User1: it's a lot smoother than ubuntu netbook remix
User1: chromium seems to want all my cpu while on youtube
User2: User1 are you using flash?
User3: I'm not suprised
User3: flash eats a lot of cpu
User2: you can sign up for the html5 trial with you-tube, http://www.youtube.com/html5
User1: yes, im using flash.
User2: User1 try the html5 testing out and see how you get on. html5 will eventually phase out flash.
User1: about a 25-30% improvement
User1: pretty solid for beta
User2: I know some people have found it does make a pretty decent improvement, but html5 is still in its own beta stage, so do not expect miracles, video playing is quite cpu intensive :)
User1: im trying to uninstall some programs without getting rid of the taskbar
User1: it demands that i remove the lubuntu-taskbar if i want to continue
User4: help i just installed lubuntu from scratch and the wireless card is not working
User4: i have a laptop compaq presario cq40-324la
User5: victoria, did you choose during the installation to install the third party software package?
User4: not as far as i can remember
User4: i didnt no
User5: ahh... it says during installation that it is needed for some wireless hardware.
User4: what do i do then? reinstall?
User5: no
User5: sorry is it 10.04 or 10.10
User5: ?
User4: 10.10
User5: there should be a package names "lubuntu-restricted-extras"
User5: it contains all the third party software to play flash and mp3 and such
User4: ok
User4: synaptic?
User5: yes
User5: I see there are 2 packages, lubuntu-restricted-extras and lubuntu-restricted-addons
User5: I myself don't have any wireless hardware so this is far as I can advise you
User4: ok
User4: thankyou
User4: how do you make a shortcut
User4: on the desktop
User4: like a launcher
User4: for firefox and chromium
User5: I am currently trying to work that one out myself =D
User4: oh ok
User4: let me know
User5: sure thing =)
User5: welcome to lubuntu irc =)
User4: takk
User3: hmm
User6: Shortcuts on the desktop should be as easy as right click and create launcher?
User4: i didnt see that option
User3: actually
User3: drag n drop
User6: Hmm it's not there. Sorry for that
User6: But chromium and pcmanfm are both on the taskbar by default
User3: okay
User3: start your file browser
User3: and head to the /usr/share/applications
User3: and drang n drop your desired application to the desktop
User3: it should work
User3: if it doesnt
User3: then "copy & paste" ;)
User5: woop tyvm bioterror
User3: yes, copy and paste works better
User5: thats the folder I was looking for =)\
User3: gotta remember it
User4: i cant find the usr share apps folder
User3: it's applications
User4: it said permission denied
User4: error moving file
User5: hmmmm weird it worked for me
User3: dont move
User3: copy
User4: worked
User3: yeah
User3: there you go ;)
User5: Anyone else get the start menu skin sticking on left panel after its closed?
User5: I set up a panel on the left of the screen*
User3: I built my router/firewall on Lubuntu 10.04
User3: :D
User3: it took me a whole night, hahaha
User3: mrs. bioterror is sooooo going to rip her me apart
User3: -her :D
User3: but my system is faaast
User4: ok i am going to reboot now to see if the lunbuntu extras will solve the wifi problem
User3: :-)
User5: ATI site tells me their legacy drivers will only work on linux distrobutions pre Feb 09
User4: didnt work
User3: ofcourse it did not
User3: :-)
User3: you should first find out which wlan chipset you have
User3: it could help us alot
User3: maybe in terminal "dmesg |grep wlan"
User3: without ""
User4: it didnt give me any output
User4: just the prompt again
User3: okay
User3: your kernel cant recognize the wlan
User4: but it does on the other one
User4: i mean, i guess it must, because it works fine on it
User4: i installed wicd and it works fine on it
User4: i tried downloading the drivers from the preferences menu but they both gave errors
User3: wha other one?
User4: i have a laptop of the same model
User4: i upgraded from 10.04 lubuntu to 10.10
User4: and it works fine
User4: the wireless
User3: and that one is 10.04?
