| ianorlin | iynque: that might be a bug but not very important | 00:27 |
|---|---|---|
| iynque | Yes, I saw a bug report online with the same spelling. I dunno what to do with the information though (because I’m a noob). | 00:29 |
| iynque | No idea what the origin is or where to fix it :B | 00:29 |
| iynque | (or how to find out) | 00:29 |
| vn | heya, hesitating between lubuntu, ubuntu and kali2 because of steam, hows steam setup doing on lubuntu lately? | 04:22 |
| ianorlin | vn it is the same as regular ubuntu. steam may need more gpu power than some old hardware, desktop environment does not matter that much for performance of gaming | 04:44 |
| vn | ianorlin: ok thanks, thought it may matter on setup, will try! | 05:05 |
| ianorlin | I am not sure you can install steam from lubuntu software center itself I know it is if you install the software-center package | 05:08 |
| ianorlin | if you use the .deb from valves site lubuntu installed it with gedbi last time I treid it | 05:08 |

| qzero | hi all | 09:30 |
| Ubik_ | anyone here? | 12:25 |
| redwolf | yes :) | 12:26 |
| Ubik_ | cool | 12:26 |
| Ubik_ | i made a persistent usb with version 15.10 and ran update manager | 12:26 |
| Ubik_ | and now I have a system error pop up bur everything runs fine | 12:26 |
| Ubik_ | is it a weird idea to update a live usb? | 12:27 |
| redwolf | the bug report dialog? | 12:27 |
| Ubik_ | there was a linux image (or so...) install | 12:27 |
| redwolf | yes, maybe the new kernel | 12:27 |
| Ubik_ | probably it says system error | 12:28 |
| Ubik_ | probably, | 12:28 |
| Ubik_ | and possbility to report | 12:28 |
| redwolf | a persistent system should work the same way a disk installed one | 12:28 |
| Ubik_ | ah ok , was wondring | 12:29 |
| Ubik_ | wondering | 12:29 |
| redwolf | I got errors to report sometimes, but that's nothing really serious unless you see real glitches that makes you unable to work | 12:29 |
| redwolf | so don't worry :) | 12:29 |
| redwolf | the apport app looks for every single little error it finds :) | 12:29 |
| Ubik_ | ok, no it runs perfectly, even sound that had to force reload works straight | 12:30 |
| redwolf | nice := | 12:30 |
| redwolf | :) | 12:30 |
| Ubik_ | do u think it is safe to install from this live disk? | 12:31 |
| redwolf | yes, I did it a couple times | 12:32 |
| Ubik_ | and do u know when version 16.xx lts will be available? | 12:33 |
| redwolf | the version numbers are the dates. so 16.04 means it will be released in April 2016 | 12:33 |
| Ubik_ | OK glad to learn that! | 12:33 |
| redwolf | :) | 12:34 |
| Ubik_ | do update manager upgrade the distro? | 12:34 |
| redwolf | yes, when the new release is ready you'll get a message allowing you to upgrade your whole system | 12:35 |
| Ubik_ | will that be a choice? i guess so | 12:35 |
| redwolf | yes, you can postpone it, ignore it if you want | 12:36 |
| Ubik_ | ok, thx for infos, I like the simplicity of lubuntu desktop | 12:36 |
| redwolf | we're glad you like it :) | 12:36 |

| epictetus | hiya. I just installed lubuntu on a laptop with an EMMC ssd, tried to setup duel boot, it just boots straight into windows -- it's a new (UEFI) laptop, i booted into rescue mode and reinstalled grub to /dev/emmcblk0 and same thing, it just boots straight into windows | 19:39 |
| epictetus | i did notice some /dev/emmcblk0boot0 etc devices, not sure what those are / if it's some EFI thing | 19:40 |
| epictetus | also the BIOS had options "boot of emmc" and "Windows boot loader", both boot options seem to do the same thing | 19:40 |
| redwolf | so it's a UEFI computer? | 19:41 |
