raevolis there a way to "theme" xubuntu notifications so they look just like normal ubuntu notifications? without the close button, and so they go transparent when moused over?07:53
Name141is Beta2 going to be pretty much "a look in to the future to see how 11.10 will look/feel" ? (minus some stability I guess) ?08:02
Sysiraevol: you can use notify-osd/notification-daemon or whatever it's called instead of xfce4-notifyd08:09
SysiName141: at this point I'd say you should grab daily-live, it should be pretty close to rc/final08:09
raevolSysi: when i did that in 11.04 it borked usb unmounting, i was getting extraneous popup windows with error messages08:10
Name141Sysi: how do I do that?08:10
raevoli don't think libnotify (or whatever it is) is integrated with thunar, or whatever handles volume management in xubuntu08:10
SysiName141: http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/xubuntu/daily-live/current/08:10
Sysiraevol: I hardly believe that's possible08:11
Name141Sysi: assuming http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/xubuntu/daily-live/current/oneiric-desktop-amd64.iso for the 64bit ?08:11
raevolSysi: what you believe and what is true aren't always the same thing08:12
raevolbut i could try it again in 11.10 if you are fairly confident something has changed08:12
SysiName141: yes08:13
Sysiraevol: shouldn't have changed but should work anyway :P08:13
Sysithough I'm not sure, I prefer xfce4-notifyd08:14
wariorHi, is there any known bug with indicator plugin in oneiric, which makes changing volume by scrolling malfunctional?10:41
ulrichHallo! Ich habe ein Problem mit LibreOffice unter Xubuntu 11.04, ich weiß aber nicht, ob es ein Problem von LO oder von Xfce (oder sonst von was ist)13:50

GridCubetry that15:34
cousin_luigiwhat should I delete from my homedir in order to restart with the default desktop settings?15:34
chirag_d_gr8ok15:34
GridCube!default15:34
ubottuTo change the default application for a filetype in Nautilus, right-click on a file, select Properties -> Open With, and then change the setting.15:34
GridCubenautilus?! D:15:35
LeVarTemitEvening guys, let me ask a noob question: so, if I understand correctly, Xubuntu 11.10 wil keep the traditional 'start menu'?  I mean, contrary to Unity & Gnome3 - correct?15:37
cousin_luiginevermind, I managed15:38
GridCubeLeVarTemit, yes15:39
LeVarTemitAwesome :)15:39
GridCubeindeed15:39
LeVarTemitAnd what would be the drawback of Xubuntu for an "ex-ubuntu user" ?15:40
GridCubeyou will be using xfce instead of gnome15:40
GridCubeits different15:40
GridCubethats about it15:40
LeVarTemiti can still install LibreOffice from teh software center?15:41
GridCubesure15:41
GridCubeyou can install everything from the software center15:41
LeVarTemitawsome² .. how about Wine?15:41
GridCubeyou can install everything from the software center15:41
GridCubeits ubuntu using xfce, whit some other modifications, but its the same sources for everithing15:42
LeVarTemityep15:42
GridCubeif it works in ubuntu it should work on xubuntu15:43
LeVarTemitgreat15:43
GridCubeexcept you want to run things highly integrated whit gnome15:43
GridCubelike applets of stuff like that15:43
LeVarTemitso, no integrated IM messages integrated into the panel?15:43
GridCubethose will probably not work because you will be not using gnome in the first place15:44
LeVarTemit(Empathy, gwibber, email)15:44
GridCubethat one does work15:44
LeVarTemit:)15:44
GridCubeubuntuone doesnt work as far as i know15:44
LeVarTemitah, i can do without15:44
GridCubenever tried to use it tho15:44
LeVarTemitis it known what the "core people" of xubuntu want to do in the future? do they want to keep the start menu?15:45
GridCubeLeVarTemit, Xubuntu uses xfce, so the roadmap for xfce is pretty much the roadmap for xubuntu15:47
GridCubehttp://wiki.xfce.org/releng/4.10/roadmap?s[]=roadmap#roadmap_planned_features15:47
GridCubeofcourse xubuntu works on other things too15:47
GridCubebut for the things you are concerned about its pretty much it15:47
GridCubexfce has no plans whatsoever to ever change the menu system15:48
LeVarTemitexcellen :)15:49
LeVarTemitt15:49
GridCube:)15:49
GridCubechirag_d_gr8, could you?15:49
LeVarTemitnot that i'm against tablet-y things, .. but they shouldnt throw out the good stuff15:49
chirag_d_gr8GridCube: I try your advice after some time15:50
jorisHow do I set a compose key to make special characters in Xubuntu ?15:51
chirag_d_gr8GridCube: do i have to press ctrl+alt+F1 during boot time or during grub display?15:51
LeVarTemitjoris > you after the euro sign?15:55
jorisalso but also normal accents...15:55
LeVarTemiti found a solution for ubuntu, but i don know if that works for xubuntu, .. well guys?15:55
jorisI know how to do it in gnome, but there seems to be nu such menu in xfce, or at least I can't find it...15:56
LeVarTemit(as for ubuntu , there was plenty of instructions on google .. the solution i use now uses the keyboard setting 'usa international with dead keys' .. if you google for that youĺl find it)15:56
LeVarTemitoh, right, then you need something else . . .15:57
jorisyeah I know about dead keys, but I prefer to use a compose key15:57
LeVarTemityou could try xubuntu-offtopic16:00
LeVarTemitmaybe it's more lively there16:00
GridCubejoris, you have to configure they on >Configuration >keyboard >shortcuts16:00
GridCubechirag_d_gr8, after grub16:01
GridCubeonce the system should have started16:01
LeVarTemitdoes anyone know if KDE is on irc?16:09

K4kCan someone please help me with an xfce4-power-manager error that I'm getting. I get the error in the following pastebin link with the --no-daemon argument. http://pastebin.com/bqRm5Q8h19:31
charlie-tcarun it with --sync and attach the resulting backtrace to a bug report19:55
charlie-tcafile the bug with ubuntu-bug xfce4-power-manager19:55
K4k--no-daemon as well or just --sync?19:56
K4kwith only --sync I get no output19:57
K4k--no-daemon --sync gives me the same output as I pasted19:57
charlie-tcaand if don't use either one?19:59
charlie-tcaDid you remove gnome-power-manager?20:00
K4kDoes it need to be removed or just not running? I was clear on that earlier.20:04
K4ks/was/wasn't20:04
K4kwell, I just removed gnome-power-manager packages and I get the same error20:05
K4klooks like the bug I'm filing has already been reported.20:07
