| advx_ | Hi all, Good Morning | 02:00 |
|---|---|---|
| advx_ | I m connected via HDMI to TV, how can I enable audio? | 02:01 |
| holstein | advx_: you may not be able to | 02:02 |
| holstein | advx_: i have found that tied in to the graphics drivers.. though, i have also found it easily able to be enabled as well with pavucontrol using pulseaudio. but, lubuntu doesnt ship with pulse audio | 02:03 |
| holstein | i would refer to... | 02:03 |
| holstein | !audio | 02:03 |
| ubottu | If you're having problems with sound, click the Volume applet, then Sound Preferences, and check your Volume, Hardware, Input, and Output settings. If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !players and !mp3. | 02:03 |
| holstein | i would consider a standard ubuntu live CD, or xubuntu live CD, and test using pulse audio with the pavucontrol tool if necessary | 02:04 |
| advx_ | thanks.. | 02:04 |
| advx_ | should I install pulseaudio? | 02:04 |
| holstein | advx_: i didnt say that | 02:04 |
| holstein | advx_: i suggest testing with pulse live and see if it makes a difference | 02:05 |
| advx_ | whats pulse live | 02:05 |
| holstein | advx_: as i suggested, by downloading a distro that uses pulse, such as xubuntu or the main ubuntu distro.. and just dont install it.. just run it live, and test the HDMI audio | 02:06 |
| holstein | if it works, then, you can easily add pulse to lubuntu | 02:06 |
| advx_ | I m on Intel NUC, DN2820 | 02:06 |
| advx_ | ubuntu 13.10 worked, but xbmc didnt | 02:06 |
| holstein | advx_: xbmc is not ubuntu | 02:06 |
| advx_ | so I m trying lubuntu, xbmc works smoothly | 02:06 |
| holstein | advx_: the xbmc package will be the same in ubuntu and lubuntu | 02:07 |
| advx_ | also audio out on analog 3.5mm is great | 02:07 |
| advx_ | now I m trying HDMI | 02:07 |
| holstein | advx_: so you can get an analog cable, and route it, and not worry with the hdmi audio | 02:07 |
| holstein | advx_: you can install pulse in lubuntu | 02:07 |
| holstein | advx_: you can try live CD's to test if pluse helps | 02:07 |
| advx_ | ok | 02:07 |
| advx_ | lspci show audio device Intel corp. valleyview | 02:25 |
| advx_ | o sorry | 02:25 |
| advx_ | Audio device: Intel Corporation ValleyView High Definition Audio Controller (rev 0c) | 02:25 |
| holstein | advx_: ok | 02:25 |
| holstein | advx_: it may or may not be able to support hdmi output | 02:25 |
| advx_ | :( | 02:26 |
| holstein | advx_: did pulseaudio help? | 02:26 |
| advx_ | added pulse audio and pavcontrol too | 02:26 |
| advx_ | may b a reboot is required | 02:26 |
| holstein | advx_: ok... then, you can try routing with pavucontrol | 02:26 |
| advx_ | ? | 02:26 |
| advx_ | how | 02:26 |
| holstein | advx_: you run the application, friend, and route the output of something to the device you are trying to support | 02:27 |
| holstein | advx_: you stated you had hdmi audio working in linux? | 02:28 |
| advx_ | ok let me reboot | 02:29 |
| advx_ | frst | 02:29 |
| advx_ | bye 4 now, thanks for your help | 02:30 |
| FuuqUmiist | what are the main differnces between 13.10 and 14.04? | 06:10 |
| FuuqUmiist | and is it possible to upgrade from 13.10 to 14.04 without issues | 06:10 |
| wxl | FuuqUmiist: it'll be released mid april with all the official features and potential problems | 06:14 |
| wxl | FuuqUmiist: meanwhile feel free to test! | 06:15 |
| BlitzHere | So, I've got this weird issue on my laptop. I have a USB mouse which works just fine when the laptop is plugged into a power source. However, when the laptop's running off battery power, the mouse switches off in 3 seconds. It works fine when I'm moving it around, but if stop moving it around, it switches off (i.e. the laser goes out). It is possible to wake the mouse back up by clicking one of the buttons though it's still annoying | 06:53 |
