[07:15] <morri> hallloooo
[07:15] <morri> how do I get the desktop image to change again via terminal?
[07:16] <Unit193> morri: pcmanfm --help
[07:31] <morri> pcmanfm --desktop-pref just putting it i to remember lol
[09:30] <ActionParsnip> hi guys, when I press ALT+F2 does the run dialogue not get the focus for anyone?
[09:31] <bioterror> it annoys me too
[09:31] <bioterror> my solution was to install gmrun and configure alt+f2 to execute gmrun
[09:33] <ActionParsnip> was thinking that
[09:33] <ActionParsnip> os there a bug reported?
[09:35] <bioterror> yes
[09:35] <bioterror> if I remember right :D
[09:37] <ActionParsnip> found this https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?pid=992240
[09:38] <ActionParsnip> double press works :)
[09:50] <ActionParsnip> fixed via #9 here: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/lubuntu-default-settings/+bug/889414
[18:50] <saleem> hi , if i wanna enable this ppa https://launchpad.net/~gilir/+archive/lubuntu should i remove the stable one i.e https://launchpad.net/~lubuntu-desktop/+archive/ppa  ?
[18:51] <wxl> saleem: since gilir will have bleeding edge stuff and the version numbers will be higher not necessarily
[18:51] <wxl> say you've got 3 repos that all have package x
[18:51] <wxl> apt-get update will update the highest version number across all three repos
[18:52] <wxl> make sense?
[18:52] <saleem> should should i keep the stable there ? im sort of confused tbh
[18:52] <wxl> if you're, say, trying to get the latest lightdm-gtk-greeter on precise, you could always add gilir's, update, install the package, and then remove the repo
[18:53] <wxl> that would keep you from getting other updates that maybe you didn't want
[18:53] <saleem> right
[18:53] <wxl> but you can leave lubuntu-desktop and it won't hurt anything
[18:53] <wxl> they won't confuse one another
[18:53] <wxl> so to be more explicit:
[18:53] <wxl> repo 1 has package x version 1
[18:53] <saleem> that sounds much safer
[18:53] <wxl> repo 2 has package x version 2
[18:53] <wxl> repo 3 has package x version 5
[18:54] <wxl> if you apt-get update or install package x with all those repos installed, it will install version 5
[18:54] <Unit193> Well, either way you'll still be using testing software
[18:54] <wxl> well kind of
[18:54] <wxl> gilir's is about as bleeding edge as it gets
[18:54] <wxl> the dev staging ppa is a little less bleeding edge
[18:55]  * gilir will not recommend his PPA, unless you know what you realy do ...
[18:55] <saleem> out of all ubuntu derivatives i like lubuntu , it does everything which ubuntu / unity could do for me
[18:55] <wxl> i certainly wouldn't install it ;)
[18:55] <gilir> there is a big warning on the PPA page for a reason
[18:56] <saleem> yes i read that warning about being unstable packages on it gilir
[18:57] <wxl> if i were you i'd just wait
[18:57] <wxl> which reminds me. when *IS* lightdm-gtk-greeter giong to be in dev staging gilir ?
[18:58] <wxl> i know we're all impatient and all but… :)
[19:04] <gilir> wxl, I just fixed it and pushed it, it should be ok shortly (I hope ...)
[19:10] <saleem> lubuntu control center doesnt come anymore on latest version?
[19:15] <saleem> cant find it on synaptic
[19:21] <eaburns> Hi
[19:22] <eaburns> Has anyone tried using rhythmbox on lubuntu?
[19:22] <eaburns> I installed it from apt-get and it mostly seems to work, however, it segfaults whenever I try to play music
[19:25] <saleem> weird, i have desktop ppa enabled but still cant find lubuntu-control-center
[19:47] <saleem> :(
[19:53] <saleem> lot of people complained they cant find the lubuntu-control-center
[19:54] <saleem> howcome if the desktop ppa is enabled why wont it show on synaptic?
[20:08] <downbeam_> hello
