cimbakahn | Does lubuntu come with any PPA's in its default installation? And is it faster than lxle? | 09:21 |
---|---|---|
hateball | cimbakahn: no *ubuntu has any ppas by default | 09:59 |
adrian_1908 | Is there a central location for LXDE themes? It seems that these things are scattered wildly over the web with no clear indication what to use and whether it's up to date. | 13:27 |
gil | Hi all - I posted on here yesterday issues about lid suspend not working since upgrading from 15.04 -> 15.10 on a dell latitude laptop | 14:33 |
gil | I have since managed to resolve this issue by using new intel drivers | 14:33 |
gil | Specifically, I used the Oibaf ppa | 14:34 |
gil | https://launchpad.net/~oibaf/+archive/ubuntu/graphics-drivers | 14:34 |
gil | After installing this and rebooting, I've had no suspend issues whatsoever | 14:34 |
gil | I hope this will help if anyone has this issue in future | 14:35 |
Pipton | hi folks :) | 16:41 |
Pipton | I have a problem I just cant seem to solve, looked all over the forums | 16:42 |
Pipton | I have screen tearing during videos (netflix, youtube etc) with my integrated intel graphics (GMA 965) | 16:43 |
gil | pipton try https://launchpad.net/~oibaf/+archive/ubuntu/graphics-drivers | 16:43 |
Pipton | Ill try it | 16:48 |
Pipton | I have added the ppa gil, not sure what to do now though :/ | 16:50 |
Pipton | ah, compton works now :) | 16:53 |
cimbakahn | Does lubuntu come with any PPA's in its default installation? And is it faster than lxle? | 16:54 |
Pipton | compton is damn slow though | 16:54 |
Pipton | any other solution than compton? | 16:54 |
cimbakahn | compton just takes care of the symptoms, not the cause. | 16:55 |
cimbakahn | Someone gave me a command that you put in the terminal to fix it. I'll see if i can find it. | 16:56 |
Pipton | well at least compton launched, so something has been fixed with what gil said :) | 16:58 |
cimbakahn | sudo amdcccle Turn off tearing <---- This is if you have an amd. If you have the other one replace amd with the other ones name. | 17:01 |
Pipton | Turn off tearing is part of the command? | 17:02 |
cimbakahn | Either it is part of the command or it takes you to a place to turn off tearing. | 17:04 |
Pipton | sudo intelcccle ... command does not exist | 17:04 |
cimbakahn | I will get further info. | 17:04 |
Pipton | :) | 17:04 |
Pipton | this is literally the only issue I have with this machine, it would be awesome if I could fix it | 17:05 |
Pipton | lubuntu 15.10 btw | 17:05 |
Pipton | tried 14.04, 14.10 aswell | 17:05 |
cimbakahn | AMD/ATI claims that the "Tear Free Video" option is enabled by default, but that wasn't the case with Catalyst 12-3 installed on Kubuntu 12.04. If you're having issues with tearing, make sure that "Tear Free Video" is on. You can find this option in the Catalyst Control Center under 'Display Options' or you can use the following command: sudo amdconfig --sync-video=on | 17:06 |
Pipton | I have intel | 17:06 |
Pipton | intel GMA 965 | 17:06 |
cimbakahn | Then where it reads amd, replace amd with intel. | 17:07 |
Pipton | yeah but command not found | 17:07 |
cimbakahn | The option will not take effect until you restart X (i.e. log out). | 17:08 |
Pipton | that I do know :P | 17:08 |
cimbakahn | Still looking for more info. | 17:09 |
cimbakahn | Are you using compiz? | 17:10 |
Pipton | no | 17:11 |
Pipton | I am using vanilla lubuntu 15.10 | 17:11 |
cimbakahn | To enable 'Tear Free Desktop' run amdcccle and go to: Display Options → Tear Free. # aticonfig --set-pcs-u32=DDX,EnableTearFreeDesktop,1 | 17:12 |
cimbakahn | To disable, again use amdcccle or run: | 17:12 |
cimbakahn | # aticonfig --del-pcs-key=DDX,EnableTearFreeDesktop | 17:12 |
