[01:03] can't install lubuntu [01:04] aborts the install [01:07] installing Lubuntu 13.04 [01:08] in an old laptop: Everex onestep note [01:08] 100.680748 longhaul [05:50] hi [09:19] I need some help figuring out what's going on. When I right click a file and select 'compress' nothing happens. I'm running lubuntu 12.10. [09:20] There is no new entry in the log if I try to. [09:24] meerkat: Edit > Preferences > Advanced what's listed? [09:25] archiver integration: xarchiver [09:25] And is that installed? file-roller is generally a better choice, though. [09:26] nope. not installed [09:26] There you go. [09:26] yes! file roller! That's what used to pop up back in the day. Thank you :D [09:29] Sure. === jeanaustinr is now known as jeanaustinr|x [15:06] hello all. im move my finger around on the touch pad and lines follow the cursor like i was in paint [15:08] djono: i would look at the graphics driver [15:09] it happened after i turned the elantech pad to ps/2 [15:09] djono: then, revert the changes, and test [15:11] i did. on elantech its normal but ps/2 it has the line. i prefer the ps/2 cause i can keep index on the the left bottom and middle to scroll [15:11] djono: i would look for, and apply all upgrades.. i would try a live CD with a different graphics driver.. an easy way to try that is "nomodeset" [15:13] oh i c. i thought the graphics card drivers were included haha [15:14] djono: they are [15:14] djono: and you are using one.. im suggesting you use another one, to test [15:14] djono: is that the issue? i have no idea, and likely, no one will be able to volunteer any helpful information for you without you doing some troubleshooting [15:16] i would elaborate.. "im using this *specific* mouse connected to lubuntu 13.04 32bit, and it produces *insert screenshot*" [15:16] "when i use another ps2 mouse, this happens".. "i have upgraded the softare", or "i have not" [15:16] software* [15:17] sorry. [15:17] djono: have you applied all upgrades? have you tried "nomodeset" ? [15:17] !nomodeset [15:17] A common kernel (boot)parameter is nomodeset, which is needed for some graphic cards that otherwise boot into a black screen or show corrupted splash screen. See http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1613132 on how to use this parameter [15:19] Okay. i have this new system. the touchpad sucks. the lubuntu sees it as elantech. i hate it cause no multifinger touch.( two fingers stops the pointer from moving) when its at ps/2 im free to do what i want. now when i click and drag the pointer becomes a draw line like on paint [15:20] djono: with *any* and *all* ps2 mice? have you applied upgrades? [15:20] doin it now [15:21] my touch pad is recognized as ps/2 instead of the being recognized as elantech [15:21] djono: have you tried another mouse? can you try another mouse? do you have a USB mouse? [15:21] djono: are we troubleshooting the pad? or the mouse? [15:21] the pad. the pad is recognized as ps/2 [15:22] djono: then, you need to start over [15:22] djono: i thought you said "the pad works, but the ps2 looks bad" [15:23] djono: apply upgrades, and reboot.. then take a screenshot [15:24] the pad works. at first its recognized as elantech. then i ran sudo modprobe -r psmouse [15:24] sudo modprobe psmouse proto=imps and now its recognized as ps/2 [15:24] djono: ok.. so undo your changes, and test [15:25] also, take a screenshot... i dont know if you are talking about a cursor or graphics issues [15:29] cursor isues [15:31] http://imageshack.us/f/827/screenshotfrom201306132.png/ [15:31] djono: what commands did you run? and why? [15:31] djono: and, did you apply all upgrades? [15:33] sudo modprobe psmouse proto=imps. i ran those because multifinger didn't work when recognized as elantech. as ps/2 im able to use index to click and middle to move the pointer [15:34] did u see the red line? [15:35] djono: why did you use that command? where did you get it? can you revert? [15:36] http://askubuntu.com/questions/82593/etps-elantech-touchpad-fails-detecting-single-finger [15:36] got it from there [15:37] forgot to mention when i use unity no prob but reboot to lubuntu this happens [15:38] to lxde [15:38] yep [15:38] so, you installed ubuntu? and added lxde? or lubuntu-desktop ? [15:38] djono: i dont see a red line [15:39] lubuntu then unity [15:39] what would i do? undo those changes, and let me, and the other volunteers know if you have applied all upgrades? [15:39] have you applied all upgrades? have you reverted those changes and tested? [15:40] dont know how to revert [15:40] djono: have you applide all upgrades? [15:41] applied* [15:41] http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/38/201306132225321366x768s.png/ [15:41] yes just got done [15:42] so, reboot to the latest kernel, and test [15:42] kk [15:51] hello [16:52] hi guys [16:52] how can I move the bar windows? [17:40] hello all. how do i enable finger resting on an integrated touchpad? [17:44] don't even know what it is [17:45] im one of those click with the index and move pointer with middle finger type users. when i rest my index on the touch pad i cant move the pointer with the middle finger [17:51] preferences -> key and mouse ocnfigurations? [17:51] nothing there [17:52] it works on windows but on lubuntu none === phunyguy_ is now known as phunyguy [19:55] hi, is there a tool to install fonts on lubuntu [20:05] hi jjosh [20:06] jjosh: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2027331 [20:29] hello all [20:31] llo [20:32] question : im on lubuntu 13.4 and prefer to use fluxbox as my window manager..however i cant browse my installed apps through pcmanfm .. so everytime i need to find a command to an app recently installed or already been on my system i have to logout and start lubuntu/ldxe [20:34] Host 'nice', running Linux 3.8.0-23-generic - Cpu0: Intel 800 MHz Cpu1: Intel 800 MHz; Up: 4:53; Users: 3; Load: 0; Free: [Mem: 282/3824 Mio] [Swap: 3962/3962 Mio] [/: 269692/296426 Mio]; Vpenis: 219.4 cm; [20:34] tha'ts shitt [20:34] Vpenis: 219.4 cm; ? lol [21:09] When I click on go and networkdrives in pcmfm I see the network drives but they don't mount. What do I install for that? [21:10] thanks :-) n-iCe [21:11] have a good day [21:11] I tried fuse, samba, cifs, mount, stuff No go? [21:12] the gvfs debs don't help either. [21:15] If I mount them myself then I start getting "no end point " errors when using a graphical file manager [21:16] terminal works ok with my own mounts [21:17] I have installed several times because of all the extra garbage I have tried with no success. [21:18] I made it [21:18] Xubuntu, Unity, work with no problem but matching the logical matching debs doesn't help Lubuntu [21:18] *sigh* [21:19] I'm having problems with my Lubuntu machine. The audio keeps having static problems [21:21] This is cool [21:21] max1, try shutting off (muting) mic and head phones etc. [21:21] I reboot the computer and it works [21:22] then if I put it to sleep for a while I wake it up for "suspend" and there is audio problems [21:22] max1, I get a roar with mic or headphones maxed out [21:22] hmm [21:22] w30: Got gvfs-backends I'd assume? [21:23] Unit193, nope, tried that. Several times [21:24] Unit193, you would think so but something else needs to be done [21:27] on my other xubuntu box I get /home/w30/.gvfs/smb-share:server=dixbox,share=dick_public for a directory [21:28] nothin' for Lubuntu [21:29] what creates those mounts? [21:29] its very quit [21:29] quite [21:30] quite quiet [21:30] w30: Don't know what to say, it's working for me, but I use mount anyway as it avoids the overhead of gvfs. [21:30] hehe [21:31] Unit193, do you use cifs, gigolo, fuse etc? [21:32] cifs. [21:32] (And sshfs, but that's different. :P ) [21:34] I would think cifs and smbclient would be needed but it don't make pcmanfm or nautilus mount the shares even though it sees them.... [21:38] I always loose my end points when using a graphical share file cruise like changing back a directory. I can't visit twice. [21:39] this is hissing me off.
