[03:45] <perla> Hi. How can I change the color of the "pull-up" menus in LxQt?
[03:53] <krytarik> perla: I suggest asking that in an LXQt-related channel, like #lxde on this network. :)
[04:05] <perla> krytarik, OK, thanks.
[04:33] <glitchd> 16.10 has been released, right?

[05:47] <kilog> ?
[05:47] <glitchd> and whats your question?
[10:14] <kopias> How to set it so i have autologin at startup (since i have encrypted drive) but want to lock (ctrl+alt+del) the station with password?
[10:15] <kopias> Im using ubuntu studio and it had this behavior (that why i know its possible) but i was fiddling with "users and groups" settings and i lost password protection after locking the screen
[10:16] <kopias> as always any help/tips would be appreciated
[10:17] <kopias> ubuntu 16.10 x64
[10:24] <kopias> if Im thinking correctly I need to disable "ask password at login" in "users and groups" check-box and use some other way to enable auto-login at startup
[10:24] <kopias> right? :)
[12:57] <MoBeats> Hi linux geeks.
[12:58] <MoBeats> Looking for advice please. What is the best way to set system-wide proxy settings.
[12:58] <MoBeats> I'm running ubuntu-studio 16.04.2
[12:58] <cfhowlett> needlessly provocative greeting: a simple "greetings" would be more polite
[12:58] <cfhowlett> !proxy | MoBeats
[12:59] <cfhowlett> more eyes on the problem in #ubuntu
[12:59] <MoBeats> whatever cfhowlett. I'm just being nice, I have my own personality, if you think I'm being impolite, then that's your problem,
[13:00] <MoBeats> thanks for your answer though.
[13:01] <knome> just a reminder for everybody that you are accepting the channel terms of use and code of conduct by using the channel
[13:13] <MoBeats> I've noticed that there are gui applets in some flavours of ubuntu that don't seem to be present in vanilla xubuntu / ubuntu studio installations. In the past I have successfully installed gnome packages such as network-manager-gnome, which for the most part works well. There are still some things missing however, such as system-wide proxy settings, that I mentioned earlier.
[13:14] <MoBeats> Can anyone recommend a good article with suggestions for adding packages and customising xubuntu to add some of the missing functionality of other ubuntu flavours. Or just a good cfce desktop customisation guide? Thanks.
[13:14] <xubuntu71o> test
[13:15] <GridCube> hi
[13:15] <MoBeats> Hi GridCube :)
[13:15] <GridCube> MoBeats: I don't know of any gui proxy setting for xfce
[13:15] <xubuntu71o> Could someone please point me in the direction of the signing key for the iso?
[13:16] <xubuntu71o> i cant for the life of me find it anywhere
[13:18] <GridCube> signing key?
[13:18] <xubuntu71o> Yes
[13:19] <xubuntu71o> the key used to verify the integrity of the iso
[13:19] <knome> xubuntu71o, the ISO isn't signed, but you can checksum
[13:19] <xubuntu71o> ive found the *sums and *sums.gpg -- but those are pretty useless without a key to verify
[13:25] <GridCube> !md5

[14:40] <frankiee_> Hi! With the lubuntu 32-bit installation on a HP Pavillion dv1000 with an Intel Celeron 1.40GHz (480MB RAM) I got:
[14:40] <frankiee_> WARNING! PAE disabled. Use the parameter 'forcepae' to enable at your own risk. This kernel requires the following features not enabled on the CPU: Unable to boot - please use a kernel appropriate for your CPU.
[14:40] <frankiee_> Will this happen on xubuntu too?
[14:45] <SlabDabs> frankiee_: is it a live boot or a full install?
[14:46] <Spass> frankiee_: You may try this - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PAE
[14:46] <SlabDabs> was trying to look up a bit more information, but I'm not well versed
[14:46] <frankiee_> SlabDabs: full install
[14:46] <frankiee_> Hold up though, my xubuntu torrent is soon done downloading
[14:47] <SlabDabs> so you can't get it to boot into lubuntu at all?
[14:48] <frankiee_> SlabDabs: Well, lubuntu v12 works..
