mikeconceptsIf anyone here has anything to do with the Pentium M survey, please count me as voting yes, the survey closed already.19:20
phillwmikeconcepts: thanks for taking the interest, we are still discussing how best to assist people with Pentium M's.19:27
mikeconceptsphillw, thanks, means something to me19:28
phillwmikeconcepts: just so as you know you are not ignored, we have a draft for lubuntu at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Lubuntu-fake-PAE which feeds into https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PAE as always with lubuntu, we fight like siblings.19:31
phillwWe will have a resolution worked out. Which will be the offer of all the ways to sort the issue out.19:32
mikeconceptsphillw, awesome, thanks again19:32
balloon1how do i make a lubuntu bootstick19:59
holsteinballoon1: i use a lubuntu iso and unetbootin20:00
balloon1awsum :>20:00
SlitHi! What would happened if I uninstall PCmanFM? I would like to use instead xfm. If I do that, how would I start xfm20:01
holsteinSlit: i would just use xfm. no need to remove anything in order to do that20:01
Slit@holstein. I would like for my lubuntu to be even lighter20:02
holsteinSlit: lighter? or take up less hard drive space?20:02
holsteinSlit: the "lightness" will not be affected by removing pcmanfm.. and its *quite* small20:02
Slitless hard and less cpu and ram...20:03
holsteinSlit: then, you can leave it in place20:03
Slithow much hard pcman use20:04
holsteinotherwise, you can remove it just as you would remove anything else.. though, i would be cautious of dependencies and what else is "expecting" pcmanfm20:04
holsteinSlit: i would just open a package manager and check.. it will be *quite* small20:04
Slityes that was my question, maybe to much dependencies, meaning, no abiword ...20:05
holsteinSlit: i would just set it up to be removed, and read about what all is being removed with it... if that looks like its unacceptable, i would leave it in place, since the hard drive space its taking up is, as i said, quite small, and resources when its not in use are irrelevant20:06
Slitmaybe to risky, better to try in virtual machine20:07
holsteinballoon1: http://www.ubuntu.com/download/desktop/create-a-usb-stick-on-windows here is a guide for doing it from windows20:08
holsteinSlit: risky? its just a file manager.. just have good backups (as you should regardless, since whatever hardware you are using *will* fail) and no how to revert.. how to reinstall the filemanger and set the default filemanager20:08
holsteinif you are asking me "how would you use another filemanger?"... i would just use it, and not bother with removing anything.. its likely quite small the space you would reclain20:09
holsteinreclaim*20:09
Slit@holstein: I am new to linux, so wouldn't be cool to see my self in command line mode :-)20:11
holsteinSlit: in synaptic, when i search "pcmanfm" the size is 1378 kB20:11
holsteinSlit: removing pcmanfm to "save space" on the hard drive is not constructive20:11
Slityes 1378 kb, but with dependencies?20:12
holsteinSlit: if you are new to linux, then just use the version of linux you have "as-is" for a while.. get used to the defaults20:12
holsteinSlit: lubuntu is one of the lighter distros, and switching from pcmanfm will *not* reclaim much for you20:12
holsteinSlit: lets say it gets you 20mb of hard drive space?20:12
holsteinSlit: whats that matter?20:12
holsteinthats nothing...20:13
Slittrue :-) better to lear a bit, but I will try in vm20:13
Slit:-)20:13
holsteinSlit: i see "After this operation, 6,789 kB disk space will be freed." when i run "sudo apt-get autoremove pcmanfm"20:14
holsteinSlit: run it where you like.. but its *not* going to be a contructive way of re-distributing resources20:14
holsteinyou will free up about 8mb of hard drive space... best case.. assuming you dont "break" anything in the process20:14
holsteinor, you can just install the other filemanger and use it, and you please20:15
Slit:-) It's nothing :-) but whay is lubunut a bit big 500 MB, or so20:15
holsteinSlit: "big" is a matter of opinion20:15
holstein!minimal20:15
ubottuThe Minimal CD image is very small in size, and it downloads most packages from the Internet during installation, allowing you to select only those you want (the installer is like the one on the !Alternate CD). See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD20:15
holsteinSlit: i suggest installing from that ^^ which is around 30mb.. then, you can add just what you want and build your own ubuntu based install from scratch20:16
Slitlook at slitaz, very small and very fast, the fastes for me... Don't like this upgrade from internet... slow network for me20:16
holsteinSlit: at the end of doing these for myself, i usually find that i end up with something resembling lubuntu in size20:16
Slithttp://www.slitaz.org/en/20:17
