| phillw | tsimonq2: did you test lxqt? | 22:11 |
|---|---|---|
| wxl | phillw: i did in the vm and all was well, but i didn't do netboot yet | 22:12 |
| phillw | was that adding to lubuntu xenial that worked? | 22:12 |
| wxl | yeah | 22:13 |
| wxl | there's obviously something i must be missing for netboot | 22:13 |
| phillw | that's good, it was failing | 22:13 |
| wxl | although there were problems with images recently in general (across the board) | 22:13 |
| wxl | so that might have been it too | 22:13 |
| wxl | my image is from the 14th fwiw | 22:13 |
| phillw | netboot is independent of ubuntu builds. | 22:13 |
| phillw | it comes from debian and they basically bolt a bit of ubuntu onto it :D | 22:14 |
| wxl | oh? ok. i'll get a netboot image and see what i can figure out | 22:14 |
| wxl | unless tsimonq2 wants to :) | 22:14 |
| wxl | but he's still scared of lxqt i think heheeh | 22:14 |
| phillw | wxl: tsimonq2 I have a netboot VM that bitched out when adding lxqt to it, so it still a virgin netboot VM | 22:15 |
| wxl | !language | phillw | 22:15 |
| wxl | XD | 22:15 |
| ubot93 | phillw: The main Ubuntu channels require that you speak in calm, polite English. For other languages, please visit https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRC/ChannelList | 22:15 |
| phillw | ooh, that is impolite? Sorry. | 22:16 |
| wxl | heheheh i'm kidding phillw don't be a grumpy pants :) | 22:16 |
| phillw | And I chose that word carefully owing to age of other person on here :P | 22:16 |
| wxl | hehehe | 22:17 |
| wxl | admittedly i think that's one of those words that's ok on television, but i haven't seen it pop up in any recent episodes of my little pony XDXD | 22:17 |
| tsimonq2 | phillw: Helen did :P | 22:21 |
| tsimonq2 | wxl: I already did it with a netboot image | 22:22 |
| tsimonq2 | wxl: but I hadd to install lightdm and openbox | 22:22 |
| tsimonq2 | wxl: so add those two to the list | 22:22 |
| phillw | wxl: there is a shed load of updates on the netboot image from last time it failed... | 22:24 |
| phillw | tsimonq2: you can also use SDDM if openbox 'has issues' | 22:25 |
| tsimonq2 | phillw: but lightdm works fine | 22:27 |
| phillw | tsimonq2: just for if it decides to not want to 'play nicely' | 22:28 |
| tsimonq2 | phillw: which it hasn't :P | 22:28 |
| phillw | let me just go find my instructions..... tsimonq2 now you know why there are lots of wiki pages for lubuntu stuff... I write them so I have reference to go back to :) | 22:32 |
| phillw | wxl: lxqt-metapackage is happy again, the disturbance in the force has been resolved. | 22:34 |
| wxl | !info openbox-qt xenial | 22:35 |
| * wxl kicks ubot93 | 22:35 | |
| ubot93 | Package openbox-qt does not exist in xenial | 22:36 |
| wxl | argh | 22:36 |
| tsimonq2 | wxl: wait, let me fire up lububot XD | 22:36 |
| wxl | !info obconf-qt xenial | 22:36 |
| ubot93 | obconf-qt (source: obconf-qt): Openbox configuration with a Qt interface. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.9.0+20150822-1 (xenial), package size 73 kB, installed size 373 kB | 22:36 |
| wxl | there it is | 22:36 |
| wxl | is openbox gtk free then? | 22:38 |
| phillw | wxl: let me check to see if obconf-qt is usable yet. I was told it was not and to use the obfconf (gtk) one | 22:38 |
| wxl | is there any reason to go with sddm over lightdm? | 22:39 |
| tsimonq2 | nope :P | 22:39 |
| phillw | wxl: nope, it's just a suggestion for when they break lightdm :) | 22:40 |
| wxl | hahahahah k phillw | 22:40 |
| Unit193 | wxl: Is there a Qt greeter? | 22:40 |
| phillw | wxl: it's on the topic for #lxde :) | 22:40 |
| wxl | Unit193: i guess that's more of a question for rafael. doubt it. | 22:41 |
| Unit193 | !info lightdm-kde-greeter | 22:41 |
| Unit193 | That's about it. | 22:41 |
| ubot93 | lightdm-kde-greeter (source: lightdm-kde): LightDM KDE greeter. In component universe, is extra. Version 0.3.2.2-1ubuntu1 (xenial), package size 1085 kB, installed size 2350 kB | 22:41 |
| phillw | Unit193: (22:46:43) phillw: agaida: do you know if there is a qt-greeter yet, or do we still need lightdm-kde-greeter ? | 22:47 |
| phillw | (22:47:03) agaida: use sddm | 22:47 |
| phillw | (22:47:16) agaida: http://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/pkg-lxqt/lxqt-metapackages.git/tree/debian/control | 22:47 |
| wxl | yeah well that's kind of a non-answer XD | 22:48 |
| phillw | wxl: well.... (22:47:57) agaida: and no - the lightdm greeter for lxqt is deprecated and will never ever appear in debian | 22:48 |
| wxl | there is that | 22:48 |
| wxl | perhaps good to ask redwolf about? | 22:48 |
| phillw | lightdm is now dead, so we better get used to its replacement :) | 22:48 |
| wxl | wait, is ubuntu getting rid of lightdm? | 22:49 |
| phillw | wxl: not sure, but it seems Qt are? | 22:49 |
| wxl | definitely true with kubuntu | 22:50 |
| wxl | they went sddm | 22:50 |
| phillw | well, that does point to that lightdm-kde-greeter is not going to be a choice for LXQt :) | 22:51 |
| Unit193 | lightdm is in no way dead. | 22:51 |
| phillw | Unit193: it is not, but we are discussing what is happening for LXQt :) | 22:51 |
| wxl | so we should probably chaneg the netboot instructions to include sddm then with a note that we'll likely make that change too | 22:52 |
| phillw | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Lubuntu/LXQt#Installing_LXQt_on_fresh_system does not mention lightdm | 22:55 |
| tsimonq2 | wxl: or lightdm :P | 22:55 |
| phillw | I'm going to edit it to use obconf-qt | 22:55 |
