franktmorgan | Hi! Can someone help me get Java working on my "Raring Ringtail" system? | 02:04 |
franktmorgan | I've posted my concern at the bottom of http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2161996 , but I still haven't gotten a response yet. | 02:06 |
franktmorgan | Anybody? =) | 02:07 |
LuvLinuxOS | can anyone point me in the right direction to finding a solution for large icons on the program menu? | 02:07 |
LuvLinuxOS | thanks | 02:07 |
LuvLinuxOS | franktmorgan: what jdk are you trying to install ? open or oracle? | 02:08 |
franktmorgan | I started out with OpenJDK, but I'm not sure anymore that it's reliable. Just tonight I thought I'd go with Oracle, but if I can get OpenJDK working, I'd settle for that. | 02:09 |
Captain_Phil | My Menu://applications/ window never loads, just says it is loading and never finishes | 02:09 |
Captain_Phil | Anyone have any idea what that is about? | 02:09 |
franktmorgan | I dunno. | 02:10 |
LuvLinuxOS | look here franktmorgan: http://thismagpie.blogspot.com/2012/07/installing-eclipse-juno-42-on-lubuntu.html | 02:11 |
franktmorgan | Thanks. | 02:11 |
LuvLinuxOS | you welcome | 02:11 |
LuvLinuxOS | you will have to purge the open jdk though | 02:12 |
franktmorgan | Already did that. Went to Synaptic and completely removed all eight of my OpenJDK packages. | 02:13 |
franktmorgan | So, Eclipse Juno 4.2 will enable me to use Java online? I was having problems with that. | 02:14 |
franktmorgan | LuvLinusOS I've gotta go. Thanks for the recommendation! I've got it bookmarked to go through the instructions tonight or tomorrow. | 02:22 |
Captain_Phil | LuvLinuxOS are you free to give me a hand? | 02:27 |
LuvLinuxOS | yes Captain_Phil | 02:57 |
LuvLinuxOS | what do you need? | 02:57 |
Captain_Phil | I am working from a fresh install | 03:22 |
Captain_Phil | When I open the file manager and click applications | 03:22 |
Captain_Phil | It says it is loading but never loads | 03:22 |
LuvLinuxOS | what version? | 03:31 |
LuvLinuxOS | os? | 03:32 |
Captain_Phil | sorry. lubunto | 03:38 |
Captain_Phil | the newest one distro | 03:38 |
LuvLinuxOS | 13.04 have you install display drivers? | 03:40 |
Captain_Phil | yes | 03:43 |
Captain_Phil | Menu://applications/ is the location not loading | 03:43 |
LuvLinuxOS | have you tried reinstall pcmanfm manually? | 03:48 |
LuvLinuxOS | what display driver did you install? | 03:49 |
Captain_Phil | I guess the default one, I am going to see if I can find a non generic one | 03:55 |
LuvLinuxOS | open the terminal and type lspci | grep VGA | 04:07 |
LuvLinuxOS | this will tell you what type of display card you have then you | 04:08 |
LuvLinuxOS | can search the net for the steps to insall | 04:08 |
LuvLinuxOS | normally will be found in ubuntu wiki pages | 04:08 |
Captain_Phil | Intel Corporation 2nd genrationn core proces or family intergrated graphics contreols (rev 09) | 04:14 |

Captain_Phil | I really should keep my join and leave messeges on | 04:39 |
amcsi_work | hi | 11:26 |
amcsi_work | why is it that Lubuntu is one of the lowest PC requirement Ubuntu-bases distros, but Windows 98 still has a lower requirement by far? (16MB of RAM) | 11:30 |
amcsi_work | now really | 11:32 |
tsimpson | and MS DOS is has even lower requirements, doesn't even require a 32bit processor | 12:31 |
tsimpson | but, is it actually useful today? | 12:31 |
amcsi_work | tsimpson, no, but Windows 98 is | 12:32 |
waykool99 | i just heard in Ubuntu IRC, Lubuntu might be a good replacement for U Studio v10.04.3 LTS 64 bit? | 12:32 |
tsimpson | amcsi_work: really? you can install modern web browsers and office suites on it? | 12:33 |
amcsi_work | I mean, it has a full gui and everything | 12:33 |
waykool99 | i'm an internet DJ -and- do tons of intense audio production w/Recording studio stuff | 12:33 |
amcsi_work | tsimpson, that may not have been the case since about 3 years ago. | 12:34 |
tsimpson | amcsi_work: the base OS doesn't need many resources, what people actually use their systems for does | 12:34 |
waykool99 | like idjc.sourceforge.net, spend about 30 hours a week in Audacity, Sound Converter, Ardour gtk etc etc w/Gnome 2. | 12:35 |
waykool99 | might Lubuntu be a good alternative? (since my ubuntu studio v10.04.3 LTS 64 bit started a hairline crack, unrepairable) | 12:36 |
waykool99 | *DVD r | 12:36 |
amcsi_work | tsimpson, I've compared win98 and Damn Small Linux on the same P3 800MHz computer before and browsing the internet was still a lot faster on Windows 98. I just don't get it how Windows 98 is faster even though it can seemingly do more than Damn Small Linux does. | 12:37 |
amcsi_work | I do know for a fact though that Win98 is very buggy. Would thta be the sole trade-off? | 12:37 |
tsimpson | it's probably faster because the browser is so dumb | 12:37 |
waykool99 | have DSL CD R's. i love it, but studio programs wont work in it :( | 12:37 |
amcsi_work | tsimpson, no. I was using the latest Opera at that time while DSL was using an old Firefox 2 | 12:38 |
tsimpson | I've no idea then, I haven't used '98 in over a decade | 12:39 |
waykool99 | i've tried Desktop, Kubuntu. DSL, xyzUbuntu bla bla. none compares to Studio | 12:39 |
waykool99 | wish Knoppix v7.0 worked. but Klaus Knopper doesn't recommend installing it | 12:39 |
amcsi_work | :/ | 12:40 |
waykool99 | i'd kill for a download ISO of studio v10.04.3 LTS 64 bit :( | 12:41 |
waykool99 | its about 1.7 GB ISO | 12:41 |
waykool99 | my DVD-R started with a small crack. in a couple weeks, crack spread to the outer edge | 12:43 |
waykool99 | tried "dvdisaster" for 2 hours. couldn't recover the DVD | 12:44 |
user8930 | What's wrong with the desktop in 13.04? It won't allow me to drag icons to the desktop from /usr/share/applications. | 15:14 |
user8930 | I should be able to drag n drop .desktop files but it's refusing. | 15:14 |
user8930 | why do they keep botching the desktop...why? | 15:15 |
user8930 | I can only drag a maximum of 12 icons then it refuses any more. | 15:21 |
user8930 | i'll logout and see if it refreshes the desktop. brb | 15:22 |
user8930 | Re-arranging the desktop icons seems to have fixed the problem | 15:29 |
user8930 | Still a bug though, when you drag a bunch of icons onto the desktop it suddenly refuses to accept more until you re-arrange the desktop. Now i'm getting "flying" desktop icons, a ghost icon moves across the screen | 15:32 |
user8930 | Drag 20 or 30 icons onto the desktop and see what i mean | 15:33 |
user8930 | happy bug fixing | 15:35 |
clifter | Is this the right place for questions about LXDE? | 18:08 |
Hinatschka | clifter: as long as you run it under Lubuntu yes, I guess ;) | 18:09 |
clifter | Hinatshka: Ok thanks | 18:19 |
clifter | Hinatschka: Thanks | 18:19 |
