|---|---|---|
| rainmayyetcome | is there a problem with flash for lubuntu "try without installing" | 02:23 |
| rainmayyetcome | some youtube videos work and some do not, many flash applications do not work | 02:23 |
| rainmayyetcome | this is what i am seeing | 02:25 |
| rainmayyetcome | well first it says a plugin is missing and then it says that i need to install flash afterwards | 02:25 |
| rainmayyetcome | although flash is already installed/multiverse already set up | 02:25 |
| Unit193 | Is whatever browser you're using detecting flash and not blocking it? | 02:27 |
| rainmayyetcome | am using stock firefox | 02:27 |
| rainmayyetcome | detects flash as in some youtube videos work | 02:27 |
| rainmayyetcome | does not appear to be blocking some youtube videos | 02:27 |
| Unit193 | Perhaps the html5 ones? | 02:27 |
| rainmayyetcome | ah, possibly | 02:27 |
| rainmayyetcome | yes | 02:27 |
| rainmayyetcome | like tinychat, if tinychat uses html5 | 02:28 |
| Unit193 | Anywho, you can also try adobe-flashplugin from the partner repos, and browser-plugin-freshplayer-pepperflash | 02:28 |
| Unit193 | Should check the top bar to see if FF says anything about blocking, and in the Addons manager. | 02:28 |
| rainmayyetcome | will do | 02:30 |
| rainmayyetcome | let me try that pepperflash | 02:30 |
| rainmayyetcome | i think i've heard of that before | 02:30 |
| Unit193 | You'll have to have adobe-flashplugin to go along with that. | 02:30 |
| Unit193 | !info adobe-flashplugin partner | 02:30 |
| ubottu | adobe-flashplugin (source: adobe-flashplugin): Adobe Flash Player plugin. In component main, is optional. Version 1:20151208.1-0ubuntu0.15.04.1 (partner), package size 9251 kB, installed size 31389 kB (Only available for i386; amd64) | 02:30 |
| rainmayyetcome | did sudo apt-get install adobe-flash and i get unable to locate package adobe-flash | 02:32 |
| rainmayyetcome | E: Package 'adobe-flashplugin' has no installation candidate | 02:32 |
| Unit193 | !partner | 02:33 |
| ubottu | Canonical's partner repositories provide a location for software vendors to publish applications. The repo itself can be added by running this in a !terminal: « sudo add-apt-repository "deb http://archive.canonical.com/ $(lsb_release -sc) partner" » | 02:33 |

| tachibana | D: | 02:33 |
| rainmayyetcome | ah idk how to do the command line lol | 02:34 |
| rainmayyetcome | couldn't find any addon called pepperflash | 02:34 |
| Unit193 | rainmayyetcome: You can likely also open Software Souces and checkbox the partner repo. | 02:35 |
| rainmayyetcome | not sure what you guys are referring to, but going to add "adob e flash plugin to the add apps basket | 02:37 |
| rainmayyetcome | and update real quick | 02:37 |
| rainmayyetcome | oh okay on software & updates/other software | 02:39 |
| rainmayyetcome | canonical partners is checked but canonical partners (source code) is not checked | 02:39 |
| Unit193 | That's fine. Then all you have to do is refresh apt cache (or whatever the thing calls it) and then install adobe-flashplugin. | 02:40 |
| rainmayyetcome | not sure that'll do anything | 02:40 |

