[05:39] <Danato> I just installed Lubuntu on a netbook, but I'm not quite sure I did the right thing, everything keeps crashing :/
[05:58] <ianorlin> have you checked the md5sum of the download or the install cd usb drive?
[06:23] <Danato> I think I may have missed some messages when I lost connection
[06:23] <Danato> Did I do the right thing installing lubuntu 12.04 instead of 13.10 on a netbook?
[06:24] <Danato> because everything keeps crashing and I cant even use the chromium browser properly

[15:38] <philwire> hi all, I'm in need of help with a hauppage pvr-150 tv tuner. yesterday I got it to display svideo correctly via mplayer /dev/video0 but this morning I wanted to get sound but while fiddling with vlc the image got scrambled.
[19:58] <Blurrorz> Hi Everyone!
[19:59] <greeter> greetings Blurrorz
[19:59] <Blurrorz> :D !
[20:01] <greeter> what's up?
[20:02] <Blurrorz> Nm! Ive been trying Linux for a while now, A few different distributions, now im at Lubuntu! The smoothest ive tried so far (my computer is old lol)
[20:02] <Blurrorz> i might stick with it!
[20:04] <Blurrorz> Anyone running Steam powered on lubuntu?
[20:14] <greeter> lubuntu is what i use. this computer is 12 years old, simply doesn't meet the minimum specs for regular ubuntu
[20:15] <Blurrorz> haha mine does but still run quite slow...
[20:15] <Blurrorz> i rather have it running smooth!
[20:16] <greeter> same here. that's partially why i looked at lubuntu. i was looking to migrate away from fedora when i found they were taking a ridiculous amount of time to fix bugs
[20:17] <Blurrorz> Ok, i didnt know that :p
[20:17] <Blurrorz> The last distribution i tried was centos.
[20:18] <greeter> never tried it myself. is it good?
[21:04] <Danato> is there a way to show mounted devices on lxde's desktop?
[21:04] <holstein> Danato: they should show in the filemanager
[21:06] <Danato> holstein: yes. it does. But I installed lubuntu on a computer that belongs to a person who doesnt know much about computers. And I think it would be way easier for her if there were icons on the desktop
[21:09] <holstein> Danato: just keep in mind its the heavier filemanagers that typically manage that for the users, and lubuntu (and many other light distros) have gone with a lighter configuration... changing this can make the system slower, or potentially les stable
[21:09] <holstein> less*
[21:10] <Danato> holstein: got that, thanks
[21:10] <holstein> http://askubuntu.com/questions/145087/lubuntu-panel-applet-or-indicator-to-display-mounted-volumes
[21:11] <holstein> Danato: IIRC, thunar has settings to manage that, and its not "heavy"..
[21:11] <Danato> holstein: sorry but whats that?
[21:12] <holstein> Danato: what is what? the link? or thunar?
[21:12] <Danato> holstein: thunar
[21:12] <holstein> !info thunar
[21:12] <holstein> another filemanager that might offer what you are looking for in a more "native" way
[21:14] <Danato> holstein: I think I'll try this ejecter, if that works well, im happy
[21:17] <holstein> !info ejecter

[21:20] <koell> How can I change the sound when my battery fuel is low?
[21:20] <holstein> Danato: that ppa is dead..
[21:20] <ianorlin> there is a sound I haven't gotten mine down that far
[21:21] <Danato> holstein: kinda noticed its old, and everything suggests me that its made to "safely remove devices"
[21:21] <koell> ianorlin: I would like to use the alarm sound from stargate atlantis when my battery is low. this would be really cool!
[21:23] <holstein> Danato: whats made to what?
[21:23] <holstein> Danato: you'l want to unmound devices.. you can do that in the filemanager
[21:24] <Danato> holstein: ejecter. I just want something that shows mounted devices on the desktop. So now I'm jst gonna try thunar
[21:26] <ianorlin> koell don't see a way to do that in xfce power manager GUI
[21:28] <Danato> holstein: just another thing, now Ive installed thunar, but how do I switch default file managers?
[21:35] <holstein> Danato: you can (and probably for the sake of ease) leave them both in place.. but, it should be similar to http://askubuntu.com/questions/73017/thunar-as-default-file-manager-in-lubuntu-11-10-how
[21:39] <Danato> holstein: thanks
