[01:20] Hi. I am using Lubuntu 14.04 64bits. So, all of a sudden Pcmanfm did not launch, I reset the panel and stuff I could find in the internet and now in the menu I only have a run and logout option, I am in Lubuntu Netbook edition since it is the only DE I could login, not LXDE or Openbox I could login, How do I reset all Lubuntu? [03:12] Any of y'all know the difference between Lubuntu and Peppermint? Is it just pre-installed programs? === Caerus|Away is now known as Caerus [05:11] I am using Lubuntu 14.04 64bits. I have installed the amdgpu-pro_16.15.2-277429 driver and Vulkan, rebooted but I do not know how to access a GUI to change my monitor resolution [05:11] hello everyone. [05:38] anyone? === Caerus is now known as Caerus|Away [15:07] how lubuntu 16.04 works? is it better to install it now or to wait some time? [18:46] is there any method to change wallpapers in lubuntu-lxqt independent of changing the whole theme? [18:47] or are the lxqt theme and the wallpaper tied together for now? [20:52] hi [21:52] hello! i use a latin american keyboard layout, with Ñ key included, which is working. since upgrading to 16.04, the key beside the letter P, which allows for typing accented vowels, does not work. pressing it + a vowel doesn't return á, é, í, ó or ú, just the vowel itself. how can i re-enable the dead key? there is no "latin american, with dead keys" option in my keyboard settings. apologies for such a noob question [22:13] stairsandflowers: a mi me funciona [22:14] (se permite el español en este channel?) and how do you set it up? [22:14] ááááá [22:14] sí funciona [22:15] es que justo ahora estoy en ubuntu [22:15] pero en la instalacion le di [22:15] spanish latin america [22:15] so did i. [22:15] n osera tu tecla que no sirve [22:15] que pasa si la aprietas [22:15] funciona si uso otro layout. (us, international with dead keys) [22:16] que raro [22:16] a mi me va bien [22:16] no ocurre nada. si luego presiono una vocal aparece sin acento. [22:16] sep. antes funcionaba bien. [22:16] y no he cambiado nada. [22:16] Pero sí he usado lubuntu [22:17] mi setup esta en spanish, latin american ya. [22:18] No se me ocurre nada [22:18] me haria falta la opcion spanish latam with dead keys. si la us funciona, deberia haber una para latam quizas [22:18] Mas que ve a teclado [22:18] no lo se [22:18] Fijate que sea la primera opción [22:18] Y default [22:18] asi es, es la primera y es defaut [22:18] default [22:20] prueba el live cd [22:20] a ver sí ahí funciona [22:20] que algo no se haya instalado [22:20] com los idiomas [22:20] las actualizaciones [22:21] hm, esta todo actualizado [22:21] el idioma al menos [22:21] ya lo revise antes. [22:29] no se si me he perdido de algo, mi firefox se colgo [22:32] que raro jaja [22:32] No [22:33] Nada, funciona bien, está raro que a ti no. [22:34] si, lo se [22:34] muy rarp [22:34] raro [22:35] ademas, soy bastante nueva en lo que es lubuntu. tampoco es que conozco ajustes avanzados con los que experimentar. [23:08] helllllooooo [23:08] ugh, i need some help to sway me back to lubuntu :s [23:09] i thought i would try mint, and i'm not liking the cinammon or xcfe and feeling like i should jsut re-do it with lubuntu [23:11] reinstall [23:11] you think so? :D [23:11] i miss the days of old with fvwm, mwm, etc on sun sparcs [23:12] also [23:12] is it just me, or is firefox jsut a steaming pile? [23:12] i'm 41yrs old and finally bought my own computer (always had work computers) [23:13] and got a 6th gen core i5, 8gb ram, 2 x 1TB HDD and 1 512gb SSD [23:13] asus, for $450 [23:13] that's just great [23:13] lol [23:13] lubuntu will fly there [23:13] i normally use chrome [23:13] but i loaded up firefox [23:14] and just go to some regular website like stupid cnn.com and firefox is back to it's usualy tricks of taking up 110% cpu time [23:14] and i feel like i'm on my old shitty laptop [23:14] :/ [23:14] I have never used firefox [23:14] so no idea [23:14] I use chrome as well [23:15] but yeah, thinking of just going back to lubuntu, i have tried mint for the last couple days once i got past u?efi boot issues [23:15] just disable safe boot [23:15] should not affect uefi I think. [23:15] Right now I'm using Ubuntu. [23:16] my main issue was never-ending pcieport error messages [23:16] Wanted to try 16.04 LTS Ubuntu. [23:16] i spent many hours trying to figure it out, googling, on chat etc [23:16] nobody could help [23:16] about what [23:16] lemme get a paste of the error [23:17] pcieport 0000:00:1c:6: PCIe Bus Error: severity=Corrected, type=Physical Layer, id=00e6(Receiver ID) [23:17] but where and why you get that [23:17] erors like that, neverending, i couldn't boot [23:17] i supressed them with adding in boot command option "pci=nomsi" [23:17] cannot you disable it on bios' [23:18] but it turned