| InfinityDriims | bonjour, je suis nouveau sur linux, j'aimerai savoir si l'on peut personnalisé lubuntu ? | 18:07 |
| rafaellaguna | InfinityDriims, check this https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Lubuntu/Theming | 18:35 |
| JamesMc | Hello all. This is my first time and post on this channel. I currently use Ubuntu 13.10 on a HP G60-535DX 64-bit laptop. I am planning to backup all my data and do a clean install of Lubuntu. I like the thought of have more CPU and RAM resources available for programs rather than running in background. | 19:07 |
| ianorlin | yes that makes sense although one annoying bug in 14.04 http://lubuntublog.blogspot.com/ will have a way to get wifi working as the nm-applet doesn't show up by defualt | 19:12 |
| JamesMc | Bug... humm... in other words - wifi does not work until applet shows up? | 19:14 |
| rafaellaguna | w-fi works, but don't show up :) | 19:14 |
| JamesMc | Ok | 19:16 |
| JamesMc | Question about LuBuntu and VirtualBox? Has anyone had problems getting USB to work? | 19:30 |
| holstein | JamesMc: not when adding support.. | 19:32 |
| rafaellaguna | Maybe you need to install the VirtualBox AddOns, to enable USB support | 19:33 |
| JamesMc | Had a bit of trouble doing that in Ubuntu 13.10. Guess I was not doing it right. | 19:34 |
| JamesMc | Pity that one cannot just install windows printer drivers directly into Lubuntu. | 19:36 |
| holstein | JamesMc: nothing about lubuntu/ubuntu/linux is preventing that.. let the creator of the hardware and drivers know you would like that | 19:45 |
| phillw | JamesMc: you may like to consider the open source VM system and free yourself from Oracle :) KVM is what drives the cloud and it is already in your kernel. | 19:48 |
| JamesMc | <grin> I have a Lexmark x9575 multifunction printer that to date there is no support found. My attempts to install software in Ubuntu were less than effective. | 19:49 |
| phillw | JamesMc: have a read of https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/Activities/Classroom/Saucy/#Introduction_to_QA_tools and I'll have a dig for you, not heard of lexmark drivers, but will go look for you. | 19:51 |
| JamesMc | Thanks phillw. I bookmarked that to checkout more. | 19:54 |
| JamesMc | Phillw... to help in checking on Lexmark - http://support.lexmark.com/index?productCode=LEXMARK_X9575&page=product&locale=en&userlocale=EN_US#1 | 19:55 |
| phillw | JamesMc: bad news... http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=841943 | 19:56 |
| phillw | and that is about 6 years ago... | 19:56 |
| JamesMc | Yeah phillw - and no generic drivers anywhere in sight. | 19:57 |
| JamesMc | Which is why I may need Virtualbox to load XP and then the printer drivers. | 19:58 |
| phillw | JamesMc: my black belt in google-fu has found this for you... http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=49714 | 19:59 |
| JamesMc | Phillw... holy! I feel like Kung Fu Panda. | 20:04 |
| phillw | I've never had a lexmark printer, so that is as much as I can help you. The thread looks useful :) | 20:07 |
| SpComb | I'm trying to use the lubuntu-desktop session on Ubuntu 14.04 LTSP (i.e. netboot from ltsp-server), and it's not working | 20:33 |
| SpComb | only error I have is this in my ~/.xsession-errors: /etc/X11/Xsession: 6: export: -s: bad variable name | 20:33 |
| SpComb | which looks like a incarnation of https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/dash/+bug/139097 | 20:34 |
| ubottu | Ubuntu bug 139097 in dash (Ubuntu) "dash variable expansion error using local, readonly, and export" [Low,Confirmed] | 20:34 |
| SpComb | tracing it down, | 20:34 |
| SpComb | /usr/share/xsessions/Lubuntu.desktop:Exec=/usr/bin/lxsession -s Lubuntu -e LXDE | 20:34 |
| SpComb | /etc/X11/Xsession.d/40-ltsp-server: DESKTOP_SESSION=$(echo $1 | sed "s/gnome-session --session=//g") | 20:34 |
| SpComb | /etc/X11/Xsession.d/70gconfd_path-on-session: export MANDATORY_PATH=${GCONF_PREFIX}/${DESKTOP_SESSION}.mandatory.path | 20:34 |
| SpComb | /etc/X11/Xsession.d/70gconfd_path-on-session: export DEFAULTS_PATH=${GCONF_PREFIX}/${DESKTOP_SESSION}.default.path | 20:34 |
| SpComb | I think the ltsp-server script for determining DESKTOP_SESSION is particularly funny :) | 20:34 |
| SpComb | but, uh, is that enough to really break the lubuntu session? | 20:35 |
| SpComb | yeah, if I comment out that crap in the ltsp-server Xsession script then the lubuntu desktop works | 20:36 |
| phillw | SpComb: can you ensure what you have found is added to the bug. | 20:44 |
| phillw | much appreciated | 20:45 |
| SpComb | I suppose this is mainly an ltsp-server bug | 20:50 |
| rafaellaguna | sorry,, hi everyone | 20:51 |
| mkdmz | Can anyone help me with this question: http://askubuntu.com/questions/483396/how-do-i-set-up-custom-icons-for-my-pygi-app-documents | 21:00 |
| SpComb | phillw: filed https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ltsp/+bug/1330252 | 21:01 |
| ubottu | Ubuntu bug 1330252 in ltsp (Ubuntu) "ubuntu 14.04 ltsp-server /etc/X11/Xsession.d/40-ltsp-server DESKTOP_SESSION breaks lubuntu-desktop login" [Undecided,New] | 21:01 |
| SpComb | seems like the /etc/X11/Xsession.d/ files are the same in Ubuntu 12.04 vs 14.04 | 21:06 |
| SpComb | what changed was /usr/share/xsessions/Lubuntu.desktop | 21:06 |
| SpComb | it was just "/usr/bin/startlubuntu" before | 21:06 |
| Unit193 | Lubuntu went to upstart user sessions. | 21:06 |
| SpComb | but imo the bug is in both the ltsp-server braindeadish gnome-session-sed'ing, or the gconfd use of `export FOO=...` in a dash script | 21:07 |
| SpComb | let's see how the ltsp maintainers respond.. | 21:07 |
| SpComb | bets are on for them reassigning it to gconf | 21:11 |
| SpComb | https://www.mail-archive.com/ltsp-discuss@lists.sourceforge.net/msg41762.html if someone's on the ltsp-discuss list and wants to reply to that thread with that launchpad bug link.. | 21:12 |
| SpComb | oops, that should have gone to #ltsp not here :) | 21:13 |
| Unit193 | Heh. :) | 21:14 |
| Mydim3 | can anyone tell me why when i try to install comodo dragon a error uccurs | 23:07 |
| Mydim3 | occurs | 23:07 |
| gfredericks | After firefox has been running for days, all of a sudden it gets into a funk where every 3-10 keystrokes gets interpreted as backspace | 23:58 |
| gfredericks | I've never seen this on another computer | 23:58 |
| gfredericks | (and I've only used lubuntu on this one) | 23:58 |
| gfredericks | no idea what to suspect though | 23:59 |
| gfredericks | such a weird problem | 23:59 |
