| [01:04] <tomi_> how do i stop displaying ~/Desktop on desktop? | |
| [01:06] <jmarsden> tomi_: In Lubuntu? If what you are seeing is a shortcut, delete it. | |
| [01:07] <tomi_> what i am seeing is the entire content of ~/Desktop | |
| [01:07] <tomi_> yes lubuntu | |
| [01:07] <mama21mama> "hola" | |
| [01:07] <mama21mama> "Tengo Problemas párrafo USAR EL Navegador Por Defecto" | |
| [01:08] <mama21mama> "I have trouble using the default browser" | |
| [01:11] <tomi_> mama21mama, i use firefox and have set that in preferred applications ... works ok for me | |
| [01:11] <mama21mama> "use firefox" | |
| [01:11] <mama21mama> "still not working." | |
| [01:11] <jmarsden> tomi_: Well, that is probably as designed... there was nothing in ~/Desktop in your default install. So you can just move all those files to some other place, if you do not what them on your desktop. | |
| [01:12] <jmarsden> mama21mama: You will need to be more specific. "Not working"? What exactly happens when you open the browser? | |
| [01:13] <tomi_> jmarsden, oh, i did not do a default install i used the instructions on psychocat to remove ubuntu andd install lubuntu-desktop | |
| [01:13] <jmarsden> That should not matter. Those instructions do not add things into ~/Desktop either. You must have put those files there yourself. | |
| [01:13] <tomi_> so must be a hangover from ubuntu setting eh? | |
| [01:13] <mama21mama> "sylpheed not open the link" | |
| [01:14] <mama21mama> "I\u0026#39;m translating the English language is difficult" | |
| [01:14] <tomi_> oh they are things that were in my ~/Desktop from when i was using ubuntu | |
| [01:14] <jmarsden> mama21mama: so the browser works OK? But clicking on mailto: lines does not? | |
| [01:15] <jmarsden> tomi_: OK, so do something like mkdir ~/myolddesktopstuff ; mv ~/Desktop/* ~/myolddesktopstuff | |
| [01:15] <tomi_> yep ty jmarsden | |
| [01:15] <jmarsden> tomi_: You're welcome. | |
| [01:16] <tomi_> j,instant fix | |
| [01:16] <tomi_> jm | |
| [01:16] <tomi_> dang | |
| [01:16] <mama21mama> "why not leave this in Lubuntu gnome brings problems" | |
| [01:16] <tomi_> jmarsden, instant fix | |
| [01:17] <mama21mama> "had two firefox, firefox via ppa" | |
| [01:17] <mama21mama> tenia dos firefox, firefox via ppa | |
| [01:17] <jmarsden> mama21mama: Why not answer my question? Is your problem that mailto: links do not work for you? | |
| [01:17] <mama21mama> "and firefox in / opt / fierfox / firefox" | |
| [01:17] <mama21mama> y firefox en /opt/fierfox/firefox | |
| [01:17] <jmarsden> That is a known issue in some older versions of Lubuntu, I think. | |
| [01:19] <mama21mama> hoy borre el /opt/firefox | |
| [01:19] <mama21mama> "now delete the / opt / firefox" | |
| [01:19] <jmarsden> mama21mama: If you refuse to answer my questions and just do things, I cannot help you. | |
| [01:19] <mama21mama> "but firefox works fine via ppa" | |
| [01:20] <mama21mama> pero el firefox funciona bien via ppa | |
| [01:20] <tomi_> jmarsden, i think he is a spanish speaker using a translating engine | |
| [01:20] <jmarsden> Yes, but he is also not reading what anyone else says to him... | |
| [01:21] <tomi_> fair nuff | |
| [01:21] <mama21mama> no work link mail | |
| [01:21] <mama21mama> :D | |
| [01:21] <mama21mama> "translating it seems" | |
| [01:21] <jmarsden> OK. Wait while I try to find the bug report about this. It is a known problem. | |

| [01:30] <jmarsden> Ah... you want to click on links in Sylpheed and have a browser open. Not the other way around. | |
| [01:30] <jmarsden> I need to go eat, may be back later. | |

| === mama21mama is now known as parnassus | |
| [02:21] <jmarsden> parnassus: What is in the file ~/.config/libfm/pref-apps.conf on your machine? | |
| [02:24] <jmarsden> parnassus: Also, what do you have set in Sylpheed under Configuration -> Common Preferences -> Details -> External Commands ? | |
| [02:26] <jmarsden> parnassus: Lastly, what does grep uri_open ~/.sylpheed-2.0/sylpheedrc output? | |