User4: this one i installed 10.10 from scratch just now
User3: okay
User4: listen i dont believe in fairy dust
User4: but i am here
User3: :-)
User3: I'm trying to help you out
User3: just a moment
User4: i know, i put my pants the same way everyone else does
User4: one leg at a time
User4: so no worries
User4: hmm
User4: i went to the preferences drivers tab again and it says broadcom sta driver is installed and currently used
User4: the atenna does seem to be on
User4: but theres no detection of wireless networks
User3: seems to be weird
User3: but I have to say that I'm really tired, it's 06:49 and I haven wake up 24 hours ago
User4: bioterror,
User6: User4 some people are reporting that it only seems to work when connected to the internet when installing http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1485247
User4: http://pastebin.com/4jdSstdE
User6: User4 and there is also someone who has created a little diagnostic script apparently to help out http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1499289
User4: head_victim, so which do you recomend i do
User6: I'd start with the diagnostic
User6: Depends on how much you have put into setting it all up, if it's still a fresh install mightn't hurt to reinstall with the ethernet connected if that's only going to be a 5 minute thing.
User4: ok i will try that instead
User4: brb
User7: Hey
User3: hi
User7: I am in process of installing lubuntu
User3: yes
User7: I notice a chroium icon (blue and white icon) is that the defaut brower installed with it?
User3: yes
User7: sweet
User3: indeed
User7: its chromium and not chrome?
User3: yes, it's chromium
User3: chrome is blue, red yellow or what was it
User7: chrome is blue yellow red
User7: chromium is light blue, dark blue white
User3: chrome is almost same, but without sending logs about your activity and without bundled flashplayer
User3: feel free to surf ;)
User7: which I can intall with ubuntu extras right?
User3: with the fastest browser you can get
User3: yes
User3: I assume you tapped those check boxes in the beginning of installation
User3: I did so
User3: :-)
User7: oh thats what that is lol
User7: I would have done the comand in terminal non the less
User7: how much sace does a total clean install take?
User7: ts installing as we speak
User5: How do I get a rundows of used space on partitions from CLI?
User5: *rundown
User5: disk manager shows capacity but nopt available space
User5: *disk utility
User5: /dev/sda2              23G  1.9G   20G   9% /
User5: 1.9GB for fresh install of 10.10
User8: thanks thats light!
User5: indeed
User8: its taking forever =(
User5: I installed from usb drive ZOOM! =)
User8: mine is from usb
User8: no cd drive on this lol
User8: woo done
User3: CD is so 80's
User8: lol its a dell mini 9
User3: I'm using Dell Latitude D420
User3: and my docking bay is 30km away from ;)
User8: docking bay as in kb, mouse external monitor on it?
User8: Also I don't need to do sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras?
User3: lubuntu-restricted-extras
User3: you can install that one
User5: whats the difference between lubuntu-restricted-extras and lubuntu-restricted-addons?
User3: lubuntu tries to dodge gnome packages ;)
User8: so that is the difference?
User8: between extras and addons?
User3: well
User3: I havent done dpkg -L for both of those packages
User3: but lubuntu is suggested to use with lubuntu
User3: let's have a look
User3: lubuntu
User3: Depends: lubuntu-restricted-addons
User3: Recommends: ttf-mscorefonts-installer, unrar, libavcodec-extra-52, libmp4v2-0
User3: Filename: pool/universe/u/ubuntu-restricted-extras/lubuntu-restricted-extras_42_i386.deb
User3: and the ubuntu
User3: Recommends: gstreamer0.10-plugins-ugly-multiverse, ttf-mscorefonts-installer, unrar, gstreamer0.10-plugins-bad-multiverse, libavcodec-extra-52, libmp4v2-0
User3: Filename: pool/multiverse/u/ubuntu-restricted-extras/ubuntu-restricted-extras_42_i386.deb
User8: oh hummm
User8: Do I even need to do extras and addons?
User8: Also everytime I boot up and my card auto connects I have to use a keyring?
User5: only if you plan to use proprietry software ie play mp3's or watch youtube videos
User3: MonthOLDpickle, edit the connection and tap the Available for all users
User8: youtube works in chromium already
User3: then it doesnt ask for the keyring anymore
User3: and connects automatically (if you have tapped that checkbox too, by default it should be tapped)
User8: I want to instll bot sentry for pidgin
User8: how do I search in terminal
User3: search what
User8: bot sentrtry
User3: apt-get packages or files on your filesystem
User8: don't know exact full name
User3: apt-cache search pidgin |grep sentry
User8: thanks
User3: np
User3: apt-cache > synaptic ;)
User3: and you can do a search like this
User3: apt-cache search pidgin |more
User3: apt-cache show pidgin-bot-sentry
User3: hi hyperair
User9: User3 hello.
