[00:03] Guest77117: what version of lubuntu are you using? === zz is now known as Guest83327 [01:08] hello [01:10] i need help with installation. its telling me "unable to find medium with live file system" [01:11] 13.04 [01:12] hello, i was just here. guest number simething [07:50] big problemo: USB devices mount read-only. Can't save files to usb unless i open a root window in pmanfm [07:50] The mounting subsystem is not mounting usb devices with write access. [07:52] Maybe cause i formatted my USB with "sudo gparted"??? Think that would remove user write permission? [07:55] Don't worry, i think the problem is the way i formatted it. Next time i'll format with gksudo. [07:55] using gparted from the menu, instead of 'sudo gparted'. Bye [09:23] hey guys [09:24] what is the name of a bandwidth graph that can be used as an applet [09:24] for Lxde [09:24] ? [11:03] what if lubuntu is too heavy for a (very old) comp ? is there something lighter? i mean something in between lubuntu and those microdistros? [11:04] hello ! [11:04] wubbie yes there is [11:04] but it's not official [11:04] what are the specs of your machine? [11:05] wubbie ?? are you still here? [11:06] am unable to see them now... but i guess something a bit lighter than lubuntu should do it... [11:06] wubbie I know two distros which could fit for a very old computer [11:07] I am unsure if I can advertise for my spin here, if I can't we can talk privately. the spin is presented at the linuxvillage.net forum [11:07] do you think I can describe it right here? [11:07] i think we can go in ubuntu-offtopic [11:07] ok* [11:08] #ubuntu-offtopic [11:08] then I can click on it :D [11:08] ideal [11:08] idea [11:08] wubbie I invite you to #linuxvillage [15:05] hi [15:17] Does lubuntu offer steam support? I looked in the lubuntu package manager thing and couldn't find "steam". [15:21] lokote_jones: what kind version lubuntu? [15:22] you can install steam from steam site [16:02] !steam | lokote_jones [16:02] lokote_jones: Valve have officially announced that they are developing Steam and are working with !ubuntu during their development, see http://blogs.valvesoftware.com/linux/steamd-penguins/ for further details, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Valve for install instructions, you can also join #ubuntu-steam for discussion. [16:02] lubuntu *is* ubuntu, and steam offeres ubuntu support [16:03] hi again [16:03] phillw1 are you here? [16:54] Hello. can anybody tell me how to edit right click menu so that I could add option for a new text document? [17:07] ? [17:11] m_ ? [17:11] can anybody tell me how to edit right click menu so that I could add option for a new text document? [17:24] nobody? [17:51] !q [18:03] Hi, I just recently installed Lubuntu. Am I supposed to download the recommended updates? [18:04] that are popping up [18:05] somebody said something about only downloading security updates, but that's mostly what they are, right? [18:07] ummm I read something about no support in October with Lubuntu. What was that? [18:08] karen_ yes [18:08] karen_ which Lubuntu version are you using? [18:09] 12.04 [18:10] right, 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 one [18:10] or even longer [18:11] I have a cousin whose name is Karen, is that you nick or your name? :) [18:12] 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] usually it is easy, however it is always recommanded to backup your personal data (all your /home/karen) to another media before proceeding [18:13] When do you think the next one comes out? [18:13] in case of issue (power supply down during upgrade for instance) it is always a good idea to have a backup easy to restore [18:13] I think some time in October [18:14] oh so it's o.k. to wait a few months after that? [18:14] the code number will be 13.10, 13 stands for 2013 and 10 for October [18:14] a pair of months should be ok [18:14] karen_ are you from US? [18:15] 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] ok, I don't think my cousin lives it Utah, she is probably closer to the east coast [18:16] the versions 12.04 are rock solid you should not meet issues [18:16] she also has children who I never met so far [18:17] (I'm on the other side of the ocean) [18:17] Whoa, on the other side of the ocean! Thanks for the info and have a good day! [18:34] * ianorlin wants another external hard drive for backup [19:55] is there someone here involved in the Lxappeance program? I't like to have a chat about it and some bugs I found. I'd like to know if they have been pointed to [19:56] !info lxappearance [19:56] lxappearance (source: lxappearance): LXDE GTK+ theme switcher.