cimbakahn | Or run: # aticonfig --set-pcs-u32=DDX,EnableTearFreeDesktop,1 | 17:14 |
cimbakahn | To disable, again use amdcccle or run: | 17:14 |
cimbakahn | # aticonfig --del-pcs-key=DDX,EnableTearFreeDesktop | 17:14 |
cimbakahn | I hope it works for you. | 17:15 |
cimbakahn | Does lubuntu come with any PPA's in its default installation? And is it faster than lxle? | 17:16 |
wxl | cimbakahn: ppa's are never supported, so no. not sure if it's faster than lxle but it does have a smaller footprint. | 17:17 |
leszek | wxl: there are some ppas that are supported (like the kubuntu backports one). So there are some :P | 17:33 |
wxl | leszek: ok, well, as a general rule, no. | 17:33 |
leszek | yep. As long as the ppas devs don't claim otherwise | 17:34 |
Pipton | no it did not work :( | 17:49 |
Pipton | fixed it | 18:04 |
Pipton | though me trying other things makes many problems pop up | 18:04 |
Pipton | *because I tried other things, system is kinda broken | 18:04 |
Suudy | What is the password for the Lubuntu installer (so I can drop to the console during install)? | 19:13 |
Suudy | What is the password for the Lubuntu installer (so I can drop to the console during install)? | 19:28 |
wxl | Suudy: lubuntu | 19:32 |
Suudy | Doh! This is why I'm not a hacker... ;) | 19:33 |
redwolf | :D | 19:44 |
Langley1 | Hey, is there any easy way to make the cursor bigger? | 22:01 |
teward | Langley1: by 'cursor' you mean...? | 22:01 |
Langley1 | Mouse cursor | 22:01 |
teward | mouse pointer? the blinky line indicating where you're typing in the terminal or a text editor? | 22:01 |
teward | ah | 22:01 |
Langley1 | And why is Pidgin connecting twice... I'm both Langley and Langley1 | 22:03 |
Langley1 | Oh I was connecting twice... anyways, going to bed | 22:17 |
Tsimonq2friend | Im being told there is tech support here | 23:05 |
tsimonq2 | yes, there is | 23:06 |
tsimonq2 | someone wanna take it from here? | 23:07 |
tsimonq2 | wxl? | 23:07 |
tsimonq2 | teward? | 23:07 |
Unit193 | tsimonq2: Someone can't "take it from here", as no question has been asked. Please stop pinging. | 23:07 |
tsimonq2 | Unit193: sorry, obviously he is my friend, and he has a WiFi question | 23:08 |
tsimonq2 | take it from here Tsimonq2friend | 23:08 |
teward | tsimonq2: start by having your friend ask a ***real question*** | 23:08 |
teward | like someone who *wants* help :) | 23:08 |
* teward goes back to beating his switch which randomly stopped VLAN tagging | 23:08 | |
tsimonq2 | XD | 23:09 |
Tsimonq2friend | I am having problems connecting to my wifi with the following laptop | 23:10 |
Tsimonq2friend | goo.gl/L5Y29C | 23:10 |
tsimonq2 | teward: *there* is a real question ^ | 23:11 |
Tsimonq2friend | It is currently running lubuntu 15.10 32 bit | 23:12 |
Tsimonq2friend | And I believe tsimonq2 also told you that the laptop will not go into the BIOS | 23:13 |
redwolf | 32 bits? | 23:13 |
tsimonq2 | redwolf: x86, you know what he means | 23:14 |
redwolf | can't it run a 64 bit system? | 23:15 |
Tsimonq2friend | Idk the correct word, but the x64 iso wouldnt work | 23:15 |
Tsimonq2friend | redwolf: no it cant | 23:15 |
redwolf | ah okies | 23:15 |
redwolf | just curious | 23:15 |
teward | Tsimonq2friend: define 'problems' | 23:16 |
teward | 'problems connecting' is vague | 23:16 |
Tsimonq2friend | The network will not show up (which I am not sure if it is supposed to with lubuntu) and I added a manual network with my correct SSID and Securityand that would not connect | 23:18 |
tsimonq2 | teward: ^ | 23:23 |
teward | tsimonq2: stop pinging me i can read :p | 23:24 |
tsimonq2 | teward: sry m87 | 23:24 |
tsimonq2 | m87? | 23:24 |
tsimonq2 | m8 | 23:24 |
