| servernoob | hi there | 03:40 |
|---|---|---|
| servernoob | i have an old desktop pc | 03:40 |
| servernoob | and would like to use that as a web server | 03:40 |
| servernoob | and also use it sometimes for web browsing, watching videos, etc | 03:40 |
| servernoob | so would lubuntu be a good fit for it? | 03:41 |
| servernoob | for both server and home uses | 03:41 |
| servernoob | both uses will be light | 03:41 |
| servernoob | RAM is 4GB | 03:43 |
| servernoob | anyone? | 03:43 |
| servernoob | ? | 03:45 |
| krytarik | Well, Lubuntu is the most lightweight of all Ubuntu flavors, so.. yes. | 03:49 |
| servernoob | does it have all the server functionality of ubuntu? | 04:02 |
| tsimonq2 | servernoob: Yes. | 04:03 |
| servernoob | can i install all ubuntu apps in lubuntu? | 04:04 |
| tsimonq2 | servernoob: Lubuntu is Ubuntu with LXDE, theming, and a bit of polish. | 04:04 |
| tsimonq2 | servernoob: So yes. | 04:04 |
| tsimonq2 | It's literally Ubuntu. :) | 04:04 |
| servernoob | only the theme is different? | 04:04 |
| servernoob | as in only the looks and the user interface? | 04:04 |
| servernoob | under the hood i can use all the server features as well as all applications? | 04:05 |
| tsimonq2 | Absolutely. | 04:07 |
| tsimonq2 | 100% | 04:07 |
| tsimonq2 | servernoob: This is not Linux Mint where they butcher the whole setup. ;) | 04:07 |
| servernoob | oh do you think a 35GB partition would be enough to setup lubuntu on? | 04:21 |
| servernoob | can it read and write ntfs partitions? | 04:22 |
| tsimonq2 | servernoob: 35 GB is absolutely enough | 04:24 |
| tsimonq2 | servernoob: In fact, you could *probably* run it with 7 GB... | 04:24 |
| tsimonq2 | servernoob: And yes, it can read/write NTFS partitions. | 04:24 |
| servernoob | i already have a windows installed on it with multiple ntfs partitions. the installation is quite messed up it is slow but i can't reinstall it because i need the way the apps are setup occasionally. but for most times i would want to use lubuntu, while being able to access files on the windows ntfs partitions. do you think this setup can work? | 04:27 |

| inerkick | Hi Guys. I installed Lubuntu on my Toshiba c640 laptop. It got overheating issue. I did install TLP as well as psensors and lm-sensors. But it's still heating up like crazy and automatically shuts down. I even got the laptop serviced few days ago and they even got a cooling agent applied to the CPU. Kindly help how to get the heating working properly | 05:32 |
| inerkick | at this moment the temperature fluctuates as shown and if it even slightly goes above 80C chances are it shuts down automatically . https://pastebin.com/6Z9bWpmZ | 05:36 |

| daringfireball | hey | 07:56 |
| daringfireball | i already have a windows installed on it with multiple ntfs partitions. the installation is quite messed up it is slow but i can't reinstall it because i need the way the apps are setup occasionally. but for most times i would want to use lubuntu, while being able to access files on the windows ntfs partitions. do you think this setup can work? | 07:56 |
| daringfireball | anyone? | 07:57 |
| tsimonq2 | daringfireball: Hey | 07:58 |
| tsimonq2 | daringfireball: Hold on, I have an idea | 07:58 |
| tsimonq2 | daringfireball: Give me a sec :) | 07:58 |
| daringfireball | tsimonq2: sure | 07:58 |
| tsimonq2 | daringfireball: Take a look a this: https://askubuntu.com/questions/113733/how-do-i-correctly-mount-a-ntfs-partition-in-etc-fstab | 07:59 |
