bobsmithyo! lets just say i want to put 3 different OS's on on HDD.  How would I partition that? which partitions to make primary? does it even matter?01:05
wxlyou got to find the lowest common denominator. if they all have the same requirements, then it doesn't matter.01:05
bobsmithok.  when I installed the first, I followed that ubuntu guide and the only primary partition is swap.  that doesnt matter either?  i already asked you this, didnt I?01:07
bobsmiththe last time I did multiple boot, I had a root partition get filled up when downloading a bunch of developer stuff which turned into GB's...  stuff for building my own image files, compiling from source, etc.  way over my head01:09
wxlyep01:09
wxlremember that the MBR format is limited to 4 partitions01:10
bobsmithlol.  alreighty, yup.  sorry to bother you about it again.  You did give me some reading homework, and I haven;t gotten to all of it yet...01:10
bobsmiththe moral of the first story, is dont download to the root!01:11
ibmr50eyo you guys will make lubuntu forum?01:11
bobsmithit was a script, so i didnt know where it was downloading until i found root filled to the gills.01:12

markscurvyfoxDoes Lubuntu 17.10 ships with LXQt environment? If not, will v18 do?10:23
ibmr50eyo lubuntu guys10:56
ibmr50eyou only provide lightweight software and its great okay10:56
ibmr50ebut firefox is a default browser, is it really light enough?10:56

ibmr50eyo lubuntu guys22:17
tsimonq2hey22:17

tannedinnew here... accidently joined the dev channel... but trying to figure out an odd issue if anyone is available22:52
tsimonq2!question | tannedin22:55
ubottutannedin: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) See also !patience22:55
tsimonq2:)22:55
tannedinmy current lubuntu install is starting about half of its services or human interacted application launch.  For example: bar shortcut for firefox, desktop shortcut, or command line for 'firefox' has no result.  Attempted installing "Chromium" with the same problem.  Terminal opens from desktop shortcut.  GUI package managers do not, however apt and aptitude work.22:59
ibmr50ehow old is this install?23:02
tannedinbeen having it running and updated for about a year.  last manual update was about two weeks ago, have automatic updates disabled23:03
test112456Does anybody know where to find themes for lubuntu?23:04
tsimonq2test112456: You'd just be looking for LXDE themes and/or GTK themes.23:05
test112456I just search for those?23:05
tsimonq2Yes.23:06
test112456ok thanks23:06
tsimonq2np23:06
tannedinother details: firefox via the command line has zero output.  ps aux | grep firefox only returns the process query.  tried moving the .mozilla folder, uninstall with a purge, and reinstalling... still nothing...23:08
tsimonq2Not sure tannedin23:09
tsimonq2wxl?23:09
wxlyessss?23:17
=== edk is now known as demiurge
wxlis you're asking me about tannedin i would suggest tracing the processes. SOMETHING is breaking. perhaps too little memory or something?23:23
tannedinstrace firefox and strace synaptic spit out about 10 terminal pages worth of sand that i'm sifting through. was hoping for something a bit less... labour intensive, but if thats what needs to be done.  thanks for the help23:26
