[04:52] <mikubuntu> help! trying to get this box ready for a flight in the morning, and after installing lub 13.10 386 i cant get it to detect wireless signal .. any idea what might be wrong
[04:53] <Unit193> What chipset?  (Also, 14.04 is current.)
[04:54] <Unit193> `lspci` should say.  Also, if you have an ethernet cord, you should be able to use Additional Drivers to pull in the driver.
[04:54] <ianorlin> is this the nm-applet not being in panel?
[04:58] <mikubuntu> Unit193: thx lemme try additional drivers
[05:07] <mikubuntu> upgrading to 14.04 and broadcom card now working ... its possible this could fly

[11:38] <melodie> does someone know about a program (light) to count time when you work on a project?
[11:38] <melodie> under Archlinux I use sgtt, but in Ubuntu I don't know what is available

[16:04] <ReggieMan> Software Updater tells me "Failed to download repository information" / "Check your Internet connection."
[16:18] <holstein> ReggieMan: did you?
[16:18] <ReggieMan> Yes.
[16:19] <holstein> ReggieMan: i would close *everything*.. any package management applications.. open a terminal and run "sudo apt-get update" and report errors..
[16:19] <holstein> !paste
[16:22] <ReggieMan> http://paste.ubuntu.com/7510886/
[16:23] <ReggieMan> holstein: &
[16:24] <holstein> ReggieMan: so, no errors, then..
[16:24] <ReggieMan> Mhm.
[16:24] <holstein> ReggieMan: i would run "sudo apt-get dist-upgrade"
[16:41] <ReggieMan> holstein: I didn't see any errors http://paste.ubuntu.com/7510971/
[16:41] <ReggieMan> Software Updater still gives me the same message. Should I restart now that I've done that upgrade?
[16:41] <holstein> !raring
[16:41] <holstein> ReggieMan: raring is EOL
[16:41] <holstein> ReggieMan: you'll want to upgrade to 14.04, trusty
[16:42] <ReggieMan> Hmm. Yeah, this hasn't been upgraded properly in a while. How do I go about getting the current version?
[16:42] <holstein> !install
[16:43] <holstein> !eolupgrade
[16:43] <holstein> i prefer backing up data and fresh install
[16:59] <ReggieMan> Looking at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EOLUpgrades is the sources.list step required? I can't seem to find a Lubunu equivalent of old-releases.ubuntu.com/ubuntu
[17:00] <ReggieMan> holstein: ^
[17:06] <ReggieMan> Shut off on trying to install clementine via apt-get. Did you say anything holstein?

[18:18] <js_doode> Hello I am looking to install Firefox 29.0.1 on Lubuntu 14.04 without uninstalling Firefox 28, but I would like to create a start menu shortcut, rather than always starting it from terminal. What are some good sources to learn this? Thanks.

[19:22] <comics_idees> anyone faces problem with google chrome ?

