wxl | !nomodeset | claude_ | 00:06 |
ubottu | claude_: A common kernel (boot)parameter is nomodeset, which is needed for some graphic cards that otherwise boot into a black screen or show corrupted splash screen. See http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1613132 on how to use this parameter | 00:06 |
claude_ | oh ok I will look at that thread now... but this would explain also why things hangs in the end? | 00:07 |
claude_ | With Lubuntu 13.04 and 13.10, I don't have the screen that turn off at the beginning of the boot process unlike now | 00:07 |
claude_ | ok | 00:16 |
claude_ | I see how its done... I'm going to do that and see if this will fix the issue :) | 00:16 |
holstein | claude_: how did the hard drive test go? | 00:18 |
claude_ | oh the hard drive should be fine | 00:18 |
claude_ | I tested it during the past month | 00:18 |
holstein | what you are showing me could be failing hardware | 00:18 |
claude_ | it had no bad sector at all, its almost new | 00:18 |
claude_ | yeah I thought that too | 00:18 |
holstein | when they are almost new is when they are most likely to fail | 00:19 |
claude_ | but there is something that makes me think that it could be not... | 00:19 |
claude_ | Because when I boot into rescue mode | 00:19 |
holstein | you can google search that, and consider testing so that you *know* for certain | 00:19 |
claude_ | and then I select "resume", everything goes fine | 00:19 |
holstein | claude_: lubuntu 12.04 is technically not supported any longer | 00:19 |
claude_ | when I said new... well not really new.. like 7-8 months old. but you could be right too | 00:20 |
claude_ | yeah can't wait to see 14.04 LTS :D | 00:20 |
claude_ | 13.04 was probably the most stable for me but there was some random bugs (just small bugs although... nothing too disturbing) | 00:21 |
claude_ | I'll do what wxl said to me to see if this will change something I will now reboot| | 00:21 |
claude_ | Thanks for all your support this is really awesome | 00:21 |
holstein | claude_: whats that? | 00:21 |
holstein | claude_: nomodeset? | 00:21 |
claude_ | yeah | 00:21 |
holstein | claude_: i suggested that when you first joined | 00:22 |
claude_ | oooh | 00:22 |
holstein | claude_: you should have already tried it | 00:22 |
claude_ | maybe I completely didn't see it | 00:22 |
claude_ | my bad :S | 00:22 |
claude_ | sorry about that | 00:22 |
holstein | claude_: and the vesa driver.. and tested the hard drive.. and tried 13.10.. and/or 14.04 | 00:22 |
claude_ | the graphic driver that I'm using now by the way is ... the 304 series of Nvidia | 00:22 |
holstein | ok | 00:23 |
holstein | vesa is another one you can try | 00:23 |
holstein | theres an open one.. and ppa's with othe drivers | 00:23 |
claude_ | to get those 304 drivers I think I typed nvidia-current-updates | 00:23 |
claude_ | that version | 00:23 |
claude_ | so this should be 304 updates | 00:23 |
claude_ | ok I'll go reboot with this new nomodeset setting :) See you soon | 00:24 |
holstein | youd have to ask nvidia. and with the response i usually get, i just troubleshoot on my own | 00:24 |
holstein | could have been someone else i suggested nomodeset to earlier.. but, try it :) | 00:24 |
holstein | claude_: and good luck! | 00:25 |
claude_ | haha yep I will let you know what happen | 00:25 |
claude_ | brb | 00:25 |
claude_ | Hello | 01:13 |
wxl | any luck yet, claude_ ? | 01:13 |
claude_ | crap... I struggled SO MUCH to come back here | 01:13 |
claude_ | I had to boot from my live Ubuntu USB key | 01:13 |
claude_ | in order to be able to boot into rescue mode (I changed the entry for the default OS in the grub.cfg file to do that) | 01:14 |
claude_ | and now | 01:14 |
claude_ | ok just before I have to say this | 01:14 |
claude_ | so I'm here now because I was able to boot with the rescue mode | 01:14 |
claude_ | here is the process | 01:14 |
claude_ | that I used | 01:14 |
claude_ | I changed "GRUB_DEFAULT=0" to "GRUB_DEFAULT=1" and then I did "update-grub" in order to be able to boot into rescue mode | 01:15 |
claude_ | then when the blue screen appear to choose what to do, I have simpy chosen "resume" | 01:16 |
claude_ | and now I'm here. But my screen resolution changed from 1440x900 to a lower one... certainly 800x600 now | 01:16 |
