tomi_how do i stop displaying ~/Desktop on desktop?01:04
jmarsdentomi_: In Lubuntu?  If what you are seeing is a shortcut, delete it.01:06
tomi_what i am seeing is the entire content of ~/Desktop01:07
tomi_yes lubuntu01:07
mama21mama"hola"01:07
mama21mama"Tengo Problemas párrafo USAR EL Navegador Por Defecto"01:07
mama21mama"I have trouble using the default browser"01:08
tomi_mama21mama, i use firefox and have set that in preferred applications ... works ok for me01:11
mama21mama"use firefox"01:11
mama21mama"still not working."01:11
jmarsdentomi_: Well, that is probably  as designed... there was nothing in ~/Desktop in your default install.  So you can just move all those files to some other place, if you do not what them on your desktop.01:11
jmarsdenmama21mama: You will need to be more specific.  "Not working"?  What exactly happens when you open the browser?01:12
tomi_jmarsden, oh, i did not do a default install i used the instructions on psychocat to remove ubuntu andd install lubuntu-desktop01:13
jmarsdenThat should not matter.  Those instructions do not add things into ~/Desktop either.  You must have put those files there yourself.01:13
tomi_so must be a hangover from ubuntu setting eh?01:13
mama21mama"sylpheed not open the link"01:13
mama21mama"I\u0026#39;m translating the English language is difficult"01:14
tomi_oh they are things that were in my ~/Desktop from when i was using ubuntu01:14
jmarsdenmama21mama: so the browser works OK?  But clicking on mailto: lines does not?01:14
jmarsdentomi_: OK, so do something like     mkdir ~/myolddesktopstuff ; mv ~/Desktop/* ~/myolddesktopstuff01:15
tomi_yep ty jmarsden01:15
jmarsdentomi_: You're welcome.01:15

mama21mama"and firefox in / opt / fierfox / firefox"01:17
mama21mamay firefox en /opt/fierfox/firefox01:17
jmarsdenThat is a known issue in some older versions of Lubuntu, I think.01:17
mama21mamahoy borre el /opt/firefox01:19
mama21mama"now delete the / opt / firefox"01:19
jmarsdenmama21mama: If you refuse to answer my questions and just do things, I cannot help you.01:19

jmarsdenparnassus: What is in the file    ~/.config/libfm/pref-apps.conf      on your machine?02:21
jmarsdenparnassus: Also, what do you have set in Sylpheed under  Configuration -> Common Preferences -> Details -> External Commands   ?02:24

mama21mamaxD02:30
mama21mamaalli esta el problema02:30
mama21mama"there is the problem"02:30
mama21mamajmarsden,02:30
mama21mama:D02:30
jmarsdenOK.  The default is to set that to      sensible-browser '%s'     which should work better for you.02:31
mama21mamajmarsden, gracias02:32
jmarsdenYou are welcome :)02:32
mama21mama:)02:32
mama21mamajmarsden, jedi02:32
mama21mama"que lindo now open the link."02:33
hyperairwhy's there a hyperair between common and preferences? O_o02:58
jmarsdenNo idea... I wondered that myself when I saw it :)03:00
jmarsdenMaybe he hit h and then tab ?03:01
hyperairheh03:37
maahesisn't pcmanfm supposed to be able to set your wallpaper?07:16
jmarsdenmaahes: Really?  A file manager sets the wallpaper?  Seems odd... what makes you think pcmanfm should be able to do that?07:31
maahesjmarsden: erm, nautilus does, and quick searching about on the internet showed that pcmanfm at least *used* to do so, not too long ago in fact, and was the default method of lxde07:32
maahesonly I can't seem to find the option to make it do so.07:32
jmarsdenOK.  In Lubuntu 11.04 here, start -> Preferences -> Customize Look at feel     seems more the right place for that sort of thing.07:33
maahesnot exactly using lubuntu, just trying to use lxde and some backends07:34
PhosphenesIs there some way to give all the desktops different wallpapers?07:34
PhosphenesChanging one always changes all of them07:34
jmarsdenmaahes: I don't know... I can right click on the desktop and change wallpaper there, does that work in stock LXDE?07:38
jmarsdenPhosphenes: I don't know of a way to set wallpaper per virtual desktop.  Interesting idea, though.07:39
maahesjmarsden: I'm not using lxde. I'm just trying to use some of its backends with awesome. some forum posts I had found referred to an option in preferences which is not there. I just wondered if it was something I could get with a compile-option07:39
PhosphenesI know you could do it in kubuntu07:39
PhosphenesYou had to set some option for allowing separate widgets per desktop07:39
PhosphenesBut since lubuntu doesn't have widgets I guess not07:40
maahesyou can do it in kubuntu and ubuntu with some extra package, dunno about lubuntu07:40
jmarsdenPhosphenes: Lubuntu is a lot smaller and lighter than Kubuntu, so it may not have that capability.07:40
PhosphenesOh well, I guess that's what I get for wanting better performance ;)07:41
jmarsdenPhosphenes: well... then the real question is *did* you get better performance :)  if you did... it's probably worth the tradeoff!07:42
PhosphenesIt definitely was worth it. I'm only using a netbook and it couldn't run all the flair of kubuntu.07:42
jmarsdenOK.  Good :)07:43
PhosphenesI also tried xubuntu which ran pretty well, but I still prefer the lubuntu desktop07:43
giampieroHello everybody, I'm a former Ubuntu and new Lubuntu users, I've got a few questions. Is there anyone who fells like trying to answer me?10:44

AmberJOfcourse, there's Alt+F2 run dialog...but there should be a way to add custom entries to lxde menu17:35
AmberJIsn't there a 'better' menu generation utility that works with lxde (e.g. https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Fluxbox#Menu_Management) ?17:39
