[04:19] <rawfodog> how do I turn off the screensaver/lockscreen ?
[16:36] <zerothis> I recomiled my kernel, then swtch back (I think). how can I confirm which kernel I'm using?
[16:47] <wxl> zerothis: uname -a
[16:49] <zerothis> wxl: thanks. that confirms I'm still on my custom kernel. How do I switch back?
[16:50] <wxl> zerothis: grub
[16:50] <JohnnyComeL8ly> At boot you hold Shift... that will get you the GRUB menu from which you can choose your old kernel.
[16:54] <zerothis> yup. the old kernel works. Now how do I make that permanent or otherwise prevent my custom kernel from being used?
[16:55] <wxl> zerothis: with grub :)
[16:55] <zerothis> so what I just did as permanent?
[16:55] <zerothis> was permanent
[16:55] <JohnnyComeL8ly> Use boot-repair.
[16:56] <krytarik> !grub | zerothis
[17:00] <JohnnyComeL8ly> Disregard the boot-repair "fix."  I checked the options and it didn't have that.
[17:01] <zerothis> i think I just had a duh, how about booting with the old kernel then uninstalling my customer kernel
[17:11] <JohnnyComeL8ly> I had that thought too, but I thought you wanted to keep the custom kernel... I guess not.
[17:19] <JohnnyComeL8ly> zerothis: If you want to keep the custom kernel but have the Lubuntu kernel be the default, then look at this solution: http://askubuntu.com/questions/216398/set-older-kernel-as-default-grub-entry
[17:56] <zerothis> JohnnyComeL8ly: thanks, but my custom kernel was compiled without support for my wireless card (doh!). It must go. I have gone back to the supplied generic kernel. Later I will try again.
[17:57] <zerothis> thank you all for the help.
[18:28] <jakew> I am trying to install ndiswrapper on a machine that I cannot connect to the Internet via Ethernet and I'm pretty sure it's the only way the wireless card is supported. There is a bug so that just installing ndiswrapper and its dependencies does not work. I want to try to compile it, but I've been tracking down lots of packages to get gcc up and going and moving them with a thumbdrive. Is there an easier way?
[20:40] <Australopithecus> I have a macbook that is frozen it has lubuntu 14.04 what key combination do I input to shut it down?
[20:40] <Australopithecus> or press rather
[20:44] <krytarik> !reisub | Australopithecus
[20:45] <ianorlin> also trying control alt f1 may get you to command line if just GUI froze
[20:58] <Australo_> I dont have a print screen button @ubottu
[20:59] <ianorlin> I am not sure how to do it now Australo_ but there was a way to configure it
[20:59] <Australo_> there was a way but I forgot
[20:59] <Australo_> it was some combination of alt shift fn and f1
[20:59] <Australo_> or f2
[21:00] <Australo_> cant remember its was my so's responsibility to remember it -_-
[21:01] <Australo_> its where you exit the gui
[21:03] <Australo_> think i figured it out thanks for the help
[21:05] <Australo_> stuck with a hard frozen computer :\
