[04:10] <pantato> hi
[04:11] <pantato> I am trying to get my microphone to work in Counter-Strike. Counter-Strike just uses whatever the default system microphone is. My microphone is on my webcam. My microphone works if i open Audacity and set it to my usb device, but it still does not appear to change the system's default microphone device. Anyone know how to go about this?
[10:34] <bq> how to take screenshot in lubuntu?
[11:17] <LuMint> bq: scrot
[11:17] <LuMint> bq: or sudo apt-get install xfce-screenshoter, or whatever.
[14:02] <pantato> so lxce is openbox based?
[14:03] <pantato> lxde*
[14:05] <wxl> pantato: lxde tends to imply openbox, but it's not a requirement. i use awesome.

[20:00] <Argh_> Good afternoon
[20:01] <tsimonq2> Argh_: having a problem? ;)
[20:01] <tsimonq2> (going off of your nick)
[20:02] <Argh_> I have a merc board and I cannot seem to get the keyboard to work.  I am using Lubuntu 16.04
[20:02] <tsimonq2> LuMint: s/apt-get/apt/
[20:02] <Argh_> do I need to put in that command?
[20:02] <tsimonq2> no, I was pinging someone else there
[20:02] <Argh_> sorry specifically the numberpad
[20:03] <tsimonq2> Argh_: I don't know what a merc board is, could you provide more details?
[20:03] <Argh_> it is a gaming keyboard
[20:03] <tsimonq2> does it work on Ubuntu?
[20:03] <LuMint> tsimonq2: yeah, that's easier. I also tend to use just apt these days
[20:03] <tsimonq2> LuMint: :)
[20:03] <LuMint> tsimonq2: I've been told it's only in mint that apt combines apt-get, apt show, apt-cache etc.
[20:04] <Argh_> I haven't tried ubuntu I jumped to lubuntu because it is an older computer
[20:04] <LuMint> even though I've also been told it was the case in Debian and Ubuntu, too
[20:04] <LuMint> tsimonq2: that's why I recommended apt-get, I wasn't sure
[20:05] <tsimonq2> Argh_: if it's an Ubuntu problem, then it's a driver problem, but if it's Lubuntu, then I should be able to help you
[20:05] <tsimonq2> LuMint: nope, that's not the case
[20:06] <Argh_> ok.  I am unsure where to start
[20:07] <tsimonq2> Argh_: get an Ubuntu Live USB image, reboot into that, and tell me if it works
[20:08] <tsimonq2> I'll be afk for like an hour, be back
[20:08] <Argh_> ok give me a bit
[20:12] <Argh_> How will I get back into this chat?
[20:17] <Jbmorris289> Argh_: What client are you using?
[20:20] <Argh_> not sure what you mean by client. I am using lubuntu 16.04 is that what you mean?
[20:21] <Jbmorris289> You coul just leve it on, unless you have to disconnect(in that case You can do what you did to get here)
[20:21] <Jbmorris289> could*
[20:21] <Jbmorris289> I mean,
[20:22] <Jbmorris289> What program are you using to connect to this chat
[20:23] <Argh_> slimjet
[20:23] <Jbmorris289> Slimjet. ah
[20:24] <Argh_> sorry I wasn't sure if that was directed to me :)
[20:24] <Jbmorris289> Meaning you're using the web irc client
[20:25] <Jbmorris289> Basically just do what you did before to get here again
[20:26] <Jbmorris289> If you're leaving ^
[20:27] <Argh_> ah ok
[20:27] <Argh_> well I was thinking I would use another computer that I have a kvm for and see if that works.
[21:25] <Argh_> it did not work in ubuntu either
[21:26] <Argh_> the numbers above they keys work fine just not the number pad
[21:30] <Argh_> did I loose you jbmorris289?
[21:34] <Guest31473> I have lubuntu 16.04.  I have a merc gaming board and I am unable to get the numberpad on my keyboard to work. I have tried to load ubuntu on another computer using the same keyboard and it doesn't work there either
[21:35] <Guest31473> and I have no idea what I was supposed to do to verify the nickname Argh LOL
[21:37] <Guest31473> I tried running a few commands as suggested for other keyboards where the numberpad wasn't working but it didn't seem to help either
[21:47] <GRRRRRR> I have lubuntu 16.04.  I have a merc gaming board and I am unable to get the number pad on my keyboard to work. I have tried to load ubuntu on another computer using the same keyboard and it doesn't work there either I tried running a few commands as suggested for other keyboards where the number pad wasn't working but it didn't seem to help either
[21:47] <Guest73473> GRRRR

[22:13] <Guest73473> anybody here?
