homebrewcidermmm, brilliant, I had tried what I thought was everything.... cheers00:26
knomehomebrewcider, next time you log out, remember to uncheck the "save session" box00:26
homebrewcideryep, cheers00:26

owen1maybe in a few days you can add a post say that u also have this issue. we can add bug report to xubuntu.04:19
KittyKattowen1: may have a workaround....04:24
KittyKattGive me a minute to test it...04:24
KittyKattowen1: Do you know the chmod MODE for read/write permissions?04:26
owen1KittyKatt: yes04:27
KittyKatt+???04:27
owen1oh, u want me to tell u?04:28
KittyKattCould you tell me?04:28
KittyKattYes please lol04:28
KittyKatt:D04:28
owen1sorry (-:04:28
owen11 sec04:28
KittyKattThat's okay. :P04:28
owen1chmod 777 <folder_name>     this is an example.04:29
owen1what excatly do u need?04:29
KittyKattWhat if it isn't a folder?04:30
owen1you can do 700 to give yourself read/write and view. but not for others04:30
KittyKattJust a file.04:30
owen1sure04:30
KittyKattKay.04:30
KittyKattOne moment...04:30
owen1777 will be the most permissive. the file's owner, the file's group and other groups.04:30
owen1700 is only for you. 770 is you and the file's group.04:31

firestarter1hi. is there a graphical utility for managing xubuntu's services ?11:08
jbk`yes.11:09
firestarter1jbk`: thanks for the stupid answer11:09
firestarter1now, you are laughing, I suppose11:09
knomefirestarter1, applications -> settings -> sessio and startup11:10
firestarter1knome: already tried that. but services are started after the desktop is displayed11:11
firestarter1my service-app is not a GUI app.11:11
knomefirestarter1, uh, applications -> system -> services :)11:12
firestarter1thanks knome. a more difficult question: is there a way to launch this menu from command line ?11:12
knomeservices-admin11:13
firestarter1knome: it doesn't allow me to add a service11:13
knomefirestarter1, sudo services-admin11:13
firestarter1I can only display services11:13
firestarter1knome: same result11:14
knomefirestarter1, run without sudo and click unlock11:15
firestarter1knome: tried as well11:15
firestarter1but I can't add services11:16
knomei think that might be intentional11:16
firestarter1maybe. but in this way what can I do?11:17
knomei don't really know11:18
firestarter1np. thanks anyway11:18
knomemaybe ask #ubuntu11:18
firestarter1but I need a tool for xubuntu11:20
knomefirestarter1, there is no xubuntu-specific tool for that, that's for sure.11:20
hhh3is there a simple way to have a login sound in xubuntu hardy?13:46
hhh3i use the auotmatic login13:46
firestarter1hi. how can I ADD a service to my system ?14:02

tmuraseWhenever I log in, dozens of xfdesktop processes start up.  That's not normal, I'm guessing19:35
jbk`it actually is19:40
pteagueif anybody else is having problems with the xfce weather plugin, check https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xfce4-weather-plugin/+bug/39688019:42
sacredYoho. I would have a small issue with Xubuntu 9.04 and with HP Mininote 213319:42
sacredNo matter which resolution I add o the machine it always leaves out little of the desktop from the bottom and from the right side of the screen.19:43
sacredOpenchrome drivers are installed through the repository and no changes have been made after the installation.19:44
sacredAnyone seen this behavior before?19:45
tmurasejbk`: dozens of xfdesktop processes is normal?  I managed to hit the kernel's oom killer on my last login19:49
SiDitmurase: its not, kill them all !19:53
tmuraseSiDi: I did.  Repeatedly.20:03
tmuraseClearly, there's something screwy in the saved session, but where do I look?20:03
SiDirm -rf .cache/sessions/20:03
SiDiit'll get rid of it20:04
pteaguesacred_: i'm guessing that's a monitor?  can you adjust the display width/height on the monitor itself?20:04
sacred_pteague, HP2133 is a Mininotebook.20:06
tmuraseSiDi: thanks20:06
sacred_So unfortunately I cannot adjust the sceensize from the display itself.20:06