out there was a bios/efi option for "pci-express power management" or something like that, which i disabled [23:18] and that got rid of it [23:18] Good [23:18] but all my googling, chatting, nobody came up with solution [23:18] but finally you got it working. [23:18] That's good. [23:18] but anyways, yes, i got it working [23:18] Anyway with that laptop, you can use any distro you want. [23:18] but thinking i want to go back to lubuntu [23:19] oh, my asus is a desktop [23:19] can't stand laptops, and have no need for one - i still have an old i3 laptop [23:19] oh good [23:19] :) [23:19] I can't use a desktop. [23:19] well, i do need a laptop, but jsut for car stuff [23:19] Can't live without my lap. [23:20] i'm a VW guy, and i need something to plug into the car to talk to the ecu [23:20] but for the house, i just want a nice simple fast desktop that i can use to play media and all my other computing needs [23:21] lubuntu should work. [23:21] all desktops are gonna be fast in that hardware. [23:21] thats what i was using for the last couple years [23:21] for work and then personal [23:22] I use Ubuntu 16.04 in a i5 3gen 8Gb RAM 250HD [23:22] n-iCe: except when using firefox lol [23:22] And is extremadly fast [23:22] pod_: let me open firefox to check [23:22] hold on [23:22] do it [23:22] don't think is that way [23:22] load up firefox [23:22] go to cnn.com [23:22] then run top [23:22] ok right now I am using 3.2GB RAM [23:23] every linux i've used over the years, firefox has always been a raging bloat [23:23] even this fresh install of mint 17.3 [23:23] loading cnn [23:23] and RAM went to 3.5GB [23:23] don't forget to read all the important news ! [23:23] 300MB [23:23] is not that much [23:23] what about cpu usage? [23:24] does not go up than 9% [23:24] not any of my 4 proccesors [23:24] weird [23:24] here i am now: [23:24] And I have chrome with 4 tabs, facebook, whatsapp yahoo and google translate [23:24] 1835 gl 20 0 1689820 186744 85392 S 3.3 2.3 2:20.17 cinnamon 1272 root 20 0 1359460 245724 227864 S 2.3 3.0 1:22.45 Xorg [23:24] crappy paste [23:24] but thats without firefox [23:25] checked [23:25] got some cinammon and xorg [23:25] firefox just using 330MB [23:25] i will start firefox [23:25] chrome with the tabs [23:25] is using almost 2GB [23:25] Dammit [23:25] lol [23:25] never checked that before [23:25] haha [23:26] 7055 gl 20 0 1419636 432676 91316 S 73.2 5.4 0:37.37 firefox [23:26] 7134 gl 20 0 974280 244652 56784 R 57.2 3.0 0:15.14 plugin-con+ [23:26] load up firefox, go to cnn, click on a link [23:26] and now my computer feels like a turd [23:26] weird [23:27] firefox taking 73% cpu, plugin-container taking 57% [23:27] and slow as molasses [23:27] so dumb [23:27] well, download lubuntu [23:27] anyways... i haven't used firefox in ages, but mint came with firefox [23:27] so i was using it for a bit until i got my bearings [23:28] my linux install-fu is a bit rusty [23:28] but if i install lubuntu over what my current system [23:28] would be great [23:28] it won't delete what i've got im my /home/gl diretory right? [23:28] gl is my initals [23:29] *initials [23:29] Well youc an chose not to do it [23:29] if you installed in a different partition [23:29] if now, will be deleted [23:29] not* [23:29] ugh no i didn't [23:29] use the live cd, create a partition [23:29] and move all there [23:29] i can do that [23:29] if you don't have a usb or a external hard disk [23:30] i have 2 1TB drives [23:30] then don't see the problem :p [23:30] i only installed the linux on the 512gb SSD [23:30] i wanted my two regular HDDs to just be like extra disks [23:32] lxde doesn't have transparency in windows.. iirc [23:33] that was the fanciest feature i kinda liked [23:34] lxde is really basic [23:34] that's why is so fast [23:34] try ubuntu mate instead [23:34] or xubuntu if you want fancy stuff [23:34] i like basic [23:35] i have an '82 rabbit i restored, but put a turbo-diesel engine in it [23:35] still basic. love it [23:37] lubuntu has a newer kernel than mint? [23:40] I don't use mint [23:40] 4.4.0-22 is what lubuntu use [23:40] Mint should use the same, since it is Ubuntu based. [23:44] System: Host: gl Kernel: 3.19.0-32-generic x86_64 (64 bit) [23:44] ?? [23:44] thats what inxi -S gives me [23:45] uname -r [23:46] i tried that [23:46] also. gives me the same 3.19 [23:46] that's old [23:46] thats nuts [23:47] why would the newest version of mint, which is supposedly super popular use such an old kernel? [23:47] ughhh [23:47] do, sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade [23:47] :) [23:47] oh yeah, i could do that... [23:48] i didn't even think of that [23:48] i jsut figured, the spankin newest version of mint which i downloaded 2 days ago should have a newer kernel than that [23:50] bbiaf... lubuntu downloading slow
