tomatosaladQuick question, what is the significance of the mac builds? I use debian myself but want to get my friend started with a livecd on an older macbook pro that *is* 64-bit, but I'm wondering what the difference between the mac and pc isos?08:27
JohnDoe_71Rustomatosalad: x86 and PowerPC diferent arch08:29
tomatosaladoh, really?08:29
tomatosaladthat's a crap way of describing the files, then, because there were 32-bit intel processors08:29
JohnDoe_71Rushttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PowerPC08:30
tomatosaladThe original MBP had a 32-bit Intel Core Duo08:30
tomatosaladYonah08:30
JohnDoe_71RusDepends on the year08:31
JohnDoe_71Rusif it has Intel CPU, you can use x86 or amd64 iso08:31
tomatosaladNo, it doesn't. The original MacBook Pro revision, introduced in 2006, had a 32-bit Yonah Intel Core Duo processor, which was then replaced in the next revision with a 64-bit Merom Intel Core 2 Duo processor. (the MBP was also the first mac with an intel processor)08:32
tomatosaladThe original MacBook also had a Yonah08:33
tomatosaladThat's ~10 months worth of macs with 32-bit intel processors08:33
tomatosaladand, anyway, they're not different arches08:34
tomatosaladI'm discussing the amd64 "PC" iso and the amd64 "mac" iso08:34
tomatosaladwhat is the functional difference? wifi drivers?08:35
JohnDoe_71RusSpecial disks for MAC, only for powerPC08:42
tomatosaladno, they're not only powerpc08:42
tomatosaladthere's an x64 arch for mac08:43
JohnDoe_71Rustomatosalad: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Lubuntu/GetLubuntu09:05
tomatosaladdo you realize how unhelpful you are09:05
JohnDoe_71Rusno :)09:06
JohnDoe_71Rusordinary computer - x86 or amd64. Apple pc - new with intel cpu = the same ordinary computer with MacOS. You can install x86 or amd64 OS. if it powerpc cpu, use only powerpc images09:09
Unit193tomatosalad: Macs use old EFI based systems that don't support multi-catalog CDs, thus they can't use the UEFI/BIOS hybrid disks.09:19
tomatosaladUnit193: oh, interesting09:23
tomatosalad...are the x86 ones multi-catalog?09:23
Unit193Oh, well close, more info http://askubuntu.com/questions/37999/what-is-different-about-the-mac-iso-image09:23
Unit193EFI doesn't really matter in 32bit world.09:23

hectorh30Hi people, does anyone know if its possible to have a keyboard shortcut to create a new desktop?15:17
hectorh30I used to have that feature in xubuntu, but I couldn't find anything like that in ~/.config/openbox/lubuntu-rc.xml15:18
SonikkuAmericaCreate a new desktop? As in a new workspace?15:24
hectorh30SonikkuAmerica, Umm.. one more of the 4 desktops I already have laid out horizontally15:28
SonikkuAmericahectorh30: Doesn't Ctrl+Alt+[Left and Right] do that? One second...15:51
hectorh30SonikkuAmerica, I've set that keys to move between desktops.. but I'd like to create a new one (and also destroy one) on demand15:55
hectorh30In XFCE I used to do that with ctrl + insert and ctrl + supr15:55
SonikkuAmericaYou may wish to check this link out: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=203346715:59
hectorh30SonikkuAmerica, that's what I was looking for.. many thanks16:02
SonikkuAmerica:) yw16:02
koellI always need to enter mys password on network manager, though I set all user rights in the settings. Any recommendations ?16:21
honestemuHow do I get sound to come out of my second monitor instead of my laptop?19:12
holsteinhonestemu: ?19:12
holsteinhonestemu: what are the audio connections to the speakers?19:12
honestemuI'm connecting with an HDMI cable.19:13
holsteinhonestemu: hdmi can be problematic19:13
holsteinhonestemu: i would probably try a distro live with pulse to see if that helps.. something like xubuntu live.. if it "just works" then you can add pulse to lubuntu19:14
holsteinotherwise, i usually just plug an analog audio cable up.. since HDMI may not work19:14
holsteinyou can try the usually steps.. routing in alsamixer in the terminal19:14
holstein!audio19:14
ubottuIf you're having problems with sound, click the Volume applet, then Sound Preferences, and check your Volume, Hardware, Input, and Output settings.  If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/DmixPlugin - For playing audio files,  see !players and !mp3.19:14
holsteini would, from lubuntu, open a terminal and run "alsamixer" and trust no labels19:15
tamaroth_Hey, I have a problem with my projector. I use e-Machnes V700 which is HD Read (720p) but when connected to my PC the only resolution I have is 800x600:6020:02
=== tamaroth_ is now known as tamaroth
tamarothxrandr shows it's the only possible mode for that output20:02
tamarothHas anyone got any experience with dealing with projectors and/or resolutions that are not displayed20:04
SonikkuAmericaI do, but not with Lubuntu. For its lightweight size, much is sacrificed, including easily editing keyboard shortcuts.20:06
SonikkuAmericaBut I'll try as best I can.20:07
ianorlinis it through a vga cable?20:07
SonikkuAmerica^20:07
SonikkuAmerica(ianorlin: +1)20:07
ianorlinsometimes things don't support the higher resolutions they claim to through vga and get all spread wierd and distorted20:09
ianorlinalso waht resolution is your monitor currently set to?20:09
tamarothianorlin: it's vga -> hdmi20:11
tamarothmonitor is full hd 1920x120020:11
tamarothprojector is connected to another display port20:11
tamarothso ubuntu sees it as a second monitor I guess20:12
tamarothDVI-I-2 connected 800x600+1920+0 (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) 0mm x 0mm20:12
ianorlinis it your adapter cable has some wierd in built restriction?20:14
SonikkuAmericaSo is that [M1:HDMI > DVI][M2:VGA > DVI]?20:15
tamarothianorlin: it works ok on Windows though20:16
tamarothit's PC: DVI -> HDMI :Projector (if that makes any sense)20:17
* ianorlin wonders if it is useing vesa for the driver for the projector20:17
tamarothI don't know :(20:17
tamarothBah, I have to flee, I'll check the driver later ianorlin, thanks for the tip20:19

