[08:43] <Hadi> Hello
[08:44] <Hadi> I have some question about lubuntu
[08:44] <Hadi> Is anyone here?
[08:45] <bioterror> !ask
[08:49] <Hadi> I downloades Lubuntu AMD64  for my laptop,Can I use it for my PC or I have to dowbload 32 bit version?
[08:50] <Hadi> My pc : 3 GB ram, CPU 3700 ,Grapgic card 128 MB
[08:50] <Hadi> Hard 160 GB
[08:50] <Hadi> Thanks a lot
[08:51] <bioterror> needs more info regarding the CPU
[08:53] <Hadi> CPU Intel(R) Pentium(R) 4 CPU 3.6 GHz
[09:12] <Hadi> Is the information ok?
[09:14] <bioterror> yes, it works but I it will not be as nice as 32bit would be with that ammount of RAM
[09:18] <Hadi> Ok Thanks a lot
[09:18] <Hadi> Good luck
[14:49] <goldalex> hello, how to make working shorcut to executable game file in new lubuntu ?

[18:08] <Langley> How do I turn off display compositing, so I can use Compton instead
[18:12] <redwolf> Langley, the only way is "killing" compton
[18:12] <redwolf> pkill compton
[18:12] <Langley> What? But Compton is what I wanna use
[18:12] <Langley> Or are you saying that Lubuntu already uses compton?
[18:13] <redwolf> ah sorry :D
[18:13] <redwolf> what window manager are you using now?
[18:13] <redwolf> Compiz?
[18:13] <Langley> I don't know, whatever is default
[18:13] <Langley> In 15.10
[18:14] <redwolf> then you don't have compositing yet
[18:14] <redwolf> just run compton
[18:14] <redwolf> Lubuntu comes without composition. you have to install compton and tun it
[18:14] <redwolf> *run it
[18:14] <redwolf> Langley, http://lubuntu.me/tip-compton/
[18:15] <Langley> Wut...
[18:15] <redwolf> then you can add it to startup by using lxsession-default-apps
[18:16] <redwolf> any problem, Langley?
[18:17] <Langley> I thought compositing was required for graphical interfaces... then I dont even know what it is
[18:17] <redwolf> no
[18:17] <redwolf> compositing is a kind of app that uses some graphic resources to enable your desktop doing some special things
[18:18] <redwolf> like Compiz uses OpenGL of some Ati / Nvidia / etc. cards to enable effects
[18:18] <redwolf> Compton does the same using less resources, and of course, less effects
[18:19] <redwolf> you can run them or not :)
[18:21] <Langley> Is there any reason it's not included by default? To save resources?
[18:21] <redwolf> yes, and some graphics cards don't support those effects
[18:23] <Langley> In case it fixes my stuttering problem, I think it should be included... the stuttering is one of the worst things of linux
[18:23] <redwolf> anyway, once activate you are telling the gpu core (not cpu) to handle the screen drawing, so window movement can be a bit more fluid
[18:23] <redwolf> stuttering? in your screen?
[18:24] <Langley> In videos
[18:24] <redwolf> oh that, I don't think a compositor fixes that. have you tried using proprietary drivers or your graphics card?
[18:26] <Langley> The usual suggestion is to install Compton. But yeah the next step would be to install the blasted AMD drivers
[18:27] <redwolf> that would fix that. and you may need the drivers to make compton work properly
[18:30] <Langley>  So compositing is only 10 years old, huh...
[18:30] <Langley> For linux anyways
[18:32] <redwolf> :9
[18:32] <redwolf> :)
[18:33] <redwolf> actually, if you look at the wikipedia page, Commodore tried to do it in 1985
[18:34] <Langley> Yes... rip...
[18:34] <redwolf> no shadows or effects, but the goal was that applications stopped drawing themselves in the graphic memory. there was a "module" for that task
[18:35] <redwolf> then OSX "invented" Quartz, the same module tweaked, with some pieces of GNUStep able to drop shadows and produce 3D effects
[18:36] <redwolf> but the idea is always the same: direct rendering
[18:36] <Langley> I tried that GNUstep out on top of Arch some time ago... wtf is that stuff? A DE for museums?
[18:39] <redwolf> :D actually there's a new ISO now
[18:40] <redwolf> it's basically OSX / iOS without all the makeup
[23:50] <iynque> I was upgrading 15.04 to 15.10 and I noticed “scienze” http://pastebin.com/8qMzuU7e
[23:50] <iynque> :D
