[02:12] hello? someone here? [02:15] hi [02:16] how can I help? [02:16] hi! sometimes I get a kernel panic without an obvious reason... [02:16] What could cause this? [02:17] not sure without reason doesn't really help me [02:18] ok! thank you anyway! :) [02:18] maybe its just the age of my harfware... [02:18] see if there is something you are doing then I might be able to find out why [02:19] running memtest at startup might help if it is bad ram causing it and memtest is also on livecd [02:19] I think its more when I'm sutfing in the internet [02:19] ok, I'll try that. [02:19] *surfing [02:19] thank you very much indeed! === S-USA is now known as SpeedRacer === SpeedRacer is now known as SonikkuAmerica [03:47] hi everyone- lubuntu noob here, cant get any sound [03:48] but i can when i boot into another os- so the hardware is good [03:48] and ive tried messing with pulse audio and the one in the terminal [03:49] any ideas? [03:49] Well... Lubuntu doesn't use PulseAudio by default; it uses ALSA [03:50] alsa, yes, thats the one in the terminal that i checked [03:50] i unmuted it, but still nothing [03:53] when i look at configuration, it says essentially that there is nothing to configure [03:55] Sadly, I don't know squat about ALSA... all my Ubuntu stuff is done via PulseAudio... [03:56] ok, thank you- would you be able to help me set it up through pulseaudio? [03:56] I am looking at the manager right now [03:56] for devices, it says "dummy output" [03:57] is it not detecting my soundcard? [03:58] can you run aplay -l to list devices in the terminal [03:59] sure, hold on 1 sec [04:00] it says "list of PLAYBACK Hardware devices, then lists none [04:02] can you run lspci in terminal? [04:02] y [04:03] to list other hardware things so I can search for a solution [04:03] lots of stuff came up [04:03] !pastebinit [04:03] pastebinit is the command-line equivalent of !pastebin - Command output, or other text can be redirected to pastebinit, which then reports an URL containing the output - To use pastebinit, install the « pastebinit » package from a package manager - Simple usage: command | pastebinit -b http://paste.ubuntu.com [04:04] ok, one sec please [04:10] http://paste.ubuntu.com/6649311/ [04:11] sorry that it took so long, a new thing for me [04:11] understandable [04:15] aplay -l should list what alsa can use [04:16] maybe your device doesnt support linux. but, the intel stuff usually works well out of the box [04:16] mikeb2013: has it ever worked in linux before? [04:19] sigh he seemed to understand things [04:30] and thank you for the help, by the way [04:31] have you foudn a solution? [04:31] no [04:32] just making sure that i remembered to thank you- I am overwhelmed over here and really appreciate it [04:33] does running alsamixer from terminal or volume app work? [04:33] hold on, let me check [04:35] I uninstalled and installed alsa several times- let me get it working again [04:36] hmm- still says "no such device" [04:39] so no, alsamixer from terminal not working [04:39] did it work on a livecd? [04:40] y [04:40] then it could be settings messed up [04:40] before installation, y [04:41] it worked before installation? [04:41] yes [04:41] on lubuntu or other linux right [04:41] on both, actually [04:42] when running the os from usb to test it out, i had sound [04:42] when i boot into regular ubuntu, it works [04:43] on one hdd i have ubuntu, and it works [04:43] on this hdd with lubuntu, nothing, but it worked before i chose to install it [04:45] i am going to reboot and come back- just played with a few settings- unless you have another idea [04:46] ok see you in a few [05:04] https://docs.google.com/document/d/1iTlJ8BfqXUjaHO__TEdlkvuqB1WLOkGaudngc5SFLMI/edit# has a command AC that I am not sure of in procedure AC for forcing alsa to recognize your cards [06:48] sweet [06:48] there is a lubuntu channel :) [06:49] there is also #lubuntu-offtopic for general chat [06:51] hey.. i installed kickstart so i have the command /usr/sbin/system-config-kickstart but i get attributeerror: 'module' object has no attribute 'parsetagfile' [06:52] i found a website with a diff file to patch it, but i couldn't find the download itself [06:53] hrmm i dunno is this offtopic? [06:53] * ianorlin doesn't use kickstart so I wouldn't know [06:54] yeah i normally do not either [06:54] is kickstart the same across all ubuntu of the same ver? like 13.10 [06:55] * ianorlin doesn't know about kickstart and I had to look up what it was [06:55] u know.. install ubuntu and then build the