[01:16] <ardmncK1237> Hello, I want to install xfce4-mouse-settings but apt can only find the whole xfce4-settings. Why? Thanks in advance.
[01:17] <krytarik> Because it's part of the package.
[01:18] <ardmncK1237> Ah ok. So xfce4-mouse-settings can't be installed separately? I thought it was modular
[01:20] <krytarik> Well, it's a separate binary, yes - but packaging each binary individually...
[01:22] <ardmncK1237> Ok ok. However, thanks. I will just install the whole package. I was just trying to understand if it was me or the package just wasn't there.
[01:23] <ardmncK1237> Thanks bye
[01:24] <ardmncK1237> *or if the binary just wasn't there.
[01:24] <krytarik> Why would you need it for LXDE btw?
[01:28] <ardmncK1237> I need it because I want to disable the touchpad on my laptop. Lxde doesn't have that. That's actually the only reason why I'm installing that part of xfce.
[01:29] <ardmncK1237> For all the rest I love and use lxde, tho. It's so fast.
[01:29] <krytarik> So you tried this before and it worked?
[01:35] <ardmncK1237> You mean it I've ever tried to install xfce4-settings separately? Nope. But I thought it could be done.
[01:36] <ardmncK1237> Or do you mean if xfce4-mouse-settings did work before to disable the touchpad? Cuz well I just found out now that it doesn't work now. Why?
[01:36] <krytarik> Yes, I mean use the settings app of one desktop environment for another.
[01:36] <ardmncK1237> *You mean if I've ever
[01:36] <krytarik> That's why.
[01:36] <ardmncK1237> Oh
[01:37] <ardmncK1237> Then no I've never tried that
[01:37] <ardmncK1237> I didn't know it wouldn't work for another DE :/
[01:37] <ardmncK1237> Why is that?
[01:38] <krytarik> Because each one uses its own settings daemon.
[01:38] <ardmncK1237> Oh ok. How can I disable the touchpad on lxde then?
[01:38] <ardmncK1237> Disable permanently
[01:39] <ardmncK1237> It uses synaptics btw here
[01:39] <krytarik> There are numerous suggestions and ways on it posted on the interwebs.
[01:39] <ardmncK1237> Ok. I will have a look.
[01:40] <krytarik> And every time the question comes up, I again have to go look for the one I deem most proper.. >_>
[02:06] <ardmncK1237> Ok. I added 'synclient=MaxTapTime=0' into Autostart of LXsession configuration. It works.
[02:07] <ardmncK1237> *'synclient MaxTapTime=0'
[02:08] <ardmncK1237> (I actually wanted to disable the tap-to-click, not the whole touchpad's functionality).
[10:15] <ANAND> Greetings, I'd like to know whether Lubuntu 18.04 uses LXQt. If not, when will LXQt become main-stream?
[10:16] <diogenes_> wishwanathan anand?
[10:28] <ANAND> diogenes_, haha nope :)
[10:29] <diogenes_> ok :(
[10:30] <ANAND> Even better! (TM)
[11:10] <ChunkzZ> is there an app that can view my specs on a laptop? I just bought a samsung laptop and want to know if it's ddr3 and want to check other specs and so on.
[11:10] <ChunkzZ> I installed lubuntu 18 straight away on it.
[11:12] <diogenes_> ChunkzZ, run in terminal: inxi -Fxrc0
[11:15] <diogenes_> ChunkzZ, to find out memory type and stuff you run: sudo inxi -m
[11:15] <ChunkzZ> diogenes_, it says everything except the ram lol
[11:16] <diogenes_> i just gave you the command
[11:16] <diogenes_> sudo inxi -m
[11:16] <ChunkzZ> thanks! :D
[11:16] <diogenes_> yw
[11:16] <ChunkzZ> it says I have 4 slots, doubt that's correct?
[11:17] <ChunkzZ> I'll have to google, thanks diogenes_ :P
[11:18] <diogenes_> ChunkzZ, 4 slots it means you have only slots to insert the memory into, but you might have only one or two memory cards
[11:18] <diogenes_> that's a different story
[11:19] <ChunkzZ> yeah figured. :p
[11:20] <ChunkzZ> nice one though diogenes_ :)
[11:20] <diogenes_> indeed nice tool
[11:20] <ChunkzZ> I've emailed it myself so I don;t have to ask again
[11:21] <diogenes_> always take notes of commands and store them in a folder
[11:25] <ChunkzZ> yeah rather than that though i just email it myself, quicker and easier.
[11:25] <ChunkzZ> I'm shocked on how good lubuntu is with this pc tbh. it's only an i5 2nd gen and 2gb ram :P
[11:26] <ChunkzZ> gonna put an ssd in it and more ram
[11:26] <ChunkzZ> £20 from a local carboot.
[11:26] <ChunkzZ> needed a clean though
[11:26] <ChunkzZ> lol
[11:26] <ChunkzZ> anyway, thanks again diogenes_ you're a legend. /back to lurking
[11:27] <diogenes_> ChunkzZ, you're welcome :)
[11:28] <ANAND> Long live diogenes_ the legend!
[11:28] <diogenes_> ANAND, LOL hehe
[11:29] <ANAND> :P
[12:28] <testdr> hello, i checked the irc-logs and there was no entry about missing cpu-clock-frequency part of the indicator taskbar tool -- did i miss something? This tool was available in lubuntu-17.04, but seems now gone.