| malonumas | linux can read ntfs file system | 07:59 |
| tsimonq2 | daringfireball: What I would do is set the Windows partition to mount somewhere convenient at boot so you can always access your files | 07:59 |
| tsimonq2 | malonumas: That's my point ;) | 07:59 |
| malonumas | ;) | 08:00 |
| tsimonq2 | daringfireball: Then you'll be able to access all of your files at all times | 08:00 |
| daringfireball | by default it would't be able to access ntfs? | 08:00 |
| tsimonq2 | daringfireball: By default it will. | 08:01 |
| daringfireball | but? | 08:01 |
| tsimonq2 | daringfireball: Just put something in /etc/fstab and it you will always have it mounted. | 08:01 |
| tsimonq2 | There is no "but" | 08:01 |
| tsimonq2 | Lubuntu can use NTFS partitions | 08:01 |
| tsimonq2 | Mount them and use them. | 08:01 |
| daringfireball | can i install from a usb drive? | 08:02 |
| tsimonq2 | Install Lubuntu from a USB drive? | 08:02 |
| daringfireball | yes | 08:02 |
| tsimonq2 | daringfireball: Do you have Lubuntu on the USB drive? | 08:04 |
| tsimonq2 | Or, what's on the USB drive? | 08:04 |
| daringfireball | i have nothing on the usb drive, have downloaded the iso that's it | 08:04 |
| daringfireball | now to install it can i do it from the usb drive? | 08:05 |
| tsimonq2 | Yes you can. | 08:05 |
| tsimonq2 | daringfireball: What operating system are you on now? | 08:05 |
| daringfireball | windows | 08:14 |
| tsimonq2 | daringfireball: Take a look at this, the same applies for Lubuntu: https://tutorials.ubuntu.com/tutorial/tutorial-create-a-usb-stick-on-windows?_ga=2.124109514.1906335323.1501362208-2004590858.1489273770#0 | 08:16 |
| daringfireball | is it possible to create a "live cd" (on usb drive) for lubuntu? | 08:20 |
| daringfireball | to try it out first | 08:20 |
| tsimonq2 | daringfireball: Yep. That's what it does. | 08:23 |
| tsimonq2 | daringfireball: It's one ISO that has both the capability to try it out and install it. | 08:23 |
| daringfireball | ok i will try it out thank you so much for all your help | 08:27 |
| tsimonq2 | You're welcome. :) | 08:27 |

| Noethernet | Hey I'm trying out the lubuntu live from usb flash drive | 14:33 |
| Noethernet | machine has windows installed | 14:33 |
| Noethernet | so i boot up using the flash drive | 14:33 |
| Noethernet | but internet isn't working | 14:33 |
| Noethernet | via ethernet | 14:33 |
| Noethernet | i rebooted into windows and it is working fine | 14:34 |
| Noethernet | i also disabled wake on lan setting on windows | 14:34 |
| Noethernet | and then rebooted into lubuntu | 14:34 |
| Noethernet | again internet not working | 14:34 |
| Noethernet | so i mess around with the network settings | 14:35 |
| Noethernet | create a new connection | 14:35 |
| Noethernet | use the google dns | 14:35 |
| Noethernet | 8.8.8.8 | 14:35 |
| Noethernet | and it started to work | 14:35 |
| Noethernet | but it disconnects after a while | 14:35 |
| Noethernet | like in a few minutes | 14:36 |
| Noethernet | if i reconnect to "ethernet network 2" it works again for a few minutes | 14:36 |
| Noethernet | what could be the solution for this? | 14:36 |
| Noethernet | anyone? | 14:36 |
| Noethernet | ? | 14:39 |
| Noethernet | ? | 14:41 |
| Noethernet | Hello? | 14:42 |
| Noethernet | anyone have any idea? | 14:44 |
| Noethernet | Still waiting... | 14:48 |
