[00:11] <joe657> wxl: actually, it's not in there, but that's ok, i'm going to explore a different option
[00:12] <wxl> vino-preferences.desktop, to be exact
[00:16] <joe657> wxl: so 'nomachine' isn't in the apt-cache? need to install it from the company website directly?
[00:16] <wxl> joe657: yep
[00:16] <joe657> ok
[00:16] <joe657> just wondering, why you prefer it?
[00:17] <wxl> of all the remote desktop solutions, it is the most reliable, most secure, and most full featured
[00:17] <joe657> ok i'll check it out...thx
[00:19] <wxl> np
[01:59] <joe657> wxl: nomachine worked fine, but when i rebooted the target machine, the graphical desktop display is now misaligned. any ideas what went wrong?
[02:01] <joe657> it shifting right about 25% and down about 10%
[02:03] <joe657> come to think of it, i think fluxbox might be interfering. when i right click on the black part of the screen, it shows the fluxbox menu, when i click on the desktop background, it displays the contextual menu for lxsession
[02:10] <joe657> uninstalled fluxbox and rebooted and the display is back to normal. fluxbox wasn't playing nice with lxde, fyi
[02:48] <joe657> also, in the nomachine setup, the remote machine had a different resolution than the client and i was prompted if i wanted to change the server resolution to match the client and i chose to do that, which might have contributed to the display misalignment after rebooting
[03:33] <sappheiros> falkon appears substantially faster than firefox
[03:33] <sappheiros> is that because it runs on LQ, the native language of lubuntu?
[03:33] <sappheiros> or is that Qt, i mean
[03:50] <wxl> joe657: can you send a screenshot?
[03:54] <wxl> sappheiros: i think the long and short of it is firefox is ultimately rather bloated, but also i believe the performance of qt is better than gtk3
[04:05] <sappheiros> i guess i'll take your word for it
[04:05] <sappheiros> how do i know falkon doesn't have a backdoor stealing saved passwords?
[04:06] <wxl> you audit the code
[04:06] <wxl> how do you know firefox doesn't?
[04:06] <sappheiros> (or -- you beat me to it
[04:06] <wxl> you audit the code
[04:06] <sappheiros> but how do i do that?
[04:06] <wxl> how do you internet explorer doesn't?
[04:06] <wxl> oh wait, you can't because they don't release the ccode
[04:06] <sappheiros> lol
[04:06] <wxl> what about safari?
[04:06] <wxl> sorry, no code available
[04:06] <sappheiros> i figure if a major company did it there'd be a huge scandal and they'd lose millions of dollars, etc
[04:07] <wxl> but how would anyone be able to prove it?
[04:07] <wxl> you can prove it easily if the code is available
[04:07] <sappheiros> do they have to? lots of people believe edward snowden about the nsa spying on us, but i've never seen anything personally to indicate the nsa exists
[04:08] <sappheiros> so how do i audit falkon?
[04:08] <wxl> you learn about programming and networking
[16:57] <cristina_> ciao
[18:00] <lotuspsychje> how do i enable autologin on lubuntu 18.04
[18:05] <diogenes_> lotuspsychje, what is the output of: cat /etc/X11/default-display-manager
[18:06] <lotuspsychje> diogenes_: lightdm
[18:08] <diogenes_> lotuspsychje, edit this file: /etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf the line #autologin-user= change to autologin-user=yourusername
[18:10] <lotuspsychje> diogenes_: its already set like that so it seems, i tryed GUI settings with 'dont ask password on login' and that just gives me clickable username
[18:10] <lotuspsychje> its weird, cause it previously worked autologin
[18:21] <lotuspsychje> dont find any autologon in dconf-editor neither
