EzoWalkerhas anyone else had issues with update-manager not automatically checking for updates in 14.10?00:57
holsteinEzoWalker: hmmm.. TBH, im not sure, personally.. since i disable and use "sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade" manually.. will you run that command in the terminal, and post errors? and if none, install updates, and see if you get your updater working..01:08
EzoWalkerwill do01:09

holsteinif you'd like a volnteer to take a look at it...01:11
djoi298lubuntu hasn't evolved much over the past 5 years01:13
EzoWalkerhttp://pastebin.ubuntu.com/10721598/01:14
EzoWalkerseems i can only run my updater manually01:15
EzoWalkerwhich is fine01:15
holsteinlxde is what it is.. when lxqt comes, you'll likely see some evolution, djoi298 , if thats what you are looking for01:15
djoi298any new qt apps that will be shipping with lubuntu with the new lxqt?01:17
ianorlinnot for 15.04 but there is a ppa but isn't ready for production on lubuntu yet01:18
djoi298like Clementine or SMPlayer? heh01:18
ianorlinor anywhere close01:18
ianorlindjoi298: those are in repos already01:18
djoi298yeah, but the repos takes years to get updated, you can't use the Clementine remote with the Clementine in the repos01:19
holsteindjoi298: they actually dont *ever* get updated, like that01:19
holsteindjoi298: lubuntu *is* ubuntu, and ubuntu/lubuntu are not rolling releases, where, newer versions roll in.. just updates01:19
holsteinif you want something in lubuntu, its likely quite easy for the creators of that software to get it to you.. they can put it in upstream.. or, you can always maintain your own versions of whatever it is you need01:20
djoi298are LXDE themes copyrighted or something?01:22
ianorlinunder creative commons I think01:23
holsteindjoi298: its all open.. anyone can make a theme and release it as they want..01:23
djoi298they should add some of those nice LXDE themes with lubuntu01:23
holsteindjoi298: "they"?01:23
holsteindjoi298: you are welcome to add whatever themes you like..01:24
djoi298especially a dark theme to save battery life and make it easier on the eyes and such01:24
holsteinsure.. go for it ! :)01:24
ianorlindjoi298: I don't think dark theme actually saves on battery life with lcd screens01:24
djoi298it might help a bit, i'm sure oled screens on future laptops/tablets/netbooks would benefit more01:25
holsteindjoi298: add what you think will help01:26
EzoWalkerholstein: yeah- no idea either, manually updating always works for me, just wanted to try to get auto updates working for a change01:28

octavianWill I lose any data if I replace Ubuntu with Lubuntu?09:02
octavianThere is an option when you install: "Replace Ubuntu with Lubuntu" or somthign like that09:03
leszekyou will loose every data09:33
leszekreplacing means formatting the drive and install lubuntu09:33
hateballThere's no need to reinstall if you just want to change the DE09:40
octavianleszek: isn't there an installing feature like I said?09:41
hateballYou can just apt-get install lubuntu-desktop if you're using some $other-desktop and it will pull in the proper packages09:41
hateballthen you can switch between DE's at login time09:41
octavianhateball: I heard that lubuntu has some sort of ram improvemts09:41
hateballThe default DE uses less RAM than compared to Unity or KDE Plasma, yes09:42
hateballIt still has the same kernel etc etc09:42
octavianhateball: ok so the oly difference is the user interface?09:44
hateballoctavian: Yes09:45
octavianweird09:45
hateballMight be ubuntu-desktop has some other background daemons it depends on, I'm not really sure. Doubt that tho09:46

kb52Does anyone know how to get super-boot-manager anymore. All I get is 404 error on trying to fetch the repository.12:45
kb52Apparently directions I found from 2011 no longer work or else the author no longer maintains it.12:47
kb52Looks like nobody is here. Oh well.12:48

MoonsilenceHi! I have just installed lubuntu on a netbook but still think that the themes provided are to large for the small screen. Can someone recommend a small and compact theme and explain how to install it?17:21