[14:32] <antis> Upgrade from 16.04/17.10 to 18.04 failing? -> "do-release-upgrade -d" runs into "unresolvable problem"
[15:25] <n-iCe> I installed lubuntu in a different way, minimal.iso selected minimal lxde desktop, is it lubuntu? haha
[16:24] <YADW1> Hello! I'm on lubuntu-desktop 16.04.4 LTS and I'm trying to make an external monitor work properly in extend mode. By now it just displays my desktop background (the center is wrong but bruh) and I can drag windows between the primary and the secondary monitor. The latter is missing panels, and oddly enough when I right click the lxde menu appears instead of the one of lubuntu
[16:25] <YADW1> Arandr is not of much help
[16:26] <YADW1> Can anybody suggest me what should I do to make it work in the right way?
[17:11] <laptop> does lubuntu 18.04 contain better graphics drivers
[17:11] <wxl> 18.04 does include updates to the kernel, so quite possibly
[17:11] <wxl> they certainly shouldn't be getting worse
[17:14] <laptop> what about for the ancient intel gma 4500
[17:14] <laptop> i am wondering if there is anyway to implement those drivers for 18.04 for 16.04
[17:15] <n-iCe> I installed minimal.iso and lxde package
[17:15] <n-iCe> but looks different
[17:23] <ChunkzZ> any idea when lubuntu-next is going to be released??
[17:24] <ChunkzZ> 18.04 looks the same here n-iCe, using lubuntu/minimal too.
[17:24] <wxl> lubuntu as lxqt-only should be released next cycle
[17:25] <ChunkzZ> wxl, next cycle? what does that mean?
[17:26] <wxl> ChunkzZ: next version
[17:26] <krytarik> October this year.
[17:26] <ChunkzZ> next version? next versiob od what?
[17:26] <ChunkzZ> of*
 18.10.
[17:26] <krytarik> Lubuntu...
 Lubuntu 18.10 is LXQt.
[17:27] <ChunkzZ> 18.10 oh :P should've said that lol
[17:27] <ChunkzZ> I thought it'd be better if LXQt was released under LTS...
[17:27] <ChunkzZ> no?
 No.
 We need to iron out things before releasing to users.
 So it's the opposite.
[17:28] <ChunkzZ> ahh alright :)
[17:29] <JohnDoe_71Rus> https://i.imgur.com/hYYD6F3.jpg 18.04 lxqt netinstall. so sad
[17:30] <ChunkzZ> nice old monitor JohnDoe_71Rus :P
[17:35] <JohnDoe_71Rus> i have more old. Nec 1535vi  2001-2 year production :)
[17:38] <JohnDoe_71Rus> so they don't know window manager and ask user
 No, it's a bug.
[21:47] <littlegirl> Hi I have a question about lubuntu 18.04 installation
[21:48] <littlegirl> is there anyone who can answer me?
[21:48] <diogenes_> !ask
[21:58] <littlegirl> Ok sorry I was not aware of the rules. the problem is that I downloaded lubuntu-18.04-desktop-amd64.iso and tried to install it on virtualbox, but when I try to install lubuntu, the desktop does not load normally and I encounter a mixed desktop that I cannot do anything with it. here it the screenshot: https://pasteboard.co/HjYQWCj.png
[21:59] <diogenes_> littlegirl, try open devices and install gues additions
[22:00] <diogenes_> then reboot the VM
[22:06] <littlegirl> but I recieved this error: Could not mount the media/drive 'C:\Program Files\Oracle\VirtualBox/VBoxGuestAdditions.iso' (VERR_PDM_MEDIA_LOCKED).
[22:07] <wxl> this sounds like you're having a problem with virtualbox rather than lubuntu
[22:07] <littlegirl> received*
[22:07] <diogenes_> so your VM is on windows?
[22:07] <diogenes_> yep, virtualbox is faulty
[22:08] <littlegirl> but there is no problem in using lubuntu 17.10.1 :|
[22:08] <littlegirl> yes it's installed on windows
[22:08] <wxl> that said we do occassionally run into weird issues with virtual machines. if you toggle from a tty and back (hold right control and hit f1, then release, then hold right control and hit f7) the iso should behave fine
[22:08] <n-iCe> hi wxl
[22:08] <wxl> hey n-iCe
[22:09] <n-iCe> how are you? do you remember me?
[22:09] <n-iCe> I just bought finally a new laptop.
[22:10] <wxl> i'm good and yes
[22:19] <littlegirl> when I reset the vm the install page appears completely, but when I reset again the same problem occurs. So it seems I have problem using 18.04, so I wanted to ask if I continue to use lubuntu 17.10.1, will there be any problem? I mean will there be any issue because of not upgrading to the latest version? because I'm working on a project on lubuntu and I don't want to lose or damage my data and configuration that I have made on l
[22:19] <wxl> the problem you're experiencing is a graphics issue specific to virtualbox. it doesn't affect our data
[22:20] <wxl> that said, 17.10.1 will continue to be supported, but not as long as 18.04, nor will it have the latest software packages
[22:21] <littlegirl> Ok so I will try to upgrade my virtualbox to the latest version and see if the problem still persists. thank you
[22:21] <wxl> the problem will likely persist but not after you have the system installed
[22:23] <littlegirl> So if I can install the lubuntu 18.04, the problem will be solved?
[22:23] <wxl> yep
[22:23] <littlegirl> ok so I will try again
[22:43] <littlegirl> I could install Lubuntu 18.04 finally. It seems that the problem is solved for now. thank you for ur support :)
[22:44] <diogenes_> and how did you solve it?
[22:46] <littlegirl> I reseted the vm several times and at last the install page appeared. I installed Lubuntu as wxl said and the problem is disappeared for now.
[22:46] <diogenes_> cool