GatisWindows Phone 8 supports SDHC cards (in FAT file system format) or SDXC (in exFAT file system format)20:51
GatisI have 8GB SD card insid20:52
GatisWIndows Phone 8 connects to Lubuntu using MTP connection20:53
GatisIs it ok?20:53
ianorlinI don't think exfat works with any linux really20:53
ianorlinbecause of patents20:53
GatisBut thing is i could copy on to SD Card and Delete from it. But i couldn't move files, for example ordering pictures in folders..20:54
GatisI get like unsupported by backend...20:54
GatisSomething like that.20:54
Gatis"Operation not supported by backend"20:55

GatisYes21:00
GatisUsing Lubuntu21:00
ianorlinwhy not copy organize on comp then copy whole folders and clean up duplicates21:00
GatisI can do that21:01
GatisBut its complicated sometimes21:01
GatisANyway21:01
GatisWhy shouldnt i be able to move files inside SD?21:01
ianorlinI think you should but this might be some wierd bug or depending on format21:05
Gatishmm21:05
GatisYou said exFAT is not supported by linux21:06
GatisThat might be the case21:06
Unit193Fuse supports it at least.21:06
Gatisbut i have SDHC card21:06
Gatisnot SDXC21:06
Gatisso i have FAT propably21:06
GatisI think i need windows :(21:07
GatisCan you tell me how can i check SD format in Lubuntu?21:09
ianorlindisks utility under accesories but don't change anything21:10
GatisIt doesnt show up21:12
Gatismtp://[usb:001,012]/21:12
Gatisheres connected my windows phone21:12
GatisHow can i make a screenshot?21:13
Gatishello?21:17
ianorlinscrot from command line works21:17
ianorlinprintscreen key also should21:17
GatisWhere does it save the picture?21:20
ianorlinhome folder21:21
GatisThis is what i get moving picture to Christmas foldder inside SD card: http://i43.tinypic.com/2468htv.png21:23
GatisHas this something to do with permissions?21:24
Gatisare you there?21:26
GatisWhen i right click permissions on SD card, there's: View Content: Only owner / Change content: Nobody / Access content: Nobody21:28
SonikkuAmericaWhat is your SD card mounted under in PCManFM?21:29
GatisMy SD card is in Windows Phone 821:30
GatisI have connected my phone trough MTP connection21:30
GatisI can copy on it, delete from it but i cant reorganize and move files, like pictures in folders21:30
GatisI get this error when moving file inside SD: http://i43.tinypic.com/2468htv.png21:31
GatisIm confused :(21:32
Gatisanyone?21:34
SonikkuAmericaOh, it MTP'ed in from your device??21:36
SonikkuAmericaThat's a completely different ballgame.21:37
SonikkuAmericaYou don't have any SD card reader? (Not even a USB one?)21:37
GatisSonikkuAmerica no21:37
GatisBUt should it be a problem?21:37
SonikkuAmericaWell I don't know why your SD card is MTP'ed; I thought the SD card would be assigned a block device21:39
GatisWhat does it mean?21:41
GatisI read WIndows Phone supports MTP only21:42
SonikkuAmericaGatis: What did you do, plug your phone in directly?21:45
GatisUsing usb cable21:46
SonikkuAmericaThere's your problem. You're telling me it's an SD card when it's an MTP connection directly from your Windows Phone.21:46
GatisYes i can access my SD card like that21:47
GatisIs there a problem with that?21:47
Gatisokay21:49
SonikkuAmericaNot a huge one, but I have no idea how to transfer files from your Windows Phone to Lubuntu (it's a permissions issue, as you indicated, but you can't just go in and change permissions like anyone's business...21:49
SonikkuAmerica)21:49
SonikkuAmericaWindows and Linux are 2 different things.21:49
GatisBut why it worked with androind phone and MTP connection?21:49
SonikkuAmericaAndroid is Linux-based.21:49
ianorlinandroid does not equal windows phone21:50
GatisIs there a problem with SD format?21:50
ianorlinno I don't think so21:50
GatisI dont know what format SD has android21:50
SonikkuAmericaI doubt it, but I think it would be easier if you plugged your SD card into your computer21:51
SonikkuAmerica(if it doesn't, get a USB SD reader, they're cheap)21:51
Gatisor windows21:51
ianorlinusb SD card reader is lot cheaper than windows21:52
ianorlinand there aren't bulky either21:52
Gatisbut i have to say windows is life saver in situations like this21:52
GatisBut i dont understand why linux supports MTP connection21:53
GatisIf it does not work21:53
Gatisim not sure where is the error21:54
Gatispeople21:56
SonikkuAmericaUh... we're working on it.21:57
SonikkuAmericaOK, is this 13.10?21:58
SonikkuAmerica(It looks like it)21:58
SonikkuAmericaianorlin: Well, we tried.22:02