| jirido | Hello | 10:08 |
| jirido | Im back with a new Q. How do i make links in terminal clickable? I use bash in guake. | 10:10 |
| === quackgyver_ is now known as quackgyver | ||
| holstein | jirido: i just click on them.. control click usually gets picked up for links in any emulator | 14:23 |
| jirido | Hi. Its just that.. it hapens nothing when i click links in my terminal | 14:24 |
| holstein | jirido: what i would do is right click, and see that the link works | 14:25 |
| holstein | let me link a few here and we can exeriment | 14:25 |
| jirido | OK | 14:25 |
| holstein | https://www.google.com/ | 14:25 |
| holstein | google.com | 14:25 |
| holstein | https://www.google.com/ is clickable for me.. control click opens it.. from terminator | 14:26 |
| holstein | control double click it seems | 14:26 |
| holstein | same in quake | 14:27 |
| jirido | well control click opens it but not the link but a new tab with the start page.. | 14:27 |
| jirido | I would like to set it to open with normal left click | 14:27 |
| holstein | jirido: so, they open, but you would like to open them using a different method? correct? | 14:29 |
| jirido | I had the same in thunderbird before i set it to warn on open http in pref.js. There i was able to choose firerfox | 14:29 |
| holstein | jirido: they are opening in firefox, correct? | 14:30 |
| jirido | yes. no :) It opens in FF but always as start page.. the url gets lost | 14:30 |
| jirido | AND i would like it to work with Left click! | 14:31 |
| holstein | jirido: the url doesnt get lost here | 14:31 |
| jirido | lol | 14:31 |
| holstein | jirido: it open.. control double click.. opens.. no lost url | 14:31 |
| jirido | here it does | 14:31 |
| holstein | jirido: so, try as a different user, try a different url and default browser.. try with a live cd | 14:32 |
| holstein | jirido: then, you can refer to the guake documentation on opening urls | 14:32 |
| jirido | As i said it was the same with thunderbird before | 14:32 |
| holstein | jirido: thunderbird is not the same | 14:33 |
| holstein | jirido: you wont address this in guake with a java script fix | 14:33 |
| jirido | But its the exact same behavior. it opens a new tab, but always with start page.. /no no javascript fix.. rather setting something in bash i would guess | 14:36 |
| holstein | jirido: rather something where i suggested.. in the guake documentation | 14:36 |
| holstein | jirido: its not a lubuntu or lxde application, so, you may address it better in #ubuntu | 14:37 |
| jirido | Guake dont have any settings for default browser as i have looked | 14:37 |
| jirido | OK | 14:38 |
| jirido | I will. | 14:38 |
| holstein | jirido: guake doesnt have any "settings" like that AFAIK.. it will be in its config file *if* they provide that functionality | 14:43 |

| Brutus | hi! | 15:24 |
| Brutus | i have a problem with autostart applications (the same specified here: https://www.mail-archive.com/lubuntu-users@lists.ubuntu.com/msg03158.html); i tried with disable_autostart=false and noticed that update-manager started; now how can i get update-manager running without disable_autostart=false (or how can i check if it's starting)? | 15:31 |
| holstein | Brutus: you could always just script an update as you please | 15:51 |
| utz | Anyone in here ever successful with getting AMD's Catalyst 13.12 on Lubuntu? I was following the directions found here: http://wiki.cchtml.com/index.php/Ubuntu_Quantal_Installation_Guide#Installing_Catalyst_Manually_.28from_AMD.2FATI.27s_site.29 but always got hung up at the "dpkg -i fglrx*.deb" command. It just wouldn't install. | 16:03 |
| holstein | utz: 13.10? | 16:04 |
| holstein | utz: as them if it works.. if it does, it'll work fine | 16:05 |
