blurrorz | hi guys, im new to linux, i hope to get along! | 00:33 |
---|---|---|
wxl | you'll do fine blurrorz | 00:34 |
blurrorz | haha thanks... :P | 00:34 |
blurrorz | im trying to verify if my video drivers have installed with the lubuntu installation | 00:35 |
wxl | if you see stuff, they probably have :) | 00:36 |
blurrorz | haha yeah... but sometime its and old or more basic version of the driver... | 00:36 |
wxl | seriously though, if there's no reason to be concerned, you're probably good to go | 00:37 |
Nixus | same blurrorz, using lubuntu? | 00:37 |
blurrorz | yeah | 00:38 |
Nixus | cool | 00:38 |
Nixus | anyone know how | 00:38 |
Nixus | is there a way to change the direction the window minimize animation goes? whenever I minimize/maximize a window, It always goes dow | 00:38 |
Nixus | as if the panel is down, but it's on top | 00:39 |
Nixus | 00:39 | |
drkokandy | Nixus - have you logged out and logged back in since you made that change? | 00:39 |
Nixus | yes | 00:39 |
Nixus | even restarted | 00:39 |
Nixus | 3 times* | 00:39 |
=== SonikkuAmerica_ is now known as SonikkuAmerica | ||
Nixus | AH, ouchy, I can't seem to get my sound working :'-( | 00:44 |
Nixus | anyone help? | 00:45 |
ianorlin | try unmuting stuff in alsamixer is the easiest place to start but sound problems are quite annoying | 00:46 |
ianorlin | also lspci to tell what kind of sound is useful | 00:46 |
Nixus | hmm, kinda new here, can you explain in a n00b fashion? sorry | 00:48 |
ianorlin | run lspci in a terminal to show what kind of sound chip you have | 00:48 |
wxl | before you do that, though, run `alsamixer` in terminal and make sure nothing's muted | 00:48 |
Nixus | audio device: Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. | 00:49 |
Nixus | alsamixer shows: card: hd-audio generic chip: ati r6xx hdmi Item: s/pdif [off] | 00:50 |
wxl | oh no not hdmi | 00:50 |
Nixus | \o/ | 00:51 |
Nixus | so is it trying to output sound through hdmi? | 00:51 |
wxl | it *MAY* be | 00:53 |
wxl | hdmi sound can be a pain | 00:53 |
wxl | check to see if anything is muted | 00:53 |
Nixus | oh no! | 00:53 |
wxl | if you see 00 at the bottom of the channels that's NOT muted | 00:53 |
wxl | if you see MM it is muted | 00:53 |
wxl | it would be green if it's not muted | 00:54 |
ianorlin | I disabled it on my motherboard | 00:54 |
ianorlin | and just use the headphone jack | 00:54 |
Nixus | shows MM in cyan (blue) | 00:54 |
ianorlin | but that would be in bios | 00:54 |
wxl | MM is muted | 00:54 |
Nixus | ok, I'll try | 00:54 |
wxl | arrow over to the right channel and hit M | 00:55 |
wxl | hi drkokandy | 00:55 |
wxl | welcome | 00:55 |
Nixus | right channel? | 00:55 |
* wxl facepalms | 00:55 | |
wxl | you'll find i'm REALLY good at that | 00:55 |
drkokandy | lol | 00:56 |
Nixus | sorry | 00:56 |
blurrorz | hey guys what do you guys use for rdp in lubuntu? | 00:56 |
Nixus | ? | 01:00 |
Unit193 | blurrorz: Server or client? | 01:00 |
blurrorz | client... sorry | 01:01 |
Unit193 | blurrorz: freerdp, or that plus remmina (pre vivid.) | 01:01 |
blurrorz | ive tried rdesktop... but in fullscreen mode the lubuntu taskbar stays on top and hides the windows taskbar... its quite annoying lol | 01:01 |
Nixus | so should I just disable hdmi in bios? | 01:03 |
blurrorz | have you tried a search online about switching audio output in lubuntu? sometimes you can get your answer! | 01:05 |
blurrorz | REMMINA seems nice... ill give it a try later... thanks | 01:07 |
Nixus | hmmm. people are talking about being a slider in alsamixer, I don't seem to see one | 01:08 |
blurrorz | are you on a laptop ? | 01:09 |
Nixus | yes | 01:09 |
blurrorz | theres a good chance you can find the exact model number of audio device | 01:10 |
blurrorz | and then find a driver for ubuntu for your device... | 01:10 |
blurrorz | theres a good chance you can find the exact model number of audio device... if you check online with your laptop model number | 01:11 |
blurrorz | any luck ? | 01:15 |
blurrorz | okay.. lol | 01:17 |
drkokandy | aw | 01:18 |
nicholas | haha! | 01:18 |
nicholas | got it. | 01:18 |
nicholas | someone else had the same thing on the lubuntu forum the same laptop. got it working my creating a file called "asoundrc" and put some stuff into it. worked like a charm! | 01:19 |
