[10:19] <jared> silverlion: won't it just be the normal release cycle?
[10:19] <jared> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RaringRingtail/ReleaseSchedule
[10:30] <silverlion> jared thx 4 posting. waiting for clean install after collegue of mine has crashed my windows harddrive
[10:32] <jared> silverlion: no worries, I'm not on the mailing list anymore so wasn't sure if there were any announcements contrary but I believe it's still on track
[10:36] <silverlion> jared: as am I ... just using the distro for my work over at #ubuntu-beginners and #fullcirclemagazine
[12:39] <onto1> Hi! Why do audacity/mplayer and a lot of other softwares depend on libav* in lubuntu? I needed a custom-compiled version and when I removed libav* it removed a lot of other softwares :\
[12:40] <onto1> and now when I have installed ffmpeg and libav* from source, I still cannot install audacity without replacing my compiled version with the repository version
[12:45] <melodie> hi
[12:46] <melodie> does someone know if the latest lxpanel in lubuntu raring has the menu which closes normally when you click somewhere else ? I noticed in precise it stays opened until I click again on the menu button : what do you think ?
[12:49] <DukePyrolator> hi, I can't find the option to change the default sound device. what package do I need to install?
[14:21] <melodie> DukePyrolator depending on what you use, alsa or pulseaudio
[14:22] <melodie> does someone know if the latest lxpanel in lubuntu raring has the menu which closes normally when you click somewhere else ? I noticed in precise it stays opened until I click again on the menu button : what do you think ?
[14:25] <zleap> any thoughts on using a different screen shot manager
[15:25] <zleap> hello
[15:48] <holstein> zleap: use what you want.. shouldnt be any problem
[15:48] <holstein> melodie: check #ubuntu+1 for 13.04 raring
[15:50] <holstein> melodie: i would ask in an lxde channel/list.. that is an lxpanel feature AFAIK, and is likely customizable somehow
[15:59] <melodie> holstein this one part is not customizable, but thanks
[15:59] <holstein> melodie: well, everything is open, and ultimately customizable.. but maybe not easily
[16:00] <melodie> holstein this is not a custom feature
[16:00] <melodie> it is customizable if it is a feature but this is not a feature - thanks anyway, i'll check the raring version asap
[16:00] <holstein> melodie: you can use whatever panel/menu you like.. or ultimately customize however you like
[16:01] <melodie> holstein I will then invite you to try : the menu does not close by itself at least in that one version
[16:01] <melodie> going now
[16:02] <holstein> melodie: what do i do? i use kupfer.. and the tint panel.. i dont use a traditional menu
[16:02] <holstein> melodie: that feature doesnt bother me
[16:02] <melodie> neither me but I am building for others who are end users
[16:03] <melodie> check lubuntu versions lxpanel menus ?
[16:03] <melodie> if you want to
[16:03] <holstein> melodie: i know what you are talking about.. i would probably just switch to a menu/panel that fits the needs more "out-of-the-box"
[16:28] <malaphus> Anyone know where lxpanel searches for icons for .desktop shortcuts (from /usr/share/applications)?  I created a new shortcut, Icon= is set to "myicon", and I have the png file in /usr/share/icons/hicolor/32x32/apps/myicon.png, but the icon isnt working
[16:36] <melodie> malaphus three places possible
[16:36] <melodie> in /usr/share/icons
[16:36] <malaphus> I also tried using the full path in the desktop shortcut, but that didn't work either
[16:37] <melodie> in /usr/share/pixmaps
[16:37] <melodie> in /home/you/.local/share/icons
[16:37] <malaphus> melodie: there aren't any image files directly in /usr/share/icons, only subdirectories
[16:37] <melodie> and you can also provide the full path to icon in the Icon= line
[16:37] <malaphus> melodie: tried that, didn't work
[16:37] <malaphus> Icon=/usr/share/icons/libreoffice/libreoffice4.0-writer.png
[16:37] <melodie> malaphus you can add a file or a symlink to an icon though
[16:38] <melodie> malaphus possible your menu has not refreshed: logout / login
[16:38] <malaphus> I've been logging out and back in
[16:38] <melodie> if that does not work check of you have the right path
[16:38] <melodie> that you have really put libreoffice under /usr/share/icons
[16:39] <melodie> and that you did not do a typo in the file name
[16:39] <malaphus> it works if I put the file directly in /usr/share/icons
[16:39] <malaphus> but now it's the only icon there, heh
[16:39] <melodie> malaphus you could also try the new qtlauncher on test at linuxvillage forum now
[16:39] <melodie> malaphus only icon there does not matter
[16:40] <melodie> else, look here: http://beta.linuxvillage.net/index.php/topic,234.new.html
[16:41] <malaphus> I do see in the screenshot on that post that they're using .svg files instead of png files with the full path
[16:42] <malaphus> full path to a png file definitely isn't working though
[17:18] <malaphus> I've created a new file, lxde-mytools.directory in /usr/share/desktop-directories, and added a stanza to the /etc/xdg/menus/lxde-applications.menu XML file for my new .directory, but that menu isn't showing up
[17:18] <malaphus> any ideas?
[17:51] <Precise-user> Test
[18:00] <malaphus> Anyone know where the theme or other settings resides for the lxde logout panel?
[18:01] <malaphus> (the window with Shutdown, Restart, Suspend, etc)
[18:59] <cerebrate> :X
[18:59] <cerebrate> 8X
[18:59] <cerebrate> :V phew
[21:30] <john123> hi all, just installed lununtu successfully, but I do not seem to have any desktop icons, and cannot send anything to the desktop.
[21:34] <john123> The error message states 'the specified location is not supported'
[23:48] <malaphus> Anyone know what config I would need to edit to change the logout action?
[23:48] <malaphus> (from the main menu)
[23:49] <Unit193> You mean /usr/bin/lubuntu-logout ?
[23:51] <malaphus> well, I guess I could change that one, but currently there are two ways to log out via the GUI it seems, a little power button on the bottom rigth corner in the panel, and a "Logout" action from the menu
[23:51] <malaphus> I don't mind the power button in the panel giving the window with the different options, but I'd prefer if the logout action from the main menu do something different
[23:52] <malaphus> such as just prompt the user "Are you sure?" via zenity or something, then immediately log them out
[23:52] <Unit193> /usr/share/lxpanel/profile/Lubuntu/config and /usr/share/lxpanel/profile/Lubuntu/panels/panel then.
[23:52] <malaphus> so I'd like to leave the power button as it is, and just point the main menu action to my own bash script or something, then figure out how to logout immediately
[23:52] <Unit193> (Or, it is configured in there.)
[23:53] <malaphus> alright, I'll look around in there, do you know what lxsession-logout (which lubuntu-logout calls) actually does when the user clicks the logout button?  I'd want to replicate that in my own script
[23:54] <malaphus> Not sure if I should just killall lxsession
[23:54] <malaphus> or if there is a more graceful way
[23:56] <Unit193> Hmmm....  Lets see.
[23:56] <malaphus> its compiled, so hard to tell quickly, I can go find the source if you don't already know, no biggie
[23:57] <Unit193> Heh, this one I don't happen to know offhand. :P
[23:57] <malaphus> You were on a roll too, ah well :)_
[23:59] <malaphus> these machines are all shared, so I just know if I keep the default lxsession-logout, people will be randomly shutting down the boxes instead of logging out, since Shutdown is the default option, heh
