[00:17] <mapps> hi
[00:17] <mapps> hmm
[01:11] <hydro> after installing lubuntu and rebooting, i'm taking to a boot screen where i can select what i want to boot of off and selecting anything just restarts the computer
[01:11] <hydro> this happened to me once before and i managed to fix it by setting up a boot flag in my root partition
[01:12] <hydro> this time i let the lubuntu installer set up my partitions automatically, and there already seems to be a boot flag in the root partition
[01:13] <hydro> when i open gparted i get an error "/dev/sdb contains GPT signatures, indicating that it has a GPT table.  However, it does not have a valid fake msdos partition table, as it should.  Perhaps it was corrupted -- possibly by a program that doesn't understand GPT partition tables.  Or perhaps you deleted the GPT table, and are now using an msdos partition table.  Is this a GPT partition table?"
[02:57] <Guest87294> how do i install flash?
[02:59] <Unit193> Install lubuntu-restricted-extras, which should install adobe-flashplugin or flashplugin-installer.
[03:00] <Guest87294> how big is it in size
[03:00] <Guest87294> lubuntu-restricted-extras?
[03:01] <Unit193> It depends on several packages, but not too bad.
[04:44] <testerer> problem:  no wifi in lubuntu 13.  chipset Ralink 2571
[04:44] <testerer> lsusb reveals my wifi dongle is connected.
[04:44] <testerer> I want to connect WiFi via the command line (I'
[04:46] <testerer> I did the following:  ifconfig wlan0 up  (followed by)  iwconfig wlan0 ssid xxxxxxx key yyyyyy (followed by) dhclient wlan0
[04:46] <testerer> no go.
[04:47] <testerer> That's the usual process to get WiFi up and running from terminal isn't it?  Not working.  Faulty ralink driver??
[04:49] <testerer> I know my WiFi works with an older kernel/distro cause I was using it.  But it fails in Lubuntu 13.
[05:26] <testerer> Looks like the Lubuntu developers botched the USB WiFi yet again...
[05:26] <bioterror> what do you mean?
[05:26] <testerer> 2 of my wifi dongles fail to connect
[05:27] <testerer> They certainly work with kernel 2.6.32.x
[05:27] <bioterror> 2.6. :o
[05:28] <testerer> But they don't work in Lubuntu raring.
[05:28] <testerer> the drivers are certainly there. I checked with lsmod
[05:29] <testerer> rt2500usb and rt2x00usb
[05:29] <testerer> I'm thinking there's a fault somewhere with udev
[05:31] <testerer> maybe i need to make a new udev rule or something?
[05:33] <testerer> I had a similar problem recently with my USB scanner not working.  Know how i fixed it?
[05:34] <testerer> I added a new rule to:   /lib/udev/rules.d/40-libsane.rules
[05:34] <testerer> Now the scanner is detected and works fine.
[05:34] <testerer> You think my USB WiFi may have a similar solution?
[05:46] <testerer> I may have to downgrade my lubuntu/ubuntu version.. Never mind. Bye
[08:35] <tux_> which version should i get?
[08:55] <hateball> tux_: Of what?
[09:00] <tux_> lubuntu
[09:22] <tux_> why does Debian-LXDE use half the memory than lubuntu?
[09:24] <tux_> i was shocked it only used around 50MB on boot, it is almost close to Slitaz which uses less than 30MB on boot, both distros use LXDE
[09:24] <tux_> why does lubuntu seem bloated in comparison?
[10:20] <testerer> Lubuntu 13.04 is bugged to the max.   Won't apt-get update security.   GPG key errors
[10:20] <testerer> I'm using the default installation to apt-get update and the repos are broken..damnit
[10:21] <testerer> Should i erase the entire sources.list file and change repos?
[10:25] <testerer> GPG error:  http://security.ubuntu.com raring-security Release The following signatures were invalid:  BADSIG <lengthy keycode>
[10:25] <testerer> Encountered a section with no package:  header
[10:26] <testerer> Does everyone else get this problem or did I do something wrong?
[10:26] <testerer> I should mention I installed using the alternate .iso
[10:28] <testerer> lubuntu-13.04-alternate-i386.iso
[10:29] <testerer> Also the kernel wifi driver set hardware encyrption ON by default causing my wifi to crash...Hardware encyption should be off
[10:30] <testerer> and iwconfig has to power off the wifi unit first before it works:  iwconfig wlan0 power off
[10:31] <testerer> A new release, a new pile of bugs....
[11:02] <testerer> ok i fixed it partially and can apt-get upgrade...hoping fore the best..
[11:03] <testerer> i might have had a corrupt installation either from CD or lost/corrupt packets from Wifi
[11:03] <testerer> moving on..
[11:28] <testerer> <back.  I fixed my wifi and apt-get. (after much command lining) :-p   Works fine now
[11:30] <testerer> mark this as problem solved :- )
[11:31] <testerer> bye
[12:30] <holycrapforcrap> hi, just tried to install lubuntu 13.04 i368 desktop on an old omnibook x3, installer behaves completely strange. not like it should = not like its covered on the help page. i'll try for the alternate installer now which would have been the better option anyway. now there is the same problem i always end up - dead outdated links on the help pages, or outdated infos
[12:31] <holycrapforcrap> anyone out there who can link me to the official alternate install iso?
[12:31] <holycrapforcrap> would be highly appreciated
[12:31] <Unit193> I'd check the md5sum and burn.
[12:31] <Unit193> http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/lubuntu/releases/13.04/release/
[12:32] <holycrapforcrap> great - thax a heap!
[12:32] <holycrapforcrap> +n
[13:08] <theos> hi. how do i turn on/off system sounds? like alert/beeps etc
[13:09] <theos> i do have iNet/EnableEventSounds=1 iNet/EnableInputFeedbackSounds=1
[14:45] <superman_> how do i add a program to start up?
[14:47] <theos> autostart file
[14:50] <superman_> ok thanks
[16:47] <javatexan> okay I have totally botched something and I cannot figure it out.  I am on a laptop, macbook pro.  I installed lm-sensors and something called TLP.  I purged macfanctld because I got tired of pegging the fans at max all the time.  Something is not right....fans run all the time and doesn't seem to drop temp below....OUCH! on legs.  Help?
[18:08] <javatexan> got it...thanks

[22:45] <symptom> hey, does someone know how i theme lightdm-gtk? (theres a conf file where i need to specify a gtk-theme but i dont know where to put the theme)
[22:46] <Unit193> /usr/share/themes/
[23:13] <testerer> There should be way more chatters here since lubuntu is the most aweseme OS ;-)
[23:13] <testerer> except for a wee problem:
[23:14] <testerer> sudoers is not accepting this command:  user1 ALL=NOPASSWD: /usr/bin/shutdown -h now
[23:15] <testerer> I want to allow "shutdown" to be run as root (or sudo without having to provide a password).
[23:26] <Unit193> I'd assume lxsession-logout doesn't count.
[23:28] <testerer> Unit193..i deleted lxde/openbox/lightdm and using icewm
[23:28] <testerer> that's why i need a custom shutdown script or sudoers permission to root shutdown
[23:29] <testerer> but sudoers refuses to make "shutdown" execute as admin
[23:29] <Unit193> And if you drop " -h now"?
[23:29] <Unit193> unit193 ALL = NOPASSWD: /usr/sbin/hddtemp
[23:30] <Unit193> Did you happen to read /etc/sudoers.d/README ?
[23:37] <testerer> ok i'll give that a try
