Hai everyone,
Agreed the screensaver shouldn't be energy consuming, it should be the
opposite.

Does anyone know how to output sound through HDMI in Lubuntu?
I've done it a couple of times with Ubuntu in the past, but couldn't find
anything that would allow me to do it in Lubuntu. There is nowhere to

I realize that being lightweight is a major focus for Lubuntu and I agree
100%. But keep in mind that the average user will have expectations for
their OS and that not everyone will use it only on older hardware (Lubuntu
is too nice not to use it on modern hardware!)

Welcome on the mailing-list first of all. You seem to have a pretty clear

definition of an efficient OS. Love to hear your thoughts.

For me it's really three main areas.
First is battery consumption "under normal use". I want my 8 hour battery
to last a close to 8 hours, not less than 6 like it did with Ubuntu.
Second, I look at the user interface. I hate having two task-bars when
everything I need will fit in one. I never

You know, LCDs still burn in. It's arguably more efficient to just

I *thought* it was in lesser degree with LCD's. But turn off is such a turn
off for some people (pun intended), but my prefered method (my Ubuntu does
it as well).

We have to start from one fact: if Lubuntu can run in an acceptable way in
an old machine, it will run incredibly on a newer machine.

I think it's very useful. For example for windows users that are accustomed
to Alt + xx (like me), or when you need to write a strange character or when
you don't know the unicode code of a character.

Well, I usually do this with gnome-alsa-mixer (just a front-end). Now
even you have a PulseAudio equalizer using a PPA. Try this (single line)
in a terminal:
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:psyke83/ppa && sudo apt-get update && sudo
apt-get install -y pulseaudio-equalizer

Hi,
With the removal of cheese, we have nothing to test a webcam, especially

Someone proposed to include guvcview. It seems to be a good choice :
quite simple and not too much dependencies.
Did someone already test it ? I don't have a webcam, I'll be glad if
someone have feedbacks

Got to agree with Yorvyk on the menu icon lacking something. I find it
a little difficult to see on my test machine's monitor.
