[01:55] <Tlan5> hello
[01:55] <Tlan5> how do i get my FN keys to work in ubuntu
[01:55] <Tlan5> also i have no sound
[01:55] <Tlan5> any ideas
[01:58] <Tlan5> hello
[02:03] <nannes> hi Tlan5
[02:04] <nannes> About the sound, you should check all the volumes from terminal, with the command   alsamixer
[02:05] <Tlan5> i found a setting in the control panel
[02:05] <Tlan5> under keyboard and input
[02:05] <Tlan5> there is a check box says use system layout
[02:05] <Tlan5> i check it
[02:05] <Tlan5> and then my fn keys work except for sound
[02:05] <Tlan5> it seems soudn is not installed??
[02:06] <nannes> As for Fn keys, You can keep that option enabled, and just add manually to the keymap the KeyCode correspondant to the volume special keys
[02:06] <Tlan5> i think the volume keys don't work because i have no sound installed
[02:07] <uBUXUBu> hi
[02:07] <Tlan5> i have no volume controls or anything
[02:07] <Tlan5> but some of my fn keys work
[02:07] <Tlan5> like brightness
[02:07] <nannes> Tlan5: Seriously? Why you don't have sound installed?
[02:07] <Tlan5> i don;t know
[02:08] <Tlan5> i think its a bug or something with the install
[02:08] <nannes> well, check that... sudo apt-get install pulseaudio
[02:08] <Tlan5> ok
[02:09] <Tlan5> i did a secure erase on my ssd and iam in the process right now if reinstalling lubunt 13.10
[02:09] <nannes> Tlan5: Is your sound card integrated in the motherboard or separate?
[02:09] <Tlan5> so iwill try that command when i am b ack in
[02:09] <nannes> ok!
[02:09] <Tlan5> its intergrated running a acer v5 122p-0643 laptop
[02:09] <nannes> hi uBUXUBu
[02:09] <Tlan5> hey anyways can i get your thoughts on something?
[02:09] <uBUXUBu> hi nannes
[02:10] <Tlan5> lubuntu 13.10 seems way better than xubuntu
[02:10] <Tlan5> like as far as 13.10 goes it seems like lubuntu had more stuff done
[02:10] <Tlan5> and xubuntu has not changed
[02:10] <tonokip> what is the default password for the livecd?
[02:10] <nannes> Tlan5: Anyway, this page could be very helpful https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting
[02:10] <uBUXUBu> im running buntu on a intel dual core with 2 gigs of ram and a dedicated 5570 card wow its nice
[02:11] <nannes> Yes, I'm a very big fan of lubuntu
[02:11] <nannes> I appreciate xfce too
[02:11] <Tlan5> also xfce seems more like mac os
[02:11] <Tlan5> and lubuntu is like xp
[02:11] <Tlan5> do you guys like thunderbird over the stock email app in lubuntu ?
[02:11] <nannes> like xp? not at all :/
[02:11] <Tlan5> no i mean the ui
[02:11] <nannes> Tlan5: Yessss thunderbird 4ever
[02:12] <Tlan5> like the taskbar alot of people compare it to older xp
[02:12] <nannes> somebody likes sylpheed, but I miss tb too much
[02:12] <Tlan5> i like the minimalistic theme of lubuntu over xubuntu
[02:13] <Tlan5> i have one more problem maybe you can help me
[02:13] <nannes> I can try
[02:13] <Tlan5> when i hit ctrl+alt+f1
[02:13] <Tlan5> i get garbled graphics
[02:13] <Tlan5> i can't see the command line
[02:13] <Tlan5> any idea why
[02:13] <nannes> what does "garbled" mean? I'm not a native speaker lol
[02:14] <Tlan5> like its all messed up
[02:14] <Tlan5> the screen
[02:14] <nannes> oh
[02:14] <Tlan5> no text appears
[02:14] <Tlan5> i have to hit alt+ctrl+f7 to get back to desktop gui
[02:14] <Tlan5> i can't install the proppritary amd drivers i need for this A6 apu
[02:14] <Tlan5> to work correctly
[02:15] <Tlan5> i want to install steam
[02:15] <nannes> mmmmmh
[02:15] <nannes> Does Safe Mode make it behave correctly?
