Potato_Power | Hello! I have several Fujitsu S Series laptop computers. I installed Lubuntu onto them (512MB of Ram, Pentium III M, 30gb IDE), but sometimes the screen freezes | 04:14 |

Unit193 | Well that's fun. Live CD? Tried nomodeset? | 04:23 |
Potato_Power | I am a bit of a noob to Linux | 04:25 |
Potato_Power | nomodeset? | 04:25 |
Unit193 | If it's a live CD, it's in the F6 boot options. | 04:27 |
Unit193 | !nomodeset | 04:27 |
ubottu | 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 | 04:27 |
Potato_Power | okay | 04:40 |
Potato_Power | The graphical glitch only occurs after the desktop is loaded. | 04:40 |
Potato_Power | Sorry for taking so long | 04:40 |

maxxa4 | ethernet cable not working, no way to connect to web on that machine | 11:49 |
maxxa4 | just these problems. no other problem detected | 11:49 |
vn151502510 | maybe u should try to re-update again, or boot with last kernel from "Advanced options for Ubuntu" grub menu | 11:52 |
vn151502510 | just my opinion. waiting some pros | 11:53 |

melodie | maxxa4 which version of the distro? | 11:56 |
melodie | and which kernel? | 11:57 |

maxxa4 | how to access grub menu with "Advanced options for LUBUNTU" ? | 12:27 |
maxxa4 | I only see "press f2 for setup" | 12:27 |
maxxa4 | vn151502510: ? | 12:28 |
vn151502510 | if u update a kernel, there is a advanced options in grub menu, in updated machine | 12:29 |
maxxa4 | i did all updates, not sure if kernel update was there | 12:30 |
maxxa4 | but i dont see this grub menu at boot | 12:30 |
maxxa4 | maybe i need to press shift or something ? | 12:30 |
vn151502510 | try it | 12:31 |
maxxa4 | ok, be back in a bit | 12:31 |
maxxa4 | what can i try other than shift? | 12:31 |
maxxa4 | tab? | 12:31 |
maxxa4 | Esc? | 12:31 |
maxxa4 | what? | 12:31 |
vn151502510 | not sure, my default is always 10s waiting for grub menu | 12:32 |
vn151502510 | https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2 | 12:32 |
maxxa4 | maybe there's a difference between ubuntu and lubuntu? | 12:32 |
maxxa4 | be back | 12:32 |
vn151502510 | lubuntu, but in menu, it is "Advanced options for Ubuntu" | 12:33 |
maxxa4 | vn151502510: thanks man (or woman) . you soved my problem | 12:43 |
maxxa4 | problem is with kernel 3.11.0-18 | 12:44 |
maxxa4 | everything works well with 3.11.0-17 | 12:44 |
maxxa4 | so i suppose 3.11.0-18 is a bad kernel update | 12:45 |
maxxa4 | do i need to do something or do i just go on using the old kernel and ignore the issue? | 12:47 |
maxxa4 | by the way the way to get gurb menu to show was holding shift key | 12:48 |
maxxa4 | on my machine at least | 12:48 |
vn151502510 | I dont know how to report, really, sorry. But I think u should change the GRUB_DEFAULT in /boot/grub/grub.cfg | 12:49 |
maxxa4 | ok thanks again | 12:49 |
maxxa4 | in what part of the world are you? (if i may ask) | 12:50 |
vn151502510 | me, from Vietnam | 12:51 |
maxxa4 | me, from Italy | 12:51 |
maxxa4 | nice :) | 12:51 |
vn151502510 | no distance | 12:51 |
maxxa4 | thanks and have a good day :) | 12:52 |
vn151502510 | same to u | 12:52 |
Mikaela | I think that you should edit /etc/default/grub and then run update-grub as root to update /boot/grub/grub.cfg | 12:52 |
Mikaela | Otherwise your modifications disappear when you update grub next time or kernel upgrade does. | 12:52 |
vn151502510 | good point | 12:52 |
Mikaela | Or alternatively you could edit something in /etc/grub.d/ and then run update-grub as root. | 12:52 |
maxxa4 | what about just waiting for new updates that will correct the bug? will this do it? | 12:54 |
Mikaela | Which bug? | 12:56 |
Mikaela | And is it reported to launchpad? | 12:56 |
maxxa4 | 3.11.0-18 is bad kernel ... it got me disconnected (ethernet connection not working) and dismoused (mouse not working) | 12:57 |
maxxa4 | not reported (at least not from me) | 12:58 |
maxxa4 | will maybe see how to do it later | 12:58 |
maxxa4 | do you need an account or something? | 12:59 |
Mikaela | If there isn't report, run "ubuntu-bug <package>" in terminal and it should tell you how. | 12:59 |
Mikaela | Yes, you need Launchpad/Ubuntu account, same as you use with Ubuntu ONE if you use it. | 12:59 |
maxxa4 | ok thanks to all you gentle helpers around the world :) (where are you Mikaela if i may ask?) | 13:01 |
Mikaela | You're welcome :) I'm in Kotka, Finland. | 13:01 |
