[13:01] <lucas21> Buenas Tardes
[13:01] <lucas21> #lubuntu es
[14:13] <onla> is there an app like xosd in ubuntu repositories? "xosd displays text on your screen, sounds simple right ? The difference is it is unmanaged and shaped, so it appears transparent. It's excellent for notifications."
[14:14] <onla> I want to see a popup window or something like this appear on my screen when I execute a certain command
[14:17] <onla> or linux terminal command on xs creen
[14:20] <onla> oh there is.. lets see if it can do
[17:24] <ianorlin> onla there is lxsession-message-gtk to make a popup message
[18:35] <econdudeawesome> howdy all. Trying to get a Belkin AC Dual-Band WiFi USB adapter to work with Lubuntu. Not sure how to go about this, even to see if it is being recognized by the system
[18:36] <ianorlin> not sure how to get a popup notification can you open lxterminal and run lsusb so I can have some informatoin about the kind of usb adaptor
[18:36] <econdudeawesome> ianorlin: sure. Should I post to pastebin?
[18:37] <ianorlin> yes
[18:37] <econdudeawesome> looks like it's showing up as device 7: http://pastebin.com/ecUUnFPe
[18:39] <econdudeawesome> how can I then configure the wifi? I've been using GNOME or XMONAD too long :/
[18:39] <ianorlin> econdudeawesome: can you run it agian as lsusb -v
[18:40] <ianorlin> have you tried hitting alt-f2 and running nm-applet?
[18:40] <ianorlin> that is a known bug and in the release notes
[18:42] <econdudeawesome> certainly: http://pastebin.com/ErKZZ7rw
[18:42] <econdudeawesome> no new icon appeared when I ran nm-applet
[18:47] <ianorlin> which version of lubuntu are you on?
[18:50] <econdudeawesome> hmm
[18:50] <econdudeawesome> should be 14.04, let me check
[18:51] <econdudeawesome> 14.04
[19:10] <meek_geek> I own a 1ghz dual core netbook
[19:10] <meek_geek> i use xubuntu it runs fine
[19:10] <meek_geek> Would lubuntu make it any better or faster ?
[19:11] <meek_geek> ?
[19:12] <wxl> meek_geek: likely
[19:12] <econdudeawesome> I found Lubuntu has a lot less overhead on my netbook. I dont use the standard GUI any more though; I run XMONAD. LXDE however runs well, even with 1Ghz dual core
[19:12] <meek_geek> oh
[19:13] <meek_geek> I would try it
[19:14] <wxl> openbox is pretty fast
[19:14] <meek_geek> can you share a screenshot of the file manager ?
[19:14] <econdudeawesome> ianorlin: Found a ping: https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-nettool/+question/240676
[19:14] <wxl> admittedly i use awesome
[19:14] <meek_geek> wxl, do you know xubuntu + openbox distro ?
[19:14] <econdudeawesome> Most overhead is simply in the gui, right? Openbox is going to be fast regardless of underlying architecture? (I'm not 100% confident on this assertion)
[19:15] <meek_geek> econdudeawesome, I used Openbox + Debian it was snappy
[19:15] <wxl> meek_geek: you can set up xubuntu with openbox
[19:15] <meek_geek> But the only issues was Debian's old kernel
[19:15] <econdudeawesome> meek_geek: indeed, it would be
[19:15] <meek_geek> I used from Debian to Xubuntu
[19:15] <econdudeawesome> lubuntu can be nice. If you're needing real speed, trying building up from ubuntu minimal and only putting on the gui components you really want
[19:16] <econdudeawesome> save hard drive space + build up for nice speed
[19:16] <meek_geek> but people say anything ubuntu based is spying on you and bad for security
[19:16] <econdudeawesome> who says that?
[19:16] <ianorlin> that was in unity really and has an off button
[19:16] <meek_geek> prism-break.org <-- this site and many other people
[19:16] <econdudeawesome> If you do a full Ubuntu install you have the Amazon spyglass that was a big fracas, but it's quick to unintall
[19:17] <meek_geek> Ok
[19:17] <meek_geek> lubuntu seems fast
[19:17] <meek_geek> I would download and try it
[19:24] <econdudeawesome> test
[19:24] <econdudeawesome> weird
[19:24] <econdudeawesome> irssi going buggy on me
[19:36] <meek_geek> econdudeawesome, dya use prop. softwares?
[19:36] <econdudeawesome> what?
[19:36] <econdudeawesome> also, ianorlin, I seem to hit a snag in installing the driver. I'm not familiar with make install--how to debug?
[19:36] <meek_geek> non-free do u use it?
[19:36] <econdudeawesome> on occasion. I really like sublime-text, for example.
[19:45] <meek_geek> econdudeawesome, its prop right ?
[20:40] <andgastaldo> h
[21:20] <onla> ianorlin: thanks! though I found what I wanted and what I wanted was to translate with google translate a text that I have selected to clipboard on key press, and using google translate cli, xclip and aosd_cat with autokey I am getting a nice fade in - fade out of the translation with the following system.exec_command('trs "$(xclip -o)" |aosd_cat -n "Arial Black 80" -u 2000 -o 1000 -R red -S none -f 0 -y -10')
[21:21] <ianorlin> that is long enough you probably want a script for it
[21:21] <onla> yeh, well that command is added to the autokey to execute it on keypress :)
[21:21] <onla> autokeys gui
[21:21] <ianorlin> or that works as well
[21:48] <onla> not sure if it was here or #linux where my 68xsomething terminal resolution was a topic. they said that 80xsomething is the standard minimum, but I can't have it, since I am using a large enough font on my terminal, so that I can see the irssi text from 3m distance
[21:49] <onla> they said that I should change my irssi font size, but on #irssi they say that you can't change irssis font size, that it's the terminal font size