User8: Hey
User8: I just noticed hitting the power button does nothing on the laptop but I just turned the laptop off
User3: :D
User3: but now I have to flee
User3: laters ;)
User6: This is the second Lubuntu install that has tried to log me into a "Default" but only works when you change that session to "Lubuntu"
User5: weird
User6: At least I didn't make it auto login like I did on my first one. Made it harder to find the error.
User5: How do I generate a new openPGP key in lubuntu? the launchpad.net instructions assume you are using gnome
User5: well.. ubuntu-desktop
User6: Should be the same?
User5: The easiest way to generate a new OpenPGP key in Ubuntu is to use the Passwords and Encryption Keys tool.
User5: Step 1: Open Applications > Accessories > Passwords and Encryption Keys.
User5: Step 2: Select File > New, select PGP Key and then follow the on-screen instructions.
User5: Now you'll see your new key listed in the Passwords and Encryption Keys tool.
User6: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GnuPrivacyGuardHowto
User5: heh yeah was just reading through that
User5: I seem to have this part of my brain broken where I don't see something right in front of me until I ask someone else lol
User5: head_victim, |friTTe|, ty

User5: <3
User6: User5 it's what we're here for :)

User10: tweetteck too much unusfull options
User10: frit yesss
User10: is very cool with my memory ram
User10: im kinda sure you ll adopt it
User5: should I trust apt-get telling me that packages such as reiserfsprogs rdate python-webkit localechooser-data
User5: ecryptfs-utils are no longer needed? why the hell are they there on a clean install if they are not needed? and why would I remove filesystem tools?
User3: yes
User11: hello
User11: guys i dl lifearea now so is there any way to link it with my google reader ??
User11: or like configure chomuim to subscribe me but using lifearea ?
User5: Is there a way to setup sylpheed to automatically decrypt pgp encrypted emails?
User5: or do I need to export to file and dfo it manually
User5: I seemingly can set it to automatically encrypt emails I send so I should be able to set it to do the reverse no?
User12: is anyone around?
User3: yep
User5: Hey CrackerJackz =)
User12: Mossyfunk, i have an old computer that has a 300 mhz processor, 128 mb of ram, and a 6 GB hard drive
User12: i'm looking for a linux distrabution that's right for me
User3: if you can boot lubuntu 10.10 with your computer, you've found the correct one
User12: bioterror, well i'm just concerned about the hard drive space
User3: Lubuntu takes 1.8GB with fresh installation
User5: "Minimum requirements for lubuntu are comparable to Pentium II or Celeron systems with a 128 Mb RAM configuration, which may yield a slow yet usable system with lubuntu."
User12: bioterror, even after updates only 1.8gb?
User3: yes
User12: can you think of anything that might be better than lubuntu for my scenerio?
User3: well
User12: i was thinking dsl maybe
User3: after lubuntu comes Salix OS, which is based on Slackware
User12: and slackware is similar to debian i think
User12: it uses apt-get for package management right?
User3: it's i486 optimized and also has a LXDE version of it
User3: it uses slapt-get
User12: about how much space does slackware take up?
User3: but ubuntu can provide alot more programs
User3: hmmm
User12: well the computer is only going to be used for checking email, watching youtube videos, listening to music
User3: it's almost the same
User3: 6GB is enough
User3: but you should go with the lubuntu, and think salix as a plan b
User12: how hard do you think it would be to get thi cisco aironet 350 series wireless adapter to work with it?
User3: I gotta hit the shower, my daughter is yelling at me :d
User3: laters
User12: bioterror, okay. thank you for your advice
User5: later bioterror =)
User5: CrackerJackz, I am a newbie can't help much sorry
User12: Mossyfunk, that's okay
User5: lubuntu is ultra fast on my P4 though compared to other distros
User12: Mossyfunk, i have gentoo on the computer i'm using now..