nicholas | now, is there a way to get a volume indicator? | 01:19 |
blurrorz | lol you changed nickname ? | 01:19 |
blurrorz | dont you have a speaker icon on the taskbar ? | 01:20 |
nicholas | yeh, change between nixus and this | 01:20 |
blurrorz | :P | 01:20 |
nicholas | didn't have an icon in the bar before, but have one now :-) | 01:20 |
nicholas | but is there a popup one? | 01:20 |
blurrorz | well if you click on it there should be a volume control popping up... other than that im not sure what you mean | 01:21 |
nicholas | like here: | 01:22 |
nicholas | http://www.google.com/url?sa=i&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=images&cd=&cad=rja&uact=8&ved=0CAcQjRw&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.digit.in%2Fforum%2Fsoftware-q%2F125548-need-volume-indicator-bar-windows-similar-linux-mint-volume-bar.html&ei=18S1VLyXE8P9yQTN74KICA&bvm=bv.83640239,d.aWw&psig=AFQjCNFUfS9-Ira0EXIV2TJEnhGcM7LI6w&ust=1421284947133808 | 01:22 |
nicholas | or here: http://i.stack.imgur.com/GEFwy.jpg | 01:23 |
blurrorz | thats beyond my knowledge... i dont know how you could change it to what it is by default... | 01:25 |
nicholas | ok, thank you so much for your patience with me (me=n00b) | 01:26 |
blurrorz | np | 01:27 |
blurrorz | other than the way it looks is there any useful reason to change it to what you want ? | 01:28 |
nicholas | well it's more convenient and more easily viewable than the puny little applet in the panel | 01:29 |
nicholas | and it is more detailed, as it should have many levels | 01:29 |
blurrorz | Lol :P ok then | 01:30 |
nicholas | but not neccisary | 01:31 |
blurrorz | yeah i figured :P | 01:32 |
nicholas | oh, mama mea, just got it working. put xfce4-volumed :-) | 01:34 |
nicholas | i used xfce before and was like, go figure, lxde already uses some xfce stuff (powermanager, etc) and yaya, happiest person :-) | 01:35 |
nicholas | I'm out, gotta go! TY! | 01:36 |
nicholas | NVM, can stay a bit longer | 01:39 |
nicholas | says that the volume mute, volume lower and volume raise failed, even though it works... strange | 01:39 |
blurrorz | yeah... | 01:41 |
nicholas | works though! :-) | 01:41 |
blurrorz | :P | 01:41 |
nicholas | are there any major differences between openbox and xfwm4? IDK | 01:42 |
blurrorz | hey thanks guys... remmina works great"! | 02:10 |
sak | Hello guys. I am new to this channel so please forgive my ignorance. I am not sure if this is the place to discussion lubuntu ideas for quality assurance or ideas to implement in the upcoming lubuntu releases | 02:40 |
ianorlin | no that is more the job of the lubuntu brainstorming team | 02:41 |
sak | what is this chat used for if you don't mind me asking? | 02:48 |
ianorlin | maybe #lubuntu-offtopic but not many on irc right now | 02:53 |
holstein | sak: this channel is about support for the lubuntu operating system | 02:54 |
holstein | !contribute | sak | 02:54 |
ubottu | sak: To contribute and help out with Ubuntu, see http://community.ubuntu.com and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ContributeToUbuntu | 02:54 |
sak | Holstein, when you say support, did you mean quality support or technical support? | 02:57 |
holstein | sak: this is, as the /topic states, support.. for the users of the lubuntu operating sytem | 02:58 |
holstein | sak: if one is using lubuntu, and wants support, one can ask for help here from a volunteer in the community here.. or, one can hang here and volunteer said support | 02:59 |
holstein | sak: if you want to "contribute", you can see the contribute link for helping upstream, or, as ianorlin mentioned, the "dev" channel is typically #lubuntu-offtopic,.. | 02:59 |
sak | Thank you holstein. This will be a very useful channel as I am running Lubuntu on my laptop as I type ;-) | 03:05 |
talsamon | hello, I tried to make a ".desktop-file", after this lxpanel don't work anymore, I purged lxpanel\* and reinstall it, then the desktop was puzzled - what happens with a so simple action ?, now I had to reinstall | 09:37 |
talsamon | hello, any answer to my question ? | 10:13 |
Newk | hi, i'm on lubuntu 14.04 and notice something strange.. when i change a menu-item with properties to "execute in terminal emulator" it does open LXTerminal but doesn't execute the command, nor does it set current dir to the set "working directory" | 11:40 |
