[15:02] <Mouxon> Hi! I just upgraded to Zesty (from Yakkety) and now, I have a lot of problems with gtk application. I tried to execute gedit or gtk3-demo, but nothing happened and there is no error. Any idea to show the log ?
[15:15] <Scungielli> Question:  What is the best/fastest LIGHTWEIGHT web browser for running on an old netbook?  1GB ram, Intel Atom CPU
[15:27] <leszek> Scungielli: xxxterm
[15:27] <leszek> upps they renamed it
[15:27] <leszek> how is it called now
[15:27] <leszek> xombrero
[15:28] <leszek> gtkwebkit based and uses the vim like commands for controlling it. So might be something getting used to
[15:47] <kerbyath> Hello
[15:48] <kerbyath> first time here, don't know how it works...
[15:50] <kerbyath> does it works like a chat?
[15:51] <leszek> kerbyath: exactly
[15:51] <leszek> its a chat system
[15:51] <leszek> pretty old one actually
[15:51] <leszek> kerbyath: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internet_Relay_Chat
[15:52] <kerbyath> fantastic, I have just installed lubuntu on another computer but I need help to understand why I cannot reach my access point configuration page from mozilla browser
[15:53] <leszek> ok but your router or access point is using dhcp so clients automatically get an address right ?
[15:54] <kerbyath> it's an outdoor access point that can be used like a repeater, it must be configured without dhcp, it's very simple, I saw it yesterday in the shop laboratory how to configure it, they just put manually the ip address on the network configuration and then they reach it via web browser ....I can see the wired connection linked in the small icon on the status bar, I have configured the ip address, I see that
[15:55] <leszek> ah ok
[15:55] <kerbyath> Isee that the connection status reports the ip address, but when I open mozilla and put the ip adrress it says that the page is unreachable
[15:55] <leszek> have you tried pinging your access point
[15:55] <kerbyath> that's the point... how should I do? with windows I type ipconfig.... and here ?
[15:56] <leszek> for pinging you type ipconfig ? I just type ping 127.0.0.1 :)
[15:57] <kerbyath> oh yes sorry.... you are right
[15:58] <kerbyath> is the same with lubuntu? I try
[15:58] <kerbyath> NETWORK IS UNREACHABLE
[16:00] <leszek> kerbyath: hmm... then please the output of ifconfig (please use a pastebin.com service so you don't spam in here but just paste on this website and post the link here)
[16:01] <kerbyath> thanks, the problem is that I don't have ifconfig installed, maybe I have downloaded a limited version of lubuntu...
[16:02] <leszek> might be just it isn't installed anymore. Which version of lubuntu ?
[16:03] <kerbyath> 17.04
[16:03] <leszek> I still have the LTS 16.04 here
[16:03] <leszek> just a sec
[16:03] <kerbyath> :-)
[16:05] <leszek> kerbyath: ip link ls up  should list all interfaces which are up
[16:06] <leszek> check if your ethernet device is listed there
[16:09] <kerbyath> no it is not listed... but... then it is strange to me that the ethernet icon shows the connection.... or not...?
[16:09] <leszek> yes thats indeed strange
[16:09] <kerbyath> may be on lubuntu you have to specify other values than the ip address and the subnet mask?
[16:10] <leszek> usually not
[16:10] <leszek> can you try bringing the interface up with ip link set dev eth0 up  (replace eth0 with your ethernet name you can get from ip a)
[16:12] <kerbyath> I try
[16:13] <kerbyath> let's try another thing... I delete the wired connection, so I won't have no connections at all, I reset the access point and I will reconnect the ethernet cable
[16:14] <leszek> if the device itself is down it won't change a thing I think
[16:17] <kerbyath> yeeeeeeee solved :-)
[16:17] <leszek> nice
[16:19] <kerbyath> thank you anyway... we could say that I havae solved the problem but... not for my ability.... just tjhe case!!!!
[16:19] <kerbyath> :-) :-)
[16:20] <kerbyath> thksss
