| Aucdrone | so im trying to install lubuntu 13.10, the installer just freezes as soon asi pick english then click continue | 03:44 |
|---|---|---|
| ianorlin | you know that is only supported until July while 14.04 is supported for 3 years | 03:45 |
| Aucdrone | 14.04 has stuff wrong with it though :p | 03:45 |
| Aucdrone | uses twice as much ram, wifi isnt automatic | 03:46 |
| Aucdrone | i can fix the wifi thing takes 2 seconds but idk about the ram has that been solved yet? | 03:48 |
| Aucdrone | idk why 13.10 freezes when i try to install... | 03:48 |
| Aucdrone | made it up to the '4.4gb space free and internet connected' screen of the 14.04 installer | 04:27 |
| Aucdrone | seems to be doing nothing | 04:27 |
| Aucdrone | the cursor thing is spinning | 04:27 |
| Aucdrone | is there some kind of verbose mode for this | 04:28 |
| Aucdrone | cause i have no idea why its stopped on the GUI | 04:29 |
| holstein | Aucdrone: i suggest addressing your issues with 14.04 | 04:29 |
| holstein | !nomodeset | 04:29 |
| ubottu | A common kernel (boot)parameter is nomodeset, which is needed for some graphic cards that otherwise boot into a black screen or show corrupted splash screen. See http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1613132 on how to use this parameter | 04:29 |
| Aucdrone | wow 10 minutes later it tells me some disk has mounted partitions would i like to unmount, wonder why that took so long | 04:32 |
| Aucdrone | im irc'ing from 14.04 while i try to install it. | 04:33 |
| holstein | Aucdrone: i would be testing my hard drive | 04:34 |
| Aucdrone | im installing from a usb flash drive to another flash drive | 04:34 |
| Aucdrone | theyre fast name brand ones though | 04:34 |
| holstein | they all break | 04:34 |
| Aucdrone | break? | 04:34 |
| Aucdrone | why? | 04:35 |
| holstein | Aucdrone: ? | 04:35 |
| holstein | Aucdrone: *all* drives fail | 04:35 |
| Aucdrone | i just bought these today :p | 04:36 |
| holstein | sure.. you can google search, and see that that is one time when drives are factually most likely to fail | 04:37 |
| holstein | Aucdrone: i dont have that issue.. and havent seen any complaints about that issue.. im not saying you have a bad drive, im just saying, if i saw that message, thats what i would be testing | 04:38 |
| Aucdrone | i dont think thats it i think its because lubuntu auto mounts flash drives | 04:38 |
| holstein | Aucdrone: i have gotten more then one USB stick out of the package that was bad.. and "fast name brand ones" as well | 04:38 |
| Aucdrone | i got a bad flash drive last week so yeah i know that can happen | 04:39 |
| holstein | Aucdrone: sure. but thats the issue i suggest you address. you dont "think".. otherwise, you can disable whatever you like from any operating system about volume management | 04:39 |
| Aucdrone | whats more likely, failed hardware or bugs in new software? I'm learning toward the latter | 04:41 |
| holstein | !bug | 04:41 |
| 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. | 04:41 |
| holstein | Aucdrone: test for both, and address which ever it is | 04:41 |
| wllrt | Is there a way to lock a window, basically what I'm trying to do is type what is on leafpad to another window, but when I click on this other window, leafpad dissapears. | 06:04 |
| wllrt | I would like to lock a particular window, leafpad program in this case, so that when I click out of it, it does not dissapear. Any way of doing this. Using Lubuntu 14.04. | 06:21 |
| wllrt | ianorlin: How do I google what you suggested? Windows key plus left or right. | 06:26 |
| comics_idees | hi I have a problem with google chrome in lubuntu. Google maps load very slow, and youtube videos are very corrupted | 08:48 |
| comics_idees | also when I click chrome in docky it takes too much time to open it | 08:49 |
| hateball | Do you know if Chromium behaves the same way? | 08:52 |
| cristian_c | Hi | 09:24 |
| cristian_c | I've purchased a Rii mini i8 bluetooth keyboard | 09:24 |
| cristian_c | How can i enable the keyboard in lubuntu? | 09:25 |
| cristian_c | Any ideas? | 09:25 |
| cristian_c | I've paired it | 09:25 |
| gfredericks | anybody know what packages I need to get ubuntu's ssh-agent behavior? | 10:49 |
