| [00:27] <silverarrow> hi | |
| [00:27] <silverarrow> any ibook users here? | |
| [00:27] <silverarrow> or preveous iBook users | |
| [00:52] <Lukah> I've install rxvt-unicode-256colors and I don't have a menu entry for it. Does lubuntu use .desktop files for the menu? | |
| [00:55] <Lukah> nm, finally found how to refresh the menu | |
| [01:04] <silverarrow> hi | |
| [09:09] <Galeade> hi | |
| [09:10] <Galeade> where can i find themes for lxde ? | |
| [09:27] <melodie_> hello | |
| [12:35] <silverarrow> I have just managed to install 12-04 on the G4 ibook | |
| [12:36] <silverarrow> I have trouble with booting down, it doesn't do it properly | |
| [12:36] <silverarrow> it sort of hangs with a black screen and a few clourded bits on the screen | |
| [12:36] <silverarrow> I got help with the live boot up issue | |
| [12:37] <silverarrow> apparently there is a bug that needs a command to handle the old ibook | |
| [12:38] <silverarrow> so, no idea about the shut down issue? | |
| [12:38] <silverarrow> anyone here at all? | |
| [12:38] <silverarrow> lubuntu seems to run fine | |
| [12:39] <silverarrow> just a few things that need attention | |
| [12:40] <silverarrow> hi SkippersBoss | |
| [12:40] <silverarrow> any clever with old macs? | |
| [12:41] <silverarrow> anyone here at all? | |
| [12:41] <silverarrow> it might be a general lubuntu issue though, it will not boot down smoothly | |
| [12:41] <silverarrow> or even probable | |
| [13:22] <silverarrow> how do I eject a CD in 12.04? | |
| [13:22] <silverarrow> it's one of those slots that you just push the cd in | |
| [13:23] <silverarrow> and the lubuntu cd is stuck !! | |
| [13:24] <smile> silverarrow: open pcmanfm and click the eject icon on the left pane | |
| [13:24] <smile> :p | |
| [13:24] <smile> (the file manager) | |
| [13:25] <silverarrow> oh hi | |
| [13:25] <silverarrow> archivemanager? | |
| [13:25] <silverarrow> hmm | |
| [13:26] <silverarrow> I am booted from harddisk, and 12.04 doesn't seem to call it filemanager | |
| [13:27] <silverarrow> pcmanfm ? | |
| [13:27] <silverarrow> I'm newly installed and I don't even have wireless yet | |
| [13:29] <silverarrow> there is usually a cd ikon on the desktop, but not this time | |
| [13:30] <silverarrow> do you know anything clever from terminal? | |
| [13:32] <silverarrow> oh, it popped out | |
| [13:32] <silverarrow> diskutility, | |
| [13:32] <silverarrow> disc | |
| [14:06] <silverarrow> is there a clever way to store update packages, or restriced on CD or usb memory to get wireless working ? | |
| [14:06] <silverarrow> I don't have wired connection options at all | |
| [14:06] <silverarrow> at least not here | |
| [14:25] <Na_Klar> with a plain lubuntu 11.10 installation, can I configure my default sound card? Because everything workes like a charm, but I want to switch the default sound card. At its best without installing asoundconf or pulseaudio. | |
| [14:26] <hyperair> isn't pulseaudio installed on a plain lubuntu installation? | |
| [14:27] <Na_Klar> nope | |
| [14:27] <hyperair> apt-get install lubuntu-desktop on a base precise chroot shows pulseaudio being installed. | |
| [14:27] <Na_Klar> at least not on 11.10 | |
| [14:28] <hyperair> oh 11.10 | |
| [14:28] <hyperair> let's see.. | |
| [14:28] <hyperair> nope, pulseaudio's still installed there | |
| [14:28] <hyperair> unless it's a recommends.. | |
| [14:28] <hyperair> ah i guess it is | |
| [14:29] <Na_Klar> dpkg shows just the libpulse0, which is not the pulseaudio application | |
| [14:29] <hyperair> yes | |
| [14:31] <hyperair> as for default sound card, there's something you can set in .asoundrc | |
| [14:31] <hyperair> lemme just check it up.. | |
| [14:32] <Na_Klar> as far as I know .asoundrd implies having installed asoundconf.. | |
| [14:32] <Na_Klar> *.asoundrc | |
| [14:33] <hyperair> no. | |
| [14:34] <hyperair> .asoundrc is an ALSA thing. | |
| [14:34] <hyperair> it's read by libasound | |
