| greeter | umm... has anyone here been kicked from channels by unopaste? | 00:12 |
|---|---|---|
| Unit193 | Slight malfunction, fixed now. | 00:15 |
| greeter | ok cool :-) thank you kindly Unit193 | 00:15 |
| Unit193 | greeter: Sorry for the trouble. | 00:20 |
| Sk1d | sudo do-release-upgrade works now | 00:20 |
| Unit193 | Yep, sync is done, switch has been flipped. | 00:20 |
| greeter | ah no worries :-) | 00:21 |
| sakang | trying the lxde-qt on trusty. lxqt-panel requires icu-tools which is not there. is this similar to icu-devtools? | 01:23 |
| SonikkuAmerica | I dunno, file a bug perhaps? | 01:23 |
| sakang | how about menu? can't seem to see any. does it help if I install razorqt? | 01:25 |
| ianorlin | I think you could use razor panel to get a menu | 01:26 |
| ianorlin | are you sure it is not libicu-dev? | 01:26 |
| sakang | that's what comes to mind as the desktop looks very much razor | 01:26 |
| sakang | lxqt-panel Depends: icu-tools libstatgrab6 but it is not installable | 01:28 |
| sakang | I do have libicu52 installed | 01:29 |
| sakang | this is a fresh trusty install with just openbox and lxqt. fortunately I can use alt+f2 | 01:30 |
| sakang | using tint2 as panel right now | 01:31 |
| sakang | no menu so I just use alt+f2 or from terminal | 01:31 |
| SonikkuAmerica | sakang: You can also do skeleton stuff by right-clicking in Openbox | 01:32 |
| sakang | SonikkuAmerica: right click on lxqt looks like file manager menu. not the openbox menu | 01:34 |
| SonikkuAmerica | sakang: You can change that in the Properties dialog | 01:35 |
| sakang | SonikkuAmerica: I don't see that | 01:35 |
| SonikkuAmerica | sakang: Well I'm using Xubuntu, but it's the very last item in the right-click menu... | 01:36 |
| sakang | desktop preference is the last item | 01:36 |
| john_rambo | Hi I am using a new installation of 14.04. Problem is pavucontrol says "No cards available for configuration" System info : http://paste.ubuntu.com/7272122/ | 01:38 |
| zombiehoffa | yay! they turned on upgrades! | 01:42 |
| sakang | SonikkuAmerica: re-built lxqt-panel, and it looks very much the razorqt panel | 01:57 |
| sakang | looks really nice | 01:58 |
| SonikkuAmerica | I'll let you in on a little secret | 01:58 |
| SonikkuAmerica | LXDE-Qt is the merger of LXDE and Razor | 01:59 |
| sakang | huh? it's an open secret. :) | 02:00 |
| sakang | for those interested, I used this guide http://xpressubuntu.wordpress.com/2014/03/01/installing-the-lightweight-lxde-qt-desktop/ | 02:02 |
| Techman | Good work on the 14.04 update guys | 02:03 |
| Techman | Just wanted to drop in and say thanks! | 02:03 |
| Sk1d | somehow I am missing thw wlan symbol ... | 02:35 |
| Ahmuck | hi. installed 14.04 and now have no wireless. suggestions? | 03:24 |
| holstein | !wifi | 03:24 |
| ubottu | Wireless documentation, including how-to guides and troubleshooting information, can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs | 03:24 |
| holstein | Ahmuck: elaboarate, or install the proprietary blob you need, or double check that the hardware isnt broken, or disabled via switch or on the bios | 03:24 |
| Techman | Lol I just noticed we don't have a network manager icon in the taskbar | 03:33 |
| Techman | Interesting | 03:33 |
| Techman | oh wait | 03:34 |
| Techman | network-manager is installed | 03:34 |
| Techman | hmm | 03:34 |
| Techman | holstein: where's the wireless indicator at? | 03:37 |
| Techman | I am on ethernet but it's not showing up | 03:37 |
| holstein | Techman: in the menu.. nm-applet if its not running | 03:41 |
| Techman | Yeah it wasn't | 03:41 |
| Techman | I'll add a cron to make it launch on startup | 03:42 |
| Ahmuck | have no wireless after installing 14.04 | 03:44 |
