Profus2hi everybody11:42
Profus2looking for a pdf-proggi for my newly installed xubuntu, meaning that I would like to create pdfs from any print dialogue11:43
Profus2first line is missing, which said: i am looking for a pdf-proggi for my newly11:44
Profus2any recommendation?11:44
knomeif it's the default installation, a postscript printe should exist by default11:45
schlaftierProfus2: I think you can print to a PDF file out of the box... there should be an option "print to file" along with the printer list11:45
Profus2ok, but this creates a *.ps file and I would like to create a pdf-File11:46
knomeProfus2, there's an option to output pdf11:46
Profus2@knome: you are right, thank you - must have missed that11:47
knomenp11:47
Profus2another question: how do I put thunderbird icon in the title bar?11:47
knometitle bar? do you mean the panel?11:48
Profus2the one most above11:48
Profus2could be panel11:48
knomeright click, click add new items, select launcher -> add, then fill in the fields and as the command, type "thunderbird" (without quotes)11:49
Profus2in German it says: Leiste11:49
Profus2@knome: there is no thunderbird icon11:52
knomeProfus2, look from "all icons"11:52
Profus2looks like this is a launcher for more than one application11:52
knomeyes, you can add more applications or just one.11:52
knomeif you add more, you get a small arrow next to the icon11:52
knomeif you add one, then it's just a "normal" button/icon11:53
Profus2can I put an app launcher serveral times or just once?11:55
knomeas many times as you like11:57
Profus2ok, i removed all other apps, but there is no thunderbird icon11:59
Profus2which makes it a useless thing imho11:59
knomei'm not sure if i get you - did you look at the right side?11:59
Profus2which right side?12:00
knomeright side of the panel12:00
Profus2the symbol is a blue dot12:00
Profus2I moved it from the right side to the left side of the panel12:01
knomeProfus2, so you mean you can't find the thunderbird icon from the icon dialog?12:01
Profus2if I click the blue dot thunderbird starts, but I am setting desktop up for some other person12:01
Profus2so if the thunderbird icon is not showing up, this is useless12:02
Profus2"Icon diaolg"????12:02
Profus2if I rightclick on "blue dot" and select "properties"12:02
knomeyes, just above "command" there's an icon12:03
Profus2I see "configure quick launcher" dialog12:03
knomeis it the thunderbird icon?12:03
Profus2no, its a blue dot with questionmark inside12:04
knomethen click it12:04
Profus2that's it, thank you for your patience12:05
knomeno problem12:05
johanHow does one change gdm theme in xubuntu.12:08
johan?12:08
knomejohan, try googling gdm2setup12:09
* Psilocybin_Elf shrugs.12:09
johanI don't see that the googling helps. There is no package called gdm2setup according to my package manager, and gdmsetup (as it recommends as replacement) do not have the feature of changing themes.12:11

hideo1Hello12:54
hideo1I would like to understand how xubuntu mount devices. Would anybody help me? :12:55
hideo1More specificly, when iPod is connected to my box, xubuntu mount it on /media/IPOD. I would like to know how xubuntu know the media name, IPOD.12:56
knomehideo1, that's the device name12:57
hideo1Is the device name from my iPod? Or it is defined somewhere under /etc12:58
hideo1?12:58
knomeit's the device name for your ipod12:58
hideo1Thanks, knome. Do you know where the name is defined? I checked fstab but there is no entry for /media/IPOD.13:03
knomehideo1, the name comes directly from your ipod. if you mount a fat usb stick, it will mount to /media/FAT_DISK_LABEL13:04
knomehideo1, check the ipod manual or so - i've done this once, but it was with rockbox software on ipod and it's somewhat long time ago13:04
hideo1Oh, I see.13:06
hideo1Thank you so much, knome. :)13:06
knomeno problem13:06
knomeleaving for late lunch + grocery store now, see you later guys13:10
