[00:58] <ibmr50e> which website is official?? lubuntu net or lubuntu me?
[00:58] <tsimonq2> lubuntu.me
[00:59] <tsimonq2> We're currently in the process of getting the other one back
[01:00] <bobsmith> wxl?
[01:03] <wxl> yes bobsmith
[01:05] <bobsmith> yo! 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] <wxl> you got to find the lowest common denominator. if they all have the same requirements, then it doesn't matter.
[01:07] <bobsmith> ok.  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?
[01:09] <bobsmith> the 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 head
[01:09] <wxl> yep
[01:10] <wxl> remember that the MBR format is limited to 4 partitions
[01:10] <bobsmith> lol.  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...
[01:11] <bobsmith> the moral of the first story, is dont download to the root!
[01:11] <ibmr50e> yo you guys will make lubuntu forum?
[01:12] <bobsmith> it was a script, so i didnt know where it was downloading until i found root filled to the gills.
[01:12] <wxl> ibmr50e: i believe there are some lubuntu forums on the ubuntu forums. i generally don't bother with forums. the mailing list is there, though.
[01:13] <ibmr50e> on ubuntu forums they only have some weird tagging system
[01:13] <ibmr50e> ill try facebook groups thought hehe
[01:14] <bobsmith> thanks agian, wxl.  till next time. (when I have some fresh questions for ya ;)
[01:17] <ibmr50e> you guys have marketing galleries but aint sellin nothin?
[01:18] <wxl> you mean our promotional images?
[01:18] <wxl> i.e. lenny, our mascot?
[01:18] <ibmr50e> ye ye
[01:18] <wxl> yep not selling anything
[01:19] <ibmr50e> there are t-shirt images but no things for sell? or i cnt find
[01:19] <wxl> oh yeah, nope, not for sale
[01:19] <ibmr50e> so how you make monies
[01:19] <wxl> you can use that to get someone to print one for you
[01:19] <wxl> we don't
[01:20] <ibmr50e> these ubuntu guys even sell cycling bibs hehe
[01:20] <ibmr50e> you guys real OG though not sellin
[01:24] <ibmr50e> i dont like this mpPaint app you include guys
[01:25] <ibmr50e> i dont know how to do things, and translation is horrible
[01:25] <ibmr50e> you guys know an equivalent?
[01:26] <wxl> there's nothing else that's as lightweight
[01:27] <wxl> you could always use gimp
[01:27] <ibmr50e> some guys recommend pinta ill try that
[01:27] <ibmr50e> gimp too heavy i think
[01:29] <ibmr50e> im reading your Lubuntu Meeting - April 2017
[01:29] <ibmr50e> so you guys dropped alsa?
[01:30] <ibmr50e> not cool by mozilla not cool
[01:37] <lynorian> yeah it was mozillas decision not ours but sound with firefox is improtant for say anyone wanted to watch youtube videos or podcasts on a website or other things.
[02:27] <bobsmith> wxl- you're probably ready to shoot me, but... thinking i will change /home partition from primary to logical... then get on with laying out more logical partitions.  but how to change from primary to logical? I was reading up on "FixParts" but ...
[02:28] <bobsmith> it put me to sleep
[02:28] <bobsmith> I am at the coffee shop... maybe I need caffine...
[10:22] <markscurvyfox> hey there all
[10:22] <markscurvyfox> I have one question regarding Lubuntu
[10:23] <markscurvyfox> Does Lubuntu 17.10 ships with LXQt environment? If not, will v18 do?
[10:56] <ibmr50e> yo lubuntu guys
[10:56] <ibmr50e> you only provide lightweight software and its great okay
[10:56] <ibmr50e> but firefox is a default browser, is it really light enough?
[11:08] <ibmr50e> and btw. audacious runs great, why did you guys decide to add it?
[22:17] <ibmr50e> yo lubuntu guys
[22:17] <tsimonq2> hey
[22:17] <ibmr50e> you now share GNOME software center with ubuntu right
[22:17] <tsimonq2> yep
[22:18] <ibmr50e> ye but it looks weird cause there are many GNOME addons and GNOME things inside
[22:18] <ibmr50e> and im never sure if they're compatibile
[22:52] <tannedin> new here... accidently joined the dev channel... but trying to figure out an odd issue if anyone is available
[22:55] <tsimonq2> !question | tannedin
[22:55] <tsimonq2> :)
[22:59] <tannedin> my 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.
[23:02] <ibmr50e> how old is this install?
[23:03] <tannedin> been having it running and updated for about a year.  last manual update was about two weeks ago, have automatic updates disabled
[23:04] <test112456> Does anybody know where to find themes for lubuntu?
[23:05] <tsimonq2> test112456: You'd just be looking for LXDE themes and/or GTK themes.
[23:05] <test112456> I just search for those?
[23:06] <tsimonq2> Yes.
[23:06] <test112456> ok thanks
[23:06] <tsimonq2> np
[23:08] <tannedin> other 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...
[23:09] <tsimonq2> Not sure tannedin
[23:09] <tsimonq2> wxl?
[23:17] <wxl> yessss?
[23:23] <wxl> is you're asking me about tannedin i would suggest tracing the processes. SOMETHING is breaking. perhaps too little memory or something?
[23:26] <tannedin> strace 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 help
