[02:17] <stiv2k> can i run lubuntu on an old laptop with only 128 MB ram?
[02:19] <Unit193> Nope.
[02:19] <stiv2k> why not
[02:20] <stiv2k> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Lubuntu/Documentation/MinimalInstall
[02:45] <tsimonq2> stiv2k: our minimum is 256 MB of RAM I believe
[02:47] <Unit193> Well, if you want to do anything more than load the interface, I'd say more than that.
[02:58] <stiv2k> tsimonq2: Unit193:
[02:58] <stiv2k> is that why im getting this error: http://stiv2k.info/img/unsorted/20160805_225732.jpg
[02:58] <stiv2k> or is that unrelated
[02:59] <tsimonq2> yeah that seems related
[03:00] <stiv2k> dang
[03:00] <stiv2k> what should i do with this thing?
[05:07] <ac2> hey anyone around that has run into any issues connecting wifi through virtualbox?
[05:07] <ac2> or having issues getting thier wifi usb adapter detected
[05:08] <lynorian> ac2 when I used virtualbox I connected through the hosts wifi and used that
[05:09] <lynorian> so you are trying to give the guest its own usb and use the drivers on the guest to connect to the internet
[05:09] <ac2> lynorian: I was hoping to connect not through my bridged adpater and testout another local hostspot
[05:09] <lynorian> ac2, have you installed guest additions and what is the host and what is the guest
[05:10] <ac2> lynorian: I was hoping to have it on a separate network of the host
[05:11] <lynorian> no what os is host and what os is guest
[05:11] <ac2> the lubunutu is the guest and host is windows, guest additons have been installed as well has usb filter placed in the virtualbox device settings
[05:12] <lynorian> Do you know the kind of chipset of the usb adapter
[05:13] <lynorian> could still be a lubuntu driver problem
[05:14] <ac2> its a tp-link TL-WN722N, pretty certain it has the right chipset
[05:21] <ac2> might have to keep looking into this, although everything appears to be configured right
[05:21] <ac2> Some searches included missing nm-applet in the 14.04 build versions
[07:42] <Atomic_t5Zba> hey
[07:43] <Atomic_t5Zba> irc for support. ....good luck lubuntu
[16:12] <altctrldel> so. Fresh install of 16.04, on an intel celeron m 520 with an intel 950 GMA chipset
[16:13] <altctrldel> Blank screen after reboot. Try to drop to console with ctrl+alt+F1, login prompt for maybe 2 seconds then goes straight back to blank screen
[16:13] <altctrldel> if it even stays for 2 seconds. usually doesnt
[16:13] <altctrldel> anybody have any ideas?
[16:26] <sodomy> altctrldel: I've got a similar problem with an intel based graphics card.  From what i've read, it's something to do with the intel xorg driver causing instability.
[16:27] <sodomy> altctrldel: There's a "known issue" for intel based graphics listed on the lubuntu site
[16:29] <walter___> hi, can I ask questions about lxle here too?
[16:34] <altctrldel> sodomy: I'll go look for the bug report. Seems to be LXDE related cause other ubuntu based distros dont have this problem, with the same kernel
[16:34] <altctrldel> Any way I can at least drop in to a console and find out?
[16:38] <altctrldel> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/lubuntu-meta/+bug/1575460 found it
[16:58] <altctrldel> sodomy: apparently the fix has been pushed to the updates repo. going to try re-installing with the download updates option checked
[16:58] <altctrldel> I'll let you know how it goes
[17:31] <altctrldel> no dice
[17:53] <altctrldel> used the solution in https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/lubuntu-meta/+bug/1575460/comments/5
[17:53] <altctrldel> Worked. albeit a pain in the ass. you have to type your password in like 1 or 2 chars at a time.
[17:53] <altctrldel> hope your pw is short. mine isn't.
[17:53] <altctrldel> sodomy ^
[19:43] <sodomy> altctrldel: I'll take a look at that, thanks :)
[19:44] <sodomy> altctrldel: my issues aren't exactly the same as yours, but i'm having issues with the intel chipset in the mac it runs on.
[22:00] <ac2> hey, anyone who might be able to help troubleshoot some display issues occurring in virtualbox enviorment?
[23:30] <knoxyca> I've run into this bug: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-intel/+bug/1568604 but I'm not entirely sure ohw to read the bugs page. It looks to me like a fix has been released, but I'm not seeing any updates available for my system.
