[00:13] Hi. Using lubuntu 19.04, how can I put numlock on by default? [00:27] Oderus: you're going to kick yourself when you see how easy this is. Menu -> Preferences -> LXQt Settings -> Keyboard and Mouse -> Keyboard -> Turn on NumLock after login [00:28] Wxl: good grief! Thank you haha [00:28] :) [00:29] the other day there was a question about making desktop shortcuts AND I DIDN"T REALIZE YOU COULD DRAG AND DROP FROM THE MENU [00:29] i mean seriously, LXQt is awesome [00:36] Hahah yeah. Im totally used to kde [00:37] i really like lxde.. gonnna miss it :( [00:37] ahhhh not too far off then. it's pretty like kde but not so many functions that very few people need XD [00:37] Is it going somewhere? [00:37] the one thing about kde: it can do ANYTHING.. regardless of whether or not you want it to [00:37] 18.04 is the last version of Lubuntu with LXDE [00:37] it [00:38] 'll still be in the archives [00:38] but it's pretty much dead upstream [00:38] has been [00:38] yeah- i think 18.04 is the last lts thats gonna have it [00:38] im gonna have to either start getting used to it, or switch to debian [00:39] (when the time comes) [00:39] Isnt the point of lubuntu to use lxde? [00:39] 4/2021 [00:39] no, the point of Lubuntu is to be lightweight [00:39] also: usable [00:39] it's hard to call something usable when it's unsupported :/ [00:40] So what will it use? [00:40] LXQt [00:40] just like you're using [00:40] since 18.10 we've been releasing only LXQt [00:41] Ohhh ok. Whats the major differemce? [00:41] well one major difference is LXQt is way more intuitive, usable, modern, beautiful, functional, well-developed and -supported upstream [00:42] the biggest difference is GTK vs Qt [00:42] another is that rather than using ancient GTK2 (GTK4 is coming soon), it uses Qt for the graphics toolkids.. like KDE [00:42] all of the apps are different [00:42] The memory usage is soooooo low [00:42] the applications have been chosen based around the idea of trying to keep with Qt [00:43] LXDE and LXQt have one thing in common: the L stands for light [00:43] here is a screenshot of my desktop [00:43] I chose lubuntu for the low memory usage for a strange project lol [00:43] https://cn.opendesktop.org/img/8/d/4/8/60063273678ffe5cac3106e9afced6ca46b3.png [00:44] Nicr [00:44] good ol'lxde can be beautiful! [00:44] Dont mind my typing, on irc on a galaxy s9 -_- [00:44] i like how you're trying to make it look like LXQt X''''D [00:45] i made those start menu icons :) [00:45] you should so post that on discourse. that's cute. [00:45] lol thnx [00:47] this is the theme info if anyone is interested [00:47] https://github.com/PowderLinux/LXDE-Start-Menu/blob/master/THEME-INFO.txt [00:47] seriously! go post it on discourse! [00:49] ok. i will in a lil bit [00:49] gtg guys [00:51] Im using as close to 0 theming as possible [00:52] Black desktop [00:52] oooo [00:52] i use a tiling window manager so i rarely see mine XD [00:53] As soon as lubuntu starts fs-uae runs and for all intents and purposes, it boots directly into Amiga OS [00:53] ok yeah that's crazy alright [00:53] Lolol [00:53] also rad [00:53] i grew up in the amiga era. never had one, but a c-128 was my first computer. [00:53] YOU TOTALLY NEED TO mAKE SOME DEMOS [00:54] Nice!!!!! Mine was a VIC20 i think. [00:54] I was thinking of making some MODs and telnetting a few bbs [00:54] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=STcVIPvr6lE [00:54] Kickin it oldskool [00:55] yuuuup [00:55] Vic 20 was my first machine too. [00:55] They still develop amiga believe it or not [00:55] what do you mean? [00:56] New Amigas, ppc arcitecture. Amiga OS 4.1 [00:56] ppc only? [00:56] and that must be ppc64? [00:56] Yeah [00:56] err i guess ppc64el now eh? [00:57] Ill never buy the hardware tho. Cant justify paying 1500 for hardware that is outdated [00:57] Price too high [00:57] yikes [00:58] Lots of custom chips [00:59] small production runs jack up the price exponentially [00:59] They still develop for classic m68k too. A new version for non ppc amigas just came out. Theres also os4.1 for ppc classic amigas [01:00] huh cool [01:00] well i'm off [01:00] have a good one! [01:00] Thanks for the help