[01:04] <corvus_> Any idea why Wine isn't showing in the LXDE menu? I can see it in /usr/share/applications.
[01:05] <Unit193> Is there an "Only show in" in that desktop file?
[01:06] <corvus_> No. It's read and write.
[01:06] <Unit193> Also, you normally just get the windows application you need and double click on that.
[01:07] <corvus_> Ah, ok. It's my second go around with Lubuntu, and I just remember it showing in the menu before.
[01:07] <Unit193> Remember that you may need to mark the application as executable.
[01:08] <corvus_> Tried that...said "operation not permitted"
[01:08] <Unit193> Where is that file? CD?
[01:08] <corvus_> /usr/share/applications
[01:09] <Unit193> Ah, no. The exe file you want to run, that file is fine as is.
[01:09] <corvus_> It shows Winetricks and Wine Windows Program Loader.
[01:11] <corvus_> Hrm. I clicked on "Browse C:Drive"...now it's in the menu.
[01:11] <corvus_> Go figure.
[01:15] <Unit193> Heh.

[06:33] <Unit193> Same computer?
[06:38] <JohnDoe_71Rus> no. but the same interface work on other ubuntu 10.04
[06:38] <Unit193> Are you sure there isn't an IP conflict?
[06:39] <Unit193> Also, the device may change.
[06:40] <JohnDoe_71Rus> 11.10 standalone. internet get gsm, connect after login
[06:40] <JohnDoe_71Rus> br0 is wirtual device
[06:41] <Unit193> I take it you have already checked the logs in /var/log?
[06:42] <JohnDoe_71Rus> whtat log file?
[06:43] <Unit193> syslog is a generic one to check, but it'll have more than just that.
[06:44] <Unit193> http://uksysadmin.wordpress.com/2011/10/14/upgrade-to-ubuntu-11-10-problem-waiting-for-network-configuration-then-black-screen-solution/ This look like your problem?
[06:45] <JohnDoe_71Rus> Unit193: lubuntu is new install
[06:46] <Unit193> What happens if you configure it via nm-applet?
[06:53] <JohnDoe_71Rus> part of syslog http://pastebin.com/uuNX7Xvb
[06:54] <JohnDoe_71Rus> nm-applet can't help. i need br0 to combine with wlan0 use hostapd
[06:55] <JohnDoe_71Rus> with nm-applet start AP no success
[06:58] <Unit193> Sorry, never used GSM and there doesn't seem like much I can help with here.
[07:00] <JohnDoe_71Rus> no. gsm not the reason, then i comment br0 system start normaly
[07:02] <Unit193> I got that, just that I haven't had anything like this setup.

[14:58] <student1> hi lububtu
[15:01] <ptrkmj> I accidently deleted (xdg-desktop-menu uninstall) logout-lubuntu.desktop file (name=Shutdown) in /usr/share/applications. Can someone send me it or is it hosted somewhere maybe?
[17:30] <ptrkmj> Does lubuntu feature program to scale jpeg files from command line?
[17:31] <ptrkmj> (out-of-the-box)
[17:42] <iceroot> ptrkmj: no you have to install imagemagick
[18:13] <perkele> Hello ive installed lubuntu on USB drive using pendrivelinux wizard. It works alright but whenever I reboot my computer it resets desktop, settings, etc.
[18:14] <perkele> With Ubuntu it doesnt do that
[18:14] <ikonia> it's because you are not saving your settings anywhere
[18:14] <ikonia> it means it treats it the same as a livecd
[18:18] <perkele> I ticked the option persistent size so it should have somewhere to save them. That worked for regular Ubuntu
