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