[00:05] when I startup Lubuntu 14.04 the "splash screen" looks really 8bit'y. it used to startup and have a nice looking loading screen. any ideas as to why it changed? [01:22] hi, i wonder if some1 can help me, i had wlan0(internet) and eth0 (lan) i want to keep wlan0 for internet and eth0 for lan, but eth0 should be able to access subnetworks. [01:22] hi, i wonder if some1 can help me, i had wlan0(internet) and eth0 (lan) i want to keep wlan0 for internet and eth0 for lan, but eth0 should be able to access subnetworks. [04:28] Hi, im having problems with network and network conections, when i try to edit any network with network conection dont ask for password and is not changing ip if i try to set it manually or automatic [05:00] Just installed the lubuntu i386 alternate, is it supposed to boot into a command line os? I thought the installation was just an alternate installer & then it boots into graphical desktop. [05:00] cyborgcygnus: lubuntu has a GUI, yes [05:00] cyborgcygnus: did you try a live CD? [05:01] do you install lubuntu-desktop at final install stage? [05:08] holstein, The alternate i386 doesn't have a try option if that's what you mean. I first installed from usb, then for some reason the ancient pc wouldn't boot back to that for a reinstall so I made an actual cd. Same results apart from the failed to install components or something, I don't remember seeing options for lubuntu-desktop JohnDoe_71Rus [05:09] JohnDoe_71Rus, ^ [05:10] in this stage http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_Rf56AL-pm3Y/TCD8zcqgQ5I/AAAAAAAAFwo/_zQJiRJj5NM/s1600/Tasksel.png [05:11] need check options [05:11] I think I'll try the desktop iso instead of the alternate. [05:11] good idea [05:12] JohnDoe_71Rus, I had no options like that come up. Maybe I should make sure I'm watching the entire time. [05:16] you can find video alternate install [05:50] JohnDoe_71Rus, Can I just install lubuntu-desktop from the command line? [05:51] yes [05:51] I shall do it, I'm guessing there's more commands I need to run to make it boot into that by default? [07:08] hello [07:09] in lubuntu 14.04, how do I make so that a certain command (namely, "setxkbmap -it") is executed at boot time? [07:09] goal: work around a problem with the american english keyboard layout always being selected (and not changeable) in the logon screen [07:14] actually I think it's "setxkbmap it" [07:14] do I just add the command to the "autostart" list? [08:00] hi. can someone tell me what version of evolution mail comes with 14.04 [08:02] !info evolution [08:02] evolution (source: evolution): groupware suite with mail client and organizer. In component main, is optional. Version 3.10.4-0ubuntu1 (trusty), package size 46 kB, installed size 405 kB [08:03] thanks [08:03] Sure, but it doesn't "come" with Lubuntu. [08:59] Got lubuntu working on a pc from 2006, it's pretty quick seeing as this pc has only 512mb of ram & a 40gb hdd [09:00] in lubuntu 14.04, how do I make so that a certain command (namely, "setxkbmap it") is executed at boot time? [09:01] I need the it keyboard layout to be selected in the logon screen [11:35] join #deluge [11:44] hi . I just upgrade from 13.10 to 14.04 ... I lost the usb modem network connection.. its the only way I connect ..tried reinstall modem manager and network manager but made no difference...is there something else I can try ? [11:45] wwwwww: would be interesting to know if there is any error message. Did just the icon dissappear or doesn't it connect anymore ? [11:47] the icon was missing after upgrade .. i put a new one in panel but it shows eth only [11:49] when i start in advanced mode and try to make a network connection I get warning 724 ttyusb port attribute not fully set [11:57] wwwwww: could you try starting nm-applet with root rights. So gksu nm-applet (first you need to kill the currently running version though) [12:00] ok will try that ...thanks leszek back in 10 minutes let you know results [12:16] hi leszek tried nm-applet ...window popped up showing network status .. offline. [12:20] but still no option to get online [12:22] wwwwww: hmm... and manually adding a connection does not work ? [12:24] i made and deleted connection several times ... but the icon does not show mobile broadband [12:25] everything else went ok with the upgrade [12:26] hmm... maybe it is missing a package. But I never used this so I can only guess [12:26] wwwwww: are those packages installed ? [12:26] network-manager-openconnect-gnome, network-manager-openvpn-gnome, network-manager-vpnc-gnome, network-manager-pptp-gnome [12:27] network manager is [12:27] i go check the others back in a bit [12:52] hi leszek if all those packages need to be installed... then i am SOL ...because i cant get online ..usb modem is the only way [12:53] then I am out of ideas [12:54] ok thanks .. for some reason it didnt install the packages [12:55] to bad everything else is working great [12:57] tomorrow i delete the partition and do i clean install of 14.04..cya [12:57] wwwwww: I am not sure if this packages are needed though [12:57] so don't reinstall yet [12:58] maybe someone else with knowledge about usb modem setup can help you [12:59] ok ..it shows to blue icons next to 2 packages ..only a few bytes needed [13:01] i could probably download and install them manually [13:01] hi [13:01] I would like to set a wallpaper in dual monitor but the monitors are different resolution [13:02] how can I do this [13:02] i use lubuntu [13:02] comics_idees: you mean a stretched wallpaper ? [13:02] yes but I dont stretch it [13:02] it is in proper witdth [13:03] width for 2 monitors [13:03] yeah I guess it does not work with different resolutions set. This needs support in pcmanfm which isn't there [13:03] or at least it wasn't there last time I checked. [13:04] so what should I do [13:04] when I open pc one screen has the wallpaper and the other screen has default lubuntu wallpaper [13:05] I wish the wallpaper cover both screens [13:07] comics_idees: that isn't supported by pcmanfm [13:07] is there any other utility [13:07] that could do the same ? [13:07] if you don't need desktop icons you could use a normal wallpaper setter [13:07] feh is one of this apps [13:07] what is a normal wallpaper setter [13:07] feh ok [13:07] I will try it [13:08] feh is a commandline app. So make sure to read its manpage (man feh in terminal) [13:08] hm this sounds difficult\ [13:08] I will try it [13:10] it isn't. You just need to fint the correct parameter [13:22] i found the 2 deb packages . will go try it . back in a bit [14:30] I tried feh [14:31] but the wallpaper is like an image in feh it is not wall paper [14:31] you click close [14:31] and it disappears [14:33] comics_idees: you did not read the manpage than. There is an option to set it as wallpaper [14:33] it was like wallpaper [14:33] it took the whole screen [14:33] but it has option close [14:35] then it wasn't running in wallpaper mode [14:35] did you execute this ? [14:35] feh --bg-scale /path/to/image.file [14:45] hm no [14:47] I replace /path/to with usr/local etc etc ? [14:49] try the --bg-* commands out these are for setting the background [14:50] these commands should be given after every reboot? [14:51] should I put feh in autostart? [14:55] you can put feh in autostart or create a config for it [14:56] this wiki is very helpful on this: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Feh [16:46] Hello ppl. Good day. [17:00] Hello Mr_Comet [17:00] Hello :) [17:01] I am a PuppyLinux user. ex user of Mint 14 XFCE [17:01] You're welcome! [17:01] i was told by a friend to try Lubuntu os. [17:01] yeah im on lubuntu too <3 [17:01] and i have successfully burned it on cd/rw [17:01] fastest lubuntu ever made :) [17:01] yeah ive heard so about the speeds and ram usage claims. [17:02] from live cd demo, i can see it uses only 202mb out of my 3GB Ram. [17:02] ultra lightweight, nothing crap :D [17:02] I have a question thou. [17:03] c:\ 30GB Fat32 [17:03] d:\ 268GB NTFS (For data only) [17:03] i dont know what lubuntu needs for a proper install on my laptop. [17:03] u need an ext4 partition for [17:03] i only use C:\ partition for os. [17:04] So Ext4 for