| ModelEngine | hello, i have a bit of an annoying and severely frustrating problem that I need help with if anyone can spare some time :) | 02:11 |
|---|---|---|
| ModelEngine | I am looking to remove f.lux, however, when i go to remove it, the indicator applet is still visible in the accessories menu | 02:12 |
| holstein | !info f.lux | 02:13 |
| ubottu | Package f.lux does not exist in vivid | 02:13 |
| holstein | ModelEngine: did you add a PPA? | 02:13 |
| ModelEngine | holstein: i installed it this way: sudo add-apt-repository ppa:kilian/f.lux [Enter] sudo apt-get update [Enter] sudo apt-get install fluxgui [Enter] | 02:13 |
| holstein | ModelEngine: you ideally would get support from the creators of the app, or the maintainer of the PPA | 02:14 |
| holstein | ModelEngine: to be clear, you add f.lux? and you are trying to uninstall it? have you purged the ppa? | 02:14 |
| holstein | !ppa | 02:14 |
| ubottu | A Personal Package Archive (PPA) can provide alternate software not normally available in the offical Ubuntu repositories - Looking for a PPA? See https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+ppas - WARNING: PPAs are unsupported third-party packages, and you use them at your own risk. See also !addppa and !ppa-purge | 02:14 |
| ModelEngine | holstein: so i should contact the guy who made it. cool thanks :) | 02:14 |
| holstein | !ppa-purge | 02:15 |
| ubottu | To disable a PPA from your sources and revert your packages back to default Ubuntu packages, install ppa-purge and use the command: « sudo ppa-purge ppa:<repository-name>/<subdirectory> » – For more information, see http://www.webupd8.org/2009/12/remove-ppa-repositories-via-command.html | 02:15 |
| ModelEngine | holstein: nice, i will do that. you may have just saved me a massive headache, thank you | 02:15 |
| holstein | ModelEngine: thats my first step with the ppa packages.. trying a purge of the ppa.. | 02:15 |
| ModelEngine | holstein: just adding it now thru synaptic | 02:19 |
| ModelEngine | holstein: says it cannot find package list for ppa | 02:21 |
| ModelEngine | holstein: i mean, after i added ppa-purge | 02:22 |
| ModelEngine | holstein: sorry got disconnected somehow | 02:26 |
| ModelEngine | so i'm looking for info on changing key-bindings in lubuntu. I have opened the config file using: sudo gedit ~/.config/openbox/lubuntu-rc.xml | 02:59 |
| ModelEngine | Honestly, though, i'm lost after that. I would take a screenshot for you, but I don't know how to do it in Lubuntu, just Ubuntu, and I don't have that n e more | 03:00 |
| ModelEngine | in the config file, tho, it says that ctrl + alt + del is bound to the task mgr, but when i execute the key combo, it logs me out instead | 03:01 |
| holstein | lubuntu *is* ubuntu | 03:02 |
| holstein | but, there are many screenshot tools... i like scrot | 03:03 |
| holstein | but, you can just pastebin a config file, or part of it | 03:03 |
| ModelEngine | holstein: when i was using ubuntu trusty, it was real easy to take a screenshot, but not so much in lubuntu | 03:04 |
| ModelEngine | how to use pastebin? | 03:04 |
| holstein | ModelEngine: well, its typically more about what one is used to.. for exmaple, right now, in lubuntu, i use scrot, but, im sure if i were to load up ubuntu trusty, i would be asking you how to take a sceen shot | 03:04 |
| holstein | !paste | 03:05 |

| ModelEngine | holstein: lol :) | 03:05 |
| holstein | i have always just tried the prtscrn in any os, first | 03:05 |
| ModelEngine | holstein: here's the text: http://pastebin.com/0vW5VvV9 | 03:07 |
| holstein | whats happening? and what do you prefer to have happen? | 03:08 |
| ModelEngine | holstein: when i press ctrl alt del it takes me to the login screen. but i want it to start task manager | 03:09 |
| ModelEngine | holstein: btw, i really really appreciate your help, like alot | 03:09 |
| holstein | ModelEngine: sure.. let see if i can be of help with that, specifically | 03:12 |
