567641/ | 13:44 |
| popey | which should get you back on track | 13:44 |
| redtape-renegade | ok will do thank-you popey ... | 13:44 |
| DJones | popey: Does raring give a 13.04 result for lsb_release -a ? When I looked at a 13.04 install in a vm, it showed 12.10 as did About Ubuntu | 13:45 |
| popey | Release:13.04 | 13:45 |
| popey | it did early on | 13:45 |
| popey | not now | 13:45 |
| brobostigon | that was funny, on the local bbc news, the monster raving loony party, eastleigh candidate was shown, i couldnt help but laugh. | 13:45 |
| DJones | That explains it | 13:45 |
| ali1234 | popey: do you have /opt/qt5 ? | 13:47 |
| * redtape-renegade is in too deep .. & cant see the woods for the trees with " sudo leafpad /etc/apt/sources.list " then change all the references to " quantal " .. I think I'll just die quietly now .. | 13:47 | |
| popey | ali1234: yes | 13:47 |
| popey | redtape-renegade: search and replace, most editors have that | 13:47 |
| ali1234 | hmm. for me, qmlscene segfaults unless i move /opt/qt5 somewhere else | 13:47 |
| redtape-renegade | oh ok .. thanx.. | 13:48 |
| popey | erk | 13:48 |
| ali1234 | but it only segfaults when using Ubuntu.Components | 13:48 |
| ali1234 | i'm gooing to reinstall :( | 13:49 |
| ali1234 | was hoping to wait until raring is released but oh well | 13:49 |
| popey | oh, full OS reinstall? | 13:50 |
| popey | erk | 13:50 |
| ali1234 | yes | 13:50 |
| ali1234 | no other choice | 13:50 |
| ali1234 | PPAs have ruined my system | 13:50 |
| popey | i try to avoid that by purging PPAs and reinstalling base packages | 13:50 |
| ali1234 | i did purge them | 13:50 |
| popey | sudo apt-get install package/raring | 13:50 |
| ali1234 | it didn't help | 13:50 |
| popey | etc | 13:50 |
| popey | so it downgrades things | 13:50 |
| ali1234 | apt-get wants me to autoremove nvidia-common | 13:51 |
| redtape-renegade | ok seems to have worked .. thanx popey .. I'm rebooting ... | 14:00 |
| bigcalm | cx | 14:02 |
| bigcalm | Thanks kittah | 14:03 |
| davmor2 | bigcalm: hahahahaha that's a cat saying "I am the cat you're looking for........Fuss me............Fuss Me now........................You may go about your business move along......move along" | 14:05 |
| bigcalm | davmor2: pretty much | 14:05 |
| popey | my cats have left the room ☹ | 14:05 |
| bigcalm | Mine has just upped and left due to lack of pettings | 14:06 |
| davmor2 | popey: it a hint to stop eating sprouts ;) | 14:06 |
| bigcalm | Thunderbird isn't remembering window size or location upon restart. Is there a fix for that? | 14:09 |
| popey | not that I'm aware of | 14:10 |
| davmor2 | bigcalm: restart of the machine or restart of Thunderbird | 14:10 |
| bigcalm | davmor2: restart of Thunderbird | 14:10 |
| bigcalm | So restart of machine as well :) | 14:10 |
| bigcalm | I don't mind so much about location, it's more the size that's bugging me | 14:11 |
| brobostigon | is there something like pastebin, but for images insted ? | 14:11 |
| brobostigon | pastebinit, i mean. | 14:12 |
| ali1234 | sadly, no | 14:12 |
| brobostigon | ok, ohwell. | 14:12 |
| popey | yes there is | 14:13 |
| ali1234 | shutter can do it from a gui | 14:13 |
| * popey tries to remember what it's called | 14:13 | |
| ali1234 | but that kind of defeats the purpose | 14:13 |
| popey | picpaste? | 14:13 |
| popey | nah, can't remember | 14:13 |
| ali1234 | that is a website | 14:13 |
| davmor2 | brobostigon: just use u1 and share the link | 14:13 |
| ali1234 | like imagebin | 14:13 |
| ali1234 | davmor2: how to do that from command line? | 14:14 |
| brobostigon | davmor2: i dont think that will work, it is my raspberry pi, acting as a camera server, hence i was asking for a terminal solution, hence mentioning pastebinit. | 14:15 |
| redtape-renegade | popey.. It worked .. Who do i give the paypal check to ? | 14:16 |
| davmor2 | brobostigon: ah sorry, have a look at pastebinit and see if it has an image setting | 14:16 |
| davmor2 | brobostigon: as far as I knew it did cover different urls for pasting | 14:17 |
| ali1234 | pastebinit doesn't do images afaik but it may ormay not be easy to add | 14:18 |
| brobostigon | thats what i thought, | 14:19 |
| redtape-renegade | How do I open " jockey-gtk " please ? | 14:40 |
| kvarley | redtape-renegade: Alt + F2 and then type jockey-gtk and hit enter | 14:40 |
| redtape-renegade | says there is no such directory .. even though I know it is installed (??) | 14:41 |
| kvarley | redtape-renegade: In 12.10 you can hit the Super key (Windows key) and type software sources and load that app and then you can find the additional drivers app in a tab on that window | 14:41 |
| redtape-renegade | I'm in Lubuntu but I have soft sources open .. | 14:42 |
| kvarley | redtape-renegade: Is there a tab called additional drivers or something similar? | 14:43 |
| redtape-renegade | It just says there are no additional drivers in use .. with no other options .. | 14:43 |
| redtape-renegade | do you want screenshot ? | 14:43 |
| kvarley | redtape-renegade: That's weird, it usually shows a list of proprietary drivers available to you. What drivers are you trying to install? | 14:44 |
| redtape-renegade | I cant do wifi .. there aren't any aditional drivers installed .. so i guess all that I can poss. get.. | 14:44 |
| DJones | redtape-renegade: jockey-gtk doesn't do anything in 12.10 its been included in Software Sources and there is an Additional drivers tab | 14:44 |
| redtape-renegade | right I'll do a screenshot .. hangon .. | 14:45 |

