[10:58] <silver_m> hi can I install latest linux generic kernel to lubuntu 14.04 lts
[10:58] <silver_m> ?
[10:59] <silver_m> I think latest version is 4.1?
[11:00] <silver_m> can I install it tou lubuntu 12.04?
[11:00] <silver_m> or it will face problems?
[11:07] <BotchlaB> afaik, unless the distro packages it as an upgrade, you'll probably need to compile it yourself.
[11:59] <silver_m> can I install wily 4.1.0 kernel to lubuntu 12.04 LTS
[12:00] <silver_m> ????
[12:04] <BotchlaB> silver_m: Perhaps main #ubuntu channel may have more information, or ##kernel.
[12:05] <teward> silver_m: can you?  possibly.  Would you want to?  Probably not
[12:05] <silver_m> I mean 14.04
[12:05] <silver_m> not 12.04
[12:05] <teward> silver_m: i'd wait for wily to release first
[12:05] <teward> because you affect a lot more than you think grabbing a new kernel
[12:05] <BotchlaB> Same here, I just go with packages.
[12:05] <teward> sure you can do a by-hand recompile and installation, but keep your older kernels around
[12:05] <teward> because I can almost guarantee things'll explode
[12:06] <teward> whether it's libc, or drivers, etc.
[12:06] <silver_m> I mean kernel 4.1 can be installed to 14.04 lts
[12:06] <silver_m> ?
[12:06] <teward> silver_m: so apparently you didn't read?
[12:06] <teward> [2015-08-20 08:05:04] <teward> silver_m: can you?  possibly.  Would you want to?  Probably not
[12:06] <BotchlaB> silver_m: Yes, we understood you. We're saying it is possible.
[12:06] <BotchlaB> Or could be possible.
[12:06] <BotchlaB> But may not be very wise.
[12:06] <BotchlaB> silver_m: Note that I redirected you to ##kernel because kernel-specific issues are very finicky
[12:06] <silver_m> ok
[12:07] <teward> and #ubuntu wouldn't be the place to ask either, since Wily isn't released, and you bring Wily into the equation
[12:07] <BotchlaB> teward: Hm, even if it concerns an LTS?
[12:08] <BotchlaB> I suppose LTS support only extends so far.
[12:10] <teward> BotchlaB: they're mixing +1 and LTS
[12:10] <teward> and Wily kernel is probably not final-fixed-version yet
[12:10] <BotchlaB> teward: I see, that's the knowledge I was missing -- that +1 has the 4.1 kernel.
[12:10] <teward> so they're potentially ironing out kernel bugs.
[12:10] <BotchlaB> Or whatever version.
[12:10] <teward> BotchlaB: Wily is +1
[12:10] <BotchlaB> Right.
[12:11] <teward> [2015-08-20 07:59:59] <silver_m> can I install wily 4.1.0 kernel to lubuntu 12.04 LTS  <-- they said 12.04 here but said WIly kernel
[12:11] <teward> so it's the +1 kernel on current LTS
[12:11] <teward> untested, likely, and with the kernel not necessarily hitting its freeze date yet, i'd suspect there'll be other changes
[12:11] <BotchlaB> Yeah, 14.04 is what they meant.
[12:11] <teward> right
[12:11] <teward> even then, Wily kernel remains what they asked
[12:11] <BotchlaB> Yeah.
[12:12] <teward> urgh 45 minutes to the start of work, and nothing to do
[12:12] <silver_m> 12.04 was wron
[12:12] <BotchlaB> You know, Debian has a channel specifically (on another network) for +1 ; does #Ubuntu have such an equivalent?
[12:12] <silver_m> wrong
[12:12] <BotchlaB> silver_m: We know. :)
[12:14] <teward> BotchlaB: #ubuntu+1  ?
[12:14] <teward> !wily
[12:14] <teward> ubottu knows all
[12:14] <teward> all hail ubottu
[12:14] <teward> :p
[12:14] <BotchlaB> Hm, hold on... I know you from before, right? Did you used to run that bouncer service with Jose and ecks?
[12:14] <BotchlaB> Goddamn, what was the name.
[12:15] <silver_m> they dont allow me to enter #kernel it says invite only
[12:15] <BotchlaB> silver_m, ##kernel
[12:15] <BotchlaB> Two #'s.
[12:15] <teward> BotchlaB: yep
[12:16] <teward> BotchlaB: ecks went somewhere, no idea where, jose is with layerbnc now
[12:16] <silver_m> thanks
[12:16] <BotchlaB> silver_m np
[12:16] <BotchlaB> teward: Nice talking again -- I used to be known before as Metaleer or Bremsstrahlung.