C:\ partition? [17:04] do u have other OS installed on that c: drive? [17:04] yes [17:04] windows? [17:04] couple of flavors of Puppy Linux and Windows [17:04] Windows XP [17:04] using Grub4 as present. [17:04] *at [17:05] oh okey, so you can't format the whole disk and need to create a partition first [17:05] thats my whole setup details. [17:05] but i think lubuntu will ask you on the installation [17:07] i see [17:07] the simplest way to install lubuntu for me would be to select SDA1 aka C:\ and format it to ext4 and install on it. rite? [17:08] Mr_Comet: then you will delete the other OS. [17:08] yes. im aware of it [17:08] xD [17:08] my data is on d:\ partition [17:08] good way [17:08] yep. [17:09] lubuntu will ask you on the installation if you would like to keep the other OS or delete anything and install lubuntu alone [17:09] i see [17:10] i've not tried puppy before, is it lightweight too? [17:10] koell, is quick format ok? [17:10] quick format? do you want to delete the other os? [17:10] PuppyLinux iso are around 150-200MB [17:10] koell, yeah. [17:10] i have the iso;s of all puppy linux including windows xp. [17:10] so no problem if i want them again in future. [17:11] Mr_Comet: i dont know the difference. doesnt matter i think :D [17:11] koell, Lubuntu iso file size is almost 700MB [17:11] i would just let the lubuntu installation do anything for me :D [17:11] first time lubuntu user here to, in the process of installing [17:11] PuppyLinux iso file size is just almost 200mb. [17:11] sparrow___, cool. [17:11] Mr_Comet: oh cool so it is fast? [17:11] koell, lolz okies :D [17:11] koell, "lightening" fast. [17:11] does it really use 200bm ram idle? [17:12] mb* [17:12] :D [17:12] sparrow___, for me yes. around 200-202mb or so out of my 3GB ram during demo live cd/rw [17:12] yeah in in idle [17:12] 203 :D [17:12] thats not very lightweight :( i thought it would be around 80-100 like the xp i tried [17:13] with i3wm you only need 150 :D [17:13] lightweight enough these days [17:13] idk any lighter :) [17:14] all i want to do is have QT creator, and be able to build Blender [17:14] is there a better choise than lubuntu? [17:14] (running in a VM) [17:14] 200mb seems nice. [17:14] why dont you install blender on the machine itself? [17:15] building it [17:15] not running [17:15] oh okey [17:15] Mr_Comet: how much does puppy need in idle? [17:16] iso is just 200mb or less [17:16] i dont think it uses alot. [17:16] the new firefox is really fast as well [17:17] lubuntu and puppy can run the same software? [17:18] idk, is puppy a derivate of ubuntu? [17:18] koell, fast and some say version 29 makes computer hot. [17:18] sparrow___, it needs pet files. no apt gets. [17:21] Mr_Comet: as a windows user i have no idea what that means. but i gues its a "no" :) [17:21] Mr_Comet: Hot? it is lot faster than before :D [17:21] sparrow___, how fast is the install ? [17:23] Mr_Comet: been at it for 2h now -.- [17:24] WHAT? [17:24] how old is ur pc/laptop?!?! [17:24] not the fastest laptop and im doing alot of other stuff at the same time [17:24] VM ware? [17:24] virtualbox [17:25] okies [17:25] gonna install lununtu. [17:25] lubuntu [17:25] bye :D [17:25] bye [17:25] bye [17:25] o/ [17:25] ta ta [17:47] sparrow___, got it working? [17:48] ideasman42: still installing -.- [17:49] ? [17:49] why so long? [17:49] ??? [17:49] on my system it takes ~10min max [17:49] if you have an old system, using a VM probably isnt a great idea [17:49] its just going to run baddly [17:49] and annoy you [17:50] xp took nowhere this long time :/ [17:50] yes its "old" but im also running it in powersaving mode to its doomed to take a while :/ [17:51] sparrow___, xp if 14 years old [17:51] you could try a lightweight linux thats also 14 years old [17:51] but then you wont get a modern development environment [17:52] sparrow___, ubuntu is one of the most popular systems running in the cloud [17:52] its really quite well suited to running in VM's [17:52] if this gives trouble, I think you may have issues with your setup [17:53] Hi all. Is this an ok place to look for help