brainwash | phillw: right, but I am not familiar with lubuntu, so someone else needs to file it (someone who is affected by whatever issue related to suspend/hibernate) | 00:01 |
---|---|---|
phillw | I do not use suspend/hibernate it actually used to take more time than a re-start. | 00:03 |
brainwash | xscreensaver not locking instantly before suspend is reported already, but lubuntu removed xscreensaver and replaced it with a non working locking mechanism | 00:03 |
phillw | But, people are welcome to report a bug. | 00:03 |
phillw | brainwash: new bug number? | 00:04 |
brainwash | yeah, doing my best to hunt these bugs down :) | 00:04 |
brainwash | no, same number | 00:04 |
LuvLinuxOS | phillw: I hope to play a larger roll in helping out with the next release so please be patient with my lack of knowledge on the process.... I will get better | 00:20 |
phillw | LuvLinuxOS: patience is what we have, help for new people we also have... Remember one important thing: We were all beginners once. | 00:22 |
LuvLinuxOS | Thanks phillw!!! I feel bad because I have been using Linux for some time and never got involved in the production process! I hope I have something to offer to this worthy community and movement!!! | 00:24 |
LuvLinuxOS | Windows is being unseated and everyone should just get ready for the new rule of Linux!!! | 00:25 |
wxl | i wish | 00:26 |
LuvLinuxOS | look at the stats wxl!!! | 00:26 |
phillw | LuvLinuxOS: out of all the teams, you will find one that you feel best suited to help in, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Lubuntu/GettingInvolved has the list | 00:27 |
LuvLinuxOS | slowly but surely Linux is winning!!! | 00:27 |
wxl | i don't pay attention to stats. i pay attention to the real world. :) | 00:27 |
phillw | wxl: nor do I, but the world is changing. | 00:27 |
wxl | slowly | 00:28 |
wxl | there's all those mac fanboys tho | 00:28 |
LuvLinuxOS | Well in the real world wxl, when I first started using Linux there was no support. Now look at all the support even Microsoft!!! | 00:28 |
wxl | mayb e freebsd will take over | 00:28 |
LuvLinuxOS | and those mac fan boys are running a flavor of Linux too!!! | 00:29 |
wxl | that's true, but it's not a majority thing, LuvLinuxOS | 00:29 |
phillw | wxl: are we on the correct channel for this? | 00:29 |
wxl | /join #lubuntu-offtopic | 00:29 |
LuvLinuxOS | I personally think that Lubuntu might be the best distro on the market fast and powerful!!! | 00:29 |

Rexter | Hi, looking for a way to create a synlink to an executable script. | 18:27 |
adyzx | Rexter: symlink | 18:31 |
Rexter | adyzx; sinlink | 18:33 |
adyzx | Rexter: i'm sorry you mean a symbolic link right? | 18:34 |
Rexter | lol, yea, I'm creating the link on the desktop, | 18:35 |
Rexter | but the file I'm linking to is a shell script | 18:36 |
Rexter | the trouble is when you click on the symlink it doesn't know how to open it | 18:36 |
adyzx | a bash shell script..hmm. | 18:36 |
adyzx | Rexter: ok. can you briefly run through what you're expecting it to do? | 18:38 |
genii | Does the script itself have a shebang on the first line? | 18:39 |
adyzx | genii: thx, was thinking the same thing | 18:40 |
Rexter | well, when i double click on the original file, it gives me the opertunity to execute it. When I double click on the link, it tried to open it like a document or something. | 18:40 |
adyzx | Rexter: read this post: http://tinyurl.com/mfkxcq5 | 18:41 |
adyzx | Rexter: what OS your running? | 18:41 |
Rexter | Lubuntu 12.04 | 18:42 |
adyzx | Rexter: gotta run. good luck with that :) | 18:45 |
Rexter | genii; no #! | 18:46 |
genii | Thought so. | 18:47 |
Rexter | genii; do you have any thoughts on it? | 18:47 |
genii | Rexter: If you're normal shell is bash, try a shebang for that.eg: #!/bin/bash ...also consider renaming the script itself from name to name.sh so other apps have a hint what filetype it is | 18:49 |
Rexter | thanks genii, I'll try it out. | 18:50 |
adyzx | Rexter: i'm back. how's that coming along? | 18:51 |
genii | Rexter: Also see that it's executable bit is set | 18:51 |
Rexter | I actually think I may not have created the link correctly, as the icon is a question mark. | 18:53 |
adyzx | ah. | 18:54 |
adyzx | Rexter: is your icon on the desktop? | 18:54 |
Rexter | yes I did ln -s file /home/user/Desktop/file | 18:56 |
adyzx | genii: I think you helped Rexter with it huh. | 18:56 |
genii | Rexter: You should use full path for the target | 18:57 |
adyzx | Rexter: your bash script works fine in terminal, yes? | 18:57 |
