[00:45] <ps1mon> hello
[07:01] <balsaq> good morning lubuntu
[17:49] <Newk> hi, got an older computer installed with lubuntu 12.04 and has network pci that is recognized in the system.. but it fails to start it? NetworkManager is running but i am missing something to connect to my network
[17:54] <Guest12997> How can I find out the temperature of my system? xsensors says 'No supported sensors found'
[17:54] <Guest12997> (I'm on a live system now btw)
[17:56] <holstein> Guest12997: i would try referring to https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SensorInstallHowto
[17:56] <genii> Guest12997: Do you have package lm-sensors installed?
[17:57] <vn151502510> Guest12997: uhm, how about `cat /sys/devices/virtual/thermal/thermal_zone0/temp`
[17:57] <Guest12997> genii, yeah, lm-sensors is installed, and I also ran sensors-detect
[17:59] <Guest12997> vn151502510, no such file or directory
[17:59] <Newk> so strange that i installed lubuntu 12.04 via netboot.. and once it is running it fails to see the network, very odd
[18:00] <vn151502510> Guest12997: lxpanel has applet "temperature monitor", maybe
[18:01] <Guest12997> holstein, I have no service module-init-tools
[18:01] <holstein> Guest12997: you might not have a vendor that is supporting these tools
[18:03] <Guest12997> holstein, which tools?
[18:04] <holstein> Guest12997: the ones you are referencing and trying
[18:04] <holstein> Guest12997: the hardware may not support linux
[18:04] <Guest12997> holstein, the hardware came with RedHat pre-installed, so I'm sure it supports linux
[18:05] <holstein> Guest12997: might *have* supported some kernel.. you cant assume it should report information to any OOS
[18:05] <holstein> OS*
[18:06] <Guest12997> holstein, well, short of buying a new computer, what can  I do about it?
[18:08] <holstein> Guest12997: well, ideally, the vendor would help you with the support.. but, i think its likely something you can get working
[18:08] <holstein> what would i do? just use the bios to make certain the hardware is functioning.. and clean the machine and use it
[18:12] <Guest12997> holstein, well, I just replaced the paste between the CPU and the heatsing, so I want to make sure the temperature is not too high before I start using the pc for real. I'll just try with an older live system to see if the wiki instructions work
[18:12] <holstein> Guest12997: the bios should report what  seek
[18:12] <Guest12997> thanks for you help, i'm shutting down now before I melt something ;)
[18:12] <holstein> what you seek*
[18:12] <Guest12997> will try the bios, thanks!
[18:18] <Newk> seemed like a common issue.. this fixed it: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Lubuntu/Documentation/MinimalInstall#Change_Network_Manager_settings
[20:04] <sventon> hi all. I running OSX/virutualbox/lubuntu but the resolution is wrong so i try to install guest aditions like suggested here: http://askubuntu.com/questions/311161/how-to-install-guest-additions-in-lubuntu-13-04. The problem is I don't have a "Install Guest Additions" menu item in the "Device" tab
[20:06] <sventon> the only simmular menu item I have is named "Insert Guest Adition CD image". Really strange becouse all tutorials I ben able to find asume you have a "Install Guest Additions" menu
[20:06] <sventon> ?
[22:16] <tadcrazio> hey hoping someone can help me out here, I'm looking to change the size of icons in lubuntu and not change the whole resolution
