=== rustyraptor is now known as rustyraptor_zz === nacho20ukpdazo is now known as nacho20u [03:18] how would one install android x86 using chroot under lubuntu? [03:19] zerothis: i would do it carefully according to their documentation [03:19] google has documentation for that? cool. where? [03:20] i personally suggest looking at androidx86 before you bother.. [03:20] zerothis: id just ask them where the documenation is [03:20] documentation [03:21] i say, try http://www.genymotion.com/ and see if that meets your need [03:21] if 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.. [03:23] http://www.reddit.com/r/linux/comments/29gb9x/possible_to_run_native_linux_apps_on_androidx86/ seems much more constructive... [03:23] well, I did plan to do it then undo it in virtualbox first, just to note feasibility [03:26] I've done Linux apps on android, android emulation, android visualization. I'm thinking I want to try out android chroot on ubuntu now [03:26] go for it.. nothing about lubuntu is preventing it [03:27] i would check with #ubuntu and see if you find someone doing that.. its not an lxde or lubuntu specific thing [06:32] is anyone here good with rtcwake and crontab [08:28] Does Lubuntu have a "LTS" ? [08:28] now that is [08:30] LTS Support (3 years). [08:30] I guess os [08:30] And so. === rustyraptor_zz is now known as rustyraptor [10:51] tryiing 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 technologies [10:52] do i need t modprobe or something [10:52] or install some drivers [10:59] dmest not says that new hisped usb dev|ce found using ehci-pci and gives idvendor idproduct [10:59] dmesg only says* [11:01] phillw, good morning ... was a new install yesterday... :-(( [11:15] onla: 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 too [11:19] http://www.dx.com/p/aya-80211n-wi-fi-ieee802-11b-g-n-150mbps-usb-wireless-n-usb-adapter-black-256902#.VAMEgXWSykA [11:19] it's this one [11:22] I 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.log [11:23] but 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 idvendor [11:23] Aug 31 13:58:00 v-MS-7599 kernel: [ 1544.870770] usb 1-1.1.4: New USB devi [11:23] ce found, idVendor=148f, idProduct=7601 [11:24] i find some tutor from 2012 [11:25] ial [11:27] onla: 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-148f7601 [11:29] onla: what ubuntu-Version you are using? Kernel-Version? [11:30] yea this is 0x148f ralink tech corp 0x7601 [11:30] onla: cause for newer kernel, there seems better support - maybe check here for your wlan-usb: https://wiki.debian.org/rt2800usb [11:31] uname -r says 3.13.0-24-generic and I'm on lubuntu 14.04 [11:32] onla: from short reading thru the last debian-wiki-link, it looks like you need the firmware for this usb-dongle [11:32] ok [11:33] apt-get update && apt-get install firmware-ralink with this one? do I need to add some repositories. that link has debian repos [11:34] hmm I gotta go, thanks for the help [11:34] I will continue from here [11:34] when I get back [11:35] onla: 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. === Drone`` is now known as Drone` === DSyndrome is now known as Death_Syn [13:37] Hi all i am looking for extra panel aplets. specificklly one to display the cpu info. [13:38] the only way to do that is using indicators [13:39] ok rafaellaguna where do i find the indicators [13:39] in other desktops the panel has an applet that shows the load cpu has. for quick viewing. [13:39] you can add indicator applet to the panel, and then use Lubunu Software Center and look for them [13:40] if you just want to show the cpu activity there's an applet for that, already included with Lubuntu [13:40] just right-click, add applet and you'll see it [13:41] rafaellaguna, i knwo it sa default on the panel in lubuntu [13:41] i want to knwo how to install the cpu aplet [13:42] sudo apt-get install indicator-multiload [13:42] then, once added indicator-applets, you'd be able to see it in the next login [13:43] what are you omn abotu [13:43] sorry? [13:44] here's a page with indicators: http://www.howtogeek.com/118908/10-awesome-indicator-applets-for-ubuntus-unity-desktop/ [13:45] the indicator aplet is a gnome aplet. i am using lubuntu it has indicator-applications installed. [13:45] will the indicator-applet work in lubuntu. [13:45] i am no tusing ubunjtu with unigy i am on lubuntu [13:45] all the indicators should work in gnome and unity. to watch them in Lubuntu you need the indicator-applet. [13:46] ok thanks so they will work [13:46] yes. all indicators are visible through the indicator-applet. you can install as many as you want [13:46] except app-menu, that will not work [13:50] HiDeHo-NZ: for more monitoring you should lookup "conky" [13:53] yes i know about the conky i prefer gkrellm it has same info as conky bvut better look and feel. [13:54] http://gkrellm.srcbox.net/ take a look at that one [13:54] testdr, ^ ^^ [13:56] testdr, also gkrellm is smaller [13:58] if i would go for size and performance, id use xosview [14:04] what si that [14:22] is anyone here good with rtcwake and crontab [14:24] how 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#post13004660 [14:26] tried to compile the driver and got same errors so same problem with the driver as explained on #4 [14:32] hi 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? [14:38] is anyone here good with rtcwake and crontab [14:47] so 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 iwconfig [14:49] onla: you did check the log-file-entries for the correct identification from the loading (new) drivers? [14:50] onla: and last, did you do the driver load after a reboot or after a unload of any old drivers? [14:50] I checked but I don't know what I should learn from there [14:51] it didn't load any drivers when I stick the dongle in. I have to manually do modprobe [14:51] or so I think, but my knowledge is limited [14:52] and 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 wlan0 [14:53] and 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 internet [14:55] waat.. I don'ẗ have a /var/log/kern.log file anymore o.O [14:55] I didn't delete it [14:55] onla: 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] ah, forgot / from before var [14:57] onla: 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 it [14:58] I tried searching there too, but I couldn't find either :/ Maybe I should post there myself [14:59] generally when people do modprobe rtsomething for rt wlan cards, should after this the interface wlan0 or such appear to iwconfig automatically? [15:00] I mean should that wlan0 appear to me after I do modprobe [15:02] Do you have an clues about this: [15:02] http://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* [15:04] so I tried to perform those 3 steps there, but the rmmod rt5572sta says that the module is not currently loaded [15:09] Lubuntu 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] is that because it's my USB? [15:11] surely someone know's :/ [15:11] I check my disk for errors and it was okay.... [15:11] how many partitions do you have? [15:12] 2 [15:12] 1 for windows 7 and 1 for lubuntu [15:12] it doesn't show up though [15:12] it just says 160gb hdd [15:12] :/ [15:12] the installer doesn't show the win7 partition? [15:12] nope [15:12] just says the hdd has 160gb free space :S [15:12] I'm on windows now.. [15:13] which version of Lubuntu are you trying to install? [15:13] the latest one [15:13] 14.04.01 [15:13] are you booting from that usb? [15:13] yeah [15:13] and you're in live mode [15:13] yep tried that and it doesn't show :( [15:14] open gparted [15:14] that doesn't do anything either, it says the same as the install [15:14] and disk utility? [15:14] didn't try that -.- [15:14] how do i open that? [15:14] it's in preferences menu, I think [15:15] also, my usb can boot from uefi (?) or just the name of it, what do i choose? [15:15] or terminal and "gnome-disks" [15:15] brb then [15:15] okay :) [16:43] no matter what I try, Lubuntu 14.04.01 won't reconize my windows install. cannot install along side windows. :( [16:44] looks like I gotta stay with shitty windows :( [16:48] switchtehbeat, are you having EFI boot? [16:48] idk [16:48] Are you using Windows 8 ? [16:48] nope [16:48] Or is it an old PC? [16:48] windows 7 [16:49] Please share the Laptop model [16:49] new pc but windows 7 [16:49] it's not a laptop [16:49] it's a desktop [16:49] Okay [16:49] i can choose uefi or legacy boot [16:49] i chose legacy/uefi [16:49] no [16:49] now... [16:50] my windows install is okay just lubuntu won't detect it :( [16:50] this has happened before but can't remember how I fixed it :( [16:51] Hope you have to re-install grub and that will solve the problem [16:51] Do you have a live CD/USB ? [16:51] I have lubuntu 14.04.01 on my usb stick [16:52] how do I install grub? lubuntu won't even install/detect my windows [16:52] windows 7 IS installed though [16:52] im on it right now [16:52] :( i hate windows ugh :( [16:53] Okay. I will tell you two things. 1. Restart your machine and press the button that takes you to the boot options [16:53] yes [16:53] ? [16:53] see whether you have an Entry for Ubuntu [16:53] nope there isn't [16:53] i only have windows installed [16:54] switchtehbeat, You installed Lubuntu and that is not getting detected right? [16:54] nope [16:54] I done a fresh install of windows 7 and want to dual boot with lubutnu but lubuntu install won't detect windows.. [16:54] i did say [16:55] You mean your Live USB is not detected? [16:55] no [16:55] i 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 7 [16:55] see what i mean? [16:56] someone said update grub? [16:56] switchtehbeat, is it possible for you to use the Live USB and come online here? I'd like to check some details about your partitions [16:57] okay brb [16:57] That was me. I thought that Lubuntu was installed. My bad. Sorry [17:08] Anybody around? [17:12] I 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 partitions === RishabhTatiraju_ is now known as RishabhTatiraju [19:07] it still isn't working :/ help??? [19:07] update grub says grub isn't installed [19:07] i install and update it but it throws errors [19:08] notthing i try is working [19:08] -.