| motaka2 | I am using lubuntu 16.04. Since 3 hours ago that I restarted my laptop, none of my usb ports work. for example my mouse does not work. but usb thetering works. Does any one know how I can fix this? | 06:16 |
|---|---|---|
| guiverc | motaka2, Lubuntu is a flavor of Ubuntu, as such it only comes with 3 years of support; 16.04 LTS is EOL, so you should release-upgrade ASAP. (kylin in 16.04 had 5 years, there are exceptions on occasion) | 06:20 |
| tomreyn | !crosspost | motaka2 | 06:20 |
| ubottu | motaka2: Please don't ask the same question in multiple Ubuntu channels at the same time. Many helpers are in more than one channel and it's not fair to them or the other people seeking support. | 06:20 |
| guiverc | thanks tomreyn , I hadn't noticed.. | 06:21 |
| guiverc | motaka2, 16.04 Lubuntu release statement - https://lubuntu.me/xenial-released/ "supported until April 2019, with three years of support." | 06:22 |
| tomreyn | guiverc: that's why i'm pointing it out ;) | 06:22 |
| brunch875 | Hi! Giving lxqt a shot. I'm trying to change alt-click to super-click to handle windows. I modified .config/openbox/lxqt-rc.xml but it seems the "global actions manager" shortcuts (which handle the sound volume hotkeys) are capturing the super key before it reaches those binds | 08:40 |
| brunch875 | Does anyone have experience with this? | 08:40 |
| lynorian | yes that is the case | 08:40 |
| brunch875 | Is it then possible to do what I want to do without unbinding super for the launcher menu? | 08:41 |
| lubot | <lynorian> @brunch875 [<brunch875> Hi! Giving lxqt a shot. I'm trying to change alt-click to super-clic …], I honestly think changing ti from super would proably be easiest if you want super in openbox stuff | 08:42 |
| brunch875 | hmmm guess I could change the launcher from super to ctrl-super :s | 08:43 |
| brunch875 | hmmm not really working out. Does the global actions manager have some configuration files? | 08:47 |
| brunch875 | aha found it .config/lxqt/globalkeyshortcuts.conf | 09:03 |

| lutinmalin | hi! | 10:48 |
| lutinmalin | is this the right place to ask for help? | 10:49 |
| diogenes_ | !ask | 10:50 |
| ubottu | Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) See also !patience | 10:50 |
| lutinmalin | I installed the latest Lubuntu and after going into the settings and enabling battery monitoring, I get a message saying Lxqt power management doesn't find any battery. I'd appreciate some help. | 10:53 |
| tomreyn | lutinmalin: your hardwares' sensors or acpi data could not be access entirely. how to proceed can depend on the hardware you have there. | 10:59 |
| tomreyn | lutinmalin: i suggest you look into lm-sensors and its sensors-detect script as well as into laptop vendor specific software packages such as tlp, and also check your systemd journal for warnings and errors. | 11:01 |
| === pascal is now known as Guest96839 | ||
| === Guest96839 is now known as Lutinmalin | ||
| Lutinmalin | @tomreyn thanks for the tips. lshw detects the battery, but that's the only one. Here's the related systemd entry: ofonod[972]: enum_devices_reply: no battery detected | 11:58 |
| Lutinmalin | my laptop is an HP tablet pc | 12:00 |
| Lutinmalin | I installed lm-sensors and ran sensors-detect, but I don't see anything about battery. the only thing found is an "intel digital thermal sensor". | 12:05 |
| Lutinmalin | Before that, I tried Fedora 30. It was too heavy for my laptop but the battery monitoring worked fine. Any way I can import the Fedora software on Lubuntu? | 12:11 |
| diogenes_ | Lutinmalin, see if upower is installed also pastebin: cat /etc/defaul/grub | 12:18 |

| WiseMonk | Hello guys, i have created new user on lubuntu 18.04 and now it asks me for keyring password when I connect to wifi | 14:15 |
| WiseMonk | how can I set it to use the login keyring instead? | 14:15 |
| WiseMonk | I starte from terminal vial "seahorse" command,it doenst list a login keyring | 14:20 |
| tomreyn | quote from #ubuntu: <WiseMonk> lotuspsychje I just solved the problem, by creating an admin-user instead of desktop-user, seems to be a bug in Lubuntu 18.04 | 14:42 |
| WiseMonk | yeah seems like creating a "Desktop user" doesnt set him to use the login keyring for network passwords by default. both creating by gui settings and by adduser | 14:48 |
| B|ack0p | hi. i just installed lubuntu | 17:09 |
| B|ack0p | also i installed gnome classic desktop but i cant see option to select desktop at login screen | 17:09 |

| diogenes_ | B|ack0p, ls /usr/bin | grep gnome | 17:18 |
| B|ack0p | diogenes_: thx i am trying | 17:19 |
| diogenes_ | do you see gnome-shell? | 17:19 |
| B|ack0p | diogenes_: i see gnome session | 17:19 |
| B|ack0p | not shell | 17:19 |
| diogenes_ | right now | 17:20 |

