| ^AuGiE^ | hi guys | 13:30 |
| ^AuGiE^ | an gals :) | 13:30 |
| ^AuGiE^ | i had my system duel booted for lubuntu and windows.wanted to try out kubuntu so installed it. no other operating systems showed up. so i logged into kubuntu and installed grub custom. everything showed up there (lubuntu, kubuntu, and win) so i think im goot right? no, im not. so now kubuntu and win boot fine but when i try lubuntu the login screen showes up for a sec then goes black for ever lol. im thinking its the mount points | 13:32 |
| ^AuGiE^ | now some1 gave me a link... https://askubuntu.com/questions/753808/how-to-triple-boot-windows-and-two-linux-distros i think i should of used existing grub | 13:32 |
| kc2bez | ^AuGiE^: When you installed Kubuntu, how did you install it? Also, which version of Lubuntu did you have installed? | 14:01 |
| ^AuGiE^ | lubuntu 20.04 and i installed kubuntu like i was duel booting | 14:03 |
| kc2bez | So you created a separate partition and installed it there? | 14:04 |
| ^AuGiE^ | yes | 14:04 |
| ^AuGiE^ | like i sais lununtu login showes up but then goes blank after a sec | 14:05 |
| ^AuGiE^ | said | 14:05 |
| kc2bez | Are you able to get to another virtual terminal using ctrl+alt+f3 ? | 14:07 |
| ^AuGiE^ | here in kubuntu or when lubuntu goes blank | 14:08 |
| ^AuGiE^ | im a noob sorry :) | 14:08 |
| kc2bez | When Lubuntu goes blank. | 14:08 |
| ^AuGiE^ | i didnt try | 14:08 |
| ^AuGiE^ | sda2 windows sda5 kubuntu sda6 lubuntu | 14:09 |
| ^AuGiE^ | u know whats weired the dev/sda litonit | 14:10 |
| kc2bez | I would try that, It will only be a terminal, no gui but that might give some insight as to the issue. It would be necessary to look at some logs beyond that. If something got corrupted during the partition resizing it might be necessary to re-install. | 14:11 |
| ^AuGiE^ | damn | 14:11 |
| ^AuGiE^ | my lubuntu is hooked up | 14:11 |
| ^AuGiE^ | thats a bummer | 14:11 |
| kc2bez | I would try to see if you can isolate the issue then. | 14:11 |
| ^AuGiE^ | now if i do have to reinstall both linuxes when i install the 2nd use no bootloader right | 14:12 |
| ^AuGiE^ | wait... | 14:13 |
| ^AuGiE^ | what if i go in vir term in lubuntu and reinstall grub? | 14:14 |
| ^AuGiE^ | if it lets me go in vir term that is | 14:14 |
| kc2bez | I don't think grub is the issue if you can boot to Lubuntu | 14:14 |
| ^AuGiE^ | yes but goes blank after a sec | 14:14 |
| ^AuGiE^ | im a noob so if im making no sence sorry :) | 14:15 |
| kc2bez | If the greeter shows then grub has done its job. | 14:15 |
| ^AuGiE^ | ok get it | 14:15 |
| ^AuGiE^ | u cant start WM from vir term | 14:15 |
| ^AuGiE^ | if it lets me go in vir term that is | 14:16 |
| kc2bez | It is possible to start a graphical environment from a virtual terminal | 14:16 |
| ^AuGiE^ | ok | 14:16 |
| ^AuGiE^ | what would be the cmd | 14:17 |
| kc2bez | start x | 14:17 |
| ^AuGiE^ | use to be lol was just typing that | 14:17 |
| ^AuGiE^ | ok cool | 14:17 |
| ^AuGiE^ | im gonna go give it a whirl | 14:17 |
| ^AuGiE^ | ty for the help kc2bez | 14:17 |
| kc2bez | NP | 14:18 |
| ^AuGiE^ | tty | 14:18 |
| ^AuGiE^ | nope no vir term | 14:25 |
| ^AuGiE^ | damn | 14:25 |
| ^AuGiE^ | it wont even let me ctrl alt del to reboot i have to hard sd | 14:26 |
| ^AuGiE^ | kc2bez, im lookin at reinstall huh? | 14:26 |
| ^AuGiE^ | its there thou | 14:26 |
| ^AuGiE^ | thats what i dont get | 14:27 |
| kc2bez | It sounds corrupt though | 14:27 |