wxl | so did nomodeset fix anything or not? | 01:16 |
claude_ | nop it didnt do anything | 01:17 |
wxl | ok well that's out | 01:17 |
wxl | but i don't doubt it's a video issue of some kind | 01:17 |
wxl | maybe try video=ofonly as a boot parameter and see if that doesn't fix it | 01:17 |
claude_ | so for example: GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash video=ofonly" ? | 01:18 |
wxl | yep | 01:18 |
claude_ | ok what will this do exactly? Something like choosing a generic VGA driver? | 01:18 |
claude_ | will try that | 01:18 |
wxl | yeah | 01:19 |
claude_ | thats weird that my screen resolution isnt the same now | 01:19 |
claude_ | and when I start "nvidia-settings", all the tabs disappeared instead of 2 | 01:19 |
claude_ | alright I will do this now | 01:19 |
wxl | have you tried the open source driver? nouveau? | 01:19 |
wxl | !nouveau | 01:19 |
ubottu | nouveau is an open-source nvidia driver included by default since Ubuntu 10.04. Currently, 3D rendering is only partially supported. More information can be found at http://nouveau.freedesktop.org/wiki/ | See !nvidia for the closed-source Nvidia driver. | 01:19 |
claude_ | oh I'm going to read that now | 01:20 |
claude_ | I dont think so | 01:20 |
wxl | that may be another idea too | 01:20 |
claude_ | is there any command line we can type for that? Something like sudo apt-get nvidia-nouveau? | 01:21 |
claude_ | oh I would have to purge my nvidia drivers before installing new one I think... isn't it? | 01:21 |
claude_ | I will try video=ofonly first | 01:21 |
claude_ | see you soon | 01:21 |
=== yofel_ is now known as yofel | ||
claude_ | actual result: First boot: it worked. I rebooted. System hung at the same place. I powered off the PC. I started it. System boots fully. | 01:30 |
wxl | you need to make it permanent in grub settings | 01:31 |
claude_ | in /etc/default/grub ? | 01:31 |
wxl | !grub | 01:31 |
ubottu | GRUB2 is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost GRUB after installing Windows? See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestoreGrub - For more information and troubleshooting for GRUB2 please refer to https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2 | 01:31 |
wxl | that should be helpful enough (the 2nd) | 01:32 |
claude_ | ok I will take a look. What I just did is... I changed the line in /etc/default/grub for "GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash video=ofonly" then I did grub-updates and rebooted | 01:33 |
Unit193 | update-grub I hope? | 01:33 |
claude_ | oops yes you are right | 01:37 |
claude_ | thats what I did yep | 01:38 |
claude_ | sometimes I type the contrary but the command prompt tells me that I'm wrong when I do so I type it correctly | 01:38 |
claude_ | according to what I read so far, I think the last change I've done was done "permanantly" by editing the grub file in /etc/default | 01:48 |
claude_ | there is something I could do maybe... "Boot-Repair " and showing you the file that will be created | 01:49 |
claude_ | in my grub.cfg file, I see at many times "insmod ext2" ... I have no ext2 partitions in my hard drive... just ext4 | 01:55 |
claude_ | not sure if this really matter | 01:55 |
johnakabean | hello, I need to get fancontrol installed WITHOUT the gui; however, apt-get refuses to install configuration file. Laptop has bios problem where fan doesnt run with "automatic" mode; I have it sitting on top of my desktop, with top desktop fan blowing through the vent where it sucks in.....its working :) | 02:26 |
johnakabean | install fails with trying to put xserver on there, dependency | 02:26 |
johnakabean | i try to run it and it says "cant find configuration file" | 02:26 |
johnakabean | i just tried putting ssh server on there and it fails with "xserver" dependency | 02:29 |
Unit193 | Uhhh.. Not for me? | 02:29 |
johnakabean | ? | 02:35 |
johnakabean | where is the default config file for fancontrol? | 02:35 |
johnakabean | so i can type from this screen into that one | 02:35 |
johnakabean | nevermind, ssh finished, logged in from here | 02:36 |
claude_ | seems like the nouevau driver make everything stay stable | 02:47 |
claude_ | thats so weird | 02:47 |
claude_ | so this may have to do something with Lubuntu 12.04 and the Nvidia Geforce 6150SE chipset | 02:47 |
