| chieta10 | i want to get alternate for 1.6 G iso files just for booting ... fsck and edit some partiiiition due to failed boot.... which distro shoul i choose? | 01:13 |
|---|---|---|
| wxl | just use the mini.iso | 01:13 |
| wxl | or really if you want something particularly useful trinity rescue disk or finnix | 01:14 |

| rozelli_elli | hey guys anybody want to help me troubleshoot a sound problem | 01:16 |
| rozelli_elli | the sound would cut out back on the lxde distro and some software configuration used to fix it...sometimes my laptop has sound and other more often it does not have sound....sound through the headphones work all the time | 01:17 |
| rozelli_elli | i can take screenshots | 01:17 |
| rozelli_elli | i have the new lxqt distro now | 01:17 |
| rozelli_elli | laptop is not muted from the keyboard or anything like that...sound works through headphones but not trhough speakers...i did a fresh install a few days ago and noticed the problem | 01:19 |
| rozelli_elli | https://i.postimg.cc/fWhXgQ4r/screen.jpg | 01:22 |
| wxl | what was this "software configuration?" | 01:23 |
| rozelli_elli | hmm not sure | 01:23 |
| rozelli_elli | it was back on my lxde machine | 01:23 |
| rozelli_elli | something to do with headphones i think | 01:23 |
| wxl | harumph | 01:24 |
| wxl | so first thing's first: it's unlikely your problem is specific to lubuntu. it will likely be solved in the exact same way in any other ubuntu flavor as they all use the same kernel modules and sound server | 01:24 |
| rozelli_elli | indeed | 01:24 |
| rozelli_elli | https://i.postimg.cc/ZYVRPGJ3/screen2.jpg | 01:24 |
| rozelli_elli | ah i see...ty for halp | 01:25 |
| wxl | i'll see if i can't google some sort of guess or another, but that's a really curious thing if it's intermittent | 01:25 |
| wxl | s/google/duckduckgo/ | 01:26 |
| chieta10 | noted, wxl for the rescue disk | 01:27 |
| wxl | rozelli_elli: could you pastebin `lspci -nnk | grep -A 2 Audio` ? | 01:29 |
| Ranger5 | Hi guys, I tried this earlier but I think something went wrong my end, so I'll try again. Is it possible to print emails from the Trojita mail client? I can't find the option to do so in any of the menus. Any one had the same trouble? | 01:39 |
| rozelli_elli | sorry | 01:47 |
| rozelli_elli | i'm not sure what that means | 01:47 |
| rozelli_elli | what is it that you are requesting i pastebin? | 01:47 |
| rozelli_elli | ? | 01:47 |
| rozelli_elli | you mean that command in the terminal? | 01:47 |
| rozelli_elli | i am a noob | 01:47 |
| wxl | yep | 01:49 |
| rozelli_elli | sorry that took so long wxl | 02:25 |
| rozelli_elli | https://i.postimg.cc/Cw2xMyhr/screen3.jpg | 02:25 |
| rozelli_elli | i was afk | 02:25 |
| rozelli_elli | i will hang out in this chat for a bit...i don't mean to bother you guys if you are busy | 02:26 |
| rozelli_elli | hey i just fixed the audo | 02:33 |
| rozelli_elli | audio* | 02:33 |
| rozelli_elli | i was in firefox and i went to a site that said | 02:34 |
| rozelli_elli | 'enable drm' | 02:34 |
| rozelli_elli | or something to that effect | 02:34 |
| rozelli_elli | and i clicked 'enable' | 02:34 |
| rozelli_elli | and now sound is working properly...and i clicked this button from within firefox | 02:34 |
| rozelli_elli | and now sound works for the whole system and not only firefox | 02:36 |
| wxl | well life pulls us away from the keyboard every now and then | 02:36 |
| wxl | anywho afaik that drm is just google widevine cdm | 02:38 |
| wxl | unfortunately that doesn't help much | 02:38 |
| wxl | my guess is maybe it restarted the sound server? | 02:38 |
| rozelli_elli | ah i see | 02:40 |
| rozelli_elli | when you say sound server do you mean something to the effect of | 02:40 |
| rozelli_elli | 'restarted the sound board' | 02:40 |
| wxl | pulseaudio | 02:40 |
| rozelli_elli | ah ok | 02:40 |
| rozelli_elli | so somehow caused pulseaudio to recognize it | 02:40 |
| rozelli_elli | hey you know what...what's the quickest way also to format a flash drive in the new lubuntu? | 02:41 |
| rozelli_elli | i ended up just using gparted | 02:41 |
| wxl | it's really got no physical analogue. it's not really a sound board/mixer. it's a middleware between kernel modules and user interface | 02:41 |
| wxl | you might have some clues in your logs as to what the error might be | 02:41 |
| rozelli_elli | u guyd r awesome | 02:42 |
| rozelli_elli | guys* | 02:42 |
| wxl | but maybe running `pulseaudio -k` would be worth a go. if it helps, that's simply restarting pulseaudio. | 02:42 |
| wxl | well you want the quickest or the easiest way XD | 02:42 |
| rozelli_elli | nice! | 02:44 |
| rozelli_elli | ty | 02:44 |
| p0wder | hey. what would you recommend for encrypting a flash drive? luks or veracrpyt? | 03:42 |
| lubot | <teward001> do you need it to be usable in other OSes? | 03:42 |
| lubot | <teward001> or just your Lubuntu system? | 03:42 |
| lubot | <teward001> if other OSes, VeraCrypt assuming you can put Veracrypt on the other systems. | 03:43 |
| lubot | <teward001> if just your system, luks could probably do it | 03:43 |
| lubot | <teward001> but i'd suggest just encrypting the data before writing it to the stick (PGP encryption, etc.) | 03:43 |
| p0wder | mostly linux | 03:43 |
| p0wder | hmm. i thought about doing that- its nothing confidential or anything | 03:44 |
| p0wder | just want to make it so no one can have my data if i lose it | 03:44 |
| lubot | <teward001> both are viable options, encrypting the disk or encrypting the data before putting it on the stick | 03:47 |
| lubot | <teward001> VeraCrypt would be the easier option than LUKS IMO | 03:47 |
| lubot | <teward001> but I usually don't encrypt the *disk* and just dump a VeraCrypt container (or some other file container mechanism) on the stick and then the stick can still be accessed but the data in the container is still at resk | 03:48 |
| lubot | <teward001> rest* | 03:48 |
| lubot | <teward001> rather than messing with full disk encrypton on external media | 03:48 |
| p0wder | i was leaning towards veracrypt. never did a whole disk tho, just containers | 03:49 |
| p0wder | wanted to check to see if luks would be better for that | 03:49 |
| happyamos | I just installed the Spotify Snap in lubuntu, but it didn't create an app shortcut in the menu. How do I create one? I don't even know where snaps are installed. | 03:58 |
| lubot | <kc2bez> happyamos: you may have to reboot for it to show in the menu. | 04:00 |
| guiverc | happyamos, I would find what command runs it, spot<tab><tab> should autocomplete to show command, or provide a list which I'd expect to pick it, then use `whereis ` to locate where it's found (/snap/) | 04:00 |
| happyamos | ahh, whereis, got it! | 04:01 |
| happyamos | great thanks folks! | 04:01 |
| lubot | <kc2bez> `snap run NAMEOFSNAP` would start it too. | 04:02 |

