| yukip | any links to lubuntu next? lxqt | 01:47 |
|---|---|---|
| tsimonq2 | Not particularly, because Lubuntu Next is no longer a thing. | 01:48 |
| tsimonq2 | We're switching for 18.10. | 01:48 |
| tsimonq2 | So Lubuntu Next is now Lubuntu. :P | 01:48 |
| yukip | oh, cool | 01:48 |
| yukip | thanks | 01:48 |
| tsimonq2 | No problem. | 01:48 |
| tsimonq2 | yukip: There's some rough edges, but http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/lubuntu/daily-live/current/ | 01:48 |
| holywater | "This image is oversized (which is a bug) and will not fit onto a standard 703MiB CD. However, you may still test it using a DVD, a USB drive, or a virtual machine." | 04:48 |
| tsimonq2 | holywater: Yeah, I need to talk to someone about fixing that. | 04:49 |
| tsimonq2 | Thanks though. | 04:49 |
| holywater | oh, there are plans to make lubuntu fit back into a CD? | 04:49 |
| tsimonq2 | Nope. | 04:49 |
| tsimonq2 | Well, *maybe*. I have an idea along those lines for down the road....... | 04:49 |
| holywater | also, is there anyone i should talk to, regarding tweaking configuration files? | 04:50 |
| holywater | mostly things like setting default font to ubuntu' | 04:51 |
| holywater | s font and the like | 04:51 |
| tsimonq2 | You've come to the right place :) | 04:51 |
| tsimonq2 | holywater: Can I PM you? (You have +g set.) | 04:53 |
| holywater | unset | 04:55 |
| tsimonq2 | Thanks | 04:57 |
| Unit193 | Side note: You can just /accept tsimonq2 to recieve PMs from him, or you can simply message him first. | 05:08 |
| hehehe | hi | 08:53 |
| hehehe | who here uses linuxium ? | 08:53 |
| tsimonq2 | Hey, how ya doin'? | 08:53 |
| hehehe | i am fine | 08:54 |
| hehehe | thinking how to install lubuntu 18.04 on lenovo 100s | 08:54 |
| tsimonq2 | Hm, what's Linuxium? | 08:54 |
| tsimonq2 | Oh nice. :) | 08:54 |
| hehehe | it is a giant script sh :) to respin iso and add 32 bit uefi boot etc | 08:55 |
| tsimonq2 | Oh, that's interesting. | 08:55 |
| tsimonq2 | Got a link? | 08:55 |
| tsimonq2 | (I'm Lubuntu's Release Manager and for 18.10 we're going to use Calamares; maybe we can incorporate some stuff in there.) | 08:55 |
| hehehe | http://www.linuxium.com.au/how-tos/creatingpersonalizedubuntumintanddebianisosforintelminipcs | 08:56 |
| hehehe | would be awesome | 08:56 |
| tsimonq2 | hehehe: So, how common are these devices? | 08:57 |
| hehehe | lenovo 100s very common | 08:57 |
| tsimonq2 | Can you buy one off the shelf today? How old are we talking? | 08:58 |
| hehehe | yes you can | 08:58 |
| tsimonq2 | Interesting. | 08:58 |
| hehehe | I have bought one 5 months ago | 08:58 |
| tsimonq2 | I will admit; this is not my area of expertise. But I'll look into it. | 08:58 |
| hehehe | for argos for 85 GBP :) | 08:58 |
| tsimonq2 | :D | 08:58 |
| hehehe | from | 08:58 |
| hehehe | 4 cores 64 bit atom processor :D | 08:59 |
| hehehe | runs pretty fast on lubuntu | 08:59 |
| tsimonq2 | ooh | 08:59 |
| hehehe | there is ready made ISO for ubuntu http://linuxminipcs.com/isos | 09:00 |
| hehehe | but not for lubuntu :D | 09:00 |
| tsimonq2 | Do you know this guy/gal? | 09:00 |
| tsimonq2 | (The person who wrote this.) | 09:00 |
| hehehe | plus with his script you can install lubuntu on intel sticks I think and all kind of mini pcs :) | 09:00 |
| hehehe | not personally | 09:01 |
| hehehe | however he seems to be active | 09:01 |
| tsimonq2 | These seem like some hacks :P but if they work, more power to ya. | 09:01 |
| hehehe | they do work :D | 09:02 |
| hehehe | and what it does - lenovo changes bios by default so it will only boot windows :D | 09:02 |
| hehehe | however now you can boot and install linux on them | 09:02 |
| tsimonq2 | Right. | 09:03 |
| hehehe | yes would be fun to chat with Ian on irc - the guy behind isorespin | 09:03 |
| hehehe | I can ask him if he is on freenode sometimes :) | 09:04 |
| tsimonq2 | I'm on freenode, OFTC, and GeekShed; PMs are open, if he could shoot me a message. :) | 09:04 |
| hehehe | https://plus.google.com/+IanMORRISON :) | 09:05 |
| hehehe | some wild stuff | 09:05 |
| tsimonq2 | For sure. | 09:06 |
| hehehe | tsimonq2: whereabouts are you based? | 09:07 |
| tsimonq2 | hehehe: Wisconsin, USA. | 09:07 |
| hehehe | nice | 09:08 |