| [02:30] <mama21mama> xD | |
| [02:30] <mama21mama> alli esta el problema | |
| [02:30] <mama21mama> "there is the problem" | |
| [02:30] <mama21mama> jmarsden, | |
| [02:30] <mama21mama> :D | |
| [02:31] <jmarsden> OK. The default is to set that to sensible-browser '%s' which should work better for you. | |
| [02:32] <mama21mama> jmarsden, gracias | |
| [02:32] <jmarsden> You are welcome :) | |
| [02:32] <mama21mama> :) | |
| [02:32] <mama21mama> jmarsden, jedi | |
| [02:33] <mama21mama> "que lindo now open the link." | |
| [02:58] <hyperair> why's there a hyperair between common and preferences? O_o | |
| [03:00] <jmarsden> No idea... I wondered that myself when I saw it :) | |
| [03:01] <jmarsden> Maybe he hit h and then tab ? | |
| [03:37] <hyperair> heh | |
| [07:16] <maahes> isn't pcmanfm supposed to be able to set your wallpaper? | |
| [07:31] <jmarsden> maahes: Really? A file manager sets the wallpaper? Seems odd... what makes you think pcmanfm should be able to do that? | |
| [07:32] <maahes> jmarsden: erm, nautilus does, and quick searching about on the internet showed that pcmanfm at least *used* to do so, not too long ago in fact, and was the default method of lxde | |
| [07:32] <maahes> only I can't seem to find the option to make it do so. | |
| [07:33] <jmarsden> OK. In Lubuntu 11.04 here, start -> Preferences -> Customize Look at feel seems more the right place for that sort of thing. | |
| [07:34] <maahes> not exactly using lubuntu, just trying to use lxde and some backends | |
| [07:34] <Phosphenes> Is there some way to give all the desktops different wallpapers? | |
| [07:34] <Phosphenes> Changing one always changes all of them | |
| [07:38] <jmarsden> maahes: I don't know... I can right click on the desktop and change wallpaper there, does that work in stock LXDE? | |
| [07:39] <jmarsden> Phosphenes: I don't know of a way to set wallpaper per virtual desktop. Interesting idea, though. | |
| [07:39] <maahes> jmarsden: I'm not using lxde. I'm just trying to use some of its backends with awesome. some forum posts I had found referred to an option in preferences which is not there. I just wondered if it was something I could get with a compile-option | |
| [07:39] <Phosphenes> I know you could do it in kubuntu | |
| [07:39] <Phosphenes> You had to set some option for allowing separate widgets per desktop | |
| [07:40] <Phosphenes> But since lubuntu doesn't have widgets I guess not | |
| [07:40] <maahes> you can do it in kubuntu and ubuntu with some extra package, dunno about lubuntu | |
| [07:40] <jmarsden> Phosphenes: Lubuntu is a lot smaller and lighter than Kubuntu, so it may not have that capability. | |
| [07:41] <Phosphenes> Oh well, I guess that's what I get for wanting better performance ;) | |
| [07:42] <jmarsden> Phosphenes: well... then the real question is *did* you get better performance :) if you did... it's probably worth the tradeoff! | |
| [07:42] <Phosphenes> It definitely was worth it. I'm only using a netbook and it couldn't run all the flair of kubuntu. | |
| [07:43] <jmarsden> OK. Good :) | |
| [07:43] <Phosphenes> I also tried xubuntu which ran pretty well, but I still prefer the lubuntu desktop | |
| [10:44] <giampiero> Hello everybody, I'm a former Ubuntu and new Lubuntu users, I've got a few questions. Is there anyone who fells like trying to answer me? | |
| [10:46] <giampiero> Nobody?= | |
| [11:11] <Neosano> argh! where's the goddamn download page? | |
| [11:11] <Neosano> all I see is the download button which shoots .iso file in my face | |
| [11:11] <Neosano> I would like to use torrent to download it, and also I would like to know the md5 sum | |
| [11:12] <Neosano> whoa! it's in the topic.. | |
| [11:12] <Neosano> what about a link from lubuntu.net? | |
| [13:28] <pylix> i'm trying to install lubuntu on my emachine desktop, but the cd just camps in an endless loop with the ubuntu logo and elipses | |
| [13:29] <pylix> is my disc corrupted? | |
| [13:41] <buff27> sounds like it might be pylix, try it on another pc? | |
| [13:42] <buff27> use unetbootin and load image on a usb stick? | |
| [13:43] <pylix> what's unetbootin? | |
| [13:44] <buff27> a tool to right .iso files to USB | |
| [13:44] <buff27> http://unetbootin.sourceforge.net/ | |
| [13:45] <pylix> you need a blank usb right | |
| [13:46] <buff27> yes | |
| [13:46] <buff27> or just format it to FAT/FAT32 | |
| [13:46] <buff27> i tend to just use usb instead of burning CD's these days | |
| [13:47] <buff27> handy for my netbook too, as it doesn't have a CD/DVD drive | |
| [13:47] <pylix> they're faster | |
| [13:47] <pylix> I tried with ubuntu and never got it to work right | |
| [13:48] <pylix> but yeah i'll look into it | |
| [13:48] <pylix> thx for the help | |
| [13:49] <buff27> yeah I found unetbootin does the trick. No problem, only recently switched over to lubuntu myself, previously xubuntu | |
| [17:34] <AmberJ> Hello | |
| [17:35] <AmberJ> lxde menu doesnot seems to find, recognize and add some programs that I installed using synaptic... | |
| [17:35] <AmberJ> How do I add them manually | |
| [17:35] <AmberJ> ? | |
| [17:35] <AmberJ> Ofcourse, there's Alt+F2 run dialog...but there should be a way to add custom entries to lxde menu | |
| [17:39] <AmberJ> Isn't there a 'better' menu generation utility that works with lxde (e.g. https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Fluxbox#Menu_Management) ? | |
| [17:39] <phillw> AmberJ: it *should* add them, which one(s) are you having a problem with? | |
| [17:41] <AmberJ> phillw, ktouch | |
| [17:41] <AmberJ> ktouch is a KDE program to learn to touchtype | |
| [17:43] <phillw> Are you on Lubuntu 11.04? | |
| [17:43] <AmberJ> yes | |
| [17:44] <phillw> give me a few minutes and I will pop it onto my system. | |
| [18:14] <AmberJ> phillw, did you suggested anything....this connection keeps disconnecting :( | |
| [18:16] <phillw> AmberJ: I will have a play, i'm really sorry for delays. I'm in a meeting at the moment. | |
| [18:17] <AmberJ> np phillw, I'll catchup with you tomorrow... | |
| [20:39] <maahes> can you start lxsession if you're already running x? | |
