=== jeanaustinr is now known as jeanaustinr|x [00:30] Hello, "preferred applications" seems to fail to recognise chromium browser (only shows firefox and chrome), any way to fix that ? [02:15] So I've heard some FUD surrounding Lubuntu and Mir. Should I, as a user, be concerned? [02:38] Too early to tell. [03:44] I am using Lubuntu 13.10 as a live booted OS from a USB key. Is there any way that I can save my preferences/ application settings so that the next time I boot up using the live usb function that I can have all of my setting like the last way I used them? Thank you. [04:09] qwebirc8925: 13.10? Or 13.04? .10 is very early development... [04:09] !persistence [04:09] To have some persistent storage when using a Live CD, follow the instructions on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LiveCDPersistence [04:10] thank you [04:10] and .04 my bad [04:10] Sure, and that makes more sense. :) [04:10] :) === jeanaustinr is now known as jeanaustinr|x [17:12] Can any body tell how to add VPN PPTP in lubuntu? [17:13] !vpn [17:13] For more information on vpn please refer to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/VPN [17:13] CrazyRussianBear: it'll be very similar in all the buntu's.. though the gui's may vary [17:14] In GUI I tried, but there isn't any field or smt there I can choose PPTP [17:16] CrazyRussianBear: you are referring to the link i gave? [17:17] Is it can be installed without Internet& [17:18] I mean Can It be installed without Internet ? [17:18] Sorry for my English [17:19] CrazyRussianBear: you'll need the internect to access a VPN [17:19] CrazyRussianBear: i would say , the easy way would be to connect temporarily and sort it out [17:20] As for xubuntu is there already installed all these vpn features? [17:21] CrazyRussianBear: everything is easily installable [17:21] CrazyRussianBear: i would refer to the link i gave [17:21] !vpn | CrazyRussianBear this should give you all the information you need for *any* ubuntu version [17:21] CrazyRussianBear this should give you all the information you need for *any* ubuntu version: For more information on vpn please refer to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/VPN [17:23] I got it. But as you mentioned above I need an Internet to make this command "sudo apt-get install network-manager-pptp" ?Was I understand you clear? Or maybe I wrong [17:24] CrazyRussianBear: you will need internet to access a VPN, so why not just have the connection to install the packages? [17:24] CrazyRussianBear: there are ways to install packages by downloading them onto another machine... [17:24] what would i do? just plug in, if only temporarily.. so the "easy way" commands work [17:25] i cant imagine needing a VPN connection when not having an internet connection [17:27] My provider use simple network connection and automaticly send me all settings (ip, gateway and etc) in according to my MAC. And then to access to INternet I need to make an VPN connection you know. [17:28] sure.. *over* an internet connection [17:28] so, over that internet connection, install the packages [17:29] Surely I'll donwload packege in this computer and install on another [17:30] sure [17:30] that would be "the hard way" [17:31] if you can only temporarily hook up to the internet that you *must* have for the VPN to work anyway.. that will make things easier [17:33] The problem is that the computer there I have to set VPN is in another place and there isn't any other Internet connections [17:34] then, you will *not* be able to connect to the vpn [17:35] http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/GNOME/sources/NetworkManager/0.9/ I have to download that? [17:37] CrazyRussianBear: whatever the link suggests you need [17:39] The link that you gave or mine? [17:40] !vpn [17:40] For more information on vpn please refer to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/VPN [17:42] i don't have internet connection to get that plugin [17:43] CrazyRussianBear: then, you dont have a connection to connect to a VPN [17:44] It's like coterie. I need the internet to install plugin to have internet. Cool shit [17:44] !language [17:44] Please watch your language and topic to help keep this channel family-friendly, polite, and professional. [17:46] Man, thank you for your help, I'll try to set this VPN. That for you help [17:47] sure.. good luck! [20:37] Howdy! Just installed 13.04, then removed a few things I did not need and updated. On reboot, my mouse pointer is working ... but invisible. [20:44] I'd like to be able to see it. How can I bring it back? [20:45] jxshxx: what did you remove? [20:47] I remember taking out a Simple Scan, a video player, a couple Open Box somethings, Bluetooth configuration ... [20:49] jxshxx: the openbox ones will be the one that made the pointer invisible :) [20:50] Okay. Thought that was a totally separate UI [20:51] open box looks after the screen stuff (amongst other tasks) [20:51] jxshxx: if it were not needed, it would not be in lubuntu :) [20:52] I am gratefully chastised [20:53] lol, heck, breaking things is the best way to learn (So I keep telling myself :P ) [20:54] Then I shall learn many things, indeed ... [20:56] Manged to find my way into the software center and install openbox. Instant cursor, not even a reboot needed! [20:56] Many thanks! [20:58] jxshxx: enjoy your learning, we were all complete newcomers once. It is a delight to see someone start upon that path.... Give it a few months and you will be able to help the newcomers, that's a good day when it happens :) [21:49] Hello [21:51] I m installing lubu 12.10, i should restart manually or is automatic? [21:54] calimero82: when completed, it should ask you to eject the install media. [21:55] It s on usb [21:55] Not in cd [21:56] It s written: caught signal 15, shutting down [21:57] But nothing happening [21:57] What should i do? === jeanaustinr is now known as jeanaustinr|x