[02:16] <Tlan5> how do i get into safe mode
[02:16] <Tlan5> iam running uefi bios
[02:16] <nannes> from grub, you have the choice menu
[02:16] <Tlan5> i don't see grub i just get a lubuntu logo
[02:16] <Tlan5> i have a ssd so it moves really fast
[02:17] <nannes> Tlan5: Curiosity: Have you installed a clean *buntu, or did you use wubi to install it into windows?
[02:17] <Tlan5> nope
[02:17] <Tlan5> i did a secure erase of my ssd
[02:17] <Tlan5> used GPT
[02:17] <Tlan5> and then created a live usb using unetbootin
[02:17] <nannes> for the grub screen to appear you have to hold shift during boot... and maybe pressing ESCAPE sometimes would help too
[02:18] <Tlan5> i tried holding down shift
[02:18] <Tlan5> nothing happens
[02:18] <nannes> try with escape too :P
[02:18] <Tlan5> shift+esc
[02:18] <Tlan5> or just esc
[02:18] <Tlan5> will this allow me install the drivers?
[02:18] <Tlan5> can i use the wget command
[02:19] <Tlan5> download the drivers then unzip and install ???
[02:19] <uBUXUBu> did u install lubuntu while the cat5 was connected?
[02:19] <Tlan5> i don't have ethernet jsut wifi
[02:19] <uBUXUBu> ah ha
[02:19] <Tlan5> iam installing right now again
[02:19] <Tlan5> but this time iamd downloading updates and the third party thing
[02:20] <Tlan5> i checked both boxes
[02:20] <nannes> shift + esc
[02:20] <uBUXUBu> if u install while connected to cat5 it might make it better
[02:20] <Tlan5> so i guess its downloading the latest kernel
[02:20] <Tlan5> right now
[02:20] <Tlan5> i can't i don't have ethernet port on this laptop
[02:20] <uBUXUBu> but can u arrange to do so?
[02:20] <uBUXUBu> omg no enet prt
[02:21] <Tlan5> are you talking about a net install ?
[02:21] <Tlan5> yea
[02:21] <nannes> anyway, I think setting the "GRUB_GFXMODE" in /etc/default/grub  exactly the same resolution as you have on your graphical session, would help
[02:21] <uBUXUBu> ok nvm then
[02:21] <Tlan5> i would have to get the mini dp to ethernet adapter
[02:21] <uBUXUBu> ive had issue sometime when doing wifi installs
[02:21] <Tlan5> which i don't have
[02:21] <Tlan5> iam installing off a usb stick
[02:22] <uBUXUBu> for some reason, and maybe its just me...but when i do my clean install hooked up hard wired...i et all the drivers easier..i noticed this on both buntu and even windows
[02:22] <Tlan5> yea
[02:22] <Tlan5> i know what you mean
[02:23] <Tlan5> but i have a new  DD-wrt router i just bought
[02:23] <nannes> Tlan5: Have a look at this http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1850667
[02:23] <Tlan5> iam connected to G 2.4ghz
[02:23] <uBUXUBu> its not the speed
[02:23] <Tlan5> what is wubi ?
[02:24] <uBUXUBu> its a file that makes windows think its a partition
[02:24] <nannes> It's a program that makes ubuntu work from into windows
[02:24] <uBUXUBu> it had buntu in it and it looks and boots like a real partition (dual booter)
[02:24] <nannes> very helpful for those who cannot change their partition table
[02:24] <nannes> but very problematic sometimes
[02:25] <uBUXUBu> it doesnt last very long
[02:25] <nannes> it's a *ubuntu install INTO windows
[02:25] <uBUXUBu> its kinda nice because if you want to uninstall it it...it uninstalls easy and totally registry and all....and the natural partitions remain untouched
[02:26] <Tlan5> restart nautilus ?
