leszekkyle69649: just ask a concrete question and you'll see09:17
kyle69649i am stuck in cmd09:17
kyle69649screen askes for login then password and it looks like ms cmd screen09:18
leszekkyle69649: You are able to login via the tty terminal and see a command line instead of the GUI ?09:18
kyle69649how09:18
kyle69649yes09:18
kyle69649yes09:19
leszekkyle69649: the live system worked fine for you ?09:19
kyle69649that was what came up when i started the computer09:19
kyle69649no i did a usb install09:19
leszekyou did a usb install from the live system or the alternate text installer ?09:19
Naeilwhat version of Lubuntu you are running kyle6964909:20
kyle69649i did that and got through that then said had to resart09:20
kyle69649so i did. now im here09:20
leszekkyle69649: so in general the graphics card is recognized. Did you try restarting already (entering the command sudo reboot)09:20
kyle69649im running the 14.00 something09:20
leszek14.04 seems pretty old09:20
leszekthe current version is 16.0409:20
kyle69649ill try restart again09:20
Naeilit still supported the 14.04 no problem with that. Try to restart and let us know if you still facing the same problem.09:21
kyle69649ok sys is rebooting09:21
leszekNaeil: if it is 14.04 and not 14.1009:21
kyle69649ill let you know in a second09:22
kyle69649yes, is 14.04.509:22
leszekok that is an LTS version so it is still supported until 2019 at max09:22
kyle69649and still is prompting via a cmd screen09:23
leszekkyle69649: try login again and executing: sudo service restart lightdm09:24
Naeil^09:24
leszekhopefully that brings you to the graphical login manager09:24
kyle69649ok im logged in and trying09:24
kyle69649wait one09:25
kyle69649is that exactly what to input into the line? i just tried that and gotunrecognized service09:27
Naeildpkg -l | grep lightdm09:28
Naeilpaste your output to paste.ubuntu.com09:28
kyle69649im using side by side. im talking here via a windows 10, other pc is next to me. how can i paste.. other than copy and input09:31
Naeilah okay just tell me what you see then09:31
LuMintNaeil: would be easier with | gist-paste09:32
kyle69649when i typed inthe last cmd (grep lightdm) it responded with like a free type  thing and there was no more IO it was just type09:34
kyle69649i restarted again and am back at login09:34
kyle69649i will type in my login09:35
LuMintfree type thing? what's that?09:35
NaeilI am sorry I don't follow!09:35
LuMintkyle69649: you should for the command to finish. It may take up to 2 minutes if your hardware is old09:35
kyle69649i could type and there was just it. no output other than that09:35
LuMint^ld^ld wait09:35
LuMintkyle69649: dpkg -l | grep lightdm | gist-paste09:36
LuMintkyle69649: wait till it gives you a link.09:36
NaeilLuMint, if I am not mistaken he can't connect :)09:36
kyle69649im running a net book. dell latitude 211009:37
LuMintkyle69649: do you have internet connection?09:37
kyle69649its a light work laptop i picked up at auction09:37
LuMinti'm not familiar with its specs.09:38
kyle69649yes via wifi. should i use hardline for the moment?09:38
LuMintsays nothing to me really. apart from you the fact you probably need to wait up to 2 minutes09:38
LuMint^you09:38
LuMintkyle69649: did you say dpkg -l | grep lightdm | gist-paste and wait for several minutes?09:38
kyle69649well by our standard very low powered its dell and stock09:39
kyle69649i will try. wait one09:39
LuMintactually, it shouldn't be like this... does dpkg -l work?09:41
kyle69649ya i got error on last, ill try that , wait one09:42
kyle69649i tried dpkg SPACE -109:43
kyle69649dpkg-109:43
kyle69649nothing on both09:43
kyle69649the first one was unknown option -109:44
LuMintare you sure you are logged in?09:44
LuMintwhat do you mean -109:45

LuMintLima09:45
kyle69649...oh09:45
kyle69649l09:45
kyle69649ok09:45
kyle69649trying..09:45
LuMintit stands for list...09:45
LuMintyou are basically telling the package manager to list all packages...09:46
kyle69649holy FBALLS09:46
kyle69649got long list09:46
LuMintkyle69649: just like in Matrix, huh?09:46
kyle69649ya09:46
LuMintnow you're a h4x0r09:46
LuMintdpkg -l | grep lightdm | gist-paste09:46
kyle69649trying, wait one..09:47
kyle69649program gist-paste is not intalled.......blah blah09:48
LuMintnever mind gist paste, dpkg -l | grep lightdm09:48
kyle69649ok09:49
kyle69649ok sofar i have some red lettering and other09:51
kyle69649its a list of...09:51
kyle69649looks like files09:52
kyle69649liblightdm-gobject-1-0                                                        1.10.6-Oubuntu1                                           i386                   LightDM Gobject client library09:54
kyle69649that was suposed to be a full line across09:55