[14:49] <frankiee_> Anything more recent won't boot
[14:49] <SlabDabs> interesting
[14:50] <SlabDabs> wonder how much more intensive the requirements are on newer versions
[14:50] <frankiee_> OpenBSD 6 worked like a charm but I don't have time to set up X manually
[15:21] <SlabDabs> any luck yet frankiee_ ?
[15:36] <frankiee_> No
[15:37] <frankiee_> Let me recap:
[15:37] <frankiee_> Trying to install xubuntu on a HP Pavillion dv1000 with an Intel Celeron 1.40GHz (480MB RAM) but got: WARNING! PAE disabled. Use the parameter 'forcepae' to enable at your own risk. This kernel requires the following features not enabled on the CPU: Unable to boot - please use a kernel appropriate for your CPU.
[15:37] <frankiee_> This happened on lubuntu too and I was forced to downgrade from v16 to v12. Is there any solution here?
[15:37] <frankiee_> <
[15:37] <frankiee_> * a solution
[15:47] <knome> frankiee_, if you have tried the forcepae option, and it doesn't work, then there is no solution; you will have to use an operating system version that supports non-PAE computers
[15:47] <knome> frankiee_, ultimately, with the specs you mentioned, xubuntu 16.04 would be very slow - likely too slow for most of the people to consider "usable"
[15:49] <frankiee_> knome: How do I try the forcepae option?
[15:50] <frankiee_> knome: Is there a version of xubuntu that supports non-PAE?
[15:50] <knome> !pae | frankiee_
[15:50] <knome> yes, 12.04 and earlier
[15:51] <knome> those aren't supported any more though, so you'd be completely "on your own"
[16:11] <MoBeats> frankiee_: may I suggest you look for an alternative distro? perhaps if you search distrowatch and filter by "old computers" you might find something useful.
[16:45] <frankiee_> MoBeats: I really want xubuntu :/
[16:46] <frankiee_> MoBeats: I could install an old distro, or just now when I tried to install OpenBSD, but I don't have time to configure all the X and multimedia stuff
[17:02] <frankiee_> MoBeats: you produce beats btw?
[17:02] <MoBeats> once upon a time frankiee_ - I'm semi retired now.
[17:05] <zincing> Hi, everyone! Is it possible to set up a script to do the following:
[17:05] <MoBeats> franiee_ have you tried some of the older audio oriented distros, eg 64 Studio, AVLinux? Perhaps you might have more luck getting them to work? Are you using onboard sound or a discrete interface?
[17:06] <zincing> If my mouse "dongle" is inserted at bootup time the touch pad is disable? If the dongle is not inserted, the touch pad is activated?
[17:07] <MoBeats> zincing check out touchpad-indicator .
[17:09] <MoBeats> frankiee_ ^ dynebolic might be worth a look too.
[17:10] <frankiee_> MoBeats: http://64studio.com/ looks awesome I can't believe I sold my Technics turntables back in the day!
[17:10] <knome> frankiee_, MoBeats: this is the support channel, but we have #xubuntu-offtopic for general chatter
[17:11] <frankiee_> yeah
[17:11] <frankiee_> knome: I'm trying to get xubuntu to work on a non-PAE computer
[17:11] <frankiee_> without having to revert to an old version
[17:11] <zincing> MoBeats: Not sure what you mean
[17:12] <knome> frankiee_, yes, and i pointed you to the PAE page with instructions on how to try "forcepae"
[17:13] <MoBeats> zincing visit this link - https://launchpad.net/~atareao/+archive/ubuntu/atareao
[17:14] <MoBeats> there is a package called touchpad-indicator available that does what you asked for (disable touchpad when usb mouse is present)
[17:14] <zincing> MoBeats: Thanks a zillion!
[17:14] <MoBeats> it's not in the repos, so you have to install it another way if you want to use it - eg follow instructions at that linky to add the PPA.
[17:15] <MoBeats> np
[17:15] <knome> and as always with PPAs, you install packages from them at your own risk
[17:20] <zincing> knome: Thanks for the advice!
[17:34] <frankiee_> MoBeats: thank you man
[17:34] <frankiee_> knome: thank you man
[17:34] <frankiee_> * sorry
[17:34] <MoBeats> frankiee_ np :)
[17:36] <frankiee_> knome: is there a way to recompile the kernel with fake pae support?
[17:37] <frankiee_> then inject that kernel into the install iso
[21:33] <xubuntu274> help