| holstein | ModelEngine: i suppose, i would first use alt f2, or the terminal, and make sure i know the command to start what i am wanting to start | 03:13 |
| holstein | then, i would look at backing up that file, so i dont break the settings.. then, i would experiment, expecting to logout and back in to change the settings | 03:14 |
| ModelEngine | holstein: hokey diner! i'm def not that experienced with linux to be able to mess around and know what i'm doing. i'm happy to just live with it and use the mouse | 03:15 |
| ModelEngine | to open things up | 03:15 |
| ModelEngine | holstein: but thx for tryin :) | 03:15 |
| holstein | not sure what you are saying | 03:16 |
| holstein | i consider editing openbox config for shortcut keys *way* more advanced than testing a command | 03:16 |
| ModelEngine | holstein: i am not that confident using linux. i had ubuntu trusty for about a year and then switched my shop computer to lubuntu | 03:16 |
| holstein | you'll need to make sure you are telling the config file the proper command | 03:16 |
| holstein | ModelEngine: you may be more happy/comfortable in mate | 03:17 |
| holstein | ubuntu mate, or, just add mate to your lubuntu install.. they are *all* ubuntu | 03:17 |
| ModelEngine | holstein: what is mate? | 03:17 |
| holstein | mate will be quite similar to "trusty" | 03:17 |
| holstein | ModelEngine: its quite similar to gnome2.. which is what you are referencing being comfortable with, in trusty | 03:17 |
| ModelEngine | holstein: the reason i switched my shop comp to lubuntu is cuz it only has 512 ram | 03:17 |
| holstein | *nothing* makes you have more ram | 03:18 |
| holstein | anyways, if that machine ran gnome2, it should run mate fine | 03:18 |
| ModelEngine | holstein: no, i know, but it is really easy on sys resources | 03:18 |
| holstein | no doubt, lxde/lubuntu is nice, and easy, and fast. but, its lighter, and you are wanting more features, such as with gnome2 | 03:18 |
| ModelEngine | no sorry, my other comp with quad core process, 8 gigs of ram ran trusty | 03:18 |
| holstein | if you have not tried mate, consider trying it | 03:19 |
| ModelEngine | will it still be easy on resources? | 03:19 |
| holstein | if i thought it wouldnt fit your needs,i would say so | 03:19 |
| holstein | ModelEngine: as i said, *nothing* gives your system more resources | 03:19 |
| ModelEngine | holstein: cool | 03:19 |
| ModelEngine | holstein: I didn't understand a lot of stuff about lubuntu, but I feel much more enlightened since I've spoken with you | 03:19 |
| holstein | well, its great.. lxde/lubuntu.. its just lighter | 03:20 |
| ModelEngine | so thank you for taking time out of your day to help a complete stranger. | 03:20 |
| holstein | ligher can be less feature-richh | 03:20 |
| ModelEngine | holstein: sweet, i'll keep it in mind | 03:20 |
| holstein | no need to fight with the system, though.. | 03:20 |
| holstein | mate is intended to be a fork of gnome2 | 03:20 |
| ModelEngine | cool, thanks a bunch and have a great evening (sorry, gtg) | 03:21 |
| holstein | i use lots of different DE's, for different reasons | 03:21 |
| holstein | ModelEngine: cheers.. | 03:21 |

| CrazyTB | I'm using Lubuntu 15.04. Where can I disable gnome-keyring? | 17:58 |
| CrazyTB | In fact, I've spent the last couple of hours tring to find where the env var SSH_AUTH_SOCK is set, when I start a Lubuntu session. | 17:58 |
| CrazyTB | That var is not set if I start TWM, fluxbox or openbox "sessions". | 17:58 |
| macksting | Howdy. I just set up my computer again after a move to a new home, and for some reason I'm getting a serious kernel panic every time I try to boot up. I wish I could find a log which details it, but for some reason I can't seem to find one. If that's necessary to helping me, it'll be the first hurdle, I'd think. Regardless, can somebody help me rescue my precious? | 18:06 |
| macksting | I just carved a new boot disk. Wish me luck. | 18:22 |
