| [06:05] <lubuntu214> hey guys! | |
| [06:05] <lubuntu214> why does lubuntu have a photo manager? | |
| [06:06] <lubuntu214> I'd recommend Shotwell. Its simple fairly lightweight. also it is Desktop independent so doesn't require a ton of gnome specific libraries. | |
| [06:07] <holstein> you mean, why doesnt it? | |
| [06:07] <holstein> could be that its assumed you might use a web service | |
| [06:07] <holstein> not sure... i peronally hadnt missed it yet | |
| [06:08] <holstein> its challenging to please everyone... but i would say file a bug about it | |
| [06:08] <holstein> those are taken seriously | |
| [06:08] <bioterror> we have soon software suggestions for next spin | |
| [06:08] <bioterror> join mailing list and take part | |
| [06:09] <lubuntu214> okay | |
| [06:10] <lubuntu214> well most linux distros come with a photo manager and most people have some time of photo taking device. | |
| [06:10] <lubuntu214> kind* | |
| [06:10] <bioterror> http://packages.ubuntu.com/oneiric/shotwell | |
| [06:10] <lubuntu214> I know that you can't have everything I just thought to add | |
| [06:11] <holstein> its *so* small and light too... i appreciate that | |
| [06:11] <holstein> light but slick looking | |
| [06:11] <lubuntu214> yes it is nice looking | |
| [06:11] <lubuntu214> it runs fast for uploading photos on my point in shoot | |
| [06:11] <bioterror> filemanager is my photomanager :D | |
| [06:11] <bioterror> I can right click image and edit it with GIMP ) | |
| [06:11] <bioterror> ;) | |
| [06:12] <lubuntu214> true | |
| [06:12] <holstein> yeah, i just put them in a directory | |
| [06:12] <bioterror> yeah | |
| [06:12] <lubuntu214> but its nice to have an app to organize it | |
| [06:12] <holstein> i dont like/need the bigger music organizers either | |
| [06:12] <bioterror> year/month/day/ | |
| [06:12] <lubuntu214> yeah I don't like those | |
| [06:12] <bioterror> that's how I do it | |
| [06:12] <lubuntu214> I like the music app provided with lubuntu | |
| [06:13] <lubuntu214> the other players have way too much features and plugins slows the player down and makes it complexed to use | |
| [06:13] <bioterror> lubuntu214, I'm sure that the lubuntu community is eager to hear how that application performs with pentium II devices ;) | |
| [06:13] <lubuntu214> well I am not sure about those devices | |
| [06:14] <bioterror> application is acceptable if it doesnt take any cpu or ram | |
| [06:14] <lubuntu214> most people don't have those anymore and you can get donated pcs with much better cpus | |
| [06:14] <bioterror> hahaha | |
| [06:14] <bioterror> you really have not been in here for long | |
| [06:14] <lubuntu214> freegeekchicago.org | |
| [06:15] <holstein> either way, its nice having something light *and* modern | |
| [06:15] <lubuntu214> yeah | |
| [06:15] <lubuntu214> I love lubuntu | |
| [06:15] <bioterror> if you need shotwell, you can install it | |
| [06:15] <bioterror> just like any application | |
| [06:15] <lubuntu214> yeah I know | |
| [06:15] <lubuntu214> I just thought to suggest | |
| [06:16] <lubuntu214> well I already know to use the bug reports and other things which I can better prepare my argument and conclusion. | |
| [06:16] <bioterror> no devels here atm. use mailing list ;) | |
| [06:16] <lubuntu214> okay | |
| [06:17] <lubuntu214> even if you have a fast PC I still prefer a lightweight desktop cause its super fast | |
| [06:17] <bioterror> but be prepared for people demanding benchmarks | |
| [06:17] <lubuntu214> hates slowness | |
| [06:18] <lubuntu214> getting a 1gb ram upgrade soon hopefully lubuntu will be even faster! | |
