beataStill stumped, re: Mouse cursor theme only changes over *some* parts of the screen. I wonder if I'm not missing something obvious. For example, over the menu bar of Pidgin's chat window, the cursor is default; however, over the menu bar of firefox it is (which I set in the manager) redglass.01:09
hythlodaeushey everyone. i'm with a bit of a problem here01:31
hythlodaeussearched the forums alerady, couldn't find a solution01:32
hythlodaeusi'm experiencing complete freezes at unspecified times01:32
hythlodaeusby complete freezes i mean, i'm unable to do anything. not even move the mouse around, and I eventually have to restart01:33
hythlodaeusbefore installing xubuntu i had vanilla ubuntu installed, and had the same problem01:33
hythlodaeuswhich makes me think it might be related with my partition's file system01:34
hythlodaeusi'm dual booting along with winxp01:34

imran-ukhi, i want to install xubuntu 12.04 on wifes ibm t30 laptop. is the mah-jong game included/available for it or does that need gnome? (i'm guessing no)09:47
TheSheep!find mahjong09:48
ubottuFound: xmahjongg, gnome-mahjongg, kdegames-mahjongg-data, kmahjongg, libkmahjongglib409:48
imran-ukTheSheep, sorry - trying to interpret that: so i can install gnome-mahjong and play it on xubuntu without having to run the gnome desktop env?09:49
imran-uki.e. i can play the mahjong game that comes with ubuntu 10.04/debian squeeze etc in the xfce env?09:50
TheSheepimran-uk: yes09:51
TheSheepimran-uk: it will install some gnome libraries for it, but it's not such a big deal09:51
imran-ukTheSheep, ok great, thank you09:51

TobyKOk I am in some serious trouble. I wanted to attempt making my xubuntu desktop available in windows so I installed the package called tightvncserver. After having made several attempts to making my windows connect to my xubuntu desktop I decided I was spending too much time on this and just did an "apt-get remove lightvncserver"11:32
TobyKHowever, because lightvnc already changed some desktop settings I did a lightdm restart, BUT after that my UI was gone. I jump back to the login screen and when I try to login my nvidia driver tries to get the screen settings I guess but it fails and jumps back to the login screen11:33
TobyKI tried removing my xorg.conf and replacing it with a blank one, but that did not work either. Any idea as to what else I can do ?11:34
TobyKI think it's probably because my machine is trying to use another windows manager but it can't, but I'm not sure how this can be fixed11:34
TobyKSooo .. any of you have an idea? I'm not that advanced at linux, and I ran out of stuff that I knew I could try11:35
TobyKsorry, it's tightvncserver btw, not light*11:36

xyttyHi there17:01
TheSheephi xytty, how's the weather in France?17:01
xyttyIt's quite sunny today, and that's pretty cool !17:03
TheSheepthe spring is coming finally17:04
xyttyBut I love winter... =/17:05
TheSheepso, you like xubuntu so far?17:05
xyttyYup, I've tested a lot of distribution and after all xubuntu is the fastest and the most usefull for me17:07
TheSheepthat's weird, there should be faster distros17:09
TheSheepbut less useful, of course17:09
kvarleyI'm not sure who it was, but when I asked about XUbuntu and the Ctrl+F4 shortcut to close browser tabs they said they also wanted to know.17:33
TheSheepctrl+w17:34
kvarleyAnyway, if they're about. You do Menu>Settings>Settings Manager>Window Manager go to the keyboard tab and scroll down to "Workspace 4" and either remove or change the shortcut from Ctrl+F4 to something else and that'll free up the shortcut for the browsers to use.17:34
kvarleyTheSheep's method also works17:34
xubuntu6how can i echo gui commands in the terminal?17:46
TheSheepxubuntu6: what are gui commands?17:48
xubuntu6well aren't commands are being sent in the background when i click a button? just wondering if there was a way to see these commands say when i open a program graphically or click a button in one those programs17:51
TheSheepnot really17:53
TheSheepwell, they are not the terminal commands17:53
TheSheepyou can see the system calls that the application makes with strace17:54
TheSheepjust do 'strace your_command' in a terminal, replace your_command with the program you want to run17:54
