mattywhey folks, now that ubuntu has stopped releasing 32bit versions of desktop is lubuntu going to go the same way shortly?08:39
LioneLLmagnet:?xt=urn:btih:218aaaa43c0f7b8f3ebc6e69cf2571922a944620&dn=lubuntu-17.10-desktop-i386.iso08:40
daxmattyw: as I understand it from watching devs talk about it: no, not any time soon08:47
mattywdax, that's good news, certainly the next lts should support i386?08:47
daxmattyw: 18.04? yes, i would expect so08:48
mattywdax, that would be great news thanks08:48
qswz17.10 is using LXQt? I don't see a big diff visuallly09:27
MastusWould appreciate a bit of help12:27
MastusSo is there 17.10 LubuntuNext (with LXQT) release or not12:28
Mastus"we do NOT recommend that people use it in production unless they are aware of the somewhat critical bugs associated (which are more than 10 at the point of writing this)"  <- Where is the bug tracker, https://launchpad.net/lubuntu-next shows only 1 critical bug12:34
Mastushttp://lubuntu.me/artful-released/ -> "You can install Lubuntu Next by using the links available on the cdimage server"  -> link is for daily-build12:35
qswzyou're usng what currently?12:42
qswzit's avail in solftware updater12:43
Mastuswell I'm "using" 14.10, but its going to an new build (new HW etc.)12:45
MastusI thought that 17.10 would be released as the LXDE and LXQT variant12:46
MastusSo is my best bet the daily build or the mini-image?12:51
agaidalubuntu should be LXDE, the Lubuntu Next image should be LXQt iirc12:55
MastusBut where is the Lubuntunext image?12:55
MastusAaargh, there is no minimal iso image for 17.10, though this post states it as option how to install http://lubuntu.me/artful-released/12:56
agaidaas announced: http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/lubuntu-next/daily-live/pending/12:57
MastusAand that's the daily build12:58
agaidaNext is still work in progress - and i guess that there will be an image with the final 17.10 too - but it is no bad thing to have work in progress in a current state13:00
* agaida think: with my LXQt hat on13:00
MastusSo the only option is the daily build...13:02
iiGhostXHow do you install .deb files?13:03
Mastusdpkg -i ?13:04
agaidaapt install13:04
agaidaand for local files: apt install ./$foo.deb13:05
agaidadpkg -i is a bit to low level and not really recommend13:05
agaidaed13:05
Mastustrue13:06
Mastusoh well, time to download the daily build then. I just wish that the home page would be a little clearer about the status of the lubuntunext, especially when you have been reading all summer that "Finally 17.10 Lubuntu will arrive with lxqt"13:07
agaidaBut thats a good thing - LXQt is new and has many rough edges - with the upcoming release many of them are polished. Sometimes it is better to wait a little bit longer - remember KDE 4? :P13:11
MastusOh yeah, that was bad13:47
agaidaAnd i guess thats the point: Lesson learned - never ever switch to fast. And it isn't wasted time - LXQt is the first time in debian stable (since 9), there are many bugfixes and improvements since than - beside a brand new Qt (many bugfixes) and new KF5 (some bugfixes) - so the upcoming LXQt release will fit for Lubuntu much better than 0.11.213:50
qswztoo13:52
qswzit'll be ready for 18.04 then?13:53
agaidaAnd sometimes it is just the sum of small things that make a good DE bad - maybe no show stopper for bleeding edge people - but for the normal user who "just want to use it"13:53
agaidaqswz: I really don't know - i'm "only" upstream13:54
qswzok13:54
agaidaimho it would be fine to make a rock stable main image with LXDE - one should not forget that it wil have five years of support - and a next image as polished as can be with support until .10 - LXQt is still unter heavy development and five years are a long time13:57
qswzare there other distros that have already released a version with LXQt?13:58
qswzI seeLXQt integrates with gentoo, fedora, debian, ..13:59
