| LWM | Hello hello, #lubuntu | 02:56 |
|---|---|---|
| LWM | I was going to go happily install 14.04.2 on an old laptop. So I downloaded the iso. Then I went to burn in onto a CD. | 02:57 |
| LWM | That's when I found out that the iso is bigger than a CD! | 02:57 |
| LWM | (standard cd) | 02:57 |
| LWM | ... | 02:57 |
| LWM | ...WHY? | 02:57 |
| ianorlin | the kernel keeps growing | 02:58 |
| LWM | Right. | 02:58 |
| LWM | The documentation should probably be adjusted to remove "burn to CD" from the instructions. | 02:58 |
| LWM | Just to reflect that it's not really an option any more... | 02:59 |
| ianorlin | hmm might need to point you to orginal 14.04 image and then update | 02:59 |
| Unit193 | !mini | 02:59 |
| ubottu | The Minimal CD image is very small in size, and it downloads most packages from the Internet during installation, allowing you to select only those you want. The installer is text based (rather than graphical as used on the Desktop DVD). See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD | 02:59 |
| LWM | Oh, good! | 02:59 |
| Unit193 | 30MB, everything else is downloaded during installation. | 03:00 |
| LWM | I'm golden, as long as the network card works from those 30MB | 03:01 |
| LWM | The "alternate" looks like it's less than 700 | 03:02 |
| LWM | !alternate | 03:02 |
| ubottu | The alternate CD has been discontinued for the main Ubuntu distro, please use and report any bugs in the !LiveCD | 03:02 |
| LWM | ...that's not inspiring. Is it still good for lubuntu? | 03:02 |
| ianorlin | yeah alternate still works assu19:56 < Love3> Yes love | 03:03 |
| ianorlin | 19:56 < Love3> Thought so | 03:03 |
| ianorlin | oops | 03:03 |
| Unit193 | Hah. | 03:06 |
| Unit193 | LWM: Yes, Lubuntu still uses alternate installer ISOs. | 03:06 |
| LWM | We'll go with that then; the victim...target laptop probably has low ram anyway | 03:06 |
| LWM | Thanks v much | 03:06 |
| Unit193 | Have fun. | 03:07 |
| zh1 | how can i access lubuntu keyring? | 10:46 |
| Garrick1 | comment avoir la meteo, cpu usage, networks usage, toussa toussa sur le bureau ? | 19:32 |
| l0p3n | Hey, where can I get the latest packages for lubuntu? | 19:41 |
| Unit193 | apt-get update && apt-get dist-upgrade ? | 19:42 |
| Unit193 | l0p3n: What do you mean by 'latest packages'? | 19:43 |
| l0p3n | Yes. I understand that. I should be more specific. On debian you can for example get the latest packages from SID. | 19:43 |
| l0p3n | This is done by setting sources.list to codenam SID. Is this necessary in Lubuntu (in order to download the latest packages). | 19:45 |
| l0p3n | ? | 19:45 |
| [FR]Dae | l0p3n do you have add the LXDE ppa ? | 19:50 |
| [FR]Dae | for have all update for your distribution ? | 19:50 |
| [FR]Dae | =) | 19:50 |
| l0p3n | [FR]Dae: Bonjour. How can I do this? | 19:51 |
| l0p3n | I have lubuntu as a live CD right now. Just looking for a lightweight bleeding edge distro. | 19:53 |
| l0p3n | debian-based too :) | 19:53 |
| [FR]Dae | Debian LXDE or Lubuntu ? | 19:55 |
| l0p3n | [FR]Dae: Ok thanks. What's the version of gcc on Lubuntu? | 19:57 |
| [FR]Dae | http://paste.ubuntu.com/10972756/ | 19:59 |
| [FR]Dae | gksudo leafpad /etc/apt/source.list (i'm not responsable for you error ) | 19:59 |
| [FR]Dae | =) | 19:59 |
| Jen_S | Hi folks. I have an older ASUS 1000HE netbook, on which I just installed lubuntu. This netbook, under windows, had software that would let you set the CPU clock (under/over). Can someone help me mimic this in lubuntu? | 19:59 |
| l0p3n | [FR]Dae: Wow that's one advances sources.list :) Thanks! | 20:01 |
| l0p3n | *advanced | 20:01 |
| [FR]Dae | optimised | 20:01 |
| [FR]Dae | BUT it's possible if you take some test with you distrib you lost the sound or nm-appl don't start | 20:02 |
| [FR]Dae | (network manager work but in back) | 20:02 |
| Jen_S | I'm pretty new to this. Could use some information on the "lubuntu software center" too -- is this pretty much the same as the software center would be on ubuntu? | 20:03 |
| Jen_S | software center, synaptic package manager, and gdebi package installer -- guess i'm not sure what the difference is in these :P | 20:04 |
| [FR]Dae | Jen_S sudo apt update -ymu --fix-missing && sudo apt upgrade -ymu --fix-missing && sudo apt-get -ymu dist-upgrade --fix-missing && sudo apt-get autoremove && sudo apt-get autoclean && sudo apt-get clean | 20:08 |
| [FR]Dae | in terminal | 20:08 |
| [FR]Dae | active on the setting of synaptic all update | 20:09 |
| Jen_S | Don't understand your last line... | 20:10 |
| [FR]Dae | open your synaptic | 20:11 |
| [FR]Dae | package manager synapic | 20:12 |
| Jen_S | Ok. | 20:12 |
| Jen_S | It is open. | 20:12 |
| [FR]Dae | and on the setting, mark all the box for have all update | 20:12 |
| [FR]Dae | after | 20:12 |
| [FR]Dae | open a, terminal and copy paste the commande | 20:13 |
