cimbakahnDoes lubuntu come with any PPA's in its default installation?  And is it faster than lxle?09:21
hateballcimbakahn: no *ubuntu has any ppas by default09:59
adrian_1908Is 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
gilHi all - I posted on here yesterday issues about lid suspend not working since upgrading from 15.04 -> 15.10 on a dell latitude laptop14:33
gilI have since managed to resolve this issue by using new intel drivers14:33
gilSpecifically, I used the Oibaf ppa14:34
gilhttps://launchpad.net/~oibaf/+archive/ubuntu/graphics-drivers14:34
gilAfter installing this and rebooting, I've had no suspend issues whatsoever14:34
gilI hope this will help if anyone has this issue in future14:35
Piptonhi folks :)16:41
PiptonI have a problem I just cant seem to solve, looked all over the forums16:42
PiptonI have screen tearing during videos (netflix, youtube etc) with my integrated intel graphics (GMA 965)16:43
gilpipton try https://launchpad.net/~oibaf/+archive/ubuntu/graphics-drivers16:43
PiptonIll try it16:48
PiptonI have added the ppa gil, not sure what to do now though :/16:50
Piptonah, compton works now :)16:53
cimbakahnDoes lubuntu come with any PPA's in its default installation?  And is it faster than lxle?16:54
Piptoncompton is damn slow though16:54
Piptonany other solution than compton?16:54
cimbakahncompton just takes care of the symptoms, not the cause.16:55
cimbakahnSomeone gave me a command that you put in the terminal to fix it.  I'll see if i can find it.16:56
Piptonwell at least compton launched, so something has been fixed with what gil said :)16:58
cimbakahnsudo 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
PiptonTurn off tearing is part of the command?17:02
cimbakahnEither it is part of the command or it takes you to a place to turn off tearing.17:04
Piptonsudo intelcccle ... command does not exist17:04
cimbakahnI will get further info.17:04
Pipton:)17:04
Piptonthis is literally the only issue I have with this machine, it would be awesome if I could fix it17:05
Piptonlubuntu 15.10 btw17:05
Piptontried 14.04, 14.10 aswell17:05
cimbakahnAMD/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=on17:06
PiptonI have intel17:06
Piptonintel GMA 96517:06
cimbakahnThen where it reads amd, replace amd with intel.17:07
Piptonyeah but command not found17:07
cimbakahnThe option will not take effect until you restart X (i.e. log out).17:08
Piptonthat I do know :P17:08
cimbakahnStill looking for more info.17:09
cimbakahnAre you using compiz?17:10
Piptonno17:11
PiptonI am using vanilla lubuntu 15.1017:11
cimbakahnTo enable 'Tear Free Desktop' run amdcccle and go to: Display Options → Tear Free.   # aticonfig --set-pcs-u32=DDX,EnableTearFreeDesktop,117:12
cimbakahnTo disable, again use amdcccle or run:17:12
cimbakahn# aticonfig --del-pcs-key=DDX,EnableTearFreeDesktop17:12
cimbakahnOr run:  # aticonfig --set-pcs-u32=DDX,EnableTearFreeDesktop,117:14
cimbakahnTo disable, again use amdcccle or run:17:14
cimbakahn# aticonfig --del-pcs-key=DDX,EnableTearFreeDesktop17:14
cimbakahnI hope it works for you.17:15
cimbakahnDoes lubuntu come with any PPA's in its default installation?  And is it faster than lxle?17:16
wxlcimbakahn: ppa's are never supported, so no. not sure if it's faster than lxle but it does have a smaller footprint.17:17
leszekwxl: there are some ppas that are supported (like the kubuntu backports one). So there are some :P17:33
wxlleszek: ok, well, as a general rule, no.17:33
leszekyep. As long as the ppas devs don't claim otherwise17:34
Piptonno it did not work :(17:49
Piptonfixed it18:04
Piptonthough me trying other things makes many problems pop up18:04
Pipton*because I tried other things, system is kinda broken18:04

tewardTsimonq2friend: define 'problems'23:16
teward'problems connecting' is vague23:16
Tsimonq2friendThe 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 connect23:18