| diogenes_ | and which of those you see in the login manager? | 17:21 |
| B|ack0p | diogenes_: it doesnt show anything at login manager | 17:22 |
| diogenes_ | is it sddm? | 17:22 |
| B|ack0p | it doesnt give any option to choose desktop | 17:22 |
| B|ack0p | not sure. | 17:22 |
| B|ack0p | i am new on lubuntu | 17:22 |
| diogenes_ | B|ack0p, systemctl status sddm | 17:24 |
| diogenes_ | what do you get? | 17:24 |

| B|ack0p | i am trying possible linux distros to be able to use on this old laptop | 17:28 |
| diogenes_ | ok you can try this, log out and ctrl+alt+f1, login int hat shell and run: gnome-session | 17:28 |
| B|ack0p | ok | 17:29 |
| B|ack0p | brb | 17:29 |
| B|ack0p | diogenes_: i did but i couldnt get back to login screen | 17:31 |
| B|ack0p | i did ctrl alt del and it rebooted | 17:31 |
| B|ack0p | nothing happened when i did gnome-session on new terminal at login | 17:31 |
| diogenes_ | then this one: /usr/lib/gnome-session/run-systemd-session gnome-session-flashback.target | 17:32 |
| diogenes_ | btw | 17:32 |
| diogenes_ | you can specify this in grub linux line: systemd.unit=multiuser-target | 17:32 |
| B|ack0p | should i install gnome-shell instead of session flashback? | 17:33 |
| diogenes_ | no clue, i never installed gnome, https://askubuntu.com/questions/110516/is-there-a-way-to-install-unity-or-gnome-shell-along-with-lubuntu | 17:34 |
| B|ack0p | hmm | 17:34 |
| B|ack0p | diogenes_: may i ask what desktop do you use and which distro? | 17:35 |
| B|ack0p | debian? | 17:35 |
| diogenes_ | dual booting Debian/openSUSE XFCE. | 17:36 |
| B|ack0p | xfce is not for me.. it looks very ugly and buggy :/ | 17:36 |
| B|ack0p | in other hand gnome is tooo source hungry | 17:37 |
| B|ack0p | slow | 17:37 |
| diogenes_ | it's highly customizable but to each his own. | 17:37 |
| B|ack0p | maybe but i couldnt succeed about it | 17:37 |
| B|ack0p | let me try gnome-shell | 17:37 |
| B|ack0p | brb | 17:37 |
| B|ack0p | no luck.. i cant choose desktop option at login screen | 17:56 |

| freelancerbob | hey need help with autologin | 19:37 |
| freelancerbob | does not work on my lubuntu | 19:37 |
| kc2bez | which version freelancerbob ? | 19:39 |
| freelancerbob | 18.04 | 19:39 |
| freelancerbob | i do not know what do i have to change | 19:40 |
| freelancerbob | drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 Oct 6 21:19 lightdm.conf.ddrwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 Oct 6 21:21 lightdm-gtk-greeter.conf.d-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 463 Oct 6 21:07 users.conf | 19:40 |
| freelancerbob | in my /etc/lightdm | 19:40 |
| freelancerbob | nothing helped :/ | 19:41 |
| kc2bez | What do you have in the `/etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf.d/` directory? | 19:45 |
| freelancerbob | 20-lubuntu.conf | 19:47 |
| freelancerbob | and in the file is: | 19:47 |
| freelancerbob | user-session=Lubuntugreeter-session=unity-greeter | 19:47 |
| tomreyn | "unity-greeter"? this sounds wrong on 18.04. | 19:50 |
| kc2bez | Can you pastebin the file? There should be a heading in there too. | 19:50 |
| freelancerbob | it was upgraded from 16.04 | 19:50 |
| freelancerbob | https://pastebin.com/cXfhfhJW | 19:51 |
| tomreyn | freelancerbob: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LightDM#Changing_the_Greeter states that greeter-session should be set to the name of a /usr/share/xgreeters/*.desktop file | 19:58 |
| tomreyn | freelancerbob: ls -l /usr/share/xgreeters/*.desktop returns what? | 19:58 |
| tomreyn | it also discusses how to automate the login https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LightDM#Setting_an_Automatic_Login | 19:59 |
| freelancerbob | https://pastebin.com/Gsx3PRXw | 20:00 |
| tomreyn | so you'd just add: autologin-user=freelancerbob | 20:00 |
| freelancerbob | into which file ? | 20:00 |
| tomreyn | this can go into 20-lubuntu.conf | 20:01 |
| tomreyn | so /etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf.d/20-lubuntu.conf | 20:01 |
| freelancerbob | i will back ater reboot | 20:01 |
| freelancerbob | did not helped | 20:04 |
| freelancerbob | :/ | 20:04 |
| tomreyn | freelancerbob: and set greeter-session=lightdm-greeter | 20:04 |
| tomreyn | did you replace "freelancerbob" in autologin-user=freelancerbob by your actual system user anme? | 20:04 |
| tomreyn | ...since oyu need to | 20:05 |
| freelancerbob | yes i replaced it to bob | 20:05 |
| freelancerbob | my user | 20:05 |
| freelancerbob | i will change greeter-session | 20:05 |
| tomreyn | freelancerbob: oh wait, you may also need to rename the file | 20:06 |
| freelancerbob | which one | 20:06 |
| tomreyn | give me a minute | 20:07 |
| tomreyn | freelancerbob: nah should be fin, no need to renma eit, i think | 20:10 |
| tomreyn | *no need to rename it | 20:11 |
| tomreyn | freelancerbob: but install package lightdm-autologin-greeter | 20:11 |
| tomreyn | then edit /etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf.d/lightdm-autologin-greeter.conf and replace "AUTOLOGIN-USER-NOT-CONFIGURED" by "bob" | 20:13 |
| freelancerbob | from here ? https://github.com/spanezz/lightdm-autologin-greeter | 20:13 |
| tomreyn | no, from lubuntu's apt based software repositories. sudo apt update && sudo apt install lightdm-autologin-greeter | 20:13 |
| tomreyn | then remove (or comment out all lines in) /etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf.d/20-lubuntu.conf | 20:15 |
| freelancerbob | ok, reboot | 20:16 |
| tomreyn | hmm, no bob, i guess i broke it for good. | 20:23 |
| tomreyn | this might be a good time to sneak to bed. see you! | 20:23 |
| freelancerbob | thanks it worked | 20:28 |
| freelancerbob | next question: Is there any brightness default control ?after every restart a need to set brightness | 20:29 |
| freelancerbob | when i open pavucontrol i have got this: (pavucontrol:5828): Gtk-WARNING **: 22:46:30.278: Theme parsing error: gtk-lubuntu.css:250:29: The :insensitive pseudo-class is deprecated. Use :disabled instead. | 20:46 |