| tsimonq2 | Doing some late night hacking :D | 09:08 |
| hehehe | haha | 09:08 |
| hehehe | I fell asleep on a sofa last night doing it | 09:08 |
| tsimonq2 | hehe | 09:08 |
| hehehe | tsimonq2: also back to my lubuntu issue :) I did respin 18.04 with 32 boot loader and atom support - however stick is yet to be detected - it seems I am missing something obvious | 09:10 |
| hehehe | what could it be... :) | 09:10 |
| tsimonq2 | I'm not sure. | 09:10 |
| tsimonq2 | I've never personally worked with that hardware; your best bet would probably be to try #ubuntu (those guys and gals have tested all sorts of hardware) or talk to Ian. | 09:10 |
| hehehe | tsimonq2: or lets say ubuntu iso will work? is there an easy way to make it lubuntu? | 09:11 |
| tsimonq2 | hehehe: There's more than one way :) | 09:12 |
| hehehe | for example? :) | 09:12 |
| tsimonq2 | sudo apt -y remove ubuntu-desktop^ && sudo apt -y install lubuntu-desktop^ | 09:12 |
| hehehe | yes lightweight desktop | 09:13 |
| hehehe | I have read that lubuntu also uses more lightweight libraries? | 09:13 |
| hehehe | for many things | 09:13 |
| tsimonq2 | If you're willing to do something much more hacky to just strip the install way down: http://askubuntu.com/questions/240346/how-to-keep-only-ubuntu-minimal | 09:13 |
| tsimonq2 | Right, well, 18.04 and previous releases focus on being much more lightweight. | 09:13 |
| tsimonq2 | We use LXDE and many lightweight applications. | 09:14 |
| tsimonq2 | However, with 18.10 and on we're focusing on UX much more. | 09:14 |
| hehehe | cool | 09:14 |
| tsimonq2 | Sure, LXQt is still a very light desktop, and by default we'll keep it minimal, but our goal is to then enable people to Use Their Computer. :) | 09:14 |
| hehehe | haha | 09:14 |
| hehehe | you should look into atom devices | 09:14 |
| hehehe | they are cheap and if there is a ready made iso :) | 09:15 |
| hehehe | more people will be getting into lubuntu | 09:15 |
| tsimonq2 | How cheap are we talking? | 09:15 |
| hehehe | under 200 usd new! :D | 09:16 |
| hehehe | and lightweight | 09:16 |
| tsimonq2 | ooh | 09:16 |
| tsimonq2 | I'll look into it, thanks. | 09:16 |
| hehehe | lightweight netbook + lightweight distro | 09:16 |
| tsimonq2 | hehe | 09:17 |
| hehehe | tsimonq2: https://blog.laurens.xyz/post/Ubuntu-on-Intel-Atom-Device.html Note however that the respinning is done on an Ubuntu distribution itself, as I found that spinning the ISO on an Lubuntu distro results in unbootable ISO's as well. | 09:53 |
| hehehe | hmm | 09:53 |
| hehehe | last time I recall I did respin on ubuntu and it did boot | 09:53 |
| hehehe | now I will get into ubuntu server and re spin there and then I think it will work | 09:54 |
| holywater | hehehe: if it helps, cubic is a good alternative for creating your own lubuntu flavor | 10:30 |
| holywater | https://launchpad.net/cubic | 10:31 |
| holywater | https://askubuntu.com/questions/741753/how-to-use-cubic-to-create-a-custom-ubuntu-live-cd-image | 10:31 |
| hehehe | holywater: cool | 11:59 |
| dzho | neat | 13:13 |
| hehehe | re spinned on ubuntu might work now :D | 13:46 |
| hehehe | downloading iso from ubuntu server | 13:46 |
| hehehe | gosh | 14:23 |
| hehehe | black screen | 14:23 |
| hehehe | at least boots | 14:23 |
| hehehe | :D | 14:23 |
| hehehe | guys how come no one here uses linuxium? :D | 14:23 |
| hehehe | I feel its 5 min question | 14:24 |
| hehehe | and I spent 10 hrs on it | 14:24 |
| hehehe | :D | 14:24 |
| hehehe | o well I will simply pay someone will be quicker | 14:24 |
| hehehe | ok works | 14:56 |
| hehehe | nomodeset :D | 14:56 |
| hehehe | how come by default encryption option is greyed out | 15:39 |
| hehehe | on lubuntu when live usb is booted | 15:39 |
| ilyaigpetrov | These are input fields in Empathy and Gajim. How may I fix it? Tried purging and upgrading. https://usercontent.irccloud-cdn.com/file/WZnfOLaA/empathy-gajim.png | 16:17 |
| ilyaigpetrov | maybe it's because I've install ibus recently, because I wanted ctrl+u to be working | 16:19 |
| ilyaigpetrov | which input method was the default? | 16:20 |
| ilyaigpetrov | s/ctrl+shift+u | 16:20 |
| ilyaigpetrov | setting input method to None solved the problem, but ctrl+shift+u doesn't work | 16:25 |
