ahhughes | does mythbuntu 11.04 use gnome as its window manager (correct me if I have said something stupid)? | 04:09 |
---|---|---|
tgm4883 | ahhughes, nope | 04:11 |
tgm4883 | it uses xfce | 04:11 |
ahhughes | hmmmm, would that preclude me from opening a gnome gui (again correct my if Im a stoopid noob)? | 04:12 |
ahhughes | I appear to launch all sorts of gnome gui apps like eog, and do. | 04:14 |
mrand | ahhughes: it should not block you from using/launching any window manger you like. | 04:14 |
ahhughes | sweet, that rules out theory #6 for me :) | 04:14 |
mrand | Of course, it doesn't come on the mythbuntu disk, so you need to install it ;-) | 04:15 |
ahhughes | is there a gnome equivalent to this that I can install http://www.xfce.org/projects/xfce4-settings ? | 04:16 |
Zinn | [www.xfce.org] What is the Settings Manager? - Xfce | 04:16 |
ahhughes | because all the ubuntu doco e.t.c. that I read refers to Applicaiton -> Settings -> Prefereces e.t.c. and they are not part of mytbuntu's xfce settings. | 04:17 |
mrand | ahhughes: sorry, don't know. If you have infinite patience, you can wait around here to see if someone answers you, but it make take infinite time. I'd go looking on the ubuntu forums personally. | 04:18 |
ahhughes | yeah, looking of forums is something Im comfortable with... its a little hard when you don't know what to look for... but I'll get there :) | 04:22 |
superm1 | ahhughes, you are best off reading xubuntu documentation | 04:31 |
superm1 | it's closer to the way mythbuntu is set up | 04:31 |
superm1 | ubuntu stuff is gonna be outdated anyway for this release with the unity switchover | 04:31 |
ahhughes | this is all because I am trying to get touchegg working.... which I think is pretty $#&*@# impressive :) | 04:53 |