User12: but i have this old computer that has a pentium 2 processor, 128 mb of ram and 6gb of hard drive space
User3: gentoo, you should be advanced user then
User3: ;)
User3: even I dislike the gentoo installation from scratch
User5: I gave it a go, but figured "whats the bloody point" and installed lubuntu =)
User5: I will follow LFS book in the future to learn but for now I'm happy here
User12: bioterror, i'm still learning actually
User12: gentoo was my very first distro
User12: ubuntu my second
User12: actually i take that back
User12: when i was 13 i installed mandrake on a computer of mine
User12: but never knew how to work it
User3: did you install gentoo with chrooting and stuff like that? or did you use installer/livecd?
User12: didnt know how to open up any of my files or anything
User12: so i just said screw it
User12: stopped using it
User12: couldnt even get it on the internet
User12: then when i was like 18.. 19 years old
User12: i met someone and they started teaching me about linux
User12: they had me install gentoo lol
User12: bioterror, i used the live cd
User12: first gentoo install my friend installed for me
User12: from several states away
User12: he had me setup ssh
User12: and screen
User12: and he ssh'd in
User3: yes
User12: and ran screen on my computer so that i could see what he was doing
User12: it was pretty cool actually
User3: but you missed the educational part of it ;)
User12: i've installed gentoo on other computrs since then though
User12: i will admit it is a bit of a pain in the ass to compile your own kernel from source if you don't know what you're doing
User12: theres no way i coulda installed gentoo by my self the first time.. i knew absolutely nothing about linux
User12: other than it was an operating system
User3: but hey
User3: if we wanna chat about this more, you should join #lubuntu-offtopic
User3: this is for the helping ;)
User12: okay
User13: I've upgraded to 10.10 cos my live cd kept crashing, now I only have 1 theme.  Help
User3: 1 theme
User3: you mean the default lubuntu theme?
User13: 1 theme, clearlooks
User13: I'd like the new pretty default one
User3: you should get it
User13: it's been a bit of a nightmare, not being able to clean install
User3: hmmm
User3: what if you say
User3: sudo apt-get install --no-install-recommends lubuntu-desktop
User3: we could start with this one
User13: aha, i'll give it a go
User13: already newest version
User13: its a bit weird I did an upgrde a day or so ago, which gave me the new theme
User3: okay
User13: then i borked the system & had to reinstall 10.04 & upgrade again
User8: Hey guys
User8: On wireless I go to edit to make the keyring not pop up I don't see a "enable for all users"
User8: hey what do I add for bluetooth? gnome-bluetooth or bkluez ones?
User3: try to avoid gnome ;)
User3: that's what I think in the first place
User14: sorry experimenting
User14: so for bluetooth support on lubuntu what would I add?
User14: Or do I do the extras and addons and that gets it?
User8: just trying to get my bluetooth working
User8: all I find is info on ubuntu and how to pair phone with lubuntu
User8: I got blueman installed...
User8: All I fidn is ubuntu raawwwrrrrr
User13: it's early days for this distro yet, I think
User8: restarting
User8: w000t
User8: decision estimated guessing works!
User8: except the icon goes away when you disable it -.-
User8: thats going to be annoying lol!
User13: I guess I can live with only one theme
User13: everything works
User13: even if i cant find the new control centre in synaptic :-)
User13: ttfn guys
User15: Pip pip
User8: I use a bluetooth mouse
User8: every now and than I dsiable to save battery
User8: I disable the bluetooth to save battery and sometimes turn it back on to use a mouse
User8: I sho0uldn't need to restart everytime -.p
User3: maybe something wrong with the flash
 * bioterror is waiting for the html5
User2: slow-motion: try using the html5 trial on you-tube instead of flash.
User2: slow-motion: http://www.youtube.com/html5
User2: slow-motion: is that the stable, or daily build?
User8: fffffffffffffffffff
User8: I am going to reinstall lol
User8: trying to get the bluetooth manager to stay on even with bt is turned off
User8: installed kubuntu and ubuntu stuff
User8: -.-
User1: sometime when i reboot my computer, my networking devices doesn't pick up eth01
User1: and i have to reboot to correct this issue
User8: how do you get flash drives to mount ?
