[00:37] wxl: SOLVED! installed a bunch of games then got a missing library error. Then sudo ln -s /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libgdk_pixbuf-2.0.so.0 /usr/lib32/libgdk_pixbuf-2.0.so.0 [00:37] homegrown: sweet. ah, so it was a bad static link. you should report that to the zc folks. [00:37] mixxx (dj app) used to have that problem [01:29] How add a network manager to the taskbar? [01:29] How do i add a network manager to the taskbar? [01:29] * === jono is now known as Guest50754 [08:33] hello ineed help i started with lubuntu... [08:36] I create terminal.sc script and when i double clicked to run it ... popup window where i must click execute ... can i execute this script without this window??? [08:43] so i got lubuntu working the way i wanted (from a usb with >4gb persistent storage and fixed the wifi and lxsession bugs) [08:43] its nice once you get it working [08:50] Hello! [08:50] I'm currently planning to deploy Lubuntu onto the following setup: 2 USB drives, 8GB each, and 2 WD Green Drives, 2 TB each [08:51] I intend to install Lubuntu's base OS onto the USB drives, then have the two 2TB drives as storage for my VMs (KVM virtualized) [08:52] My question is would it be possible to set it up so that the 2 2TB drives are set up as mirrors of each other under software RAID except for a 8GB partition on each drive, both acting as swap space (essentially striped swap on each drive)? [08:52] Or once I set software RAID on the two drives it consumes the entire drive? [09:00] hi [09:00] got some pcm unerruns with alsa. ALSA lib pcm.c:7843:(snd_pcm_recover) underrun occurred [09:00] can i replace that thing? [11:42] I switch to ubuntu from windows six months ago. I find ubuntu extremely slow on my laptop [11:42] I want to switch to lubuntu after reading about it, is this a wise choice? [11:42] I'm still new in linux and have a few questions if anyone is around [12:16] vsgill: it'll always depend.. but, keep in mind, lubuntu *is* ubuntu [12:16] vsgill: you can install lxde or lubuntu-desktop into your current ubuntu, and just choose lxde at boot [12:17] holstein: Thanks I will try that [12:17] I just want the system to run faster [12:17] vsgill: nothing makes your system any faster except a faster system.. lxde can use less resources.. or, not try and use 3d, which unity does [12:18] vsgill: i use lubuntu on netbooks, and older hardware.. and newer hardware where i want to get the most out of the system resources [12:19] holstein: I will try and tweak my ubuntu and see if it's any better, also install lxde [12:19] Thanks for your help [12:22] vsgill: there is no way to prevent unity, main ubuntu, from using 3d [12:23] vsgill: that is likely the situtation.. what you can "tweak" is the graphics driver to better support the environment you are trying to run [12:23] holstein: I tried to get the nvidia drivers to work and it just wouldn't, my laptop is also 5 years old [12:24] vsgill: you can google search, and confirm these facts.. unity is trying to use 3d rendering.. if you do not have hardware that supports 3d rendering in linux, or, you have not implemented a graphics driver that can, then unity moves to trying to do the rendering in software.. this will be slow, and seem slow.. and there is not "tweak" to address that [12:24] ah okay, i will try and get the driver working again then [12:25] vsgill: nvidia is responsible, ultimately, for providing support for the products they create, and if they have stopped supporting your device, or dont support it properly or fully, then, that can cause you to not get 3d support in linux [12:26] vsgill: there may not be a driver that supports 3d for you device in general, or in the most recent kernels.. etc [12:26] I will check for some solutions for the driver online and get it working [12:26] hopefully! [12:26] Thanks [12:27] vsgill: as long as you realize, there may not be a solution.. if nvidia has not decided to support your device for linux [12:28] the "best" solution