[01:02] <freakingmartin> When I double click it opens archive manager, i want to use openjkd 7
[01:02] <holstein> freakingmartin: so, you have a jar file that you want to run with java? not open?
[01:02] <freakingmartin> yes that's exactly what I meant
[01:02] <holstein> should be java -jar filename.jar
[01:03] <holstein> from a terminal
[01:03] <freakingmartin> I don't want to do it from terminal
[01:06] <holstein> freakingmartin: ok
[01:06] <holstein> freakingmartin: i only know how to do it from the terminal.. you can create a launcher for it to start i you lke
[01:06] <holstein> freakingmartin: i'll let you wait on another volunteer.. cheers
[01:06] <freakingmartin> cheers
[01:07] <holstein> freakingmartin: here is *exactly* your query, and *exactly* my answer
[01:07] <holstein> http://www.overclock.net/t/904687/how-to-run-jar-files-on-ubuntu
[01:08] <freakingmartin> lol that page only answered how to install java, which i already have
[01:08] <holstein> freakingmartin: java -jar FILE.jar ,friend
[01:09] <holstein> as i suggested
[01:09] <freakingmartin> i got it...
[01:09] <freakingmartin> thanks
[01:09] <holstein> freakingmartin: post 3 is where it is suggested, after the "install java" suggestion. and post 4 is the "thanks" answer
[01:09] <holstein> !volunteers | freakingmartin
[01:09] <holstein> though, i have an answer
[01:10] <freakingmartin> You're the expert.
[01:10] <holstein> i never said that
[01:10] <freakingmartin> I never said you did.
[01:10] <holstein> freakingmartin: cool.. enjoy, friend!
[01:34] <freakingmartin> how do i make a desktop configuration file open minecraft.jar?
[01:35] <SonikkuAmerica> Set the shortcut to execute it using Java (you DO have OpenJDK or Oracle Java, right?)
[01:36] <SonikkuAmerica> As in set the command [ java -jar /path/to/jar/file.jar ]
[01:37] <SonikkuAmerica> Other than that, set it up like an ordinary .desktop file.
[01:37] <freakingmartin> I have OpenJDK but when I try to choose an application to run my short cut using OpenJDK, OpenJDK 7 is not listen in installed application. Maybe i can use a custom command line?
[01:38] <SonikkuAmerica> freakingmartin: One second...
[01:40] <SonikkuAmerica> freakingmartin: OK, given that OpenJDK is set as your JRE (through either update-alternatives in a terminal, or through a MIME type editor) OpenJDK should interpret the [ java -jar ] command as the execution of a JAR file.
[01:40] <freakingmartin> what is my best option
[01:41] <SonikkuAmerica> You know how to create a .desktop file, right?
[01:41] <SonikkuAmerica> (If not, I can show you)
[01:41] <freakingmartin> I dont think so
[01:41] <SonikkuAmerica> Step 1: Open up a text editor (Leafpad in Lubuntu, I think)
[01:42] <freakingmartin> done
[01:42] <freakingmartin> Next step?
[01:42] <SonikkuAmerica> Step 2: Gimme a second... :)
[01:43] <freakingmartin> lol okay :)
[01:44] <SonikkuAmerica> Step 2B: http://paste.ubuntu.com/5882747/ <<< Copy the template I wrote up into your file
[01:44] <freakingmartin> Done
[01:45] <SonikkuAmerica> Step 3: Set your Name and GenericName to Minecraft (or whatever)
[01:45] <SonikkuAmerica> (by typing it after the = sign)
[01:46] <freakingmartin> do i put a space after the = sign?
[01:46] <SonikkuAmerica> No
[01:46] <freakingmartin> ok
[01:46] <freakingmartin> done
[01:47] <SonikkuAmerica> Step 4: Set your Exec to "java -jar /path/to/your/jar/file.jar" (without the quotes, substituting in for the actual path to the .jar file)
[01:48] <freakingmartin> done
[01:49] <SonikkuAmerica> Step 5 (optional): Set a comment for your .desktop file (it will appear in a tool tip on mouse over)
[01:49] <SonikkuAmerica> If you don't wish to add a comment, delete the line.
[01:49] <freakingmartin> i added a comment
[01:50] <SonikkuAmerica> Step 6: We don't need to specify a filetype, so delete the "Type=" line.
[01:50] <freakingmartin> removed
[01:51] <SonikkuAmerica> Step 7 (optional): Set Terminal to true if you want to see debugging output for running the desktop command. Otherwise, leave it false.
