| rastko | Hi! I have set up a pxe server to install Ubuntu minimal and configured a preseed file to install lubuntu-core and some other packages. Can anyone help me figure out why some packages are not installed? The most troublesome is openssh-server. This is my preseed option: d-i pkgsel/include openssh-server lubuntu-core firefox flashplugin-installer libreoffice vim evince-gtk virtualbox | 09:47 |
| rastko | Everything installs except openssh-server, any ideas why? | 09:48 |
| rastko | Never mind... missing "string" before openssh-server. Testing it now... | 10:29 |
| kristal | Will Lubuntu have an experimental LXQt spin like Kubuntu has a Plasma5 next release? | 11:25 |
| leszek | kristal: there are already experimental lxqt spins | 11:25 |
| kristal | Is it still on openbox or using kwin? | 11:26 |
| leszek | kristal: I did not test it yet. So not sure. I guess it is still using openbox though as this is the recommend window manager for lxqt | 11:27 |
| kristal | openbox's creator seems to be going insane and kwin is lightyears ahead in tech, since LXDE is goign Qt the WM with official Qt support makes sense | 11:28 |
| Garbonzo | kristal: what's the story with openbox? hadn't heard about that | 11:31 |
| kristal | Garbonzo: Jansens has drank the SJW favour aid | 11:34 |
| leszek | kristal: yeah in my opinion kwin is better and it has a future with kwin_wayland. So sooner or later a switch would be wise. However this can still take a while | 11:34 |
| kristal | leszek: A lot of KDE people have been wanting a mini Qt/Kwin desktop for years, https://www.reddit.com/r/linux/comments/2l5qwo/do_you_know_c_qt_you_can_contribute_to_lxqt/ | 11:37 |

| ath1 | where can I find instructions to configure my PC for win7 / ubuntu dual boot? | 18:31 |
| ath1 | I want to use the win7 boot loader | 18:31 |
| silverlion | ath1, that'll not going to be easy | 18:31 |
| silverlion | I have win7 with dualboot too and tried that... you may want to choose grub2 for boot loader | 18:32 |
| ath1 | I already tried to install win7 first and ubuntu second (with grub). Then I copied the MBR to the win7 partition and added it to BCD. | 18:33 |
| ath1 | Then I repaired the MBR within the win7 recovery console. | 18:34 |
| ath1 | I can boot win7 now, but when I try to boot linux, the PC just restarts. | 18:35 |
| ath1 | This always worked with grub1 but grub2 seems to handle things differently | 18:37 |
| Novice201y | Hello. I installed Lubuntu Minimal on my netbook, end during boot time I see only flashing command promnt. Full Lubuntu works OK. What can I do? | 19:02 |
| testdr | Novice201y: what do u see? You expect graphics-gui? Did you install it? | 19:04 |
| Novice201y | testdr, CLI would be enought. But I see only flashing command promnt "_", and cannot type anything. | 19:07 |
| testdr | Novice201y: try boot-option "nomodeset" - you need to edit the grub-boot-menu line - press "e" for edit, change it and then strg-x to boot the changed one. If it works, you may need to make the change fixed. And check you hardware-specs for such hints. mayby something more. | 19:09 |
| Novice201y | testdr, But this "_" appears shortly after info screen about BIOS. | 19:10 |
| Novice201y | testdr, And full version works OK. | 19:11 |
| testdr | Novice201y: you are not speaking about a booted linux-kernel? you speak about the boot-grub-menu? Maybe you have a graphic-setting for it, that wont work. Then the only way is to boot the live-cd-version and change the setting from this on the harddisk. Could be you need textmode for the grub-menu. | 19:13 |
| testdr | Novice201y: but like already said: check your hardware-specs for any hints about it. Normaly this never happened for me (with a lot different hardware) | 19:15 |
| Novice201y | testdr, I rebooted netbook with installation-USB now and Lubuntu started. | 19:15 |
| Novice201y | testdr, But without USB-pendrive system doesn't start. | 19:17 |
| testdr | Novice201y: what system? The ubuntu-live-version on the usb-stick or the installed version? | 19:17 |
