JeZ-l-Leecopy and paste does not work too well in 11.04 - will this be fixed in 11.10 ?01:09
JeZ-l-Leecurrently can copy and paste to desktop - have to drag and drop the file01:10
JeZ-l-Leecurrently can't*01:10
GridCubewhat kind of copy-paste? from where to where?01:13
GridCubeusing thunar to cut folders and paste them on another place works perfectly, crossing cuts and pastes usually wont work01:14
GridCubeif you cut something on thunar it wont probably paste on nautilus01:14
beardygnomeGridCube: I thin k what JeZ-l-Lee is saying is that you can't cut in Thunar and paste on to the Desktop01:17
beardygnomeyou have to drag/drop or paste into the /home/user/Desktop folder in Thunar01:18
PhalstaffI just loaded xubuntu how do I configure the wireless connection?01:39
PhalstaffThe device was found I need to access it set up the connection stff01:40
charlie-tcaJeZ-l-Lee: no, it won't be fixed. You still won't be able to copy and paste to the desktop, but it works fine in thunar01:48
charlie-tcaPhalstaff: rightclick the network manager in the panel01:49
Phalstaffokay:01:50
PhalstaffThank you charlie-tca ... I dont see the network manager.01:54
Phalstaffis there a way to see what the interface is called?01:55
charlie-tcait should look like two tv's in the panel, or maybe a quarter circle, I think01:55
charlie-tcaor a couple of plugs, maybe?01:55
charlie-tcaby usually right-clicking on the icon gives the name at the top01:56
Phalstaffhmmm  i dont have it back later thanks!!01:56

jnsl_where can i disable the annoying window roll up thingy when i scroll ?16:41
ochosijnsl_: the "roll up thingy" is called "shade"16:45
ochosijnsl_: go to the menu > settings > settings editor > xfwm4 > general > mousewheel_rollup and set that to false16:45
jnsl_ochosi thanks bud, i keep hitting the wheel when I'm hovering over windows apparently16:46
ochosijnsl_: and yeah, i see the irony of me saying that it's called shade (which it is called!) and the option being called rollup ;)16:46
jnsl_haha ;)16:46
jnsl_worked like a charm16:47

charlie-tcaoh, too late17:53
N3Hey, I installed Xubuntu on my sisters computer, and when it starts up it gets this "low-level" shell (It says something about Busy-Box).18:12
N3I just type exit and it works, but is there anyway to get rid of that18:12
charlie-tcaN3: did the install complete without errors?18:23
charlie-tcaUsually that means something did not finish18:23
N3charlie-tca: yeah, AFAIK everything wen't to plan.18:24
N3I've installed Ubuntu/Arch/DSL/BT5/Mint18:24
N3I just told her to type "exit"18:24
N3(which works, then it boots up normally)18:24
charlie-tcaand it goes to gdm then?18:25
N3yeah18:25
charlie-tcaweird18:25
N3strange how xubuntu uses gdm18:25
N3I might put slim on there18:25
charlie-tcaOnly times I have seen that, I did a new install on top and it worked18:25
charlie-tcawe are moving to lightdm for the next release18:25
N3its a old ass computer18:25
N3oh ok18:26
N3Yeah I ditched Ubuntu after the 11.04 release18:26
N3Xubuntu 11.04 is ok18:26
Guest54949Quick launch panel question: All my launchers are crammed to the left end of the panel. How do I center them?18:31
charlie-tcaadd a "separator" to the panel18:33
charlie-tcaon each end, and expand them. The launchers will be centered then18:33
Guest54949Thank! I tried adding separators but overlooked the expand feature. It worked!18:35
charlie-tcayou are welcome18:36

joshmcdhave you ever had a problem with the thumbnail service? (tumblerd)19:30
charlie-tcano19:31
joshmcdIt might have a memory leak? Is that something specific to xfce or is it more general?19:32
charlie-tca!info tumbler19:33
ubottutumbler (source: tumbler): D-Bus thumbnailing service. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.1.21-0ubuntu1 (natty), package size 58 kB, installed size 256 kB19:33
charlie-tcaLooks like Xfce19:33
joshmcdI think it may have been trying to thumbnail a 6gb jpeg 2000 file... it aquired 5gb of memory and all of the available swap19:35
joshmcdi feel like i should tell someone19:35
joshmcdMaybe the xfce forum?19:37
