| CarstenG | uzername: Hello. | 09:41 |
|---|---|---|
| CarstenG | uzername: I saw you on Tuesday in the IRC log... | 09:42 |
| CarstenG | ... and gone. | 09:42 |
| CarstenG | uzername: Hi again :-) | 09:44 |
| CarstenG | uzername: I saw you on Tuesday in the IRC log... | 09:44 |
| CarstenG | uzername: You had a question? | 09:44 |
| uzername | Yeah. I'm going to install Lubuntu on my EEEPC 1025C | 09:45 |
| uzername | And save my Win 7 starter | 09:45 |
| CarstenG | Good luck with this experiment :-) | 09:46 |
| uzername | (I've payed for it) | 09:46 |
| uzername | Shall you stay here? | 09:46 |
| uzername | I'm newb on Linux | 09:47 |
| uzername | And I'm afraid to wreck the whole netbook | 09:47 |
| uzername | So... I saw some recomendations about Lubuntu 12.04 installation here: | 09:48 |
| uzername | http://linuxeeepc.blogspot.com/2012/08/lubuntu-on-eeepc-1025c-with-correct.html | 09:48 |
| CarstenG | Well, the most important thing is, that you have done a backup of all your data.. | 09:48 |
| uzername | I'm writing you now from my big Windows PC. All my working data are already here. | 09:49 |
| uzername | So what distro should I consider? 12.04 or 13.04? | 09:50 |
| CarstenG | ok, then you can start :-) | 09:50 |
| CarstenG | Well, 12.04 is a LTS, means long term support... | 09:50 |
| CarstenG | 13.04 is newer... | 09:50 |
| uzername | 12.04 Is considered to be working and 13.04... I'm not sure about it. | 09:51 |
| CarstenG | Then start with 12.04 | 09:51 |
| CarstenG | After you got familiar with it, you can think about a dual boot installation with 13.04 | 09:52 |
| CarstenG | Do you know the Ubuntu Manual? | 09:52 |
| uzername | Here: http://blog.uninstall.it/2012/06/05/kubuntu-12-04-on-asus-eeepc-1025c/ | 09:52 |
| uzername | I also saw some experiments on modifying Linux kernel for this EEEPC. Is it OK to modify and recompile kernel? | 09:52 |
| CarstenG | There you will find a good beginners guide. | 09:53 |
| uzername | I've read Ubuntu Manual, but it did not contain some specific technical recommendations and troubleshooting issues. | 09:53 |
| uzername | Russian manual by Nevrotin (aka Malamut) is much better, but that is about 10.04 | 09:54 |
| CarstenG | Well, kernel compilation is a advanced topic. It depends on your general knowledge about Linux. | 09:54 |
| uzername | CarstenG: Thanks guy, you are much more polite than those men from russian chats. | 09:55 |
| CarstenG | You wrote, you are new to Linux, so I would recommend to start with a normal installation. | 09:55 |
| CarstenG | If you have later on more experience, you can start with your own compilations of kernels... | 09:56 |
| CarstenG | Thanks, you are welcome. :-) | 09:57 |
| uzername | I've used MinGW on Windows but I've found that most of time I'm with MinGW. | 09:57 |
| uzername | So I've decided to move to LUbuntu completely | 09:58 |
| CarstenG | Which manual do you mean? a Russian translation of the Ubuntu Manual, or a original Russian manual? | 09:58 |
| uzername | Umm, both. Nevrotin's manual is based on translation, but he have added some of his experience. | 09:59 |
| uzername | Is it okay? | 09:59 |
| CarstenG | Sure. | 09:59 |
| uzername | So, I now on #ubuntu-manual | 10:00 |
| CarstenG | Where can I find it? | 10:00 |
| CarstenG | the manual? on http://ubuntu-manual.org I don't see it... | 10:00 |
| uzername | So, you want to look through Nevrotin's Work? | 10:02 |
| uzername | Sorry, his name is Vadym Nevorotin | 10:02 |
| CarstenG | And if you like to contribute to the Russian version of the Ubuntu Manual, you are welcome. The version for Raring (13.04) is at 90%... | 10:03 |
| uzername | Contribute? I'm new to Linux. | 10:03 |
| CarstenG | I mean with translation. | 10:03 |
| CarstenG | Translation is a good way to learn a lot about the system.. | 10:04 |
| CarstenG | Yes, I would like to have a look to it, do you have a link? | 10:04 |
| uzername | I have it on my PC... uploading to dropbox, wait, please. | 10:07 |
| uzername | Ugh, carp! My channel seems to be cludged... | 10:09 |
| uzername | here you go, CarstenG: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/27590640/lucid-guide.pdf | 10:09 |
| uzername | It was rather popular several years ago, but it's old now. | 10:10 |
| uzername | Do you know Russian? | 10:10 |
| CarstenG | Well, my Russian is not so good. I had it in school, but this was long time ago^^ | 10:12 |
| CarstenG | But I can still read the letters. :-) | 10:12 |
| uzername | Yay! Russian is studied at American schools! | 10:13 |
| uzername | Downloading lubuntu-12.04-desktop-i386.iso | 10:13 |
| uzername | ... | 10:13 |
| CarstenG | ok, I'm away for some minutes. | 10:13 |
| CarstenG | see you later... | 10:13 |
| uzername | You'he been so nice :3 | 10:14 |
| uzername | And... It's done! | 10:14 |
| uzername | Come back, bro, please :3 | 10:35 |
| CarstenG | Hi, I'm back... | 10:59 |
| uzername | So, I'm done with downloading iso and almost done with writing it to usb. | 11:00 |
| uzername | I have Used Unetbootin | 11:00 |
| CarstenG | What's that? | 11:00 |
| uzername | Tool for making bootable media (usb, CD, DVD) from ISO files | 11:01 |
| CarstenG | ah, ok | 11:01 |
| uzername | Have you used it? | 11:02 |
| CarstenG | no. I use usb-creator for creating a bootable usb stick | 11:06 |
| CarstenG | it's a default application in ubuntu | 11:06 |
| uzername | Created USB drive with lubuntu distro, set correct booting order in bios, but windows is still loading (even with usb drive in port) | 11:11 |
| uzername | I've got a bad feeling about that UEFI | 11:13 |
| uzername | abbreviation | 11:13 |
| CarstenG | does this netbook already have UEFI? | 11:14 |
| uzername | Seems so... But how can I determine, whether my Win 7 Starter was preinstalled in UEFI mode or not? | 11:26 |
| CarstenG | mmmh, I have no experience with UEFI... | 11:37 |
| CarstenG | Sorry, I can not help you here :-( | 11:37 |
| uzername | I've managed to boot LUbuntu from USB using some unobvious BIOS options. | 12:21 |
| uzername | And chose 'suspend' from menu. That was wrong move | 12:22 |
| uzername | CarstenG: After some playing with BIOS settings (they were not obvious, I'd say) I have managed to start install sequence! | 12:58 |
| uzername | Is it OK to Install Lubuntu inside Windows 7? | 12:58 |