| holstein | Ahmuck: ok.. let us know if you have a question | 03:45 |
| Unit193 | Techman: Why not copy the desktop file to ~/.config/autostart/ ? | 03:46 |
| Techman | Because I like cron | 03:46 |
| Unit193 | Hah. alrighty-o. | 03:46 |
| Ahmuck | there is not autodetection for the wireless | 03:49 |
| Ahmuck | whereas there was before. why? | 03:49 |
| holstein | Ahmuck: so, is wifi working? or some autodetection? what is "auto detection"? | 03:50 |
| Ahmuck | no, wifi is not showing up on the network manager but the adapter does show up in system information | 03:52 |
| Ahmuck | system profiler | 03:52 |
| Ahmuck | network connections | 03:53 |
| Ahmuck | before i had an options for network connections | 03:53 |
| Ahmuck | er, a list of wireless connections | 03:54 |
| holstein | Ahmuck: you wont see a list if the driver is not working | 03:54 |
| holstein | Ahmuck: if you required a proprietary driver, install it | 03:54 |
| holstein | Ahmuck: what chipset? | 03:54 |
| Ahmuck | ok, i'll look for the chipset. i am assuming that the driver got dropped for 14.04 as previously i did not have to do anything | 03:55 |
| holstein | Ahmuck: why? please dont assume anything | 03:55 |
| holstein | Ahmuck: please just look and report what chipset you have | 03:55 |
| Ahmuck | Qualcomm Atheros AR9287 Wireless Network Adapter (PCI Express) | 03:58 |
| Ahmuck | (rev 01) | 03:58 |
| holstein | Ahmuck: my atheros all just work | 03:58 |
| holstein | Ahmuck: please make sure you have the device plugged in, and enabled in the bios, and on with the hardware switches | 03:59 |
| Ahmuck | it is | 03:59 |
| holstein | Ahmuck: try with the 13.10 live CD to make sure | 03:59 |
| Ahmuck | i was using it in 13.10, downloaded 14.04, installed, and *poof* | 04:00 |
| Ahmuck | ok | 04:00 |
| mikeche1en | after update to 14.04 the network manager applet says "network manager is not running" | 04:05 |
| Ahmuck | point of information, after the update i lost the network manager from my panel items and had to add it myself | 04:06 |
| mikeche1en | the panel item is there but all the options are greyed out | 04:07 |
| mikeche1en | gonna reboot | 04:07 |
| Unit193 | sudo service network-manager restart | 04:08 |
| Ahmuck | rebooting to 13.10 | 04:11 |
| mikeche1en | still says network manager is not running : | 04:11 |
| mikeche1en | D: | 04:11 |
| Unit193 | mikeche1en: sudo service network-manager start | 04:11 |
| mikeche1en | start: Job is already running: network-manager | 04:12 |
| mikeche1en | Unit193: if i do restart, then the nm applet menu changes to say "no network devices available" | 04:16 |
| mikeche1en | sudo service network-manager restart | 04:16 |
| Unit193 | And of course hardware switch is on, no additional driver needed, and all that jazz? | 04:17 |
| mikeche1en | Unit193: yeah i mean the network is working fine, im using it right now :D | 04:17 |
| mikeche1en | its just the applet being funky | 04:17 |
| Unit193 | network-manager needs to go home, it's drunk. I can tell you that I've had none of these problems here at least. | 04:18 |
| mikeche1en | preferences -> network connections is also blank | 04:18 |
| Unit193 | (Been running trusty over a month now.) | 04:18 |
| Unit193 | Alright. So. | 04:18 |
| mikeche1en | yeah i unfortunately i find little stuff breaks when i do upgrades | 04:18 |
| Unit193 | Little stuff, of course. | 04:19 |
| mikeche1en | this system went 13.04 -> 13.10 -> 14.04 | 04:19 |
| mikeche1en | i mean the network connection is still working, but now i cant enable my vpn | 04:19 |
| Unit193 | One here started out at 11.04 beta. | 04:19 |
| mikeche1en | its little stuff but with strange behavior and obscure fixes | 04:20 |
