| laceylaney | Does anyone know if it's possible top hide the process list from htop ?? I only want to show the meter section.... | 08:19 |
| tsimonq2 | I don't think so | 08:19 |
| tsimonq2 | Sorry | 08:19 |
| laceylaney | Just asking because I seen some pics of unix desktops running htop with only the meteres section loaded.... | 08:20 |
| tsimonq2 | Hmm | 08:20 |
| tsimonq2 | I dunno :) | 08:20 |
| laceylaney | ok ^^ | 08:21 |
| laceylaney | ok so app you just have to resize your terminal window until the bottom half is hidden.... | 08:22 |
| ca-on-adam | Hi there, two things: the social media icons at the base of https://lubuntu.me/, with the exception of the RSS feed icon, are all links to social media sites owned by either Google, Facebook or Microsoft, all which are corporations which I feel are not safe to interact with from privacy and freedom standpoints. | 11:32 |
| tsimonq2 | ca-on-adam: We have Mastodon. | 11:33 |
| tsimonq2 | Wordpress won't let us link it there. | 11:33 |
| tsimonq2 | However, we do heavily promote https://lubuntu.me/links which has that boldly listed. | 11:33 |
| tsimonq2 | I mean, it's not like the icons are unclear, correct? :) | 11:34 |
| tsimonq2 | I personally don't have a problem with it, but I get your argument. | 11:34 |
| ca-on-adam | Also, I don't know who to talk to, but I have been granted my sole use of a server by another member of the Ubuntu community, and one of the informal conditions was to use it best I can to help with *buntu projects, but they mentioned Lubuntu specifically. I'm not a programmer but I have a limited amount of experience with QA in the Mageia project and I am very comfortable with the command line. | 11:35 |
| tsimonq2 | I'm the Lubuntu Release Manager and an Ubuntu Developer. :) | 11:35 |
| tsimonq2 | ca-on-adam: amd64 or i386? | 11:36 |
| ca-on-adam | tsimonq2: I will look into Mastodon, as it was already on my radar. But like there are less dangerous networks like Diaspora that I have a profile on, it'd be nice to see a presence there. | 11:36 |
| tsimonq2 | I agree that Mastodon is, well, dangerous... :P | 11:37 |
| tsimonq2 | wxl doesn't agree with me XD | 11:37 |
| tsimonq2 | ca-on-adam: But if you want to create a Lubuntu account there, give us the username and password just in case you go MIA, and maintain it yourself, I have no problem with that. | 11:38 |
| tsimonq2 | ca-on-adam: I can get you high-quality artwork for the logo if you want. | 11:38 |
| ca-on-adam | tsimonq2: the server is 64-bit, fully hypervised so I can swap kernels. | 11:39 |
| ca-on-adam | tsimonq2: but I've got some 32-bit hardware sitting around the house if 32-bit testing is needed more. | 11:39 |
| tsimonq2 | ca-on-adam: https://lubuntu.me/this-week-in-lubuntu-development-7/ | 11:40 |
| tsimonq2 | ca-on-adam: The real story behind that is I no longer have access to real hardware i386 machines. | 11:40 |
| tsimonq2 | ca-on-adam: So I don't feel comfortable maintaining it unless some people are willing to step up and test on real hardware, and fix platform-specific bugs,. | 11:41 |
| * ca-on-adam catching up... | 11:41 | |
| tsimonq2 | No problem :) | 11:41 |
| tsimonq2 | ca-on-adam: The tl;dr is, if you'd like to help, the main place to pay attention to is #lubuntu-devel. There we post calls for testing, talk about implementation details, etc. If you need any help with anything, please do feel free to reach out with questions. :) | 11:44 |
| * ca-on-adam also in race condition to move old stuff out of hard drive while torrenting Lubuntu & not enough free space | 11:45 | |
| tsimonq2 | Ah. :) | 11:46 |
| ca-on-adam | tsimonq2: I have at least 3 Intel P4s, a P2 and P3, 1 ASUS netbook with atom CPU locked-in as 32bit, 1 imac G3 and a powermac G5 at my volunteer place, I guess the only thing I don't have is an AMD 32-bit computer. | 11:49 |
| tsimonq2 | ca-on-adam: No problem; your help would still be appreciated. | 11:50 |
| ca-on-adam | I had an AMD K6 desktop lying around but I got rid of it as a 'scrap trade' to receive some 64-bit low end systems headed for scrap anyway. | 11:54 |
| ca-on-adam | 350MHz or something like that. | 11:54 |
| lubot5 | <tsimonq2> Which volunteer place is this through, out of curiosity? | 11:55 |
| ca-on-adam | http://planetgeek.ca | 12:03 |
| ca-on-adam | I also volunteered at Toronto Free-Net for a number of years, but not anymore and that's a rant best saved for an offtopic channel :) | 12:06 |
| egy | hello lubuntu. I have a text file containing ascii data, however pcman recongizes it as "GTK+ Builder" and not as ascii | 12:11 |
| egy | also, I create a plain text document and just type "ifconfig" as content, save the file, and then pcman recongizes it as an audio file (SoundTracker Amiga) | 12:12 |
| tsimonq2 | ca-on-adam: Ah nice :) | 12:15 |
| tsimonq2 | egy: These are certainly edge cases... | 12:16 |
| egy | my first text file that turned rouge (the gtk+ builder) is caused by some txt related to "networking" | 12:18 |
| egy | like dig, tracepath, traceroute, ...etc. | 12:19 |
| egy | I manually traced the issue when it was like 20 lines long, and I found that lines beginning with "ifconfig" or containing net addresses (192.126....) causes it to turn rogue | 12:20 |
| egy | I prefixed "ifconfig" with some ## and put the arguments below it | 12:20 |
| egy | but now as I am typing more stuff in the file, it turned again rogue again (gtk+ builder) | 12:20 |
| egy | hope that shed any light on any issue | 12:21 |
| ca-on-adam | egy: if you're willing to adopt a non Linux-y habit, I've done pretty well by appending .txt to text/ASCII files and it seems, by way of friendly attitudes toward Windows users, to respect that. | 13:04 |
| ca-on-adam | "it" being Thunar, pcmanfm, Nautilus/Caja, etc. | 13:05 |
| egy | ca-on-adam: you're absolutely right :) | 13:08 |
| egy | i'll append .txt for these roguelike files | 13:09 |
