=== xGrind is now known as Guest69261 [14:30] Some of the software I've installed has huge icons in the applications menu. How do I fix that? [14:35] everyone, is there a difference, in the amount of work to be done, and in technical difficulty, between: 1) upgrading from a x.04 to a x.10 release, and 2) upgrading from an x.10 release to an (x+1).04 release? [15:39] hiui [15:40] hi i am looking for some to help me to install ubuntu on tablet [15:40] Hello, for many years I had run a redhat machine that was my router and firewall, and it worked flawlessly from 2002 to 2013 when the hd started having errors. [15:41] It was a pentuim 1 with 256mb ram. and a 20mb hd. I was wondering if Lubuntu would do the same job? [15:41] On the same machine [15:43] i have seen video on ubuntu official site running ubuntu on nexus [16:39] Hi. In my Lubuntu setup, my mic is quiet and when i rise db i have noises and i can hear my voice. I use alsa (no pulse installed) [16:39] Can anyone suggest a solution? [16:45] manolos: try pulse... i would expect a bit of noise there.. .try another mic or hardware designed for what you are doing [16:46] i have many problems with pulse and specially with skype [16:46] manolos: i use skype with and without pulse [16:47] manolos: i would look in alsamixer and try muting things.. play around with the settings [16:48] ok ill try that [19:04] Hello [19:04] is there a difference, in the amount of work to be done, and in technical difficulty, between: 1) upgrading from a x.04 to a x.10 release, and 2) upgrading from an x.10 release to an (x+1).04 release? [19:10] no. [19:10] bennypr0fane: no difference, unless for troublesome values of x :) [19:10] atleast theoretically. [19:11] also, crossposting is a bit rude, you might end up getting conflicting information and help and it can be distracting to both you and the person who tries to help you. [19:26] Myrtti really, you think it's rude? I actually wouldn't consider this crossposting [19:26] bennypr0fane: a *bit* [19:27] just enough to warrant mentioning it, but not enough to start a bigger hissy fit about it. [19:28] I dunno, I don't see any harm aksing the same questions in 2 IRC channels. I'm not having a fit about it, I'd just like to understand what is specifically that you consider rude. [19:29] I mean we all know the situation where in one place there is no one who can help you, so you go try the place, right? [19:29] *the next place [19:30] anyway, you got your answer and this time it wasn't conflicting with the information you got from the other place, so you're all good. [19:30] yes [19:31] So, I'd like to crosspost that other question too, actually. May I? [19:34] When I edit /etc/default/grub and do update-grub, nothing changes in the bootmenu. also, the grub file doesn't look anything like my actual bootmenu. There are 4 Linuxes on my harddrive. I'm wondering where that grub that is booting me now is located and where's the one that I edited just now. The last install that I did was Bodhi Linux, and that is what boots by default now. So how can I make Lubuntu control my desired GRub config now? [19:36] IIRC, Grub is placed on master boot record, which is the first sector on my harddrive, and only one instnace of grub can be present there - correct? [19:43] Can't you just use the "grub installer" and reinstall grub from Lubuntu? [19:44] grub installer? [19:44] haven't heard of it. is it in the repos? [19:45] !grub | bennypr0fane should mention it [19:45] bennypr0fane should mention it: GRUB2 is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost GRUB after installing Windows? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestoreGrub - For more information and troubleshooting for GRUB2 please refer to https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2 [19:47] (grub-install, comes with it.) That wiki should help. [19:51] ok, trying grub-install now [20:05] thanks, grub-install worked! I wonder why there are 2 instnaces of Lubuntu in the boot menu though. There's "Ubuntu " (which is my Lubuntu, I dunno why it isn't named so), thgen there's "Previous Linux versions", and then again "Ubuntu ", both "Ubuntus" boot the same OS [20:29] bennypr0fane: It's basically a handy list, then a "List all" type of thing.