| Unit193 | `nm-tool` gives you nothing I presume? | 04:20 |
| mikeche1en | error: could not connect to NetworkManager | 04:20 |
| * Unit193 restarts network-manager. | 04:21 | |
| mikeche1en | full error: http://pastebin.com/NtGQcRdX | 04:21 |
| Ahmuck | works in 13.10, not in 14.04 | 04:21 |
| holstein | Ahmuck: ok. so, you know the hardware is working | 04:21 |
| Ahmuck | yes | 04:22 |
| holstein | Ahmuck: i would just look for and apply upgrades, and look for a bug report about that particular hardware | 04:22 |
| Ahmuck | there are no upgrades | 04:22 |
| holstein | i would get in the larger ubuntu community ASAP, since its not related to lubuntu or LXDE | 04:22 |
| mikeche1en | with service restart: http://pastebin.com/CSRVVKRz | 04:22 |
| Ahmuck | i'll have to file a bug | 04:22 |
| Unit193 | mikeche1en: Can you stop the service and sudo NetworkManager --no-daemon ? | 04:23 |
| mikeche1en | Unit193: that gives a ton of console output but seems to be working fine, what next? | 04:24 |
| mikeche1en | the nm applet still shows "no network devices" | 04:24 |
| Ahmuck | the controller is a Qualcom Atheros AR9287 Wireless Network Adapter (PCI Express) (rev01) | 04:25 |
| Unit193 | mikeche1en: The idea is to see if anything happens when you try to use nm-tool. | 04:27 |
| mikeche1en | Unit193: oh, i just found that nm-tool works if run with sudo | 04:33 |
| Ahmuck | hi. there is a problem and has been for a while with duplication of icons on the panel. for example, i have two icons for the battery, two for the keyboard, etc. the icons are different and i assume that one is lubuntu and the other is ubuntu | 04:45 |
| holstein | Ahmuck: in addition to the wifi thing? | 04:47 |
| Ahmuck | yes, this has been a problem for a while. system tray | 04:47 |
| holstein | Ahmuck: maybe you are running them both at boot | 04:47 |
| Ahmuck | has duplicate icons | 04:47 |
| Ahmuck | it's a vanilla system | 04:47 |
| Ahmuck | fresh installed | 04:47 |
| Ahmuck | k, panel preferences just crashed ... a first | 04:49 |
| holstein | Ahmuck: ? | 04:50 |
| holstein | Ahmuck: so, you have no wifi? and duplicate icons? and something crashed? and you installed a few hours ago? | 04:50 |
| holstein | Ahmuck: maybe you have some hardware issue, or incompatibility with linux and your hardware | 04:50 |
| Ahmuck | the duplicate icons have been a problem for a while | 04:51 |
| Ahmuck | the panel preference crash is new | 04:51 |
| holstein | Ahmuck: i have no duplicate icons | 04:51 |
| Ahmuck | no wifi is new | 04:51 |
| jeanaustinr | I'm trying to make a LiveUSB (for 14.04) from Lubuntu using Unetbootin, however, it's not completely working. I'm guessing the current version of the program does not yet support the latest image of *Ubuntu. | 04:54 |
| jeanaustinr | Anyone else having problems similar to mine? | 04:55 |
| holstein | completely? | 04:57 |
| holstein | jeanaustinr: ive used the lubuntu 14.04 testing isos (dailies from last week) with unet | 04:57 |
| jeanaustinr | I mean, it processes but it does not make the USB bootable. | 04:57 |
| holstein | jeanaustinr: when i encouter that, i format the stick | 04:57 |
| Ahmuck | holstein: ur special | 04:58 |
| jeanaustinr | holstein, I already did that | 04:59 |
| holstein | jeanaustinr: could be a bad stick, or a mad sum | 04:59 |
| holstein | bad* | 04:59 |
| holstein | !md5 | 04:59 |
| ubottu | To verify your Ubuntu ISO image (or other files for which an MD5 checksum is provided), see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowToMD5SUM or http://www.linuxquestions.org/linux/answers/LQ_ISO/Checking_the_md5sum_in_Windows | 04:59 |
| holstein | jeanaustinr: it worked for me, though, you can dd copy the iso's now | 05:00 |