genii | Because if you did: ls -l /home/user/Desktop/file it will just point to "file" that it thinks is in the same directory the symlink resides in | 18:58 |
adyzx | genii: no relative pathing then right? | 19:02 |
genii | adyzx: If "file" is in /home/user you could do: ln -s ../file Desktop/symlinkname ( if your current working directory is also /home/user ) ..but it's better to use full pathnames | 19:03 |
Rexter | adyzx; yes it works both with the sh command in terminal | 19:04 |
Rexter | and if you double click it | 19:05 |
adyzx | Rexter: so the issue is pathing on your symlink like genii mentioned | 19:05 |
Rexter | I'll try full paths | 19:07 |
genii | Rexter: You're best to rm the current symlink in Desktop, and then do more like: ln -s /home/your-username/scriptname /home/your-username/Desktop/symlinkname | 19:07 |
adyzx | genii: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Symbolic_link both absolute and relative paths should work though right? | 19:08 |
genii | The advantage to full pathnames is that if you ever move the symlink somewhere else it still works | 19:08 |
adyzx | genii: this is true. | 19:08 |
adyzx | Rexter: I'm curious to know if genii suggestion solves your issue. | 19:10 |
Rexter | not yet, kid is hungry | 19:15 |
Rexter | Yea, that did it. it works now. Let me explain what I did wrong... | 19:19 |
Rexter | the script was in /home/user/folder | 19:19 |
Rexter | I opener a terminal at /home/user/folder | 19:20 |
Rexter | then I did ln -s script /home/user/Desktop/script | 19:20 |
Rexter | this time i just opened a terminal without regard to where I was, and did ln -s /home/user/folder/script /home/user/desktop/script | 19:21 |
Rexter | ok next question, is there a way to change the icon on this link? | 19:23 |
adyzx | Rexter: i see. it wasn't linking to the script initially on your first run. | 19:23 |
adyzx | glad it works now. | 19:23 |
adyzx | Rexter: what's the default icon? | 19:24 |
Rexter | It's a leafpad icon | 19:25 |
Rexter | just like the file it links to. | 19:25 |
adyzx | Rexter: what type of icon you looking to have instead? | 19:25 |
Rexter | I just want to choose a custome icon. nautilus provides easy choosing of the icons, I just don't know how to di it in Openbox. | 19:27 |
adyzx | Rexter: I take it you're runnning xfce as your windows manager? | 19:30 |
adyzx | nevermind openbox. | 19:31 |
adyzx | Rexter: so your using LXDE as desktop environment | 19:33 |
Rexter | yes | 19:33 |
adyzx | and Openbox is your windows manager? | 19:33 |
Rexter | I'm pretty sure. I didn't change it | 19:34 |
adyzx | Rexter: http://tinyurl.com/mzm6x9n | 19:38 |
adyzx | hope that helps | 19:39 |
Rexter | when i open it with leafpad, loads the script in leafpad. No icon-iconname | 19:47 |
Rexter | Do you think I should add that line? | 19:49 |
adyzx | well no. | 19:49 |
adyzx | because you will be just adding it to the script. | 19:49 |
adyzx | hmmm.. | 19:49 |
Rexter | well the icon seems to match the script, so if i change that one, shouldn't it be the same? | 19:54 |
adyzx | its worh a shot. | 19:54 |
Rexter | is .png the best format for an icon? | 19:57 |
adyzx | Rexter: yes. but i think thats about as far | 19:57 |
adyzx | as your customization is going to go with symlink | 19:57 |
adyzx | I was thinking of creating a customized .desktop file | 19:58 |
adyzx | for your bash script which is basically a launhcer. | 19:58 |
adyzx | err launcher. | 19:58 |
adyzx | try googling .desktop launcher for bash script in LXDE or something | 19:59 |
Rexter | isn't that for autostart? | 19:59 |
adyzx | yes. i was thinking the same | 19:59 |
adyzx | you want it on your desktop. | 19:59 |
adyzx | hmmm. | 20:00 |
adyzx | I don't know if openbox has the support for this. | 20:00 |
adyzx | but it's worth investigating | 20:00 |
Rexter | I know how to autostart. You just ad the .desktop file to ~/.config/autostart | 20:07 |
Rexter | I only need this to run when you tell it to. That's why I it on the desktop. | 20:08 |
Rexter | adyzx; I'll ask around in the Openbox channel. Adding icon= to the script didn't change anything. | 20:26 |
ozbrk | how an I organize the icons on my desktop automaticly | 21:38 |
zleap | right click - sort files | 21:39 |
zleap | i would guess it should remember the selection e.g by date | 21:39 |
ozbrk | ok problem sloved | 21:39 |
zleap | :) | 21:40 |
ozbrk | select all of the icons - right click - organize (in Turkish it's called ''Sıraya Uydur'' but I don't know what does it call in Eng | 21:40 |
zleap | mine has snap to grid | 21:41 |
ozbrk | it should be | 21:41 |
