Who would want to make it bigger? [01:44] people with vision troubles [01:45] If that's the case, not only the cursor should be bigger [01:46] * Eickmeyer needs a lynorian for Ubuntu Studio. :'( [01:46] * Eickmeyer is also not here recruiting. [01:47] @HMollerCl [If that's the case, not only the cursor should be bigger], I mean, isn't there a more global "zoom"? [01:48] not that I know [01:52] @HMollerCl I wish I knew a way [01:52] -lugito:#lubuntu-devel- [rMANUAL5c9fce6c390b: Add session settings changing cursor size] lynorian (Lyn Perrine) committed: https://phab.lubuntu.me/rMANUAL5c9fce6c390b === meetingology` is now known as meetingology === Kamilion|ZNC is now known as Kamilion === finstern1s is now known as finsternis [10:09] This is tarik from Morroco [10:09] is there a possibility to install Lubuntu on Gericom Masterpiece ? [11:04] rtarik, i don't know your machine, but a quick search online says its a x86(something) that ran winXP; is yours x86 or x86_64, how much ram (the ones I saw were small( [11:08] rtarik, also why not download the appropriate one for your system, and try it (https://tutorials.ubuntu.com/tutorial/try-ubuntu-before-you-install is geared for main ubuntu, but it applies to lubuntu too which has a try-lubuntu option) [11:17] , it is pantium 4 about 512 M RAM [11:17] guiverc2, it is pantium 4 about 512 M RAM [11:19] I prepared a Lubuntu USB but it doesn't boot ! [11:19] the 512mb RAM will be your problem. I've tested Lubuntu 18.04 on pentium 4 & pentium m machines inc. 18.04 LTS, 18.10, 19.04 though always with 1gb or more of ram. [11:19] rtarik, it may be the machine itself can't boot USB; many p4's couldn't (they booted dvdr/cdr's) [11:21] I found that Lubuntu may work with less of 512 M RAM ! [11:21] you did download the x86 version I assume, my p4/penitum-m's were incapable of booting x86_64 [11:22] the x64 [11:22] rtarik, i suspect it may, but would not be much fine if you wanted to use chromium/firefox to browse many web sites etc; if playing music, editing docs - not an issue. [11:23] : maybe I'll do a test with x86 [11:24] is your pentium-4 capable of x86_64?; mine were not. [11:24] unsure [11:24] I don't know 64 apply on the old machine [11:25] the more recent releases tend to give a decent message about cpu not being suitable; older releases just gave crash messages as I recall (I don't recall clearly sorry) [11:26] rtarik, what release did you try? (I'm booting lubuntu x86_64 now in a x86 only pentium-4 box) [11:26] 19.04 [11:27] do you recommand specific release ? [11:27] on that old machine, I'd have been tempted to use 18.04 LTS (3 year life instead of 9 months) [11:29] okay, my p4 box says "This kernel requires an x86_64 CPU, but only detected an i686 CPU \n Unable to boot - please use a kernel appropriate for your CPU." [11:29] guiverc2: I'll do other test [11:29] thank you for all those informations [11:30] fyi: i booted 19.10; but 19.04 would have had same error message, and you're most welcome [11:31] Is there a tool (i.e VM software) to test releases or you use USB ? [11:34] rtarik, i mostly test using real hardware (eg. the old p4 heater box I booted for your test), but I do use virtual-box on occasion too, others here use other tools too [11:36] guiverc2: thank you [11:36] :) [20:44] it's only me that now I have "Kde connect"? [20:58] ? [21:02] @HMollerCl did you have KDE connect before? [21:07] @kc2bez [ @HMollerCl did you have KDE connect before?], Nope [21:07] I have it because I installed (and use) it [21:07] Now I have it in preferences [21:09] Hmm [21:13] 19.04? [21:16] I have it installed too but I don't remember seeing it on any fresh 19.04 installs. [21:17] in eoan. [21:17] I mean, after I change the soruces [21:19] kdeconnect/eoan,now 1.3.4-0ubuntu1 amd64 [installed,automatic] [21:22] Hey I got some free time [21:22] So we're not porting kvantum right [21:22] It is not installed on my VM @HMollerCl [21:22] What else do we need to port from gtk to qt [21:23] @kc2bez [ It is not installed on my VM @HMollerCl], did you have eoan sources? [21:24] @SamuelBanya [What else do we need to port from gtk to qt], I believe redshift-gtk should be easy [21:24] Sweet thanks [21:25] kc2bez: hmoller@hmoller-pc:~$ apt list kdeconnect … Listing... Done … kdeconnect/eoan,now 1.3.4-0ubuntu1 amd64 [installed,automatic] [21:25] automactic installed.... [21:25] I do have the sources enabled and eoan [21:26] What happens if you remove it? [21:27] You can simulate the removal. [21:28] @kc2bez [ You can simulate the removal.], how? [21:28] `apt remove -s PACKAGENAME` [21:29] mmm, it will only remove kdeconnect.. [21:30] Side note though regarding redshift. When I download the .tar.gz do I have to build it or since it's python based I just have to port it [21:31] first make sure it works, then make a copy and start the clone [21:35] Ok will do [21:52] I downloaded the tar.gz of this project and in its README.md file it says that I need to install it from the OS itself via a package manager. The only other instructions that relate to possibly building it on my comp are in CONTRIBUTING.md but they list dependencies. Do I have to do: sudo apt-get install (list of all the dependenc [21:52] ies separated by commas)? [21:55] Or do I just have to run the "install.sh" shell file [21:57] I believe that you must install redshfit with apt and run redshift-gtk from the source [21:58] but I've never run redshift from the source, so, not sure it will work w/o problem [22:10] I eventually got the make file to do it's thing [22:10] Now it's having issues about GeoClue since it can't find my location [22:11] I can't find the system setting for location in Lubuntu tbh [22:11] *within Preferences > LxQt settings > LxQt Configuration Center [22:11] * in the startup menu [22:16] Got it to work. If you run it from the startup menu then it appears to ask if I'd like location settings to be enabled. I clicked yes and now I have a gps style pin present that shows the color temp in the upper right [22:16] (Photo, 1280x720) https://i.imgur.com/I32FdLH.jpg [22:16] I'll look at that cheat sheet before trying to use that one guide you sent to port it from gtk to qt [23:16] Cheatsheet only had one thjng that matched the source code present with only "Gtk.Label" section being relevant. so ill have to use that one article you provided [23:38] In terms of GObject do you have to change the entire functions style to suit QObject or can you just change it line by line? [23:38] That's the first thing shown but is a bit daunting in my head on how to approach changing the related code