| [FR]Dae | sudo apt update -ymu --fix-missing && sudo apt upgrade -ymu --fix-missing && sudo apt-get -ymu dist-upgrade --fix-missing && sudo apt-get autoremove && sudo apt-get autoclean && sudo apt-get cleansudo apt update -ymu --fix-missing && sudo apt upgrade -ymu --fix-missing && sudo apt-get -ymu dist-upgrade --fix-missing && sudo apt-get autoremove && sudo apt-get autoclean && sudo apt-get cleansudo apt update -ymu --fix-missing && | 20:13 |
| [FR]Dae | sudo apt upgrade -ymu --fix-missing && sudo apt-get -ymu dist-upgrade --fix-missing && sudo apt-get autoremove && sudo apt-get autoclean && sudo apt-get clean | 20:13 |
| [FR]Dae | oups sorry | 20:13 |
| [FR]Dae | just 1 time | 20:13 |
| Jen_S | (Also, the "notification bubble" that pops up in the top left corner is really ugly and hard to read. It's got like, multiple lines through it. Can that be adjusted? | 20:13 |
| Jen_S | OK I will do that. I am surprised all those terminal commands have to be used for a brand new installation. That doesn't seem very user friendly. :\ | 20:13 |
| [FR]Dae | not this option | 20:13 |
| [FR]Dae | just the box for update | 20:13 |
| [FR]Dae | application & update setting | 20:14 |
| [FR]Dae | you have 5 box (main, univers restricted, multivers, source code ) | 20:15 |
| Jen_S | yes they are all checked | 20:16 |
| [FR]Dae | close them all | 20:16 |
| Jen_S | uncheck them? | 20:16 |
| [FR]Dae | and open the terminal and past the command lign | 20:16 |
| [FR]Dae | nop | 20:16 |
| [FR]Dae | CHECK all | 20:16 |
| [FR]Dae | save and close (exit ) | 20:17 |
| Jen_S | they were already checked | 20:17 |
| Jen_S | nothing is checked under the "Other Software" tab | 20:17 |
| [FR]Dae | ok good update now | 20:17 |
| Jen_S | what does that do? | 20:18 |
| Jen_S | I am not sure why you are telling me to do this. | 20:18 |
| [FR]Dae | source no official | 20:18 |
| Jen_S | I don't know what "source no official" means. | 20:19 |
| [FR]Dae | No Official PPA source repository | 20:19 |
| [FR]Dae | and have to update you pc you have more chance resolve your probleme | 20:20 |
| [FR]Dae | so on first before ask "how to do that" | 20:20 |
| [FR]Dae | reboot, update, chec ubuntu-one / ubuntu forum and only after ask here =) | 20:21 |
| ilhami | hey | 21:06 |
| ilhami | how to format USB with dd? | 21:07 |
| Garrick1 | ilhami, dd ? | 21:20 |
| ilhami | :p | 21:23 |
| ilhami | dd tool? | 21:23 |
| ianorlin | ilhami: carefully I suggest running lsblk to show which block devices are on your system first and you need to know which ones they are | 21:26 |
| ilhami | ok I used gparted to format instead. | 21:26 |
| ilhami | How can I put a OS iso on the disk with dd then? | 21:27 |
| ilhami | an* | 21:27 |
| ianorlin | dd needs sudo to work | 21:27 |
| ianorlin | if is the imput file in this case is the OS iso | 21:27 |
| ianorlin | of should be the device of your usb but if you chose wrong you could erase your entire hard drive | 21:28 |
| ilhami | lol | 21:30 |
| ilhami | then help me out :d | 21:30 |
| ianorlin | I need to know how many drives you have as if its only one it is problaby sdb | 21:30 |
| [FR]Dae | ilhami me i use disk | 21:30 |
| [FR]Dae | on graphique mode | 21:30 |
| ilhami | ianorlin, yeah 2 sec. | 21:32 |
| ilhami | 2 GB RAM = 32 or 64 bit? | 21:32 |
| ilhami | can I check bits from BIOS? | 21:33 |
| ilhami | I have sda and sb | 21:34 |
| ilhami | sdb* | 21:34 |
| ilhami | and a sr0 | 21:35 |
| ilhami | I want it on the sdb which is the USB drive | 21:35 |
| ilhami | ianorlin | 21:36 |
| ianorlin | it is sudo dd if= of=/dev/sdb where if is the path to the iso | 21:36 |
| ilhami | sounds easy | 21:37 |
| ilhami | ianorlin, sdb has a sdb1? do I have to specify that ? | 21:51 |
| ilhami | https://dpaste.de/QENM check this | 21:52 |
| ilhami | I guess it's called a partition :P | 21:54 |
| ilhami | do I have to specify the partition? | 21:55 |
| ilhami | I ran the command, but looks like it's just loading. should I just wait? | 21:57 |
| ilhami | cursor is blinking | 21:58 |
| ianorlin | it can take a while dependent on usb speed | 22:08 |
| WovenMaggie | Hello I have an old pc like celeron 2400 1 gb ddr ram... crap video card...what is the best distro to run on it, im just going to use it for irc etc | 22:19 |
| ianorlin | Lubuntu would be fine in 1 GB ram for irc | 22:19 |
| ianorlin | I have done that off 512 MB | 22:20 |
| ianorlin | lubuntu really doesn't care about video card that much no fancy 3d effects | 22:20 |
| ilhami | I really love xubuntu. :) | 22:20 |
| WovenMaggie | ok | 22:20 |
| WovenMaggie | is lubuntu or xubuntu faster? | 22:21 |
| WovenMaggie | it had xp on it but its not secure anymore | 22:21 |
| ilhami | Both of them are fast I guess. | 22:21 |
| [FR]Dae | WovenMaggie give you XP and install Lubuntu on dualboot | 23:01 |
| [FR]Dae | is better | 23:01 |