agaidasiduction since 2014 - based on debian sid - i guess some other sid based distros too - manjaro has an LXQt spin, newly fedora has a LXQt spin - but all have one thing in common14:00
agaidathey are less or more rolling so they will catch up with the latest development - and thats a fine thing if one decide to live on the cutting or bleeding edge14:01
qswzyea I see14:01
agaidaand it helps a lot to get LXQt more mature14:02
agaidaand this is a real benefit for the users of so called stable or release based environments14:03
agaidain other words - the answer: Yes we know there was a bug - it's fixed in commit #0815 don't fit very well for release based binary distributions :D14:05
bryanfrommacauhi14:59
Anti-Pizzahi15:00
bryanfrommacauquick question: I would like to change a power management setting - when I close lid, I would like it to "do nothing" - no sleep or lock screen or anything15:00
bryanfrommacauis there an easy way to add that option?15:00
bryanfrommacauand nevermind.....I just realized that switch off display won't actually switch off the display for an external display.....sorry sorry no question15:02
MastusOK, dailybuild Lubuntunext installed. Now need to change the GPU from this machine. "BRB" :)15:37
tsimonq2agaida is exactly right16:19
* agaida knows nothing about linux nor LXQt16:21
tsimonq2agaida: No but you16:22
tsimonq2*you're right with what you said16:22
tsimonq2That's my plan.16:22
agaidaand it is a good plan16:22
tsimonq2I agree.16:27
tsimonq2:P16:27
MastusLubuntuNext now installed from the dailybuild - so far only one hardlock :P17:35
Mastusqupzilla annoyingly does not work at all with the default nvidia drivers (after installing binary drivers all is ok)17:37
tsimonq2Mastus: And that's expected.17:38
tsimonq2Mastus: That is why we didn't release it as a final ISO.17:39
MastusWell, so far the experience has been very good. Keep up the goood work17:44
tsimonq2\17:53
tsimonq2\o/17:53
agaida:)17:56
Kamilionhuh18:08
Kamilionis that a bug in qupzilla or lower in QT?18:08
daxprobably qtwebengine, if my experience with qupzilla elsewhere is anything to go by18:57
daxi had to do somethingorother to disable GPU rendering on my AMD card or <canvas> stuff didn't work, and i remember seeing stuff about nvidia scroll by while i was researching that18:58
Kamilionthanks, that's helpful. Assume that only happens in qupzilla 2.x+?19:10
daxi don't have experience with pre-2.x/qtwebkit19:11
daxi think so19:11
Kamilionthanks. I've been sticking xenial's qupzilla on ISOs for a long time now19:11
Kamilionwhich was using an older QT5 that (iirc) didn't yet have qt3d (and possibly missing some of the qtgl stuff as well)19:12
Kamilionwhich I think showed up in 5.8 or 5.9, something like that19:12
dfsfgasdwhat aout krack21:03
dfsfgasdwhat about krack21:03
wxldon't do it21:04
dfsfgasdwxl: are you talking to me?21:05
wxlyes, crack is bad21:06
dfsfgasdwhy?21:06
wxlwell, it's highly addictive21:07
dfsfgasdI mean the krackattacks wi-fi21:07
wxloh yes, that's a thing21:07
dfsfgasdso what about krackattacks21:07
wxlthey're bad too21:08
dfsfgasdI am vilified online21:08
wxlwow, that must be hard21:09
dfsfgasdit was21:09
wxlbummer21:10
dfsfgasdwho are you wxl and what is your position here?21:10
wxli am that i am21:10
dfsfgasdbut you must tell who you are21:10
wxli must not, actually21:11
dfsfgasdtsimonq2:21:11
dfsfgasdtsimonq2: who is wxl ?21:11
dfsfgasdwhy would you not reveal yourself21:11
wxlwhy should i?21:11
wxlyou tell me your street address and then i'll think about it21:12
dfsfgasdhome street21:12
wxlyeah21:12
dfsfgasddo you believe in God?21:13
wxlthat's a weird address21:13
dfsfgasdGod21:14
dfsfgasdh21:15
dfsfgasdI need to talk to Adrian Lamo21:16
wxlwell, i'm pretty sure he's not here21:16
dfsfgasdsomeone might know21:16
wxlalso this is a support channel. if you're looking to chat about things unrelated to lubuntu support, you would need to go elsewhere21:17
dfsfgasdI contacted him before it happen21:17
dfsfgasdnow you're talking21:17
dfsfgasdI want to know the measure taken on krackattacks21:17
