[07:20] <lyh> How to set tty as default startup?
[07:27] <Unit193> Add 'text' to /etc/default/grub's CMDLINE option after 'quiet splash' and then update-grub
[07:28] <lyh> thank you.i am try
[13:36] <marc__> hey there, i have a little problem... i accidentally clicked on "never show again" when the wifi-notifaction popped up (sucky trackpad)... how do i get it back? anyone here who knows how to do the trick?
[13:37] <marc__> uncle google doesn't seem to provide lxde answers
[21:37] <Gulibuf> hi, can I have a question here about my diffulty with update manager?
[21:38] <holstein> sure
[21:38] <holstein> i suggest, in a terminal "sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade"
[21:40] <Gulibuf> ok, is it better than "sudo apt-get clean" and retry?
[21:41] <holstein> Gulibuf: the above is what i use
[21:45] <Gulibuf> ok i see its downloading well... Another question. I get problems using my lexmark printer. Ubuntu doesnt work with Lexmark printers well?
[21:47] <holstein> well, its likey the other way around
[21:48] <holstein> lexmark is or course welcome, encouraged and able to provide support for linux.. but they may not.. though, linux and ubuntu are quite capable of printing documents
[21:48] <holstein> Gulibuf: you can share your specific model and i can search a bit.. or another volunteer might know or have first hand experience
[21:50] <Gulibuf> OK I have a X5075 Lexmark all in one printer and fax scanner
[21:50] <Autoclesis> lubuntu worked fine with my airprint system set up with macs and HP printers
[21:50] <Autoclesis> in fact this Ubuntu stopped working for that
[21:50] <Autoclesis> [dual booted win and ubuntu]
[22:03] <Autoclesis> oh wait no
[22:03] <Autoclesis> Lubuntu stretched and deformed the printing
[22:03] <Autoclesis> or squished it, rather
[22:03] <holstein> i have seen that as well.. i always just try other drivers, or force them, til something works
[22:04] <holstein> *if* it doenst work right out of the box
[22:05] <Gulibuf> can u install windows drivers with wine app or something like that?
[22:06] <holstein> nothing about ubuntu is preventing drivers from working with it
[22:06] <holstein> its just not the right place to put the burden.. its not indtended, or guaranteed to work with linux. so, how can linux bridge the gap?
[22:07] <holstein> it does a great job of providing suppor through generic kernel drivers.. i typically, literally try about 20 drivers or so til i give up, on problematic printers
[22:07] <holstein> if you have literally pluggged it in, and went with the defaults, consider trying a few other drivers.. close in model #..
[22:11] <Autoclesis> thanks holstein
[22:11] <Autoclesis> I like how fast lubuntu is
[22:11] <Autoclesis> I put it on an old Sony Vaio
[22:12] <Autoclesis> and it's ready within one minute of turning it on
[22:26] <phillw> Autoclesis: is for this reason that bugs for 'hibernate' are no longer high priority.
[22:26] <Autoclesis> okay!
