| Robb_ | I'm on Lubuntu 18.10. This is going to be my mom's laptop and I need to create a shorcut on the desktop for her to access LibreOfficeWriter. I don't know how to | 01:05 |
| wxl | Robb_: create a desktop entry and throw it in the desktop folder. make sure to set it as a trusted executable | 01:07 |
| Robb_ | Thank you! | 01:09 |
| wxl | oh here we go https://manual.lubuntu.me/5/5.2/desktop_icons.html | 01:09 |
| aden_ | hey | 03:24 |
| aden_ | so when I right click my menu automatically disappears any help? | 03:25 |
| lubot | <JyotiGomes> Good Morning. Does the Lubuntu 1810 and 1904 have no drivers installed to pick up sound from the microphone? I tried to record a text and did not recognize the sound, as if the microphone did not work. Do I need to install drivers or some app? | 07:36 |
| guiverc_d | what software you were trying to record sound in JyotiGomes? | 07:38 |
| diogenes_ | JyotiGomes, look in pavucontrol > input devices if the microphone is detected and if the sound level is moving | 07:38 |
| guiverc_d | my pavucontrol just says "No application is currently recording audio" | 07:41 |
| diogenes_ | guiverc_d, i mean the input tab | 07:41 |
| diogenes_ | not recording | 07:41 |
| lubot | <JyotiGomes> @guiverc_d [<guiverc_d> what software you were trying to record sound in JyotiGomes?], google docs 😊 | 07:42 |
| guiverc_d | okay sorry was looking at "recording" - in "input devices" i saw nothing till I selected "all input devices" , now yeah it sees I think the background of my 'ping' noise from hexchat | 07:42 |
| lubot | <JyotiGomes> (Photo, 1280x509) https://i.imgur.com/aOd6YEk.jpg google docs 😊 | 07:44 |
| guiverc_d | JyotiGomes: `sudo lshw -C sound` shows what the kernel recognizes as my audio devices; I suspect your issue is this level (kernel modules, but I'm no expert there, #ubuntu may be better but not for telegram I suspect) | 07:44 |
| guiverc_d | I don't know gdocs (outside of text), it could be you have settings restricting use in your browser (if done thru that; i've used the heh-google for searches briefly to play, then disabled it as I didn't like browser having access to my microphone) | 07:47 |
| lubot | <JyotiGomes> After sudo lshw -C sound, the output is: ... *-usb:1 ... description: Video ... product: HP Webcam ... vendor: Chicony Electronics Co.,Ltd. ... physical id: 5 ... bus info: usb@1:5 ... version: 18.14 ... serial: 0x0001 ... capabilities: usb-2.00 ... | 07:47 |

| guiverc_d | !pastebinit |JyotiGomes | 07:48 |
| ubottu | JyotiGomes: pastebinit is the command-line equivalent of !pastebin - Command output, or other text can be redirected to pastebinit, which then reports an URL containing the output - To use pastebinit, install the « pastebinit » package from a package manager - Simple usage: command | pastebinit | 07:48 |
| lubot | <JyotiGomes> ok, my bad, sorry 😊 | 07:49 |
| duga_duga_DIDZ | duga just want to say thank you for creating such an amazing O/S, the Lubuntu 18.10 release is the most beautiful, responsive and perfect Linux distro I have ever seen! | 13:23 |

| cdoublejj | i wonder if 18.04 will ever see a PPC release | 14:24 |
| lubot | <tsimonq2> @cdoublejj [<cdoublejj> i wonder if 18.04 will ever see a PPC release], No, sorry | 15:19 |
| cdoublejj | ah 16.04 LTS still hasa few years ofl ife left in i think | 15:20 |
| lubot | <tsimonq2> Yup | 15:20 |
| WishBoy | why the lubuntu.net is first that lubuntu.me on Google SERP ? | 15:47 |
