[01:34] Full disk installation completes from desktop using 64bit [01:35] Never do a partial upgrade. [01:37] * Unit193 wonders why Ubuntu has options you should never use... [01:40] like partial upgrades? [01:40] because some users insist on doing things to hurt themselves, and we all believe in allowing that [01:41] Okay, back to the swimming pool [01:41] got to fix the pipes before dark here, about 1 more hour [01:41] That's just fine, but shouldn't there be a warning? [01:41] Anywho, have fun? [03:25] about the pipes? [03:25] you want a warning for what? [03:27] Unit193: you do know those things in the bottom panel are launchers, not just icons, right? [03:28] If you don't change the apps by editing the launcher, they are what they started as [03:28] charlie-tca: That's the one and only that will follow the defaults you pick [03:29] Those will always be what they started as, since they are not calling preferred settings, but actual applications [03:30] hm, apparently, my cheap computer is not any good for testing, since it keeps failing things [03:31] Yes, but links (ln) will not follow Menu > Settings > Settings Manager > Preferred Applications > Utilities > File Manager [03:32] Try setting to anything else and use Gigolo or a link on the desktop (Dir link) [03:40] Does it work after a reboot? [03:41] Nope [03:41] If it won't work after rebooting, that is a bug and should be filed [03:42] I thought xfce = require thunar [03:42] no [03:42] Sorry for being thick in that case [03:42] Xfce is very modular, no single module is required [03:42] No problem. it takes time to learn all the little things about this great environment. [03:43] I still learn something new about it every day. [03:43] To the best of my knowledge, gnome *does* require nautilus now, but we don't any part to make the rest of Xfce work [03:44] Of course, there is the thing that says if you remove something and it breaks things, maybe that wasn't a good idea :) [03:45] Dang, 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] I try to keep these discussions over here. It lets the user think we are all knowing ;) [03:46] Works for me :) [03:48] You're kidding? [04:07] yes [04:08] Going to sleep now. It is late for me [04:08] Good night, and see you in the mornign [04:08] Good night and good rest [06:27] Alright, I'm going to give up for now on finding how to do it (Only started about 12:30-1) [06:27] Sat Aug 13 02:27:20 EDT 2011 [06:29] However, 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] Launchpad bug 709147 in xubuntu-default-settings (Ubuntu) "Set default file manager" [Low,Fix released] https://launchpad.net/bugs/709147 [06:30] Err... Wrong bug, I was trying to point to Bug #794720 [06:30] Launchpad bug 794720 in exo (Ubuntu) "xubuntu desktop fails to respect "preferred applications"" [Medium,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/794720 [14:46] my computer hates me [14:47] that happens [14:47] One computer, will install anything except Xubuntu [14:47] That just seems wrong [17:17] charlie-tca: Anyway, if you didn't read up, the already reported bug is bug 794720 [17:17] Launchpad bug 794720 in exo (Ubuntu) "xubuntu desktop fails to respect "preferred applications"" [Medium,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/794720 [19:37] Unit193: read it [19:37] still a valid bug, but we don't have a good fix for it [22:46] I believe mr_pouit is right about that. mozilla apps are weird, in that sense.
