charlie-tcaFull disk installation completes from desktop using 64bit 01:34
charlie-tcaNever do a partial upgrade.01:35
* Unit193 wonders why Ubuntu has options you should never use...01:37
charlie-tcalike partial upgrades?01:40
charlie-tcabecause some users insist on doing things to hurt themselves, and we all believe in allowing that01:40
charlie-tcaOkay, back to the swimming pool01:41
charlie-tcagot to fix the pipes before dark here, about 1 more hour01:41
Unit193That's just fine, but shouldn't there be a warning?01:41
Unit193Anywho, have fun?01:41
charlie-tcaabout the pipes?03:25
charlie-tcayou want a warning for what?03:25
charlie-tcaUnit193: you do know those things in the bottom panel are launchers, not just icons, right?03:27
charlie-tcaIf you don't change the apps by editing the launcher, they are what they started as03:28
Unit193charlie-tca: That's the one and only that will follow the defaults you pick03:28
charlie-tcaThose will always be what they started as, since they are not calling preferred settings, but actual applications03:29
charlie-tcahm, apparently, my cheap computer is not any good for testing, since it keeps failing things 03:30
Unit193Yes, but links (ln) will not follow Menu > Settings > Settings Manager > Preferred Applications > Utilities > File Manager03:31
Unit193Try setting to anything else and use Gigolo or a link on the desktop (Dir link)03:32
charlie-tcaDoes it work after a reboot?03:40
Unit193Nope03:41
charlie-tcaIf it won't work after rebooting, that is a bug and should be filed03:41
Unit193I thought xfce = require thunar03:42
charlie-tcano03:42
Unit193Sorry for being thick in that case03:42
charlie-tcaXfce is very modular, no single module is required03:42
charlie-tcaNo problem. it takes time to learn all the little things about this great environment.03:42
charlie-tcaI still learn something new about it every day.03:43
charlie-tcaTo the best of my knowledge, gnome *does* require nautilus now, but we don't any part to make the rest of Xfce work03:43
charlie-tcaOf course, there is the thing that says if you remove something and it breaks things, maybe that wasn't a good idea :)03:44
Unit193Dang, I'm going to have to be the idiot that says "You can't use anything but the Xfce file manager on Xfce" (Changed wording to sound more stupid :P )03:45
charlie-tcaI try to keep these discussions over here. It lets the user think we are all knowing ;)03:45
charlie-tcaWorks for me :)03:46
Unit193You're kidding?03:48
charlie-tcayes04:07
charlie-tcaGoing to sleep now. It is late for me04:08
charlie-tcaGood night, and see you in the mornign04:08
Unit193Good night and good rest04:08
Unit193Alright, I'm going to give up for now on finding how to do it (Only started about 12:30-1)06:27
Unit193Sat Aug 13 02:27:20 EDT 201106:27
Unit193However, Bug #709147 and http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~xubuntu-dev/xubuntu-default-settings/trunk/view/head:/usr/share/xubuntu/applications/defaults.list seem to be a tad bit related (as does http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~xubuntu-dev/xubuntu-default-settings/trunk/view/head:/etc/xdg/xdg-xubuntu/xfce4/helpers.rc and ~/.config/xfce4/helpers.rc )06:29

charlie-tcamy computer hates me14:46
GridCubethat happens14:47
charlie-tcaOne computer, will install anything except Xubuntu14:47
charlie-tcaThat just seems wrong14:47
Unit193charlie-tca: Anyway, if you didn't read up, the already reported bug is bug 79472017:17
ubottuLaunchpad bug 794720 in exo (Ubuntu) "xubuntu desktop fails to respect "preferred applications"" [Medium,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/79472017:17
charlie-tcaUnit193: read it19:37
charlie-tcastill a valid bug, but we don't have a good fix for it19:37
astraljavaI believe mr_pouit is right about that. mozilla apps are weird, in that sense.22:46