| jeanaustinr | Thanks for the link. I tried redownloading the image, I'm working on it right now. | 05:00 |
| holstein | jeanaustinr: be sure you confirm the sum, to make certain you have a problem with the image | 05:01 |
| holstein | Ahmuck: ? | 05:01 |
| jeanaustinr | holstein, yep... the sum is correct | 05:03 |
| jeanaustinr | no problem with the image I downlaoded | 05:03 |
| holstein | then, i would try dd copy | 05:03 |
| jeanaustinr | Ok holstein let me do that | 05:13 |
| Ahmuck | where do i begin filing bugs? | 05:18 |
| holstein | !bug | 05:18 |
| ubottu | If you find a bug in Ubuntu or any of its derivatives, please file a bug using the command « ubuntu-bug <package> » - See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs for other ways to report bugs. | 05:18 |
| Unit193 | mikeche1en: But it's not normal to run it with `sudo`. :/ | 05:20 |
| Ahmuck | right click icon on menu for properties, properties dialog does not open | 05:25 |
| holstein | ok.. let us know if you have a question | 05:25 |
| holstein | otherwise, Ahmuck , you have the bug link.. | 05:25 |
| holstein | !bug | 05:25 |
| Ahmuck | gnite | 05:25 |
| Ahmuck | btw, did lubuntu channel get taken by ubuntu admins? | 05:26 |
| holstein | Ahmuck: taken? | 05:26 |
| holstein | Ahmuck: lubuntu *is* ubuntu | 05:26 |
| holstein | no one has taken or changed anything | 05:27 |
| === Guest60783 is now known as hiddenbacon | ||
| Techman | Is it just me or does the lock screen option not work? | 06:43 |
| mikeche1en | Unit193: oh ok, well it was showing errors when run by user | 07:41 |
| mikeche1en | Unit193: im probably going to do a reinstall | 07:41 |
| Unit193 | Try live first. | 07:41 |
| mikeche1en | sure i can, i've never had problems on this hardware before | 07:42 |
| mikeche1en | so my guess is just that something was borked during upgrade | 07:42 |
| trijntje | how can the lubuntu LTS only have 3 years support while the normal ubuntu has 5 years? Doesn't lubuntu use the exact same repository as ubuntu? | 09:52 |
| JohnDoe_71Rus | trijntje: 5 years for server editions | 09:54 |
| Meerkat | JohnDoe_71Rus, ubuntu, kubuntu, and a few others also have 5 years of support. | 09:55 |
| micky | Hi! | 09:55 |
| JohnDoe_71Rus | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LTS | 09:56 |
| KyouReeUs4nfo | When I run sudo network-admin it only shows "General", "DNS" and "Hosts" tab, I am wondering why it wouldn't show "Connections" tab. Any pointers? I am running Lubuntu 14.04 64-bit. | 10:20 |
| sudipto | can lubuntu be run on 2.1 Ghz, 1gb ram and 250gb hd | 10:20 |
| Meerkat | sudipto, yes. | 10:21 |
| sudipto | date resets to 00:00 on every boot | 10:22 |
| sharefree | is lubuntu spying on you | 10:39 |
| micky | sharefree, I asked this before here and the answer war: no | 10:41 |
| sharefree | but ubuntu is spying on you | 10:41 |
| micky | no amazon and no unity search thing... | 10:41 |
| micky | ...in lubuntu | 10:41 |
| sharefree | but store is there and you need an account to download it | 10:42 |
| micky | if you want to be 100% sure go tu the gnu website and go to distros... | 10:42 |
| micky | what store? | 10:42 |
| sharefree | Ubuntu Software Center | 10:44 |
| micky | what about it? how should that spy on you? As far as I know it is just a GUI of all the stuff in the respositories | 10:44 |
| trijntje | yeah, all this stuf about ubuntu/lubuntu/canonical spying on users is nonsense | 10:45 |
| trijntje | how can the lubuntu LTS only have 3 years support while the normal ubuntu has 5 years? Doesn't lubuntu use the exact same repository as ubuntu? | 10:45 |
| micky | dont know | 10:46 |
| sharefree | Ubuntu - not spying | 10:50 |
