| Azlux | hi all, i have a problem. lxde don't want to start. so i'm on openbox since i have delete pcmanfm. I've trying to reinstall it, but still not working | 09:45 |
|---|---|---|
| Azlux | i suppose some setting are broken but i don't know with one | 09:46 |
| Azlux | idea ? | 09:47 |
| Azlux | i think some problem with the default program manager but i don't know what to do | 09:48 |
| leszek | Try to look for an error mesage in .xsession-errors | 09:49 |
| leszek | and yes pcmanfm is needed for lxde for drawing the desktop background | 09:50 |
| leszek | + icons | 09:50 |
| Azlux | this kind of error ? | 09:51 |
| Azlux | (openbox:1511): GLib-CRITICAL **: Source ID 11 was not found when attempting to remove it | 09:51 |
| leszek | but openbox is working fine ? | 09:52 |
| Azlux | openbox yes | 09:53 |
| Azlux | but no lxde anymore | 09:53 |
| Azlux | (openbox:1511): GLib-CRITICAL **: Source ID 11 was not found when attempting to remove it | 09:53 |
| leszek | yeah then this is just a warning I guess | 09:53 |
| leszek | pcmanfm installed ? | 09:53 |
| leszek | lxpanel installed ? | 09:53 |
| Azlux | yes and yes | 09:53 |
| leszek | lubuntu-desktop or lxde metapackages installed ? Maybe reinstalling them is a viable option if you removed some of lxdes components | 09:53 |
| Azlux | may be | 09:54 |
| Azlux | some dependences missing for lubuntu-desktop | 09:55 |
| Azlux | weird | 09:55 |
| Azlux | i reboot | 09:56 |
| Azlux | so i suppose it was that. depencies missing | 09:59 |
| Azlux | not it's working even if "Desktop setting" don't want to open itself | 10:00 |
| Azlux | than you leszek | 10:00 |
| Azlux | because desktop manager is not active ... O.O | 10:01 |
| Azlux | so with "pcmanfm --desktop-pref" --> Desktop manager is not running | 10:12 |
| leszek | pcmanfm --desktop ? | 10:13 |
| Azlux | yes to run the preference window | 10:14 |
| Azlux | but i have the same with pcmanfm --set-wallpaper | 10:15 |
| leszek | so no desktop basically ? | 10:16 |
| leszek | can you try to remove the config file of pcmanfm in ~/.config to see if it helps | 10:17 |
| Azlux | i have a desktop | 10:17 |
| Azlux | it's the desktop manager | 10:17 |
| Azlux | what do you have for the desktop_manager/command in the file .config/lxsession/Lubuntu/desktop.conf ? | 10:18 |
| Azlux | but yes i think it's the config | 10:19 |
| Azlux | yes it's that : the parameter of Desktop manager is linked to nautilus and not pcmanfm | 10:23 |
| leszek | ah | 10:23 |
| leszek | remove nautilus or set the mimetype to use pcmanfm that should work | 10:23 |
| Azlux | yes | 10:24 |
| Azlux | i will do that | 10:24 |
| Azlux | thank you | 10:24 |
| Azlux | need to lunch | 10:24 |
| Azlux | and thank you again | 10:25 |

| kj4 | hello, I have an issue where whatever workspace contains a terminal window 'steals' any ctrl-alt-arrow request to switch workspace, is there a fix for this? | 12:20 |
| whytrytofly1 | change one of the binds? | 12:22 |
| whytrytofly1 | terminal or windowmanager | 12:22 |
| kj4 | well, it might be the window manager, because it doesn't seem to matter which terminal app I'm using | 12:22 |
| kj4 | whytrytofly1: obkey did it, thanks!! | 12:27 |