| ^AuGiE^ | u know how different WM use the different things to load (i forget what they are called it right now) would that matter | 14:29 |
| kc2bez | If you can't get to a virtual terminal then something is truly amiss. | 14:30 |
| ^AuGiE^ | grrrr | 14:30 |
| ^AuGiE^ | i should of used virbox to try out kubuntu | 14:30 |
| ^AuGiE^ | im a idiot | 14:30 |
| kc2bez | Nah, I don't think that. | 14:31 |
| kc2bez | It is part of the learning process. | 14:31 |
| ^AuGiE^ | so now i can leave kubuntu there and reinstall lubuntu ... cause lubuntu is goot it looks for OS installed and works around them, if kubuntu did that i think i would of been good | 14:32 |
| kc2bez | If you choose to re-install you should be able to use the Lubuntu installer and choose replace partition option. It will only re-install on top of that partition | 14:32 |
| kc2bez | Just make sure you select the Lubuntu partition | 14:33 |
| ^AuGiE^ | u answered my ? as i was typing it , u good | 14:33 |
| kc2bez | I try | 14:33 |
| ^AuGiE^ | well if it finds both win an kubuntu that is | 14:34 |
| ^AuGiE^ | it should thou im thinking | 14:34 |
| kc2bez | It should see all three partitions. | 14:34 |
| ^AuGiE^ | damn my damn my LXqt was popin too | 14:35 |
| ^AuGiE^ | i had made my own conky scripts an all | 14:36 |
| kc2bez | Backups are important :P | 14:36 |
| ^AuGiE^ | maybe i can go in there and copy my scripts | 14:36 |
| ^AuGiE^ | ill open the pc up an put it in a sata to usb adapter i got | 14:37 |
| kc2bez | You might be able to mount the partition in Kubuntu and copy them over as long as they are not corrupted | 14:37 |
| ^AuGiE^ | im lookin now | 14:38 |
| kc2bez | Seriously though backups are a good idea when messing around with partitioning | 14:38 |
| ^AuGiE^ | ha im in there | 14:39 |
| ^AuGiE^ | great!!! | 14:39 |
| ^AuGiE^ | u sure i cant go in there and reconf my lubuntu boot | 14:39 |
| ^AuGiE^ | in lubuntu part | 14:40 |
| kc2bez | I don't really know which part is having the issue. It likely will take more effort than a re-install. | 14:41 |
| ^AuGiE^ | i guess | 14:42 |
| ^AuGiE^ | at least i can go and save all my files , i can even save come config files an just paste them in new install | 14:43 |
| kc2bez | I would just worry that there are other issues you don't initially catch visually. I am not sure how much I would trust it | 14:43 |
| kc2bez | I think that is a good course of action | 14:43 |
| ^AuGiE^ | i dont care about kubuntu much its a new install i didnt set it up yet | 14:44 |
| ^AuGiE^ | i can save the whole lubuntu partition on a flash thou and pick at it later | 14:45 |
| ^AuGiE^ | u been alot of help kc2bez , but 1 more ? | 14:46 |
| ^AuGiE^ | :) | 14:46 |
| kc2bez | Sure thing | 14:46 |
| ^AuGiE^ | am i going about this wrong... cant i just install KDE WM on lubuntu and pick either to use on login | 14:47 |
| kc2bez | Well, you can but sometimes things get a little messy when you do that. You can end up with extra packages and whatnot. | 14:48 |
| ^AuGiE^ | ok cool | 14:48 |
| ^AuGiE^ | u the man kc2bez | 14:48 |
| ^AuGiE^ | wait... | 14:49 |
| ^AuGiE^ | u aint a woman right | 14:49 |
| * kc2bez he/him | 14:49 | |
| ^AuGiE^ | although a linux woman is kinda sexy | 14:49 |
| ^AuGiE^ | :) | 14:49 |
| kc2bez | But it is good to be inclusive | 14:50 |

| ^AuGiE^ | getting my gf into linux | 14:50 |
| ^AuGiE^ | she wont do the configing but i set lubuntu up on her pc | 14:50 |
| kc2bez | Sounds good ^AuGiE^ Good luck! | 14:51 |

| ^AuGiE^ | they forget they were there 1s | 14:52 |