wxlhttps://usn.ubuntu.com/usn/usn-3455-1/21:17
dfsfgasda patch?21:17
dfsfgasdis it patched?21:18
wxldid you read the link?21:18
Kamilionthere's a difference between reading and understanding, apparently.21:19
dfsfgasdI'm not very clever21:19
wxlfixed21:20
Kamiliondfsfgasd: there's already a fixed wpa_supplicant package out for supported stuff21:20
dfsfgasdbut y did it happen?21:20
Kamilioni just got the fixed wpa_supplicant on xenial about an hour ago on one of my systems, i don't know how long ago the package was released.21:20
dfsfgasdfor how long did it happen?21:20
Kamilionwhat?21:20
wxlit's always been there21:20
dfsfgasddo I need to change all my password?21:20
Kamilionthe 4 way handshake problem?21:20
wxlor at least has been there for a long time21:20
KamilionThat has nothing to do with passwords21:21
wxlhere's how to fix it:21:21
wxl 1. turn wifi off everywhere21:21
KamilionSomeone can put up a fake second Access point with the same name as yours, and force vulnerable clients to load an null encryption key21:21
wxl 2. when updates are available, update your system21:21
wxl 3. when the system is updated, turn it back on21:21
dfsfgasddo you mean off wifi on my phone?21:21
wxlevery device capable of wifi, period21:22
Kamilionwhy? Do you expect someone to bring a wifi pineapple around you?21:22
KamilionDo you live near a coffee shop that would likely be exploited by some jerk with an AP in a bag?21:22
dfsfgasdI'm a target21:22
wxlthen follow the above instructions21:22
dfsfgasdI have a problem with some group21:22
KamilionThen stop using computers.21:22
dfsfgasdanonymous21:22
wxlat this point the discussion is outside the bounds of lubuntu support21:22
dfsfgasdthey are anonymous21:22
KamilionI'm anonymous.21:22
dfsfgasdbut not anonymous group hacktivist21:22
wxlso i would kindly ask you to continue this conversation elsewhere21:22
wxlgot it, dfsfgasd ?21:23
dfsfgasdI still have questions21:23
wxlquestions about krack, or questions about your lubuntu installation?21:23
KamilionI still have answers for valid support questions.21:23
KamilionKrack can be considered harmless unless you have a physical adversary within range.21:24
dfsfgasdI am targeted21:24
Kamilionupgrade your router with LEDE which already has the 4 way handshake fix.21:24
Kamiliononly one side of the connection needs to be fixed21:24
KamilionAP or client.21:25
Kamilionalso, get rid of any android 6 devices21:25
dfsfgasdI read they can seepasswords21:25
Kamilionor upgrade them to android 721:25
dfsfgasdmy android is 621:25
dfsfgasdthey can see even with VPN connected21:25
wxlany other questions about lubuntu?21:26
Kamilionthen someone can force your phone to use a key of all 00000000000, rendering everything in plaintext even though encryption says it's on.21:26
dfsfgasdis there no safe place online?21:26
Kamilionthat's something you'll have to take up with google or your handset manufacturer, we can't support that21:26
Kamilionthere has never been a safe place online.21:26
wxldfsfgasd: any other questions about lubuntu?21:26
Kamiliondfsfgasd: https://www.theregister.co.uk/2015/08/04/duncan_campbell_christmas_gchq_lecture/   https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qJfFOJVRMNU21:27
KamilionThe only thing I trust these days is openssh. It's one of the few remaining trustworthy protocols.21:28
Kamilionalso, using HTTPS will prevent unencrypted data from leaking even if KRACK is used to attack. (Again, which requires an active adversary with a wireless access point of it's own)21:29
dfsfgasdhttps can still be decrypted21:30
dfsfgasdeven passwords21:30
Kamilion... Well, of course... If it couldn't be decrypted, it would just be meaningless random data.21:31
agaidawxl, Kamilion - please don't forget to sell our famous thin-foil-hats, please21:31
Kamilion... did you spell that right?21:31
Kamilionthin foil?21:31
Kamilionor tin foil?21:31
agaidatin21:31
Kamilionbecause tin foil isn't ferromagnetic21:31
Kamilioncopper foil is what you want21:31
agaidamenno Aluhüte21:31
agaida:P21:32
