[03:24] hi lubu techs [12:59] Greetings lxdians [13:00] how do i zoom the desktop like windows 8 "winkey" and + combo [13:04] or is there an app to provide desktop zoom effects to enlarge the view ? [13:07] hi all [13:12] Hi, who can help me? I have a problem with USB scancode reader, and I'm new in linux. [13:15] usb scancode...mmm sounds like trouble.... [13:16] Yes, it scans not full bar code, everytime one number is missing. [13:17] sorry for my poor english :) [13:18] In windows everythink is OK, but in different ubuntu versions same problem. [13:19] For example: I get 5449172 instead of 54491472 [13:20] or I get 885697000016 instead of 8856976000016 [13:26] best to google the brand/model + ubuntu (or check the ID using lsub in terminal and searching that. Must be some know-how on the forums...sorry my browser went kaput [13:27] hi folks. lxappearance-obconf stopped working. Its tab even even aren't shown in lxappearance. Any ideas? [13:28] Thanks for advice, but that didn't help [13:30] Atiest...random stab: could be a driver bug or a driver option that needs setting, or sometimes a udev rule that isn't set right... [13:30] use lsmod and modinfo to figure out what driver it uses [13:31] Ok, 1 min [13:31] then maybe trouble shoot it. ?? [13:34] Ateist: maybe this: dmesg | grep usb [13:35] 1 min, I'll try [13:38] dmesg gave my Idvendor:0745, but Idvendor:0000 [13:39] Sorry id product:0000 [13:43] Ateist: you may try question about this hardware in normal ubuntu-channels like: #ubuntu or for your language [13:44] I there also :) [14:23] Anybody here? [14:25] no, everyone bombed [14:25] :p [14:28] Ateist: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BarcodeReaders [14:30] Wonder if minicom or any serial terminal would test/read from it. [14:35] Hi, I'm trying to recover file and hopefully fix a Lubuntu system. I try to boot Knoppix off a flash key and it fails saying: "/init: line 975: mount: not found" twice, then "/init: exec: line 1033: /sbin/init: Input/output error". What chan should I go to? [14:35] Normally booting my Lubuntu system says something about I/O errors, falls into fsck, which raises a bunch more errors that I do not understand "failed command: READ DMA.... error: { UNC }", ending with "fsck / [275] terminated with status 4" [14:47] Glycan: why Knoppix? Does the Ubuntu-Live-System (from Installation) not work? [15:02] in uxterm or xterm i can't paste the clipboard. how can i enable it? (what's the diff between the two xterms) [15:32] testdr: mearly because I prefer knoppix in general [15:43] Hi! When would lxqt be default on Lubuntu? [17:21] phillw: i don't know why my mobile quoted the message at the end when i replied inline. or maybe i forgot to delete it all. no worries. [17:23] I left it in hold, owing to the earlier email about etiquette :) [17:26] phillw: i killed it [17:27] I left it for you.. I think the other one is of similar ilk. [17:27] i think you'll find it's not there [17:27] also i love how after noticing the email you top post on a 2nd level quote :) [17:28] I quote via gmail... so go complain to them [17:28] so do i [17:28] pebkac [17:29] reply to... [17:29] i do too [17:29] so, that is what it gets [17:29] pebkac [17:29] :) [17:33] pray tell where :) [17:33] click the ellipsis, edit to your liking, reply where you want [17:34] kk, I'll do some editing in future :) [17:35] I read that Julien has been back in touch about the bug on reporting bugs you flagged up. [17:35] yep [17:36] known bug that i couldnt' find [17:36] the sourceforge bug has had some interesting discussions [17:36] i'm convinced that lxsession handles logging poorly [17:37] well, the boss is aware... nothing more that we mere mortals can do :) [17:37] well perhaps not [17:37] i just don't have time to dig deep into it :( [17:37] is there a qtsession suite out yet? [17:37] not a working one that i'm aware of [17:38] ARGH [17:38] do you have a link to the bug where we couldn't get to the gui? [17:38] he'll have to allocate some time if it is lxsession as lubuntu needs to roll back fixes [17:39] what, on update? [17:39] in 14.10? [17:39] well it was a problem with beta2 too [17:40] wxl: this one? https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nvidia-graphics-drivers/+bug/1363919 [17:40] Launchpad bug 1363919 in nvidia-graphics-drivers (Ubuntu) "no GUI with nvdia-304.123 on Lubuntu 14.10 beta1" [Undecided,New] [17:40] i don't think so [17:40] * wxl cries [17:40] it affected all flavors [17:40] i used the wrong link on the release notes [17:44] sheesh