| leyla_29 | hello does anyone here using lxle? | 05:57 |
| SlidingHorn | leyla_29: I'm not, but what's your question? Just asking outright might be more effective :) | 06:00 |
| leyla_29 | i want to make a launcher for updates (synaptic package manager) on the desktop | 06:01 |
| leyla_29 | ive put lxle on a friends computer and she isn't very computer literate really, so it'd be easier if i could just show her an application on the desktop for her to double click once a week to keep her system up to date | 06:02 |
| SlidingHorn | ok, well, first, LXLE, isn't technically supported here., you'd have to go to their actual channel, but let me see if I can help | 06:02 |
| leyla_29 | thanks | 06:03 |
| leyla_29 | and i couldn't find a channel for lxle, do you know what it's called? | 06:03 |
| SlidingHorn | #lxle here on freenode | 06:04 |
| bioterror | put update.sh on her desktop | 06:04 |
| bioterror | and there you can put sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade | 06:04 |
| leyla_29 | thats a good idea bioterror | 06:05 |
| leyla_29 | but using sudo apt-get upgrade installs all levels of upgrades | 06:05 |
| leyla_29 | even the level 4 and 5 risky ones | 06:05 |
| SlidingHorn | leyla_29: didn't mean to send you to an empty channel, but that's supposedly their spot, lol | 06:06 |
| leyla_29 | lol yes i did check that one when i first connected | 06:06 |
| leyla_29 | bio: is it better to run upgrade or dist-upgrade? | 06:07 |
| leyla_29 | bio: and how do i make it executable? | 06:08 |
| SlidingHorn | leyla_29: I always use dist-upgrade | 06:08 |
| leyla_29 | chown +x | 06:08 |
| leyla_29 | ? | 06:08 |
| SlidingHorn | sudo chmod +x <filename> | 06:09 |
| leyla_29 | thanks | 06:10 |
| leyla_29 | well that will do i think | 06:10 |
| utu8o | has anyone tested Lubuntu on the Kangaroo desktop pc? | 08:17 |
| utu8o | the Kangaroo Desktop PC is an incredible value for only $99 you guy a complete PC with full Windows 10, cheaper than buying Windows 10 alone! My question is can Lbuntu install and run well on this PC? I heard the Kangaroo has proprietary hardware... | 08:18 |
| utu8o | it only has audio output via HDMI for example | 08:18 |
| utu8o | it has a finger print reader, bluetooth, WIFI... etc | 08:19 |
| utu8o | this is what i'm talking about http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16883722001 | 08:20 |
| SlidingHorn | utu8o: only way to find out is to try it...grab a LiveUSB and give it a shot | 08:30 |
| bioterror | http://www.newegg.com/global/sg/Product/SingleProductReview.aspx?ReviewID=4474725 | 08:33 |
| SlidingHorn | bioterror: nice find | 08:36 |

| eipi10 | is 230 MB normal RAM usage at idle with 14.04? | 11:15 |
| utu8o | yeah probably | 11:15 |
| bioterror | quite like, if you have opened web browser, terminal and shut them down | 11:19 |
| eipi10 | yeah, exactly bio. This is after start-up. | 11:20 |
| eipi10 | my other computer with 14.04 runs at about 140. | 11:21 |
| bioterror | and you've used "free" command to check that usage out? | 11:21 |
| eipi10 | no | 11:22 |
| eipi10 | can you advise? | 11:22 |
| bioterror | http://www.linuxnix.com/find-ram-size-in-linuxunix/ | 11:23 |
| eipi10 | thanks | 11:23 |
| eipi10 | yeah, that checks out using free. With a browser window, htop, hexchat, and lx term, it's about 470MB. | 11:34 |
| bioterror | quite high, I think | 11:35 |
| eipi10 | whats yours? | 11:36 |
| utu8o | LXDE on Debain only uses like 110 MB RAM | 11:38 |
| bioterror | http://ricecows.org/ram_usage.txt | 11:38 |
| utu8o | LXDE on Trisquel Mini uses around 160 MB RAM | 11:38 |
| utu8o | Lubuntu was around 230 MB of RAM for me too | 11:39 |
| utu8o | probably just Ubuntu spyware or something | 11:39 |
| eipi10 | I've been getting a lot of updates lately | 11:40 |
| bioterror | lubuntu has lots of stuff running, that explain the usage | 11:41 |
| bioterror | network manager and others | 11:41 |
| Unit193 | htop | 11:42 |
| eipi10 | hey Unit | 11:42 |
| eipi10 | yeah, I have nm and update notifier working | 11:42 |
| bioterror | Unit193, htop is defacto? | 11:42 |
| Unit193 | Should be, but doubt it. | 11:43 |
| eipi10 | thanks for the input. I was just wondering why there was a difference compared to the other computer with the same exact set-up. | 11:43 |
| utu8o | how much hdd space does lubuntu need | 11:51 |
| eipi10 | well, one is 32bit, the other 64 | 11:51 |
| eipi10 | bare bones is about 4.5GB for 14.04 | 11:52 |
| eipi10 | LXDE on Debian, huh? | 12:04 |
| bioterror | right after boot into desktop I get 60MB on htop just one urxvt running | 12:05 |
| eipi10 | is that the OS you use most? | 12:06 |
| leszek | bioterror: just open the browser and you will have plenty of ram used :P | 12:41 |
| rainmayyetcome | does the lubuntu running from USB (try without installing) already include the pepper flash player? | 15:29 |
| utu8o | if not you can probably install it while on liveCD/USB | 15:39 |
| rainmayyetcome | ah for some reason cannot even find it in software center | 15:56 |
| rainmayyetcome | lubuntu software center | 15:56 |
| utu8o | btw, what is pepper flash player | 16:01 |
| utu8o | try synaptic manager | 16:01 |
