toshiba-user3933big problemo:  USB devices mount read-only.   Can't save files to usb unless i open a root window in pmanfm07:50
toshiba-user3933The mounting subsystem is not mounting usb devices with write access.07:50
toshiba-user3933Maybe cause i formatted my USB with "sudo gparted"???  Think that would remove user write permission?07:52
toshiba-user3933Don't worry, i think the problem is the way i formatted it. Next time i'll format with gksudo.07:55
toshiba-user3933using gparted from the menu, instead of 'sudo gparted'.  Bye07:55

melodiewubbie I know two distros which could fit for a very old computer11:06

karen_Hi, I just recently installed Lubuntu. Am I supposed to download the recommended updates?18:03
karen_that are popping up18:04
karen_somebody said something about only downloading security updates, but that's mostly what they are, right?18:05
karen_ummm I read something about no support in October with Lubuntu. What was that?18:07
melodiekaren_ yes18:08
melodiekaren_ which Lubuntu version are you using?18:08
karen_12.0418:09
melodieright, the 12.04 is maintained during 9 months, however you can wait until one or two months after the official release of next Lubuntu before switching to the new one18:10
melodieor even longer18:10
melodieI have a cousin whose name is Karen, is that you nick or your name? :)18:11
karen_my real name.  Will I get a notice when the next Lubuntu is out, and will it be easy to transfer over to?18:12
melodieusually it is easy, however it is always recommanded to backup your personal data (all your /home/karen) to another media before proceeding18:12
karen_When do you think the next one comes out?18:13
melodiein case of issue (power supply down during upgrade for instance) it is always a good idea to have a backup easy to restore18:13
melodieI think some time in October18:13
karen_oh   so it's o.k. to wait a few months after that?18:14
melodiethe code number will be 13.10, 13 stands for 2013 and 10 for October18:14
melodiea pair of months should be ok18:14
melodiekaren_ are you from US?18:14
karen_o.k. I'll keep that in mind. So, I'm going to download any updates that pop up, and I'll be fine, right?  Yes, I live in Utah.18:15
melodieok, I don't think my cousin lives it Utah, she is probably closer to the east coast18:15
melodiethe versions 12.04 are rock solid you should not meet issues18:16
melodieshe also has children who I never met so far18:16
melodie(I'm on the other side of the ocean)18:17
karen_Whoa, on the other side of the ocean! Thanks for the info and have a good day!18:17
* ianorlin wants another external hard drive for backup18:34