maxxa4 | LOVE SUOMI :) | 13:02 |
maxxa4 | bye | 13:02 |
Mikaela | Bye :) | 13:03 |
Osmodivs | There are some bugs that are really need to be fixed. I cut and past an ISO file from my HDD to a USB USB stick, for some reason, it tells it cannot do the operation, and then the ISO file is missing in my HDD. I have plenty of space on my USB sitck, and I am moving other files here, so I don't think is the USB | 15:50 |
Osmodivs | Lubuntu just lost my data. | 15:50 |
Osmodivs | this should be documented: if you copy-paste, and open one of the folders of the destination, Lubuntu will crash and close all windows and loose your data, it just happen again with pictures :( | 16:06 |
Osmodivs | 12.04.4 is sure buggy as hell. | 16:07 |
Osmodivs | Is there a Lubuntu developers room where I can properly complain about this buggy OS? | 16:16 |
Mikaela | Osmodivs: Try #ubuntu+1 | 16:19 |
Osmodivs | cool | 16:29 |
calimero_82 | hello guys,doesn't work any video on youtube, i've lubu 13.10 | 20:21 |
ianorlin | !flash | 20:22 |
ubottu | To install Flash see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/Flash - See also !Restricted and !Gnash | 20:22 |
phillw | calimero_82: install lubuntu-restricted extras if you have not already done so. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats#Manual_Install | 20:23 |
calimero_82 | thanka phillw | 20:29 |
calimero_82 | !Gnash | 20:59 |
ubottu | Gnash is an open-source Flash replacement. It is still beta software. For current status or for more info http://www.gnu.org/software/gnash/ | 20:59 |
calimero_82 | maybe doesn't work my grapic card video driver? i've nvidia | 21:03 |
melodie | calimero_82 yes and it's perfectly safe to use the full span of the cpu resources | 21:03 |
melodie | the gpu does not really matter, it will use all cpu and gpu also if it can* | 21:03 |
melodie | unless they did serious progress since a pair of years | 21:04 |
calimero_82 | so what should i do? | 21:06 |
calimero_82 | i don't find restricted extras in lubu center | 21:06 |
phillw | calimero_82: open a terminal session and type in | 21:17 |
phillw | sudo apt-get install lubuntu-restricted-extras | 21:17 |
phillw | hit enter and put in your password | 21:17 |
melodie | hi phillw ! | 21:18 |
phillw | hi melodie | 21:18 |
melodie | I am currently inside a Lubuntu 12.04 64bits, temporarily | 21:19 |
melodie | heading to your chan | 21:19 |
phillw | melodie: ouch... quite outdated now :( | 21:19 |
melodie | phillw I have updated it | 21:21 |
melodie | however I can change, customize things, it won't keep it all | 21:22 |
melodie | lxpanel doesn't want to stay with 4 desktops when I tell it to, does not want to keep the change of background... :/ | 21:22 |
melodie | I wonder how the latest Lubuntu are in this regard? | 21:22 |
phillw | the config file system has changed since 12.04 | 21:23 |
henryC | I tried to lubuntu 14.04 over kubuntu 14.04 and I only get "Invalid Password". I tried fresh install, delete everything, same problem. Any ideas? | 23:32 |
henryC | *to install* | 23:32 |
ianorlin | invalid password at login screen? | 23:37 |
henryC | sorry, solved I think, please disregard. | 23:38 |
henryC | Hm, logged in but didn't get far. I rarely use this old laptop so I wanted to try lubuntu to save resources. Very first thing I tried was running Firefox to download Google. Crashes immediately, invalid string constant "resize-grip". I pulled the daily build just a couple hours ago. I see someone posted this prob. to launchpad on Feb. 23. Suggestions? | 23:45 |
phillw | henryC: use lubuntu software centre to grab chromium | 23:48 |
henryC | although, of course I first tried apt-get and it was not found. I'm making mistakes. I'm not feeling well. Thanks I'll try it. | 23:48 |
Unit193 | apt-get update, then install. | 23:49 |
henryC | hm yeah I guess I was trying for google-chrome-beta, forgot about the ppa stuff. I'm kind of going back and forth from my desktop to laptop until I can at least have a browser. | 23:52 |
henryC | I was hoping that using lubuntu and trying jupiter might give me more than the sad 2 hours I get out of this old Dell Inspiron battery life. | 23:55 |
henryC | google-chrome-beta immediately core dumps. apt-get install chromium only shows some bsu candidate, apparently something having nothing to do with the browser in question. | 23:59 |