kyle69649but the list continues with a few other things and then is now waiting for another cmd09:55
kyle69649are you still here?09:57
kyle69649hello?10:01
leszekkyle69649: its important that lightdm is listed as installed10:03
leszekor lightdm-gtk10:03
kyle69649lightdm comes up with only root can run light display manager. to run as regular user for testing run with the -- test-mode flag.10:06
kyle69649lightdm-gtk could not be found (cmd)10:06
LuMintkyle69649: try starx10:07
LuMintkyle69649: that should start the X server10:07
LuMintkyle69649: it's basically what lightdm should do, but you can do it manually just as well.10:08
kyle69649tried starx, got nothing. tried startx and got...10:09
kyle69649xauthority does not exist10:10
kyle69649a listing of the xserver data10:10
LuMintNaeil: I've no idea here10:10
LuMintkyle69649: try xorg-reconfigure10:11
leszekkyle69649: and the sudo service lightdm restart does not bring up the graphical login manager ?10:11
LuMintgoogle the command and try it.10:11
kyle69649 ya i think i may just try downloading the new os.10:11
leszeksudo service lightdm restart10:11
kyle69649ill try xorg10:11
kyle69649wait one10:11
leszekthat won't work or bring anything as xorg won't start a window manager/desktop10:11
kyle69649not what i meant. i abreviated. i appoligise10:12
kyle69649but i tried the cmd and didnt work.10:13
kyle69649im trying the second10:13
LuMintleszek: why wouldn't it?10:14
kyle69649ok so i got    unknown instance when i typed in the sudo service lightdm restart10:16
kyle69649and now i got nothin.. i have blinking cursor that wont type.. thanks gents, im going to try back at square one and install 16 ver.10:17
kyle69649it will take a while but ill look for ya if i get somewhere10:18
LuMintkyle69649: yeah, it should be like that. I'm pretty positive it's not a driver issue.10:18
LuMint*shouldnt10:18
Naeilback10:18
Naeilkyle69649, I think you format and install Lubuntu another time will be a good chance to work10:19
NaeilFollow a good tutorial to install it10:19
leszekLuMint: Xorg itself launches only the Xserver but does not execute anything so you will get X with the X cursor thats all10:19
leszekkyle69649: before wiping try looking into /var/log/Xorg.0.log and see if there is any line starting with E: which means error10:20
leszekmaybe something useful there that explains why it won't start10:20
LuMintleszek: so basically if Xserver's configs are screwed, no WM/DE will be hooked?10:20
LuMintNaeil: leszek i think xorg-reconfigure might work10:21
leszekLuMint: even if they aren't screwed thats what Xorg does only. Its not there for loading WMs/DEs10:21
leszekIts like pulseaudio. It of itself cannot play music. It is just a music server. And so is Xorg10:22
LuMintwhat launches DEs and WMs, then?10:25
LuMintwhy is it when i startx, DE launches as well?10:25
LuMintif it's not the responsibility of xorg10:25
kyle69649what is de10:25
kyle69649what is wm10:26
kyle69649forgive my ignorance, i dont know computing syntax or jargon like you do. i barely learned ruby10:28
LuMintdesktop environment10:30
LuMintwindows manager10:30
kyle69649ok10:30
kyle69649thank you10:30
LuMintsomething win explorer is responsive for10:30
LuMintdesktop environment is a set of programs10:30
LuMintkyle69649: lxde is a desktop environment10:31
LuMintkyle69649: it includes various software like text editor, browser etc.10:31
kyle69649is the use of 21st century socialisms inapropriate in this environment ie(lol)10:31
LuMintkyle69649: it also includes the menu at the bottom of your page10:31
kyle69649ah10:31
LuMintthis component is called lxpanel10:32
LuMintyou can disable it if you do't like it and still have the rest of your DE10:32
kyle69649i saw ldxe and was able to note that.10:32
LuMintopenbox only provides minimal experience which is pretty enough if you ask me.10:32
kyle69649lxde10:32
LuMintfor a purely openbox system you can try searching in youtube for crunchbang reviews10:33
LuMintor bunsenlabs10:33
LuMintopenbox is a WM10:33
kyle69649ill do that10:33
LuMintit draws windows basically. and handles it.10:33
LuMintresizes etc.10:33
LuMintit's also capable of autostarting stuff you want10:34
leszekLuMint: startx is a script that executes the .xinitrc script which starts the DE/WM10:34
LuMintso you can make it into a DE10:34
LuMintleszek: thanks10:34
kyle69649so before starting from scratch, i tooled around and got the syntax right and ran the upgrade. im seeing if that solves my problems. simutaneosly, im downloading(on this pc) the lubuntu 16 ver.10:35
kyle69649explain open box?  do you mean that it is easy to grab and install and use?10:37
leszekits the window manager that lxde uses by default. So it is already installed10:38