| === browsr is now known as pr0grmr | ||
| happyamos | Issue, look at the bottom of my screen, how the window does not line up with the task bar, but hides behind it. https://paste.pics/7MVWN | 13:57 |
| happyamos | Where do you edit the channel list that gets auto-joined in Quassel IRC? | 14:07 |
| happyamos_ | I found a way to hack the taskbar margin at the bottom using the OpenBox Settings manager, but that still doesn't seem right. | 14:13 |
| === happyamos_ is now known as happyamos | ||
| kc2bez | happyamos: If you right click on the panel and go to configure panel is "Reserve space on display" ticked on? That should reserve the panel space for maximized windows. You can still manually slide a windo underneath but the maximized windows should respect it. | 14:26 |
| happyamos | Wow, that was it! I must have ticked it off by accident, thanks! | 14:27 |
| happyamos | Now I need to figure out window snap. If it's limited to keybindings, that's ok. | 14:30 |
| kc2bez | Window snapping is limited to keybinds and would have to be added to the openbox config. | 14:36 |
| kc2bez | We removed it because it interfered with the super key but it could be added back with another keybind instead. | 14:37 |
| lubot | <The_LoudSpeaker> happyamos: window snap is not supported in 19.10. You can add it by manually by using openbox config. But I should warn you, it will be a dirty hack and I don't recommend it. | 14:38 |
| happyamos | Keybindings are ok. How did the bindings interfere with the superkey? | 14:40 |
| lubot | vnareyko was added by: vnareyko | 14:57 |
| lubot | <The_LoudSpeaker> @happyamos [<happyamos> Keybindings are ok. How did the bindings interfere with the superkey …], If you set any binding with super key from openbox, the ones that are in lxqt-globalkeys (shortcut settings in menu) won't work. | 15:51 |
| lubot | <The_LoudSpeaker> You can set bindings of super key from shortcut settings. | 15:51 |

