| Osmodivs | hello. I am using Lubuntu 12.04 32 bits. For some strange reason my mouse started to act weird. It moves on its own, I can barely navigate on the screen, automatically keeps opening menus like if I was using the right button, it is not the ouse because I have tried another mouse and still behaves this weird, I have rebooted a couple of times with hope the problem would just dissapear, but no. Any way to find out whats goi | 03:09 |
|---|---|---|
| Osmodivs | n on? | 03:09 |
| holstein | Osmodivs: technically, lubuntu 12.04 is not an LTS | 03:11 |
| Osmodivs | holstein, So.. Am I screwd? | 03:11 |
| holstein | what i would do is, try and confirm that its not hardware.. motherboard, etc | 03:11 |
| holstein | then, i would try a live CD and remove the installed OS from the equation | 03:12 |
| Osmodivs | you mean a fresh install? | 03:13 |
| holstein | Osmodivs: what i mean is, run the live CD | 03:13 |
| holstein | Osmodivs: test with the live CD.. not the installed operating system | 03:13 |
| Osmodivs | oh,ok | 03:13 |
| holstein | Osmodivs: if the mouse is still "odd" with a live CD, then, you can stop messing with the current lubuntu 12.04 to "fix" something | 03:13 |
| holstein | preferrably, it would be the same installation media you used in the first place, since you know how that used to support that hardware | 03:14 |
| Osmodivs | holstein, All I have is a Opneartist Live USB stick, but I think is a way to test | 03:15 |
| Osmodivs | I'll be right back. | 03:15 |
| holstein | Osmodivs: as long as it *has* supported that hardware before | 03:15 |
| fishcooker | hello there.. im new on lubuntu | 03:27 |
| fishcooker | there is some process that i want to disable .. i try it from update-rc.d but no luck | 03:33 |
| fishcooker | the process still up and running | 03:33 |
| hero | y | 03:36 |
| hero | Is my rdwareha | 03:36 |
| hero | hardware | 03:36 |
| hero | I am ouse moy and mCDe n a Liv | 03:36 |
| fishcooker | what happen hero | 03:37 |
| fishcooker | ? | 03:37 |
| hero | I am in a LiveCD and my mouse queeps acting weird | 03:37 |
| hero | Yep, my hardware is f*****up | 03:37 |
| hero | And I was blaming Lubuntu >D | 03:38 |
| Unit193 | fishcooker: What application? There's also a "Services and Startup" in the preferences. | 03:38 |
| fishcooker | mouse usb? | 03:38 |
| fishcooker | yes Unit193 bluetootd still up and running also modem manager | 03:39 |
| fishcooker | i don't use it at all | 03:39 |
| hero | Weird thing is, the PS2 conection and a wireless begave the same, as if the whole MoBo got possesed by a virus | 03:39 |
| fishcooker | would you try usb mouse, hero? | 03:39 |
| hero | fishcooker, Already did, a Wirelss and a PS2 | 03:40 |
| fishcooker | ypbind cups also | 03:40 |
| hero | Maybe after I downloaded the Box and Icon theme... | 03:40 |
| hero | I dont know, there is malware out there... | 03:41 |
| fishcooker | if you have problem about hardware try to update the newest kernel first | 03:41 |
| hero | fishcooker, I might do that | 03:41 |
| fishcooker | im using lubuntu for command line only Unit193 | 03:41 |
| Unit193 | Ah, I see. | 03:41 |
| fishcooker | that's why i want to disable unused those process | 03:41 |
| hero | fishcooker, Well, I need a mouse for 3d modeling in Blender :( | 03:42 |
| hero | oh... you where talking to Unit193 | 03:42 |
| hero | :D | 03:42 |
| Unit193 | fishcooker: echo manual | sudo tee /etc/init/modemmanager.conf.override | 03:43 |
| Unit193 | (Don't know what bluetooth uses, don't have it.) | 03:43 |
| fishcooker | what's that command for , Unit193 | 03:47 |
| fishcooker | i don't have modem*manager file | 03:47 |
| Unit193 | That sets the upstart job to be started manually rather than automatic. | 03:48 |
| fishcooker | ok ic | 03:48 |
| fishcooker | but how about bluetoothd? | 03:48 |
| fishcooker | also ypbind | 03:49 |
| Unit193 | I don't have those so don't know what they use. Chance you can just remove? | 03:50 |
| fishcooker | i will | 03:50 |
| fishcooker | how about you hero | 03:51 |
| hero | fishcooker, What about me? | 03:51 |
| fishcooker | have u update your kernel.. | 03:53 |
| fishcooker | or just reinstall it for instant solution | 03:54 |
| fishcooker | because you said that your mouse had worked before, right? | 03:54 |
| hero | fishcooker, well, I guess the reinstalation is the solution since I upgraded the kernel like a day ago | 03:54 |