| ^AuGiE^ | ok off for backup an reinstall | 14:56 |
| jix-freedman | Hello, can someone point me to a tutorial on how to change the default resolution? I'm running nomachine as a server and would like to have a resolution larger than 1024X768 | 19:02 |
| jix-freedman | Sorry, I'm running Nomachine headless. | 19:02 |
| LimeOn | jix-freedman: have you tried "lxqt-config-monitor" in terminal? | 19:06 |
| jix-freedman | LimeOn: That just brings up the monitor settings window correct? The issue is that I do not have a monitor running so that window is empty/no options. | 19:07 |
| jix-freedman | LimeOn: I do not have a monitor plugged in at all, IE I am running it headless. | 19:09 |
| LimeOn | i see, i relly do not know how to do it without a monitor, sorry | 19:09 |
| jix-freedman | LimeOn: Thanks anyways. Lubuntu has a default resolution of 1024X768 .... somewhere there is a configuration file to change that. | 19:10 |
| JohnDoe_71Rus | iirc remmina has setup for resolution | 19:20 |

| jix-freedman | Hello, can someone point me to a tutorial on how to change the default resolution? I'm running nomachine as a server and would like to have a resolution larger than 1024X768 | 23:07 |
| wxl | https://manual.lubuntu.me/stable/3/3.2/3.2.10/monitor_settings.html | 23:09 |
| jix-freedman | Sorry I had to restart to try to a fix for the resolution error if anyone responded please respond again. | 23:30 |
| jix-freedman | Does anyone know how to change the default resolution from 1020X768 to a higher resolution when no lcd monitor is installed? | 23:30 |
| wxl | https://manual.lubuntu.me/stable/3/3.2/3.2.10/monitor_settings.html | 23:31 |
| jix-freedman | wxl: thank you. There is no monitor installed on this box. I am using Nomachine to remote into it. The "Monitor settings" window is empty of information. | 23:32 |
| jix-freedman | wxl: IE there are no monitors to choose from to change the settings on. | 23:32 |
| wxl | jix-freedman: i'm pretty sure nomachine has some specific requirements for headless machines, so you should inquire with them. i will say that you should be able to use the `xrandr` command to add any resolution you want as long as there is a display card to work with | 23:33 |
| jix-freedman | wxl: Nomachine has the ability to change the resolution, but alas, I can not figure it out. The slider does not work and when I set the resolution in the server it does not work. So I figured I'd try to find a config file for Lubuntu and change that. | 23:35 |
| wxl | jix-freedman: https://www.nomachine.com/AR02M00836&an=headless%20resolution | 23:38 |
| jix-freedman | wxl: Thanks, it seems complicated to turn off my xserver but possibly a solution. | 23:42 |
| wxl | jix-freedman: like i said, nomachine has its own requirements. you should really post to their forum for the best solution. | 23:43 |
| jix-freedman | wxl: So there is not a way to change the default resolution in Lubuntu to something other thant 1024X768? | 23:47 |
| wxl | jix-freedman: did i not mention xrandr? | 23:48 |
| jix-freedman | wxl: to the best of my knowledge xrandr is just a way to change the resolution to a different resolution. Not a way to perneantly change the default resolution in a config file somewhere. But if you are telling me that is the way then okay. | 23:50 |
| wxl | jix-freedman: it can add resolutions, change resolutions, and do any number of things. it's not permanent but there are a plethora of ways to make it so by running the xrandr command at boot, upon login, etc. | 23:51 |