may be trying to utilize a system without or with as little 3d as possible.. [12:28] yeah, I might switch to a lightweight distro if I cant get it to work [12:29] vsgill: you dont need to "switch" to a lightweight distro, if this is the case [12:29] you need to switch to a desktop environment that doesnt require 3d [12:29] gnome3 for example, forces and expects the same level of driver support [12:30] ah yes, like lxde [12:31] lubuntu and ubuntu are the same distro.. lubuntu is a "flavor", or version, or derivitive, or however you want to look at it [13:49] Hi , I acidentally removed the "start" button , how do I add it back ? [13:51] Hello, I'm using lubuntu 14.04 x64 [13:52] I have Intel HD audio, I'm not sure how to configure when to switch from front headphone or Mic jack to rear. [13:52] Is there a management utility for this? [14:10] the xfce power manager is not working for me. Whatever I set in the "on AC" put monitor to sleep after ... it always puts them sleep after less than 10 minutes or so, whcih is the default setting :/ [17:43] hey guys, was wondering if anyone had any experience trying to install hplip [17:44] NRDisciple: yep, works [17:44] it almost finished installing and i got an error [17:44] Running 'su -c "make install"' Please wait, this may take several minutes... error: 'su -c "make install"' command failed with status code 2 [17:45] installed the official 3.14.4 from the site [17:45] and am trying to upgrade to 3.12.4 [17:45] oops [17:45] not 14 [17:45] what version of lubuntu you running? [17:45] 14.04 [17:45] nvm i'm being dumb [17:45] 14 is more current [17:46] !info hplip [17:46] hplip (source: hplip): HP Linux Printing and Imaging System (HPLIP). In component main, is optional. Version 3.14.3-0ubuntu3 (trusty), package size 62 kB, installed size 384 kB [17:46] sadly dont have the client's printer here, had to bring it home to install [17:46] why not just go with 3.14.3? [17:46] was just trying to install [17:46] either way 3.14.4 installed fine [17:46] my apologies [17:46] lol [17:47] thanks :) [17:48] hopefully the printer functions fine when i bring it back to them [17:48] do you have any suggestions for scanning software? [17:48] i haven't done a lot of scanning, sorry [17:48] but… [17:49] !info sane [17:49] sane (source: sane-frontends): scanner graphical frontends. In component universe, is optional. Version 1.0.14-9 (trusty), package size 108 kB, installed size 332 kB [17:49] thats what i use.. [17:49] so sudo apt-get install sane would work [17:49] NRDisciple: there are GUI's [17:50] NRDisciple: you'll want to just have the hardware, and see what its about.. nothing about linux/ubuntu is preventing that printer/scanner from printing or scanning.. but, sometimes, support can be challenging, when linux support is not promised [17:51] i do know that =/ [17:52] client is scared about xp vulnerabilities and wanted security [17:52] Probably want sane-utils as well so you can issue stuff like scanimage [17:52] thanks genii [17:53] says sane-utils is already the newest version [17:53] :) [17:53] sadly i'm new to linux myself, and learning as I go alone [17:53] along* [17:55] thanks guys [17:56] NRDisciple: it'll be a lot easier when you have a scanner.. [17:56] yes i know [17:56] i'll be working on that tomorrow [17:56] when i bring the unit back to the client [18:46] hol [20:48] Hi [20:48] I've purchased a Rii mini i8 bluetooth keyboard [20:48] How can i enable the keyboard in lubuntu? [20:48] Any ideas? [20:48] I've paired it [23:51] hei [23:51] hi [23:51] is ubuntu 10.11 downloadable still? [23:53] me1900: you mean lubuntu or ubuntu? and i assume you mean 10.10? or do you mean 10.04? [23:54] 10.10 [23:54] 14 is to much on this oldie [23:55] lubuntu or ubuntu? [23:55] what machine?

[23:57] seems there are a lot of people running newer versions of ubuntu [23:57] which is to say lubuntu should have no problem [23:59] Ubuntu Lucid 10.04LTS [23:59] there's people saying 12.04 worked [23:59] one with 13.10