Newk | hi | 15:06 |
talsamon | hello, how to fix, the lxpanel crashes in 14.10 ? | 15:49 |
Newk | i get the impression this channel is not watched much | 16:47 |
teward | Newk: it's not as active as other,s no. | 16:48 |
ianorlin | Newk well feel free to help out | 16:48 |
Newk | i dont know much about bugs in lxde | 16:49 |
testdr | Newk: hi (here you got your missing greeting) | 16:49 |
Newk | i try where i can | 16:49 |
ianorlin | one way to learn about things is lurking and looking at man pages for stuff you don't know that is how I learned | 16:50 |
Newk | (12:40:57) Newk: hi, i'm on lubuntu 14.04 and notice something strange.. when i change a menu-item with properties to "execute in terminal emulator" it does open LXTerminal but doesn't execute the command, nor does it set current dir to the set "working directory" | 16:50 |
Newk | i bet i cannot find much about that in man pages | 16:51 |
Newk | but it might give a hint if i knew more about the inner workings of lxde | 16:52 |
testdr | Newk: i user something like this in the starter-command-line: xterm -e "ps xfa; data; read key" | 16:52 |
ianorlin | ah I think this is a known bug | 16:52 |
testdr | Newk: sorry -- typing error its not "data" ist "date" to display current time | 16:53 |
Newk | why would i want to display current time? | 16:54 |
testdr | Newk: you may blame me - but i wont care -- this was only one of my samples, i use -- | 16:54 |
Newk | i dont blame anyone but my own lack of knowledge, thats why i' m here to ask | 16:55 |
testdr | Newk: i gave you a sample - you dont want to try and check? | 16:56 |
Newk | yes i was at it | 16:56 |
Newk | testdr: that seemed to work! | 17:00 |
testdr | Newk: fine - if this solves your problem -- cause normal xterm font is small - i usually use the optione "xterm -fn 9x15 ......" | 17:01 |
Newk | so i circumvent the issue by starting up a terminal with given commands beforehand instead of relying on the menu-configuration | 17:01 |
Newk | i could start a sh script | 17:02 |
testdr | Newk: yes - and you can blame me for this - i only noticed it works not how expected and therefor always used this "old way". | 17:02 |
Newk | ok! glad you could help me out :D | 17:02 |
Newk | thanx! | 17:02 |
testdr | Newk: i dont know if some propertys of such starter-desktop-files is interpreted in full from other windowmanagers | 17:03 |
ianorlin | I think starting console applications from menu is unforatnetly broken :( | 17:03 |
testdr | Newk: for example: you wont get any activity-response (spining mouse-curser etc.) like in some other window-managers | 17:03 |
Newk | i stuck to lxde for some time now.. i quite like it | 17:03 |
Newk | i think its the best.. and curious what the fusion with qt will bring | 17:04 |
ianorlin | https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/lubuntu-default-settings/+bug/1289881 | 17:04 |
ubottu | Launchpad bug 1289881 in lubuntu-default-settings (Ubuntu) "Terminal applications do not start (empty terminal window instead)" [Undecided,Confirmed] | 17:04 |
testdr | ianorlin: starting applications from menu is working for me - but i have to copy such a starter-file into the global directorys, where all other app-starter-files are | 17:04 |
ianorlin | no but htop doesn't for me as in this bug | 17:05 |
Newk | testdr: yes you mean the applications folder with all those .desktop files.. if i want to add one i also copy ones from similar programs | 17:07 |
testdr | yep | 17:07 |
Newk | i once tried this program "main menu editor" it worked (though it uses java) but i sometimes got doubles | 17:08 |
testdr | for the lxpanel-entries is possible to manually (with editor) add a local (in ~/bin/) desktop-file --- i never tried this menu-editor | 17:09 |
Newk | testdr: do you know something i could add to; either that line for xterm. or to sh script so that it won't close xterm after execution... so i can read what was logged | 17:19 |
testdr | Newk: my sample did use " ...; read key" a normal shell-command to wait for some input with return-key | 17:19 |
Newk | ah that was that for! | 17:20 |
Newk | i allready wondered :3 | 17:20 |
holstein | whats the goal? click a button, and run in terminal? | 17:20 |