| saabi | Hello, I need help with an issue I'm having during installation. | 17:11 |
| saabi | Can anybody help_ | 17:11 |
| saabi | ? | 17:11 |
| wxl | !ask | saabi | 17:11 |
| ubottu | saabi: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) See also !patience | 17:11 |
| saabi | Alright... The problem is I simply can't launch the installer. | 17:12 |
| saabi | I ran it from the command line and it dumps the core | 17:12 |
| wxl | saabi: did you check the md5 of the iso? | 17:12 |
| saabi | The system boots up fine from usb | 17:12 |
| saabi | it's the actual install command that fails: | 17:13 |
| saabi | lubuntu@lubuntu:~$ sh -c 'ubiquity gtk_ui' Fatal Python error: Py_Initialize: can't initialize sys standard streams Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/lib/python3.4/io.py", line 52, in <module> File "<frozen importlib._bootstrap>", line 2237, in _find_and_load File "<frozen importlib._bootstrap>", line 2226, in _find_and_load_unlocked File "<frozen importlib._bootstrap>", line 1200, in _load_unlocked File "<frozen | 17:13 |
| wxl | saabi: check the md5. | 17:13 |
| saabi | alright | 17:13 |
| saabi | wxl: thanks, md5 failed... | 17:19 |
| wxl | saabi: always first thing to check :) | 17:19 |
| saabi | I'll download again. I used the torrent for download however with uTorrent, which I believe has some error checking | 17:20 |
| saabi | Perhaps the Windows install has a virus... | 17:20 |
| wxl | !zsync | saabi, a better alternative to torrenting is | 17:20 |
| ubottu | saabi, a better alternative to torrenting is: Use zsync to update your Ubuntu CD image without needing to download the parts that didn't change. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ZsyncCdImage | 17:20 |
| wxl | windows? virus? naaaaaw | 17:20 |
| saabi | heh :) | 17:21 |
| saabi | zsync looks nice! | 17:21 |
| wxl | saabi: that's what the QA team uses | 17:22 |
| saabi | perhaps somebody knows the url to lubuntu-14.10-desktop-amd64.iso.zsync ? | 17:26 |
| wxl | saabi: you can just navigate cdimage.ubuntu.com | 17:26 |
| saabi | alright, sounds good | 17:26 |
| wxl | saabi: http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/lubuntu/releases/14.10/release/lubuntu-14.10-desktop-amd64.iso.zsync | 17:27 |
| wxl | saabi: they always follow the same format, so keep that in mind | 17:27 |
| wxl | saabi: also fun trick: if you change the name of your downloaded iso to the name of the iso you want to download (say, 15.04 when it comes out next week), and then zsync the new url, it will save you major time | 17:27 |
| saabi | While we're at it, right now I'm installing lubuntu on my laptop, but I'm thinking of replacing ubuntu on my desktop as well since the performance on the laptop is so much better. Is there a conventional upgrade path? | 17:27 |
| saabi | nice... | 17:28 |
| wxl | saabi: kind of, yeah. install the lubuntu-desktop package and then remove all the extra cruft | 17:28 |
| saabi | cool | 17:28 |
| wxl | !purelxde | saabi | 17:28 |
| ubottu | saabi: If you want to remove all !KDE, !GNOME and !XFCE packages and have a default !Lubuntu system follow the instructions here « http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/purelxde » | 17:28 |
| saabi | wxl: Thanks again! | 17:29 |
| wxl | saabi: np. let us know if you need anything else and if you want to help contribute to the project, there's always room for more XD | 17:29 |
| saabi | ubottu: You're a very helpful bot. | 17:29 |
| ubottu | saabi: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 17:29 |
| wxl | hahah it's so modest | 17:29 |
| saabi | It shows :) | 17:29 |
| saabi | wxl: If I have a chance I'd love to help out. Let's see how time allows me too.. | 17:31 |
| wxl | saabi: ping me if you want to discuss different ways you can help out. one way that's super easy is hang out here and try to answer questions for people. just listening you learn a lot! | 17:31 |
| saabi | wxl: I probably will hang out here just because it's so responsive :) | 17:32 |
| wxl | saabi: we usually are. we've got good coverage across different time zones. | 17:32 |
| wxl | saabi: do you already have a launchpad account? | 17:34 |
| saabi | wxl: I believe I set one up, though I haven't used it so far. | 17:35 |
| saabi | wxl: Alright, I blundered. I compared the md5 of the ubuntu 14.10 iso image to my lubuntu 14.10 iso image | 17:36 |
| wxl | saabi: it's good for reporting bugs *hint* *hint* :) it's also good for signing into the wiki if you have additions/changes | 17:36 |
| wxl | oooooooooops :) | 17:36 |
| saabi | wxl: After zsync I noticed it didn't download anything because the checksums mathced | 17:36 |
| wxl | ah interesting | 17:36 |
| saabi | So the md5 is not the problem | 17:37 |
| wxl | now i'm baffled | 17:37 |
| wxl | oh | 17:37 |
| wxl | well | 17:37 |
| wxl | the md5 of the media itself may not match | 17:37 |
| wxl | there can be a problem in both the download and the image creation | 17:37 |
| saabi | Could be, I transferred the iso using Universal USB Installer in windows, I'll do it again from lubuntu | 17:38 |
| saabi | Ah, silly me I can't, the USB stick is being used :) | 17:39 |
| saabi | Alright, I'll do it from my desktop ubuntu | 17:40 |
| saabi | Just gotta get up from the couch and head over to my office next door... :P | 17:40 |
| saabi-desktop | wxl: Preparing the USB stick with reserved extra space shouldn't be a problem I'm guessing. Right? | 18:08 |
| saabi | wxl: Using Startup Disk Creator worked. Apparently Universal USB Installer running on Windows screws something up. | 18:29 |
| wxl | saabi: yeah i've noticed different result from different tools, even within ubuntu | 18:29 |
| ianorlin | /usr/share/icons/Lubuntu/devices/16 might work from those existing | 18:37 |
| ianorlin | oops meant for -offtopic | 18:37 |
| saabi2 | Alright, finally running from my laptop installation :) | 18:44 |

| mr_rm | i'm running lubuntu 14.10 on virtualbox 4.3.26 r98988. i have "auto resize" and the latest guest additions installed. the panel bar seems to not redraw very well after resizing the vm window. sometimes when i make it smaller, the panel doesn't come back at all unless something repaints on the desktop. is this a known bug? | 21:39 |
| ianorlin | mr_rm: maybe try to save the xrandr output you want for the vm when you login in autoresize | 21:41 |
| position | hi, when I try to install from lubuntu-software-center it says that I have no priviledges to install | 22:33 |
| position | because I am not su | 22:33 |
| ianorlin | position: which version? | 22:34 |
| position | 15.04 | 22:34 |
| ianorlin | known serious bug but there is a workaround if you see on the testing tracker | 22:35 |
| position | what else should I install together with docky to configure docky? | 22:36 |
| position | I think it needs something else | 22:38 |