kickstart on ubuntu to use on lubuntu? [06:55] oh ok.. nm maybe someone else knows.. [08:08] hello. Would any know anything about fixing lubuntu suspend problems? If I click suspend, the screen turns off for a second, then on to a black, at which point I have to reboot to do anything. [08:57] yeah its a bug [11:42] hi all, happy holidays :) [11:43] is it common for the Ubiquity installer to crash or freeze during USB installs? [12:04] I wanted to install Lubuntu 13.10 x86 on an 8gb USB stick for a friend of mine who wasn't into Linux yet. So I booted into the live environment, inserted the empty USB stick and started the Ubiquity installer. After creating partitions it kept freezing. [12:04] not the best introduction to Linux lol === leszek_ is now known as leszek [12:07] freeroute: use usb-creator to create bootable ubuntu usb sticks, either "livecd" mode or with "persistent storage" [12:08] freeroute: ubiquity is meant to install ubuntu proper, not for a portable installation. [12:10] xnox: ah, so it's ill-advised I dd the Lubuntu .iso image to a USB stick the way I did? I remember doing the same thing on another machine and it ended up working (although it was an older Lubuntu version I believe) [12:25] freedomrun: xnox appears to have stepped out, but yes, using dd to create installation media is not the preferred method for Ubuntu. For some other ideas check out https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromUSBStick however I would just recommend using the usb-creator available from within Ubuntu if it's available to you [12:26] freeroute: sorry, that was meant for you [12:26] freedomrun: apologies for the incorrect ping [12:30] np jared [12:31] I was one letter too quick on the tab autocomplete :) [12:54] freedomrun: dd is perfectely correct way to create installation media. [12:54] freedomrun: and that is supported and works. [12:54] freedomrun: however, i was under impression you used ubiquity to install onto a usb-stick, rather than internal hard-drive. [12:54] freedomrun: that is not well supported. [13:02] jared & xnox - it's strange, I've installed elementary OS successfully on a USB stick (from a USB stick containing an .iso image which was copied there using dd) without using usb-creator. [13:02] also, freeroute instead of freedomrun :p [13:02] freeroute: the part of "on to a usb stick" is not well supported. [13:03] freeroute: and may or may not continue to work. [13:03] so how do I install Lubuntu on a USB stick? Is it currently not (well) supported? [13:03] freeroute: the right way to setup portable usb-stick installation is using usb-creatro, or using dd/cp+bootloader and creating persistence partition. [13:03] I see [13:03] freeroute: don't use ubiquity =) [13:04] freeroute: you can e.g. use alternate installer with better success rates. [13:04] installing onto usb stick is quite non-deterministic with ubiquity. [13:05] ah ok, so it's a current issue with ubiquity then [13:05] freeroute: it's not meant to do that. so it's not an issue per-se, rather a design/use-case limitation. [13:07] would be fitting to write down some kind of warning somewhere during the ubuquity install procedure which tells exactly this [13:15] I'm now trying to create a startup disk using usb-creator with reserved extra space. Where exactly do I specify to encrypt the home directory? I couldn't find anything in the official docs - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromUSBStick [15:16] freeroute: usb-creator does not support making the usb stick encrypted. [15:17] freeroute: if we could reliably detect that target is removal usb stick, we'd make ubiquity work with persistent installation onto removable media.... [15:18] freeroute: to be honest, i'd recommend Wubi to people who want to try ubuntu without repartitioning their windows machines. [15:18] freeroute: and that does support home-folder encryption. [15:18] freeroute: unless one has Windows8/UEFI-only machine, Wubi works correctly and is supported. [15:47] ok, lubuntuistas [15:48] when I copy a URL and then paste it into irssi, a ^V character carries over, which puts the URL in reverse video [15:48] this is not necessarily the desired effect [15:48] if I think about it, I can move to the beginning of the line and delete the ^V, but this is annoying to have to do [15:49] what's more, this was not a problem with stock ubuntu (precise) and so my habit is not to look for it [17:32] hey guys [17:33] does lubuntu use the same commands as ubunut? [17:33] ubuntu* === yofel_ is now known as yofel
