[00:53] just installed lubuntu, are there any light weight packages I can install to get "hot corner" features? compiz is out of the question for this old machine... [00:53] maybe my "aptitude why" skills are bad but is the latest dist-upgrade pulling qt4-designer for standard-lubuntu?

[01:22] Unit193: Would you be so kind as to create a wiki page for "customisation"? [01:23] Unit193: with the ML discussing what apps are going to be in 12.10, now is a good a time as any :) [01:24] Meh, it{s already on 神癒礁湖{s blog. [01:24] ?? [01:36] Do you know where I can find an article listing the differences in software between lubuntu and ubuntu ( other than the window manager ) ? [01:37] question, is he lubuntu CD a 'live' cd ? [01:37] is he lubunu CD a "live" CD ?* [01:37] is the lubuntu CD a "live" CD?* ( the t key on my keyboard is sticky ) === KAISforza is now known as KaiSforza [01:58] Hello! Do you know if Lubuntu can run in a Pentium I? [02:00] Speed and 12.04 wouldn't as I'm sure that doesn't support PAE. [02:00] Well, you'd have to go from mini. [02:18] Unit193: And if there's no swap? [02:18] As you still haven't said full specs, I'm going to assume low and say I don't think so. [02:21] Unit193: I don't have full specs, the PCs are not mine. I'll check everything beforehand. Thanks [02:22] Remember about 12.04 and that you will need different steps if it doesn't support PAE, as well as the other restrictions of the Ubuntu kernel. [02:23] Hmm, right. [02:26] Unit193: I have a prob, there's no Internet connection in the place where the PCs are, so I can't fetch any packages :S [02:27] !offline [02:27] If you need to download Ubuntu packages using another machine or OS, check the desired packages in Synaptic and select File > Generate package download script.

Thanks! === CTtechguy_ is now known as CTtechguy === CTtechguy_ is now known as CTtechguy === Mohan_chml is now known as M0hi [07:52] pomoc [08:10] Hi [08:11] I wanted to add the volume icon on the panel because it had disappeared [08:13] So I tried to add it, but did not appear on the desktop [08:14] Then I discovered that it was a bug [08:15] https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/lxpanel/+bug/824659 [08:15] Launchpad bug 824659 in lxpanel (Ubuntu) "/usr/lib/lxpanel/plugins/volumealsa.so not showing" [Undecided,Confirmed] [08:16] But I did not realize how the user had solved [08:18] So I deleted the lxpanel directory in .config and I rebooted the system [08:19] But the panel was missing on startup [08:20] creating a new folder, from pcmanfm I managed to open a terminal and type lxpanel [08:20] but the terminal returns: [08:21] here is already an instance of LXPanel. Now to exit [08:21] *there [08:21] What can I do to restore the panel? [08:32] cristian_c try pkill lxpanel and then restart it you have deleteed the config for the whole bar so it don't apper but started up on boot [08:34] If that doesn't work, whatever changes you may have done, try reverting to see if that helps. [08:35] I try to logout [08:35] :) [09:03] hello [09:04] i get permission denied when trying to open the mounted partition in pcmanfm [09:04] this is happening only for the partition that it is fa32 [09:04] fat32 [09:05] i have not problems with other mounted partitions ntfs [09:05] where is the problem [09:37] I restored the panel [09:37] :) [09:38] I do not know how to see the volume applet on the panel [09:38] :( [09:38] Do you have any idea? [09:42] *ideas [09:49] Is 12.04 in beta now? [09:49] Akls: yes [09:51] Akis, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1870442 [09:52] Akls: but i does not matter if it is alpha or beta, both are NOT designed for normal work [09:54] hmmm... [09:54] I have to install something, but I don't want to reinstall it 1 month later because of the new release [09:55] Akls: you dont have to reinstall [09:55] !upgrade | Akls [09:55] Akls: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes - see also http://www.ubuntu.com/desktop/get-ubuntu/upgrade [09:55] a big NO for upgrades [09:56] Akls: and also there is no reason to upgrade to the latest version just because it is the newest one [09:56] did it about 3 times in my life, every time something broke so I had to reinstall anyway... [09:57] but 12.04 is just 1 month from release, isn't it going to work ok? :) [09:57] I understand the risks :> [09:57] 2 month [09:57] and as i said DONT use 12.04 for normal work at the moment [09:58] hm ok 1.5 month [09:58] ok :) [09:59] and normally the upgrade will not broke if you dont install software from other sources [09:59] the normal (l)ubuntu upgrade is tested very good [09:59] but of course there can be problems so having a backup is always a good idea (not only when upgrading) [10:00] and for problems during the upgrade this channel is a good place, so i would suggest install 11.10 and if you need 12.04 later upgrade to that (but not on the first day just because 12.04 is newer) [10:14] WTF. [10:15] 11.10 install does not detect 11.04 and windows installed :\ [10:20] dammit!... [10:21] Akls: what's the problem? :o [10:22] smile4ever, I remember ubuntu had very nice feature in installer to backup files from previous install [10:22] smile4ever, but now it thinks that nothing is installed on my hdd, that's not true :\ === mh0- is now known as mh0 [10:23] Akls: grub problem? :p [10:25] why grub problem? O_o [10:25] if I can boot to my old system [10:25] And the files are on your hd? :p [10:26] yep [10:28] Akls: Crazy :| [10:28] smile4ever, well, I think I can work around without reinstalling lubuntu [10:28] great :) Good luck :) [10:28] smile4ever, why I want to reinstall is because 10.04 started to throw dbus errors when I launch any program [10:29] Hi. [10:29] smile4ever, I didn't even update or upgrade :\ what happened? [10:29] JadedJacob, hi :) [10:29] a config file may be corrupted.. :| [10:29] So "lsb_release -a" in the terminal prints out the ubuntu release version [10:30] But for lubuntu, it still prints "ubuntu 11.04" [10:30] Is there a command to print out "lubuntu 11.04" as the release version [10:30] smile4ever, which one? and how can I recover it? [10:31] Akls: did you try google'ing on the exact error you get? [10:31] JadedJacob: imo that was discussed on the mailinglist and fixed for 12.04 [10:32] sweet [10:32] smile4ever, but I don't get any exact error :\ [10:32] :( [10:32] Anyway, I would install Lubuntu 11.10 :) [10:32] smile4ever, network manager stopped to remember wireless keys, kupfer says something about dbus timeout, firefox says same as kupfer [10:33] smile4ever, "Failed to contact configuration server; the most common cause is missing or misconfiguer D-Bus session bus daemon" [10:33] Akls: you tried reinstalling dbus? :p [10:33] JadedJacob: hm not fixed for 12.04 but there was something about that on the mailinglist [10:33] smile4ever, how? ^^" [10:33] Akls: http://www.ehow.com/how_7553501_reinstall-dbus.html [10:34] smile4ever, I saw this one. but I can't open synaptic [10:34] smile4ever, it says "wrong password", but I'm sure 101% that the password is correct. [10:35] Akls: try sudo apt-get remove dbus* && sudo apt-get install dbus* in a terminal :) [10:35] I'm not sure if it's a good idea :\ [10:35] Akls: its not a good idea [10:36] :( [10:36] and reinstall on debian based systems is not the solution which is maybe working on windows systems [10:36] Akls: is dbus running? [10:36] iceroot, seems like yes to me, but any way to check it? [10:37] ps aux | grep dbus [10:43] iceroot, well, it gave some output [10:43] iceroot, so seems like yes [10:44] hmm.. maybe there's something wrong with my hdd... [10:45] is anyone running lubuntu on realy new hardware? [10:45] core i3/i5/i7 etc [10:56] yep, seems like my hdd problem :\\\\ [10:56] shows the whole space unallocated [11:04] sorry to holy lubuntu for thinking that it was its fault ^_^ === KaiSforza is now