| andy___ | which ubuntu for macbok pro 2009? | 00:23 |
|---|---|---|
| andy___ | or is is lubuntu? do i download onto memory disc then install? | 00:23 |
| wxl | that's an intel chip afaik so amd64 | 00:23 |
| wxl | lubuntu would use less resources which is always nice | 00:24 |
| andy___ | cool | 00:24 |
| wxl | you download the iso, pop it onto a usb, boot to it and then install it | 00:24 |
| andy___ | do i just download onto memory stick? | 00:24 |
| andy___ | oh ok | 00:24 |
| wxl | you download it | 00:24 |
| wxl | then you need ot bit by bit copy it to the usb | 00:24 |
| wxl | it's a disk image, not a traditional file | 00:24 |
| wxl | you're actually copying over the entire file system, essentially | 00:25 |
| wxl | disk utlity should be able to handle that for you | 00:25 |
| andy___ | yes i need to wipe my system as i have a virus. | 00:25 |
| andy___ | so i thought i woyuld try lubuntu | 00:25 |
| wxl | that's part of the installation process | 00:25 |
| wxl | os x viruses are rare | 00:26 |
| andy___ | from facebook! | 00:26 |
| andy___ | yes | 00:26 |
| wxl | wow, really | 00:26 |
| wxl | do you know what virus it is? | 00:26 |
| andy___ | it was a post about human viruses ironically. | 00:26 |
| andy___ | phishing i think | 00:27 |
| wxl | fantastic | 00:27 |
| andy___ | but it corrupted my home screen as well | 00:27 |
| * wxl makes note to delete his facebook account | 00:27 | |
| andy___ | yeah be careful. | 00:27 |
| wxl | not like i ever USE it but still :) | 00:27 |
| andy___ | so basically its pretty easy to insatall? | 00:27 |
| wxl | yep | 00:28 |
| wxl | walks you through the whole process | 00:28 |
| wxl | the hardest part is downloading the image and getting it on the usb | 00:28 |
| wxl | and that's not that hard | 00:28 |
| andy___ | ok great , so when i press cntrl command and R and go into disc section, its obvious from there? | 00:28 |
| wxl | https://tutorials.ubuntu.com/tutorial/tutorial-create-a-usb-stick-on-macos?backURL=%2F#0 | 00:29 |
| wxl | that should get you through it | 00:30 |
| wxl | if you have problems, ask here but i gotta jet so good luck! | 00:31 |
| andy___ | thanks heaps dude | 00:31 |

| Notsonoble | is there a lubuntu next channel? | 15:37 |
| LargePrime | does anyone here use vlc? | 18:13 |
| wxl | occassionally | 18:13 |
| LargePrime | https://github.com/lxde/lxqt/issues/1188 | 18:14 |
| LargePrime | I am getting a weird bug, that seems to point at qt | 18:14 |
| LargePrime | would you mind tellime me what version you use wxl ? | 18:14 |
| LargePrime | apparently a fix is to build vc | 18:15 |
| LargePrime | vlc | 18:15 |
| LargePrime | both the snap and the ppa:videolan/* seem buggy | 18:16 |
| LargePrime | as in crash on frst use | 18:16 |
| wxl | holy tl;dr | 18:17 |
| LargePrime | lubuntu has an old 2.2.4 in repo | 18:17 |
| LargePrime | one sec wxl | 18:17 |
| wxl | it appears the issue is related to lxqt, no? | 18:17 |
| LargePrime | it seems | 18:19 |
| LargePrime | i know nothing | 18:19 |
| wxl | are you using lxqt or lxde? | 18:19 |
| LargePrime | but i do have a backtrace | 18:19 |
| LargePrime | lubuntu 17.04 | 18:19 |
| wxl | so lxde | 18:19 |
| wxl | i.e. that's not related at all | 18:19 |
| LargePrime | how can i delete this thread | 18:20 |
| LargePrime | lol | 18:20 |
| LargePrime | sorry to bother you | 18:20 |
| LargePrime | wxl, i have a crash in vlc and i have a backtrace that seems to point at Qt. could you help me figgure out how to file this bug? | 18:33 |
| wxl | i would start as filing it against vlc | 18:33 |
| LargePrime | vlc said that it is clear that it is a Qt bug | 18:34 |
| LargePrime | in #vvideolan | 18:34 |
| LargePrime | wxl | 18:34 |
| wxl | and what is the bug then? | 18:35 |
| wxl | what's the fix? | 18:35 |
| wxl | is it resolvable? | 18:36 |
| wxl | is it something about the version of qt being used? | 18:36 |
| LargePrime | i don't know, they looked at the backtrace and said | 18:36 |
| LargePrime | (gdb) backtrace full | 18:36 |
| LargePrime | #0 0x00007fffea525394 in () at /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libQt5Widgets.so.5 | 18:36 |
| LargePrime | sso version 5 | 18:37 |
| wxl | is that all they said? XD | 18:37 |
| LargePrime | <thresh> looks like a bug in Qt | 18:38 |
| LargePrime | yep | 18:38 |
| wxl | then i would ask them what they propose as a fix to it. | 18:38 |
| wxl | a different version of qt perhaps? | 18:38 |
| LargePrime | they said file a bug with Qt. suggested perhaps launchpad when i asked for more direction | 18:39 |
| wxl | fun :) | 18:39 |
| LargePrime | for certain definitions... | 18:40 |
| LargePrime | I am just trying to file a bug, if you will point me in a direction, i'll do whatever wxl | 18:41 |
| LargePrime | what version of vlc do you have installed wxl? | 18:41 |
| wxl | just file it against qt | 18:41 |
| wxl | i have an old version of lubuntu presently so it's not applicable | 18:41 |
| LargePrime | how? like where? | 18:41 |
| wxl | !bug | 18:42 |
| ubottu | If you find a bug in Ubuntu or any of its derivatives, please report it using the command « ubuntu-bug <package> » - See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs for other ways to report bugs. | 18:42 |
| LargePrime | sorry, i figgured out to search for the lib, and then found the package | 18:43 |
| LargePrime | thank you wxl | 18:43 |
| wxl | you could also try #qt here | 18:43 |
| Linux_Explore | hello, will installing Lubuntu Desktop Environment on Ubuntu Mate 16.04.3 create any conflicts? | 19:30 |
| xangua | If you install the metapackage "lubuntu-desktop" just the usual double apps for everything | 20:38 |
