[00:43] <LoLface299> nevermind; installing bsd
[00:43] <LoLface299> screwed it up
[01:23] <LoLface299> poweroff
[19:35] <Ruber> Hello guys
[19:35] <Ruber> I am in real help to get lubuntu to work on my computer
[19:36] <wxl> what's up @Ruber ?
[19:36] <Ruber> i have installed both 16.04.2 and 16.10 on my usb stick with rufus
[19:36] <Ruber> and when i try to start it on my computer it will get stuck at blinking cursor
[19:37] <Ruber> cant do anything
[19:37] <wxl> i can't really vouch for rufus
[19:37] <Ruber> i have right now on the computer dual boot with windows 8.1 and linux mint but i want to format it totaly and get lubuntu for a clean install
[19:37] <wxl> i'd just use dd
[19:37] <Ruber> what is dd?
[19:38]  * wxl wonders
[19:38] <wxl> !dd
[19:38] <wxl> nope
[19:38] <wxl> it's a linux utility
[19:39] <Ruber> you mean i should do it from linux mint to the usb?
[19:39] <genii> Yes
[19:39] <wxl> i'd trust that a lot more
[19:39] <wxl> dd is a bit by bit copy
[19:39] <Ruber> okay
[19:40] <Ruber> because when i tried now on my other computer the rufus 16.04
[19:40] <genii> The ISO files are hybrid images. This means you can use dd to just copy it bit-by-bit to a USB stick and it will work
[19:40] <wxl> like i said, i can't vouch for rufus
[19:40] <wxl> it's unclear if rufus does any checking of the installation media
[19:40] <wxl> plus, you also have to make sure you check the hashes of the download iso
[19:40] <Ruber> i got to the start screen where i can click start without install and then i just got black screen
[19:41] <Ruber> okay
[19:41] <genii> !nomodeset
[19:41] <wxl> one bit of difference can lead to strange problems
[19:41] <wxl> ^^ it could also be that
[19:41] <wxl> you could also try mkusb
[19:41] <wxl> it uses dd
[19:41] <wxl> !mkusb
[19:41] <wxl> darnit ubottu you're no fun
[19:43] <Ruber> haha
[19:44] <wxl> !mkusb is <reply> mkusb is a front end to dd, the bit by bit command line utility. It is arguably the safest and most reliable solution to preparing a USB as installation media. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/mkusb for more information.
[19:46] <Ruber> okey thanks
[19:47] <genii> wxl: Hm. http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?searchon=contents&keywords=mkusb&mode=exactfilename&suite=yakkety&arch=any
[19:48] <wxl> @genii: yeah, community supported thing.
[19:48] <wxl> @genii: we seem to have no instructions on dd from what i can find
[19:50] <Ruber> this is not easy
[19:50] <Ruber> but how do i get nomodeset
[19:50] <Ruber> where do i put it in
[22:58] <musician_pro> firefox is telling me that I've not installed PulseAudio
[22:58] <musician_pro> I don't know why I have not this problem since 2 week
[22:59] <musician_pro> https://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/PulseAudio/Download I went here but I don't understand how I can install it
[23:00] <lyn||ian> musician_pro, try installing from the repos with your paackage manager of choice
[23:01] <lyn||ian> if something on your firefox needs pulseaudio
[23:01] <musician_pro> ok
[23:01] <musician_pro> I try thx
[23:05] <musician_pro> I try
[23:05] <musician_pro> sudo apt-get purge firefox
[23:05] <musician_pro> and after
[23:05] <musician_pro> sudo apt-get install firefox
[23:05] <musician_pro> but nothing :(
[23:05] <wxl> @musician_pro: he means install pulseaudio
[23:07] <musician_pro> :\ ok sorry
[23:09] <musician_pro> did it <3 really thanks lyn||ian and wxl !
[23:09] <musician_pro> I'm producer and composer if you need some sounds for sound design, software or OS you are welcome.
[23:10] <musician_pro> (I really love Lubuntu)
[23:13] <wxl> @musician_pro: personally i'd suggest using jack
[23:14] <musician_pro> wxl, what do you mean for "jack"?
[23:20] <wxl> @musician_pro: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/What%20is%20JACK
[23:23] <wxl> !jack is <reply> The JACK Audio Connection Kit is a sound server meant for professional applications, allowing different audio protocols and applications to interconnect in nearly unlimited ways. This is the core of Ubuntu Studio's audio workflow. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/What%20is%20JACK for more information on JACK in general.