| sharefree | if so why do you offer prop. softwares in ubuntu software center | 10:52 |
| trijntje | sharefree: your question makes no sense. But there is propriatary software in the repository of most linux distributions because some users want it | 10:54 |
| trijntje | thinks like skype, flash, drivers for certain hardware etc | 10:54 |
| sharefree | so true | 10:54 |
| sharefree | so Ubuntu - not spying | 10:54 |
| trijntje | if you dont trust it, don't install it | 10:54 |
| sharefree | Ya | 10:54 |
| sharefree | I did not think of it that way | 10:54 |
| trijntje | you can even install a program that checks your system for propriatary software: vrms | 10:55 |
| micky | Have there been security bugs reposted for Lubuntu 14.04? | 10:56 |
| sharefree | does lubuntu support ati drivers ? | 10:56 |
| sharefree | I want to try lubuntu some day | 10:57 |
| sharefree | micahg, trijntje my problem is i am using Amd c-60 based laptop with radeon 6290 | 10:57 |
| sharefree | it low powered | 10:57 |
| sharefree | and i tried all the distros i could | 10:58 |
| sharefree | Debian | 10:58 |
| sharefree | Debian stable based point linux crunchbang | 10:58 |
| sharefree | Fedora | 10:58 |
| sharefree | Ubuntu | 10:58 |
| sharefree | Xubuntu | 10:58 |
| sharefree | but nothing works out of the box | 10:58 |
| sharefree | in some the opensource galium driver seem to work like in ubuntu but it sucks | 10:59 |
| sharefree | also in ubuntu you have to download a lot of codecs before getting it ready for videos of all kind | 10:59 |
| === sharefree is now known as freemode | ||
| === freemode is now known as sharefree | ||
| trijntje | sharefree: it probably wont work out of the box, since there are legal restrictions on things like codecs, which means ubuntu can't install them by default | 11:06 |
| sharefree | trijntje, in that case ubuntu better than other non-free OS | 11:09 |
| sharefree | its more Free as in freedom than | 11:09 |
| sharefree | cuz trijntje when i install other non-free linux distro they have all working outta box | 11:09 |
| _joey | dist-upgrade doesn't work | 11:09 |
| _joey | i mean it's not upgrading to 14.04 | 11:09 |
| sharefree | _joey, its not out there yet | 11:10 |
| _joey | lubuntu 14.04 is out the topic says | 11:10 |
| sharefree | omg | 11:11 |
| sharefree | sorry i did not read | 11:11 |
| _joey | that's strange: software update says 14.04 is available, while dist-upgrade doesn't | 11:12 |
| _joey | do-release-upgrade | 11:18 |
| _joey | some sucker could have told me | 11:18 |
| Mikaela | _joey: Have you tried "apt-get update" and "apt-get upgrade"? If those don't fix it, try "do-release-upgrade -d" | 11:21 |
| Mikaela | Oh, your issue was that you didn't know about do-release-upgrade. | 11:21 |
| jared | _joey: sorry mate, didn't see it until now. Dist-upgrade is not what I think you're thinking it is. For more info there is a write up on Ask Ubuntu - http://askubuntu.com/questions/81585/what-is-dist-upgrade-and-why-does-it-upgrade-more-than-upgrade | 11:22 |
| _joey | upgrade is on the way | 11:25 |
| _joey | https://help.ubuntu.com/community/TrustyUpgrades | 11:25 |
| jared | Good to hear, mine were entirely painless for both Ubuntu and Lubuntu | 11:25 |
| _joey | I remember last upgrade broke so many things on my system | 11:26 |
| _joey | I keep my fingers crossed | 11:27 |
| _joey | I've got daily back-ups | 11:27 |
| _joey | I expect to have a lot things broken again | 11:31 |
| _joey | for certain commercial software that require older library versions | 11:31 |
| _joey | :( | 11:31 |
| sharefree | _joey, why do you use lubuntu ? | 11:33 |
| _joey | I am a poor bugger who can't afford a license for ms windows and better system able to run fast enough ms windows | 11:35 |
