[02:02] Hellp ctisme! Let me see if I can help you. [02:04] Almost there... [02:05] For screenshot: Click the Application Menu in the lower-left corner of the screen. [02:06] Hover over "Preferences", then hover over "LXQt Settings", and click "Shortcut Keys". [02:06] Scroll down until you find an entry in the table with the description "screen shot". [02:07] Hold down the shortcut keys you want to use to take a screenshow (say Win+S), and while holding those keys down, click the button next to "Shortcut:". [02:09] Not all of the shortcut key combos will actually work, so you may have to try different combos until you find one that works. [02:10] Ack, I missed a step (I'm using two computers here), sorry. [02:10] So, open the Application Menu, hover over "Preferences", then hover over "LXQt Settings", and click "Shortcut Keys". [02:11] Find the "screen shot" entry, click it, and click the Modify button at the right side of the screen. [02:11] *Now* hold down the shortcut key combo you want and press the button next to "Shortcut:". Press OK, and you're done! [02:14] Window tiling appears to be a bit more difficult, so I'm not sure if I can help you right here, but you might try the Lubuntu Discourse [02:14] forum for more help on that front. [08:30] [telegram] wow, you are fast [08:31] [telegram] Haha Googled😂😂 (re @tbs61: wow, you are fast) [08:34] [telegram] What's the telegram bot? (re @tbs61: wow, you are fast) [08:34] [telegram] it s a bridge that allows irc and telegram to be connected (re @adithyav: What's the bridge bot?) [08:35] [telegram] you know irc ? [08:35] [telegram] Nope (re @tbs61: you know irc ?) [08:36] [telegram] it s also a messaging platform (re @adithyav: Nope) [08:36] [telegram] a different kind of [08:36] [telegram] Okay, there we can ask questions? [08:36] [telegram] yes [08:36] [telegram] for lubuntu group it s same if it is here or there [08:37] [telegram] Okay (re @tbs61: for lubuntu group it s same if it is here or there) [08:37] [telegram] since that bridge bot carry messages from there to here and here to there [08:37] [telegram] Do you answer as well? [08:37] [telegram] if i know, gladly [08:38] [telegram] 👍👍👍 [10:56] hello, I have and early 2009 imac. Can I just install Lubuntu as if I were on a windows pc or do I have to do something else [11:00] [telegram] what do you mean by " as if i were on a windows pc" ? sorry im not native english user (re @lubuntu_bot: (irc) hello, I have and early 2009 imac. Can I just install Lubuntu as if I were on a windows pc or do I have to do something else) [13:43] [telegram] i just noticed i cant use appimages at lubuntu. i tried same appimage which is pling at ubuntu-mate and it works there [13:44] [telegram] i used both usb flash and gnome boxes with lubuntu 22, cant run pling [13:44] [telegram] You need to install the libfuse2 package. [13:45] [telegram] first time hearing this, thanks (re @kc2bez: You need to install the libfuse2 package.) [13:50] [telegram] libfuse3 is preinstalled at system, seems 3 doesnt cover 2... [13:51] [telegram] That is correct. [13:55] [telegram] installing libfuse2 worked btw, i want to try a new theme i saw at pling for lxqt :) [14:00] [telegram] i just remember i cant use pling for auto install, need to install themes manually. [18:52] Today had a kernel panic with version 5.15.0-27 with lubuntu 22.04, has anyone else had this? (fixed by switching to version 5.15.0.25) [20:04] @lubuntunoob Thank you for bringing this to our attention. I'll look into it and see if I can reproduce the problem. If so, I'll file a bug report so we can start getting it fixed! [21:25] lubuntunoob: Hey, can you tell me what hardware you're using by any chance? Something like "Dell Latitude 5420" is what I'm looking for. [21:27] @arraybolt3 hey thanks for looking into this - it is an Asus laptop - model X456U [21:27] Thank you, that will be helpful for debugging! [21:32] @ arraybolt3 It's a few years old and likes to be a trouble-causer - I get a few error messages during boot but they all seem benign, not sure if that would contribute to the kernel panic [21:36] If it's not too much trouble, it might be helpful if you could reinstall the bad kernel, boot into it, and then take a picture of the kernel panic error with your phone or something. Upload it to Imgur and send the link over chat. The error contains a wealth of debugging information. If it's too much trouble, don't worry about it. [21:39] yeah I can give that a try, see you in a couple minutes [21:49] @arraybolt I'm back - I reinstalled the kernel but when I tried rebooting it didn't kernel panic (nor did it boot properly). It got stuck somewhere in bios loading with text as follows [OK] finished secure boot updates for DB and DBX [OK] finished plymouth boot screen [OK] finished set console screen. I installed linux-modules and linux-headers 5.15.0-27-generic with the required dependencies but maybe I missed something. I remembered I [21:49] took a photo earlier in the day of the kernel panic, but some of the message is cut off [21:53] Sounds like you forgot to install linux-image? [21:53] haha thank you I will try again [21:53] is it just the 3? [21:53] I've done stuff like that before lol [21:54] I believe so, but let me check just real quick [21:54] linux-image is installing the other 2 as dependencies by the way [21:56] Nice. I believe it is just those three. [21:56] okay round 2! [22:13] @arraybolt still no dice, froze at [OK] finished terminate plymouth boot screen [22:14] this pastebin is the portion of the kernel panic I had a photo of https://pastebin.com/C7G1N1Ms [22:15] [telegram] > Initramfs unpacking failed: ZSTD-compressed data is corrupt...... [22:15] [telegram] This suggests that maybe the kernel installation and stuff failed [22:15] @arraybolt3 missed the 3 [22:15] [telegram] only way to know is to uninstall the kernel and probably reinstall it while in the older kernel and watch the apt output like a hawk to see if there's something going awry during the install process [22:19] I tried reinstalling and noticed this error in the install message dkms: WARNING: Linux headers are missing, which may explain the above failures. [22:19] please install the linux-headers-5.15.0-27-generic package to fix this. [22:20] [telegram] yeah install that as well [22:20] It is old because during the confirmation it said linux-headers would be installed as a dependency [22:21] *odd [22:22] there was also this message during linux-image install Memtest86+ needs a 16-bit boot, that is not available on EFI, exiting [22:22] Warning: os-prober will not be executed to detect other bootable partitions. [22:22] Systems on them will not be added to the GRUB boot configuration. [22:22] no errors during linux-headers [22:23] I'll try another reboot, back shortly [22:26] hello again, still no dice on 5.15.0-27, no kernel panic, no successful boot. At least 5.15.0-25 seems to work fine haha [22:27] not sure if these matter, but here are the 'benign' errors I get during a successful boot https://pastebin.com/Vrdz8DJS [22:37] hi [22:37] i got a question regarding the swap partition [22:39] Ask away kmh [22:39] for some reason (maybe i forgot it in the manual partition) my swap space doesn't get mounted at boot up and there is no entry for the swap partition in /eetc/fstab either [22:40] however the swap partition was created (just not mounted) - I can see it an activate it with KDE partition tool [22:40] but that activation goes away after a reboot [22:41] [telegram] did you do manual partitioning to add it, or was it part of an automatic install? [22:41] i'm not quite sure what i need to do to assure that it is mounted and activated at booting [22:41] [telegram] if you did manual partitioning it won't be activated automatically and you will have to write the fstab entry yourself to make it work [22:41] [telegram] (which isn't hard) [22:41] and/or what exact line i need in fstab [22:42] i did a manual partition [22:42] ah ok [22:42] [telegram] run blkid on the command line. Start by getting the UUID for your swap partition. I'll walk you through the fstab entry [22:42] then my only question is for the exact syntax for the fstab entry [22:44] i get get the UUID from the kde partition tool too, so i have that but i'm unsure about any parameters i may have to pass [22:44] [telegram] that'll work fine too as i said i'll give you all the lines you need for the fstab [22:44] currently fstan also contains a "/swapfile swap swap defaults 0 0" line [22:44] do i leave that as it it is? [22:45] [telegram] if you have the UUID then, your line will look like this: /dev/disk/by-uuid/UUIDHERE none swap sw 0 0 [22:45] ok thanks i have uuid and fstab open [22:45] [telegram] and as you've noticed, Lubuntu uses swapfiles by default. If you don't want to use a swap file you should comment that out [22:46] well once the swap partition is mounted i suppose a swap file makes no sense (just eats up memory on the system disk?) [22:46] [telegram] pretty much hence just comment out thatline in fstab for now [22:47] ok [22:47] one more question regarding the syntax if you don't mind [22:48] the already mounted partitions in my fstab seems to use a slightly different syntx - looking like: [22:48] UUID=f52a4b45-f105-4b73-849d-7b0a681dc606 / ext4 defaults,discard 0 1 [22:48] for the root/system partition [22:48] correct [22:48] UUID= and /dev/disk/by-uuid/ are pretty much identical [22:49] except that i've seen UUID randomly fail for Unknown Reasons in some environments and had better luck using /dev/disk/by-uuid/ [22:49] you can use UUID= if you want [22:49] but i personally use /dev/disk/by-uuid [22:49] (i'm teward001 on Telegram by the way :P) [22:50] so i could do : UUID= none swap sw 0 0 ? [22:50] [telegram] correct [22:50] [telegram] I just prefer using /dev/disk/by-uuid/ because that's my preferred way :) [22:51] [telegram] but you can do it either way [22:51] ok thanks i'll try that way then to keep the notation consistent (for me) [22:54] and irc question regarding the bridge to telegram [22:55] teward, [22:55] oops [22:56] teward001 if i address your nick this way is that helpful on thelegram client or does that get ignored? [22:56] and related the teward in the irc channel is identical with you or somebody else? [22:57] [telegram] @teward001 will ping me here in Telegram [22:57] [telegram] but teward is my IRC nick and IRC Cloud will ping me if you ping that [22:57] [telegram] so either way I get the notice :) [22:57] ah ok [22:58] but for your client to get pinged on telegram i need the @ rather than just the nick? [23:00] correct [23:01] all right thanks a lot, i'll test everything with a reboot soon