| hero | I dunno, it must be the hardware | 03:54 |
| fishcooker | if wireless/ps2 doesnt work just buy the "cheap" usb mouse | 03:55 |
| fishcooker | :-D | 03:55 |
| hero | first I break 13.10 64 bits and now this 12.04, this was my last HDD | 03:55 |
| fishcooker | i stay with 12.04 | 03:55 |
| fishcooker | for stability and "long life"support | 03:56 |
| hero | I'll wait for 14.04 to do a fresh install, I'll retir from PC for a few months | 03:56 |
| lancelot_ | Hello, I can't acces youtube neither from chromium nor firefox... | 06:01 |
| lancelot_ | Do you know how to solve it? | 06:02 |
| Noskcaj | lancelot_, try #ubuntu | 06:24 |
| lancelot_ | Ok... | 06:24 |
| Unit193 | Noskcaj: Could at least ask if he has flash... | 06:25 |
| Noskcaj | Unit193, good point, but i'm not paying enough attention to irc to helo | 06:26 |
| Noskcaj | *help | 06:26 |
| Noskcaj | lancelot_, Do you have flash player installed? | 06:26 |
| lancelot_ | I seem to have it, because dailymotion.com is displaying a video... | 06:27 |
| lancelot_ | With no problem. | 06:27 |
| lancelot_ | What happens is that I cannot enter youtube at all | 06:27 |
| lancelot_ | Firefox can't find the server at www.youtube.com | 06:28 |
| Noskcaj | oh. I think it might be blocked for some reason then | 06:28 |
| lancelot_ | chromium: This webpage is not available | 06:28 |
| lancelot_ | Strange. | 06:28 |
| lancelot_ | Noskaj, I got it, Rikai at computerhope solved it.It had to do with DNS.It's seems to be a bug on Lubuntu 13.10, and maybe Ubuntu too. | 07:19 |
| Unit193 | Wouldn't that be more with your ISP? | 07:25 |
| Unit193 | Using Google's DNS now? | 07:25 |
| lancelot_ | Unit, I really don't know, Rikai from computer hope guided me trough that. | 07:41 |
| lancelot_ | Unit193, I did nano /etc/resolv.conf | 07:46 |
| lancelot_ | And then changed the dns address and got it working.I've been asking this many times here and in ubuntu and no one knew or answered. | 07:47 |
| Unit193 | So you changed your nameserver, but that's not going to stay changed because Ubuntu (And Lubuntu) use resolvconf. | 07:47 |
| lancelot_ | Oh, so maybe after a system restart I get the problem again? | 07:48 |
| Unit193 | (To do that you'd need to hit the "edit" button on the network icon and change it to DHCP for "Addresses only", and enter the DNS server there.) | 07:49 |
| Unit193 | Likely, if your default DNS server has issues. | 07:49 |
| lancelot_ | Ok...I'll take that in count. | 07:50 |
| lancelot_ | Can't find that, Unit193. | 07:52 |
| Unit193 | Network icon -> Edit, then select your connection and hit Edit, switch to IPv4 settings, select DCHP (Addresses only) and change DNS Servers. | 07:53 |
| lancelot_ | Got it, Unit193. | 07:54 |
| lancelot_ | I hope it works.. | 07:54 |

| Waltraud | Hello! i updated from lubuntu 12.10 to 13.10 - now i cannot change my wallpaper nor do i see any of the items in ~/Desktop. Also, lxpanel does not start at login (had to put it in autostart manually). | 17:58 |
| Waltraud | i've tried reinstalling lxde lxappearance and such... | 17:58 |
| ianorlin | to chnage wallpaper there is pcmanfm --desktop-pref from the terminal or menu prefrences desktop prefrences you can also ues pcmanfm -w file if you have a specific picture you want to use | 19:08 |
| ianorlin | did you log into openbox is my other question as that just has a black wallpaper | 19:09 |
| ianorlin | and no panel by defualt | 19:09 |
| phillw1 | Waltraud: there is no upgrade route from 12/10 to 13.10, you HAVE to go 12.10 --> 13.04 --> 13.10. If the machine is unhappy, that will most likely be why. | 19:57 |
| Guest12390i | Hello | 20:04 |
| Guest12390i | i would need your help | 20:04 |
| Guest12390i | Iam using the newest lubuntu version for a few days now but today i restartet and it just loads to the splash screen with the dots | 20:05 |
| Guest12390i | an doesnt makes more just moving the dots | 20:05 |
| Guest12390i | when i press f1 the last thing it sayss is something like "restore solver state" | 20:05 |
| Guest12390i | btw im using a lubuntu live cd atm | 20:05 |
| phillw | Guest12390i: use alt-F1 to get to terminal | 20:05 |
| Guest12390i | oh okay | 20:06 |
| Guest12390i | can i install irssi there and come back here? | 20:06 |
| Guest12390i | or its just a limited terminal? | 20:06 |
