[16:24] <sarbojit> Hi, how do I subscribe to lubuntu-desktop mailing list ?
[16:25] <leszek> sarbojit: see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Lubuntu/ContactUs/ for the details
[16:26] <sarbojit> Yes, I am there only.
[16:26] <sarbojit> My actual intention to be a part of lubuntu developers team as a programmer myself I would like to contribute, I just do not know where to begin.
[16:28] <leszek> sarbojit: just introduce yourself on the mailinglist I would say
[16:28] <sarbojit> Thank you leszek, I will do that.
[16:49] <blackwolf12333> ehm i need help, i can't get qt4 working on my lubuntu, how do i get that to work?
[16:53] <sarbojit> what exactly is the problem you are facing blackwolf12333 ?
[16:53] <blackwolf12333> i want to install lmms
[16:53] <blackwolf12333> but that depends on qt4
[16:53] <blackwolf12333> which i don't have
[16:54] <sarbojit> apt-cache search libqt4-gui
[16:55] <blackwolf12333> output is: libqt4-gui - transitional package for Qt 4 GUI runtime libraries
[16:56] <blackwolf12333> so i should just apt-get install libqt3-gui and core?
[16:56] <blackwolf12333> libqt4-gui*
[17:01] <blackwolf12333> hmm, i think i get it to work now:)
[17:01] <blackwolf12333> thanks
[17:03] <sarbojit> :)
[17:05] <blackwolf12333> there is one other thing, when i put my headphone in, the sound from my boxes doesn't stop, so i hear the sound through my headphone and my boxes, is it possible to fix that?
[17:07] <sarbojit> Sorry, I do not have answer to that question.
[17:07] <blackwolf12333> :/
[17:26] <linelevel> Hi guys. Where can I find instructions for creating a bootable Lubuntu USB drive? I tried using usb-creator-gtk with the Lubuntu ISO (same thing I would do for Ubuntu, juts different ISO), but it doesn't work. Any suggestions?
[17:31] <smile4ever> linelevel: use UNetBootin instead :)
[17:31] <smile4ever> it's very straightforward
[17:31] <smile4ever> :)
[17:32] <linelevel> Thanks! Looking it up now.
[17:32] <smile4ever> first download ISO, then open unetbootin & select iso ;) and follow the steps :)
[17:32] <smile4ever> (make sure your thumb drive is empty)

[17:43] <blackwolf12333> guys i need some more help, now my sound doesn't do anything, or my lmms is not configured properly, but i don't know anything about it:P
[17:50] <cheryl> bioterror, Sad news, I've made a return to Ubuntu!! :(
[17:50] <bioterror> then you cant turn on the batlight anymore
[17:51] <cheryl> bioterror, But I also managed to sort my pc into a dual boot machine so can end my quest to understand guvcview!! lol
[17:51] <cheryl> no I can't, but I thought I'd come say good bye at least! :)
[17:51] <cheryl> 'I can ask you generic info, can't I?
[17:52] <cheryl> Like, without opening the box, can I see wot soundcard I have, or is that to be answered by the Ubuntu guys?
[17:52] <zleap> lspci
[17:52] <zleap> may do it
[17:52] <cheryl> aw thanks zleap. ;)
[17:52] <zleap> np
[17:53] <cheryl> Man, do guys know how tedious 'n depressing installing 'doze is??? :(
[17:53] <zleap> at times it can be
[17:53] <cheryl> I almost lost the will to live!! It cannot perform without you installing 'n rebooting a zillion times!!
[17:53] <zleap> cheryl, there is also dmidecode,
[17:53] <cheryl> linux is soooo easy!!
[17:54] <cheryl> wot's that zleap?
[17:54] <zleap> i had real issues when i neglected to tell windows install the correct country, it accused me of having apiracted copy of windows
[17:55] <zleap> demidecode like lspci but a lot lot more detailed
[17:55] <cheryl> LMAO...well mine wouldn't install my dongle until I had at least service pack 1 installed so I quickly installed linux, plugged in dongle 'n away I went!!
[17:55] <cheryl> Good 'cos this sound is built into the m/b!
[17:56] <cheryl> God knows I can't use the sound on my pc without drivers, funny it just works in linux!!
[17:57] <zleap> yeah i have had that too
[17:57] <zleap> windows doesm't work, wants xyz drivers and its a pain setting them up, linux works
[17:58] <valdur55> it's normal case :)
[17:58] <zleap> actually linux is excellent for listing what hardware you have, so you then go tell windows what you have
[17:58] <zleap> much nicer
[17:58] <cheryl> Yup, all I know is my m/b is intel and dmidecode gives me stuff I don't understand!! :(
[17:58] <cheryl> It's Phoenix bios, mean anything 2 u? Will cmos tell me make 'n model?
[17:59] <zleap> if you read through the output for references to audio, sound etc
[17:59] <cheryl> oh I'll go figure it out somehow.

[23:54] <linelevel> Does anyone here have experience getting Lubuntu to boot from USB? My attempts using both usb-creator-gtk and unetbootin have failed.