| lubot | <tsimonq2> @WishBoy [<WishBoy> why the lubuntu.net is first that lubuntu.me on Google SERP ?], There's nothing we can do about it. | 16:15 |
| lubot | <tsimonq2> We've tried contacting Google to no avail | 16:15 |
| WishBoy | hum... | 16:15 |
| lubot | <tsimonq2> Lubuntu.me is official though | 16:15 |
| cdoublejj | and lubuntu.com is parked | 16:16 |
| lubot | <tsimonq2> Yeeep. | 16:16 |
| teward | wow, parked for $7,000 o.O | 17:52 |
| teward | that's insane. | 17:52 |
| teward | (I was curious heh) | 17:52 |
| genii | We need to come to some international accord on domain squatting | 18:38 |
| === pavlushka is now known as Guest99001 | ||
| === pavlushka_ is now known as pavlushka | ||
| lubot | <SamuelBanya> 7k for a domain is absolutely insane | 21:10 |
| lubot | <SamuelBanya> We'll need Canoical to step in for that | 21:10 |
| aden_ | Uhh so after I install a .deb package it shows up and everything but when I launch it absolutely nothing happens ive tried minecraft, davici resolve etc nothing launches? Is there like a default app opener I have to install or something? | 21:20 |
| wxl | nope | 21:20 |
| wxl | BUT installing .deb packages are not necessarily a supported way to get software | 21:20 |
| aden_ | well then how do I fix that? | 21:20 |
| wxl | the worst part about it is everyone deals with things differently | 21:20 |
| wxl | so there could be a plethora of ways to run software in general | 21:21 |
| aden_ | well whats one way? | 21:21 |
| wxl | however, there's usually ONE way when it comes to the packages in the repositories | 21:21 |
| wxl | so generally, the rule is, install packages from the repositories | 21:21 |
| aden_ | spit it out man | 21:21 |
| aden_ | uhuh and? | 21:21 |
| aden_ | then what | 21:21 |
| wxl | if you must get software from elsewhere, we don't support it. you generally need to look at their documentation to see how they say to run it | 21:21 |
| aden_ | well its installed and shows up etc. | 21:22 |
| aden_ | just dosnt launch | 21:22 |
| aden_ | doesnt* | 21:22 |
| wxl | what does "shows up" mean? | 21:22 |
| lynorian | in menu? | 21:22 |
| aden_ | when I type in the search bar it shows up | 21:22 |
| aden_ | yep | 21:22 |
| wxl | something could certainly be set up wrong | 21:22 |
| lynorian | or missing dependency | 21:23 |
| aden_ | I use dpkg and gdeb neither worked | 21:23 |
| wxl | if you look at the .desktop file corresponding to that application, what's the Exec line? | 21:23 |
| wxl | yep could be dependencies, too | 21:23 |
| aden_ | hmmm | 21:25 |
| aden_ | might just go back to ubuntu | 21:25 |
| wxl | it should work the exact same way | 21:25 |
| aden_ | lubuntu is really hard to setup | 21:25 |
| wxl | it's the same underlying system | 21:25 |
| wxl | (at least when it comes to launching applications) | 21:26 |
| aden_ | I never had problems launching .deb packages and programs in ubuntu only lubuntu | 21:26 |
| aden_ | and theres barely any tutorial on it | 21:27 |
| wxl | that sounds like correlation not causation | 21:27 |
| wxl | the instructions to run software for ubuntu are the same for lubuntu | 21:27 |
| aden_ | interesting | 21:28 |
| wxl | let's try to get specific here for a moment. what version of lubuntu are you on and what specific software (pick one) are you trying to run? give me a link. | 21:28 |
| aden_ | how do I check the program log? | 21:28 |
| wxl | what do you mean by program log? | 21:28 |
| aden_ | just the log in general | 21:28 |