and the chat [01:00] you should post screenshots of YOUR lubuntu to the discourse Oderus X''D [01:00] that'll stump 'em for sure [01:00] Hahaha okay! [01:02] https://discourse.lubuntu.me/t/screenshot-thread/221 [01:02] ok now i'm leaving for real === jonathon is now known as Guest57877 [07:21] sooo... someone posted a solution for a bug with 18.04 and Kodi https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/kodi/+bug/1836828/comments/9 it says to download and install libdrm-amdgpu1_2.4.95-1~18.04.1_amd64.deb but in the link provided I don't see that file [07:21] Launchpad bug 1836828 in kodi (Ubuntu) "Kodi crashes when trying to play any video" [Undecided,Confirmed] === BrianG61UK_ is now known as BrianG61UK [16:37] I was wondering extracting lubuntu iso and placing it on a SD Card Running Grub Rescue and finding the files and reinstall Linux with SD Using a Phone to Transfer and seeing if Grub could boot it up is it possible [16:38] & how would I manage to do so [16:43] I would look at https://duckduckgo.com/?q=how+to+install+ubuntu+on+phone&t=ffab&atb=v1-1&ia=web === james is now known as Guest39252 === decaf is now known as Guest16878 [22:22] I'm getting a 404 error when trying to do sudo apt update [22:22] (Photo, 1280x720) https://i.imgur.com/3Decr1v.jpg [22:22] !cosmic [22:22] Ubuntu 18.10 (Cosmic Cuttlefish) was the 29th release of Ubuntu. Support ended July 18th, 2019. See !eol and https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-security-announce/2019-July/004996.html [22:23] Oh is that why? [22:23] I haven't updated my machine in that case then right ? [22:23] no, but that's a major issue you need to solve. [22:23] How do I make sure I upgrade to the latest Lubuntu version then [22:24] the very error message you get is because the PPA you have configured no longer exists, or does not exist for ubuntu cosmic [22:24] That I understand [22:24] to upgrade, use either update-manager -c (graphical) or do-release-upgrade (textual) [22:25] be sure to have complete and current backups before upgrading [22:26] (Photo, 1280x720) https://i.imgur.com/Yl1talt.jpg [22:26] personally i'd also recommend to ppa-purge any PPAs and to identify and delete leftover packages which can break the upgrade: https://github.com/tomreyn/scripts#foreign_packages [22:27] Do I have to use muon instead? [22:27] to do what? [22:28] To update my Lubuntu os [22:28] I tried both commands you listed but no dice [22:28] i think you should first disable the PPA which causes errors, then sudo apt update && sudo apt full-upgrade [22:29] Will sudo apt full-upgrade bump me up to Disco? [22:30] no, this will only install the latest updates for cosmic [22:30] which should enable you to run do-release-upgrade [22:32] so start by doing this sudo rm /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ubuntu-server-iso-testing-dev*.list [22:32] then sudo apt update && sudo apt full-upgrade [22:36] SamuelBanya: and finally sudo do-release-upgrade [22:42] Ok thanks [22:42] Help a lot [22:42] *helps [22:45] here's the manual https://manual.lubuntu.me/D/upgrading.html [22:47] do-release-upgrade is mentioned (amongst other) at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Lubuntu#Upgrading_from_last_release [22:47] and you're welcome ;) [23:08] (Photo, 125x32) https://i.imgur.com/XSd8mO1.jpg [23:08] how to change backlight of the keyboard state indicator from grey to red for more eyecatch ? [23:19] @ctisme you have to edit the Lubuntu Arc theme [23:19] look in /usr/share/lxqt/themes/Lubuntu Arc [23:19] lxqt-panel.qss is the relevant file [23:19] there's a section for KbIndicator [23:19] currently you have: [23:19] #KbIndicator > QLabel:enabled { [23:20] background: #383C4A; [23:20] } [23:20] change that value [23:21] should take effect immediately [23:21] i would have told you to just use kvantum but it's not packaged :( https://github.com/tsujan/Kvantum/tree/master/Kvantum [23:23] oh wait i lied [23:24] !info qt5-style-kvantum [23:24] Package qt5-style-kvantum does not exist in bionic [23:24] i'll kick you, bot [23:24] !info qt5-style-kvantum disco [23:24] qt5-style-kvantum (source: qt5-style-kvantum): Kvantum style engine (binaries).