holstein | but, you want it to be the lxterm? | 17:20 |
testdr | Newk: i did not write a shell-script for those few commands -- if you put everything into a shell-script (with bash-bang and executable) you can use a lot more functions | 17:21 |
Newk | well that would be best so i can copy paste from it | 17:21 |
Newk | hello holstein :) | 17:21 |
holstein | you dont want to pipe some output? | 17:21 |
Newk | no just to leave terminal op in the event of bugs so i can copy/paste them to report to dev | 17:24 |
Newk | *open | 17:24 |
holstein | terminal operation? | 17:24 |
holstein | Newk: what bugs? | 17:24 |
holstein | "they" may not want that.. i would try and just follow the normal bug reporting, and included tools, when possible.. | 17:25 |
holstein | !bug | 17:25 |
ubottu | If you find a bug in Ubuntu or any of its derivatives, please file a bug using the command « ubuntu-bug <package> » - See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs for other ways to report bugs. | 17:25 |
Newk | could help for all kinds of testing | 17:25 |
holstein | this is an interesting time for lxde, as its likely transitionning | 17:25 |
holstein | transitioning* | 17:25 |
holstein | it *could* help, but, its not necessary.. you can always look at logs, when asked, if the system hasnt locked or kernel panic'd | 17:26 |
Newk | for everything that was executed there is a log? | 17:26 |
holstein | Newk: i didnt say, or mean to imply that, but, thats not important, since, you need not log *everything* that was ran | 17:27 |
testdr | ask the NSA - it might record everything? | 17:27 |
holstein | for example, if its not in the ubuntu repos, is it going to get attention? | 17:27 |
Newk | lol | 17:27 |
holstein | you can find a *lot* of bugs for some things like skype, but, its closed, and there is not much that can be done | 17:27 |
holstein | there actually should be a "cant fix" or "upstream should fix" flag | 17:28 |
Newk | i would drop bugs at skype for that... not at ubuntu community | 17:28 |
holstein | Newk: they dont welcome them, so, users file with ubuntu, which is fine, im just suggesting, dont get too hung up on logging *all* your output like that | 17:29 |
Newk | skype did bug is enough when dropping support for alsa and only went for pulsaudio abstraction | 17:29 |
testdr | holstein: at last - i cant wait for fixing bugs, i need working now. For example dnsmasq using without cache, why use it at all, if used without cache? | 17:29 |
holstein | there are logs.. x logs, kernel logs.. if a "dev" sees the bug, they will ask for what they need | 17:29 |
holstein | Newk: nothing about ubuntu/linux/pulse/alsa prevents skype from supporting it.. but, to stay constructive, for the end user, there is little need to constantly monitor log output, since, it cant be addressed anyway | 17:30 |
Newk | yes that was what i was thinking from a testing user perspective | 17:30 |
holstein | for you, you can just follow the normal bug reporting proceedure | 17:30 |
holstein | look for existing bugs, isolate and test.. join existing bugs, or make new ones as needed, and get others, such as myself, to reproduce | 17:31 |
holstein | and, also, exercise patience, as, lxde is transitioning.. | 17:31 |
holstein | testing the iso's *is* helpful | 17:31 |
holstein | http://iso.qa.ubuntu.com/ and easy to address | 17:31 |
Newk | yes with lxde i have patience... it came a long way already with allot ahead too | 17:32 |
Newk | its my main usage in linux | 17:32 |
Newk | even on that little raspberry i got | 17:32 |
Newk | right now.. with pidgin | 17:33 |
holstein | you can always ask for support in #ubuuntu for pidgin, since it wont be lxde/lubuntu specific.. | 17:35 |
holstein | #ubuntu | 17:36 |
holstein | that channel is more active, and has more users, and the pidgin application is the *same*.. | 17:37 |
Newk | no i didnt meant i was testing that other then using it right now on raspberry to chat here... i was using that terminal thing for another program on another machine | 17:37 |
Newk | thanx for the advice tho :D | 17:38 |
Newk | testdr: -e flag works with lxterm too | 17:43 |
testdr | Newk: then the man-page for lxterminal is correct | 17:43 |
Newk | yes just did lxterm -h to find out | 17:44 |
testdr | Newk: oops - lxterm is for my setup the same like xterm | 17:44 |
