imagitronicshow can I remove all the panels?12:28
TheSheepimagitronics: right-click on one and select 'customize panels'12:32
imagitronicsIt won't let you delete the last panel12:32
imagitronicsbut if I try to uninstall it with aptitude, it says that it's going to uninstall the xfce4-desktop all together12:33
TheSheepthen do it with 'xfce4-panel -q'12:33
imagitronicsll12:33
imagitronicsI want it to stay off forever :)12:33
imagitronicsbut I guess I could put that into my .profile or something12:33
TheSheepsorry, that's -x12:34
imagitronicsI was hoping there was a way to just prevent it from running all together12:34
TheSheepsure, just save your session on logout12:35
TheSheepwith the panel off12:35
imagitronicsmaking a live distro... it works after the first time you turn it off and save a session12:35
imagitronicsbut it wouldn't work for the first time install12:35
imagitronicsworst case I can remove everything from it and set it to hide, lol12:36
imagitronicseven better is probably just killing it12:36
imagitronicsgotta be a config file somewhere that starts it tho12:36
TheSheepif it's a sitribution, then you want to customize the session itself12:36
imagitronicsthere's some stuff about panels in the xinitrc12:39
imagitronicshrmm13:06
imagitronicswhat did I screw up.13:06
imagitronicswhen I click unlock on any window that seems to interact with the keychain, it doesn't unlock13:06
imagitronicsit doesn't ask me for a password or anything13:09
imagitronicsit just greys out the unlock button and then does nothign13:09
vkdhi anybody online?14:32

Delano-394980501When I start up in XFCE, my bars don't load... how come?18:01
rr72Delano-394980501~ that is a known issue iirc18:45
rr72open a terminal and run xfce4-panel or such, not in xubuntu ATM sorry18:45
knomeDelano-394980501, alt+f2 -> xfce4-panel18:45
knomerr72, feel free to refer to http://open.knome.fi/2009/07/05/panels-disappearing-and-other-frequently-asked-questions/18:46
Delano-394980501rr72, I don't run xubuntu; I run regular ubuntu but added xfce, which has worked fine for a few weeks18:46
knomeDelano-394980501, if you're on xfce, the mentioned command works18:47
rr72knome~ i tried from memory .... gimme something ok?18:47
rr72:-P18:47
knomerr72, heh18:47
rr72how do you open a terminal if the panels are gone unless you have a desktop icon18:47
rr72i didn't think all the way through rofl18:47
knomerr72, alt+f2 == run18:47
rr72i knew at one point but forgot, alt f3 is window settings?18:48
knomeno idea.18:48
rr72it's search for my ubuntu but this is heavily configed/modded18:48
rr72lol jk, not as much as what has to be done to windows18:49
knomerr72, an easy way to check default settings is to install a vanilla system on vbox or some other virtualization app18:49
rr72that's a great idea, never thought of that, instead just run a live cd but then have to remmeber18:50
knomeyeah, and you have to boot to that livecd18:50
rr72oh and that was a rhetorical question, just thinking aloud and showing the faults in my logic18:51
knomeheh18:51
Delano-429028863knome, got the bug fixed, thanks19:15
Delano-429028863knome, any idea why that happens, though?19:15

eglehello, could anyone please help to connect DSL on xubuntu, very urgent21:09
dm_synckBeen messing around with sysv-rc-confg. Anyone know where i can find a complete list of what services absolutely needed / on which  runlevels and what can safely be disabled on xubuntu 9.1022:30
TheSheepdepends on what you need, all services are there for a reason22:31
dm_synckstandard xubuntu install on a desktop pc. Mainly looking for info about the various boot / system loggers and udev22:32
TheSheepwell, you don't need to change anything for a standard install22:34
dm_synckLooking to optimize boot time by disabling un-needed services22:36
TheSheepdm_synck: then you fisr have to decide which ones are unneeded22:41
TheSheepfirst*22:41
TheSheepbecause all of them are need in some way or other in default install22:42
yunoshhi, is anyone else seeing tiny font sizes in some areas in xubuntu/mythbuntu? i'm talking about 2px tiny.22:42
shooreeis "su" a valid command for taking over root? I get authentication failure with my root p/w when trying it22:44
TheSheep!root | shooree22:46
ubottushooree: Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth... there is no root password. Then you will see that it is 'sudo' that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo22:46
* shooree facepalms22:46
shooreethank you.22:46
shooreeto tell you the truth, I've been using sudo nice and easy all along, while trying to figure this out :)22:47
TheSheepsudo -i works like su, btw, but it's better to use it with every command instead22:47
TheSheepI mean not every, only the ones that really need root22:48
shooreeI see.22:50
shooreeand shall promplty forget what I saw22:50
shooreeor promptly, whichever comes first.22:50
dm_synckThanks, I will see if I can find descriptions and decide what i need / don't need.22:55