| Noethernet | ? | 14:51 |
| Noethernet | ? | 15:06 |
| Noethernet | Hey I'm trying out the lubuntu live from usb flash drive | 15:13 |
| Noethernet | machine has windows installed | 15:13 |
| Noethernet | so i boot up using the flash drive | 15:13 |
| Noethernet | but internet isn't working | 15:13 |
| Noethernet | via ethernet | 15:13 |
| Noethernet | i rebooted into windows and it is working fine | 15:13 |
| Noethernet | i also disabled wake on lan setting on windows | 15:13 |

| tsimonq2 | !patience | Noethernet2 | 15:21 |
| ubottu | Noethernet2: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. While you wait, try searching https://help.ubuntu.com or http://ubuntuforums.org or http://askubuntu.com/ | 15:21 |
| Noethernet2 | Sorry about that, i was just hoping to have lububtu running by today | 15:27 |
| tsimonq2 | Noethernet2: What version of Lubuntu? | 15:28 |
| Noethernet2 | The latest one | 15:29 |
| Noethernet2 | 17.04 i think | 15:29 |
| Noethernet2 | just downloaded it earlier today | 15:29 |
| Noethernet2 | Downloading of arch linux via torrent works fine, web browsing in firefox does not | 15:30 |
| Noethernet2 | Yep it is 17.04 | 15:39 |
| tsimonq2 | Noethernet2: What's the output of /etc/resolv.conf? | 15:42 |
| tsimonq2 | Noethernet2: Also, if 17.04 is giving you issues, I would consider trying 16.04. The problem is that 17.04 and on uses systemd-resolved which is getting better but I don't know why they switched to it by default... | 15:43 |
| tsimonq2 | Noethernet2: In 17.10 it should be fixed but that's still in development | 15:43 |
| Noethernet2 | nameserver 127.0.0.53 | 15:44 |
| Noethernet2 | is 16.04 long term release version? | 15:44 |
| tsimonq2 | Noethernet2: Yes, 17.04 is not a LTS version but 16.04 is. | 15:46 |
| Noethernet2 | nameserver 127.0.053 <= that's what's in resolv.conf | 15:46 |
| tsimonq2 | Noethernet2: Replace that with `nameserver 8.8.8.8` | 15:46 |
| Noethernet2 | seems to be working now | 15:49 |
| Noethernet2 | thanks | 15:49 |
| Noethernet2 | i'll use it for a while and if there's a problem again I'll be back | 15:49 |
| Noethernet2 | thanks again | 15:49 |
| Noethernet2 | i think i will go for the lts version though | 15:49 |
| Noethernet2 | hey, i am running this off a 4GB flash drive at the moment | 15:50 |
| Noethernet2 | if i download the iso here | 15:50 |
| Noethernet2 | will it be available if i take it to another machine? | 15:50 |
| tsimonq2 | Noethernet2: yep | 15:51 |
| tsimonq2 | Noethernet2: You'll just have to make the edit again | 15:51 |
| Noethernet2 | edit to resolv.conf? | 15:53 |
| Noethernet2 | even in the lts release? | 15:53 |
| tsimonq2 | Noethernet2: Oh, not in 16.04 | 15:54 |
| tsimonq2 | Noethernet2: Sorry, just in 17.04 | 15:54 |
| Noethernet2 | downloading 16.04 on the flash drive now | 15:56 |
| Noethernet2 | hope i won't have to redownload on another pc | 15:56 |
| Noethernet2 | thanks again | 15:57 |
| tsimonq2 | np :) | 15:58 |
| Noethernet2 | Lubuntu does feel extremely fast though | 16:05 |
| Noethernet2 | even on my amd athlon dual core system from several years ago | 16:05 |
| tsimonq2 | :D | 16:08 |
| Noethernet2 | Hey I can't find the downloaded iso file anywhere on the flash drive | 16:13 |
| Noethernet2 | Looks like ill have to re download it | 16:18 |
| tsimonq2 | Noethernet2: Whenever you download anything on a live Lubuntu instance, it does not stay between reboots | 16:19 |
