| [00:35] <acecipher> If you navigate to where it is in a terminal, you should be able to untar it. | |
| [00:36] <acecipher> Yeah, the command would be this: | |
| [00:37] <acecipher> tar xvzf OnLive_Ubuntu_Unpackaged.tar.gz | |

| [01:48] <gues[t]_10101> Is there any difference between installing eclipse on lubuntu and installing it on ubuntu? ( I mean when installing latest version by downloading from the eclipse website). | |

| [01:53] <absk007> how to disable timestamp? | |
| [01:54] <acecipher> Where, here? What client are you using? | |
| [02:31] <absk007> how to disable timestamp in lubuntu for files to protect my HDD from excessive wear? | |
| [02:33] <rww> Linux has used the relatime mount option for ext4 for a decent amount of time, which practically does this. If (after reading about relatime) you think turning them off entirely is a good idea, add the noatime option to /etc/fstab | |
| [02:33] <rww> I leave it to you and `man fstab` to figure out how, since it's not a particularly useful idea. | |
| [07:53] <manolos> Hello. I have a problem with lxde on ubuntu 14.04 (not lubuntu). when i click logout from menu i get nothing. on terminal when i run lxde-logout or lxsession-logout i get no output or anything. only when i run the command with sudo. how can i correct the problem? | |
| [07:54] <manolos> (when i run sudo lxsession-logout i get the windows with reboot,shutdown.. etc) | |
| [07:55] <manolos> in other words i can get to the logout menu as a simple user | |
| [07:55] <manolos> i cant* | |
| [08:01] <testdr> manolos: looks like you have mangeled your installation - could be only the user-configuration, what you can test with a new created user-account with admin rights - but if it is the same with a fresh user-account, you are fighting with other installed and running desktop-tools from other desktops like unity, gnome, kde, ... etc. | |
| [08:03] <testdr> manolos: if you want to go for lxde-desktop - there is the lubuntu-live/install version and it could be more easy and quicker to do a fresh install, than trying to figure out what you have running in the background or what was not started. | |
| [08:04] <manolos> thank you | |
| [08:04] <manolos> is lubuntu 14.04, lts? | |
| [16:29] <random_111> Hi everyone. I need to ask a quick question regarding dualbooting. I have a windows vista laptop. It's very slow, and I want to dualboot it with lubutu 1404. Is there any risk of destroying my windows install by hitting "install alongside windows" when installing from a usb stick? Thanks. | |
| [16:30] <holstein> !dualboot | |

| [16:31] <holstein> random_111: you should always have *all* important data backed up, regardless.. there is no "risk" or destroying data, but, a factual gurantee that that hard drive *will* fail sooner or later | |
| [16:32] <random_111> Thanks. I have a MS Office 2007 install on vist, that I don't want to lose... Do you know of any ways to backup Office. Thanks. | |
| [16:32] <random_111> vista* | |
| [16:33] <holstein> random_111: no.. you *will* lose it.. when that hard drive fails.. they all do.. sooner or later | |
| [16:34] <holstein> random_111: nothing about linux or lubuntu or ubuntu is preventing mircosoft from providing you a way to back that application up. but, AFAIK, there is no way that they allow for easily doing that per application | |
| [16:34] <holstein> i would make a clone backup of the entire OS, if need be.. using clonezilla, for example | |
| [16:35] <holstein> with a clone image, you can recover from that image when you have hard drive isssus, or breakage from misconfiguration | |
| [16:35] <random_111> Okay, I will look into it. Thank you very much guys. Very effective way to get your technical q's answered. Thanks | |
