| darsie | hi | 00:06 |
|---|---|---|
| darsie | What do you recommend to use for skype video calls? | 00:06 |
| wxl | um, skype? XD | 00:07 |
| darsie | Ok, so from the skype site. Didn't find it in synaptic. | 00:07 |
| wxl | right right | 00:07 |
| wxl | i think: | 00:07 |
| wxl | !skype | 00:07 |
| ubottu | To install Skype on Ubuntu, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Skype - To record on Skype, check: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SkypeRecordingHowto - Please use open protocols instead if you can, see !Ekiga | 00:07 |
| wxl | that MAY be updated | 00:07 |
| wxl | i think i just installed it from the skype site, tho | 00:07 |
| wxl | i also think it may still be in the partner repo | 00:08 |
| wxl | !partner | 00:08 |
| ubottu | Canonical's partner repositories provide a location for software vendors to publish applications. The repo itself can be added by running this in a !terminal: « sudo add-apt-repository "deb http://archive.canonical.com/ $(lsb_release -sc) partner" » | 00:08 |
| darsie | ok, thx. | 00:09 |
| wxl | np | 00:09 |
| darsie | I'm too exhausted for that now, though. | 00:09 |
| wxl | heheh understood | 00:09 |
| wxl | end of my day here | 00:09 |
| wxl | about to head out | 00:09 |
| wxl | so rest well ;) | 00:09 |
| darsie | thx | 00:09 |
| darsie | sem | 00:09 |
| darsie | same | 00:09 |
| darsie | btw, thanks for lubuntu. It makes this acer aspire one useful again. With Windows XP it was notoriously out of memory etc. | 00:11 |
| darsie | 8 GB SSD, 1 GB RAM, Atom N270 (IIRC). Single core (two logical) at 1.6 GHz. | 00:12 |
| darsie | before that | 00:13 |
| darsie | before that I tried slitaz, which was very slim, but it's web browsers didn't work, including firefox 10 (sic). | 00:13 |
| darsie | Well, they didn't work for some sites. | 00:14 |

| Guest20516 | can I use lubuntu on touchscreens? | 01:46 |
| holstein | try it.. should work fine | 01:46 |
| holstein | i wouldnt expect amazing mutli-finger support.. | 01:46 |
| Guest20516 | touchscreen tablets, lubuntu has that virtual keyboard too ? | 01:46 |
| holstein | there will be many virtual keyboards in the repos | 01:47 |
| Guest20516 | I see | 01:47 |
| Guest20516 | does lubuntu work on the fly with touchscreen tablets ? or do i need to install something from the repository to get the touchscreen enabled | 01:47 |
| holstein | Guest20516: there is nothing about lubuntu preventing that device from working with it | 01:49 |
| holstein | i dont have it, or know specifically what model it is.. or, if i did, if i could say it would support linux/lubuntu or not | 01:50 |
| holstein | but, i would just try it, since, lubuntu is completely free, and open for you tro try it | 01:50 |
| holstein | to try it* | 01:50 |
| Guest20516 | i mean, do I have to apt-get anything from the repositories to enable touchscreen in lubuntu ? | 01:50 |
| holstein | Guest20516: i dont know, friend.. ideally, the company that sells it would provide you that information.. but, they likely provide that information for another operating system | 01:51 |
| holstein | Guest20516: i would just try lubuntu, and see if it works. then, i would just read about touchscreen support in ubuntu, generally | 01:51 |
| Guest20516 | i know for certain that ubuntu works with touchscreen | 01:52 |
| holstein | i have personally only had access to a few touchscreens, and they "just work" with linux.. | 01:52 |
| holstein | Guest20516: lubuntu *is* ubuntu | 01:52 |
| Guest20516 | yea so it should be fine i guess | 01:52 |
| Guest20516 | thanks | 01:52 |
| holstein | no need to guess. just try it, live, or, install lxde in the ubuntu that you have tested | 01:52 |
| SparkMasterTape | Hey guys, I am trying to get an old sound card to work | 02:20 |
| SparkMasterTape | Dell Sound Blaster Live! (emu10k1x) | 02:21 |
| SparkMasterTape | I downloaded the package ld10k1 through synaptic which they call a patch loader | 02:24 |
| ianorlin | SparkMasterTape: does sound otherwise work on this? | 02:24 |
| SparkMasterTape | But thats as far as I know to go. I don't know how to have my machine use this driver opposed to the one thats currently not working | 02:24 |
| SparkMasterTape | Yes, it was an old Windows XP machine | 02:24 |
| SparkMasterTape | and it worked before the Lubuntu 15.04 install | 02:24 |
| SparkMasterTape | Its a 'Dell Sound Blaster Live!' audio card | 02:26 |
| SparkMasterTape | correction, emu10k1x | 02:28 |
| SparkMasterTape | after performing aplay -l | 02:28 |
| ianorlin | ah and that is only audio output? | 02:38 |
| nwdg | hello, trying to get some sound output from xchat, alsa's working but no sounds from xchat, anybody? | 09:35 |
| pmish | good morning | 09:47 |
| nwdg | morning | 09:48 |
| pmish | i have a question regarding flashing a bootable sd card | 09:48 |
| pmish | i use lubuntu for an embedded system but my linux experience is little | 09:49 |
| pmish | when i flash the sd card with that appropriate image i always get a root partition that is just large enough for the system | 09:49 |
| pmish | i get into trouble when i want to download additions to the system i.e. java | 09:49 |
| pmish | is there a way to use the whole of the sd card for "linuxroot" | 09:50 |
| pmish | ? | 09:50 |
| pmish | meaning one partition only | 09:50 |
| nwdg | lemme check | 09:50 |
| pmish | thanks | 09:51 |
| nwdg | you can plug the sd card in a machine and boot from disk to install lubuntu, then select the sd as destination and using gparted (which is the visual tool to create partitions) create a single partition on the sd and install the system there | 09:57 |
| pmish | okay i'll give it a try, thanks nwdg | 10:03 |
| nwdg | yw, let me know if u need help | 10:04 |
| abrakuku | been using lubuntu for years, just applied updates (which i do every day), and now: bluetooth manager has disappeared, vlc (installed by deb) has disappeared, tresorit (installed by deb) has disappeared, WTF is going on..? | 12:02 |
| leszek | abrakuku: the update manager should show you a big big warning box if it tries to remove something | 12:19 |
| holstein | abrakuku: disapeared? | 12:27 |
| abrakuku | after the reboot, everything i described did happen. i am 100% certain i didnt uninstall bluetooth manager (or vlc or tresorit), yet it disappeared, bluetooth manager is a system app. this then is my last day of ubuntu/or linux for that matter, its fckng ridiculous. cya | 12:29 |
| abrakuku | yes | 12:29 |
| abrakuku | going to Start > Preferences > its not there anymore | 12:29 |
| abrakuku | too tired for this bullshit | 12:29 |
| abrakuku | uninstall lubuntu | 12:29 |
| abrakuku | bye | 12:29 |
| holstein | another satisfied customer ;) | 12:30 |
| leszek | there are simply too many bugs all over the place | 12:57 |
| leszek | It doesn't matter which operating system | 12:57 |
| leszek | *buntu never ever learned to handle encrypted drives properly for example | 12:57 |
