| netrobyatmobile | Hello | 06:27 |
| netrobyatmobile | Any lubuntu developer online? | 06:27 |
| netrobyatmobile | Today lxterminal add very impressive feature, add setting options for default windows size | 06:27 |
| netrobyatmobile | https://github.com/lxde/lxterminal | 06:27 |
| netrobyatmobile | The commit here: https://github.com/lxde/lxterminal/commit/06509bc0e1b266aadd7e483e6edb1f559667295d | 06:28 |
| netrobyatmobile | is it possible to getting delivered to ubuntu deb repository? | 06:28 |
| ianorlin | um the git version would depend on the lubuntu daily ppa | 07:02 |
| ianorlin | I think this was techincally possible maybe before in openbox | 07:02 |
| ianorlin | netrobyatmobile: ^^ | 07:02 |
| netrobyatmobile | I am using lubuntu 15.10, and tested it . | 07:04 |
| netrobyatmobile | looks very well | 07:04 |
| Unit193 | Patches like that don't usually get backported, you'd have to wait for 1604 if the next lxterminal is released by then. | 07:07 |
| * netrobyatmobile I hate the linux worlds. slow software update period. :X | 07:09 | |
| Unit193 | Kind of crazy to backport all new git features/commits, though. | 07:10 |
| mohsen-rashidi | hi. new lubuntu user here. looking for layout switching applet | 16:01 |

| Langley | Help, I want to set VLC as default for mkv but it doesn't show up in neither the Open With list or the LXSession list thing | 18:00 |
| Langley | Oh wait now it actually does | 18:01 |
| Langley | Nevermind then! | 18:01 |
| Langley | What do I use for taking screenshots in lubuntu | 19:01 |
| leszek | Langley: scrot I would assume. Its a command line app basically saving into home by default | 19:04 |
| Scaniatrucker | Langley: You can use scrot | 19:04 |
| redwolf | usually the print screen key runs scrot | 19:06 |
| redwolf | and it leaves a picture in your home folder | 19:06 |
| Langley | That's kinda unituative... oh well thanks | 19:07 |
| wxl | well that's how windows works, Langley :) | 19:08 |
| Langley | What windows? | 19:08 |
| wxl | well windows xp anmd everything before it | 19:08 |
| Langley | Why are you bringing windows up when I am running linux | 19:09 |
| redwolf | as an example, I guess :) | 19:09 |
| wxl | i'm saying that the notion of using the print screen key to make a screenshot is not uncommon | 19:09 |
| wxl | so intuitive or not, it's fairly "normal" | 19:09 |
| wxl | what would you think intuitive would be? | 19:10 |
| Langley | An addition of a camera sound, flash, or some effect that doesn't require you to magically know something has happened | 19:11 |
| wxl | but how would you know print screen works to begin with? | 19:11 |
| Langley | From its name | 19:12 |
| wxl | ok so that's intuitive, you just need some sort of notification | 19:12 |
| wxl | we'll give it some consideration but i can't think of anything that does that except mobile devices | 19:12 |
| Langley | I've tried other distros that comes up with a Save As box | 19:13 |
| redwolf | that happens using gnome-screenshot, it opens a dialog. and it's not only Ubuntu-Gnome who uses it | 19:15 |
| redwolf | Lubuntu's solution is straight forward | 19:15 |
| wxl | actually looking at the scrot manpage, there's an option to prevent beepnig, which implies beeping is the default | 19:16 |
| Langley | Only if you knows it exists in the first place. Why not just pop a little "Screenshot saved to Home folder" notification box in the corner | 19:16 |
| redwolf | I think everybody knows the use of the prtscr key | 19:17 |
| redwolf | I still remember using it in MS-DOS | 19:17 |
| wxl | redwolf: can you confirm the beep? | 19:17 |
| redwolf | I have no beeper :D | 19:17 |
| wxl | redwolf: so scrot does not beep for you or you have no way to hear a beep? | 19:18 |
| redwolf | I think it can't | 19:18 |
| redwolf | I planned to do a modification, so you could hear a real camera sound while pressing the key | 19:18 |
| wxl | huh i don't hear it here | 19:18 |
| redwolf | I might post that "trick" to the blog | 19:18 |
| wxl | well that might be useful | 19:19 |
| wxl | Langley: watch the lubuntu blog for your solution XD | 19:19 |
| redwolf | but I didn't do yet! :D | 19:21 |
| Langley | Anyways for how long with 15.10 get security updates | 19:27 |
| wxl | should be listed in the release notes, Langley | 19:27 |
| mijowh | hello. why is it that in synaptics when i mark firefox for removal it wants to remove lubuntu-desktop? do i need lubuntu-desktop? | 19:42 |
| redwolf | because lubuntu-desktop is a metapackage that includes the browser too | 19:43 |
| mijowh | so its unnecessary? | 19:43 |
| redwolf | you don't really need it, just be careful when removing it, so other dependencies don't go away too | 19:43 |
| mijowh | thats what i thought but i dont want to break anything | 19:44 |
| redwolf | yes, you can keep the lubuntu-core and the additional apps and packages | 19:44 |
| redwolf | but I don't recommend removing it | 19:44 |
| mijowh | ok, thank you | 19:44 |
| mijowh | then how do i remove firefox | 19:44 |
| redwolf | you're welcome :) | 19:44 |
| redwolf | it's the only way, removing firefox will remove lubuntu-desktop too | 19:44 |
| redwolf | or you can simply keep it and add another one | 19:44 |
| mijowh | alright, thanks for clearing that up | 19:45 |
| redwolf | :) | 19:45 |