| wxl | just like with any operating system i know of, there's no "general log" per se. /var/log/syslog is the closest there is, but that's not going to tell you the result of every application that ran. | 21:29 |
| aden_ | hmmm | 21:29 |
| aden_ | welp | 21:29 |
| aden_ | i dunno | 21:29 |
| aden_ | no errors nothing | 21:29 |
| aden_ | just wont launch | 21:29 |
| wxl | i've asked you two questions to try to help resolve your issue and you've not answered | 21:29 |
| wxl | i'm not sure i can help you without understanding more | 21:29 |
| aden_ | alright ill try and answer | 21:32 |
| aden_ | Im on lubuntu 18.10 cosmic most recent version. Im trying to run davinci resolve 15. Im trying to use dpkg | 21:33 |
| wxl | give me a link to this software | 21:33 |
| aden_ | https://www.blackmagicdesign.com/products/davinciresolve/ | 21:33 |
| aden_ | I used a simple script called makedavincideb also | 21:33 |
| wxl | ok | 21:34 |
| wxl | well jeez this isn't easy is it now | 21:34 |
| aden_ | heh | 21:34 |
| wxl | do you have something else that doesn't require me to give them all my information, etc. etc.? | 21:34 |
| wxl | and maybe is already packaged as a deb file? | 21:35 |
| aden_ | just type random stuff | 21:35 |
| aden_ | it doesnt check it | 21:35 |
| aden_ | it justredirects you to the download | 21:35 |
| aden_ | sorry for my spelling | 21:35 |
| wxl | well i'm incredibly skeptical of this script | 21:35 |
| wxl | who provided that? | 21:35 |
| aden_ | the internet | 21:35 |
| wxl | so not resolve | 21:35 |
| aden_ | Im not sure | 21:36 |
| wxl | how do you know that script actually works? | 21:36 |
| aden_ | ummmmm I used it and it did | 21:36 |
| aden_ | its not just davinci | 21:36 |
| aden_ | its all the software on here | 21:36 |
| wxl | it works with what? | 21:36 |
| aden_ | I mean I cant launch anything | 21:37 |
| aden_ | thats .deb originally | 21:37 |
| lynorian | are you on irc from a different computer? | 21:37 |
| wxl | what is this script and why are you using it? | 21:37 |
| aden_ | remote control? | 21:37 |
| aden_ | no | 21:37 |
| aden_ | http://www.danieltufvesson.com/makeresolvedeb | 21:39 |
| wxl | yeahhhh | 21:39 |
| wxl | that's for debian | 21:39 |
| aden_ | well every tutorial still said use that | 21:40 |
| aden_ | ubuntu tutorials | 21:40 |
| wxl | this is a whole degree of mess | 21:40 |
| aden_ | yep | 21:40 |
| wxl | so you're using an unsupported script to use some unsupported software | 21:40 |
| wxl | and you're wondering why it's not working | 21:41 |
| wxl | *facepalm* | 21:41 |
| aden_ | wxl: no again every single software I have dosnt work | 21:41 |
| aden_ | thats .deb | 21:41 |
| wxl | so you can't run firefox? | 21:41 |
| aden_ | its already on here | 21:41 |
| aden_ | everything thats on here is fine | 21:41 |
| aden_ | or in the shop | 21:41 |
| wxl | that's initially a deb package | 21:41 |
| wxl | you know there is absolutely the possibility that the software you're trying to install is packaged wrong | 21:42 |
| aden_ | uhuh | 21:42 |
| aden_ | ive tried 7 apps | 21:42 |
| aden_ | none have worked though | 21:42 |
| wxl | how about you give me the simplest and smallest one | 21:43 |
| lynorian | which 7 deb files from the internet? | 21:43 |
| wxl | you know, one that's actually provided by the software developer as a deb file that's meant to work with ubuntu | 21:43 |
| aden_ | i dunno ima just go back to ubuntu | 21:44 |
| wxl | ok, good luck | 21:45 |
| wxl | heh that page has a "When Resolve doesn't start at all or exits immediately" including log file locations | 21:53 |
