zerothishow would one install android x86 using chroot under lubuntu?03:18
holsteinzerothis: i would do it carefully according to their documentation03:19
zerothisgoogle has documentation for that? cool. where?03:19
holsteini personally suggest looking at androidx86 before you bother..03:20
holsteinzerothis: id just ask them where the documenation is03:20
holsteindocumentation03:20
holsteini say, try http://www.genymotion.com/ and see if that meets your need03:21
holsteinif you think you are going to install android x86 in chroot and run a bunch of native android applications on ubuntu, i would experiment with a live CD or something first.. thats not the case..03:21
holsteinhttp://www.reddit.com/r/linux/comments/29gb9x/possible_to_run_native_linux_apps_on_androidx86/ seems much more constructive...03:23
zerothiswell, I did plan to do it then undo it in virtualbox first, just to note feasibility03:23
zerothisI've done Linux apps on android, android emulation, android visualization. I'm thinking I want to try out android chroot on ubuntu now03:26
holsteingo for it.. nothing about lubuntu is preventing it03:26
holsteini would check with #ubuntu and see if you find someone doing that.. its not an lxde or lubuntu specific thing03:27

onlatryiing to get my usb wlan dontle to get to work on lubuntu but when i stick it on the iwconfig dont show wlan0 or such but the lsuab shows ralink technologies10:51
onlado i need t modprobe or something10:52
onlaor install some drivers10:52
onladmest not says that new hisped usb dev|ce found using ehci-pci and gives idvendor idproduct10:59
onladmesg only says*10:59
talsamonphillw, good morning ... was a new install yesterday... :-((11:01
testdronla: check the product-name of your wlan-usb-dongle - and dmesg long after boot might not show any hints, you should check /var/log/kern.log too11:15

onlait's this one11:19
onlaI have 2 diff usb wlan dongles and I plug and unplugged both and the other one works (they are different brand) so not sure which one refers to which one in kern.log11:22
onlabut I guess the one that doesn't work, it doesn't show the product name in kern.log, just same info as in dmesg, those idproduct and idvendor11:23
onlaAug 31 13:58:00 v-MS-7599 kernel: [ 1544.870770] usb 1-1.1.4: New USB devi11:23
onlace found, idVendor=148f, idProduct=760111:23
onlai find some tutor from 201211:24
onlaial11:25
testdronla: there seems problems with this wlan-stick (a ralink one?) - first found was this: http://askubuntu.com/questions/422647/how-to-decide-which-drivers-for-ralink-148f760111:27
testdronla: what ubuntu-Version you are using? Kernel-Version?11:29
onlayea this is 0x148f ralink tech corp 0x760111:30
testdronla: cause for newer kernel, there seems better support - maybe check here for your wlan-usb: https://wiki.debian.org/rt2800usb11:30
onlauname -r says 3.13.0-24-generic and I'm on lubuntu 14.0411:31
testdronla: from short reading thru the last debian-wiki-link, it looks like you need the firmware for this usb-dongle11:32
onlaok11:32
onlaapt-get update && apt-get install firmware-ralink with this one? do I need to add some repositories. that link has debian repos11:33
onlahmm I gotta go, thanks for the help11:34
onlaI will continue from here11:34
onlawhen I get back11:34
testdronla: sorry, but i dont have this hardware - i only know, there are different firmware packages available (for different hardware) and those are not installed as default and automatically. That could be the reason why your usb-stick is not activated.11:35