| [06:18] <lubuntu214> 2gb ram total! | |
| [06:18] <bioterror> !! | |
| [06:18] <bioterror> you can grab 4GB of 1333MHz DDR3 from me for 15 euros | |
| [06:19] <lubuntu214> sorry buddy my laptop doesn't take that | |
| [06:19] <lubuntu214> I already paid for it on amazon | |
| [06:19] <lubuntu214> my laptop takes pc2700 max is 1gb | |
| [06:20] <bioterror> these dell's sucks, 2GB is max | |
| [06:20] <bioterror> I should downgrade that 64bit to 32bit | |
| [06:20] <holstein> you think it matters as much on a server bioterror ? | |
| [06:20] <holstein> the 64bit on 2gb of ram? | |
| [06:20] <bioterror> desktop usage | |
| [06:21] <bioterror> Dell D420 and D430 has limited it to max 2GB | |
| [06:21] <bioterror> crappy chipset that is | |
| [06:21] <lubuntu214> that blows | |
| [06:21] <holstein> i forget what i have but its got 2gb's of ram, and i did 64bit CLI only install | |
| [06:21] <holstein> seems OK so far | |
| [06:21] <holstein> couple weeks | |
| [06:21] <lubuntu214> probably a way to force you to spend more | |
| [06:22] <lubuntu214> so you can the ones that don't have that limit | |
| [06:22] <bioterror> put 64bit CPU, limit RAM to 2GB :D | |
| [06:23] <bioterror> larger address space has it's benefits and cons | |
| [06:23] <lubuntu214> what's the ram limit for 64bit? | |
| [06:24] <bioterror> 12301923+12893901289381923 :D | |
| [06:24] <lubuntu214> my laptop is limited to 2gb | |
| [06:24] <lubuntu214> but that's because it is 32bit | |
| [06:24] <bioterror> 32bit is ~3GB | |
| [06:24] <lubuntu214> if I remember correctly 32bit's limit is 32bit | |
| [06:24] <lubuntu214> oh okay | |
| [06:24] <lubuntu214> well its my chipset then | |
| [06:26] <lubuntu214> do you really need dual core to use HD webcams on lubuntu if you have the ram requires just not the dual core part? | |
| [06:26] <lubuntu214> 1.6ghz with 2gb ram | |
| [06:26] <lubuntu214> I'd presume it'd work on lubuntu for sure but hell no on windows | |
| [06:26] <lubuntu214> with that hardware | |
| [06:27] <bioterror> I dunno, I have one microsoft webcam there for my wife | |
| [06:27] <bioterror> but never used it | |
| [06:27] <lubuntu214> oh I see | |
| [06:27] <bioterror> my phone can record 720p video | |
| [06:27] <lubuntu214> watch out your wife could have secret skype boyfriends! | |
| [06:28] <lubuntu214> just joking... | |
| [06:28] <lubuntu214> teasin' yea bro! | |
| [06:28] <bioterror> last time I checked, she didnt have skype account nor skype installed ;) | |
| [09:25] <johnnyzero> Hey guys I have a question. How can I fix the default session of Lubuntu? I tried to mess around with the start menu and I screwed it up. Now it only contains the logout choice with no categories. Yet in the other sessions, the menu appears normal. How do I fix this? | |

| [13:30] <JadedJacob> hi. | |
| [13:31] <JadedJacob> anyone running lubuntu on a pentium 4 2.4ghz or similar? | |
| [14:14] <leszek> hi | |
| [15:13] <lubuntu214> if you have hp all in one printer. you need hplip installed to use scanner. printer works fine without hplip | |
| [16:41] <leszek> re | |
| [18:28] <jellow> Hi there I've just installed lubuntu onto a usb stick , Though grub is messed up how do I re-install it and stop it probing my other non-related hds ? | |
| [18:34] <Unit193> You installed it to a flash drive? You needed to use a tool like unetbootin and enable persistant mode | |
| [18:34] <Unit193> persistent | |
| [18:36] <jellow> I used unetbootin and created a usb , where I ran the install and onto an sd card .. | |
