mkl | @wxl Hey again! I was having this issue last night trying to install ds9. Today I thought I would try something else. I think the issue is not specific to ds9 | 07:15 |

FuuuqUmiist | thanks | 15:36 |
imauser | hello what is the root pw on lubuntu live install? | 15:54 |
holstein | imauser: you can sudo | 15:54 |
holstein | imauser: sudo -i for example | 15:54 |
imauser | holstein: sudo wants a pass, too | 15:54 |
imauser | i got user johndoe but am unable to do something with it | 15:55 |
imauser | *him | 15:55 |
holstein | imauser: not on the live CD | 15:55 |
holstein | imauser: you wont have johndoe there | 15:55 |
holstein | !root | 15:55 |
ubottu | Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth... there is no root password. Then you will see that it is 'sudo' that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo | 15:55 |
imauser | well its on my usb, it could be modified by some tool | 15:56 |
holstein | imauser: you could have modified it, sure | 15:56 |
holstein | imauser: but, you likely have a normal install to the stick, and not a live CD | 15:56 |
SonikkuAmerica | imauser: Are you using [ su ] instead of [ sudo ] anyway? | 15:57 |
holstein | imauser: you can, at that point, use the recovery console if you dont konw "johndoe" password | 15:57 |
imauser | nope, i used unetbootin or the usb-live-creator | 15:57 |
holstein | imauser: or? | 15:57 |
imauser | its an older image | 15:57 |
holstein | imauser: im not trying to be combative.. im just seeing a lot of "red flags" here | 15:57 |
SonikkuAmerica | imauser: How old is the image? | 15:58 |
imauser | sorry i absolutely got no idea | 15:58 |
holstein | imauser: download 13.10.. sudo will work | 15:59 |
imauser | can you tell me how to *properly* set up a live usb isntall with persistence and as less bugs as possible? :) | 15:59 |
imauser | i.e. what tool should i choose? | 15:59 |
holstein | imauser: i dont.. i just install to the stick.. i make a normal install to the usb.. i get persistence and a normal install | 15:59 |
imauser | holstein: as long as the 'normal' install wont overwrite my grub | 16:00 |
SonikkuAmerica | imauser: What about GRUB? You should always have the latest GRUB around anyway | 16:01 |
SonikkuAmerica | Oh, you mean the GRUB on your machine | 16:01 |
imauser | SonikkuAmerica: yep | 16:01 |
SonikkuAmerica | imauser: If you install GRUB to the root of the disk you're installing Ubuntu on, it shouldn't overwrite the GRUB on your maching | 16:02 |
holstein | imauser: the installers do what the do | 16:02 |
SonikkuAmerica | *machine | 16:02 |
holstein | imauser: you can choose *not* to overwrite what you like | 16:02 |
imauser | alright then im happy. thanks :) | 16:02 |
holstein | imauser: what do i do? i use an alternate iso, and *dont* install grub, and use boot repair afterwards | 16:02 |
imauser | do you know how to transfer the livesystem to another usb with multiboot for example? | 16:02 |
holstein | or, i install normally on a machine i have sitting around with no hard drives in it | 16:03 |
holstein | https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Boot-Repair | 16:03 |
holstein | imauser: just decide what multiboot you would like to use, and seek support there | 16:03 |
holstein | imauser: i use unetbootin | 16:04 |
holstein | imauser: the iso's are dd copy-able AFAIK.. | 16:04 |
SonikkuAmerica | holstein: Yes, they are. :) | 16:07 |
imauser | holstein: why should i ddcopy the iso if i want the system installed on usb :? | 16:08 |
holstein | imauser: i didnt say, or mean to imply you should | 16:10 |
SonikkuAmerica | !dd | 16:10 |
SonikkuAmerica | ((Oh come on, no factoid on dd?)) | 16:10 |
holstein | imauser: what i do is.. i make a live USB, or use a live CD.. i then install to another USB | 16:10 |
holstein | imauser: dd and unetbootin are ways i make that installer usb stick.. i dont use multiboot | 16:11 |
SonikkuAmerica | Why do I feel like this conversation is becoming circular? I think I'll head off to lunch now. :) | 16:14 |
holstein | SonikkuAmerica: o/ | 16:14 |
SonikkuAmerica | holstein: o/ | 16:14 |
k03ll | whats new in lubuntu 14.04? qt? | 19:14 |
trickyhero | nope no qt | 19:15 |
trickyhero | very little is new, normal GTK LXDE is mostly done, except a new pcmanfm release | 19:15 |
shiner | hey I have a little problem with ubuntu 14.04, just not sure if it's a bug for you guys or lsde, can I get some advice? | 19:20 |
shiner | *lubuntu | 19:20 |
trickyhero | what is it? | 19:21 |
shiner | the lxpanel keeps losing it's background settings on each boot | 19:21 |
ianorlin | which versoin of lubuntu? | 19:22 |
shiner | 14.04 beta 1 | 19:22 |
shiner | there is one other app that seems to lose it's display settings, qbittorent, but I'm not to bothered by that | 19:24 |
ianorlin | I am not sure what was causing that I was having my panel prefrences saved before | 19:44 |
ianorlin | are you logging in to another seisson? | 19:44 |
shiner | logged into another session? | 19:45 |
ianorlin | like when you log in to the netbook or openbox? | 19:45 |
shiner | my panel was fine in 13.10, just noticed it in the beta | 19:45 |
shiner | no, I'm the only user and it happens after a complete reboot | 19:46 |
ianorlin | might be a theme update | 19:46 |
ianorlin | how many times have you rebooted? | 19:46 |
shiner | three or four times today, happened every time | 19:47 |
ianorlin | hmm wiered I don't know what is causing that | 19:57 |
ianorlin | were you using livecd or guest seisson? | 19:58 |
ianorlin | as those don't save changes | 19:58 |
shiner | no it's a full clean install, no multiboot either | 19:59 |
* ianorlin is out of ideas | 20:01 | |
shiner | lol ok, was just tryin to fiugure out where to report it, since it's a 3rd party app | 20:02 |
shiner | thanks for tryin ianorlin :) will go have a look through forums, I'll probably just post the bug on lubuntu though, off for dinner now :) | 20:09 |
