suncokretwhen you expect Lubuntu 15.04 to come?19:39
wxl!release | suncokret19:40
ubottusuncokret: Ubuntu releases a new version every 6 months. Each version is supported for 9 months to 5 years. More info at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases & http://wiki.ubuntu.com/TimeBasedReleases19:40
wxloops wrong one19:41
wxlsuncokret: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/VividVervet/ReleaseSchedule19:41
wxltl;dr apr 2319:41
suncokreti know that :)19:41
suncokreti mean for this new19:41
suncokretit will be for about 10 days?19:41
wxlapril 2319:41
wxl23 - 8 ≠ 10 :)19:42
suncokretand how long is in plan to keep lxde?19:42
wxluntil lxqt is released19:42
wxlhopefully 15.10 will be lxqt19:42
suncokretand 16.04 will be lts?19:43
wxlyep19:43
suncokretso it is in plan for 16.04 to be LTS with lxqt?19:43
wxlthere is no set in stone plan19:43
wxllxqt needs to be 100% good before we can release it19:44
suncokretso it have posibility to 16.04 still be with lxde?19:44
wxlit's possible19:44
suncokreti hope19:44
wxleverything's possible19:44
suncokretbecause i like lxde19:44
wxlbut lxde is going away19:44
wxlthere's really no development of it happening upstream19:44
wxland gtk is fraught with problems19:44
suncokretand tell me, if 16.04 will be with lxqt, will we have posibility to install lxde too?19:45
wxlno19:45
wxli mean i'm sure it will still be in the repos but we're not going to support it19:45
wxlit's not going to be a checkbox like "choose between lxqt or lxde"19:46
wxlif you want to do the work to switch everything out, you can, but you're on your own19:46
suncokretso it will be in repos like xfce, and we will can install it from repos?19:46
wxlyep19:46
wxluntil it dies on the vine19:46
wxlwhich will eventually happen19:46
suncokreti didn't try lxqt, is it have very similar look like lxde?19:47
wxlum19:47
wxlno19:47
wxlunless you think lubuntu and kubuntu look a lot a like :)19:47
suncokretso in future if somebody use lxde it can be problem to run some programs?19:48
wxlbasically the difference between the two is the graphics libraries19:49
wxlso let's go through some examples:19:49
wxl* you have lxde (and thus the gtk libraries)19:49
wxl* you want to use a program that uses qt19:50
wxl* you install the qt libraries19:50
wxl* it works19:50
wxland vice versa for lxqt and a gtk app19:50
wxlbut:19:50
wxlyou have lxqt and want to use some lxde application (like the old lxpanel or something) -- might be a little funky19:50
suncokretwhat is vice versa19:53
suncokret?19:53
wxlin latin, it means "the other way around"19:53
suncokretso lxqt will have similar lightweight and it will be more configurable?19:54
suncokretand it will use qt libraries19:54
suncokret?19:54
suncokretwhich version of Lubuntu you use? i plan to use 14.04 until new LST come, or maybe until it have support :)20:00
wxlsuncokret: yes, lubuntu is still about being lightweight.20:34
wxlsuncokret: i use 14.04 mostly but that's mainly because i'm lazy :)20:34
MajBwxl:  From what I have read LXQT uses only slightly more resources that LXDE uses.20:36
MajBMost of us are going to bloat it up anyway.20:36
wxlMajB: no, what you read was that at that current point in development, it used slightly more20:36
wxlthe goal, of course, is to get it on par or less20:37
wxlwhich should be attainable20:37
suncokreti am lazy too, but i think it is better to use 14.04 because it is LTS20:37
wxli wouldn't call it "better"20:37
wxlsometimes more recent software is better20:37
MajBI use 14.04 but have 14.10 also installed.20:38
wxli've used bleeding edge versions full time and never really ran into problems20:38
suncokretfor me is better because it have 3 years support20:39
MajBI have not had a problem with 14.10 and do not expect to have a problem with 15.04.20:39
MajBLet's not hang on to 14.04 just because it is LTS.  Remember when there was no LTS.20:40
MajBI have used Lubuntu since before it was an approved flavor.20:40
MajBEvery 6 months we waited to see what the new version would bring.20:41
MajBThere are always problems and most of them get fixed or patched before the release.  If not the smart guys/gals come up with a work around.  That is part of the fun of using Linux.20:42
suncokreti don't have time to set 14.10, or 15.04... 14.04 works great for me, i don't have problems20:48
MajBGreat.  That too is the beauty of Linux.20:49
suncokreti have problem... how i can have sound on speakers when i put headphones in?20:52
suncokretwhen i put headphones cable in, then i don't know how to change sound to go to speakers, only way is to take headphone cable out20:56
wxlwell said, MajB. with that atittude, i'm surprised you're not an ubuntu member and/or a regular contributor21:05
MajBsuncokret:  That is the generally desired outcome.  Plug in the headphones and that automatically mutes the speakers.21:05
wxlsuncokret: unmute the speakers21:05
suncokrethow to unmute speakers?21:07
MajBwxl:  I contribute to the Ubuntu forums, Ask Ubuntu, and the LXDE forum.  Never got around to applying for membership.  Having too much fun doing other stuff.21:07
wxlsuncokret: alsamixer21:09
wxlsuncokret: alternately are running pulseaudio?21:09
wxlsuncokret: you can check with with `ps aux | grep [p]ulse`21:10
MajBsuncokret:  Google is a Linux user's second best friend.  http://www.googlubuntu.com/results/?cx=006238239194895611142:u-ocqbntw_o&q=How+to+get+speakers+to+work+when+headphones+are+plugged+in&sa=Search&cof=FORID:921:10
suncokreti use pulseaudio21:13
wxlsuncokret: if you're running pulse, see here for lots of workarounds https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/alsa-driver/+bug/92139721:13
ubottuLaunchpad bug 921397 in alsa-driver (Ubuntu) "Speaker audio channel goes mute after plugging in the headphone" [Undecided,Triaged]21:13
suncokretand in out devices i have analog headphones21:13
suncokretand analog out21:13
wxlout is out :)21:14
suncokretwhen i choose analog out speakers still don't work21:14
suncokretonly when i plug out headphones, then speakers work21:14
wxlyou need to make it unmuted and pump up the volume21:14
wxlsuncokret: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/16306867/xfce-speakers-stays-on-when-headphones-is-connected also might be useful21:15
* wxl doesn't like using pulse because then you have to make sure that both pulse and alsa are on the same page21:15
wxlMajB: ahh well coool. thanks for the help. if you want some help applying for membership, i'd be happy to help.21:15
wxlMajB: it does have its benefits https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Membership#Benefits_of_Membership (includes a nice cloak on irc so i can't see what your ip address is anymore)21:16
suncokretthat is not same problem21:16
wxlsuncokret: the first one is21:17
suncokreti go to pulse mixer21:17