[02:26] <Tlan5> that is the fix
[02:26] <Tlan5> i didn't know lubuntu had nautilus
[02:30] <Unit193> It doesn't.
[02:30] <nannes> Tlan5: No, lol, read it at the bottom
[02:30] <Tlan5> oh
[02:31] <nannes> GRUB_GFXMODE and also, in page 2, grub loaded drivers for graphic
[02:37] <Tlan5> just tell me the commands
[02:37] <Tlan5> so i can paste them
[02:37] <nannes> lol
[02:37] <nannes> sudo leafpad /etc/default/grub
[02:37] <nannes> remove the # before GRUB_GFXMODE
[02:38] <nannes> and set it to your screen's resolution, the same you use within your DE
[02:38] <nannes> Then you --> cat /boot/grub/video.lst
[02:38] <nannes> and see if there are missing modules
[02:40] <nannes> of course you have to update grub after this modification
[02:40] <nannes> the command is   sudo update-grub2   if I'm not wrong
[02:47] <Tlan5> what is ibus
[02:50] <nannes> https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intelligent_Input_Bus
[03:29] <Tlan5> i typed in cat /boot/grub/video.lst and nothing happened
[03:30] <Tlan5> hey so  edited the grub
[03:30] <Tlan5> but now instead of graphic coruption i get a black screen
[03:30] <Tlan5> any ideas
[03:34] <Tlan5> hello
[03:36] <Tlan5> hey you there?
[03:59] <holstein> Tlan5: you have no sound?
[04:30] <Tlan5> no i have sound
[04:30] <Tlan5> everything is running pretty good
[04:31] <Tlan5> i just cann't use my laptops FN keys
[04:31] <Tlan5> which sucks
[04:31] <Tlan5> and i cant get to a TTL terminal
[04:49] <Tlan5> YES I DID IT !!!
[04:49] <Tlan5> I got the  amd drivers
[04:51] <Tlan5> i got the amd propritary drivers installed
[04:52] <Tlan5> now i just need to fix my FN key issue
[04:52] <Tlan5> i be in heaven
[06:50] <tonokip> cant get 1920x1080 to work on a Celeron G1620 integrated gpu, :/
[06:52] <tonokip> nvm i rebooted and it works, lol
[06:52] <JohnDoe_71Rus> "seven troubles one reset"
[07:06] <tonokip> language somehow got set to something else and cant figure out how to switch it back, lol
[07:09] <tonokip> better reboot i guess
[07:09] <tonokip> the linux/windows way
[07:09] <JohnDoe_71Rus> this windows way
[07:10] <JohnDoe_71Rus> linux way - reboot daemon
[07:11] <tonokip> lol now im completely locked out
[07:12] <tonokip> using lubuntu installed to a usb drive w/ the pendrivelinux installer from windows
[07:15] <tonokip> :/
[07:15] <tonokip> cant login using the password i set before rebooting
[08:02] <robsco> Hello all
[08:03] <robsco> I'm running Lubuntu 13.10 using the shipped pcmanfm and lxterminal and I have an issue opening a terminal from pcmanfm using the "f4" shortcut
[08:04] <robsco> it seems to not work when there is a space in the folder name
[08:05] <robsco> so for example if hit "f4" when in the folder: /home/rob/test folder lxterminal wont open
[08:06] <robsco> It has been my one gripe with Lubuntu for a while now and I'm hoping there is a simple solution.
[08:07] <robsco> Apart from this I've had a great experience using Lubuntu, been at it since 12.04
[11:02] <xyzwhatever> damn suddenly pcmanfm doesnt start anymore, whether i click on the icon or type it in the console... no error message whatsoever
[12:07] <tonokip> anyone know how i can recover from a bad xorf.conf file
[12:13] <robsco> tonokip, ctrl+alt+f1 then edit it?

[19:12] <rsa> hi ...
[19:13] <ianorlin> how can I help
[19:15] <rsa> just wondering what is the difference between x64 version and x32 version? just the memory handling?
