I installed raring, and MintMenu doesn't want to launch any applications except for the ones under Places and System. [02:22] Maccer: raring? you mean 13.04? [02:23] Correct holstein. [02:24] Maccer: i thought mintmenu was mint only.. do you have ubuntu or mint? [02:25] Ubuntu. I'm using a mint repository to get mintmenu though. [02:25] Maccer: you are using a few things that i wouldnt.. a PPA, and the development release.. that is, i wouldnt use either of those if stability were a goal [02:25] I had to. [02:26] But I'm not looking for debian or corporate stability, so I don't care or mind. [02:26] Maccer: nah.. you dont have to.. anyways, unfortunately, theres not much we can do to support the PPA package.. you'll need to ask the ppa maintainer.. and ask about 13.04 in #ubuntu+1 [02:27] Actually it's not even a PPA, it's straight off their repository package. [02:27] Maccer: sure, but "they" are who maintain it.. not us, unfortunately [02:28] holstein: XFCE has a good amount of MintMenu users. I ask here because I have a chance of finding some one else. [02:29] Maccer: cool.. this is not where to ask though, since its not a xubuntu package.. you'd be better asking in the mint channels on spotchat [03:13] Is there an easy way to enable mp3 playback on xubuntu without downloading the entire restricted extras package?

[15:31] go to settings, appearance, fonts and in the 'sub-pixel order' select 'none' [15:31] duelle: it's a trick to make the fonts look more smooth on an LCD screen, but that only works if the order of the subpixels matches [15:32] duelle: yours apparently doesn't, so either change it to the right order, or disable alltogether [15:32] TheSheep: Thanks a lot for that hint :) Worked like a charm^^ Looks much better now [15:33] glad to be of help [15:33] I'll look whether I can test the "right" order or keep it disabled at all.