claude_ | that doesn't happen in 13.04 and 13.10 | 02:48 |
druiz | any spanish user here? | 03:55 |

sgo11 | fine. both google-chrome and firefox got segmentation fault in latest lubuntu trusty release. any ideas? thanks. | 10:18 |
sgo11 | where can I open a bug for such problem? lubuntu trusty 14.04. thanks. | 10:22 |
Unit193 | Likely to get better results and if it's a known issue in #ubuntu+1 | 10:28 |
sgo11 | Unit193, I asked there for a couple of hours. nobody have any ideas. | 10:28 |
Unit193 | Well, it's still night/early morning US/EU time as well. | 10:29 |
sgo11 | Unit193, ok. thanks. I will ask again later. | 10:30 |
mkl_ | Hi, I am pretty new to using linux. I am trying to install Java but I am unsure as to where to start. I had no trouble installing a few things via the 'lubuntu software cente" but Java was not there and it seems a little more counterintuative to me. | 10:51 |
Unit193 | For browsers, get the iced tea plugin, otherwise openjdk-7-jre or such. | 10:52 |
mkl_ | so waht does putting "openjdk-7-jre" in the command line actually instruct the computer to do? | 10:53 |
Mikaela | Nothing. The command is "sudo apt-get install openjdk-7-jre". | 10:55 |
Mikaela | Sudo tells to run it with root priviledges, apt-get install tells it to install package and openjdk-7-jre is the package to install. | 10:56 |
Unit193 | (or, default-jre, but either way the package will be installed.) | 10:57 |
mkl_ | Thanks! I am hoping to be able to install a few other things as well. They may or may not be as straight forward as Java. I was initially trying to install Aladin, a skymap for astronomers. It called for Java as a requirement. I'll have a quick go at installing Aladin again now | 11:02 |
mkl_ | Seems to be working now. The instructions were pretty much to extract it into the desired directory | 11:04 |
mkl_ | Aladin does not appear in my list of applications though. | 11:05 |
mkl_ | It would be nice to add a shortcut to the desktop for Aladin. | 11:05 |
Unit193 | Could do that, and if it's just unpacking, yes there will be no launcher in the applications menu. | 11:06 |
mkl_ | It was suggested that I should be open it by typing "Aladin" into the terminal. However this doesn't seem to work. I guess it had to be in the binary directory? Which directories does the terminal link to? How do I do a root access copy to one of these directories so that I can start Aladin in this way? | 11:08 |
mkl_ | Is that the best way to do this? | 11:09 |
Unit193 | I'd just make a launcher in the applications menu or something if it doesn't have a make install target. | 11:10 |
Unit193 | In the directory you unpacked it, does java -jar aladin.jar (or whatever the file is called) work? | 11:10 |
mkl_ | How do I find out if it has a make install target? I assume that is the equivalent of "openjdk-7-jre" for java | 11:11 |
mkl_ | there is a shell script to open it called Aladin | 11:12 |
mkl_ | #!/bin/sh # Aladin Bourne shell launcher # P.Fernique [CDS] - F.Ochsenbein [CDS] # V1.1 - oct 2010 # V1.0 - april 2009 # JAVA memory max allocation (in Mb) mem=1024 # Via a symbolic link ? prog=$0 while test -h $prog; do prog1=`ls -l $prog | awk '{print $NF}'` if test `expr $prog1 : /` -gt 0; then # Absolute symlink prog="$prog1" else prog=`dirname $prog`/$prog1 # Relative symlink | 11:12 |
mkl_ | The contents of the shell script^^ | 11:12 |
Unit193 | (I'll be disappearing in a minute or so.) That'd only really help if you had make installed. Just launch that? | 11:13 |
Unit193 | That can't be all of it... | 11:14 |
mkl_ | make is a program? | 11:14 |
Unit193 | Yep. | 11:14 |
Unit193 | And, I be out. | 11:15 |
mkl_ | okay, I'll investigate it. I think the chat pae only lets me copy so much. You're right thats not all. thanks for your help! | 11:15 |

mkl_ | I am trying to install something called TopCat. It is not a standard application from the lubuntu software Centre. I have downloaded a .jar file and am unsure as how to proceed | 13:45 |
mkl_ | still pretty new to linux | 13:45 |

mkl_ | hi | 13:55 |
webgen | how do i make windows snap at the edges and change size? | 13:55 |
webgen | like it does on ubuntu and windows etc? | 13:56 |