[20:00] <rk[1]> i am in a pickle...
[20:00] <rk[1]> i am using the default x login manager, wtf it is.
[20:00] <rk[1]> i typed the wrong username and it keeps prompting me for a password and stating it is in correct
[20:00] <rk[1]> is there a way to go back to choosing a user?
[20:01] <rk[1]> or any idea what the name of the process is, so i can kill it and re-execute it?
[20:03] <holstein> rk[1]: i would go to tty, and make certain i can login, and i know what my username is.. then, i would just reboot and try again.. not sure what you are looking at, or why you cant just type in a username.. could be you are just frustrated and pressing enter too quickly
[20:04] <rk[1]> holstein: i _really_ don't want to reboot
[20:04] <rk[1]> i am on a live image...
[20:05] <rk[1]> else i would have already done that 15 minutes ago :P
[20:05] <rk[1]> it is a default install so username should be lunbuntu and password empty characters
[20:05] <rk[1]> i am on a tty now, hence how i am able to be on irc
[20:05] <holstein> rk[1]: you'll have a challenging time with that in a live ennvironment
[20:05] <rk[1]> holstein: i am frustrated, but doesn't seem to be the issue.
[20:06] <holstein> not sure what you are trying to accomplish.. you should probably just take a bigger picture with the entire issue
[20:06] <rk[1]> holstein: yeah. i made a mistake picking lunbuntu as a live image, but heh it is what i am stuck with
[20:06] <holstein> rk[1]: i dont know *any* live image that is expecting you to logout like that
[20:06] <rk[1]> so lunbuntu uses some default x login manager.
[20:06] <holstein> rk[1]: you *can* login, and i have many times.. but, its just not intended to be used like that.. hence the frustration
[20:06] <rk[1]> the default window manager is something lame, so i installed i3
[20:06] <holstein> rk[1]: yes.. lubuntu uses a login manager..
[20:07] <rk[1]> i logged out and it brought me to login manager screen
[20:07] <holstein> rk[1]: you wont be able to do that with the live ennvironment like that
[20:07] <rk[1]> i typed something by accident in the username and pressed enter
[20:07] <holstein> rk[1]: i would just install, and do what you like.. customize all you please
[20:07] <rk[1]> and now it just keeps prompting me for password :/
[20:07] <rk[1]> there is no, cancel go back to username selection :/
[20:07] <holstein> rk[1]: so, kill the login manager you are using,a nd use the one the entire live environment is expecting..
[20:08] <rk[1]> holstein: i was thinking that, but i have no idea what the name of the process is for the login manager
[20:08] <rk[1]> sorry i am not used to a login manager, i usually just edit my .xinitrc and startx
[20:08] <holstein> kill them all, and just login and do what you like
[20:09] <rk[1]> also, i would be on my default image of gentoo, but i recently moved and am forced to be using wireless =[ and i didn't set wireless up yet with the drivers and kernel stuffs before i moved :/
[20:09] <holstein> rk[1]: you dont have an installation to do that with.. you should just install, and not be expecting customization like that from a live environment
[20:09] <rk[1]> holstein: i concur. i have been going about this wrong, but it is what i am dealing with
[20:09] <rk[1]> i boot and spend 30-40 minutes setting up my environement
[20:10] <holstein> lightdm is the login manager
[20:10] <rk[1]> so i end up leaving my live image running for weeks at a time.
[20:10] <rk[1]> i really need to fix my wireless issue
[20:10] <holstein> rk[1]: right.. *dont* do that.. just install
[20:10] <holstein> or, just use it "as-is"
[20:11] <holstein> not sure why you are logging out at all, and seeing or caring about a login manager with a live environment...
[20:14] <mikubuntu> took forever doing an upgrade to 14.04, and then when it was finishd my keystrokes wouldn't render any type on chrome , but seem to be working on firefox -- is this a known bug?
[20:14] <rk[1]> holstein: i have been living // booting off a live environment for 6 months :/
[20:14] <rk[1]> also thank you very much
[20:14] <rk[1]> lightdm was the process. i killed and restarted it and it at least brought me to the meh wm
[20:14] <rk[1]> i tried logging out and logging back in and for some reason it won't accept my password. i even changed it but oh well
[20:15] <rk[1]> at least i can run a web browser
[20:15] <rk[1]> also, i'd rather not install. i really don't care much for *buntu
[20:15] <rk[1]> anyhow, thanks for helping!
[20:29] <mikubuntu> took forever doing an upgrade to 14.04, and then when it was finishd my keystrokes wouldn't render any type on chrome , but seem to be working on firefox -- is this a known bug?
[20:43] <holstein> rk[1]: what are you booting from? USB stick?
[20:44] <holstein> rk[1]: im not asking that you do, or if you do "care" for *buntu, but, using the liven environments incorrectly, and not as intended like you are can be a source of frustration that i am attempting to address
[20:54] <mikubuntu> took forever doing an upgrade to 14.04, and then when it was finishd my keystrokes wouldn't render any type on chrome , but seem to be working on firefox -- is this a known bug?
[20:54] <holstein> mikubuntu: ask them
[20:55] <holstein> mikubuntu: first thing i would do is test without my user config for chrome..
[20:55] <mikubuntu> so you don't think its an os problem
[20:55] <holstein> mikubuntu: its not part of the OS, so, no
[20:55] <holstein> mikubuntu: i use chrome in 14.04 without fail
[20:56] <holstein> mikubuntu: the chrome ppa was likely disabled to facilitate your upgrade.. if you havent, purge, and reinstall chrome, and that will likely address any issues
[20:56] <mikubuntu> k, i'll try that
[21:01] <mikubuntu> holstein, bummer, still not working ... was actually chromium i wonder if chrome would have the same issue, i'll try it an see
[21:17] <gomaaz> hi there
[21:34] <wllrt> How do I add an icon to my shortcut on lxde panel?
[22:13] <SaXx> Hey
[22:20] <wllrt> SaXx: Hey
[22:21] <wllrt> Not a whole lot activity on this channel it seems.
[22:22] <SaXx> Yes I agree, first time on this channel and it seems dead
[22:24] <wllrt> clear
[22:25] <wllrt> ^woops
[22:25] <SaXx> Haha
[22:25] <wllrt> SaXx: I'm on tmux and I was clearing the terminal. :)
[22:25] <SaXx> I thought so haha! :)
[22:26] <wllrt> SaXx: Earlier I was having an issue with adding an icon to a shortcut I created in the lxde panel, but it seems resolved, although it is not squared like most lubuntu icons.
[22:28] <SaXx> Ahh I see, i'm doing all my customisation's now, I just switched over to Lubuntu full time after trying all other distros, are you a full time user too?
[22:28] <SaXx> customizations*
[22:28] <wllrt> Technically yes. I've been doing some distro hopping. This is an old machine Thinkpad A30.
[22:29] <wllrt> Prior, I was running Precise Puppy Linux. Wanted to try Slitaz and that seemed like a monumental thing to configure which I wasn't up for. So I resorted to what I know best.
[22:30] <wllrt> SaXx: I'll be right back. I'm going to have dinner.
[22:30] <SaXx> Okay no problem, I'll be here :)
[22:45] <wllrt> SaXx: I'm back.
[22:46] <wllrt> SaXx: What other distros did you try and what hardware?
[22:52] <SaXx> Hey, I've got a stack of distros on disc, I've tried them all, the reason I didn't switch before is because I'm a front end web dev and need tools like photoshop and such and Gimp wasn't enough, I've managed to get photoshop running smooth now though
[22:53] <wllrt> SaXx: Cool. So, wait where are you running Photoshop?
[22:53] <SaXx> I had it running on Xubuntu so I imagine I can get it running on Lubuntu, we'll find out shortly though lol
[22:54] <wllrt> SaXx: With wine?
[22:55] <SaXx> Yeah with Wine and it ran fine for me
[22:55] <Unit193> If you could, please try to keep the chatting in #lubuntu-offtopic and the support questions in here.  This makes it easier for people willing to help filter out questions from normal chatting.
[22:55] <SaXx> Oh sorry!
[22:55] <Unit193> No problem.
[22:56] <wllrt> Unit193: My apologies. Will do.
