[03:21] i tried to access a sam's club free wifi and my system bogged down. killed chromium (but it was only peaking at %9 CPU use), still bogged with each boot it was worse. used the netbook interface and got full speed with the 1st boot but with each boot, it bogged down again. [03:22] also, I installed team meeting 4 days prior. no other system changes [03:24] in virtual terminal i see an "OVERFLOW" ... "buffer: 16383" message and it randomly types ^@ on its own [03:38] xorg is consistently using 55%-60% CPU, why? [03:53] how do you set it so that when you open a link from the email program it opens to a new firefox window in private mode? === Transfusion1 is now known as Transfusion [06:06] Hi folks! I'm installing on an old system and need to create a separate boot partition using the alternate installer. Does anyone have any advice? Ubuntu tutorials suggest I install, create the partition using Gparted, and then use Boot Repair Disc to fix the installation. But that hasn't worked for me. [06:42] Ctrl-C made the alternate installer segfault! D: [09:42] Hi there. I'm on vivid (dev) and interestingly steam appears to depend on xterm. In the dependencies it has "xterm | x-terminal-emulator", but apt tries to install xterm nonetheless. Is this a) an error wth the steam package? or b) an error with apt? [09:43] Also, because xterm provides x-terminal-emulator, isn't the dependency tautologous [10:00] So how do I tell apt that steam doesn't need xterm, because it already has x-terminal-emulator? [11:27] any Lubuntu devs here? [11:29] why are there so many packages installed on the live iso? the system only needs approx 1200 ! [11:29] No, we are all just fluffy white little rabbits :-) [11:52] how to install windows from my flash drive. the pc has lubuntu [11:52] srinivas, If your flash drive contains a bootable partition, you should be able to just boot it. [11:53] i tried to open the file. a black window opens but no automatic installation [11:53] what to do [11:54] What do you have on the flash drive? [11:54] windows 8 installtion file iso to create the environment i suppose [11:55] !windows [11:55] For discussion on Microsoft software, or help with same, please visit ##windows. See http://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+bug/1 http://linux.oneandoneis2.org/LNW.htm and /msg ubottu equivalents [11:56] I'm afraid you will have to get the iso file from the flash drive and write it directly using dd so it will be bootable. [11:56] Apart from that, hateball is right.

[13:25] Hi there, a question - I'm using Lubuntu to "revive" some old PCs that were originally designed to work with Windows XP. It works great, but the apps menu feels outdated and my less tech-savvy relatives can't seem to get around the OS without a search bar and the cleaner look of something like Windows 7/Mint/Zorin OS start menu. Is there any way to use a menu that looks more like these in LXDE/Lubuntu? [13:25] there is the Cairo desktop thing ido_ [13:26] anyhows i am not pro with lubuntu so... [13:26] rumial: I'm not referring to the launchbar itself, but rather to the app menu/drawer [13:26] i am myself having a problem. no one answered me yet. tho the Cairo desktop thing is very nice to use with lubuntu. you can find it where you download software for your lubuntu os [13:26] okey ido_ [13:28] I really just need a menu with a search bar and some links to, say, the internet browser and file manager without having to browse through the app categories, again much like Zorin/Win7/XP/Mint/Whisker menu. And Cairo is probably too heavy on RAM for these PCs lol [13:29] i have installed the mac os theme [13:29] however it is not recommended for new users [13:30] easy to mess up [13:30] ...... Lubuntu really is not this difficult to use anyhow. so maybe they can learn it too [13:32] Yep, it's perfect for the situation except for the lack of a search bar [13:32] I don't need any major shakeup for the system, just this elementary feature [13:35] i do not know where to find such... === IdleOne is now known as io [15:18] Lubuntu 14.04.2: http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/lubuntu/releases/trusty/release/ === idleone_ is now known as io [18:18] Ciao a tutti [22:38] Hi guys, I've installed Lubuntu 14.04 on my laptop. I've found one issue which I can't solve. Namely, the Volume Control doesn't appear. I've tried to add it manually, this doesn't work eather. I've also tried to play a movie, and the sound does not work also === idleone__ is now known as io [23:37] should CPUfreq works without gnome? If no, is there other CPU indicator which works with lubuntu? [23:41] sorry nevermind