[22:15] <Need> hello?
[22:18] <tsimonq2> Need: hello :)
[22:18] <Need> I was hoping to get some help.
[22:18] <tsimonq2> ask away :)
[22:19] <Need> I have tried a few time to get help but nobody answered :)
[22:20] <Need> my number pad isn't working on my keyboard.  They keyboard is a merc gaming board, I am using lubuntu 16.04.  I tried to install ubuntu on another computer to see if it would work with a standard install, it didn't
[22:20] <Need> I have tried running some other solutions but they have failed, so.  I will take any suggestions :)
[22:22] <tsimonq2> oh you're Argh
[22:22] <tsimonq2> :D
[22:22] <Need> hehe yes :) but it wouldn't let me have my name back
[22:23] <tsimonq2> Need: at this point, if it didn't work in Ubuntu, hop in #ubuntu
[22:23] <Need> do I just type join # ubuntu?
[22:24] <tsimonq2>  /j #ubuntu
[22:24] <Need> thanks :)
[22:24] <tsimonq2> Need: no problem :)
[23:02] <Need> Is there a way to get a more "option" version for the keyboard and mouse menu?
[23:04] <Need> the reason I ask is they gave me a link that gives an option not available in lubuntu http://askubuntu.com/questions/539769/numeric-keys-not-working-after-upgrading-14-04
[23:08] <lynorian> Need yes lxinput the default input changer in lubuntu but you could maybe install another one or there is probably a config file to edit but installing unity control center would allow that but would be really heavy but I do not know of a more lightweight solution
[23:09] <Need> lynorian, did you look at the link by chance?
[23:09] <lynorian> Need I did
[23:10] <lynorian> The screenshot is shown for the unity control center is the graphical program or maybe gnome control center don't know the exact package name
[23:10] <Need> hmm   have you a way I can change that or is putting in unity the way to go?
[23:10] <Need> the setting is what I am after :)
[23:10] <lynorian> need I don't know
[23:11] <Need> shoot hehe
[23:11] <lynorian> this is not my expert area I have a fairly standard us keyboard layouts so don't end up having theese problems
[23:11] <Need> well I guess I can always purge it :) gotcha.
[23:12] <lynorian> I don't know if mate would have a similar setting in the GUI
[23:12] <Need> what is mate?
[23:13] <lynorian> another desktop environment much lighter than unity
[23:14] <Need> forgive me for my ignorance.  So Unity is gui for the desktop?
[23:14] <Need> in moron terms :)
[23:15] <lynorian> for one desktop environment
[23:15] <Need> how would I install mate?
[23:15] <Need> if you have time :)
[23:15] <lynorian> https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Desktop_environment
[23:16] <Need> Sweet!  off to read, may be back later :)
[23:16] <lynorian> although installing everything will end up with a ton of programs in menu
[23:16] <lynorian> you can do it but it does not mean you should
[23:18] <Need> oh
[23:18] <Need> lol
[23:19] <Need> If I may ask, what do you use?
[23:21] <Need> I guess the better questions is what should I use.  Let me get you the specs
[23:23] <Need> HMM.. that gave me to much. haha
[23:24] <Need> Pentium D 3.2 8 gigs of ram
[23:28] <lynorian> not sure unity would run well on a pentium D
[23:29] <Need> ok
[23:30] <Andymc> I installed Lubuntu on UEFI mode successfully yesterday but messed up today when adding a third OS. I had to reformat but now I can't get Lubuntu to install in UEFI mode. I'm doing exactly as I did yesterday. Using unetbootin, windows 8, USB stick. What can I do?
[23:31] <Andymc> I restored my main OS from a disk and doing exactly as I did previously, but this time windows skips over the USB even when I manually tell it to boot from that device
[23:33] <Andymc_> What can I do?
