[00:26] 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] 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] Ascavasaion, check with this setxkbmap -print === Ascavasaion_ is now known as Ascavasaion [15:00] damascene: What exactly does that tell me? [15:00] the current keymap [15:03] Can I cut and paste it here? Seeing as it is quiet? [15:03] Or should I do a pastebin rather? [15:03] pastepin, like fpaste.org maybe ☺ [15:04] did you find uk or us there? [15:05] http://pastebin.com/7btu224Z [15:05] us+gb [15:06] you can remove the gb by setxkbmap "us" [15:06] you might want to add that to your ~/.bashrc [15:07] Perfect! [15:07] thank you so so much [15:07] Oh [15:08] this ought to be fun then hehehe [15:08] 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] I wonder what happened to make to go all wonky like this in the first place. [15:09] You can wait her for more advance users to find answers [15:10] 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] I think so, yes [15:11] I've similar one in my file but for multiple languages [15:11] multiple layouts [15:11] I just needthe keyboard changed... language for spellcheck, etc I need is UK English [15:12] and that command makes everything work perfectly. [15:13] going to reboot and check. [15:14] Good monring all. [15:14] good morning, james1138 \o/ [15:14] "morning"... sorry [15:19] damascene: It works perfectly as is. No need for the "more advanced users". Much appreciated. [15:19] yw [15:21] South Africa here... hence the US keyboard, and UK English. [15:22] yeah, diverse culture already there ☺ [15:23] 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] installing windows print drivers is not a good idea. Linux can't use those [15:25] Why aren't you using CUPS? [15:25] 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] I'm sure there's a legal Lexmark driver for Linux in their website [15:28] Is CUPS not what's used anymore? [15:29] I haven't printed anything in about 20 years [15:29] yes, CUPS is just the server that connects the PPDs for printing [15:29] Ah [15:29] every printer "driver" is a collection of PPD instructions [15:29] It's been a while indeed [15:30] but brands like HP, Canon, etc. have prepared Linux packages [15:30] It's about time [15:30] for example, the hplip tool can configure EVERY hp printer with ease, even via wifi, for scanning, faxing and printing. [15:31] just a CUPS front-end. it's, so, the only way to install printers in *buntu [15:40] Sorry all. Stepped away. But I am back and finished reading reply about Lexmark [15:41] and? went fine? [15:41] Anyone know of a source/website for Lexmark PPD? [15:42] have you tried the Printers applet? [15:42] how is the printer connected? [15:43] Printer is on local/home network Redwolf [15:43] what says the Lubuntu printer installer? [15:44] if the normal setup fails, read this: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HardwareSupportComponentsPrinters/LexmarkPrinters [15:47] Just PDF on printer [16:00] james1138, you should see the connected printer. expand this: http://i19.servimg.com/u/f19/12/97/34/48/printe10.jpg [16:00] if not, use that link === mpmctoo is now known as mpmc === mpmc is now known as mpmctoo === Noskcaj_ is now known as Noskcaj
