KittyKatt | Question. | 01:44 |
---|---|---|
KittyKatt | I used a long bash command in my "startup and session" and I don't remember the entire thing. | 01:45 |
KittyKatt | Well, now I've switched to openbox, and kill xfdesktop and such. | 01:45 |
KittyKatt | Is there a file that "Sessions and Startup" in XFCE stores the actual commands that are executed? | 01:45 |
KittyKatt | Because I can't edit the commands from the "Sessions and Startup" menu. | 01:46 |
KittyKatt | I can only add or delete them. | 01:46 |
KittyKatt | Nevermind. | 01:55 |

GenKreton | hey guys, what's the best way to get dual monitors to extend instead of mirror in xubuntu? | 15:51 |
GenKreton | a lot of googling keeps saying xorg.conf but we aren't supposed to need one anymore | 15:51 |
Sysi | you can try with xrandr | 15:52 |
GenKreton | k, display settings in xfce's settings manager only shows one | 15:52 |
GenKreton | xrandr sees two | 15:52 |
_Pete_ | if you have nvidia-gpu it can easily be done with nvidia-settings | 15:53 |
GenKreton | no, ati :\ | 15:53 |

kromar | hi, someone knows if there is a solution for the muted sound when rebooting? | 18:09 |

garv | should i install xubuntu on a older laptop or use the netbook version of ubuntu? this laptop for is for my mother that wasnt to browse the web, and be able to upload pictures to facebook from that computer. | 18:22 |
Besogon | garv, netbook remix is very usefull for net serfing. It is easiest than xubuntu I think | 18:26 |
Besogon | What notebook do you have? | 18:26 |
garv | its a dell 8500 inspiron | 18:29 |
garv | older notebook | 18:29 |
Besogon | garv, don't worry. I advice you to install ubuntu-remix | 18:32 |
kromar | what is the lba flag for? | 18:33 |
garv | yeah I have xubuntu on there right now, and I think it's not easy enough for her... thanks for your advice | 18:35 |
Besogon | kromar, It seems that I find out information about LBA on a thomething forum http://gparted-forum.surf4.info/viewtopic.php?id=8794 | 18:40 |
kromar | Besogon: thanks for the link | 18:43 |
tdn_ | How do I change language from English to Danish? System wide for all users. (and preferably for all possible applications) | 20:07 |
TheSheep | tdn_: system->language support | 20:09 |
tdn_ | TheSheep, will it then change in OpenOffice as well and in simple games like Solitaire? | 20:11 |
=== tdn_ is now known as tdn | ||
tdn | TheSheep, can it be done via console? | 20:12 |
tdn | Right now I only have ssh access | 20:12 |
TheSheep | tdn: edit /etc/default/locale | 20:14 |
TheSheep | see locale -a command for a list of possible values | 20:14 |
tdn | How do I focus the menu without a mouse? | 20:15 |
tdn | TheSheep, I have just logged in via X. There is no System menu. | 20:15 |
tdn | Only Applications and PLaces. | 20:15 |
knome | tdn, applications -> system -> .. | 20:16 |
tdn | Ok. | 20:17 |
tdn | Appearently, I can only select different kinds of English. | 20:21 |
tdn | How do I get Danish available? | 20:21 |
tdn | Oh. | 20:25 |
tdn | It needs to be added first. | 20:25 |
tdn | I have done that and selected Danish. However, the menus at the top are still called Applications and Places and not Programmer and Steder, as they would in Danish. | 20:26 |
knome | all the names might not change for existing users | 20:27 |
TheSheep | tdn: either restart the panel or log out and log back in, preferably selecting the language when you log in | 20:27 |
tdn | TheSheep, I have just logged out and in. | 20:27 |
TheSheep | tdn: you had English selected on the login screen? | 20:28 |
tdn | The login screen IS in english. | 20:28 |
tdn | I just restarted gdm. | 20:28 |
TheSheep | tdn: oh, and if some program is not yet translated, it will appear in English | 20:28 |
tdn | That made login screen english. | 20:29 |
tdn | But it IS translated in Ubuntu. | 20:29 |
TheSheep | tdn: there is a language selection box at login screen | 20:29 |
TheSheep | tdn: same as in Ubuntu | 20:29 |
tdn | Yes. I selected Danish. | 20:29 |
tdn | Still English in the top menu. | 20:29 |
TheSheep | ok, then apparently xfce panel doesn't have a Danish translation | 20:30 |
tdn | TheSheep, the submenus ARE translated however. | 20:30 |
tdn | How can I contribute a Danish translation for xfce panel? This is really important. | 20:30 |
TheSheep | hmm.. try right-clicking on the applications button and selecting 'preferences' | 20:30 |
TheSheep | !translation | 20:30 |
ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about translation | 20:30 |
TheSheep | !rosetta | 20:31 |
ubottu | rosetta is a Web-based system for translating open source software into any language. See https://launchpad.net/rosetta | 20:31 |
tdn | Ok. | 20:33 |
tdn | TheSheep, there is nowhere on that URL where I can contribute translations. | 20:48 |
tdn | TheSheep, even worse: https://translations.launchpad.net/xfce4-panel <- It looks like it is not even possible to have translations?! | 20:50 |
sidi | translators for the XFCE project work on xfce.org directly | 20:52 |
sidi | tdn: hello | 20:52 |
tdn | sidi, ok. | 20:52 |
TheSheep | tdn: http://wiki.xfce.org/translations | 20:52 |
* tdn thinks it is WAY to difficult to contribute translations. | 20:53 | |
tdn | This is a shame. | 20:53 |
sidi | https://translations.xfce.org/projects/xfce4-panel/ | 20:53 |
sidi | tdn: XFCE is a big thing, they use their own workflow, and Xubuntu is only a little part of the XFCE users | 20:53 |
sidi | Contributing is all about finding the place where to contribute and getting started :) Not everyone uses launchpad | 20:54 |
tdn | Still, it should be easier. | 20:56 |
sidi | how should it be easier ? | 20:56 |
tdn | It is really a shame that it is so hard to contribute something as translations. Translations is something almost everyone could help with. But average Joe is not going to jump through all these hoops. | 20:57 |
sidi | Do you expect Xubuntu to duplicate every line of code and .po file from upstream and to manually report back any change made on our side ? | 20:57 |
tdn | sidi, I am on the URL you posted, and I still have no idea how to contribute with translations for xfce4-panel. | 20:57 |
tdn | sidi, of course not. | 20:57 |
sidi | Click on 'master' | 20:58 |
sidi | there are 3 branches : 4.4 / 4.6 (the current one) and master, the development branch | 20:58 |
sidi | someone came before you | 20:58 |
sidi | But the danish translations seem to be complete everywhere in XFCE master, actually | 20:58 |
tdn | Ok. I see that there is already a Danish with 100%. | 20:58 |
tdn | But on my fresh install of Xubuntu with Danish language enabled, I still have Enlish names in top menu. What gives? | 20:59 |
tdn | How do I have a user automatically login on start up? | 21:07 |
tdn | How do I have a user automatically login on start up? | 21:38 |
jiohdi | anyway to change the menus-- add and remove? | 22:16 |