mkl_ | I am not sure. I would imagine there is an application for it though. I don't think it comes as a standard feature | 14:01 |
mkl_ | I am pretty new to linix by the way, no expert | 14:01 |
mkl_ | I am trying to install something called TopCat. It is not a standard application from the lubuntu software Centre. I have downloaded a .jar file and am unsure as how to proceed | 14:04 |
holstein | mkl_: you shouldnt get a jar from the software center like that | 14:13 |
holstein | mkl_: what are you trying to do? | 14:13 |
mkl_ | it is not from the software centre | 14:13 |
mkl_ | it is a more specialised software for astrophysics | 14:14 |
holstein | http://askubuntu.com/questions/101746/how-can-i-execute-a-jar-file-from-the-terminal | 14:14 |
holstein | doesnt really matter what it is | 14:14 |
holstein | you look up how to run jar files | 14:14 |
holstein | then, if you have issues with it, you ask the maintainers | 14:14 |
holstein | java -jar Minecraft.jar | 14:15 |
holstein | for example | 14:15 |
holstein | !java | 14:15 |
ubottu | To just use java you need a "Java Runtime Environment" (JRE) and/or a browser plugin. If that is not sufficient you will need a "Java Development Kit" (JDK) aka "Software Development Kit" (SDK). Please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java about how to install one of three current implementations. | 14:15 |
mkl_ | I installed Java beforehand | 14:18 |
holstein | sure.. its a requirement.. so you will need to | 14:18 |
mkl_ | Is there a way to add the application to my applications list? | 14:18 |
holstein | mkl_: you can add the command to whatever yo like | 14:18 |
holstein | you* | 14:18 |
mkl_ | so for example how do I add the command to the "education" section when I hit the bottom left ubuntu logo | 14:21 |
holstein | mkl_: just edit the menu and add what you like | 14:21 |
holstein | http://wiki.lxde.org/en/Main_Menu | 14:22 |
holstein | or, use another panel.. or lanucher.. | 14:22 |
mkl_ | Do I copy the whole .jar file in there and I guess a shell script to run "java -jar Minecraft.jar" | 14:22 |
holstein | mkl_: no | 14:23 |
holstein | mkl_: you are asking how to make a launcher.. so just make that | 14:23 |
holstein | mkl_: make a launcher that lanches "java -jar /path/to/whatever.jar" | 14:23 |
mkl_ | So I created the launcher and called it TopCat_Launch. I can't seem to copy it to the applications directory the commend I am using is: cp /home/scrutonm1/MKL_Software/TopCat_Launch /usr/share/applications/TopCat_Launch | 14:50 |
mkl_ | the error is No such file or directory | 14:50 |
vn151502510 | try `cp /home/scrutonm1/MKL_Software/TopCat_Launch /usr/share/applications/` | 14:52 |
mkl_ | cannot stat ‘/home/scrutonm1/MKL_Software/TopCat_Launch’: No such file or directory | 14:53 |
mkl_ | still the same error | 14:53 |
holstein | mkl_: you dont copy it anywhere | 14:55 |
holstein | just make the launcher for it | 14:55 |
mkl_ | I have made the launcher. But I wanted the launcher to apear in the same list as all the other apllications | 14:56 |
mkl_ | so that I could run it as if it was any other application without having to treat it as an exception | 14:57 |
holstein | mkl_: and, you can | 14:58 |
holstein | mkl_: the othes run the same way.. those are just links | 14:58 |
mkl_ | so how do I get the launcher to appear in the list? | 14:58 |
holstein | mkl_: you can do what you are trying to do... you'll just have to keep troubleshooting. or use a "friendlier" and arguably heavier menu | 14:58 |
mkl_ | What do you mean? | 14:59 |
holstein | mkl_: i mean, you can do what you are trying to do.. but you will need to research and learn how | 15:00 |
holstein | mkl_: or, use something else that facilitates these types of changes easier | 15:00 |

wxl | webgen: you mean you've never run mysql and want to know how? | 16:47 |
webgen | wxl well i didnt use terminal to install it so deb package just unpacked it at a random location, i didnt know how to run that one otherwise i know how to run the one that installs from apt-get :P | 16:49 |
webgen | wxl i already installed one from apt-get i got tired of tinkering lol | 16:49 |
wxl | webgen: should be the same. apt-get uses dpkg. | 16:49 |
webgen | wxl it was just 0.1 version lower thats the stupid reason i decided to download the package myself haha | 16:50 |