User2: User8 pcmanfm should automount them
User2: slow-motion: i'd suggest filing a bug against it, the guy who chases up chromium bugs is a star and you will get a reply.
User2: he can have a bug fix out within 24 hours.
User8: so yea
User8: bluetooth only turns on rebooting
User8: AND non of the usb drives are seen
User8: fml
User2: User8 I've never had a problem with pcmanfm and flash drives... So I'm a bit puzzled :\
User8: disk part sees it but I tried formatting it and no fat32 option
User8: rapiid pulling out and outting it made it pop up
User8: just need to figure out bluetooth
User2: chances are it is still in flash format.
User16: Hey girls :)
User3: sorry to dissapoint you but... ;)
User16: haha bioterror how are you? hur gÃ¥r det med svenskan?
User3: gÃ¥r mycket bra, tack.

User2: indeed, and then not if you do kernel update.
User2: I've had to turn off all updates.

User16: I can make my own :) lubuntu
User3: gordon ramsay always says 'less is more'

User3: what does it say?
User16: then it comes up
User3: as it should ;)
User16: Okey then it is like top
User16: I thougt it is a tool like lubuntus task manager or gnome system monitor
User3: it's a tool!
User3: ;)
User3: if you decide to use server or something, it's really handy to use from ssh
User16: yeah it is cool but I prefer gnome system monitor
User16: and htop is better then lubuntus taskmanager
User16: lubuntu will :) be better with time.
User16: bioterror thx any way it is handy tool

User18: User10 then i got no idea. :/
User10: User18 hihi thanks a lot : )
User2: User19 what are the specifications of the computer ?
User19: User2 intel celeron processer 2.40 GHZ and i think 256 mb ram
User10: guys peace out
User10: have fun
User2: User19 do you have an ethernet connection with it?
User2: User19 my IRC client is pretty basic, please reply in here; thanks.
User19: User2 kinda, got an old router working as a receiver, so it works as if its wired
User19: User2 and sry bout that, dont really no my way around irc that well
User2: User19 at 256MB you *can* use the standard install CD, it will just take a while, you may find it faster to use https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Lubuntu/DocumentationHelp/MinimalInstall
User19: User2 I have been trying the standard CD and most times i cant even get the installation menu to show up. and the one time it looked like it was working i got a partition error
User3: you cant double click?
User3: or wha
User2: User19 try with the minimal method, also do check the CD has burned okay.
User2: User19 else you're on hiding to nothing, trying to install from a 'bad' CD
User19: User2 will do. about the mini cd, does it matter that it was created in april? well it still get 10.10?
User2: User19 let me just check
User2: User19 my bad, I missed that one; give me a few minutes.
User2: User19 http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/maverick/main/installer-i386/current/images/netboot/ is the maverick one.... drat I missed one on the wiki area :(
User19: User2 no problem, at least i know what to use now.
 * phillw links updated
User19: User2 Im trying the the mini cd now, and after selecting comand-line install its just sitting the
User2: press enter again, it may take a few seconds to respond.
User2: those are my 10.04 instructions, I may need to re-write them for 10.10 but I am not expecting any major change on how the mini-iso works :\
User19: when i press enter (first time), some barely readable green texts pops up at the top, the menu still visable
User19: after a while it disappeared and everything was frozen
User2: that sounds like a graphics problem, else the cd is corrupt.
User2: you're not trying to use 64bit on your computer?
User19: i think its a graphic issue, and no
User19: im using 32bit
User2: http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/maverick/main/installer-i386/current/images/netboot/ubuntu-installer/i386/linux
User2: I haven't got a 10.10 boot cd for mini iso downloaded and tested on my computer.
User2: As I have no ethernet here, I cannot re-test the instructions with 10.10. You may want to try http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/karmic/main/installer-i386/current/images/netboot/ once lubuntu 10.04 is on, you can upgrade to 10.10 anyways.
User19: i just went into advance options and tried comand-line expert on the mini
User2: and I know the 10.04 method works fine :)
User19: it opened, should i try that?
User2: User19 give it a go, I have not had chance to test it as I'm on a 3G device and you need ethernet for the mini-iso