[01:52] <freakingmartin> ok\
[01:52] <freakingmartin> ok
[01:53] <SonikkuAmerica> Step 8: Set the path of the icon you want displayed on the appropriate line, unless you're fine with seeing the generic "file" icon.
[01:54] <freakingmartin> done
[01:54] <freakingmartin> i set a png
[01:55] <SonikkuAmerica> A portable net graphic should be fine :)
[01:55] <SonikkuAmerica> Step 9: Set StartupNotify to true if you want to see a notification that your program started; if not, delete that line or set it to flase.
[01:55] <SonikkuAmerica> *false even
[01:56] <freakingmartin> line deleted
[01:56] <SonikkuAmerica> Now save your file in ~/Desktop/ as <whatever>.desktop
[01:57] <freakingmartin> done
[01:57] <freakingmartin> i see my shortcut
[01:58] <SonikkuAmerica> Now close the Leafpad window and double-click your now shortcut.
[01:58] <SonikkuAmerica> s/now/new
[01:58] <freakingmartin> nothing happen
[01:59] <freakingmartin> teamviewer maybe?
[01:59] <SonikkuAmerica> Nothing happened? Hmm... Try executing your .jar in a terminal: [ java -jar /path/to/your/jar/file.jar ] and pastebin whatever errors it comes up with.
[02:00] <SonikkuAmerica> !pastebinit
[02:01] <freakingmartin> bash: [: -jar: binary operator expected
[02:02] <SonikkuAmerica> You may wish to check this article out too: http://www.webupd8.org/2013/04/easily-install-minecraft-in-ubuntu-via.html
[02:03] <SonikkuAmerica> However, I dunno whether or not it will re-download the whole thing - you do run that risk.
[02:03] <freakingmartin> I can run minecraft jar by itself but i cant get it to open with a shortcut
[02:04] <SonikkuAmerica> How do you run the jar by itself usually?
[02:05] <freakingmartin> if i run it through terminal [ java -jar /home/martin/KeiNettLauncher.jar ] it will work... if i open jar with OpenJDK it will work
[02:06] <freakingmartin> I can't get my shortcut to run the jar
[02:06] <SonikkuAmerica> freakingmartin: Try re-opening the .desktop file and replacing "java" with "/usr/bin/java"
[02:08] <freakingmartin> so it should look like this right?  Exec=/usr/bin/java -jar /home/martin/KeiNettLauncher.jar
[02:08] <SonikkuAmerica> Yes
[02:08] <freakingmartin> done
[02:08] <SonikkuAmerica> Now give it another shot
[02:09] <freakingmartin> still doesnt work. when i double click nothing happens, when i right click and open nothing happens also
[02:10] <SonikkuAmerica> Hmm... the other thing I can think of is running [ chmod +x ~/Desktop/<desktopfile>.desktop ] in a terminal and trying again.
[02:10] <SonikkuAmerica> (That would give it executable permissions)
[02:12] <freakingmartin> i run it like this chmod +x ~/Desktop/<Minecraft>.desktop
[02:12] <freakingmartin> this is what it gave me           bash: Minecraft: No such file or directory
[02:13] <SonikkuAmerica> freakingmartin: Leave out the < > (unless they're actually in the filename) :)
[02:13] <freakingmartin> lol ok
[02:14] <freakingmartin> i got this : chmod: cannot access ‘/home/martin/Desktop/Minecraft.desktop’: No such file or directory
[02:15] <SonikkuAmerica> freakingmartin: You *did* put it in your Desktop folder, right?
[02:16] <freakingmartin> yes
[02:16] <SonikkuAmerica> And it's called Minecraft.desktop (capital M and all, right)?
[02:16] <freakingmartin> Yes
[02:16] <SonikkuAmerica> Run [ ls ~/Desktop/ ]
[02:17] <SonikkuAmerica> (Anything in [ ] means it goes in terminal)
[02:17] <freakingmartin> Hold up let me check if it has .desktop
[02:18] <freakingmartin> now let me run [ ls ~/Desktop/ ]
[02:19] <freakingmartin> this is what i got "KeiNett Launcher               Minecraft 1.6.1 Launcher (Mac OS X & Linux).zip
[02:19] <freakingmartin> Minecraft 1.6.1  Launcher.jar  MInecraft.desktop
[02:19] <freakingmartin> "
[02:22] <SonikkuAmerica> So it's there, but the computer is having nothing to do with it.
