[00:26] <OpenSorce> Is there a good working weather plugin for the lxpanel or system tray? The one that comes with it won't let me set a location.
[14:45] <Ascavasaion> Hello there.  I just started my laptop, and it has resorted to UK keyboard when in fact it is a US keyboard.  I rebooted it, and checked in preferences/language support (lubuntu) and it says it is set as US keyboard.  Could someone please advise me.
[14:51] <damascene> Ascavasaion, check with this setxkbmap -print
[15:00] <Ascavasaion> damascene: What exactly does that tell me?
[15:00] <damascene> the current keymap
[15:03] <Ascavasaion> Can I cut and paste it here?  Seeing as it is quiet?
[15:03] <Ascavasaion> Or should I do a pastebin rather?
[15:03] <damascene> pastepin, like fpaste.org maybe ☺
[15:04] <damascene> did you find uk or us there?
[15:05] <Ascavasaion> http://pastebin.com/7btu224Z
[15:05] <Ascavasaion> us+gb
[15:06] <damascene> you can remove the gb by setxkbmap "us"
[15:06] <damascene> you might want to add that to your ~/.bashrc
[15:07] <Ascavasaion> Perfect!
[15:07] <Ascavasaion> thank you so so much
[15:07] <Ascavasaion> Oh
[15:08] <Ascavasaion> this ought to be fun then hehehe
[15:08] <damascene> I think there maybe a better place to set it if you want it system wide and on login, but I'm not sure where, I just use it like this
[15:08] <Ascavasaion> I wonder what happened to make to go all wonky like this in the first place.
[15:09] <damascene> You can wait her for more advance users to find answers
[15:10] <Ascavasaion> So I can just put setxkbmap "us" at the very end of the .bashrc file and when I reboot into this user it will automatically run it?
[15:10] <damascene> I think so, yes
[15:11] <damascene> I've similar one in my file but for multiple languages
[15:11] <damascene> multiple layouts
[15:11] <Ascavasaion> I just needthe keyboard changed... language for spellcheck, etc I need is UK English
[15:12] <Ascavasaion> and that command makes everything work perfectly.
[15:13] <Ascavasaion> going to reboot and check.
[15:14] <james1138> Good monring all.
[15:14] <redwolf> good morning, james1138 \o/
[15:14] <james1138> "morning"... sorry
[15:19] <Ascavasaion> damascene: It works perfectly as is.  No need for the "more advanced users".  Much appreciated.
[15:19] <damascene> yw
[15:21] <Ascavasaion> South Africa here... hence the US keyboard, and UK English.
[15:22] <damascene> yeah, diverse culture already there ☺
[15:23] <james1138> Question related to Lexmark multifunction printers. I have a Lexmark x9575 that works great with windows (winDUH) systems. I try to install the windows xp driver using Wine but each time it gets to the end of the install... it stops and uninstalls. Any ideas or suggestions. I am using Lubuntu 14.04.03 with 4.4 kernal.
[15:25] <redwolf> installing windows print drivers is not a good idea. Linux can't use those
[15:25] <Quantos> Why aren't you using CUPS?
[15:25] <redwolf> you should check the Lexmark support: http://support.lexmark.com/index?pmv=print&page=content&productCode=&segment=SUPPORT&userlocale=EN_UK&id=RE108
[15:26] <redwolf> I'm sure there's a legal Lexmark driver for Linux in their website
[15:28] <Quantos> Is CUPS not what's used anymore?
[15:29] <Quantos> I haven't printed anything in about 20 years
[15:29] <redwolf> yes, CUPS is just the server that connects the PPDs for printing
[15:29] <Quantos> Ah
[15:29] <redwolf> every printer "driver" is a collection of PPD instructions
[15:29] <Quantos> It's been a while indeed
[15:30] <redwolf> but brands like HP, Canon, etc. have prepared Linux packages
[15:30] <Quantos> It's about time
[15:30] <redwolf> for example, the hplip tool can configure EVERY hp printer with ease, even via wifi, for scanning, faxing and printing.
[15:31] <redwolf> just a CUPS front-end. it's, so, the only way to install printers in *buntu
[15:40] <james1138> Sorry all. Stepped away. But I am back and finished reading reply about Lexmark
[15:41] <redwolf> and? went fine?
[15:41] <james1138> Anyone know of a source/website for Lexmark PPD?
[15:42] <redwolf> have you tried the Printers applet?
[15:42] <redwolf> how is the printer connected?
[15:43] <james1138> Printer is on local/home network Redwolf
[15:43] <redwolf> what says the Lubuntu printer installer?
[15:44] <redwolf> if the normal setup fails, read this: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HardwareSupportComponentsPrinters/LexmarkPrinters
[15:47] <james1138> Just PDF on printer
[16:00] <redwolf> james1138, you should see the connected printer. expand this: http://i19.servimg.com/u/f19/12/97/34/48/printe10.jpg
[16:00] <redwolf> if not, use that link
