ianorlinI have checked the md5sum on two saucy 64 bit alt install disks both of which the self tests at the menu with teh disk returns a bad │00:08
ianorlin                   | md5sum for lubuntu software center and I checked the md5sum of the download is this two bad burns?00:08
phillwianorlin: try burning r e a l l y slow. The write LED will die long before the read one does.00:53
ianorlinI can't slow it down any more00:54
phillwianorlin: that is a problem I've had in the past. the easiest work round is to get a cd-RW (or dvd-RW). It forces the writer to slow down.01:04
phillwfor a usb stick, try http://www.pendrivelinux.com/multiboot-create-a-multiboot-usb-from-linux/01:05
ianorlinah01:06
phillwI recall my trying to tell my cd writer to run at 4X for the data burn, and it decided to gallop off at 48X.. needless to say, said CD was useless :)01:06
phillwI only have -RW medai now. stops the burners getting carried away with what they *think* they can do... this is no music CD :P01:08

ianorlindoesn't help that I have like 100 cd-rs01:09
TrabbleI'm running lubuntu (currently LiveCD, but if I confirm my HDD isn't trashed I'll install it on there) on a macbook, and can't figure out how to get it to right click01:10
Trabbleany suggestions on either how to do it or where to change the settings?01:10
phillwianorlin: try a different burner programme .. xfburn is pretty god, but there are others that may be able to run the slow burn,,, Brassero may be better for you. It really is find the one that best supports you cd/dvd writer01:14
phillwTrabble:with 13.10?01:14
Trabbleyes01:18
Trabbleit's an older macbook, only has a single button01:18
Trabblein OSX I would hold applekey+click and it was right click01:18
TrabbleI tried that, I tried alt, and i tried ctrl, none worked01:18
phillwTrabble: which version of lubuntu are you trying to install? We have several for macs..01:19
Trabble13.10+mac01:19
phillwTrabble: can you give me the model number so that I go search? (I am not familar with mac books, but am familiar with looking up FAQ's for people who have them).01:22
TrabbleMacbook 2-101:22
Trabblealso called the "Late 2006 macbook"01:22
Trabblebut I think ubuntu calls it Macbook 2-101:22
phillwTrabble: when you said a bit old... https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MacBook2-101:24
Trabble;) I'm well aware. however, it's a supported processor and has a RAM bump. wifi works, sound works...only problem I'm having is the right click issue01:25
Trabblewhen I used ubuntu back in the day (2007 or 08 I htink this was) I know there was some ways to modify right click stuff but it was gnome01:25

Trabbletook me a few hours to get to this point. it wouldn't boot off of my USB drive, I had to go find some blank DVDs, and the first one wasn't +mac so it wouldnt' boot off of that either.01:28
Trabbleanyways, I'll be back later I'm sure. hopefully I can figure this out. cheers.01:28
phillwTrabble: our mac people tend to hang out on the mailing list. If you get stuck and http://ubuntuforums.org/forumdisplay.php?f=328 cannot answer, do ask someone here about our QA team.01:29

phillwit really is a 'roll your sleeves up' approach, but in the absence of a linux driver, it is all I can suggest, I'm sorry to not be able to be of more help16:31

jarnosXfce power manager has option to lock screen on suspend/hibernate, but it does not work anymore on 13.10. 13.04 used Xscreensaver. These things should be stated in release notes.22:12
phillwjarnos: it needs a bug raising. Release notes can only be updated with a confirmed bug,22:16
phillwWe will update the release notes, but those are the rules :)22:17
jarnosphillw, it is a confirmed bug.22:17

phillwjarnos: are you happy with "Lock can be circumvented by switching to console" as it does not describe your bug?22:20
phillwYou have a bug, which should be raised; by all means mention the othr bug. But you need to raise one bug report per issue.22:21
jarnosphillw, as for the security with power manager, I am not aware of a report. If you run xscreensaver before suspending by the power manager, screen locks ok, but with a little delay.22:21
phillwjarnos: please do have a read of https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/Overview/#Bugs22:23
phillwjarnos: for a bug to be raised, and be looked at; it needs to follow the rules :)22:24

jarnosphillw, release notes do not tell anything about the change in the way screen locking in handled. xscreensaver is no more used by default, xfce power manager is no more used by default.22:31
brainwashlxsession does not lock the screen on suspend?22:34
brainwashwell, lock is not the right term, should be "lock"22:35
jarnosbrainwash, it does, but the lock can be broken by pressing ctrl-alt-f7.22:37
brainwashyea, so it's only one (critical) issue22:38
brainwashif everything else seems to work just fine22:39
jarnosWhy does lubuntu-desktop still depend on xfce4-power-manager? Is there a point to use it?22:41
phillwbrainwash: your reported bug has been reported 'upstream.'; it requires a fix from them.22:42
jarnosIt does not use same means for locking display.22:42
brainwashbattery tray icon? power management?22:42
brainwashphillw: the xscreensaver one?22:42
phillwjarnos: there is little point in trying to re-invent the wheel. The people who actually make the flavours work together.22:43
jarnosphillw, What exactly do you mean by re-inventing wheel here?22:54
brainwashwow, I did not expect that the switch to lightdm locking was done in upstream22:56
brainwashjarnos: what is the exact issue with xfce4-power-manager? is it missing/not installed? not doing its job?22:58
phillwjarnos: raise a bug, it wwas fixed in https://bugzilla.xfce.org/show_bug.cgi?id=820523:02
ubottubugzilla.xfce.org bug 8205 in General "resume from hibernate does not prompt for password" [Normal,Resolved: fixed]23:02
jarnosbrainwash, well, it remains installed as lubuntu-desktop depends on it. If you use it to suspend/hibernate, and you have set it in its preferences to lock screen then, it won't work unless you run xscreensaver first.23:07
jarnosphillw, but that was a bug in xfce4-session.23:07
brainwashjarnos: let me check, what the power manager actually does to lock the screen23:08
brainwashjarnos: right, xscreensaver needs to run in the background already23:28
brainwashxfce4-power-manager simply calls xscreensaver-command to lock the screen23:28
brainwashit worked before the xscreensaver removal23:29
brainwashand is now broken in 13.1023:30
jarnosbrainwash, does it call xscreensaver-command in background or does it wait that the command finishes before it suspends?23:38
jarnosbrainwash, maybe running in background causes that it is not ready on resume?23:38
brainwashit waits 2 seconds and calls xscreensaver, and xscreensaver waits another second to prevent the lock screen from being revealed accidentially23:40

phillwbrainwash: has lubuntu dropped a part needed? No one is perfect and I'm open to what you find.23:44
brainwashI'm not even using lubuntu/lxde, xscreensaver or lightdm screen locking, so I'm not familiar how exactly everything works (and what is broken now)23:46
brainwashhowever, I want to make sure that lubuntu is able to lock the session properly23:47