[02:22] <holstein> why not launch it from the terminal? thats what you downloaded
[02:23] <freakingmartin> I like to have a shortcut with a stylish icon on my desktop (like windows)
[02:24] <SonikkuAmerica> freakingmartin: Just for a frame of reference, pastebin the content of the .desktop file we created
[02:25] <freakingmartin> syntax Plain text?
[02:26] <SonikkuAmerica> Yeah
[02:26] <SonikkuAmerica> We don't have any HTML content we need to parse, I don't think :)
[02:26] <freakingmartin> http://paste.ubuntu.com/5882819/
[02:26] <holstein> you could use a more "windows-like" desktop environment.. that allows for making launchers more simply
[02:27] <freakingmartin> desktop environment
[02:28] <freakingmartin> i corrected every thing and now when i run "chmod +x ~/Desktop/<desktopfile>.desktop" nothing happens nether
[02:29] <SonikkuAmerica> holstein: I thought LXDE *was* a more "Windows-like DE"
[02:29] <holstein> nothing in LXDE promises, "make whatever launchers you want with the click of a button"
[02:30] <SonikkuAmerica> holstein: I beg to differ, isn't there a "Create Launcher" option in the LXDE right-click menu?
[02:30] <freakingmartin> i see
[02:30] <holstein> SonikkuAmerica: thats what freakingmartin wants
[02:31] <holstein> a launcher to click on for the application to start
[02:31] <holstein> with a pretty icon
[02:31] <holstein> just like in windows
[02:31] <freakingmartin> :3
[02:31] <SonikkuAmerica> holstein: There *is* alacarte, but I dunno what it depends on.
[02:32] <holstein> thats what i thought.. right click, create a launcher
[02:32] <holstein> but, i suggested that last time freakingmartin was here
[02:32] <SonikkuAmerica> One still has to point it to the right place and all
[02:32] <holstein> you can say "run in terminal
[02:32] <holstein> and run the same command
[02:33] <freakingmartin> i can say that
[02:33] <holstein> i think its a checkbox
[02:34] <holstein> you use java -jar filename.jar and "run in terminal"
[02:36] <freakingmartin> k did that
[02:36] <holstein> freakingmartin: enjoy!
[02:36] <freakingmartin> never said it worked
[02:36] <freakingmartin> lol
[02:37] <holstein> freakingmartin: ok.. just share any relevant information
[02:37] <freakingmartin> Ok after all this chatting, my body is tired.
[02:37] <freakingmartin> I shall sleep Zzzz
[02:38] <holstein> freakingmartin: if you use the *exact* command that works in the terminal, and launch it in the terminal from the shortcut, it should work
[02:38] <holstein> otherwise, share errors
[02:38] <holstein> or, we'll see you when you wake
[02:38] <freakingmartin> hold up whats the command for terminal
[02:38] <holstein> freakingmartin: the one that you used, that works
[02:38] <freakingmartin> i forgot what it waws
[02:38] <freakingmartin> was
[02:38] <holstein> java -jar filename.jar ...replacing filename with the one you have
[02:39] <holstein>  /path/to/application.jar
[02:39] <holstein> java -jar /home/freakingmartin/minecraft.jar or whatever
[02:40] <freakingmartin> k do i check Execute in terminal emulatr
[02:41] <freakingmartin> emulator
[02:41] <holstein> freakingmartin: thats what i would do, then it will run the *exact* command that you just ran, and tested, in the terminal.. by running it, again, in a terminal.. which just worked
[02:42] <freakingmartin> it works in terminal, but it doesnt work when i double click on the shortcut
[02:42] <holstein> freakingmartin: sure.. just share how it "doesnt work"
[02:42] <holstein> and, double check the command you gave the shortcut
[02:42] <freakingmartin> i triple checked
[02:42] <holstein> freakingmartin: ok
[02:42] <holstein> freakingmartin: so, whats the error?
[02:43] <freakingmartin> there is no error it just does not run anything
[02:43] <freakingmartin> lol
[02:43] <holstein> freakingmartin: lol?
[02:43] <freakingmartin> i hate shortcuts
[02:43] <holstein> freakingmartin: whast funny?
[02:43] <holstein> freakingmartin: i dont use them
[02:44] <holstein> freakingmartin: paste the command here
[02:44] <freakingmartin> java -jar /home/martin/KeiNettLauncher.jar
[02:44] <holstein> freakingmartin: make a new shortcut
[02:44] <freakingmartin> again?