| [18:37] <Unit193> You installed onto an SD card, for that one computer I'd hope? | |
| [18:38] <jellow> No I was hoping to use the sd card on multiple computers , Does it not work like that? | |
| [18:38] <Unit193> Not really | |
| [18:39] <Unit193> For a persistent live USB install, see: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LiveUsbPendrivePersistent | |
| [18:40] <jellow> Even a tool for it ! Great | |
| [18:40] <Unit193> Are you using windows to make it? | |
| [18:41] <jellow> no Ubuntu | |
| [18:44] <jellow> Thanks will try that need to close irssi to umount /mnt | |

| [20:10] <witeds> greetings i have a question and an issue when i try to share internet to another lubuntu computer my connection on the host to that ethernet port constantly connects and disconnects | |
| [20:11] <witeds> any ideas how to fix this? | |
| [20:12] <bioterror> does it loose link or something else? | |
| [20:12] <bioterror> how did you share it? | |
| [20:14] <witeds> went to network connections edit and shared to other computers on the normal ubuntu this worked | |
| [20:14] <witeds> but for lubuntu 11.10 it seems to be connecting and disconnnecting slowing down if not halting networking for the other computer | |
| [20:16] <witeds> oh also my ahavi network discovery deamon keeps getting shut off du to my isp's router running linux and having a .local name could this be contributing and when i remove the disabler script it comes back | |
| [20:24] <witeds> nvm problem solved with the shared connection | |
| [20:24] <witeds> but i still need that avahi discovery daemon | |
| [22:02] <xsaidx> hello guys | |
| [22:03] <Timo_> hey lads, I'm trying to install Linux on my fathers laptop, but it keeps crashing in the installer when moving to the partitioner. I've tried: Linux Mint 9 & 11 64 bit, Ubuntu 11.10 32 bit, Lubuntu 11.10 64 bit and Minimal install 64 bit, anyone knows what this could be? | |
| [22:05] <stlsaint> Timo_: sounds like a hardware issue | |
| [22:05] <stlsaint> xsaidx: sup | |
| [22:06] <Timo_> stlsaint: that's what I thought. I also tried installing it through Windows, with the wubi installer and that failed because 'windows iso backend was unkown' | |
| [22:06] <Timo_> or something like that anyways | |
| [22:06] <Timo_> But the odd thing is, I looked the laptop (Dell Latitude E5400) up on the internet, and it gave good reviews for linux | |
| [22:07] <xsaidx> stlsaint: fine thanks and you ,, i ve got a question how to re-split the screen in a screen session for ex i split it to 3 sceens how can i go back to only 2 screens ?? | |
| [22:07] <Timo_> and the Live CD works like a charm, running from the USB is already really fast :) | |
| [22:13] <Timo_> stlsaint: a 'hardware issue', does that mean my hardware is broken, or that the hardware is unsupported? | |
| [22:17] <Timo_> mm I found out why the wubi didn't work..I'm gonna try it via wubi again...hope it will work :) | |
| [22:31] <Timo_> I hope that this will hope! It would be a bummer if it wouldn't work...I really want my dad to learn linux :D | |
| [22:40] <Timo_> Wauw! I installed Lubuntu through wubi, and now I start up in a Ubuntu 11.10 distro | |
| [22:40] <Timo_> that's super weird | |
| [22:41] <Timo_> How can that ever happen :D I took the Lubuntu 64 bit cd, and now it installed Ubuntu, how the hell can that happen?:D | |
| [22:46] <Myrtti> well, if you're planning to leave the installation to be used for more than a few weeks, wubi isn't the option I'd recommend anyway | |
| [22:52] <Timo_> Myrtti: I know, but installing it the normal way doesn't work... :( | |
| [23:14] <Myrtti> oh well | |