https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/lightdm/+bug/1371651 [17:44] Launchpad bug 1371651 in plymouth (Ubuntu) "Daily does not boot into graphical interface after installation" [Critical,Fix released] [17:49] wxl: an email that should link to the archives has been forwarded to you. [17:49] phillw: that was the one i was looking for above [17:50] wxl: I've not any complaints... [17:52] in uxterm or xterm i can't paste the clipboard. how can i enable it? (what's the diff between the two xterms) [17:53] Boscop: use Accessories --> LXTerminal [17:54] Boscop: those two are from core install. They are on the list to be removed at install, but low priority [17:54] Boscop: you might try shift-insert or middle click, as those are the standard x way of doing things [17:55] phillw: i just installed the minimal version. so just apt-get install lxterminal? [18:05] Boscop: if you want to go that route, yes [18:06] wxl: what's the diff between uxterm and xterm? [18:07] Boscop: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Lubuntu/Documentation/MinimalInstall#Full_install.2C_minimal_install_or_core_install [18:09] !info uxterm [18:09] Package uxterm does not exist in trusty [18:09] :/ [18:10] Boscop: uxterm supports unicode. [18:11] one some of my VM's with KVM it still has issues with standard lxterminal, so I use UXTerm to get a good stable terminal session within the GUI [18:12] ah thx [18:23] wxl, phillw: but xterm seems to use a different clipboard than firefox? [18:23] Boscop: have you used linux before? [18:23] yes [18:23] ok then hopefully you know there are three clipboards, right? [18:23] but i can't paste in firefox what i copied in xterm [18:23] no [18:24] well there ya go :) [18:24] what is the third? [18:24] well the third rarely gets used so we can kind of ignore that [18:24] but there ARE three [18:24] try going to firefox and using shift-insert [18:26] also shift+insert is the same clipboard as the middle mouse button right? [18:26] yes [18:26] i tried that [18:26] neither worked? [18:27] hm, it doesn't even seem to copy stuff [18:27] if it didn't work, you probably didn't copy right from uxterm [18:27] before, it auto copied stuff that i selected [18:27] but not anymore [18:27] how to copy? [18:27] hm that is quite strange [18:27] it should [18:27] (btw all of these problems are SO MUCH EASIER with lxterminal) [18:28] you could try ^c or shift^c [18:28] but select should done it [18:28] s/ne// [18:29] yeah, i installed it now [21:15] what command is it to check my video for the right driver. i know its ati. just not sure which chip. [21:16] hey i know, ask google. duh. [21:16] hi [21:18] ol_dude67: check the output of lspci or use the tool hardinfo [21:22] got it.now should i have a specific driver for a hd 4200? [21:26] ol_dude67: intel hd4200 [21:26] the intel open source one is used by default and is used by that [21:28] better question, sorry been awhile since last using lubuntu. [21:29] docs on getting vga and hdmi to play together better? [21:29] with that driver on fresh install. === Guest13699 is now known as RedDeath === Elive_user_en_43 is now known as jackbnimble [23:26] Hi! I installed Lubuntu for a family member before he went back home. Now he calls me and tells me that his computer shuts down every 90 minute (or so) with a loud "beeping sound" right before it happens. What could/would cause this? [23:33] ck power settings [23:33] BuntuTech: What? [23:34] hi julie [23:34] BuntuTech: Hi. [23:34] What do you mean? [23:35] nvm i dont think there is a power setting in any OS that would do that [23:35] BuntuTech: :( [23:35] my 1st thought is hardware problem [23:36] BuntuTech: Oh, no. [23:38] for example-heat could cause that [23:40] computers will shut down if they get too hot [23:40] is it a laptop or desktop? [23:45] my gaming laptop started doing that too me a couple years ago when i was playing a particular game that used to work the livin heck out of my graphics card-i installed freee temerature monitor and sure enough my laptop was going over 180 degrees F...graphics card was even hotter-so i took off the back covers and blew t our with air-a srprising plume of dust came out. next-i bought a laptop cooler and placed it under my laptop-especially when [23:45] i played that game. luckily all my fans were till working and to this day that laptop is fine. i literally vaccuum it regularly and occasionaly take of the back covers and blow it out again. temps are normal now. [23:46] but honeslty it could be other issues too...im no expert [23:46] might ask in the hardware channel too
