[00:13] I am running 14.04 and i can´t execute lxsession-default-apps, because it hangs at "The database is updating, please wait" I have waited over 10 minutes! [00:16] anyone? [00:17] not sure why that is happening does running it in a terminal print an error message? [00:20] ianorlin, are you talking to me? [00:21] yes acpiorwhat [00:24] i clicked on Preferences > Default applications for LXSession and then a pop up window appeared saying : "The database is updating, please wait" I have waited over 15 minutes! [00:36] how can i enable acpi while the system is up and running? [00:36] i do not want to enable acpi at boot [00:37] Hello, I have an AMD athlon pc with 1545MB Ram, and Lubuntu 14.04 in it, and it's laggy, it's slow... [00:37] Is there something i can do to make it faster? [00:46] that should be enough ram do you have lots of tihngs open like how many tabs in webbrowser or running at 100% cpu the whole time [00:46] dont have lots of things open [00:47] it's slow even for typing [00:47] it has a delay [00:47] and scrolling too... [00:47] what kind of graphics? [00:47] card? [00:47] yes graphics card? [00:47] It's a geforce... [00:48] geforce mx440 [00:50] ianorlin? [00:51] I thinks it's a 32mb card. [00:59] I am running 14.04 and i can´t execute lxsession-default-apps, because it hangs at "The database is updating, please wait" I have waited over 20 minutes! [01:00] i clicked on Preferences > Default applications for LXSession and then a pop up window appeared saying : "The database is updating, please wait" I have waited over 20minutes! [01:07] any devs here who can help me out? [01:07] any devs here who can help me out too? [01:20] vga compatible controller : nvidia corporation nv18 (geforce 4 mx 4000) problem video the floder in browser hide and appear [01:32] Fakeboost I don't personally have one of those cards but I read this http://askubuntu.com/questions/375696/nvidia-geforce4-mx-420-13-10/395431#395431 [01:58] Checked that, but it is a ubuntu thread... [01:58] Not lubuntu, the supposed lightweight one... [01:58] ianorlin [02:00] yes but it is still shared driver [02:01] ok... [02:01] what i see in that thread is that there is no solution. [02:04] no the grub noveau.noaccel=1 in teh command would turn off a problem with accelratoin on video card [02:05] " [02:05] [02:05] I had trouble with the same type of system. What finally got me working was to disable the acceleration support in the nouveau driver. Via sudo, I edited /etc/defaults/grub so that: [02:05] GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash" [02:05] Became: [02:05] GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash nouveau.noaccel=1" [02:05] And then: [02:05] sudo update-grub [02:05] I restarted the machine, and the graphics issues were resolved. Admittedly, I'm disabling the acceleration support - but I'd rather have slow correct graphics than fast incorrect ones." [02:05] What does that mean? [02:06] it means that it won't be superfast but that it could be better if it is using all of your cpu which would make it slow [02:07] ok, so i just go for it... [02:07] I will try it now. [02:22] ianorlin, i modified the line, but when i try to save the file, it says permission denied (via notepad) and the same goes with the command cat > grub... [02:23] And I ran it with sudo... [02:24] Fakeboost why not sudo nano [02:24] sorry [02:24] just did it, i ran sudo and leafpad and got it... [02:25] rebooting now... [02:32] Well, it seems the slow thing in this machine is the internet browsing... [02:34] I can't really make your network faster [02:35] haha [02:35] maybe you know something about this: [02:35] you know when you iwconfig... [02:35] you get signal strength in dbm... [02:36] Well in this machine i get it in n/100 [02:36] It is awckward. [07:43] hello [07:44] is it possible to have clamav working with sylpheed to prevent viruses? [08:19] ? [10:07] hello [10:08] lubuntu 14.04: the lock screen button on the close session dialog screen does nothing. why, and how to fix? [13:33] ah crap now I cannot login to lxqt in either 13.10 or 14.04 [13:34] before only 14.04 kicked me right back to lightdm [13:40] bollo_: i make certain my password and account is working in TTY, then, i try other accounts, such as guest, to make sure the user account is not breaking the config for something [13:40] holstein: login i fine [13:41] bollo_: you have a PPA added? [13:41] holstein: I can login to openbox and start lxqt from there [13:41] holstein: yeah lubuntu-dev/lubuntu-daily [13:41] bollo_: ok.. that sounds like an acceptable work-around for development releases [13:41] holstein: yep :) [13:42] just curious if anyone had an idea about the issue [13:42] bollo_: maybe the maintainer of the packages you are using [13:49] I'll just have to wait I guess [13:49] I've seen other people in here with the same issue [13:50] I'll play around with siduction lxqt for now :) [13:51] bollo_: you see other people with the same unsupported packages added? having issues? [13:51] bollo_: there should be a way to report those bugs and issues to the developers [13:51] holstein: Yeah maybe a week ago someone brought it up in here [21:35] Hi, can I replace Tools>Open Folder As root with similar ? Ty [21:36] i mean can I simulate the old command that was in 13.10 [21:40] am running 14.04 on flashstik, so permission issues come up a lot when copying and deleting from local hard drives and other flashdrives [21:41] open folder as root was handy for that [21:58] randi: See here: http://lubuntublog.blogspot.com/p/actions_24.html