[02:44] <holstein> yes
[02:44] <holstein> if that doesnt work, then i have no idea
[02:45] <freakingmartin> I have an idea.. get a new computer
[02:45] <holstein> or, just lanuch from the terminal
[02:45] <freakingmartin> i think i'm done with shortcuts
[02:45] <holstein> thats what you downloaded
[02:45] <holstein> an application to launch from the terminal
[02:46] <SonikkuAmerica> freakingmartin: One of the reasons why I only test Lubuntu and don't use it full-time :)
[02:46] <freakingmartin> :-*
[02:46] <holstein> LXDE is minimal
[02:46] <freakingmartin> But lubuntu is sooo fast and it runs great
[02:46] <freakingmartin> on my computer
[02:46] <holstein> its not really made for adding a lot to it like that.. though, i have added those shortcuts to XFCE no problem
[02:47] <holstein> freakingmartin: i personally dont see how this negates the experience you are having
[02:47] <holstein> its still fast
[02:47] <freakingmartin> may you teamviewer and remotely help me please
[02:47] <holstein> who is you?
[02:47] <holstein> this is not that kind of support
[02:47] <freakingmartin> any one that can help  me
[02:48] <holstein> i would ask the maintainer of that pacakage how you are supposed to launch it
[02:48] <freakingmartin> i thought you were my friend :( lol jk
[03:05] <anne> hello, can someone help me with watchdog? I set the ping at 8.8.8.8, but watchdog reboot my sys at startup. I use a wifi key and It needs more than a minute to log in to the net
[03:15] <SonikkuAmerica> anne: How are you able to connect to the Internet if you're stuck in a bootloop?
[03:17] <anne> now? another pc :) on lubuntu? rewriting the distro from the beginning
[03:25] <SonikkuAmerica> anne: I would've said pastebin your [ dmesg ] output, but if you're reinstalling that's out the windows.
[03:25] <SonikkuAmerica> *only 1 window
[03:29] <anne> also I cant pastebin nothing, the sistem keep rebooting at startup... no time to do anything.
[03:29] <anne> it's something like this
[03:29] <anne> http://www.raspberrypi.org/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?f=30&t=20149
[03:30] <anne> I tried adding watchdog last week, but something is broken in watchdog (On the PI only) where ping doesn't work, so you end up with a constant reboot because watchdog starts up at boot time. If you want to experiment with watchdog first edit  Code: Select all     sudo nano /etc/default/watchdog  and tell watchdog not to start at boot. I haven't tried watchdog with the latest firmware, so not sure if the issue has been fixed, but doubt 
[03:46] <SonikkuAmerica> anne: You may wish to check the bash script written out the comment by sdjf
[04:04] <SonikkuAmerica> Good evening, jono, my good sir.
[04:04] <jono> hi SonikkuAmerica
[04:06] <SonikkuAmerica> What brings you to our neck of the woods?
[04:06] <anne> mumble, 'll try thank you
[04:08] <SonikkuAmerica> That's probably a stupid question, you being the head of Ubuntu Community and all. :) I'd stay and chat more but here in the USA it's waxin' midnight (on the East Coast) So I must say goodbye!
[05:01] <superman_> is there an estimate on how many people are currently using Lubuntu?
[06:08] <James0r> just installed Lubuntu 13.04 and liking it. i'm a new linux user and i found it pretty easy to use so far. it's simple but fast and that's what i was going for.
[06:09] <James0r> one thing i noticed though is that during the installation process i thought it mentioned that XChat was pre-installed but i couldn't find it once i got it going
[06:10] <James0r> just as easy to download via apt-get but just something i noticed
[06:11] <Unit193> Nope, xchat isn't pre-installed with the system.
[06:59] <superman_> hello, i'm a noob and never used Sylpheed before, can someone help me set up an account on it? thanks
[08:21] <superman_> when using lubuntu's sylpheed with pop3 mail does the client delete my mail stored on the mail server, if it does how to i set the pop3 to only copy the mails and not delete it? thanks
[09:52] <Antisober552> hi every time I lose WiFi my computer completely freezes

[20:56] <Guest81466> https://prism-break.org/
[20:57] <Guest81466> I'm assuming this isn't an issue with lubuntu as it doesn't use unity?
[20:57] <Guest81466> ...or other reasons?
[21:06] <ianorlin> what part of the website?