| redtape-renegade | opening... | 14:50 |
| kvarley | If this is for a laptop, searching online for ubuntu + name of laptop + wifi might yield some results on the ubuntuforums | 14:51 |
| redtape-renegade | kvarley: There doesn't seem to be anything relevant on the forums or askubuntru .. I'm wondering why it says that I am connected when I'm not even configured yet ?? http://paste.ubuntu.com/5567823/ | 14:57 |

| ali1234 | you don; use those any more | 15:12 |
| directhex | what is this, 2003? | 15:12 |
| ali1234 | redtape-renegade: run software-properties-gtk and go to last tab (additional drivers) | 15:13 |
| ali1234 | if there's nothing in that... well, i guess there are no proprietary drivers available for your hardware? | 15:13 |
| ali1234 | it certainly look like it is already working in your paste | 15:14 |
| directhex | which wifi chips have no linux drivers at all, in 2013? | 15:14 |
| ali1234 | none | 15:14 |
| popey | redtape-renegade: run "lspci" and "nm-tool" and pastebin the output pls | 15:15 |
| ali1234 | also dmesg | 15:15 |
| ali1234 | always dmesg | 15:15 |
| ali1234 | it might be missing a firmware only or something | 15:15 |
| ali1234 | but if it says it is working i wonder why you're even worrying about it... | 15:15 |
| redtape-renegade | Well everything is ticked to tell me and theres nothing in Additional proprietory drivers tab .. I have a Samsung N135 .. and the N140 is listed as having them :: http://sourceforge.net/apps/mediawiki/ndiswrapper/index.php?title=Category:Samsung | 15:16 |

| redtape-renegade | https://dl.dropbox.com/u/55128914/Lubuntu%20docs/Wifi%20useage%20access.png | 15:25 |
| redtape-renegade | I'm losty as how I log onto them ?? | 15:25 |
| popey | dont use that dialog | 15:25 |
| popey | do you have a network manager icon in your panel? | 15:25 |
| redtape-renegade | oh sorry.. | 15:26 |
| redtape-renegade | no but i may be able to add it .. hang-on.. | 15:26 |
| popey | that dialog is usually used for maintaining connection details _after_ you have successfully connected to an AP at least once | 15:26 |
| popey | sorry, i dont know lubuntu at all | 15:26 |
| popey | is there not a network icon in the panel at all that you can single click on to get a list of access points? | 15:26 |

| bigcalm | popey: white balance could do with a tweak ;) | 15:28 |
| popey | default on the camera | 15:29 |
| popey | dunno how to change it | 15:29 |
| popey | maybe some imagemagick could post-process it? | 15:29 |
| bigcalm | popey: threaten it with a soldering iron | 15:29 |
| popey | hah | 15:29 |
| bigcalm | You could do post processing, aye | 15:29 |
| mgdm | what are you using to stream it? | 15:29 |
| mgdm | Last time, I used mjpeg_streamer, which I think has options for WB adjustment | 15:30 |
| mgdm | it was a while ago | 15:30 |
| popey | the camera has a built in webserver | 15:32 |

| BigRedS | Is there somewhere a repostiory I can point a maverick machine at to get updates? | 16:11 |
| BigRedS | no, not updates, just new software of the same obsolescence | 16:12 |
| BigRedS | archive.ubuntu.com seems LTS only | 16:12 |
| BigRedS | Aha! http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ | 16:13 |
| popey | !old-releases | 16:13 |
| popey | hmm, there must be a factoid for that | 16:13 |
| popey | !unsupported | 16:13 |
| popey | pffft | 16:13 |
| BigRedS | haha, I assumed archive.ubuntu.com and I'm not sure why there's a distinction... | 16:17 |
| ali1234 | BigRedS: i think it's so that you actuallly notice when it stops working | 16:19 |
| popey | also so it's not mirrored | 16:19 |
| BigRedS | oh, is archive.ubuntu.com not just old stuff? | 16:21 |
| BigRedS | ah yeah, the old things are LTSs | 16:22 |
| popey | and non-LTS | 16:22 |
| popey | everything is on there | 16:22 |
| popey | i.e. everything which is now End Of Life | 16:22 |

| BigRedS | http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/ | 16:23 |
| Laney | on old-releases | 16:23 |
| BigRedS | oh. yeah. I got that earlier | 16:23 |
| BigRedS | I was wondering why *some* old stuff was on archive.ubuntu.com, but I guess that's 'cause it's old LTSes and they're still supported | 16:23 |
| Laney | only LTSes that are in support are on there | 16:24 |
| popey | ya, that | 16:24 |