| sharefree | try alt linux | 11:38 |
| sharefree | simplylinux.ru | 11:38 |
| sharefree | _joey, ^ | 11:38 |
| _joey | what for? | 11:38 |
| sharefree | _joey, better support and easy updates | 11:44 |
| _joey | lubuntu is ubuntu based. i doubt many distrubtions are better supported | 11:48 |
| sharefree | simply linux _joey try it and you would forget other forever | 11:50 |
| sharefree | RPM-based = better | 11:50 |
| Mikaela | It doesn't sound very good idea to advertise another distribution on main channel of Lubuntu. | 11:50 |
| sharefree | I loveeeeeeeeee Lubuntu | 11:50 |
| Mikaela | I have used RPM-based distributions, but I always returned to Debian-based ones. | 11:51 |
| Gibarian | A partition question, deleting windows from your dual-boot menu | 11:53 |
| _joey | nah! lubuntu is lean ubuntu well supported | 11:54 |
| _joey | it has userbase of entire world | 11:55 |
| _joey | i had one distrubution installed once called archlinux. i needed to all myself. i am kind of lazy . i like others to configure and maintain everything for me | 11:56 |
| sydneyJDykstra | Should I help ypu guys seed a torrent? | 12:21 |
| Mikaela | People who have downloaded it are probably seeding it. I didn't even think about downloading it yet as I used do-release-upgrade. | 12:33 |
| Sk2d | Hey I need help I try to upgrade to 14.10 but there seems to be a problem It says upgrade finished but there where some errors: "sudo apt-get -f install" does not work as /var/cache/apt/archives/samba-libs_2%3a4.1.6+dfsg-1ubuntu2_i386.deb crashes what can I do? (I dont need samba and samba-lib is the only package with problems) | 12:47 |
| Sk2d | a full (german) log when I enter sudo apt-get -f install can be found here: http://pastebin.com/ULrHDHh2 | 12:50 |
| andresherr | hello. sorry for my bad english. i have install lubuntu lts on my laptop. i have two problems: I can't see nm-applet and xfce-power is not starting by default | 12:54 |
| vjacob | I keep getting a "want to send crash error" when I log-in to Lubuntu. Any ideas on how to trouble shoot further? | 12:58 |
| Sk2d | ok I removed /var/lib/samba and then it did not crash | 13:17 |
| pip__ | anybody having network problems with 14.04? | 13:28 |
| Sk1d | pip__: my wlan symbol was missing but no. | 13:51 |
| pip__ | h'mmmm, mines broken Possibly a hardware thing I guess, but it was okay running from the live beta | 13:52 |
| pip__ | it's a bit of a disaster tbh | 13:53 |
| leszek | pip__: whats the exact problem ? | 13:53 |
| pip__ | the live environment won't give me any wifi | 13:54 |
| pip__ | the symbol isnm't there & when I add the panel applet it won't connect to the network after I give it the correct password | 13:54 |
| pip__ | but I'm not at the machine now so.... | 13:54 |
| pip__ | I'll have to deal with it later | 13:55 |
| pip__ | just trying to find out if it's just me, wich it looks llike it is | 13:55 |
| leszek | pip__: there was a hickup with authentication. I know that starting the nm-applet with root rights helps. So gksu nm-applet | 13:55 |
| leszek | pip__: network manager not showing up is a general problem | 13:55 |
| pip__ | okay I'll try when I get back home | 13:55 |
| leszek | it seems to be missing from the autostart simply. As for the authentication problem I only read it somewhere few hours ago | 13:56 |
| pip__ | I installed from the beta2 release, which ran fine from usb, even network manager | 13:56 |
| pip__ | but that wont boot now | 13:56 |
| pip__ | so I tried the final release & got the network issue | 13:56 |
| pip__ | when running from usb, so I've not reinstalled yet | 13:57 |
| leszek | pip__: as I said the networkmanager not coming up on start is a known bug | 13:58 |