HiDeHo-NZHi all i am looking for extra panel aplets. specificklly one to display the cpu info.13:37
rafaellagunathe only way to do that is using indicators13:38
HiDeHo-NZok rafaellaguna where do i find the indicators13:39
HiDeHo-NZin other desktops the panel has an applet that shows the load cpu has. for quick viewing.13:39
rafaellagunayou can add indicator applet to the panel, and then use Lubunu Software Center and look for them13:39
rafaellagunaif you just want to show the cpu activity there's an applet for that, already included with Lubuntu13:40
rafaellagunajust right-click, add applet and you'll see it13:40
HiDeHo-NZrafaellaguna, i knwo it sa default on the panel in lubuntu13:41
HiDeHo-NZi want to knwo how to install the cpu aplet13:41
rafaellagunasudo apt-get install indicator-multiload13:42
rafaellagunathen, once added indicator-applets, you'd be able to see it in the next login13:42
HiDeHo-NZwhat are you omn abotu13:43
rafaellagunasorry?13:43
rafaellagunahere's a page with indicators: http://www.howtogeek.com/118908/10-awesome-indicator-applets-for-ubuntus-unity-desktop/13:44
HiDeHo-NZthe indicator aplet is a gnome aplet. i am using lubuntu it has indicator-applications installed.13:45
HiDeHo-NZwill the indicator-applet work in lubuntu.13:45
HiDeHo-NZi am no tusing ubunjtu with unigy i am on lubuntu13:45
rafaellagunaall the indicators should work in gnome and unity. to watch them in Lubuntu you need the indicator-applet.13:45
HiDeHo-NZok thanks so they will work13:46
rafaellagunayes. all indicators are visible through the indicator-applet. you can install as many as you want13:46
rafaellagunaexcept app-menu, that will not work13:46
testdrHiDeHo-NZ: for more monitoring you should lookup "conky"13:50
HiDeHo-NZyes i know about the conky i prefer gkrellm it has same info as conky bvut better look and feel.13:53
HiDeHo-NZhttp://gkrellm.srcbox.net/   take a look at that one13:54
HiDeHo-NZtestdr, ^ ^^13:54
HiDeHo-NZtestdr, also gkrellm is smaller13:56
testdrif i would go for size and performance, id use xosview13:58
HiDeHo-NZwhat si that14:04
Basketballis anyone here good with rtcwake and crontab14:22
onlahow do I try the "native one" suggested on this post? When I plug in my wlan adapter rt5370, I won't get any wlan0 or such as it doesn't load any driver for this dongle or so http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2218445&p=13004660#post1300466014:24
onlatried to compile the driver and got same errors so same problem with the driver as explained on #414:26
switchtehbeathi there, I want to dual boot windows 7 & lubuntu 14.04.01, I just done a fresh install of windows 7. just made an install of Lubuntu 14.04.01 to my USB stick, can I boot from USB AND then install along side windows 7? I do I need to make a new partition?14:32
Basketballis anyone here good with rtcwake and crontab14:38
onlaso I load this driver for my wlan dongle with sudo modprobe rt2800usb and I can see 4 entries with rt on lsmod after this. However still there is no interface wlan0 in the iwconfig14:47
testdronla: you did check the log-file-entries for the correct identification from the loading (new) drivers?14:49
testdronla: and last, did you do the driver load after a reboot or after a unload of any old drivers?14:50
onlaI checked but I don't know what I should learn from there14:50
onlait didn't load any drivers when I stick the dongle in. I have to manually do modprobe14:51
onlaor so I think, but my knowledge is limited14:51
onlaand I tried both. Just tried to reboot, nothing starting with rt loaded when checked with lsmod, so I do sudo modprobe rt2800usb  after this 4 rt entries in lsmod and dmesg has some more messages but no errors or such, yet doesn't put new interface like wlan014:52
onlaand after this I put my other wlan dongle in, so that I can connect to the internet, and now I have both wlan dongles in, so that I can use internet14:53
onlawaat.. I don'αΊ— have a /var/log/kern.log file anymore o.O14:55
onlaI didn't delete it14:55
testdronla: then you have no choice, you can only look for an update with automatical instlall - but from what i did read for this wlan-usb, the firmware is not free and therefore is not automatical in a new kernel version. For a not identified hardware, you have to enable the vendor/product-key to let the system load the correct driver and for this usb-stick, you have to provide the firmware.14:55
onlaah, forgot / from before var14:55
testdronla: there were entries in the ubuntu-forum about this wlan-usb-stick. Maybe you do check again, because i did only a quick search about it14:57
onlaI tried searching there too, but I couldn't find either :/ Maybe I should post there myself14:58
onlagenerally when people do modprobe rtsomething for rt wlan cards, should after this the interface wlan0 or such appear to iwconfig automatically?14:59
onlaI mean should that wlan0 appear to me after I do modprobe15:00
onlaDo you have an clues about this:15:02
onlahttp://superuser.com/questions/692229/install-driver-for-rt5370-on-ubuntu  when I do that modinfo rt2800usb | grep 5370 <- I get 2 alias lines, the other one being the one listed there, but also alias:          usb:vF201p5370d*dc*dsc*dp*ic*isc*ip*in*15:02
onlaso I tried to perform those 3 steps there, but the rmmod rt5572sta says that the module is not currently loaded15:04
switchtehbeatLubuntu 14.04.01 will not reconize my windows install, it doesn't allow me to install along side windows 7. I even created a new parition just for Lubuntu 14.04.01 but it doesn't see it?15:09
switchtehbeatis that because it's my USB?15:09
switchtehbeatsurely someone know's :/15:11