leszekkyle69649: you can take a look here at what window managers are https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Window_manager10:39
kyle69649it is in the process. i have something like an hour to go. its been going for the passed10 min or so10:40
LuMintkyle69649: i'd recommend using lxde or preconfigured openbox like that in bunsenlabs10:40
kyle69649now it says 30 min10:40
kyle69649so idk10:40
LuMintkyle69649: you'd need to make many things manually to create your own DE based on openbox10:40
kyle69649im reading on internet about openbox10:40
LuMintkyle69649: e.g. for desktop wallpaper management you'd have to manually set up either feh or nitrogen10:41
LuMintkyle69649: lxde does it for you.10:41
kyle69649ah10:41
LuMintbut once you've set up your openbox it's just as good as lxde, and prolly even better for your own needs, because you've made it yourself after all10:41
kyle69649granted. but for a guy like me who has limited working knowlege in programing or even understanding what im looking at, is a open box for me?10:43
LuMintkyle69649: i'd recommend using lxde or preconfigured openbox like that in bunsenlabs10:44
LuMintdecide for yourself.10:44
kyle69649ok10:44
LuMintlxde is built off of openbox10:44
LuMintkyle69649: just find a description what lxde is10:44
dudzhi, I'm currently running ubuntu, but i am thinking to switch to lubuntu. I own an Intel NUC5i7RYH which i have an m.2 as my primary storage, i had a 2.5inch ssd installed which i removed yesterday.10:45
LuMintkyle69649: you can get almost the same experience without lxde but isntalling and configuring things like desktop wallpaper manager yourself.10:45
dudzprior to the 2.5inch ssd i had a mechanical 2.5inch, i took themechanical out becaus eof heat, and now i have taken the ssd out for the same reason10:45
dudzi have also disabled the intel turbo feature from the bios10:46
kyle69649ok.luMint: its saying 15min to go10:47
kyle69649dudz: so the drives just run hot? hove you played with the fan settings? how long before it shuts down?10:53
kyle69649no other componets run hot? ie cpu or gpu?10:53
dudzi think that just the fact that having something in that space instead of air is contributing to holding the heat in the device10:54
dudzit doesn't shutdown but it was running its fan speed up and creating alot of noise10:54
dudzthis act was also happening regually when ever a update comes out10:54
dudzif i install the update or not, the fans would speed up and stay up, and the temperature was sitting near boiling point10:55
kyle69649is this drive large than the stock? did you install extra drive that would take up space thus inhibiting airflow?10:55
dudzalso, when using the microHDMI port, i would experience the graphical glitches that you would see when a video card is overheating, but i don't see this when using the Micro Display port10:55
dudzthe slim of the ssd sized hdd's10:56
dudz9.5mm ?10:56
dudzthe nuc case has a slot for a 2.5inch hdd anyway, it fits in that10:57
kyle69649that one is above me..OH just a dumb question. how old is the hardware? dusty?10:57
kyle69649if your gpu has heatsink and fan, fan may be cloggedor heatsink10:58
dudzi bought it this time last yr, so i've had it 1yr now, most of the time i've owned it, it's been spent switched on,10:58
dudzyeah i need to probably get an air compressor in there, i have not opened the side of the case where the heatsink is since i bought it10:59
dudzhttp://www.intel.com.au/content/www/au/en/nuc/nuc-kit-nuc5i7ryh.html11:00
LuMintdudz: #hardware11:00
dudztrue11:00
kyle69649well it shouldnt have problem but if you around dirt, dust or what ever it has potential to get in there. as far as the hd, i dont know. did you say that you have tried different ones and get the same heat?11:00
LuMinti mean, ask em.11:00
dudzyeah indeed, my text is turning into #hardware11:01
dudzi have accepted that the NUC5i7RYH just doesn't perform well with a 2.5inch hdd installed, even it has a slot to put one, having one will cause the heat to raise.11:02
kyle69649holy cow, thats cool for what it is, its like intel tried to create a type of raspberry pi or ardueno micro pc11:04
dudzi really like it, i wanted a small powerful pc and this does that,11:06
kyle69649thats not a bad thing, i just find it interesting11:06
kyle69649ya that may just be intels fault in thinking that the heat management would work out but if you use sd card or usb memory, that could work and i do know that you can find huge thumb drives128gb about11:12
dudzyeah i'm using 2.5inch usb drives atm for extra storage space, it's just extra desk space, which was the main reason i got a nuc, as i have limited space11:25
