trebuchetI'm encountering this bug, but a fix mentioned by the last poster in the bugtracker links to wiki.netbsd.se, which is dead(no google cache or archive.org version either), so I cannot read what the work-around is. How do I mount my UFS/FFS2 under Lucid? https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/util-linux/+bug/26866500:33
trebuchetThe FFS2 was made with OpenBSD4.7-i386.00:33

tonytraductorI installed Xubuntu 9.10 on a friend's laptop, and she has lost her panel. I don't have a machine here with the same system (I have a laptop with jaunty/openbox, and a debian box with openbox & xfce on it).03:55
tonytraductorI told her to do alt-f2 and type in xfce4-panel, but that did not start the panel (told her the program doesn't exist).03:55
tonytraductorwhat does she need to run to restart the panel? (xfce4-panel works on my debian box, but, admittedly, this is stable/lenny...is there a newer XFCE on xubuntu?)03:56

ubottutonytraductor: Did you panels disappear? Press alt+f2 and run: xfce4-panel | See also: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/XubuntuPanels | Want to theme your panels? See http://xubuntu.wordpress.com/2007/10/12/howto-set-a-background-image-for-your-panel/03:58
likemindeadAnd go with the latest Xubuntu (10.04) for sure.03:58
tonytraductorthat's what I said (alt-f2 -> xfce4-panel). works here...I think she may have just type it wrong...hold on03:59
tonytraductorI tried xubuntu 9.10 and 10.04 on my netbook, but both gave me headaches.  I installed debian/lenny and it works great.  I think it just isn't fast enough hardware for the newer ubuntus (1.2ghz / 512mb)04:04
tonytraductoranyway, we got her panel back up. she DID type xfce4-panel wrong the first time.04:04
tonytraductorthanks!04:04

abraThe same error happens, when I open already downloaded file in Firefox04:13
abraI think, this sentence is more correct "I receive the same error, when I open the already downloaded file in Firefox."05:14
ping__lucehi, is there a way to access a xfce pane through ssh (with -X option) ?07:42
_Techie_ping__luce, i would presume that you could run xfce4-panel inside a SSH session with X forwarding set up correctly08:01
ping__luce_Techie_: thanks, but what if I have two panels?08:03
_Techie_ping__luce, if both panels are started by the single command then i would think that they would both appear08:04
ping__lucethanks _Techie_08:06
ping__luce_Techie_: tried, but without success: it says that xfce4-panel is already running08:11
_Techie_ping__luce, unfortunately without an install of Xubuntu to check syntax against, i cant help you out any further08:12
Niglopwhat advantages would xubuntu provide superior to other distro's with xfce environment?09:15
Niglop??? lol09:18
_Techie_Niglop, what advantages would any other distro provide of Xubuntu?09:36
_Techie_over*09:36
Nigloplol09:36
Niglopobviously each distro is different when using different environments and window managers09:37
Niglopbut I have chosen xfce09:37
liljanjust wondering.. gotta try install xubuntu with grub with windows 7.. uhm, is it recommended having 2os at the same harddrive?14:28
charlie-tcaliljan: that is called dual-boot, and should be fine. Please read the release notes referenced in the topic here, though.14:29

SysiKangarooo: nm-applet is the panel applet, package may be network-manager-gnome21:43