| holstein | utz: nothing about linux/ubuntu/lubuntu is preventing them from making that aviable to work on it | 16:05 |
| holstein | !amd | 16:05 |
| holstein | !ati | 16:05 |
| ubottu | For Ati/NVidia/Matrox video cards, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VideoDriverHowto | 16:05 |
| holstein | ^ thats what i always refer to | 16:05 |
| utz | Yeah 13.10 | 16:05 |
| utz | K I didn't think so. | 16:06 |
| utz | I wish I copied the log file, let me see if I can find the error code that was in the log file. I was trying installation for a couple hours last night. | 16:06 |
| utz | Trying to get oclhashcat working. | 16:06 |
| utz | Otherwise I would just stick with the opensource drivers, but hashcat requires fglrx (boo!) | 16:08 |
| utz | I'll try the link that you sent me, it looks more promising. Thanks a tons guys! | 16:08 |
| utz | Just out of curiosity, what are the reasons you guys use Lubuntu? | 16:14 |
| holstein | utz: its light.. its open.. the ubuntu base has a large community for support and compatibility.. the core ubuntu and debian are well supported and large in scope in many ways | 16:16 |
| utz | Cool. Pretty much the same reasons I do. I like its lightness, even though the machine I am running is fully capable of running Ubuntu, I choose Lubuntu because I like the DE and it's super light apps. | 16:27 |
| holstein | lubuntu *is* ubuntu | 16:28 |
| utz | Yes you are correct. What I meant was fully capable of running the Ubuntu Unity DE and it's apps. | 16:31 |
| tobyjones8 | Hi | 17:29 |
| tobyjones8 | I have a small problem with Audacious | 17:30 |
| ianorlin | can you explainn what the problem is? | 17:31 |
| tobyjones8 | There seems to be no seek bar | 17:32 |
| tobyjones8 | Gnome MPlayer seems to have one, but I'd prefer to use Audacious because it has the equaliser function | 17:32 |
| tobyjones8 | Is it the case that Audacious has no seek bar anyway and that I'm just being naive, or is there a problem here? | 17:33 |
| ianorlin | are you playing anything on it | 17:34 |
| tobyjones8 | yes | 17:34 |
| tobyjones8 | a playlist with about 1k songs in it | 17:34 |
| ianorlin | what does a seek bar look like again? | 17:34 |
| tobyjones8 | the thing you use to skip through a song | 17:35 |
| tobyjones8 | btw: excuse the noobiness, I've always used ubuntu in the past but moved to lubuntu a few days back | 17:35 |
| tobyjones8 | I'm on saucy, if it makes a difference, and I also installed pulseaudio | 17:36 |
| ianorlin | Do you see a button with a triangle with a with a | to the left of it | 17:37 |
| ianorlin | that will let you skip songs | 17:37 |
| tobyjones8 | nonono | 17:37 |
| tobyjones8 | I'm not trying to skip entire songs | 17:37 |
| ianorlin | oh just parts? | 17:37 |
| tobyjones8 | I want to skip to a certain position in the song | 17:37 |
| tobyjones8 | Yep | 17:37 |
| ianorlin | I am on the beta version now and have that it appears in blue to the right of the skip entire song button | 17:39 |
| tobyjones8 | I don't seem to have that | 17:39 |
| tobyjones8 | Hm, oh well | 17:43 |
| tobyjones8 | I could install VLC, but I want to avoid doing so because I wanna keep my install as light as poss | 17:43 |
| ianorlin | that is true | 17:43 |
| smurfslover | hi, can anyone tell me where lxde stores the suspend command? | 18:24 |
| vn151502510 | dbus-send --system --print-reply --dest="org.freedesktop.UPower" /org/freedesktop/UPower org.freedesktop.UPower.Suspend | 18:27 |
| vn151502510 | just tested | 18:27 |
| Unit193 | pm-suspend, or the dbus logind call. | 18:29 |
| smurfslover | vn151502510, thanks | 18:30 |
| Unit193 | dbus-send --system --print-reply --dest=org.freedesktop.login1 /org/freedesktop/login1 org.freedesktop.login1.Manager.Suspend boolean:true | 18:30 |