known as KAISforza === jalcine_ is now known as jalcine [13:16] hello [13:17] i have an error with apt-get / synaptic [13:17] libc6:amd64 2.13-20ubuntu5.1 cannot be configured because libc6:i386 is in a different version (2.13-20ubuntu5) [13:17] anyone can help please ? [13:17] google did'nt help [13:19] Gege71: which version of lubuntu are you running? [13:19] 11.10 [13:24] from a quick look at the ppa page at https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/oneiric/amd64/libc6-dev-i386/2.13-20ubuntu5.1 it seems to be complaining about the architecture of your computer / kernel fighting between 32 bit and 64 bit. My suggestion is to have a read of that page and ensure you have the "requires" and do not have the "conflicts" installed. [13:28] let's see , thanks :) [13:29] Gege71: I've called in reinforcements, Jacky is much more up to speed on this sort of stuff! [13:29] Gege71: what's your architecture? i386 (32-bt) or amd64? [13:29] amd64 [13:30] i tried to remove all package depending of libc6-i386 ... but apt-get doasn't want [13:30] What's the name of the application you're trying to install? [13:30] i only try sudo update-upgrade [13:30] Yeah, that's kind of dangerous. libc6 is like a bloodcell in the library system. [13:30] at the begininng, update-manager failed [13:31] ok but why i386 version, i didn't want it ! [13:31] Odd. [13:31] i only need amd64 package [13:31] :) [13:31] Did you install a i386 system or 64-bit system? [13:32] 64 bits of course [13:32] are you sure you have 64 bit installed? [13:33] uname -a [13:33] Linux ZEUS 3.0.0-16-generic #28-Ubuntu SMP Fri Jan 27 17:44:39 UTC 2012 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux [13:33] yup, thats 64 bit :) [13:34] There might be a package installed that only has a i386 version available. [13:34] But as to why dpkg would let it install wscapes me. [13:34] *escapes [13:35] "multi-arch" is the answer : https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MultiarchSpec [13:35] Try "sudo apt-get upgrade -f" [13:36] lol [13:36] ok, doesn't work neither ... [13:36] Gege71: he has a flakey internet connection. [13:37] hehe [13:37] jalcine: have a read of https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/oneiric/amd64/libc6-dev-i386/2.13-20ubuntu5.1 it may as well be written in Chinese for me, but may give some hints? [13:38] * jalcine can't view that page.. the sll block :/ [13:38] *ssl [13:39] jalcine: http://pastebin.com/xZPLifbP [13:40] not pretty, but it works :) [13:41] Hmmm. Interesting library. [13:42] Provides support for i386 apps on amd64. [13:42] jalcine: I thought it would interest you :) [13:43] in fact... wine1.3 needs libc6-i386 [13:43] That'd be great if I had a amd64 system, could build apps for other system w/o a problem. [13:43] i would never install it :( [13:43] how do i force ubuntu to show the grub boot loader during boot time? [13:43] what is the key i use? [13:43] jalcine: Gege71 as this is not strictly lubuntu related could you guys switch channels? #sii is quiet at the moment [13:45] ahhh i think it's 'shift' [13:45] JadedJacob: you got it. [13:45] i'm running ubuntu 10 as a guest machine on windows 7 [13:46] using virtualbox [13:48] i think i'm going to buy a book on linux and grub [13:51] JadedJacob: you can download one for free :) [14:50] hi guys, what is the package name for netbook interface in lubuntu? [14:52] petsounds, it's lubuntu-netbook session , log out and select lubuntu-netbook session :) [14:55] hi valdur55 i'm lloking for the package name in packages.ubuntu.com [14:55] is it nebook EFL ? [14:57] err i mean netbook-launcher-efl [14:57] o.o You just have to switch sessions, petsounds [14:59] lubuntu-deskop or lubuntu-core package [15:02] jalcine, i want to download the pkgs so i can install it later on a different netbook :) [15:09] the thing is i can't seem to find that interface in debian lxde, so im looking to download the package from ubuntu repo.
