tontsa_does anyone know how to modify the right click menu?16:49
charlie-tcadid not you could?16:52
charlie-tcaDid not know you could.16:52
tontsa_hm.. there should be way in 4.6?16:53
charlie-tcaNot that I know of.16:53
charlie-tcaYou could ask that in #xfce, though.16:53
tontsa_oh well.. there used to be?16:53
charlie-tcaNot that I know of16:53
RedaxxxHow can I see what version of Xfce I'm running?17:23

nikolamuuuuh17:41
nikolamthat ^%$*^% LTS update17:41
nikolamand its idea of killing grub17:42
nikolamevery time I upgrade kernel on regular updates on LTS I have to set it manually17:42
nikolamIt screws (hd0,0) with something insane17:42
nikolamand puts UUID instead of root=/dev/xy designation17:43
nikolamI was standing and doing nothing 4 hours because of that17:43
charlie-tcagrub does?17:43
nikolamit basically kills grub with uuid and that changing device thing in menu.lst17:44
nikolamI can boou after booting from cd and manually editing menu.lst17:44
nikolamHorror17:44
nikolamboot17:44
nikolamI imagine those ppl having server on it have.. alternate solutions, i suppose..17:44
charlie-tcathat would be the bug that keeps getting declared invalid because grub isn't supposed to be doing that...17:44
nikolamAs I know, it asks me during update, what to do with menu.lst, regarding new kernel update17:45
charlie-tcaServer people almost never will upgrade the kernel17:45
nikolamseems that selecting anything but "leave it there" scr.. things up in menu.lst17:46
nikolamcharlie-tca, I suppose they do upgrade in regular 8.04.x updates17:46
charlie-tcaWhat if you leave it there, then boot to recovery menu and update grub?17:46
nikolamthere wer dozen ofthose updates since lts came out17:46
nikolamnothing can boot17:47
nikolamsince there is no single item in menu that works17:47
charlie-tcaNo, server is all text based, and seldom will upgrade the kernel. They install security updates only, much of the time17:47
nikolami could invoke only grub cli17:47
nikolamI suppose 2.6.24-27 and previous are just security updates.17:48
charlie-tcano17:48
charlie-tcaIt's like doing a sudo apt-get update and sudo apt-get upgrade17:49
charlie-tcayou miss most of the updates then17:49
charlie-tcabut I think I do know the issue you are referring to.17:50
charlie-tcaThe good news is lucid doesn't have that problem17:50
charlie-tcaAnd, it is a direct upgrade from 8.0417:51
nikolamThats fine. i think maybe it would be clever not to upgrade from LTS to Lucid, but to do fresh install, I suppose17:51
charlie-tcaIf you want ext4 and grub2, otherwise it is just like upgrading each release17:52
nikolamor, I dont know, if I would do it anyway, maybe after clearing some disk space, I could do uograde to lucid now and suffer some testing in meantime :))17:53
subspiderhello everybody17:55
subspiderhello charlie-tca17:56
charlie-tcaHello, subspider17:56

charlie-tcanikolam: just don't do it on a production server. It isn't quite there yet18:01
nikolamChanServ, well its my home machine that I was proud with beoing stable and everything18:02
nikolamI was just mentioning other uses18:02
charlie-tcaI know that one. I got mine up to 9.10 now, and will upgrade to lucid at RC testing18:03
nikolamSince I was on this LTS form the start, I had to fix that menu.lst several times and had about 2 kernel upgrades that werent ok and needed to wait half a day etc, trath my report18:03
charlie-tcayup18:04
nikolamClosed Ati driver stopped me upgrading to 8.10 and 9.0418:04
nikolamnow it suppose free drive catched up, will see18:05

Myrttiubuntuguide isn't itself recommended by the community, btw.18:53
charlie-tcaI believe we call it Xubuntu Help? click the help icon on the panel or Applications -> Help18:53
Sysigoogle is great guide..18:53