| leszek | the authentication problem I am not so sure. Not everyone seems to have it | 13:58 |
| pip__ | okay, it's something to work with at least | 13:59 |
| _joey | i will never ever ever again upgrade my system | 14:47 |
| _joey | as i suspected the upgrade messed up my system | 14:47 |
| _joey | the botton panel is reversed. meny is on the right, keyboard, time icons on the left | 14:47 |
| _joey | the network applet disappeared for 3G | 14:48 |
| _joey | I cannot use internet anymore | 14:48 |
| _joey | pathetic | 14:48 |
| Mikaela | Network applet is known issue and there is workaround to run nm-applet as root. | 14:51 |

| Mikaela | Others are unfamiliar to me. | 14:52 |
| jared | _joey: bearing in mind if you've heavily customised your system (as you've mentioned previously to support out of date packages) you might run in to a lot more issues than a normal installation. | 14:55 |
| jared | _joey: to try and reset the panel there are some instructions here - http://askubuntu.com/questions/64631/how-to-restore-the-default-lubuntu-panel | 14:57 |
| _joey | it wasn't heavily customised at all | 14:57 |
| _joey | what do I do with network applet? | 14:58 |
| jared | As for the network applet the fix Mikaela suggested might help with the internet issues as well | 14:58 |
| _joey | Change owner:group to the local account from root. | 14:59 |
| jared | _joey: short version, it's installed just isn't currently autostarting on boot for some reason. If you type "gksu nm-applet" into a terminal it should appear for that session | 14:59 |
| _joey | for panels | 14:59 |
| _joey | that i copied from root to ~ | 14:59 |
| _joey | so Mikaela network settings indicator cannot fixed? | 15:01 |
| Mikaela | _joey: try alt+f2 and type "nm-applet" | 15:01 |
| jared | _joey: the network settings issue is a known bug that they're working on. For now that command will get it to work until they have the bug resolved | 15:01 |
| _joey | what command will get it? | 15:02 |
| _joey | i don't you what you are saying | 15:02 |
| * _joey is frastrated | 15:02 | |
| _joey | sorry | 15:02 |
| jared | _joey: for the network manager issue type "gksu nm-applet" into a termina | 15:04 |
| jared | _joey: for your panel issue try the instructions at the link http://askubuntu.com/questions/64631/how-to-restore-the-default-lubuntu-panel | 15:05 |
| _joey | gksu nm-applet did nothing | 15:05 |
| _joey | this is unbelievable | 15:07 |
| Mikaela | "nm-applet" without quotes worked for me without gksu. | 15:08 |
| _joey | what exactly 'works' mean in the context? | 15:08 |
| jmoseman01 | hey | 15:08 |
| Mikaela | nm-applet | 15:08 |
| _joey | the command 'nm-applet' just sits in the terminal | 15:09 |
| Mikaela | I typed that to ALT+F2 and then the indicator appeared to the corner. | 15:09 |
| jmoseman01 | I'm trying to make lxde my default on my server how do I do that | 15:09 |
| jmoseman01 | it's ubuntu before | 15:09 |
| jmoseman01 | ubuntu with unity | 15:09 |
| _joey | it's not appearing for me. Ethernet and wifi appeared but the 3G hasn't | 15:09 |
| jmoseman01 | unity > lxde default? | 15:09 |
| _joey | jare and Mikaela thanks | 15:10 |
| _joey | i will be in a sec | 15:10 |
| Mikaela | _joey: Try right clicking it. | 15:10 |
| jmoseman01 | Mikaela: do you know how to set up lxde as the default desktop environment on ubuntu | 15:12 |
| jmoseman01 | ? | 15:12 |
| Mikaela | Sorry, I don't know, but someone else might. | 15:13 |
| jmoseman01 | do you know who to ask? | 15:13 |
| jmoseman01 | do you know the command to launch it? | 15:14 |
| _joey | Mikaela and jared thanks! I fixed both problems | 15:15 |
| Mikaela | You're welcome :) | 15:16 |
| _joey | I had setxkbmap -option grp:alt_shift_toggle in ~/.xsessionrc | 15:17 |
