[08:56] <coz_> hey guys.... I am noticing on edubuntu/lucid  menus dont always refresh with newly installed applications...something I havent seen for a few years...there use to be a command similar to  update-menus  in the past ...is something like that still available?
[18:37] <markit> ltsp, how prevent thin clients to blank screen after some minutes of inactivity? I've kubuntu and was not able to do, wondering how is done with gnome
[18:57] <highvoltage> markit: good question
[18:58] <markit> highvoltage: thanks, hope for a good answer ;)
[18:58] <highvoltage> heh :)
[18:59] <highvoltage> well I think in gnome you'll use gconf to configure that, but there's nothing like that in kde
[18:59] <highvoltage> I think there is an lts.conf setting, not sure if it will work on kde, but if it doesn't, I guessyou could ask on #kubuntu
[18:59] <markit> what does gconf do? because kde has the possibility to have "global config" files, the ones I'm using right now
[19:00] <highvoltage> markit: http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/lucid/man5/lts.conf.5.html
[19:00] <markit> the problem is that I can't understand where they will act...
[19:00] <markit> I mean,the program is run on the server
[19:00] <highvoltage> on that page, it describes a setting for X_BLANKING
[19:00] <markit> let me check
[19:00] <highvoltage> not sure if that will do what you want
[19:01] <highvoltage> yeah, I guess if that blanking you're getting is kde-specific, then someone on #kubuntu would most likely be able to help you
[19:01] <highvoltage> I just haven't used KDE in a long time
[19:02] <markit> #kubuntu people don't use ltsp, seems
[19:02] <markit> and #ltsp say "use gnome"
[19:03] <markit> but I don't understand how the config is intended to work, being gnome or kde
[19:04] <highvoltage> markit: if it's kde blanking the screen, then it probably wouldn't matter if you use ltsp or not
[19:05] <highvoltage> just ask how you'd do it on a local machine and do it the same on your ltsp server, it should work
[19:05] <markit> this is the problem
[19:05] <markit> I can do in local machine with systemsettings "power saving" features
[19:05] <markit> but once I login as client, I've not available the same way
[19:05] <markit> and in any case seem they do no difference
[19:06] <markit> even if I copy config files
[19:06] <markit> that's why I ask how is it done in gnome
[19:07] <markit> because, in any case, gconf works on SERVER config files
[19:07] <markit> while ltsp is just a X-Window server
[19:07] <markit> so those config should not affect the client
[19:07] <markit> s/ltsp/ltsp-client
[19:28] <highvoltage> markit: are you running anything as local apps? if not, it should really work the same. did you try the lts.conf setting?
