| Andrii | hello everyone. Could you please help me to look for a solution, i'm trying to google, but it is hard to describe behaviour in search query. I have lubuntu 14.10 32bit installed. Issue is that when i'm opening a link from console in any browser (tried Chromium/Chrome/Firefox) with command <browser> "link" it works as expected. But if any software trying to openning link in browser it cuts it to 3 pages - http://http/ file://localhost | 13:53 |
|---|---|---|
| Andrii | i do not understand how to prepare search quesry to google for this :) | 13:53 |
| Andrii | anyone? | 14:02 |
| pgb | Andrii: can u give an example of "any software" you have used? | 15:28 |
| kian | Hello, anybody able to help me with 2 problems? My WiFi dongle cutting out every few minutes and can only be fixed by disconnecting, connecting. | 20:01 |
| kian | and another with a VNC Server (already setup, slight issue) | 20:01 |
| ianorlin | kian run lsusb assuming it is a usb dongle so I cna know what kind of wifi chipset it is? | 20:04 |
| kian | Bus 001 Device 002: ID 7392:7811 Edimax Technology Co., Ltd EW-7811Un 802.11n Wireless Adapter [Realtek RTL8188CUS] | 20:04 |
| kian | ianorlin: is what showed up | 20:05 |
| ianorlin | kian I have read people have problems if there access point is N do you know what your access point is but not for B/G | 20:08 |
| kian | it's G/N | 20:12 |
| kian | the dongle is B/G/N | 20:12 |
| kian | ianorlin: please explain | 20:12 |
| ianorlin | ah do you have other comps on the network that use N cause putting the acess point into G only mode makes that dongle not disconnect all the time from reading search results but won't be good for other computers | 20:13 |
| ianorlin | kian also which version of lubuntu are you on | 20:13 |
| kian | ianorlin: Majority is N devices, yes. | 20:14 |
| kian | ianorlin: 14.04.02 | 20:14 |
| kian | ianorlin: Can I force the dongle to connect through G? | 20:15 |
| ianorlin | ok I found an answer on askubuntu that someone made a patched driver that might work better | 20:18 |
| kian | ianorlin: link please | 20:18 |
| ianorlin | http://askubuntu.com/questions/551522/netis-wf2120-wifi-adapter-drops-signal-within-seconds | 20:18 |
| kian | ianorlin: possible to do this without connecing ethernet | 20:19 |
| ianorlin | http://docs.xubuntu.org/1304/offline-packages.html is a way to do offline package managment or if you have another usb dongle that works could use that | 20:21 |
| ianorlin | also is manjaro a laptop and this is a desktop? | 20:23 |
| kian | ianorlin: it's a desktop | 20:26 |
| kian | and what is manjaro | 20:26 |
| kian | ? | 20:26 |
| ianorlin | ah nevemind something else | 20:28 |
| ianorlin | misread something as a name of a linux distro | 20:29 |
| stiv2k | hello | 20:31 |
| stiv2k | how come I can't find libreoffice in the lubuntu software center? | 20:31 |
| ianorlin | stiv2k: it is defintely in repos but maybe something is wrong with lubuntu software center | 20:33 |
| stiv2k | ianorlin: right | 20:34 |
| ianorlin | stiv2k: maybe try syna | 20:34 |
| stiv2k | ianorlin: i see it in command line | 20:34 |
| ianorlin | syanptic | 20:34 |
| stiv2k | can i just do aptitude install libreoffice? will that install the correct meta package for lubuntu | 20:34 |
| ianorlin | yes | 20:34 |
| ianorlin | !sudo | 20:34 |
| ubottu | sudo is a command to run command-line programs with superuser privileges ("root") (also see !cli). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for more information. For graphical applications see !gksu (GNOME, Xfce), or !kdesudo (KDE). If you're unable to execute commands with sudo see: http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/fixsudo | 20:34 |
| stiv2k | i know about sudo, thanks | 20:34 |
| nopf | uh, i accidentally seem to have activated the desktop zoom function. i *think* this is ubuntustudio 14.04 based on lubuntu? which keys did i press? how do i use this feature? (for now i see only part of the screen, panning to where i move the mouse) | 22:09 |
| nopf | ok found it, alt-scrollwheel. this is great! | 22:10 |
| pleia2 | it's actually Xfce (Xubuntu) | 22:10 |
| nopf | yeah, that's another thing i'd like to have a good way to figure out -- what components are running on which of my machines and even more if people ask me for help | 22:14 |
