Kurdistanhey guys. any one know how to safely remove usb by right-click function like the normal ubuntu in lubuntu?09:26
bioterroryou have that option in pcmanfm09:27
Kurdistanbioterror how? I can only onmount.09:28
bioterrorand?09:28
Kurdistanin ubuntu you have two option when you right-click on usb device.09:28
Kurdistanyou can unmount and remove it safely09:29
KurdistanFaenza icon theme is so nice looking in lubuntu. :P09:29
bioterrorsync should be done when umounting09:30
Kurdistanbioterror sorry I didnt get you.09:30
bioterrorman sync says09:30
bioterror       sync - flush file system buffers09:31
Kurdistanbioterror plug in usb go to disk utility09:32
Kurdistanthen you can see, in swedish it says säker frånkoppling.09:32
KurdistanI know how to do this way, but I am lazy and want to right-click to do that.09:33
Kurdistanlike in normal ubuntu09:33
Kurdistandisk utility, unmount and then secure remove your usb media.09:34
Kurdistanförstår du:P kaksi? :)09:34
bot_heya09:36
=== bot_ is now known as Guest1837
Guest1837could anyone tell me, how to reconfigure xserver under Lubuntu? I'd like to change Keyboard Input and videocard settings09:37
Guest1837doing dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg does nothing:/09:37
=== Guest1837 is now known as m1co
m1coim running out of idea09:37
m1cos*09:37
bioterrorm1co, goto tty1, stop desktop manager, say sudo Xorg -configure, sudo mv xorg.conf.new /etc/X11/xorg.conf and edit that file09:43
m1cooke, thanks09:43
m1cobioterror, im unsure about how do i stop the desktop manager:P09:44
m1coim pretty newbie, havent touched linux for ages09:45
bioterrorsudo service gdm stop09:45
bioterroror xdm09:45
m1coboth are unrecognized services09:45
m1coim using the lxde/openbox aka lubuntu WM09:45
bioterrorlxdm09:46
bioterror:D09:46
Kurdistanbioterror any idea?09:46
bioterrorwhat09:46
Kurdistan:) sover du?09:46
bioterrorI broke my back again this morning09:47
bioterrorstaying at home09:47
Kurdistan:( not good. but I meant with usb unmount/safely remove usb device by right-click in general ubuntu.09:48
Kurdistanthis fetuare is missing in lubuntu09:49
bioterrorhahaha09:49
bioterrorcan you tell me the difference09:49
KurdistanI must go to disk utility to do so09:49
Kurdistanbioterror when you unmount the usb indicator can stil be seen. but safely remove it is gone.09:50
KurdistanI think safely remove is :) safely remove09:50
Kurdistanhttp://img21.imageshack.us/img21/5024/complicatedp.png    look to this picture09:51
Kurdistan:) ok kaksi if it is the same. then thx. you are the geek. :)09:52
Kurdistanha det bra biotettor. jag ska dra till skolan. hörs senare.09:53
bioterrorjeh09:53
bioterrorjust a moment09:53
Kurdistanokey09:54
bioterrorthat eject really should meet your needs09:54
Kurdistanlike I say the only option from pcmanfm is unmount.09:55
bioterrorUnmount" unmounts a single partition, "Safely Remove Drive" unmounts all partitions of that device.09:55
bioterrorFor example if you have a removable hard drive with 2 partitions selecting "Safely Remove Drive" for one of them would unmount both partitions, so that the device can be safely unplugged from your computer.09:55
bioterror"Eject" is for media that can actually be ejected, like CD/DVD drive. So it unmounts the media and then ejects it (quite important if you happen to have a slot drive without a physical eject button).09:56
Kurdistananyway if you say it is secure way, then I believe you.09:56
bioterrorWhich ones appear in the right-click menu depends on what type of device/media it is. For some devices even having all three options would make perfect sense.09:56
bioterrorI'll read more09:57
Kurdistanso thats the difference?09:57
Kurdistanbioterror read more and come up with how-to. :P09:58
Kurdistanfinally :P I think you understand me09:58
Kurdistanbye bioterror. gamla vän/old friend.09:59
bioterrorhi10:00