Newk | indeed.. but lxterminal also supports -e i just found out | 17:49 |
Newk | testdr: ^ | 17:49 |
Newk | read key is not ideal.. i rather have it give a prompt so that it would only close when i tell it to | 17:50 |
* Newk googles | 17:50 | |
gil | Hi - is there an appropriate channel to discuss 15.04? | 18:52 |
wxl | as good as any gil | 18:55 |
gil | okay | 18:55 |
wxl | we don't have a qa channel | 18:55 |
wxl | or a dev channel for that matter | 18:55 |
gil | I'm not sure what the official term for the little icons that you click to expand things? Widgets perhaps? | 18:55 |
gil | For example, in the software updater, you can click a little triangle usually to expand more information | 18:55 |
gil | but anyhow, in 15.04 these are all invisible for me | 18:55 |
gil | was just wondering if this is a known issue | 18:56 |
wxl | screenshot for me? | 18:56 |
wxl | which 15.04 are we talking about? | 18:56 |
=== newbooter1 is now known as newbooter | ||
gil | Okay I can't take a screenshot because I have no updates to do at the moment and I can't think of another interface that features them | 18:57 |
gil | but if you check this out - http://www.opensourceforu.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/05/Ubuntu1204-04-Software-updates.png | 18:57 |
gil | the small triangle next to Details | 18:57 |
gil | that is what is invisible | 18:57 |
wxl | which 15.04? | 18:57 |
gil | wxl here's what shows for my version number - http://pastebin.com/3jVmBgD4 I did a force upgrade from 14.10 using software updater with the -d flag and have since kept it up to date | 18:59 |
wxl | hm | 18:59 |
wxl | assumedly that would give you the latest daily | 18:59 |
wxl | i'm not 100% sure | 18:59 |
wxl | what graphics driver are you using? | 18:59 |
gil | It'll be the integrated intel driver for the 4000 chipset | 19:00 |
gil | I'll find you an exact name | 19:00 |
gil | wxl it's the i915 driver | 19:02 |
wxl | do you have any other graphics issues? | 19:02 |
gil | Nope, none at all | 19:03 |
gil | it's only the little triangle widgets that vanish | 19:03 |
wxl | ok so that's probably not an issue but i think i've heard of problems with that driver | 19:03 |
wxl | so that's something to keep in the back of our mind | 19:03 |
wxl | no problems with 14.10 i'm assuming? | 19:04 |
gil | so it's not a major problem, in fact I've been surprised at how well the 15.04 works for me at this stage | 19:04 |
wxl | well usually new versions build on the quality of previous ones, so ;) | 19:04 |
gil | wxl there was one thing with 14.10 where every time I logged in I used to get a bunch of system error boxes appear | 19:04 |
gil | about 5 or 6 | 19:04 |
wxl | things may get funky when we roll lxqt out | 19:04 |
gil | I would just cancel them away and get on with it | 19:04 |
wxl | that may be because you had a previous crash that's still sitting around | 19:04 |
gil | but these boxes stopped appearing since I did the 15.04 u/g | 19:04 |
wxl | yeah i imagine it would wipe those out in the process | 19:05 |
wxl | if you have similar problems, either continue or wipe the files from /var/crash | 19:05 |
gil | but that's it, rock solid apart from that :) | 19:05 |
gil | ....oh yeah and chrome always crashes when I start it up cold | 19:05 |
wxl | chrome or chromium? | 19:05 |
gil | chrome | 19:05 |
wxl | hm | 19:05 |
wxl | how much memory you have? | 19:05 |
gil | but I set it to ignore future crashes so I never really see it crash | 19:06 |
gil | 4GB | 19:06 |
wxl | hm | 19:06 |
wxl | what version are you using? | 19:06 |
gil | I'm on the stable branch | 19:06 |
wxl | k | 19:06 |
wxl | when you say "start it up cold" what is the alternative? | 19:06 |
gil | Version 39.0.2171.99 (64-bit) | 19:06 |
gil | okay so basically, I start up Lubuntu and log in, click the Chrome icon, I then get a crash dialog box and Chrome relaunches itself and then everything is fine | 19:07 |
gil | stable for hours after that | 19:07 |
wxl | so there's nothing you can do to not keep it from crashing? | 19:07 |
gil | it's only the first time I launch chrome after a cold boot | 19:07 |
gil | wxl no, it always does so on the first launch. However, I select "ignore future errors" or whatever the option is, and so I don't see the crash box on launch | 19:07 |