[19:15] <ianorlin> you need a 64 bit processor to get use the 64 bit version
[19:16] <rsa> ok I know that but you can also run x32  version on x64 architecture machine
[19:17] <ianorlin> yes and it uses a little bit more ram with the 64 bit version
[19:17] <ianorlin> 64 makes using some parts of virtual machines easier
[19:18] <rsa> Can I install virtualbox on lubuntu and run virtual machines?
[19:19] <rsa> I chose lubuntu because it uses less maemory and disk than ubuntu
[19:22] <ianorlin> yes but 64 bit allows more but will be slow without hardware virtualization support
[19:22] <ianorlin> also uses more ram to run both
[19:23] <rsa> OK thanks
[19:23] <rsa> I have a HP Compaq notebook and I can't make the function keys to work with the the display brightness
[19:24] <rsa> how do I specify the Fn key
[19:26] <urielvigilant> To install lubuntu-fake-pae is the same way as any other Lubunyu doesnt ? download iso here http://phillw.net/isos/lubuntu-fake-pae/  then burn iso on DVD or USB and then test and them install ?
[19:30] <urielvigilant> I think acer 3003 wmli dont run Lubuntu up then 12.04 because it dont have PAE. AMD Mobile Sempron 3100+ does it have PAE ?
[19:40] <ianorlin> do you have any linux installed on it currently then you could cat /proc/cpuinfo in a terminal to see if it has pae
[19:43] <urielvigilant> ianorlin  : yes it have Lubuntu 13.04 the only one that runs after tryed unsucessfully 13.10 and 13.04 and 12.10
[19:44] <urielvigilant> iarnolin : correction .- -  yes it have Lubuntu 12.04 the only one that runs after tryed unsucessfully 13.10 and 13.04 and 12.10
[20:07] <ianorlin> was it blackscreen at boot?
[20:15] <urielvigilant> on boot it changes for all black to black with mouse pointer ,
[20:18] <ianorlin> but installed correctly
[20:18] <ianorlin> does the keyboard work?
[20:19] <urielvigilant> no . . . only the 12.04 installed correctly  . But Lubuntu 12.04 support ends on april
[20:19] <urielvigilant> on contrary Ubuntu 12.04
[20:19] <urielvigilant> as you know
[20:19] <ianorlin> have you tried nomodeset?
[20:19] <urielvigilant> i think iam not able to install from mini iso. it seems to be a solution . .
[20:20] <urielvigilant> nomodeset . . no i dont know what it is . but i heard about bohdi linux being a alternative solution .
[20:20] <ianorlin> !nomodeset
[20:21] <urielvigilant> ianorlin . . . .  do you think it not have to do with PAE  ?
[20:21] <ianorlin> in 12.04 can you cat /proc/cpuinfo
[20:22] <ianorlin> it doesn't matter what I think it matters wheter the cpu has it and that can check
[20:22] <urielvigilant> i will do that next time went visit him,
[20:22] <urielvigilant> it must say pae somewhere , doesn it ?
[20:22] <urielvigilant> after that command ?
[20:23] <ianorlin> under flags
[20:23] <urielvigilant> ianorlin , ok i will do that
[20:24] <urielvigilant> not today , then i comback to take a decision for what Os i will change after april
[20:31] <Tlan> Hello
[20:31] <ianorlin> hi

[20:32] <Tlan> It doesn't recognize fn command keys and I can't adjust screen brightness and sound volume
[20:33] <ianorlin> does control f10 or control f11 work
[20:34] <Tlan> Any help no
[20:34] <Tlan> I have sound
[20:34] <Tlan> I want it to work like windows
[20:36] <Tlan> Showing the on screen volume meter
[20:36] <ianorlin> right click on the panel at the bottom
[20:36] <Tlan> Some of the functions work  like turning off the touch pad
[20:37] <ianorlin> go to panel settings go to panel applets and select add volume control
[20:38] <Tlan> I already have that on
[20:40] <Tlan> Any ideas
[22:35] <tsma> hi all I am trying to install a .bin file, while running in the beginning it closes and give me a message says "Segmentation fault (core dumped)", anyone has any idea about solution?thanks