| siawacsh | I am confusing about the way the ISO are named. I am using an Intel 64 bit architecture quad core i7. But all i see is AMD64. which ISO Is best for me? | 11:21 |
| JohnDoe_71Rus | amd64 is the same | 11:22 |
| siawacsh | OK thannks. | 11:23 |
| siawacsh | Another question. Up till Ubuntu 10.04 I had no problems installing. But since 13.10 not so. I read somewhere I have disable my nVidia driver before I can have access to my mouse and keyboard | 11:25 |
| JohnDoe_71Rus | just AMD was the first x86-64 == AMD64 | 11:25 |
| siawacsh | II have not seen that ISO. can you kindly provide a link | 11:26 |
| JohnDoe_71Rus | get *_amd64.iso and don't worry | 11:26 |
| siawacsh | OK | 11:27 |
| siawacsh | Do you know about the installation problem I mentioned? | 11:27 |
| JohnDoe_71Rus | Try live CD. This will show that your equipment works. | 11:29 |
| siawacsh | Live CD is the same. if I let it load as normal. I end up with a desktop but no mouse or keyboard access. I have reboot then press F4 as soon as I see the icon. I then select compatibility mode. It give me a desktop with generic drivers. But this is not a permenant solution. | 11:31 |
| gfredericks | okay so I've re-learned that ssh-add can get me into the state I want, where the agent knows my key; what I don't know is if there's a way to get the ubuntu behavior of having ssh-add run whenever I try to use a key that it doesn't have yet | 12:19 |
| gfredericks | not the worst thing in the world; I don't logout/restart too often | 12:38 |
| gfredericks | next challenge: xmonad | 12:44 |
| comics_idees | anyone has any idea why google chrome is slow in lubuntu? | 16:25 |
| lubuntu-livecd | chromium came on previous live cd and seemed fast enough but current live cd has ff so haven't tried it | 16:37 |
| koell | comics_idees: i thought FF is slow :) | 17:01 |
| comics_idees | well google chrome cannot play google maps and cannot play videos in my pc | 17:02 |
| gfredericks | I'm trying raw xmonad, and one thing I don't know how to do from the terminal is logout | 19:14 |
| gfredericks | any guesses? | 19:14 |
| gfredericks | I just tried installing the xfce4-session package, but calling `xfce4-session-logout` shows the error message "Could not get owner of name 'org.xfce.SessionManager': no such name" | 19:21 |
| gfredericks | come to think of it I don't know why I would need to logout without restarting, so this might not be too important | 19:22 |

| Reptilia | Is Lubuntu well supported? I used to be ignored often when i used it 2 years ago :D | 23:36 |
| Reptilia | I've installed it now, 14.04, hoping that it will run well on my old laptop, and it does :) | 23:37 |
| gsilva | I'm sure you'll find plenty of help in this channel if you need any Reptilia | 23:37 |
| lubuntu-livecd | I believe so but only used live cd | 23:37 |
| Reptilia | gsilva:Thanks | 23:37 |
| lubuntu-livecd | uses many of ubuntu repositories | 23:37 |
| Reptilia | How can i change the number of desktops? Can't find that option. | 23:38 |
| Reptilia | If there's any GUI method, i am wondering. | 23:38 |
| gsilva | http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2033467 | 23:39 |
| Reptilia | I think i'll learn a lot, while using Lubuntu. It's not that GUI based, as other distros :))) | 23:40 |
| Reptilia | gsilva, thanks | 23:41 |
| ianorlin | middle click on desktop add desktop or remove last also works | 23:42 |
| Reptilia | ianorlin:That comes in handy :D Thanks! | 23:44 |
| Reptilia | Damn, this thing is fast. | 23:47 |
| Reptilia | Am i allowed to add "spaces" between apps in the "Application launch bar"? | 23:50 |
| Reptilia | Add "Spacer"* | 23:50 |
| Reptilia | Or it comes as an entity? | 23:50 |
| ianorlin | the only real way I can think to do that is with two application launch bars | 23:50 |
| Reptilia | And can't be internally re-organized? | 23:50 |
| ianorlin | with a spacer between them but redoering would be ahrd | 23:51 |
| ianorlin | *hard | 23:51 |
| Reptilia | Mhm, clear | 23:51 |
| Reptilia | thanks | 23:51 |
| Reptilia | ianorlin:It kind of concatenates them, so i will go with a single App launcher | 23:54 |
| Reptilia | Also, when i alt + tab between opened apps, there is a visual effect, how do i turn that off? | 23:59 |
| ianorlin | the little popup that shows you which window it is? | 23:59 |
