gleblancHi folks.  I'm having some trouble using the "network connections" under preferences.01:45
holsteinsorry to hear that.. let us know if a volunteer can assist01:45
gleblancI can use it to configure a static IP address, and it seems to take if I do a ifconfig eth0 down && ifconfig eth0 up01:45
holsteini usually reset the connections one way or another01:46
gleblancBut when I configure it to use DHCP, it still comes up with the last static IP I had configured01:46
holsteinthat could be happening on the router, though01:46
gleblancI'm not sure where this "network connections" applet stores it's data.  It doesn't seem to be in /etc/network01:47
Unit193gleblanc: /etc/NetworkManager/system-connections/01:47
gleblancThanks01:47
gleblancThat seems OK01:49
gleblancUnder [ipv4] it says method=auto01:51
* gleblanc decides to try it tomorrow when his brain is fresh01:54
jeniahello. how do I set lubuntu to use the "vertial window switcher" by default?02:06
holsteinnot familiar with the "vertial" window switcher.. .let me search that, and see.. though, if you havent, i would just search more generally upstream about how to add it to lxde02:07
jeniaholstein, no just use alt-shift-tab02:07
ianorlinjenia do you mean switching workspaces with control alt up and conftorl alt down?02:07
jenianono. I mean like the normal "alt-tab", when you press that how does it look?02:08
holsteini would just remap it..02:08
jenialike a horizontal list of icons in the middle of the screen02:08
ianorlinI don't really know how to change that02:08
holsteinyou can get in the openbox code if you need..02:08
jeniawhen I press alt-shift-tab i get a horizontal list. i'm surprized that its not the same for others02:09

talsamonhallo, how can I create a desktop-launcher on lubuntu-openbox (14.04) ?17:13
holsteintalsamon: you are using openbox? and you want a desktop icon?17:25
talsamonholstein, yes17:25
holsteinhttp://crunchbang.org/forums/viewtopic.php?id=1797717:25
holsteinhttp://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/37992/is-there-a-small-lightweight-application-to-have-desktop-icons-like-on-windows17:26
holsteinlook for information about adding desktop icons to openbox17:26
diffisPerhaps this too: http://askubuntu.com/questions/466395/how-can-i-create-a-quick-launcher-in-lubuntu   ?17:27
holsteinif you are using lubuntu/lxde17:27
talsamonholstein, sorry, can't find any useful information on the first two links, iDesktools are not in the repo17:33
holsteintalsamon: why not just use lubuntu?17:34
holsteintalsamon: you can create desktop icons easily on the desktop in lxde/lubuntu17:34
talsamonholstein, that means I have to install lxde17:35
holsteintalsamon: have you tried it?17:35
holsteintalsamon: im not sure what else you would implement that would facilitate a more "normal" desktop that would be light17:36
holsteinthere is lighter, for sure, but, there are compromises, such as the desktop icons17:36
holsteinlxde is a nice balance.. and works "out of the box" facilitating such features, while maintaining a "light-ness"17:36
holsteinotherwise, you can try #ubuntu or an upstream openbox channel/community17:37
holsteini would just implement what #! does, *if* i wanted desktop icons in openbox..17:37
talsamonok,thanks17:37
holsteinbut, when i want/need desktop icons, i just go ahead and use lxde17:37
