| newk_ | hi, i'm having trouble getting a fully dark theme in lubuntu 14.04. some parts remain having a white background even tho i changed gtk and qt themes to dark with light text themes | 04:00 |
|---|---|---|
| newk_ | anyone can help me with that? | 04:01 |
| Riccardo | Hi guys, can you help me please? My printer HP Laserjet P1102 is not recognised by Lubuntu. What can I do?? I have read many guides but I'm lost... | 11:10 |
| a-master | hello | 18:05 |
| a-master | The next LTS Lubuntu should be released before June? | 18:06 |
| redwolf | a-master, we expect that release on 21 April 2016 | 18:07 |
| a-master | Nice :) | 18:08 |
| a-master | So it should be 16.04 ? | 18:08 |
| redwolf | yup | 18:08 |
| a-master | version | 18:08 |
| a-master | good! | 18:08 |
| redwolf | :) | 18:08 |
| a-master | The current LTS is supported until 2019 and the next one extends the period up to 2020s ? | 18:16 |
| redwolf | Lubuntu 16.04 will bu supported for 3 years, until April 2019 | 18:17 |
| redwolf | *will be :D | 18:18 |
| a-master | Aaah okey | 18:19 |
| a-master | I saw the chart somewhere on the website saying the same thing. I just wanted to make sure :) | 18:19 |
| redwolf | here's the "official" information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Lubuntu/GetLubuntu/LTS | 18:20 |
| redwolf | as you can see, our really true first LTS will be 16.04 | 18:20 |
| redwolf | 14.04 was LTS only for core purposes (as Ubuntu was) but not the desktop | 18:21 |
| a-master | right | 18:21 |
| redwolf | :) | 18:22 |
| a-master | Oh yes that's the chart I was referring to | 18:22 |
| redwolf | well, it's fine. | 18:22 |
| redwolf | from 2016 to 2019 | 18:23 |
| a-master | My parents have been more than happy with 14.04 LTS. They were more than surprised how well their former Windows 7 laptop got useful after reinstall :) | 18:27 |
| redwolf | and faster, I guess! :) | 18:27 |
| a-master | Yeah a hell lot of faster | 18:28 |
| redwolf | good boy! :D | 18:28 |
| a-master | The only problem seem to have is to connect phones via Bluetooth in order to transfer pictures | 18:29 |
| a-master | Maybe I will check that one day | 18:29 |
| redwolf | there's a bluetooth connect utility in the Lubuntu Software Center, related to Gnome, that you could use | 18:30 |
| redwolf | or simply install BlueMan. it's a great BT handler | 18:30 |
| a-master | ok | 18:31 |
| a-master | I don't trust upgrades. I will backup everything important and make a clean install once the 16.40 LTS is out :) | 18:34 |
| redwolf | yes, we always recommend backing up your systems before installing a major update | 18:35 |
| redwolf | I do a backup myself every week | 18:35 |
| a-master | You make snapshots every week? | 18:36 |
| redwolf | an incremental backup with grsync | 18:36 |
| a-master | Ok | 18:37 |
| redwolf | and I store everything in an external disk. just in case! :D | 18:37 |
| a-master | Yeah it's always a good idea to backup the most important things to external medias | 18:38 |
| redwolf | and to the cloud too | 18:38 |
| a-master | sure | 18:39 |
| calimero_82 | hi guys | 22:39 |
| calimero_82 | there are many differences between lubu 14.04 and 15.10? thanks | 22:40 |
| redwolf | calimero_82, there're several | 22:41 |
| redwolf | these are the release notes on 14.04: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/TrustyTahr/ReleaseNotes/Lubuntu | 22:41 |
| redwolf | and these for 15.10: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WilyWerewolf/ReleaseNotes/Lubuntu | 22:41 |
| calimero_82 | thanks redwolf | 22:42 |
| redwolf | you're welcome, calimero_82 :) | 22:43 |
| redwolf | the biggest difference is the language system, and of course the kernel | 22:43 |
| calimero_82 | if you were to recommend to a new one, which would you recommend? thank you | 22:43 |
| calimero_82 | i've lubu 15.10 | 22:44 |
| redwolf | I'm with 15.10 and it's pretty stable | 22:44 |
| redwolf | also, having a new kernel means your devices have a better support | 22:44 |
| redwolf | and we fixed lots of bugs | 22:45 |
| redwolf | of course, 14.04.2 is still being fixed, as long as you install your upgrades | 22:45 |
| calimero_82 | isn't arrived in 14.04.3 | 22:46 |
| calimero_82 | ? | 22:46 |
| redwolf | yes, sorry. that's the latest one | 22:48 |
| redwolf | http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/lubuntu/releases/14.04/release/ | 22:48 |
| calimero_82 | in april will be 16.04, You should then update it or wait to see how will be the 16:04? | 22:51 |
| calimero_82 | i'll install it maybe in may, so i can see if there are bugs in that month, it's a good idea? | 23:04 |
| redwolf | yes, it's a good idea :) | 23:06 |
| redwolf | better use stable systems. anyway, 16.04 will be an LTS, so it will have a better support | 23:06 |
| calimero_82 | bye | 23:45 |