with display driver issues? [17:53] the only purposse of this VM is for me to get familiar with the source code again... [17:53] i had no problems 1 year ago when installing it on my main os [17:55] ideasman42: you said QTcreator saves the different "find in files" [17:55] is there a way to keep this when restaring qt? [17:55] i download a open source software, after extract i have 2 folders and 3 or 4 files, one of those is .JAR , how to install this on my lubuntu 14.04 ? [17:56] it thats the cause i will just drop the whole VM thinge [17:56] and install qt for windows [17:56] sparrow___, nope [17:56] it saves the searh string [17:56] but not the search results [17:57] i find it weird how none of the softwares actually does that [17:58] been looking on sotwares ment purely for "find in files" not even those have tye option to keep the reslut if closing the software [17:58] its a great tool for shortcuts [17:58] sparrow___, for this stuff, I use grep a lot too [18:00] sparrow___, think picking your OS based on a find tool is a bit silly [18:00] there are loads more important things to worry about [18:00] like good compiler warnings, debugging tools available... stability [18:00] ideasman42: im picking OS depending on what will make me able to build [18:00] im all for windows [18:01] meh, well, use whatever works [18:01] but you were having a lot of trouble with windows [18:02] in the VM yes [18:02] but i "need" the snapshot function [18:08] ideasman42: meh, im gona cut the power for the lubuntu VM. if i cant get it to work with the xp VM...ile just drop the whole idea with a VM. [18:08] it hough it was about done when it was in 83% before... but then it goes back to 1%> [18:09] god knows how long this will take [18:10] its 2gb big now [18:12] had the impression ubuntu was small enough to fit on a small usb stick [18:14] one with exact packages chosen would be [18:15] but most desktop installs include things like email programes, image editor, etc === odroid is now known as Guest5387 === Guest5387 is now known as JensNDS [19:22] Looking for display driver help. Any takers? [19:37] i just installed lubuntu on an acer aspire one. the wifi see's my network but i type my encryption key in and nothing happens [19:48] Anyone know how to fix monitor frequency out of range error? [19:57] I'm looking for help with display driver issues. Anyone got the magic? [20:13] Hi all. I have problem to lock my screen, neither when I try to "lock" in the menu or waking up computer after suspend. Quickfix? Bug? [20:13] bjorn which versoin of lubuntu? [20:14] ianorlinlaptop, the last one, 14.04 [20:14] go to the menu prefrences light locker settings and make sure it says lock screen after suspend [20:15] ianorlinlaptop, great! [20:15] brb [20:22] also make sure enable light locker is on as well [20:22] ianorlinlaptop, its one step forward. It works when suspend from menu, although not from my dedicated Fn button. [20:23] can I change background in login screen of lubuntu? [20:26] comics_idees: to do that you would need to edit /etc/lightdm/light-dm-gtk-greeter.conf and change the background file to the file you want to replace the background with [20:28] ianorlinlaptop, hmm. it seems that Light locker doesn't remember my settings, even if I tick "apply" the switch is OFF next time I try. [20:30] and what about my issue about just locking the screen, seems strange to me not to be able to lock my session when off for couple of seconds [20:31] I think control alt L is the shortcut for locking in lubuntu not sure about fn key to lock would have ot do keybinding [20:33] ctrl alt L doesn't work. lock from menu works now anyway. another step forward [21:37] hey, is anyone able to help me set up raid1? ive got a computer here on the installation screen, but i cant find anything regarding raid [21:41] I'm trying to figure how to fix signal frequency out of range when I'm using the radeon driver. The fglrx driver doesn't give me that error messege. With the open source driver I have to boot with a different monitor, then switch back to the monitor I use normally.