wxl | webgen: you can see if you succeeded in stalling with dpkg -l | grep -i mysql | 16:52 |
webgen | wxl, uh i dont wanna mess with it anymore, i already installed :S and deleted the downlaoded .deb package | 16:53 |

ubottu | Compiling software from source? Read the tips at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompilingSoftware (But remember to search for pre-built !packages first) | 17:18 |
mkl_ | there is available for download a rpm file. I tried to get that to work too to no avail | 17:19 |
mkl_ | I believe that is a pre built package? | 17:20 |
wxl | no don't bother with the rpm tho alien can convert it maybe | 17:21 |
wxl | !alien | 17:27 |
ubottu | RPM is the RedHat Package Management system. Ubuntu uses !dpkg, not RPM. RPM packages are not supported (the package "alien" can allow installing them, but it's quite dangerous and unsupported) | 17:27 |
mkl_ | well I am glad I aborted mission on that one then. I did nearly install alien. Currently following the steps to instal gcc | 17:28 |
mkl_ | I think that will be my best option. I am not really seeing it prebuilt anywhere thus far | 17:28 |
wxl | compiling is not for the weak but if your patient, it will work | 17:28 |
wxl | did you search on launchpad ppas? | 17:28 |

wxl | oh then there's prolly a ppa | 17:29 |
wxl | not certainly | 17:29 |
wxl | but probably | 17:29 |
mkl_ | what is a ppa? | 17:30 |
mkl_ | please excuse my ignorance | 17:30 |

mkl_ | now to do the same for SExtractor | 17:40 |
wxl | compiling is a good skill to have but generally not necessary | 17:40 |
wxl | you don't even have to search for that | 17:41 |
wxl | !info sextractor | 17:41 |
ubottu | sextractor (source: sextractor): Source extractor for astronomical images. In component universe, is extra. Version 2.8.6+dfsg-1 (saucy), package size 438 kB, installed size 1391 kB | 17:41 |
mkl_ | I don't know that I am up to it just yet. And although I have a keen interest in computer science I have only just taken the plunge yesterday to make my old laptop a dual boot | 17:42 |
wxl | it will come in time | 17:42 |
mkl_ | I have fiddled around with live USB's and I use Linux at work | 17:42 |
wxl | nice | 17:42 |
Natsum | hi guys, is there any lubutnu 13.10 iso which can fit to CD? | 19:04 |

Natsum | thx, I will try | 19:09 |
Natsum | + Does lubuntu have wifi drivers? I have usb wifi card (ratlink) | 19:11 |
guest5691203 | hello | 20:08 |
guest5691203 | the sound preferences dialog in ubuntu has a "Output" tab where you can choose through which output you want to play sound | 20:10 |
guest5691203 | how can this be done in lubuntu? i tried installing pulseaudio + pulseaudio volume control (pavucontrol). but i don't see where and how this setting could be achieved from within pavucontrol | 20:12 |
guest5691203 | is anyone here who knows how to do it? | 20:13 |
=== guest5691203 is now known as LubuntuAudioOutp | ||
Phil42 | guest5691203: you are on the right track. lubuntu ships without pulseaudio | 20:26 |
holstein | LubuntuAudioOutp: you an add pulse it you like | 20:26 |
holstein | if* | 20:27 |
holstein | i have, and have added pavucontrol.. worked OK | 20:27 |
LubuntuAudioOutp | Phil42 & holstein : thx for your replies. but i am talking about this tab: http://i.stack.imgur.com/bV6Ya.png | 20:29 |
LubuntuAudioOutp | in that picture you can see the "play sound through" setting | 20:29 |
LubuntuAudioOutp | where is that setting in pavucontrol? | 20:29 |
holstein | LubuntuAudioOutp: i use pavucontrol | 20:29 |
holstein | LubuntuAudioOutp: i added it | 20:29 |
LubuntuAudioOutp | i can't find it | 20:29 |
LubuntuAudioOutp | yeah, me too, but how do you choose the default output in pavucontrol | 20:30 |
LubuntuAudioOutp | ? | 20:30 |
holstein | LubuntuAudioOutp: cant find it always? or just in lubuntu? or just on that hardware? | 20:32 |
LubuntuAudioOutp | holstein: well, to be a bit more precise: i want a system wide equalizer. pulse audio has a built-in system wide equalizer, see: http://www.webupd8.org/2013/03/install-pulseaudio-with-built-in-system.html | 20:33 |
LubuntuAudioOutp | but to get it to work one must select "FFT based equalizer on Built-in..." as the output, just as described on that page | 20:34 |