Gorilla_No_Bakahello every one19:06
bioterrorhi19:06
Gorilla_No_Bakathere tends to be a problem with the creation of menu entries in latest lubuntu..19:07
Gorilla_No_Bakaanybody has any idea which file i should modify in order to add my entry to the menu?? in jwm was quite easy my modifiyng the jwmrc file19:08
Gorilla_No_Bakathis is based in open box right?? pretty much like crunchbang.. in this case is an xml file i am looking for..19:09
Gorilla_No_Baka anybody.. has any idea where they hid it ??19:09
bioterrornope19:12
bioterroryou have to make a .desktop -file19:12
Gorilla_No_Bakawhy would they do that>?19:12
bioterror/usr/share/applications$19:13
bioterrorlook from there19:13
Gorilla_No_Bakait is a lot easier to just endit the menufile and point the way to the exec inn /usr/bin  -eter or whatever terminal use them19:13
bioterrorsure it is19:13
bioterrorbut that's how it is done with the LXDE19:13
bioterrorCategories=GTK;Utility;TextEditor;19:14
Gorilla_No_Bakahang on a sec mate goin` to /usr/share/applications$19:14
bioterrordefines it's place19:14
Gorilla_No_Bakacheers mate19:16
bioterrorI know, that's kinda retard. but that's how its done19:16
bioterrornot the easiest way to make applications start on login19:17
Gorilla_No_Bakaopen box with tint2 and jwm used to be a lot more transparent... this lubuntu is getting more anf more like it`s bigger brother UBUNTU.. hiding menu files hard coding dependencies so you can not remove certain packages and all that (plymouth for example)19:19
Gorilla_No_Bakai guess i am gonna apt-get autoremove all the lxd thing and install either jwm or icewm19:20
Gorilla_No_Bakathe power of root19:20
Gorilla_No_Bakanot sudo crap19:21
Gorilla_No_Baka:P19:21
bioterrorI like actually .desktop -files19:21

Gorilla_No_Baka i took the screen shots back in the day just to demostraTE to a friend of mine that linux rocks and can perform extremely well in sucha little ram that windows would crawl..19:53
Gorilla_No_Bakabut most of the time i would stay with  jwm icewm or openbox with tint19:54
szczurGorilla_No_Baka, i think this is not the correct way to convert people to linux :>19:54
bioterroryou can run windows xp with 64MB of RAM19:54
szczuror otherwise you will become a helpdesk guy for your friends :)19:55
szczurbioterror, right, question is what you can do with that19:55

GaryDhey...anyone here?22:03
bioterrorofcourse22:03
bioterroraround 24 guys22:04
bioterror;)22:04
bioterror!ask | GaryD22:05
ubot5GaryD: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-)22:05
GaryDlol...sweet. i was wondering.....i did a fresh install of lubuntu for a friend...she wanted to then play a burnt disc with .wav music on it. it did not play or ask to play, but instead would only let me move the files in the file manager. how would i get the disc to open in the music player automatically? thanks!22:06
bioterrorthis is second time22:06
bioterrorlast time someone made a hack for this22:06
* bioterror summons gilir22:07
phillwbioterror: the subject of music players is on the agenda for the meeting tomorrow.22:10
djswhat time is the meeting again?22:11
phillw17:00 GMT22:11
bioterrorphillw, yeah, but it's about mp3/flac/ogg players22:11
bioterrornot audio cd22:11
djswat are those?22:11
phillwbioterror: it's important that these things are brought up, as a wav CD *should* be able to be seen by the music player.22:12
GaryDalso aqualung wouldn't play the files. i removed it and installed deadbeef. still no luck until i installed some other things.22:13
bioterrorGaryD, 2010-11-20 21:47:24     <miasma>        I added a volman.desktop link to .config/autostart and configured thunar-volman to fire up aqualung22:13
bioterrorthat was a workaround to play audio cd22:14
GaryDfinally i ended up with rhythmbox.22:14
GaryDso aqualung needs to be running before it will pick up audio cds?22:14
bioterrorwell, in lubuntu it needs something like to play cd's22:17
bioterrormusic cd's22:17
bioterrormy laptop with lubuntu is ultra portable and doesnt have one22:17
GaryDI see22:21