- [19:08] help? [19:08] i really wanna use lubuntu :( [19:08] hello [19:08] ? [19:09] can anyone help? i'm going insane! [19:10] don't :D [19:10] don't what? [19:11] don't go insane :) [19:11] are you running Lubuntu now? [19:11] no i can't install it because it doesn't reconize windows :( [19:11] are you able to run from usb in live mode? [19:11] yes [19:12] open the command line (msdos or whatever) [19:12] ? in windows or lubuntu? [19:12] windows, the one you are now [19:12] okay [19:13] what command should I exicute? [19:13] let me check... [19:15] ....? [19:15] http://www.dkszone.net/wp-content/uploads/2010/09/controlpaneladministrativetools.jpg [19:15] ???? [19:16] what about it? [19:16] don't you have it? [19:16] open my pc [19:17] yeah but not sure what you're on about [19:17] in admin tools there's a section called disk management [19:17] it's a disk partitioner [19:17] yes? [19:17] I think you may have a weird partition table [19:18] lubuntu did say something might be corrupt, gpt or something [19:18] no idea what that means [19:18] yes [19:18] so what should I do? [19:18] open admin tools, look for it in the menus [19:18] administrative tools [19:18] yeah in in disk management [19:19] YES! [19:19] open it and tell me what you see [19:19] system reserved and c [19:19] then my 2 memory sticks [19:20] type of partition of "system reserved" and "c" [19:20] sec uploading pic [19:20] nice [19:21] here you go [19:21] http://minus.com/i/bD7yWkKspxid [19:21] http://minus.com/i/bD7yWkKspxid [19:21] http://i.minus.com/ibD7yWkKspxid.png [19:21] there [19:21] looking... [19:23] ? [19:23] switchtehbeat, all looks fine [19:23] sigh [19:23] I'm looking and looking for something wrong, but nope [19:24] have you tried removing (when installing) everything? I mean, using that "new partition table" button on the installer [19:24] I don't get what you mean... [19:24] wait... [19:25] http://i.stack.imgur.com/H8Vwj.png see the button at your right? [19:25] it "kills" everything [19:26] yeah but I want my windows install kept.. [19:27] switchtehbeat: you already tried a complete new install? First windows and now linux? [19:27] yes testdr [19:28] this is my 2nd fresh install of windows [19:28] still the same [19:28] :/ [19:28] switchtehbeat: sorry, but you have to do it again. But in a different way. [19:28] his partitions are fine, with normal disks, this is weird. we are missing something [19:28] different way? i dont' care aslong asit works [19:29] switchtehbeat: 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 use [19:30] what?> [19:30] switchtehbeat: for windows system partition you need a size of about 50 GB and for the linux system partition choose something like the same [19:30] so I boot lubuntu from my usb stick, create 2 partitions? then install windows then lubuntu@? [19:30] after the partitioning - you start windows and install windows to the first partition and check it can boot [19:31] so I boot lubuntu from my usb stick, create 2 partitions? then install windows then lubuntu@? [19:31] that correct? [19:31] then 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] please see above [19:32] so I boot lubuntu from my usb stick, create 2 partitions? then install windows then lubuntu@? [19:32] switchtehbeat: yes - the trick is to do the partitioning so windows wont use the whole disk [19:32] you're confusing [19:32] how to remove sublime text completely such that when i reinstall it, it doesn't tell my copy is Expired? [19:32] testdr, i cba to install windows over and over again, keep configuring shit. will this defiantly work? [19:32] switchtehbeat: if you are a windows-crack (but most users are not) you really can do the same with the windows install - but its a bit hidden [19:33] testdr, i cba to install windows over and over again, keep configuring shit. will this defiantly work? [19:33] I know how to partition lol it's just lubuntu sees nothing on the hdd [19:33] switchtehbeat: meaning of "cba"? [19:33] I know how to partition lol it's just lubuntu sees nothing on the hdd [19:34] so you're way will work tyes? [19:34] gonna try [19:34] will let you know [19:35] switchtehbeat: you are using some different kind of harddisk-drivers? Check bios - there may be some hard/software-secure systems locking your hardware. [19:36] argh - always such quick dropouts - quicker than i can type .. [20:41] bonjour [21:53] I sorted it :) now dual booting windows 7 and lubuntu :) yay me!
