phillw | jadestar: what version of lubuntu are you running? | 01:50 |
jadestar | lightweight ubuntu extended life edition or LXLE | 01:51 |
jadestar | based on lightweight ubuntu 12.06 | 01:52 |
phillw | jadestar: in that case http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1455877 should sort it out | 01:52 |
jadestar | nm | 01:52 |
jadestar | misnumbered | 01:52 |
jadestar | should be four hehe | 01:52 |
jadestar | y thank u phillw :> | 01:52 |
phillw | jadestar: it was close enough :) | 01:52 |
jadestar | i use openbox | 01:53 |
jadestar | L X L E has its own channel though | 01:53 |
phillw | afaik, the keyboard settings are done under the lxde settings, not by open box. open box only does the DE, not play with keyboards. | 01:55 |
jadestar | ah dhyanavadaha | 01:55 |
jadestar | or | 01:55 |
jadestar | uh | 01:55 |
jadestar | thank you | 01:56 |
katkisson | hi, I'm trying to watch a Hulu movie online and they say I need the newest version of Flashplayer. i thought that was downloaded when I installed Lubuntu a few days ago. | 02:59 |
phillw | !flash | 03:02 |
ubottu | To install Flash see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/Flash - See also !Restricted and !Gnash | 03:02 |
phillw | katkisson: ^^ | 03:02 |
katkisson | Hi, I was just in Ubuntu asking about Flash Player. I tried to go to Hulu online to watch a movie, and they said to install the latest version. Someone told me a command to put in terminal, but it didn't find that command. | 03:07 |
katkisson | o.k. I'll try that site right now. | 03:09 |
katkisson | Now, I see Adobe Flash Plug-in in Lubuntu software. Will that work/ | 03:12 |
katkisson | It says it's for Mozilla Firefox. That | 03:13 |
katkisson | fine. I downloaded that. | 03:14 |
katkisson | I don't have Java. Should i get that? | 03:16 |
katkisson | Just so you know. I found Flash Player Plug in in the Lubuntu software and downloaded it. It's works. I can watch Hulu movies now. Yeah! | 03:31 |
holstein | !flash | 03:31 |
ubottu | To install Flash see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/Flash - See also !Restricted and !Gnash | 03:31 |
holstein | should work fine.. | 03:31 |
katkisson | thanks! | 03:32 |

New2 | hi friends | 09:54 |
New2 | google gives Firefox $400 million per year to data mine your habits, i found this to help get rid of google from firefox http://www.leavegooglebehind.com/how-tos/how-to-eradicate-google-from-firefox/ | 09:54 |
New2 | "Firefox has a feature called “safe browsing” which reports information about your browsing to Google." | 09:56 |
New2 | oops wrong channel sorry lol | 09:56 |
jeepsy | i cannot login in the main account anymore. at first i thought problem was password even though i was quite sure i was doing it right. then i noticed that when i purposely put a wrong password i do get a wrong password message. instead when i put the good password, i dont get that message. i get a black screen for a sec and then back to login screen. what's going on? | 15:45 |
bioterror | ctrl+alt+f1 | 15:46 |
bioterror | login from the console | 15:46 |
bioterror | and you will be a little more smarter | 15:46 |
bioterror | if that works, then start-lubuntu or what was it | 15:46 |
bioterror | startlubuntu | 15:46 |
jeepsy | what do i type to login from the console? | 15:47 |
bioterror | Wed18:46 <bioterror> ctrl+alt+f1 | 15:48 |
bioterror | so? | 15:54 |
jeepsy | ok login works. but when i do startlubuntu it doesnt. i get something like "gtk warning cannot open display" and above iread many permission denied errors | 15:55 |
bioterror | and what's the last thing you have done before it went broken? | 15:55 |
jeepsy | nothing. updates i guess | 15:56 |
jeepsy | it's totally gotten me by surprise. how do you say "out of the blue" | 15:58 |
jeepsy | no reason i can think of | 15:58 |
jeepsy | any idea of what i should do? | 16:00 |
bioterror | be more specific | 16:02 |
jeepsy | i just used the computer regularly for regular stuff, libreoffice, mail, you know. all of a sudden i get this error | 16:02 |
jeepsy | what do you want to know? | 16:03 |
bioterror | the permissions, ofcourse | 16:05 |
bioterror | where you do not have permissions | 16:05 |
jeepsy | only thing i can think of that messed it up are the updates. but i guess that doesnt make much sense. updates solve bugs, they dont create them. i guess | 16:05 |
bioterror | :D | 16:05 |
jeepsy | //config if remember right | 16:06 |
bioterror | how naive | 16:06 |
jeepsy | i am a newbie :) | 16:07 |
jeepsy | how can i show you that output? | 16:07 |
jeepsy | i am now using the guest session which works fine | 16:07 |
bioterror | you're using the same computer with same installation | 16:08 |
bioterror | with guest account? | 16:08 |
jeepsy | yes | 16:08 |
Unit193 | So, move /home/username-here/.config/ to somewhere else and then try it. | 16:08 |
bioterror | yep | 16:08 |
Unit193 | Remove .cache/ too while you're at it, saved sessions can make a day fun. | 16:08 |
jeepsy | can you please tell me step by step (help for dummies) | 16:09 |
bioterror | login with that ctrl+alt+f1 | 16:09 |
bioterror | then | 16:09 |
bioterror | mv .config .config.bak | 16:09 |
bioterror | rm -rf .cache | 16:09 |
bioterror | you do not need to logout | 16:10 |
bioterror | now | 16:10 |
bioterror | you can just ctrl + alt + f1 | 16:10 |
jeepsy | ok will try that. but i have a little unxpected problem here (not with the computer) that i must take care of now. will do it later. thank you both for the help | 16:12 |
thor_ | Hi Please a link to the meeting log from yesterday | 16:37 |