switchtehbeati can choose uefi or legacy boot16:49
switchtehbeati chose legacy/uefi16:49
switchtehbeatno16:49
switchtehbeatnow...16:49
switchtehbeatmy windows install is okay just lubuntu won't detect it :(16:50
switchtehbeatthis has happened before but can't remember how I fixed it :(16:50
IAmNotThatGuyHope you have to re-install grub and that will solve the problem16:51
IAmNotThatGuyDo you have a live CD/USB ?16:51
switchtehbeatI have lubuntu 14.04.01 on my usb stick16:51
switchtehbeathow do I install grub? lubuntu won't even install/detect my windows16:52
switchtehbeatwindows 7 IS installed though16:52
switchtehbeatim on it right now16:52
switchtehbeat:( i hate windows ugh :(16:52
IAmNotThatGuyOkay. I will tell you two things. 1. Restart your machine and press the button that takes you to the boot options16:53
switchtehbeatyes16:53
switchtehbeat?16:53
IAmNotThatGuysee whether you have an Entry for Ubuntu16:53
switchtehbeatnope there isn't16:53
switchtehbeati only have windows installed16:53
IAmNotThatGuyswitchtehbeat, You installed Lubuntu and that is not getting detected right?16:54
switchtehbeatnope16:54
switchtehbeatI done a fresh install of windows 7 and want to dual boot with lubutnu but lubuntu install won't detect windows..16:54
switchtehbeati did say16:54
IAmNotThatGuyYou mean your Live USB is not detected?16:55
switchtehbeatno16:55
switchtehbeati try to install from my usb stick but it's not detecting my partitions or windows 7 hence why i cannot install along side windows 716:55
switchtehbeatsee what i mean?16:55
switchtehbeatsomeone said update grub?16:56
IAmNotThatGuyswitchtehbeat, is it possible for you to use the Live USB and come online here? I'd like to check some details about your partitions16:56
switchtehbeatokay brb16:57
IAmNotThatGuyThat was me. I thought that Lubuntu was installed. My bad. Sorry16:57
IAmNotThatGuyAnybody around?17:08
IAmNotThatGuyI gtg now. If switchehbeat comes back, please check 1. his current partitioning by doing sudo fdisk -l 2. If this has only one partition, better ask him to shrink the partition in Windows to make sure that he is not deleting the partition. 3. Ask him to come back to Live UST and check whether he can install. 4. Also make sure that he is doing in a legacy mode as boot mode. UEFI sometimes blocks the partitions17:12

switchtehbeat?19:23
rafaellagunaswitchtehbeat, all looks fine19:23
switchtehbeatsigh19:23
rafaellagunaI'm looking and looking for something wrong, but nope19:23
rafaellagunahave you tried removing (when installing) everything? I mean, using that "new partition table" button on the installer19:24
switchtehbeatI don't get what you mean...19:24

switchtehbeatyeah but I want my windows install kept..19:26
testdrswitchtehbeat: you already tried a complete new install? First windows and now linux?19:27
switchtehbeatyes testdr19:27
switchtehbeatthis is my 2nd fresh install of windows19:28
switchtehbeatstill the same19:28
switchtehbeat:/19:28
testdrswitchtehbeat: sorry, but you have to do it again. But in a different way.19:28
rafaellagunahis partitions are fine, with normal disks, this is weird. we are missing something19:28
switchtehbeatdifferent way? i dont' care aslong asit works19:28
testdrswitchtehbeat: you first boot the ubuntu -live-usb, but you dont install linux. You only partition the harddisk. you create a medium sized partition for windows an another one for linux - maybe the rest as an extenden partion for special later use19:29
switchtehbeatwhat?>19:30
testdrswitchtehbeat: for windows system partition you need a size of about 50 GB and for the linux system partition choose something like the same19:30
switchtehbeatso I boot lubuntu from my usb stick, create 2 partitions? then install windows then lubuntu@?19:30
testdrafter the partitioning - you start windows and install windows to the first partition and check it can boot19:30
switchtehbeatso I boot lubuntu from my usb stick, create 2 partitions? then install windows then lubuntu@?19:31
switchtehbeatthat correct?19:31
testdrthen you boot ubuntu-live-version and install it to the second partition and let it create the boot-grub-manager on your harddisk.19:31
switchtehbeatplease see above19:31
switchtehbeatso I boot lubuntu from my usb stick, create 2 partitions? then install windows then lubuntu@?19:32
testdrswitchtehbeat: yes - the trick is to do the partitioning so windows wont use the whole disk19:32
switchtehbeatyou're confusing19:32
absk007how to remove sublime text completely such that when i reinstall it, it doesn't tell my copy is Expired?19:32