holstein | LubuntuAudioOutp: you can add pulse | 20:34 |
holstein | LubuntuAudioOutp: lubuntu doesnt ship with it | 20:35 |
LubuntuAudioOutp | holstein: i already have added pulseaudio + pavucontrol... | 20:35 |
holstein | what i might do is, load up a live CD of xubuntu, install/use pavucontrol.. see if that is meeting your needs on that hardware. add what you like to lubuntu | 20:35 |
holstein | LubuntuAudioOutp: sure.. but, its not meeting your needs.. and why? | 20:35 |
holstein | LubuntuAudioOutp: is it that the device doesnt support alsa? | 20:35 |
holstein | LubuntuAudioOutp: what is preventing you from seeing what you want in pavucontrol? | 20:36 |
holstein | LubuntuAudioOutp: we konw pavucontrol and pulse does what you want.. | 20:36 |
holstein | its either that your device doenst support linux/alsa and *wont* do it.. or, you have improrperly configured pulse or something else | 20:36 |
LubuntuAudioOutp | holstein: well, look, this is what the ubuntu sound preferences look like: http://i.stack.imgur.com/bV6Ya.png - as you can see in that image, it has an option called "play sound through" | 20:38 |
holstein | LubuntuAudioOutp: ubuntu sound prefercnes in the *same* hardware? | 20:38 |
LubuntuAudioOutp | and pavucontrol does not have this option | 20:38 |
holstein | LubuntuAudioOutp: lubuntu *is* ubuntu, friend | 20:38 |
holstein | so, if you have the same version, and the same software from the same repos, it should be the same | 20:38 |
LubuntuAudioOutp | holstein: yes, in the same hardware. | 20:38 |
holstein | if you have lubuntu 13.10, and ubuntu 12.04.. or some other differences.. | 20:38 |
LubuntuAudioOutp | holstein: no. pavucontrol is not the same as the ubuntu sound preferences AFAIK | 20:39 |
holstein | LubuntuAudioOutp: no AFAIK.. confirm | 20:39 |
Phil42 | holstein: there are differences, and audio is different in lubuntu | 20:39 |
holstein | Phil42: sure. but he's trying to add, and says he has added pulse | 20:39 |
holstein | Phil42: the same tools will, or have for me, acted the same | 20:39 |
Phil42 | true | 20:39 |
holstein | they are the same packages from the same repos, at least. assuming configuration | 20:39 |
holstein | LubuntuAudioOutp: so.. ask your self, whats the difference.. find that difference, and rectify | 20:40 |
LubuntuAudioOutp | holstein: the ubuntu sound preferences are different from pavucontrol. just look at them: | 20:41 |
LubuntuAudioOutp | pavucontrol: | 20:41 |
saliko | i had problems in lubuntu when connect audio using BT bluetooth | 20:41 |
holstein | LubuntuAudioOutp: sure.. but pavucontrol does that routing | 20:41 |
LubuntuAudioOutp | http://jan.newmarch.name/LinuxSound/Sampled/PulseAudio/images/pavucontrol.png | 20:41 |
LubuntuAudioOutp | ubuntu sound preferences: | 20:41 |
holstein | LubuntuAudioOutp: and, the audio controls you have in ubuntu are in the repo. and you can add them if you like | 20:41 |
LubuntuAudioOutp | http://i.stack.imgur.com/bV6Ya.png | 20:42 |
holstein | LubuntuAudioOutp: i use pavucontrol to do *exactly* what you are trying to do | 20:42 |
LubuntuAudioOutp | [20:41] <holstein> LubuntuAudioOutp: and, the audio controls you have in ubuntu are in the repo. and you can add them if you like <--- ok that's what i wanted to know. how can i add them to lubuntu? | 20:42 |
holstein | LubuntuAudioOutp: just install them | 20:42 |
LubuntuAudioOutp | [20:42] <holstein> LubuntuAudioOutp: i use pavucontrol to do *exactly* what you are trying to do <--- and how are you doing it? | 20:42 |
holstein | LubuntuAudioOutp: the sources are the same | 20:42 |
LubuntuAudioOutp | [20:42] <holstein> LubuntuAudioOutp: just install them <--- what are they called? | 20:43 |
holstein | LubuntuAudioOutp: you search using the package manager of your choice, and install them | 20:43 |
holstein | LubuntuAudioOutp: i havent used main ubuntu in ages.. but when i want to know *exactly* what is going on, i load a live CD and look in a package manager | 20:43 |
holstein | LubuntuAudioOutp: you may also find that information looking at a package list, or in #ubuntu | 20:43 |
LubuntuAudioOutp | <holstein> LubuntuAudioOutp: i use pavucontrol to do *exactly* what you are trying to do <--- and how are you doing it? | 20:46 |
LubuntuAudioOutp | which tab? which setting? | 20:46 |