| redwolf | have you used the UEFI (100mb) partition as a uefiboot partition? | 19:41 |
| epictetus | i mounted it in my rescue environment as /boot/efi I think | 19:42 |
| epictetus | while reinstalling grub | 19:42 |
| epictetus | inside the chroot | 19:42 |
| redwolf | have you prepared your BIOS? tried with legacy support? | 19:43 |
| redwolf | or at least deactivating secure boot? that usually locks down the grub load and jumps into Windows | 19:44 |
| epictetus | ooh I just disabled secure boot | 19:45 |
| epictetus | maybe secure boot is part of it | 19:45 |
| epictetus | nope hmm. Inside the UEFI folder I def see a "ubuntu" folder | 19:45 |
| redwolf | it was for me | 19:45 |
| epictetus | maybe I need to switch to legacy although it wouldnt boot off the usb lubuntu installer sick in legacy mode | 19:46 |
| redwolf | or just deactivating the secure boot. switching to legacy while installing and reactivating it after the setup process may lock it as well | 19:47 |
| redwolf | http://askubuntu.com/questions/582712/full-lubuntu-installation-on-usb-uefi-capable | 19:48 |
| epictetus | maybe i should just get rid of the stupid win10 partition I just thought "hmm it might come in handy some day" | 19:48 |
| redwolf | hah! I did that finally | 19:48 |
| epictetus | i was really really good with partition/bios/boot loader stuff in the LILO / grub 1.0 etc BIOS days but now this UEFI stuff seems like a lot more complicated | 19:49 |
| epictetus | ooooh figured it out kinda sorta not really. Once I "approved" the UEFI entries as secure now I can pick those, yay | 19:50 |
| redwolf | yyup | 19:50 |
| joseph | hello | 20:07 |
| === joseph is now known as Guest10575 | ||
| Guest10575 | I was wanting to know why I can't install programs on my computer | 20:08 |
| Guest10575 | I have the last verson from last year | 20:08 |
| redwolf | Guest10575, are you using the Software Center? | 20:10 |
| Guest10575 | yes | 20:10 |
| redwolf | and they download? | 20:11 |
| Guest10575 | no | 20:11 |
| redwolf | what error do you get? | 20:11 |
| epictetus | doh now sound doesn't work whoops hehe. | 20:11 |
| epictetus | noticing that alsamixer calls the card "HDA Intel PCH" and the chip "Intel Braswell HDMI" i wonder if it is only seeing the HDMI audio and not the main audio | 20:12 |
| epictetus | (it's some intel onboard thing) | 20:12 |
| Guest10575 | i get the error it wants to download files from untrusted sources | 20:12 |
| redwolf | untrusted? have you added additional PPAs / sources? | 20:13 |
| Guest10575 | do not know where to find that | 20:14 |
| Guest10575 | I have tryed to use terminal it acts like it is dowloading but it does not | 20:14 |
| redwolf | maybe you should change your download server. go to Software Properties (in System menu) and choose a closer server. refresh and it should fix it | 20:14 |
| Guest10575 | it is set on united states | 20:16 |
| redwolf | make it search for the fastest one and refresh | 20:16 |
| redwolf | sorry, I have to leave for a while | 20:16 |
| Guest10575 | ah ok, how do I do that | 20:17 |
| redwolf | in software properties, search for the sources / servers tab | 20:18 |
| redwolf | or in the main tab, "Download from" combobox | 20:19 |
| redwolf | tab "Ubuntu software" | 20:19 |
| Guest10575 | ah ok thanks | 20:20 |
| epictetus | crap, so it works on headphones but not on the speakers. whoops | 20:21 |
| phillw | hi Guest10575 | 20:26 |
| Guest10575 | hi | 20:27 |
| phillw | can you briefly explain to me the issue(s) you are having with the software centre. I've only had a prod to come and assist so do not know the issue(s) you are having. | 20:28 |
