pvl1ive losted my panel01:28
Unit193pvl1: Default config is in /usr/share/lxpanel/profile/Lubuntu/01:52
pvl1Unit193: i think the problem is ive botched my session settings. is everything Lubuntu by default? not LXDE?01:54
Unit193Things tend to be called "Lubuntu" and use a Lubuntu profile, yes.  This is to change some defaults.01:55
pvl1is there a way to reconfigure it? ive def botched my settings02:00
pvl1rather what package sould i reconfigure02:02
Unit193If you messed it up, the config in ~/.config/ is messed up and thus a reconfigure won't work.02:05
Unit193Could remove the lxpanel dir in there and copy from where I stated, keeping structure of course.02:06
pvl1i think i messed up /usr/share/xsession/02:07
pvl1though idk, at least its logging in now02:07
Unit193lubuntu-default-settings, then.02:08
LiuKangWinswould anyone be able to help me with lubuntu arm problem?02:15
ianorlinwhat is the arm problem I am not familar with arm version though02:15
LiuKangWinsi did a fresh install but when i login, it loops back to the login screen02:17
LiuKangWinsan incorrect passwd says it's incorrect, but the right one just loops back02:17
Unit193What session are you selecting?  Can you switch to a TTY, login, and  startlubuntu ?02:17
pvl1thats the same problem i was just having02:17
LiuKangWinsthere are several, like GNOME/Openbox, LX Games, lubuntu, lubuntu netbook, lubuntu nexus 7 session, and openbox02:18
LiuKangWinswhen selecting some, they loop without even waiting to settle and wait for a login02:19
ianorlinyes which were you using?02:19
LiuKangWinsothers can be selected but same login problem02:19
LiuKangWinslubuntu on it's own isn't looping without password input02:19
LiuKangWinswhen i select openbox, for instance, it won't even let me put in a password unless i type it really fast02:20
ianorlinwhich release 13.04 13.10?02:20
LiuKangWins13.0402:21
ianorlinopenbox works for me on x86_64 version but different version might have bug02:21
LiuKangWinswell that's a totally different version, this is on a tablet so completely different issue02:23
ianorlinI think arm needs more testers02:23
pvl1Unit193: where do i seend cookies in return for the help :)02:29
LiuKangWinsya i suppose not many people are experimenting with SoC devices outside of android02:29
Unit193To meeeeee. \o/02:29
Unit193pvl1: All together then?02:30
pvl1yup yup02:30
pvl1turns out i didnt even have the package installed02:30
Unit193Hah, well that'd be helpful.  Good that you got it.02:30
pvl1been trying to figure it out for weeks02:31
pvl1kept think it was an x error02:31
Unit193Might want to simulate what installing lubuntu-core or lubuntu-desktop would install.02:31
pvl1iwanted to do that, but this is an extremely light device, i dont have the resources on it to do soemthing so large02:31
Unit193apt-get install -s lubuntu-desktop  (Won't really simulate technically, just show what it'd pull in.)02:32
pvl1ooh02:32
pvl1i see no act02:33
pvl1when i run lsb_release im getting ubuntu 12.1002:41
pvl1is that right02:41
Unit193If you're on 12.10 it is. :P02:43
Unit193That's exactly what that should be telling you, if you wanted to make sure you didn't pin a package (you'd know if you did), you can  grep ^deb /etc/apt/sources.list  too.02:44
pvl1im checking my repos now02:45
pvl1tiny little atom processor02:45
pvl1oh its an intel celeronM 800mhz02:46
pvl1oh boy thisll take a while02:48
Unit193Hmm?02:49
pvl1upgradign to raring02:49
urielvigilantA couple a days ago, i conmplained about, impossibility to install Ubuntu and Lubuntu 13.10 on Acer 3003 wlmi friend of mine with usb pen persistent or CD/////DVD , yesterday i tryed with Lubuntu 12.04 , and it worked well ! After install Lubuntu 12.04 it ask me more then 200 mb of updates and i gave it ! what is this ? now is the same then Lubuntu 13.10 after this updates ?02:50
Unit193urielvigilant: Nope, you just updated 1204.  Can you grep pae /proc/cpuinfo  ?02:51
pvl1pae gives arch Unit193 ?02:51
urielvigilantUnit193 , sorry iam newby with that language, can you  translate a litle bit ?02:52
Unit193pvl1: PAE is a compatibility feature of the CPU that enables a 32bit OS to use more than 4GB of ram.  Kernels in newer versions require this.02:52
Unit193urielvigilant: Sorry.  I'm interested in the output of that command, if you open the menu, accessories, lxterminal and paste that in.02:53
urielvigilantiam on the machine now.02:53
Unit193Yes.02:53
urielvigilantiam not on the machin now, bu ti will02:53
urielvigilanttomorrow maybe02:54
Unit193Aha, alrighty.02:54
pvl1oh kool thanks Unit193 . so if my 4 cores have it, i have the faeture02:54
Unit193What?  Can't parse that.  The command I said will report back if the CPU is reporting that it supports that feature.02:55
urielvigilantUnit193 the important thing that we have one more Linux user , for now xp half lubuntu 12.04 , but we have !02:55
pvl1oh ok. well i guess i have the feature02:56
urielvigilantI still not understand why  nether Ubuntu 13.10 nether lubuntu 13,10 does t started on acer 3003 wlmi . Maybe i should also tryed 13.04 does nit ?03:02
urielvigilant10,04 doest started nether 12.04 on my acer 5204 wlmi with 2 gb Ram and lubuntu 13.10 with full install on it , with CD live experience03:04