| phillw | re-boot, use that to get to terminal and issue a sudo apt-get update and sudo apt-get upgrade | 20:06 |
| Guest12390i | ok i try | 20:07 |
| Guest12390i | brb | 20:07 |
| phillw | if you cannot get past boot, it depends on the error.... | 20:07 |
| darktomas | Re | 20:21 |
| darktomas | <--- Guest12390i | 20:21 |
| phillw | darktomas: you back all updated? :) | 20:21 |
| darktomas | phillw: Thanks for the alt f1 thing i tryd what you said it just updatet dropbox | 20:22 |
| phillw | darktomas: when using trial builds, please do be careful not to accept partial updates! | 20:22 |
| darktomas | i looked again what happend when i opressed f1 in the splashscreen there was 2 fails 1 at "lightdm" the second at "plymouth" | 20:22 |
| darktomas | the last thing it was doing was stopping mount network filesystem | 20:23 |
| phillw | darktomas: one other strong word of advice..... make home a seperate partition! | 20:23 |
| darktomas | phillw: im a linux beginner sry which trialbuild you mean? | 20:23 |
| darktomas | phillw: ok :( i think its too late now | 20:24 |
| phillw | darktomas: which newest version? 13.10 release has some glitches :) | 20:24 |
| darktomas | ah okay | 20:24 |
| phillw | but making a seprate home is not too difficult... just a little involved. | 20:25 |
| darktomas | i installed a few desktop envoirements (xubuntu , kubuntu ,cinamon) and uninstalled them maybe there happend an error? | 20:25 |
| darktomas | *problem | 20:25 |
| darktomas | can i look into some logfile? | 20:26 |
| phillw | who know... but having a /home on a different partition does make trying things much easier :) https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Partitioning/Home/Moving | 20:26 |
| darktomas | oh sry i forgot to say im in the terminal it still want boot | 20:27 |
| phillw | All people who like to 'tinker' get one.... It is part of the debian installer, but not ubuntu. | 20:27 |
| phillw | darktomas: then how did you launch IRC chat? | 20:28 |
| darktomas | phillw: like you said alt f1 then i installed irrsi | 20:28 |
| darktomas | irssi* | 20:29 |
| phillw | have you done sudo apt-get update and sudo apt-get upgrade | 20:29 |
| darktomas | phillw: yes | 20:29 |
| darktomas | and then rebootet nothing | 20:29 |
| phillw | try startlubuntu | 20:30 |
| darktomas | ok wait | 20:30 |
| darktomas | phillw: command not found | 20:31 |
| darktomas | phillw: oh my fail i tried sudo startlubuntu | 20:32 |
| darktomas | phillw: without sudo it says i have to install lubuntu-default-settings | 20:32 |
| darktomas | i try | 20:32 |
| phillw | does startx work ? | 20:33 |
| darktomas | hm okay it says i have the newest version already | 20:33 |
| darktomas | phillw: no i get an blackscreen and then i cant do anything | 20:33 |
| darktomas | i have to restart then to start alt - f1 terminal again | 20:34 |
| phillw | darktomas: sorry, sister was on phone | 20:41 |
| phillw | I'm running 14.04, so have no real experience of 13.10 | 20:42 |
| darktomas_ | phillw: im in lxde now :d | 20:42 |
| darktomas_ | :D* | 20:43 |
| phillw | an improvement :) | 20:43 |
| darktomas_ | phillw: i tried sudo lxdm that worked | 20:44 |
| phillw | darktomas do have a look at making a seperate /home partition... You've already shown that you like to tinker :) | 20:44 |
| phillw | darktomas do that, and then ping me on #phillw and I'll tell you the simple steps to upgrade to 14.04 test version..... I know you'll love it! | 20:45 |
| darktomas_ | phillw: yea but first i try to understand why i have no sound | 20:45 |
| darktomas_ | phillw: okay | 20:46 |
| phillw | sound issues are usually driver related... as 14.04 is so close we are busy on that. put 14.04 onto your machne once you have /home partition | 20:47 |
| phillw | running around solving 13.10 issues, at this stage is wasteful..... popping on 14.04 will support you for 5 years, although, knowing the little I do..... You will be playing with lubuntu 14.10 :) | 20:49 |
| darktomas_ | phillw: okay | 20:49 |
| phillw | darktomas do https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Partitioning/Home/Moving then just ping me... Oh, and as the borg say 'You will be assimilated, resistance is futile' :) | 20:51 |
| phillw | I have a reboor to do, then s suite of tests to carry out for 14.04 lubuntu. | 20:52 |