wxl | hm | 19:08 |
gil | until google push an updated version out so I see a crash dialog again | 19:08 |
wxl | oh | 19:08 |
wxl | interesting | 19:08 |
wxl | this sounds like a chrome problem | 19:08 |
gil | so then I select "ignore future errors" | 19:08 |
wxl | i use chrome myself and have had no such issue | 19:08 |
gil | and around we go again :) | 19:08 |
wxl | there's probably a directory you need to wipe | 19:08 |
wxl | however, in general, i would suggest ALWAYS submitting crashes | 19:08 |
gil | Yeah I figured that was more of a Chrome issue, because generally lubuntu has been really really stable for me | 19:08 |
wxl | else it may keep harassing you, whether it be chrome, lubuntu, or whatever :) | 19:08 |
gil | I think I tried to submit it but was told it wasn't officially supported or what not, so I kind of gave up :-\ | 19:09 |
wxl | hm weird | 19:09 |
wxl | well | 19:12 |
wxl | gil: what version of lubuntu-artwork do you have? | 19:12 |
gil | I have two apparently: lubuntu-artwork 0.50 and lubuntu-artwork-15-04 0.50 | 19:14 |
gil | brb 5 mins | 19:14 |
wxl | iiiiinteresting | 19:14 |
wxl | loading a vm up | 19:15 |
wxl | oh man this is old | 19:16 |

wxl | updating | 19:16 |
ianorlin | wxl the copyright file fo lubuntu-artwork hasn't been updated in a while either | 19:16 |
wxl | yeah i saw the bug ianorlin | 19:17 |
wxl | do you have any experience with this problem? | 19:17 |
ianorlin | don't use chrome | 19:17 |
gil | wxl back if you need me | 19:22 |
wxl | 1s gil | 19:24 |
wxl | it's not about chrome ianorlin | 19:24 |
wxl | redescribe the problem with the triangle thingy gil | 19:24 |
gil | ianorlin the little triangle icon you click to expand things, such as "details" in software updater | 19:24 |
gil | it's invisible | 19:24 |
gil | everything else draws fine | 19:24 |
gil | it's just that triangle "widget?" | 19:25 |
ianorlin | gil did you change widget in lxappearance | 19:28 |
ianorlin | I filed a bug for that here https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gtk2-engines/+bug/1406807 because it only effected ones that weren't part of lubuntu-artwork | 19:29 |
ubottu | Launchpad bug 1406807 in gtk2-engines (Ubuntu) "multiple engeines missing widgets in software updater on lxde" [Undecided,New] | 19:29 |
gil | ianorlin I tried to change widget after I noticed the issue, but I've had the issue so far in both Lubuntu-default and Mist | 19:30 |
ianorlin | I can reproduce in mist but not lubuntu-default | 19:31 |
gil | Can you give me an example GUI that features the triangle widget so I can try? The only one I can think of is software updater and I need updates to be able to do that :) | 19:32 |
wxl | gil: 1s | 19:40 |
wxl | running software updater | 19:42 |
gil | This is weird. I was going to force version a package so I could get the software updater to find an update and display the widget for me to test it | 19:42 |
gil | but synaptic's force version menu item seems to be permanently greyed out | 19:42 |
gil | ahhh nvm seems some updates are coming down the pipe | 19:44 |
gil | yeah, widgets reappear in Lubuntu-default so that works for me :) | 19:45 |
gil | I wonder why it wasn't set to Lubuntu-default when I upgraded from 14.10 initially though? | 19:46 |
ianorlin | keeps files in home folder | 19:46 |
gil | Does 14.10 use Clearlooks as default? | 19:46 |
ianorlin | no | 19:46 |
ianorlin | but you still have the config in home folder that tells it what theme to have | 19:46 |
gil | ianorlin okay. Not to complicate things, but I don't think I *ever* changed the look and feel until I installed 15.04 and noticed the missing widgets | 19:47 |
wxl | so problem solved? | 19:47 |
gil | but if that's the only way it could not have been set to Lubuntu-default I suppose I must have :-\ | 19:47 |
gil | but yeah, problem solved, wxl - non default widgets are wonky :) | 19:47 |
ianorlin | some widgets are broken but work around | 19:47 |
ianorlin | well dark-panel still works | 19:48 |
gil | Now bring on lxqt! :D | 19:48 |
wxl | gil: you may want to file a bug against those widgets | 19:55 |
wxl | gil: file it against lubuntu-artwork and we'll figure out where it should go to | 19:56 |
gil | wxl it's already filed I think | 19:56 |

wxl | great thanks | 19:57 |
wxl | please confirm it | 19:57 |