| xrandr | Hi. I currently have Ubuntu 19.04, but want to do a fresh install of Lubuntu 19.04 on my laptop via USB stick. How do I burn the ISO to USB? | 22:40 |
| xrandr | nevernmind, found startup disk | 22:41 |
| kc2bez | xrandr: Startup disk creator should work well. | 22:42 |
| xrandr | Yep. Using it ;) | 22:42 |
| xrandr | waiting for it to complete | 22:42 |
| kc2bez | Enjoy :) | 22:43 |
| xrandr | ty | 22:44 |
| lubot | xrandr was added by: xrandr | 22:47 |
| xrandr | brb -- installing | 22:48 |
| xrandr | Hello. I just installed Lubuntu on my laptop. I can't log in to it. It just freezes at the login screen | 23:04 |
| xrandr | What can I do? | 23:05 |
| kc2bez | You can try a CTRL-ALT-F3 to see if it takes you to a command prompt. | 23:06 |
| kc2bez | Technically an alternate TTY https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/167386/how-to-switch-between-tty-and-xorg-session | 23:08 |
| xrandr | no | 23:09 |
| xrandr | just frozen | 23:09 |
| xrandr | lemme reboot and see if i can | 23:09 |
| kc2bez | Ok, out of curiosity what do you have for a system? | 23:09 |
| xrandr | HP ZBook | 23:10 |
| xrandr | I do have the filesystem encrypted | 23:10 |
| xrandr | Even after rebooting and not entering the user's password, and hitting ctrl alt f3, it freezes | 23:11 |
| xrandr | I re-downloaded the ISO, and burning it back to USB. Going to try a re-install and not encrypt the filesystem | 23:13 |
| kc2bez | Weird. By any chance did you check the hashes on the iso? | 23:13 |
| xrandr | No, i didn't. I am re-downloading it now | 23:13 |
| kc2bez | It is best to check the hashes. The image may install but if it is even 1 bit off you will get odd results. | 23:14 |
| xrandr | okay | 23:17 |
| xrandr | Should I not encrypt the filesystem? | 23:20 |
| kc2bez | Encryption should work fine. | 23:21 |
| xrandr | can I encrypt the filesystem post-install? | 23:22 |
| kc2bez | no | 23:22 |
| xrandr | ok. Let me see if this works without encryption first, then I'll re-install again with encryption and see what happens | 23:22 |
| kc2bez | Sounds good. | 23:23 |
| xrandr | Same issue | 23:26 |
| xrandr | How do I check the hash? | 23:26 |
| xrandr | kc2bez: how do i check the hash? | 23:28 |
| kc2bez | This section in our manual goes over that https://manual.lubuntu.me/1/1.1/retrieving_the_image.html#downloading-the-image-via-http | 23:28 |
| xrandr | ok, the hash matches | 23:33 |
| xrandr | Beginning to think I should just use regular ubuntu, and re-install lxde | 23:33 |
| xrandr | Thank you anyway :) | 23:40 |
