[00:24] pinta [00:25] cristina: thanks, what is synapse [00:25] google it:D [00:25] quick luncer [00:25] cristina, I think that is why semitones was looking for a guide.

[00:28] i only need to use flash on any browser, for my parents. [00:28] chromium, opera, doesn't matter. but i don't find any solution. [00:29] ok i use chromium [00:29] you?

Maybe a good starting point? [00:35] then go to baschet and install aplication [00:35] is simple [00:37] chromium cannot see plugin [00:37] hm..

I didn't understand that part either! [00:43] from firefox: youtube gets me black screen...

[00:59] the same is for icon on the left [01:00] plug: I do NOT play any games on Fb. I cannot help you. [01:00] why do this? [01:02] plug: if pcmanfm is causing an isuue, please raise a bug. [01:03] but what you have so far said... I do not know how to help[. [01:04] ok, thanks. [01:06] phillw: for further problem. this is the solution (in italian) http://forum.ubuntu-it.org/viewtopic.php?f=73&t=539846 for my problem. [01:07] 11.2 is the problem. people have to install previous version (11.1) [01:07] if someone in the future ask you the some thing as me, now. [01:10] bye [01:41] morning. I'm having trouble with one program across accounts. I wanted to check the different starting mechanisms - one account has a desktop icon, the other uses the start menu. What do I edit to see the properties of an entry in the start menu? [01:52] ie, by using vim Desktop/blah.desktop I can see it's EXEC value - how do I find the same value for the start menu item? [01:53] datakid: i would start here... http://wiki.lxde.org/en/Main_Menu [01:55] thanks holstein [02:07] When running glxgears, my output says synced to vertical refresh...how do I set this to be unsnyced? [02:14] subman: i would think that wuld be done in a custom xorg.conf [02:15] Any links to research that? [02:17] http://www.x.org/archive/X11R6.8.0/doc/xorg.conf.5.html for example from searching "xorg.conf vertical sync" [02:18] "+VSync" and "-VSync" can be used to select the polarity of the VSync signal from using "control + f" and searching "vsync" on that page === dasein is now known as Guest22816 [03:01] Hi there [03:01] yo [03:01] How shall I change my lubuntu desktop into lubuntu server without reinstalling? [03:02] sonofzeus: there is not "lubuntu server", so you just have it [03:02] sonofzeus: you can run whatever server specific things you want along with LXDE, or remove whatever desktop packages you like [03:03] Okay [03:04] What packages does a general server consist of? [03:04] Pls lemme know. [03:04] sonofzeus: depends [03:04] Its a general server [03:04] One that hosts websites. [03:04] sonofzeus: that all depends on what kind of services you want/need [03:04] http://www.turnkeylinux.org/ [03:05] take a look at those ^ you can run them live, and see what you want/need [03:05] most folks just want a lamp stack, but you might just want apache.. or something else [03:05] Okay thanks [16:17] hi [17:07] hello :) [17:07] I have aroblem with a hp deskjet 2050 printer in lubuntu [17:07] as [17:07] ask [17:07] a problem [17:08] The printer detects and install fine but when trying to print a document it says "0k" [17:08] as in 0K byte documenrt [17:08] it says it's printing but it does not [17:09] help please :) [17:09] reboot [17:09] tried tha but did not help :( [17:10] michebunny: sudo apt-get remove hplip --purge [17:14] thanks for the help :) [17:14] worked [17:17] :) [17:21] n-iCe: why not pop onto #lubuntu-offtopic for a chat? [17:27] I was not chatting :p [17:27] look phillw1 [17:33] hi phillw [17:33] phillw: http://pastebin.com/FHSStM9Y [17:33] I was not chatting [17:34] n-iCe: it wasnt accusatory as far as i see.. more of an invitation [17:36] n-iCe: when my sister had a problem with an HP 'all in one', it was solved by following https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HpAllInOne [17:37] holstein: indeed it was just an invitation to see how life is :) [17:37] hi [17:38] oh :) [17:38] michebunny: is back [17:39] hi michebunny have you had a read of https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HpAllInOne it helps setting up an HP printer [17:40] I think his problem was solved [17:40] 12:14 < michebunny> thanks for the help :) [17:40] 12:14 < michebunny> worked [17:40] oooh, I scarred him away! [17:41] :p [18:56] Done, I'm in 13.04 [19:08] 83 [19:08] * cerebrate congratumalaters n-iCe [19:26] hey, i install lubuntu on top of ubuntu 12.04 LTS because compiz/unity was using too much memory, but now i have lubuntu, i was wondering if i can remove compiz/unity without affecting the system? [19:27] phillw: I'm in 13.04 :) [19:27] FrankieJ: lubuntu does not come with compiz [19:27] n-iCe: as am I... a bit fiddly because of my suite of test areas. [19:27] ^^ [19:28] i know [19:28] i installed ubuntu 12.04 LTS first [19:28] n-iCe: nope, it is a lean install. you can add stuff to it. [19:28] then i apt-get lubuntu [19:30] FrankieJ: Try to log in with Unity 2D (that does not use Compiz) [19:30] sorry, I mis-read it for conky. I do not know about compiz :) [19:32] n-iCe, im sticking with lubuntu right now, i just wanted to know if i removed unity/compiz, would it affect lubuntu in any way [19:33] no, it should not. [19:33] Remove just the packages [19:33] FrankieJ: any way, lubuntu 13.04 was released, a clean install should be better. [19:33] but, sudo apt-get purge compiz compiz-plugins-main-default libcompizconfig0 , should do the work. [19:33] i got LAMP all set up on my system, if i do clean install i lose set up no? [19:34] get the LAMP configuration files and save them [19:35] but, yes, all will be lost. [19:35] FrankieJ: dump your mysql tables and contents to a safe place, then re-install them [19:35] phillw: what about doing a backup to /home, not sure if lamp files mysql are being stored there [19:35] FrankieJ: mysql has a command to do both [19:36] n-iCe: mysql files are not stored in /home [19:36] Since Hardy, Ubuntu can be reinstalled while preserving home [19:36] I see [19:36] what is new in 13 that i should do clean install? [19:36] i cant jus upgrade? [19:37] an upgrade will preserve. a new install will not. [19:37] you can, but old ubuntu configurations will still be there [19:37] * n-iCe steps back [19:37] FrankieJ: yes, and upgrade will not remove them [19:37] * n-iCe always do clean installs [19:39] kk thx everyone [19:39] FrankieJ: if you re-install, you basically wipe the hard disk. Using upgrade will retain your data, it is important to have a backup just in case things go wrong. [19:41] phillw, yea ima back everything up, but is there i should worry about cuz im still new to this and i install ubuntu before i installed lubuntu so i know i retained ubuntu's programs and such...but what is in ubuntu that isnt in lubuntu [19:41] desktop environment [19:41] remove unity gnome compiz etc, you will catch lubuntu desktop which is lxde [19:42] FrankieJ: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Lubuntu#Lubuntu_VS_Ubuntu [19:43] lol phillw, that's funny [19:43] ok lemme backup and clean install [19:43] thanks a lot [19:44] FrankieJ: if you need help saving your mysql area, give me a dig in the ribs (ping). [19:46] lol kk [19:49] phillw, i jus remembered i got special keybinds ive created but i forgot where its located and how to back up [19:50] FrankieJ: I cannot help on them if they are not in your /home area. [19:51] ask on the mailing list. [19:52] phillw, would you know what you would have to download in order to help change monitor settings for dual monitors? [19:52] holstein: do you know where they would be? [19:52] i got super+1 bind to single display and super+2 bind to extend display via hdmi [19:53] with set resolution [19:53] nvm i got it [19:53] its ARandR [19:53] heard of that before? [19:54] FrankieJ: I used the in built screen system to do a recent presentation using a projector. But, for something more complicated I'd suggest http://lubuntu.net/tags/arandr [19:56] phillw, i found it thx [19:57] if anyone curious >> http://www.lubuntutips.com/2012/05/dual-monitors-in-lubuntu.html [19:58] FrankieJ: I still used the in built lx tool, but I had that as backup in case I needed it. But, I think ArandR is a good GUI tool to make and edit the x,org file. [20:00] all i know it works lol [20:10] hmmm, now i have several files i would like to copy and back up, but to a windows 7 machine, ive copied files FROM win7 onto this machine jus fine, but right now i am unable to copy to IT [23:40] hello. I would like to hide the menu (File, Edit, Go, ..) in pcmanfm. Is this possible? [23:40] i use it scarcely and it eats up vertical space on my display