| smurfslover | my e19 uses pm-suspend and doesn't wake up properly will try dbus command | 18:30 |
| smurfslover | so which one is the right dbus command? | 18:31 |
| Unit193 | Try both. If one doesn't work, try the other. How does it not come back properly? | 18:31 |
| === smurfie is now known as smurfslover | ||
| smurfslover | Unit193, can be e19 bug trying to pin it down i can file a bugreport | 18:35 |
| Unit193 | smurfslover: Did you disabe apport? Normally it comes up with a problem dialog... | 18:36 |
| Unit193 | smurfslover: You are using Ubuntu, not bodhi or something, right? | 18:36 |
| smurfslover | Unit193, seems like it is e19 bug i all commands work under lxde but not under e19 | 18:51 |
| smurfslover | thanks for your help | 18:51 |
| Unit193 | Sure. | 18:52 |

| MrSavage | I'm having troubles installing guest additions on lubuntu | 20:11 |
| phillw | MrSavage: do you mean virtual box guest additions? | 21:05 |
| MrSavage | yes | 21:10 |
| MrSavage | @ phillw | 21:10 |
| phillw | only add them to the virtual machines, never to your actual machine... It is a guaranteed bork the machine! | 21:11 |
| MrSavage | i am adding it to my virtual machine | 21:12 |
| MrSavage | lubuntu is my virtual machine | 21:12 |
| phillw | MrSavage: you may want to look at kvm which is on your kernel and the gui virt-manager. It has all the functionallity of vbox with the additions, but is totally f/oss. | 21:13 |
| MrSavage | kvm? gui virt-manager? | 21:14 |
| phillw | it is a different system of running virtual machines, but it is built into the kernel. This means it does not require 'guest additions' to get full functionality | 21:15 |
| MrSavage | i want to keep using virtual box | 21:16 |
| phillw | MrSavage: have a look at http://askubuntu.com/questions/22743/how-do-i-install-guest-additions-in-virtualbox | 21:16 |
| phillw | then, the above link should answer your questions | 21:16 |
| phillw | MrSavage: you may wish to bookmark https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VirtualBox | 21:17 |
| MrSavage | i think i already checked that out | 21:17 |
| MrSavage | i'm trying to link the display together | 21:18 |
| MrSavage | so i can resize the vm on will | 21:18 |
| MrSavage | phillw: I'm not installing virtualbox in ubuntu | 21:28 |
| MrSavage | i'm installing guest additions in ubuntu | 21:28 |
| phillw | MrSavage: on the 2nd comment I assume you missed the letter 'l'. To save any further confusion for you, any instructions you find for virtual box that say ubuntu will work on lubuntu, kubuntu, xubuntu etc. etc. The hint is in the buntu part of the name :) | 21:30 |
| MrSavage | why are ubuntu users not as helpful as gentoo users? | 21:31 |
| MrSavage | in-fact i think i recieved a deliberate hate PM as well | 21:31 |
| MrSavage | i tried asking #ubuntu but they just pointed out random links that didn't solve the issue | 21:31 |
| phillw | MrSavage: if you have a complaint against someone, raise it with a channel moderator, after that you can ask the community council to get involved. Bad behaviour can result in a ban. | 21:32 |
| phillw | I'm not a fan of #ubuntu - it is too popular for its own good and has too many people asking questions, which makes it hard to keep track of things | 21:34 |
| phillw | MrSavage: sadly, I do not use virtual box any longer as day to day. I do keep it installed so as to be able to test on it. As I was told a couple of years ago... people learn on vBox and then move onto virsh and virt-manager :) | 21:38 |
| calimero_82 | higuys | 22:42 |
| calimero_82 | where's the screensaver? i've lubu 13.10 | 22:42 |
| ianorlin | there isn't one really installed by default you could install xscreensaver | 22:43 |
| calimero_82 | thanks ianorlin | 22:47 |
