| AlexPortable | does lubuntu contains any extra graphics / sound drivers / stuff apart from a server installation? | 01:20 |
|---|---|---|
| wxl | absolutely, AlexPortable. it has the whole X11 stack, for Pete's sake. | 01:22 |
| AlexPortable | wxl: can i somehow install that myself? | 01:24 |
| AlexPortable | im trying to create a more bare minimum with only a webbrowser basis | 01:25 |
| wxl | AlexPortable: so you only want to browse? | 01:25 |
| AlexPortable | yes | 01:25 |
| AlexPortable | well and sound and video playback (youtube and kodi) | 01:25 |
| wxl | AlexPortable: try using lubuntu-core. | 01:25 |
| wxl | i dunno what kodi is but with html5 in youtube you should have no problems | 01:26 |
| AlexPortable | kodi is a mediaplayer program | 01:26 |
| AlexPortable | how is lubuntu core different? | 01:28 |
| wxl | apt-cache show | grep Depends will show you | 01:30 |
| wxl | just put lubuntu-core/desktop after show | 01:30 |
| AlexPortable | what do you mean after show? | 01:30 |
| wxl | there's only about 38 packages in core, and about 92 in desktop | 01:30 |
| wxl | apt-cache show lubuntu-core | grep Depends | 01:30 |
| AlexPortable | ah | 01:30 |
| wxl | you can do one after the other with `apt-cache show lubuntu-{core,desktop} | grep Depends` assuming you're using bash | 01:31 |
| AlexPortable | ah thanks | 01:32 |
| AlexPortable | and how about installing those packages on debian/ubuntu server? | 01:32 |
| wxl | well the above are ubuntu packages | 01:33 |
| wxl | so do you have debian or ubuntu? | 01:33 |
| AlexPortable | i was testing with a bare-minimal system of debian | 01:33 |
| AlexPortable | and have an lubuntu installation, but it was kinda bloated for my use case | 01:33 |
| wxl | then that will take you more effort | 01:33 |
| wxl | they have lxde* metapackages (well, taskel tasks i imagine) that could help | 01:33 |
| AlexPortable | well i have a working solution with openbox and stuff, but im not sure what x11 things im missing | 01:33 |
| wxl | just go through the list of packages in -core | 01:34 |
| wxl | gotta jet but good luck! | 01:34 |
| AlexPortable | thanks :) | 01:34 |
| AlexPortable | bye | 01:34 |
| Antony567 | How to autostart few users? | 10:39 |
| rgsghsdghg | f | 12:44 |
| AlexPortable | What is the difference between lubuntu core and lubuntu minimal ? | 15:03 |
| paul__ | hi i can see wi fi networks can anybody help me ? | 16:02 |
| Falconic | so, I'm trying to use a document and cloud drive manager on lubuntu, and it's telling me to start by opening Activities and typing Online Accounts | 19:26 |
| Falconic | but I can't seem to open Activities... | 19:26 |
| Falconic | if it's relevant, I'm using a ThinkPad x220 | 19:27 |
| wxl | what is this thing, Falconic ? link? | 19:28 |
| Falconic | I tried using the upper left hot corner, nothing comes down, and using the command key(super I guess is the popular name for it on linux now?) | 19:28 |
| Falconic | it's Documents | 19:29 |
| wxl | link? | 19:29 |
| Falconic | wiki.gnome.org/Apps/Documents | 19:30 |
| wxl | Falconic: did you install this through the package maneger? | 19:30 |
| wxl | oh. and you know, this is designed to work with GNOME, not LXDE. | 19:30 |
| Falconic | yeah, through Software | 19:30 |
| wxl | clearly the instructions reference features of the GNOME desktop. | 19:31 |
| wxl | so you can install a LOOOOOT more stuff and get it. | 19:31 |
| Falconic | oh shoot, how did I miss that? | 19:31 |
| wxl | there's also an Ubuntu GNOME flavor, but i can't expect it to be as lightweight as Lubuntu (though I'm not sure) | 19:31 |
| Falconic | haha, okay, better start to this question | 19:31 |
| Falconic | is there a good way to have access to gDrive/gDocs on LUbuntu as a desktop app? | 19:32 |
| wxl | it's strange that it doesn't seem to depend upon gnome even though it says it's a standalone application | 19:32 |
| wxl | i'm not sure honestly | 19:32 |
| Falconic | or should I just use the browser based stuff for gDrive/gDocs? | 19:33 |
| wxl | that's probably what i'd suggest | 19:34 |
| wxl | i think there's also like google-cli or something like that that can be used to access some features of google on the command line but i'm not sure that's what you want | 19:34 |
| Falconic | okay, bummer, the browser apps don't like to play nice with Vivaldi | 19:35 |
| Falconic | XD | 19:35 |
| Falconic | nah, if it was for me I'd be fine, but it's for my SO | 19:35 |
| wxl | right right. the Google-native apps are probably more "at home" in reality. | 19:36 |
| Falconic | she was gonna be an IT major, but she said fuck it because it got too frustrating and now she refuses to us things that are not user friendly | 19:36 |
| Falconic | hahaha | 19:36 |
| wxl | (language) | 19:37 |
| Falconic | oop, sorry! | 19:37 |
| wxl | all good | 19:37 |
| Falconic | alright, so she'll have to use the web based access for them, silly users and needing their GUIs! XD | 19:39 |
| wxl | right | 19:39 |
| Falconic | thank you! have a great day | 19:39 |
| wxl | you too | 19:40 |
| Falconic | oh, is there a shortcut for terminal on LUbuntu? | 19:41 |
| lynorian_ | Falconic: control alt t | 19:41 |
| Falconic | thank you! :) | 19:41 |
| wxl | pick through ~/.config/openbox/lubuntu-rc.xml to see ohw that's set | 19:41 |
| wxl | it's easily changed if you prefer something else | 19:41 |
| AlexPortable | the main differences between lubuntu core and lubuntu-desktop are some packages. I'm trying to create a bare minimal system, which packages can i more remove? dbus-x11, lightdm, lightdm-gtk-greeter, lubuntu-artwork, lubuntu-default-settings, lubuntu-icon-theme, lxpanel, lxsession, lxterminal, openbox, pcmanfm, plymouth-theme-lubuntu-logo, | 22:07 |
| AlexPortable | plymouth-theme-lubuntu-text, ubuntu-mono, xserver-xorg-input-all, xserver-xorg-video-all, xserver-xorg-video-intel | 22:07 |
