| Steffieke | Why I cannot install any linux on a P4 2.66Ghz ?? | 14:16 |
|---|---|---|
| Steffieke | I tried many distros | 14:16 |
| Steffieke | normaly lubuntu hAs to work on a P4 ?? | 14:17 |
| genii | Try the 32 bit | 14:18 |
| Steffieke | I did | 14:18 |
| Steffieke | are there importand bios settings I need to make? | 14:19 |
| NOOB_ | lxle? | 14:19 |
| Steffieke | lxde? | 14:19 |
| Steffieke | lxle ? | 14:19 |
| genii | What typically happens when you try to install? | 14:20 |
| hateball | Does the CPU support PAE? Even 32-bit kernels are compiled for that now and does not work with older hardware | 14:20 |
| Steffieke | I start booting up and I can select the language and keyboard settings and than it hangs | 14:21 |
| Steffieke | I don't thinks so | 14:21 |
| Steffieke | its a P4 2.66 | 14:21 |
| Steffieke | the live-boot allso hangs | 14:23 |
| Steffieke | only windows will install and Hirens bootcd works too | 14:23 |
| hateball | Steffieke: you can try https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PAE | 14:26 |
| Steffieke | thnx , but do you think an old P4 intel has pae? | 14:26 |
| Steffieke | I'll check that out | 14:27 |
| Freddie_Mercury | Does installing libqt5gui5 and its dependencies on Lubuntu 14.04 LTS break the system? | 16:38 |
| wxl | should not, Freddie_Mercury . it's just adding libs that lubuntu doesn't normally use | 16:40 |
| Freddie_Mercury | wxl, basically, it seems Minitube 2.5, the latest stable, requires it, but I was told in #ubuntu that since Lubuntu, which uses LXDE (non-QT so far) doesn't use QT, it may break the system> | 16:41 |
| wxl | Freddie_Mercury: sounds to me like they're guessing. as long as it doesn't remove gtk, you should be fnie. | 16:42 |
| Freddie_Mercury | OK. | 16:42 |
| Freddie_Mercury | Let me go ahead and take the plunge then. | 16:42 |
| Freddie_Mercury | wxl, install seems to have worked; now I'm finally able to install from the Minitube deb. | 16:45 |
| wxl | excellent Freddie_Mercury :) | 16:45 |
| Freddie_Mercury | Now, I hope this new version fixed the problem I was having. | 16:46 |
| wxl | best of luck on that one! | 16:46 |
| Freddie_Mercury | Apparently the Google API, it wasn't able to access it. | 16:46 |
| * Freddie_Mercury shrugs. | 16:46 | |
| Freddie_Mercury | Yay, works now. | 16:47 |
| Freddie_Mercury | :> | 16:47 |
| wxl | well if they make apis like everyone else does, they change every 5 minutes :) | 16:47 |
| Freddie_Mercury | Yeah. ._. | 16:48 |
| wxl | ooh | 16:49 |
| Freddie_Mercury | Hm? | 16:49 |
| wxl | glad it's working :) | 16:49 |
| Freddie_Mercury | Cheers. | 16:49 |
| phillw | Freddie_Mercury: ping | 17:09 |
| Freddie_Mercury | phillw: ping | 17:09 |
| phillw | I *may* have a work round to add the weather applet, if you are okay with terminal stuff? | 17:09 |
| Freddie_Mercury | Hm, what was the issue again? It disappeared when I minimized the windows? | 17:10 |
| Freddie_Mercury | "Iconified". | 17:11 |
| Freddie_Mercury | Because what I did was, just get rid of that toggler. | 17:11 |
| Freddie_Mercury | And now I use the virtual desktops. | 17:11 |
| Freddie_Mercury | To look at desktop. | 17:11 |
| Freddie_Mercury | I also added a Conky widget to the desktop. | 17:11 |
| Freddie_Mercury | And look at it the same way. | 17:11 |
| phillw | Freddie_Mercury: that was it, but I said to use the inbuilt weather applet.. which is not there in 14.04. But, if you have solved it using conky , no further action is needed | 17:12 |
| Freddie_Mercury | Oh, that. | 17:12 |
| Freddie_Mercury | What was your workaround? | 17:12 |
| Freddie_Mercury | Just roughly/ | 17:12 |
| Freddie_Mercury | (I don't use Conky for weather, just system stats.) | 17:13 |
| Freddie_Mercury | (I don't know how to do the URI stuff. :/) | 17:13 |
| phillw | Freddie_Mercury: I was going to send you weather.so to simply drop into /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/lxpanel/plugins | 17:18 |
| Freddie_Mercury | What does it look like. | 17:18 |
| phillw | 1 little applet for cloud type (sun, partially cloud, cloud, light rain, heavy rain... and night ones) and a temp applet in F or C | 17:19 |
| Freddie_Mercury | Very simple and small I guess. | 17:20 |
| Freddie_Mercury | Hold up a second, let me show you what my desktop looks like atm | 17:20 |
| phillw | also includes forecast for tomorrow | 17:20 |
| phillw | Freddie_Mercury: http://img35.imageshack.us/img35/8615/pluginwithtooltip.png shows it on tool bar and also the display when you click it. | 17:27 |
| Freddie_Mercury | Ohhh, it's an indicator. | 17:27 |
| Freddie_Mercury | Not a *widget*. | 17:27 |
| Freddie_Mercury | Like, a tooltip thing. | 17:27 |
| Freddie_Mercury | Whatever it would be called. | 17:28 |
| phillw | yeah, sits along side the other little indicators that you can add... Uses very little space up, which I like :) | 17:28 |
| Freddie_Mercury | Sounds good, I may get it. This is my desktop atm: http://s12.postimg.org/m8zdwz0gt/2015_09_22_192105_1280x800_scrot.png | 17:29 |
| Freddie_Mercury | Weather widget looks neat, huh? | 17:30 |
| Freddie_Mercury | I found it yesterday. | 17:30 |
| phillw | much tidier than mine, although I rarely see my desktop! | 17:30 |
| Freddie_Mercury | Heh, why is that, always doing stuff in active windows? :) | 17:31 |
| phillw | indeed.... IRC keeps me busy, and I over see a couple of Fb areas and get a fair bit of mail. | 17:32 |
| Freddie_Mercury | "Oversee"? | 17:33 |
| Freddie_Mercury | You're FB staff | 17:33 |
| Freddie_Mercury | ? | 17:33 |
| bioterror | some ubuntu related pages on fb | 17:33 |
| Freddie_Mercury | Ohh, nice. | 17:33 |
| phillw | no, I'm a mod for three lubuntu areas | 17:33 |
| Freddie_Mercury | Anyway. | 17:33 |
| phillw | and linuxpadawan | 17:33 |