| Novice201y | testdr, Lubuntu Minimal from .iso | 19:17 |
| testdr | Novice201y: then do the install again and carefully note what you are doing. maybe the installation is corrupted - no clean install to boot. And you should give any hints about the hardware you are using! | 19:19 |
| Novice201y | testdr, I copied one library from Ubuntu into pendrive, cause Unetbootin didn't do that. Maybe that the problem? | 19:21 |
| testdr | Novice201y: sorry, i dont know from what you are speaking. If you have a faulty install-version, then create a new one . The last lubuntu-mini-iso i used successful was the 14.04 iso, but the newer 14.04.1 should work the same. | 19:24 |
| Novice201y | testdr, After "burning" .iso on pendrive, I receive message about lack of /menu.c32 file. Even for 14.04 | 19:33 |
| testdr | Novice201y: i dont know anything about "burning". I "installed" the lubuntu-mini-iso direct like this - if the usb-stick is /dev/sdc, then with: dd if=lubuntu-14.04-alternate-i386.iso of=/dev/sdc | 19:36 |
| Novice201y | testdr, I'll do it! | 19:41 |
| Novice201y | testdr, I receive "isolinux.bin" missing or corrupt for that prepared pendrive. | 19:42 |
| Novice201y | testdr, I'll try this: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/mkusb | 19:47 |
| testdr | Novice201y: check your hardware! I dont wanna guess whether the hardware cannot boot from usb or the boot-method was correct choosen or the usb-stick is bootable. For some old hardware, that could not boot from usb. I used the "plop" boot-manager to let it boot from the usb-stick. | 19:47 |
| testdr | Novice201y: so you did not use the "dd"-command like i wrote done? | 19:48 |
| Novice201y | testdr, Works! Installer started after boot. | 19:51 |
| Novice201y | testdr,https://help.ubuntu.com/community/mkusb | 19:52 |
| testdr | Novice201y: fine - that should already work - but i dont know what you did to make it work now. | 19:52 |
| Novice201y | Novice201y, I used mkusb | 19:52 |
| muluntu | Can i do the same things with lubuntu as with xubuntu ? have both allmost the same fuctions ? | 21:47 |
| wxl | muluntu: well, this is a complicated question. in general yes, but the devil's in the details. give me some examples. | 21:48 |
| muluntu | sharing networks ? | 21:48 |
| wxl | muluntu: no problem | 21:48 |
| dust | how to switch off if u press some keys longer that the input hangs at keyboard... not anymore possible to use the keyboard and it acted like the up key is pressed | 21:53 |
| muluntu | is chromium included in lubuntu or was that before ? I only find firefox. | 22:11 |
| dust | is in repo | 22:11 |
| ianorlin | it is in repo but no longer default | 22:12 |
| wxl | muluntu: we went back and forth on that issue but we decided to use firefox | 22:12 |
| wxl | muluntu: biggest reason why is probably the fact that the chromium package wasn't well maintained and was always way behind the upstream source. bad idea for a browser. | 22:13 |
| dust | is orca installed? and the reason fore the pain? | 22:13 |
| wxl | muluntu: if you want a secure chrome experience, i actually recommend using google chrome. they house their own repository and installing it will add the repo to your sources | 22:13 |
| wxl | !info orca | 22:13 |
| ubottu | Package orca does not exist in utopic | 22:13 |
| * wxl shrugs | 22:13 | |
| muluntu | I like firefox. | 22:13 |
| wxl | lots of people are :) | 22:14 |
| ianorlin | !info gnom-orca | 22:14 |
| ubottu | Package gnom-orca does not exist in utopic | 22:14 |
| ianorlin | !info gnome-orca | 22:14 |

| wxl | !info gnome-orca | 22:14 |
| wxl | well there ya go | 22:14 |
| muluntu | Is chromium installed or in softwarecenter ? | 22:14 |
| wxl | muluntu: in software center | 22:14 |
| dust | gnome orca isnt installed so cant be the pain in the ass... so why can the keyboard not accept input? | 22:39 |
| ianorlin | dust in chromium? | 22:51 |
| dust | no in general... when i opened the menu the focus scrolled up and started from below again without stopping | 22:52 |