ianorlinhow old is this laptop?03:09
urielvigilantit s a good idea upgrade 12.04 lubuntu to 13.04 lubuntu if it works on acer 3003 wmli by live cd ? it already have 12.04 lubuntu workin, there is a way to upgrade from it ?03:10
ianorlinis it just a black screen?03:10
urielvigilantianorlin : which of those ?  u03:10
ianorlindepends you should go into a terminal and type cat /proc/cpuinfo and make sure it has pae flag03:11
urielvigilantianorlin : for 3003 wmli , with 13.10 , then Yes, it changes from switch on to switch of, i mean the creen  on start up and then it doesn start. In case of the mine acer 5204 wmli with a full install of lubutnu 13.10, it  stay indefenitily tryying to start up a live cd with 10,04 or 12.04 and dont start at the end03:13
ianorlinhow much ram does the 3003 have?03:14
urielvigilantfor my acer 5204 the result is this http://paste.ubuntu.com/6538620/         :   ianorli03:15
urielvigilantfor my acer 5204 the result is this http://paste.ubuntu.com/6538620/         :   ianorlin03:16

urielvigilantianorlin : 13.10 dnt work nether live cd nether usb persistent nether on 300303:18
ianorlincould be bad download? can you type md5sum on the download of 13.1003:19
urielvigilantianorlin how to do that =03:19

Krispisis lubuntu a debian distro?13:23
ilovexbmcafternoon all... i have a bit of a noob question... im not totally green as far as linux is concerned but im totally unable to solve this... i want to execute a command as soon as my lubuntu desktop starts up but i cant figure out where the command needs to go13:50
n-iCeI upgraded to 13.1017:30
n-iCeand all the system is not like before17:30
n-iCelot of programs are not being loaded17:30
n-iCedefault apps were changed17:30
nannesn-iCe: Yeah, that's what happens updating17:32
nanneslot of programs not being loaded... can you specify more?17:32
n-iCenannes: dropbox17:39
n-iCenetwork-manager17:40
n-iCemy dual monitor configurations17:40
Leedsbuntuevening all... i want to make my lubuntu installation execute the following command when i boot up: "sudo mount -t cifs //192.168.1.254/USB1/ media/share" but i cant figure it out. i placed the command inside ~/.config/autostart but nothing...17:40
Leedsbuntuanyone? im baffled...17:43
pleia2Leedsbuntu: my suggestion would be following this: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently17:43
pleia2add it to your /etc/fstab, the file which mounts filesystems17:43
Leedsbuntupleia2 - thanks will read now... fstab is a bit of a confusal for me, im not green with linux just never really got FSTab...17:44
pleia2Leedsbuntu: that documentation is pretty good, with examples :)17:44
nannesn-iCe: THese kinda things happen with updates... you should try to manually reconfigure your dual-monitor configurations17:45
Leedsbuntumany thanks, im really eager to be a lubuntu pro - lubuntu a VERY good distro... will run as a PLEX server on my very old desktop pc, no issues!17:45
nannesn-iCe: What about network manager? how exactly doesn't it work? What's missing? Cause it can be a driver issue, and not a NM one17:46
n-iCeicon17:47
n-iCedoes not launch17:47
n-iCenannes: I have reconfigurated all, but after reboot, all is gone again17:47
nannesn-iCe: Try a   sudo apt-get install --reinstall network-manager17:48
Leedsbuntusorry pleia2, can "servername" be an IP address? in example you gave me? as in my example above17:48
pleia2Leedsbuntu: yep17:48
Leedsbuntuthanks again :) will crack on in a moment17:48
pleia2sure thing, good luck17:48
nannesn-iCe:  Also,  sudo apt-get install pastebinit;cat /etc/interfaces|pastebinit17:56
nannesn-iCe: and   sudo dpkg-reconfigure network-manager17:57
Leedsbuntupleia2 worked perfectly, many thanks, i figure i understand a bit better now... thanks <3 <3 <318:14
pleia2Leedsbuntu: glad to hear it! :)18:15
Leedsbuntui love the community here, cant thank you enough...18:15
nannesThis channel is slightly void, but... yeah, the potential of a good community can be very high18:17
Leedsbuntuagreed nannes18:28
Leedsbuntuquicker than a forum but not always the most complete means of obtaining help18:29
hieri was able to get into nomodset in live cd and not usb and now i am installing. Is this ok? i think i get black screeens cause18:42
hieri have an nvidia graphics card18:43
ianorlinhttps://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/Nvidia is a link I found18:45
nanneshier: Wait until the installation finishes. This kinda problem often happens during the installation only.18:47
hieridk if its hard for me to install linux on this because its the uefi type or the nvidia drivers18:47
hierok, well the livecd is working so far. hopefully the grub doesnt fail18:47
nanneshier: If nomodeset worked, that means that it's not about uefi18:49
hierprobablythis graphics cards. such a pain. Last time i got ubuntu working, it told me aboutadditional drivers for nvidia, i installed and and reset and i got a black screen18:50

nannesalso, I don't see in what mate's panel is better than lxpanel :O20:29
CountryfiedLinuxnannes, Because I wanna add the Mint menu to it but I also want the sharp cornered look of LXDE20:32
CountryfiedLinuxIs it even possible to add the Mate panel to LXDE?20:34
CountryfiedLinuxOh and lxpanel can't autohide. I like my panel at top autohid and dock at the bottom.20:35