| Mikaela | jmoseman01: I'm not sure but if someone knows, they will probably tell you. startx starts x at least, but I'm not sure about specifying lxde. | 15:17 |
| _joey | it no longer works. I need to execute the command manually | 15:17 |
| jmoseman01 | mikaela: I'm on ubuntu using unity but I have lxde installed | 15:21 |
| jmoseman01 | Mikaela: I need to figure out how to set lxde to default | 15:21 |
| wxl | jmoseman01: i bet #ubuntu would be of better help there. i know how to change your window manager in lxde, but ubuntu is a different ball of wax. | 15:27 |

| zooko | Hey folks, I've installed Lubuntu 14.04 (actually a pre-release from a few days before the release), and I can't find a control to turn on wifi or select a wifi network. | 17:07 |
| nosmelc | How do I change the Digital Clock to 12-hour display format? | 17:16 |
| zooko | Oh, running nm-applet fixed my problem. | 17:16 |
| kosaid | hey | 17:23 |
| kosaid | does anyone kno how to turn off energy saving , i;ve tried many things bt still not work | 17:24 |
| UrielVigilant | command line to install xlstproc on lubuntu , i cant find it on software apps ... | 17:42 |
| nosmelc | How do I change the Digital Clock to 12-hour display format? | 18:14 |
| ianorlin | https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Lubuntu/Documentation/CustomizingTheClock | 18:16 |
| ianorlin | you can right click on the clock and hit digital clock settings | 18:17 |
| ianorlin | then in the clock settings you could make it %I:%m in the string for the clock which would be the hour followed by minutes | 18:18 |
| nosmelc | ianorlin: thanks! | 18:20 |
| zooko | Does anyone here know why nm-applet doesn't start by default in my new Lubuntu 14.04? | 19:41 |
| zooko | I have to run "nm-applet" from the terminal before I have the ability to view or change wifi networks. | 19:41 |
| wxl | zooko: known bug. it's in the release notes. | 19:41 |

| zooko | Next question: how do I tell grub to install into /dev/sda or /dev/sda1 instead of into the device that / is currently mounted on: /dev/sda5? | 19:44 |
| zooko | Or conversely, how to tell the "refind" boot manager for EFI to look in /dev/sda5 for kernels to boot. | 19:46 |
| zooko | Hm, in fact I think I really need the former, because /dev/sda5 has btrfs on it, so refind and grub aren't going to know how to boot from it. | 19:52 |
| * zooko join #ubuntu-installer | 19:52 | |
| zooko | Hm, oh yeah and Network Manager often fails for me in a mysterious way which means I just can't associate with any wifis, and the workaround is to uninstall it and use wicd instead. | 20:06 |
| zooko | I remember that now. | 20:06 |
| zooko | Now that I'm stuck, with no wifi and no copy of wicd. :-) | 20:06 |
| zooko | Hm, maybe if I reinstall lubuntu 14.04 and tell it to use /dev/sda1 mounted on "/boot" then I won't have this problem with refind not being able to boot it ... | 20:08 |
| nosmelc | Will there be any difference between upgrading to 14.04 and doing a fresh reinstall using 14.04? | 20:44 |
| ianorlinlaptop | fresh reinstall will only have options on the disk while upgrading will have other things you have installed also get upgraded but that can make it take longer | 20:44 |
| ianorlinlaptop | as you have to download new versions for trusty in upgrade | 20:45 |
| llogiq | hi folks. | 21:16 |
| Mikaela | Hi | 21:17 |
| llogiq | Hooray for 14.04. (I'm using it since beta2 arrived and I got my new notebook) | 21:17 |
| llogiq | Strange thing is that nm-applet does no longer show up since two days ago. | 21:18 |
| llogiq | When I start it manually, it works. | 21:18 |
| llogiq | Perhaps something broke my autostart settings? | 21:18 |
