| NewMC | hi all, please confirm rm -r command would permanently remove directories? | 00:46 |
|---|---|---|
| genii | That's correct | 00:46 |
| NewMC | so /media/name (where name is user account) should only remove directories recursively under and including that directory? Or is it more robust than what I'm thinking. | 00:48 |
| NewMC | sorry: sudo rm -r /media/name | 00:48 |
| iynque | /media/name and everything inside it would be deleted, yes. | 00:49 |
| ianorlin | NewMC: yes but keep in mind you will want to know who has it mounted that media | 00:49 |
| NewMC | here's what I have, Android system with /data/linuxroot where I unpacked Lubuntu14.04 .tar image | 00:50 |
| NewMC | i flashed linux kernel in system recovery and booted to Lubuntu without issue, everything was working except it was not reading microSD | 00:51 |
| NewMC | this was supposed to be a known issue within the Ubuntu image and instructions to fix were sudo rm -r /media/tf101 (tf101 is the device but also user account that existed on image) | 00:53 |
| NewMC | this wiped my microSD and also did something within Android system | 00:54 |
| NewMC | I'm trying to figure out why it went beyond /media/tf101 | 00:55 |
| NewMC | thanks for answering my questions, have a good night. | 01:11 |
| genii | The first possibility that comes to mind is that things underneath of that directory were symlinked someplace else in the filesystem | 01:20 |
| iynque | rm -r shouldn’t ever ollow symlinks… AFAIK | 01:27 |
| iynque | follow* | 01:27 |
| jarnos | Someone is happy with Lubuntu's video playback. Vsync works apparently. http://askubuntu.com/a/647350/21005 | 06:17 |

| pitiye | can any one teach me how to increase screen brightness in Lubuntu 15.04 ? | 09:27 |
| leszek | pitiye: aren't the proper media keys on the keyboard working for you ? | 09:30 |
| pitiye | leszek: no | 09:30 |
| leszek | pitiye: there is a way to do this, if the driver and display support it via terminal and the xrandr command | 09:31 |
| leszek | pitiye: can you execute xrandr -q | grep -i "connected" to see the name of your connected output | 09:31 |
| leszek | it should be something like: "LVDS1 connected 1366x768+0+0 (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) 344mm x 194mm" the output name is then LVDS1 in this example | 09:32 |
| leszek | then you can put that output in the following command | 09:32 |
| leszek | xrandr --output LVDS1 --brightness 0.1337 | 09:32 |
| leszek | adapt output to your devices output and brightness to the brightness you want | 09:33 |
| leszek | brightness range is from 0 to 1 | 09:33 |
| pitiye | xrandr --output LVDS1 --brightness 1.0 | 09:34 |
| pitiye | i used this | 09:34 |
| leszek | did it work ? | 09:34 |
| pitiye | but still not bright as earlier | 09:35 |
| leszek | then maybe the brightness control is not detected at all by the kernel | 09:35 |
| leszek | do you have a file /sys/class/backlight/intel_backlight/brightness ? | 09:35 |
| pitiye | leszek: do i have to reinstall vga drivers ? | 09:35 |
| leszek | pitiye: do you have any proprietary installed ? | 09:36 |
| leszek | or why reinstall ? | 09:36 |
| pitiye | leszek: this is dual vga with intel and nvidia cards | 09:36 |
| pitiye | right now only intel is used | 09:36 |
| leszek | ah the nightmare and the reason why linus torvalds gave nvidia the middle finger :P | 09:37 |
| pitiye | :)))) | 09:37 |
| leszek | do you have nvidia card disabled in the bios then when only intel is in use ? | 09:37 |
| pitiye | leszek: no its not disabled | 09:38 |
| pitiye | i will disable it and let u know | 09:38 |
| pitiye | brb | 09:38 |

| undecim | When I hit my calculator button, I get logged out. What gives? | 18:06 |
| undecim | It's on a compaq laptop... The calculator button is right next to the left Ctrl on an extra column... And it takes me straight to the login screen whenever I breath on it | 18:07 |
| DWSR | Hey all, I want to remove lubuntu-desktop and all packages it depends on. | 18:32 |
| genii | DWSR: Remove the metapackage, then use sudo apt-get autoremove --purge | 18:51 |
| DWSR | genii: Removes nothing. I have removed both lubuntu-desktop and lubuntu-core | 18:52 |
| ianorlin | undecim: I think that is a bug in 14.04 | 19:15 |
| ianorlin | if you change ~/.config/openbox/lubuntu-rc.xml to not launch lxsession-defualt calculator and launch glaculator it will work around it | 19:16 |
| genii | DWSR: Alternately, but perhaps somewhat dangerous: sudo apt-get remove $(apt-cache depends lubuntu-desktop | grep "Depends" |cut -d' ' -f4 ) | 19:24 |
| DWSR | Do I need to reboot after that? | 19:34 |
| genii | I'd recommend it, yes | 19:40 |
| DWSR | It took quite a while to turn off, holy. | 19:57 |
