| R0b0t1 | Hi, I have a dualscreen setup, and I have like, two nested desktops | 04:55 |
|---|---|---|
| R0b0t1 | If I try to set background, the screens will set their backgrounds, but there is a middle portion which seems to be another desktop | 04:56 |
| R0b0t1 | it actually behaves differently, as in, if I set show menus provided by WM | 04:56 |

| semitones | hello! | 15:12 |
| semitones | whenever i login, I get a "system policy prevents changing wireless networks" message or similar. What can I do to login to wifi networks without having to put in my password? | 15:12 |
| holstein | semitones: well, you can always just authenticate each time.. but let me find the link i used.. | 15:13 |
| semitones | holstein, thanks! It's more a ease-of-use improvement... no other OS I use asks for a password before connecting to wifi | 15:14 |
| holstein | well, its no "improvement" at all.. its a change | 15:16 |
| holstein | semitones: http://paste.ubuntu.com/6214179/ is what i did, though, i cant find my original source | 15:16 |
| semitones | it makes it easier for me to use, so I consider it an improvement. But there are cases where it might be better to ask the password before connecting to wifi, so I see what you mean, i think? | 15:18 |
| holstein | semitones: consider it what you like, but its no improvement, friend.. its a preference | 15:20 |
| holstein | semitones: the above change is the way i chagne that.. i suggest to the developers of a few distros about how to change that, and why i think its more "proper".. but, its no improvment.. its a change | 15:20 |
| holstein | semitones: i just did it on this machine, because i hadnt gotten around to changing it yet :) | 15:21 |
| semitones | lol :) yeah that's true. It's just a change, but it's what works best for me. | 15:23 |
| andreiiar | Hello. I fire this in one go. I want a portable lubuntu on my usb stick 16GB. Problem is persistence is max 4gb with the install tools. I tried to install normally but I had problems switching from my laptop to a normal screen monitor. I fixed the resolution problem but it started not working on other computers after 2 days. Is there some script to detect my hardware at every boot like persitence | 15:49 |
| andreiiar | installs does? | 15:49 |
| phillw | andreiiar: you could partition up the 8 GB as ext4 and then have it automounted via fstab and call it "docs" or "my stuff" to store all 'your stuff' in ? | 17:05 |

| melodie | hi | 21:44 |
| phillw | hi melodie | 21:46 |
| melodie | hello phillw! | 21:47 |
| melodie | how are you? :) | 21:47 |
| phillw | I'm well, getting prepped for tomorrow :) | 21:47 |
| melodie | prepared? | 21:47 |
| phillw | yes. | 21:47 |
| melodie | I am being doing special tests with zram in my ubuntu openbox remix updated, in virtualbox, and I have already uploaded a series of screenshots | 21:48 |
| melodie | phillw I don't know yet how to deal with the blueprint place, you will need to explain that to me as soon as possible | 21:49 |
| melodie | not now though :) | 21:49 |
| phillw | melodie: I updated bug 1235525 | 21:49 |
| ubottu | bug 1235525 in linux (Ubuntu Saucy) "error on sudo parted -l" [Medium,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1235525 | 21:49 |
| melodie | phillw yes? I have not followed that one bug, just saw a mail about it on the ml | 21:50 |

| melodie | phillw ok, "parted -l" man: | 21:52 |
| melodie | -l, --list | 21:52 |
| melodie | lists partition layout on all block devices | 21:52 |
| melodie | I see | 21:52 |
| melodie | of course it's only a block device | 21:53 |
| phillw | so, it is a phantom bug, parted is doing exactly as it should. | 21:53 |
| phillw | it could never partition up a zram area! | 21:53 |
| melodie | lol | 21:54 |
| melodie | phillw … | 21:55 |
| melodie | rotfl! | 21:55 |
| melodie | it's not a bug. (me nods). it's a feature ! :D | 21:55 |
| phillw | indeed... it just dawned on me when I was thinking of something else... | 21:55 |
| melodie | :'-D | 21:55 |
| phillw | I just hope Joe also accepts it was a case of not being able to see the forest for the trees. | 21:56 |

| mapps | hi guys - im trying to booty off a live cd on an old machine..tried lubuntu so far and it just goes to a command prompt..i guess some issue with the gfx drivers? | 23:46 |
| Unit193 | Try adding nomodeset to the boot options. | 23:46 |
| Unit193 | !nomodeset | 23:46 |
| ubottu | A common kernel (boot)parameter is nomodeset, which is needed for some graphic cards that otherwise boot into a black screen or show corrupted splash screen. See http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1613132 on how to use this parameter | 23:46 |
| mapps | aha | 23:47 |
| mapps | Thanks pal | 23:47 |
| Unit193 | Sure. | 23:48 |
| mapps | i dont get a black screen but it goes to command could be same? | 23:48 |
| mapps | damn annoying | 23:48 |
| Unit193 | You should try running startlubuntu there, or sudo service lightdm start | 23:48 |
| mapps | one more thing..it wouldnt make a difference using lubuntu or xubuntu/ubuntu would it? i assume all would be same due to gfx issue | 23:48 |
| mapps | aha will try everything..thanks | 23:48 |
| mapps | ah just stops on a blinking cursor afters service lightdm start | 23:58 |