| john-v | Hello y'all | 16:27 |
| john-v | i'm testing a lubuntu distro in a VM | 16:27 |
| john-v | i am really considering to change mint for Lubuntu, what do you think? | 16:28 |
| kc2bez | john-v: We think Lubuntu is a great choice but we may be a bit biased :) | 16:30 |
| * diogenes_ has never had good time with mint | 16:31 | |
| john-v | well, i like cinnamon mint but i need somethoing lighter 'cause my hardware is... well, is not a piece of shit but is not great either | 16:32 |
| john-v | i'm planning on using it for some web app/flask stuff and maybe some android dev | 16:32 |
| kc2bez | Lubuntu is the lightest of the official flavors. The modern web can be taxing however. What are your machine specifications? | 16:33 |
| kc2bez | Also | 16:33 |
| kc2bez | !language | 16:34 |

| john-v | sorry, i was in the other part of the internet | 16:35 |
| john-v | my card | 16:35 |
| john-v | asrock QC5000M | 16:36 |
| john-v | 4 Gigs of ram | 16:36 |
| john-v | CPU a4-5050 | 16:37 |
| kc2bez | That should work. You may find yourself limited as to the number of tabs, etc. due to the amount of RAM but I have tested Lubuntu on machines with lower specs and they work fine. | 16:40 |
| john-v | you think it can candle android studio? | 16:45 |
| kc2bez | According to the specs at the bottom of this page https://developer.android.com/studio It should work, you may be on the low-end of that though. | 16:50 |
| john-v | thank you, i think RAM is a must, lubuntu or mint, i feel bad for asking a googleable question | 16:59 |
| kc2bez | No worries, happy to help. | 17:00 |
| lubot | <The_LoudSpeaker> @john-v [<john-v> thank you, i think RAM is a must, lubuntu or mint, i feel bad for askin …], I can easily run 30 tabs in Chrome with 6 gb of ram in Lubuntu. 4 seems to be a bit of a bottleneck. | 17:16 |
| john-v | yeah, it feels like it, i think >12 is the right amout of RAM | 17:20 |
| lubot | <ctisme> (Photo, 800x600) https://i.imgur.com/gahqEPq.jpg | 18:03 |

| Ranger5 | Hi guys, does anyone know how to print emails from the Trojita mail client? The option seems to be missing from my menus. | 23:42 |
| kc2bez | Ranger5: I don't think it is possible from within Trojita. | 23:43 |
| kc2bez | The only option I can see is to save the message and open it with another program that can print. | 23:44 |
| Ranger5 | Isn't that a bit wierd though? Surely it's a basic function? | 23:44 |
| kc2bez | It does indeed seem like it should be basic functionality. | 23:45 |
| Ranger5 | Well if that's the only way, that's what I'll do. It's a Shame though because I actually quite the program. | 23:47 |
| Ranger5 | kc2bez: Thanks for your help:) | 23:49 |
| kc2bez | Sorry I didn't have a better answer, I like Trojita too. | 23:50 |
| kc2bez | A feature request on their bug tracker might help. | 23:50 |
| Ranger5 | True, but I tried that with soemthing another program and it was ignored. Besides, there's not a lot of movement on Trojita development is there? | 23:52 |
| kc2bez | It isn't overwhelming but there does seem to be some bugfixing. | 23:53 |
| Ranger5 | Another thing that I've missed with Trojita is Smileys, but that seems to be more of a Qt problem, is that right? | 23:56 |
| kc2bez | I don't know the answer to that. It could be a font issue or the way fonts are handled in trojita. | 23:58 |
