lee1Hello, I just installed 16.04.1 lubuntu, it's not recognizing my sound or wireless adapter. It does see my ethernet adapter, but no wifi. Older computer Acer Aspire 452002:53
lee1Can anyone help02:53
tsimonq2lee1: I would suggest sending an email to lubuntu-users@lists.ubuntu.com if you don't get a quick response.02:55
tsimonq2lee1: Unfortunately I'm busy at the moment, so I can't help you, but that's what you should do if nobody else comes around. :)02:55
lee1tsimonq2: thanks02:56
tsimonq2lee1: No problem. :)02:56
H2I had installed Lubuntu 16.04 x64 but was not able to play DVD either with VLC or gnome media play, thanks.02:57
tsimonq2H2: Were you around for my response to lee1? Just curious.02:58
H2tsimonq2: Unfortunately, not... I just joined.02:58
tsimonq2H2: I'm busy at the moment so I'm unable to help you with your problem, but if nobody comes around, you should send an email to lubuntu-users@lists.ubuntu.com and you'll get a decent response within a day or two. :)02:59
H2Oh, I see.  Thank you for your recommendation.02:59
tsimonq2No problem. :)02:59
tsimonq2wxl: We should change the topic to include "If you don't get an answer within a reasonable amount of time, send an email to lubuntu-users@lists.ubuntu.com and you will get an answer within a day or two."03:00

uioHi, trying to install lubuntu 16.04 alongside Windows 7, but there is not this option in the install process... what should I do?12:29
uioI tried to free up space from Windows following this link : http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/windows-vista/resize-a-partition-for-free-in-windows-vista/12:30
uioBut even after that, it just shows up as 'free space' when I select the do something else option...12:31
uioI've seen some screenshots showing 'install Lubuntu alongside Windows 7", but I can't seem to access this option...12:35

wxlthelef: need something?18:54
thelefwhen I install lubuntu all I get is the prompt.  How do I get a gui19:01
wxldid you check the disc (or install media) for defects?19:02
wxlnot to mention did you check the hashes of the iso?19:02
wxlcuz downloading/copying errors DO happen. and one bit can make all the difference.19:03

i8igmacnew user here... i like it on my thin mini itx budget build21:40
i8igmacapt-cache search firmware-atheros | not exist21:42
i8igmacim running a dist-upgrade now.21:42
wxli8igmac: what are you trying to accomplish?21:48
i8igmaci would like to make sure im using the latest atheros firmware.21:49
i8igmacwhen i run `iw list` the max bit rate shows 54.0 Mbps... these cards where advertised 300Mbps21:50
wxlis this a proprietary driver?21:54
i8igmacit would seem as if, its generic? firmware-atheros does not exist in the repo21:59
wxlthe drivers are kernel modules. they usually don't.21:59
wxlunless they're some proprietary thing, in which case, you'll need to do some hunting anyways21:59
wxlyou can see the current driver with `lspci -nnk`22:00
i8igmacoh thats nice22:01
i8igmacKernel driver in use: ath9k22:02
i8igmaci have hunted down some firmware-atheros before. but so far dpkg didnt like the packages i tried22:02
i8igmacif i was to add a repo, might you suggest a good one to add?22:03
wxlhttp://askubuntu.com/questions/121932/ath9k-driver-reinstallation#12197922:05
i8igmacthank you ill check it out22:07
wxli can't myself confirm this works for sure22:08
wxlthis suggests it should just be in the kernel https://wireless.wiki.kernel.org/en/users/Drivers/ath9k22:09
wxlour upstream debian also includes it https://wiki.debian.org/ath9k22:10
wxli8igmac: might want to check if your particular chip is covered22:39
