[02:59] <BWMerlin> is the lubuntu site down?
[08:28] <kvarley> When I change my keymap from US to UK using Menu>Preferences>LxKeymap it works but only for the current session. When I reboot it clears the setting, how can I change it permenantly?
[13:32] <kinsk> hi
[13:33] <kinsk> What are the memory requirements for lubuntu in order for the system to be perfectly usable ?
[13:36] <head_victim> kinsk: that depends on how you define perfectly usable and what you want to do with it
[13:37] <head_victim> What computer are you going to try running it on?
[13:37] <kinsk> i want to use it in a virtual machine and give it 1gb of ram and 1 processor
[13:37] <head_victim> That will be plenty to do most things easily
[13:38] <head_victim> Being a VM though, it's easy to test it out to make sure it actually does what you want.
[13:38] <kinsk> I'll give it a try.
[13:38] <head_victim> I find CPUs to be more limiting these days than ram, ram is so cheap and easily upgradeable that it's not usually an issue.
[13:39] <kinsk> Yes but I'm limited to 4GB unfortunately.
[13:39] <kinsk> I'm on a notebook BTW.
[13:41] <head_victim> I used to run it on a 2.4 celeron processor with 1gb ram and Lubuntu was the only thing I'd run on it, nothing else was bearable.
[13:51] <LinoSP> I want to buy a usb wireless adapter but i dunno if it work in lubuntu
[13:52] <LinoSP> can u recomend me a specific chipset?
[14:13] <echoprinter> When playing a music file the media player sounds like a CD skipping. Any suggestions on how to fix this? Google doesn't seem to be much help at the moment.
[14:45] <holstein> echoprinter: you should have realistic expectations of your hardware... what are the specs?
[14:45] <holstein> you can always go in a rev the ALSA version one way or the other
[14:46] <holstein> when i have problems like that, i typically break out a few live CD's to see if i can gain any helpful information
[14:58] <echoprinter> holstein: Where do I find the specs at? Soundcard worked on ubuntu with no issues so I know I can get it to work.
[15:00] <holstein> echoprinter: yeah, but the same version of ubuntu?
[15:00] <holstein> there are different kernels, and different ALSA versions
[15:00] <echoprinter> holstein: yeah, it worked on 10.04, 10.10, & 11.04.
[15:01] <holstein> echoprinter: right
[15:01] <holstein> and now you have 11.10?
[15:01] <echoprinter> I have 10.10
[15:01] <holstein> OK
[15:01] <holstein> so, 10.10 ubuntu was good, 10.10 lubuntu is bad
[15:01] <echoprinter> yes.
[15:02] <holstein> if i were you.... i would get the live version of 11.10, and see if the issue is resolved there, and consider upgrading now
[15:03] <echoprinter> does 11.04 use all of those resources that ubuntu uses? Ubuntu 11.04 *is* the reason I decided to go with Lubuntu, and besides the audio issue I am very happy with it so far.
[15:04] <holstein> lubuntu = ubuntu
[15:04] <holstein> it uses the same repos, has the same access to the same packages
[15:04] <holstein> the same default kernel
[15:04] <echoprinter> so it used Unity, right?
[15:04] <holstein> echoprinter: right
[15:04] <echoprinter> does it show Lubuntu down?
[15:04] <holstein> and you can apt get unity in lubuntu for example
[15:05] <echoprinter> slow, I mean.
[15:05] <holstein> ?
[15:05] <holstein> that would in effect change you over to ubuntu from lubuntu
[15:06] <holstein> with all of the changes in speed/performance/functionality
[15:06] <holstein> im just pointing out that they are not that different
[15:07] <holstein> what i usually do, for troubleshooint.. i'll get live CD's.... when i get something working, i'll note the kernel version or ALSA version... whatever packages that might effect performance
[15:08] <echoprinter> I'll get a Live CD then and try it out. Also, how can I install a new Desktop enviroments if I wanted to use Gnome on 10.10.
[15:08] <echoprinter> that's the last quetsion. :)
[15:08] <holstein> you can open whatever pacakge manger you use, and search gnome
[15:09] <echoprinter> ah...okay.
[15:09] <holstein> there are also meta-packages
[15:09] <holstein> ubuntu-desktop
[15:09] <holstein> lubuntu-destkop
[15:09] <echoprinter> holstein: thanks, you've been very helpful.
[15:10] <holstein> echoprinter: anytime... let us know about the audio issue... that should be easy enough when you figure out whats causing the problemm
[15:10] <echoprinter> ok, I will.
[16:03] <JohnDoe_71Rus> can lxdm use xdmcp?
[17:28] <nothingspecial> How do I stop the folders in my $HOME displaying on my desktop? Cheers
[19:37] <dunedaeen> hi guys
[19:38] <dunedaeen> i have question about screenlets - they don't seem to work as they should. Btw, congratz for making such good derivate :-)
[19:38] <dunedaeen> it's lubuntu 11.10
[19:39] <dunedaeen> anyways, opacity and temp sensors don't work
[19:39] <dunedaeen> just wanted to ask is that usual on lxde or?
[19:41] <dunedaeen> anyone?
[19:41] <holstein> is it usual for screenlet to not work in LXDE?
[19:41] <holstein> what screenlets? are they made/designed with LXDE support?
[19:41] <dunedaeen> yes, not to have opacity
[19:42] <dunedaeen> uhm.. not sure
[19:42] <dunedaeen> installed it using synaptic
[19:42] <holstein> as a general rule, if you want transparency, and whizzbang, dont go for something light
[19:42] <holstein> can you make it work? sure
[19:43] <holstein> could be as easy as not having compositing?
[19:43] <dunedaeen> i'm not into much eye-candy, i just like screenlets
[19:44] <dunedaeen> you need packet version of screenlets?
[19:45] <dunedaeen> sec, i have some connection issues.. tnx for help, though :-) now i know i can make it possible
[19:46] <holstein> not sure... what is 'packet version' ?
[19:46] <dunedaeen> oh, i ment version of screenlets i have atm
[19:47] <holstein> i would use the ones in the repos, unless there is an issue with them
[20:09] <dunedaeen> sry, i'm back
[20:09] <dunedaeen> yes, now it works ok..
[20:09] <dunedaeen> weird
[20:09] <dunedaeen> tnx, @holstein
[20:10] <dunedaeen> cheers all :-)
[20:36] <arturo> #voip
[21:50] <splash> hey is there a good download manager for LXDE?
[21:51] <splash> one of my downloads keep getting interrupted and I have to restart it
[21:54] <KM0201> i'm not aware of one for Linux period, let alone LXDE
[22:00] <xsaidx> splash:  theres aria but never tried it its command tool
 wget with -c switch should help, or plowdown for megaupload "like" downloads
[22:54] <splash> well I've seen fatrat mentioned a few times but its KDE
[23:04] <superkiwi> Hi, I am having trouble debugging with monodevelop in lubuntu 11.10. The error message I get when I do run->run or  run->debug is "File name has not been set" (http://dl.dropbox.com/u/13529905/monodevelop-error.txt). Anyone experienced this?

[10:02] <hikiko> hi Trevinho


[03:34] <Press_F1_For> Huh, less people here than I thought. I guess it's kind of hard to find the link here if you aren't looking for it
[04:01] <arraybolt3> Press_F1_For: Many of the IRC channels are active, but this one is pretty quiet.
[04:01] <arraybolt3> Generally Ubuntu Budgie stuff happens on their Discourse forum.
[04:05] <Press_F1_For> yeah
