hide-san_Hello13:52
hide-san_I just started Lubuntu 13 and would like to swap CTRL key and Caps Lock key.13:53
hide-san_However xmodmap does not work well. (the swap setup is reset after some actions. I cannot figured out the actions yet.13:54
hide-san_Anybody know how to swap capslock and ctrl key?13:54
Greylockshide-san_: Have you tried changing them in rc.xml?14:03
hide-san_Hi Greylocks. No, I haven't.14:05
hide-san_Let me try. Could you give me any reference (web) if you have the link handy?14:05
Greylockshide-san_:  This should help: http://openbox.org/wiki/Help:Configuration14:10
hide-san_Checking the page now.14:12
hide-san_Greylocks: Sorry I could not figure out what to do from the web.14:17
hide-san_The keyboard section has the link to http://openbox.org/wiki/Help:Bindings#Key_bindings14:17
hide-san_But this is to setup "short cut" by defining the linkage between "keys" and "action" (But not swap CTRL and CAPS_LOCK)14:18
hide-san_Would you tell me where to check on the web?14:18
Greylockshide-san_: I figured that you could remap the keys in there...perhaps try a google search.14:21
SLitHi! I have problem installing lubuntu on mac mini. At one point installer freezes and my screen stops to flash, filicker... Afther that I can't do nothing14:23
SLitAnybody?14:31
Kriss3dHi everyone. Uhmm for some reason my Huawei E173 wont connect. any known issues ?14:31
Kriss3dIm using latest Lubuntu and tried serveral of those odd spanish driver packs that people suggest14:31
phillwSLit: it probably better to email the testing email list. That's where the MAC people hang out.14:54
phillwSLit: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Lubuntu/Testing/PPC%26Mac64 has further details and some useful links to follow.14:55
phillwKriss3d: we share the same drivers as all of the *buntu familiy... let me have a dig for you.14:56
phillwKriss3d: http://askubuntu.com/questions/179324/huawei-e173-on-ubuntu-12-04 has two solutions (I'd try the swapping the usb port 1st... I've had that one myself with huawei in the past)14:58
SLit@ phillw I tought maybe I could use aletranative cd. It looks like(maybe it isn't) that It is to demanding for mac mini from 200615:16
phillwSLit: I don't have any experience with macs. There is a small team on the testing team. If you're emailing them please prefix the subject [PPC] so that they know it is for mac and not general query. the settings for graphics are dependeant on which graphics card you have installed (2 different solutions for 2 different makes). That is why we do not have one overall answer for graphics issues :/15:19
SLitOk15:19
SLitI will try first with alletrantive cd, then I will e-mail15:20
phillwSLit: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PowerPCFAQ#Configure_graphics has background on the graphics issues.15:21
SLitI don't have issues with graphics. Everythig looks ok. It just freezes at some point. I whent on Internet adn tryed15:23
SLitand then tried15:23
SLit to load terminal, and may computer freezed15:23
SLitAlso when I try to install15:24
phillwthe video flashing seems to be a the cause of your freeze.15:24
phillwget the video to work and you may well find it installs fine.15:24
SLitCould be...15:25
phillwbut, the guys on the mailing list are your best bet for help :)15:25
SLitThank you man :-)15:25

mrplCan I upgrade my 13.10 to 12.04.4 LTS by changing the repos and updating/upgrading ?...thanks21:08
gomiboymrpl: no, you can't, you'll have to reinstall... or wait a couple months for 14.04 if you really want a LTS :)21:16
ianorlinno you cannot also lubuntu 12.04 wasn't a long term support release21:16
gomiboyplus ianorlin is right :D21:17
mrplI'll wait....13.10 dosn't expire til july I believe21:18
mrplhttps://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes21:19
mrplI  thionk 12.04  is LTS with the 12.04.4 update21:20
gomiboyubuntu 12.04 is LTS, but *lubuntu* 12.04  is not... i can't even remember why, but that's it21:21
mrploh...I forgot that rumor....21:22
phillwthor480: yes, it was a more of a typo as he was rushing :)21:22
phillwgomiboy: 2 reasons why lubuntu 12.04 is not lts... 1) we lacked man power 2) we were not permitted it be lts even if he had man power :)21:23
phillws/he/we21:23
mrplnot permitted ?21:23
phillwyou need to have 2 releases before you can have lts. 12.04 was our 2nd release and thus not elligible to be lts21:24
mrplmaybe 14.04 then ?21:25
phillw14.04 IS to be LTS :)21:25
mrplif manpower permits?21:25
phillwthat is why it is purely a bug fix of 13.10 (our stable beta of 14,04).21:25
thor480phillw: :-D21:27
gomiboymrpl: if you can't wait there is http://lxle.net/ but don't come here asking for help then, it's absolutely unofficial ;)21:27
phillwhave a read of https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Lubuntu/Testing/14.0421:28
mrplI've been tunning a full install of 13.10 on a 32 gb partioned multiboot micro sd card since October 201321:28
mrplto see how long til the write back wear and tear slows me down, so far so good21:29
phillwI've been on 14.04 since before Christmas as my production machine to thoroughly soak test it ready for LTS.... It's bomb proof :D21:29
mrplOur first LTS nice21:30
ianorlinI installed it on an external hard drive on new years day21:30
mrpl2.5 " in a case ?21:31
ianorlinyeah got two of them for my birthday last year21:33
mrplthat's pretty ok21:33
mrplI have a hdd-less laptop so use the boot from portable device, the smaller in size the better21:36
mrpllubuntu runs the best from a full install , better than mint lxde ,crunchbang21:37