| Guest10575 | it was just saying that some of the files are coming from untrusted sources and then it would not download | 20:30 |
| Guest10575 | It would not update any of the files to get new products on the softwhere center | 20:31 |
| phillw | Guest10575: you need to add the security key for some ppa's... | 20:31 |
| Guest10575 | ah | 20:31 |
| Guest10575 | how do you do that | 20:31 |
| phillw | Guest10575: the quickest way to have LSC reset itself and re-configure is to launch lxterminal and issue | 20:33 |
| phillw | sudo dpkg-reconfigure lubuntu-software-center | 20:33 |
| phillw | then let me know what untrusted source you are trying to add. | 20:34 |
| phillw | wb redwolf | 20:34 |
| redwolf | :) | 20:35 |
| Guest10575 | it is showing up on all the things I want to download | 20:37 |
| Guest10575 | gimp | 20:37 |
| phillw | redwolf: ^^ how to reset LSC, jorn told me about it as part of bug 1467517 | 20:37 |
| ubottu | bug 1467517 in lubuntu-software-center (Ubuntu) "LSC can only 'see' installed applications - Work around released." [Low,Won't fix] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1467517 | 20:37 |
| redwolf | yes, sometimes in 15.10 | 20:37 |
| phillw | Guest10575: are you happy with the ability to install now. I was not familiar of it affecting a standard desktop system | 20:38 |
| phillw | Guest10575: if you gimp install goes okay, please do say on here. I can then update the bug. | 20:39 |
| Guest10575 | i am using 14.10 | 20:40 |
| phillw | *your* | 20:40 |
| Guest10575 | I am not at the computer right now | 20:40 |
| phillw | Guest10575: ahh, 14.10 is no longer supported... I do reccommend that you create a seperate /home are and use 15.10... You can update from 14.10 to 15.04, but get that done before 15.04 goes End of Life as well. | 20:42 |
| Langley | Hey, anyone awake? | 21:03 |
| redwolf | yes :) | 21:03 |
| Langley | It seems like all Ubuntu based distros occationally freezes on my system... any ideas? | 21:04 |
| redwolf | all of them?! | 21:04 |
| Langley | Every single one I've tried | 21:05 |
| Langley | Actually, Debian based. Mint Debian did it too | 21:05 |
| redwolf | what computer do you have? | 21:05 |
| Langley | Normal AMD desktop | 21:05 |
| redwolf | and what do you mean with "freezing"? | 21:05 |
| Langley | Becomes completely unresponsive randomly | 21:05 |
| Langley | In some distros I can sometimes REISUB, but only rarely | 21:06 |
| redwolf | have you tried an RPM distro just to compare? | 21:06 |
| redwolf | Suse, Fedora... | 21:06 |
| Langley | All those are fine | 21:07 |
| Langley | Opensuse was at least | 21:07 |
| redwolf | odd, I have plenty AMD chips here now. and my last computers were AMD K7 and K8. worked smooth | 21:08 |
| Langley | Yeah I'm stumped... it's really annoying since most Ubuntu distros are pretty nice | 21:09 |
| redwolf | well, I don't know what to say, if Debian and all DEB distros fail you should consider using another kind | 21:09 |
| Langley | Yeah I guess... Until I get a new computer in 10 years or so | 21:10 |
| redwolf | O.O | 21:10 |
| redwolf | it will work in the Raspberry Pi2 so.. :) | 21:11 |
| Langley | What will? | 21:11 |
| redwolf | Ubuntu and Lubuntu | 21:11 |
| Langley | Not powerful enough... | 21:11 |
| redwolf | but nice! :D | 21:12 |
| Langley | But I need power... Unlimited power | 21:14 |
| redwolf | O.O | 21:17 |
| redwolf | are you going to build a company or something? :) | 21:17 |
| Langley | Nah probably not. I don't even know if I would dare running linux in a company | 21:18 |
