[00:54] <tsimonq2> nope
[01:00] <TaZeR> where do you download 18.04 from?
[01:00] <Unit193> Not released yet.
[01:00] <TaZeR> i used to have this ftp with all the development releases but i cant find them
[01:01] <Unit193> http://cdimage.ubuntu.com is where the daily builds are kept.
[01:01] <TaZeR> thanks
[02:25] <Wabba> hi! picked up a kind of crap PC with 1.6ghz processor, will lubuntu work for this?
[02:26] <tsimonq2> Wabba: There's only one way to find out ;)
[02:26] <Wabba> what are the minimum requirements for it? I couldnt find them
[02:26] <parhelia> could it be a AMD E-350?...
[02:27] <tsimonq2> I'd say between 512 and 1024 MB of RAM
[02:27] <Wabba> it is an Intel Celeron N3050
[02:27] <Wabba> 4gb of ram
[02:27] <parhelia> right... you want lubuntu
[02:28] <tsimonq2> Right
[02:28] <Wabba> that was my thoughts
[02:29] <Wabba> thanks guys! I appreciate it
[09:54] <yoot> hello guys I have installed lubuntu. It's great but wifi doesn't connect. what should I do?
[11:00] <needzahelpPLZ> anyone on who can help me figure out how to make Xubuntu 16.04 LTS work with HDMI splitter? i have 2 computers connected one is running osx, which works no matter how many times i switch over, and the one running xubuntu says imediately no signal after i switch, also on the same computer if i run it with windows there is no such issue, so its definetely not hardware related, thx for any and all help in advance
[11:16] <ibmr50e> Yo guys. I'm trying to test lxqt so I downloaded Lubuntu Next 18.04 x86 image and tried to run a Live CD, but everytime I'm asked for a login and a password and neither 'ubuntu' nor 'lubuntu' seem to work. Tested MD5 image and tried on two PCs.
[12:31] <lubot> <tsimonq2> @ibmr50e, lubuntu-next
[12:34] <yoot> Hello I've installed Lubuntu 17.10 I can't connect the internet. Why?
[12:38] <hateball> yoot: after trying to connect, can you run "dmesg" ?
[12:38] <hateball> see if it complains about something
[12:39] <yoot> no nothing
[12:42] <yoot> does lubuntu need drivers?
[12:43] <yoot> It's a wifi problem. I can see my modem but can't connect.
[12:43] <hateball> yoot: well depending on chipset you may need to install additional binary blobs
[12:44] <yoot> I have MSI MEGABOOK M670
[12:44] <hateball> yoot: if you run "ubuntu-drivers devices" is there anything listed there?
[12:45] <hateball> yoot: you can usually find your wifi chipset with "lspci -k" or "lsusb" depending what bus it's connected to
[12:47] <yoot> I'll try.

[21:08] <ibmr50e> yo guys
[21:08] <ibmr50e> i installed lxqt on top of lubuntu 17.10
[21:08] <ibmr50e> and now i have many old lxde gtk apps
[21:08] <ibmr50e> how do i remove them to avoid confusion?
[21:09] <wxl> meaning e.g. lxpanel or meaning, e.g. abiword?
[21:10] <ibmr50e> at least those lxpanel things ye
[21:10] <ibmr50e> but abiword is replaced by juffed right?
[21:11] <wxl> it could be considered an alternative
[21:12] <wxl> but replacement is a bad word
[21:12] <wxl> i mean for that matter lxpanel-qt is not a replacement of lxpanel
[21:13] <wxl> which is why they can both exist
[21:13] <ibmr50e> ye but i wont be using lxpanel now right cause of the switch
[21:14] <ibmr50e> and now i have a mess when running apps from terminal or from menu start
[21:14] <ibmr50e> cause theres pcman and pcmanqt you know what im sayin
[21:14] <wxl> so you'd need to remove them one by one
[21:14] <ibmr50e> wow
[21:14] <ibmr50e> okay
[21:14] <ibmr50e> so when you guys made lxqt you didnt use any old apps right
[21:14] <ibmr50e> everything new
[21:14] <wxl> you can try to remove lubuntu-core or lubuntu-desktop but there are other things that might cause you difficulty
[21:15] <wxl> we don't make lxqt. lxqt does
[21:15] <ibmr50e> ye ye
[21:15] <ibmr50e> apt-get removing lubuntu core and desktop should be safe ?
[21:15] <ibmr50e> can i apt-get remove lxde too?
[21:15] <wxl> well actually come to think of it, that will just remove the indexes.
[21:15] <wxl> yeah, you really should just go line by line through it all
[21:16] <wxl> here's all the important metapackages for you to dig through:
[21:16] <wxl> https://packages.ubuntu.com/artful/lubuntu-desktop
[21:16] <wxl> https://packages.ubuntu.com/artful/lubuntu-core
[21:17] <wxl> https://packages.ubuntu.com/artful/lubuntu-gtk-core
[21:17] <wxl> https://packages.ubuntu.com/artful/lubuntu-gtk-desktop
[21:19] <ibmr50e> thank you
[21:21] <ibmr50e> do you remember leafpad alternative? wxl
[21:23] <wxl> ibmr50e: as i'm sure you know, the lxqt version of lubuntu is not complete, mostly because of not having decided on the apps. you may want to look here http://phab.lubuntu.me/T14
[21:23] <ibmr50e> kk imma take a look
[21:32] <ibmr50e> wxl what does it mean when someone says about an app that it has 'active' upstream or 'dead' upstream or getting something to work with upstream?
[21:33] <wxl> ibmr50e: lxde/qt is our major upstream. they do the development. (thus the comment we dont' make lxqt)
[21:33] <wxl> ibmr50e: dead upstreams are software projects that appear to have no development happening