| [14:34] <hyperair> http://paste.debian.net/178169/ | |
| [14:35] <hyperair> if you're not using pulse, you can use this as your .asoundrc file | |
| [14:35] <hyperair> and change the 0,3 to whatever sound output device you wish to use | |
| [14:36] <silverarrow> hi | |
| [14:36] <hyperair> ah, the number comes from aplay -l | |
| [14:37] <Na_Klar> so alsa uses .asoundrc but does not create it by itself? | |
| [14:37] <hyperair> yes. | |
| [14:37] <Na_Klar> ic | |
| [14:37] <hyperair> it looks at ~/.asoundrc, if it exists | |
| [14:37] <hyperair> failing which, /etc/asound.conf | |
| [14:37] <hyperair> i think it might look at /usr/share/asound/ or something | |
| [14:37] <silverarrow> do you know about the b43 blacklist bug ? | |
| [14:37] <silverarrow> on 12.04 | |
| [14:38] <hyperair> no | |
| [14:38] <silverarrow> I am struggeling abit with boot up related to it | |
| [14:39] <silverarrow> it turns out you need to give the command "live b43.blacklist=yes" for the powerpc cd to boot on some ibooks | |
| [14:39] <silverarrow> then " Linux b43.blacklist=yes" on the first boot, and it is suppose to stick for the next bootups | |
| [14:40] <silverarrow> but I have to do it on every bootup | |
| [14:40] <hyperair> extra kernel options don't get remembered. | |
| [14:40] <hyperair> you need to put it in /etc/default/grub | |
| [14:40] <hyperair> and run update-grub | |
| [14:41] <hyperair> then your grub.cfg will be generated with the kernel option there. | |
| [14:41] <silverarrow> trouble is I haven't wired network connection here | |
| [14:41] <silverarrow> and wireless is a pain | |
| [14:42] <silverarrow> is there a clever way to store driverpackages on CD and install from there? | |
| [14:43] <hyperair> well if you know which package it is, you could do apt-get install $pkg --print-uris | |
| [14:43] <silverarrow> I need to get wired connection | |
| [14:43] <hyperair> then bring the list of URIs over to another machine, and download all the debs. | |
| [14:43] <hyperair> then place the debs in /var/cache/apt/archives/ and it should be fine. | |
| [14:43] <hyperair> i think. | |
| [14:43] <silverarrow> sounds good | |
| [14:44] <silverarrow> brb, need to boot in lubuntu | |
| [14:44] <hyperair> if you can bring it to another computer running lubuntu you could have it share its internet connection via wire | |
| [14:44] <hyperair> networkmanager has support for internet connection sharing. | |
| [14:44] <silverarrow> oh, very clever | |
| [14:45] <silverarrow> thanks | |
| [14:45] <silverarrow> do you know if there is frugal install option in the lubuntu CD? | |
| [14:45] <silverarrow> sort of wizard run thing | |
| [14:45] <hyperair> what's that? | |
| [14:46] <hyperair> frugal install? | |
| [14:46] <hyperair> some sort of minimalistic install? | |
| [14:46] <silverarrow> it's when you boot up live cd, and you have a folder on the computer harddrive where things are stored, settings, it runs like a full os but minimal storage space | |
| [14:47] <silverarrow> I have only one ibook, and the other comptuer would boot a i364 cd | |
| [14:47] <silverarrow> 386 | |
| [14:48] <silverarrow> but that might not matter much | |
| [14:48] <silverarrow> brb | |
| [14:51] <Na_Klar> hyperair, ty for the support. | |
| [14:59] <hyperair> no problem | |
| [15:13] <Na_Klar> ^^ wat? Although I modified /etc/xdg/libfm/libfm.conf and /etc/xdg/lubuntu/.../libfm.conf the ~/.config/.../ligfm.conf always backup at restart. I cannot make the modification permanent? Why not? | |

| [21:27] <melodie_> good night | |
| [22:05] <Casey> do you use xteam? | |
| [22:13] <Casey> or how do i pasta in xterm | |
| [22:38] <pcroque> Casey: Click the middle mouse button, or try Shift-Insert. | |
| [22:40] <Casey> ok well is lubuntu based on Debian | |
| [22:40] <pcroque> Yes | |
| [22:40] <Jacky> Casey: Ubuntu's based on Debian, and Lubuntu's on Ubuntu; quite polymorphic, really ;P | |
| [22:41] <Casey> ok | |