holsteinSlit: i have used slitaz.. if i want slitaz, i use slitaz20:17
SlitI would use Slitaz, but no drivers for my 3g modem and no support for my letters čć20:17
holsteinSlit: those drivers take up space.. *everything* is a compromise20:18
Slitand it is not ubuntu based20:18
SlitI don't like compromise :-)20:18
holsteinSlit: that support takes up space20:18
Slitthat's not good...20:18
holsteinSlit: all of this code is open.. you are free to build your own20:19
holsteinSlit: its actually quite good.. there are differnt things for different default purposes20:19
holsteinif you want to "hack" at slitaz, and add the things that are missing for you, im sure you can20:19
Slitwhat you mena build for your own, I am no good in programming20:19
holsteinif you want to remove some things from lubuntu, you can, and are welcome to do so.. or make your own from minimal20:20
holsteinSlit: then, if you are "no good in programming"... you'll need to go with something set up for you.. if lubuntu is a good fit, try it out20:20
SlitIt is funny, I would like UI of lubuntu but speed of Slitaz or Bodhi linux20:21
holsteinSlit: you can run LXDE in bodhi or slitaz20:21
holsteinSlit: i would /join an appropriate slitaz of bodhi support avenue and ask about installing lxde20:21
SlitIn bodhi?20:22
holsteinin bodhi is should be "sudo apt-get install lxde"20:22
holsteinSlit: correct.. in bodhi linux, where you can install lxde, the ui from lubuntu20:22
SlitI once instale lxde on ubuntu, but look is different in lubuntu, why. what I am missing20:22
holsteinSlit: you can configure lxde (or anything) as you want.. lubuntu has customized lxde for the distro... what are you missing? you are running ubuntu with lxde.. not lubuntu20:23
Slitit is, your right for bodhi20:23
Slitno, lubunut... i once instaled on ubuntu20:24
holsteinSlit: correct20:24
holsteinSlit: you installed ubuntu, and added lxde.. and it "looked different".. and that is why.. that ubuntu with lxde added.. not lubuntu.. lubuntu has a customized lxde setup20:24
SlitI will try bodhi in lxde20:24
holsteinyou can mimic (or straight up steal) the config from lubuntu if you like20:24
holsteinSlit: you will try lxde in bodhi20:25
Slityes, lubuntu is "nicer"20:25
balloon1awsum++20:25
holsteinSlit: "nicer" is a matter of opinion20:25
Slitthat is why I ad " "20:25
holsteinSlit: its *all* open, and you are able to, and encouraged to grab what you like20:25
Slitwould do. Is it true that E17 is faster then lxde?20:26
holsteinSlit: no desktop environment is really "faster".. the hardware is what it is.. and cannont be made faster by a desktop environment.. but, some can be less resource intensive, and "seem" faster, or be more responsive20:26
holsteinSlit: lxde is, from what i find, better supported.. and i prefer it to E17... is E17 faster? seemed similar to LXDE to me20:27
Slitfor me e17 is responsive20:28
Unit193Fluxbox. :D20:28
holsteinthe speed is not why i would run LXDE vs E17... for me, its because i finde LXDE easier to deal with, and configure20:28
holsteinSlit: you can install E17 in ubuntu if you like20:28
Sliti have old computer, celleron cpu, and you can tell a difference... yes obviously you can install it...20:29
holsteinSlit: i see not much difference in responsiveness on any of my hardware.. celerons and others.. but you can run what you like20:30
Sliti realy see, maybe it is sometnihg different. Don' t know wha it is. Ubuntu is heavy comparing with xp20:31
Sliton my comp20:31
holsteinSlit: try not comparing them20:31
Slitwhy?20:31
holsteinSlit: its not the goal of ubuntu to be "lighter" on your hardware than xp20:31
holsteinit is what it is.. and the issue, assuming there is an issue, could be to do with hardware driver support20:32
SlitI know it isn't20:32
holsteinplus, xp is quite old, and arguably more appropriate for older hardware than software created a few months ago20:32
holsteincan you find a linux distro to run comfortably on your hardware? likely.. can that be lubuntu? very likely20:33
Slityes it is old xp, but ubuntu has a "voice" of being good for old computers20:33
holsteinSlit: lubuntu does.. ubuntu makes no such claims.. also, lubuntu is dealing with the kernel, and other main ubuntu packages as they are20:34
SlitI meant lubuntu20:34
holsteini usually start with the graphics driver support. i usually just try live CD's til i find something that generally supports my hardware20:36
holsteinthese days, hardware is so resonably priced, i dont waste too much time on p3's and celerons.. but, when i did, puppy linux was a go-to for testing as well as lubuntu... and other diagnostic live CD's20:37
SlitYour right holstein.... I have to say good by for know, my family meber needs computer for half an houer.... I will come back on Bodhi... s20:37
Slit:-)20:37
holsteinSlit: enjoy20:38
SlitSee you maybe in 30 min...20:38
