| Nivex | I installed xfce on my netbook last night and the Applications Menu is empty when I click on it, but there's plenty there when I bring up the menu editor | 12:25 |
|---|---|---|
| holstein | Nivex: the right-click one? or both? | 12:40 |
| holstein | is this in 11.10? | 12:40 |
| Nivex | the app menu in the panel. 11.04 | 12:41 |
| holstein | interesting | 12:41 |
| holstein | did you instal XFCE or xubuntu-desktop? | 12:42 |
| Nivex | xfce4 and a few other choice packages | 12:42 |
| Nivex | I thought maybe it was the configs I imported, so I backed up ~/.config/xfce4 and got it out of the way. Panels all snapped back to defaults but the apps menu was still shot :( | 12:43 |
| holstein | who knows what customizations happen though | 12:45 |
| holstein | to make xubuntu | 12:45 |
| holstein | i would think you could get a fairly generic functional XFCE though... | 12:45 |
| Nivex | odd... I picked the xubuntu session instead of the xfce session this time (first time I saw that in the login) and the apps menu is there | 12:45 |
| Nivex | If I can get things tweaked where I want them I might pull GNOME off this thing entirely | 12:46 |
| holstein | thats what we are doing with ubuntustudio | 12:46 |
| holstein | the xubuntu team is quite active too | 12:46 |
| Nivex | also trying to get compiz to work, not because I need all the fancy effect, but because the screen updates are smoother with acceleration | 12:50 |
| Nivex | but xfce and compiz aren't as tightly integrated as under gnome | 12:50 |
| Nivex | yep, definitely the difference between "Xfce session" and "Xubuntu session" for getting the applications menu to work. Very strange. | 12:53 |
| Nivex | not sure what I installed where | 12:53 |
| Nivex | oh charming. running compiz, I hit Alt+Space to bring up the window context menu and it crashes | 12:59 |
| holstein | lol | 13:00 |
| Nivex | I think I'll give up on compiz for now. found the xfce settings editor (omg hax!) and turned on compositing. Seems to work OK. | 13:08 |