Kamilionsorry, I don't speak spanish21:32
dfsfgasdI'm hearing voices21:32
KamilionBuy an mp3 player21:32
Kamilionit's okay, the patents have expired now.21:32
cry0xencan we expect a stable version of lxqt release in 18.04?21:35
Kamilioni havn't gotten an answer on that either.21:35
wxlcry0xen: the likelihood increases with time, but nothing's official until it is.21:35
wxlmuch headway was made this last cycle21:36
wxlbut there's still hurdles to overcome21:36
Kamilion... since when has Anonymous been in Shah Alam, Selangor, Malaysia?21:36
dfsfgasdthey have always been one21:37
wxlif you two want to talk security, please move elsewhere21:37
wxlthis is the last time i ask nicely21:37
dfsfgasdwait21:37
Kamilionokay, I am now three inches to the left.21:37
wxlyou can join #lubuntu-offtopic and discuss it there, for example21:38
wxlbut not here.21:38
Kamilionpretty sure I'm already in there21:38
Kamilionprobably detached from znc though21:38
Kamilionhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DNO6G4ApJQY   https://encyclopediadramatica.rs/Buy_A_Dog , because that's the only thing that'll save you from anonymous.21:40
cry0xenwxl, isn't it efficient to focus on lxqt solely... rather than focusing on both? I dont have any coding skill but to my understanding, updating qt version takes a lot of bug fixing... I noticed with a software and it was a mess... the whole OS is going to be huge ....21:40
* Kamilion wanders off on internets21:40
Kamilioncry0xen: lxqt's a different group of devs21:40
Kamilionthe list of names between lxde and lxqt is not identical21:41
wxlcry0xen: qt is no more problematic than gtk21:41
cry0xenaah..21:41
Kamilionand we still have to maintain the packages in the repository either way21:41
Kamilionplus lubuntu's a lot more than just the lxde packages.21:42
KamilionThemes, default settings, xsessions...21:42
cry0xenthats why...21:42
agaidacry0xen: and you know the true words about stable - There's this special biologist word we use for "stable". It's "dead". ~ Jack Cohen21:42
Kamilionsome of that can be reused; some of it must be remade (eg, some theme elements, in some cases)21:42
Kamilionmore recent versions have had hi-dpi theme elements included, for example.21:43
agaidacry0xen: but one can expect a more polished version of LXQt in 18.04 - with less rough edges and better integrated21:43

mr-daymorning guys23:03
Kamilionohayo23:04
mr-day;)23:04
mr-daybtw guys i got issue on my flash firefox plugin23:04
wxlyou haven't heard about the flash vulnerability?23:04
wxli wouldn't even bother with it at this point, frankly.23:04
mr-daywxl: yup i head read about that23:05
mr-daybut i used some site who required to run flash23:05
wxlthen don't use it! XD23:05
wxlit's on its way out23:05
wxlthey've already called it discontinued23:05
mr-daymy issue it always crash when i right click on their website who required flash23:06
mr-daywxl: haha yeah23:06
mr-dayso how i can run it perfectly without flash 0,o23:06
wxlask the website23:07
wxlthey're doing you a disservice by forcing you to use it23:07
Kamilionuse shumway23:07
mr-dayhah lol23:07
mr-dayKamilion: what is it23:07
Kamilionhttp://mozilla.github.io/shumway/23:07
mr-daynice will go there23:08
Kamilionworks great for older flash stuff like albinoblacksheep.com's collection of flash3-flash7 swfs23:08
Kamilionwxl: yeah, practicefusion requires flash, and the hilarious thing is, they were targeting doctors with ipads23:09
mr-daysounds good ^^ ok will trying it now23:09
Kamilionto extort extra money out of said doctors; they offered a subscription remote desktop service, purely to allow a single flash app to run on an ipad.23:09
Kamilionhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Practice_Fusion23:10
* Kamilion was the jerk that had to get said subscription remote desktop service working23:11
Kamilionall so they could have some styled buttons in their forms23:12
mr-dayi had installed shumway23:15
mr-daybtw how to configure it out, is it automatically?23:16