[12:17] <teward> yeah i remember you :)
[12:17] <BotchlaB> ;)\
[12:17] <teward> BotchlaB: #lubuntu-offtopic for further social banter?  :)
[13:42] <silver_m> how can I install generic kernel in lubuntu? I type sudo apt-get install generic ???
[15:51] <eipi10> sup
[18:39] <Stringtoss> hey there, i upgraded from 14.10 to 15.04, and when I go hit "logout" now, nothing happens, i like to be able to switch between desktops sometimes, it works in cinnamon just fine, just not in lubuntu
[18:41] <ianorlin> Stringtoss: what happens when you run lxsession-logout ?
[18:42] <Stringtoss> absolutely nothing
[18:42] <ianorlin> Stringtoss: strange
[18:42] <Stringtoss> indeed
[18:43] <Stringtoss> reinstalling it says this  "lxsession-logout is already the newest version. lxsession-logout set to manually installed."
[18:44] <ianorlin> Stringtoss: did you change the window manager in lubuntu or anything
[18:44] <Stringtoss> no
[18:44] <Stringtoss> i didn't change anything
[18:45] <Stringtoss> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2264723  it's apparently a common problem
[18:47] <ianorlin> there is the nuclear option if you are only user logged in of running sudo systemctl restart lightdm will log you out but will logout all users and restart the display manager
[18:49] <Stringtoss> apparently if i use task manager to kill the process and THEN hit logout it'll work sometimes
[18:49] <silver_m> I upgraded kernel 4.1 low latency in lubuntu 14.04 LTS
[18:50] <Stringtoss_> whoever just told me to use the nuclear option, that semed to work
[18:50] <Stringtoss_> but i had to restart chrome so can you type it again?
[18:54] <Stringtoss_> wait i didn't quit
[19:20] <Tremere> namd leute. sorry für die störung, ich hab mal ne frage..
[19:20] <Tremere> hab eben smplayer installiert und das teil gibt keine videos aus, audio schon (restricted-extras ist bereits installiert). woran liegt das und wie kann ichs wieder beheben?
[19:20] <wxl> !de | Tremere
[19:21] <Tremere> thanks
[19:21] <wxl> no problem
[19:21] <wxl> sorry i can't speak much german XD
[19:22] <Tremere> i can try in english
[19:22] <wxl> works for me Tremere
[19:24] <Tremere> i installed smplayer but theres no video-output (just audio), "restricted-extras" already installed but smplayer still doesn't show video. did i make something wrong? how can i fix this? (sorry i'm beginner
[19:24] <wxl> !info smplayer
[19:25] <wxl> hm, i'd imagine that would work fine
[19:25] <wxl> try installing lubuntu-restricted-extras and see if that helps
[19:25] <wxl> it's possible that the meta package makes some assumption that's incorrect for lubuntu
[19:27] <Tremere> still no video..
[19:28] <wxl> do you have problems using mplayer on the command line, Tremere ?
[19:29] <Tremere> because i'm a beginner i don't understand the command lines (i only know apt-get)
[19:29] <bioterror> why use something else than VLC?
[19:29] <wxl> Tremere: try running `mplayer /path/to/video/file`
[19:29] <bioterror> it just plays anything
[19:30] <wxl> Tremere: for example try `mplayer ~/Videos/cute-kittens.mpg` if such a file exists XD
[19:30] <wxl> Tremere: although i do agree with bioterror that VLC takes the guesswork out of such things
[19:31] <Tremere> sorry, don't like vlc. mplayer is running correctly
[19:32] <wxl> Tremere: if mplayer works, then it sounds like it may be some sort of bug in smplayer. have you tried gnome-mplayer?
[19:32] <Tremere> yepp, works
[19:32] <wxl> then why do you want smplayer? XD
[19:32] <Tremere> it simply looks better ^^
[19:33] <wxl> though i can understand that, it appears to not be working
[19:33] <wxl> you may want to contact the package maintainers and/or simply file a bug
[19:33] <wxl> ianorlin: have you tried smplayer? it's a qt app.
[19:41] <ianorlin> yes I have
[19:42] <ianorlin> what is not working what kind of file I don't know what mpg is
[19:42] <ianorlin> it doesn't work quite as well as vlc for youtube videos though
[19:42] <ianorlin> but can play them over the network
[19:43] <wxl> Tremere: ↑
[19:43] <ianorlin> Are you selecting enque and then not hitting play
[19:44] <ianorlin> as that puts them in a playlist but does not start them
[19:44] <ianorlin> and is awesome once you figure out how to use it
