Guest48239 | Hello all! | 15:49 |
---|---|---|
Guest48239 | I have a question about a weird menu I get at the bottom of my Ubuntu 15.10 screen | 15:50 |
Guest48239 | everytime a program starts, it adds an icon to this menu (I never saw it before I ugpraded) | 15:50 |
Guest48239 | it has little left and right arrows to open and close it | 15:50 |
JohnnyComeL8ly | This isn't the Ubuntu channel. | 15:51 |
JohnnyComeL8ly | Ubuntu GNOME is different. (Better, imo.) | 15:51 |
JohnnyComeL8ly | Guest48239: ^^^ | 15:52 |
Guest48239 | I am running Ubuntu GNOME | 15:59 |
Guest48239 | fuck unity! | 15:59 |
Guest48239 | So, back to my question... | 16:04 |
Guest48239 | I have a small grey menue with icons of ostensibly (some) of my running programs | 16:04 |
Guest48239 | it shows hexchat but not Terminal or Firefox | 16:04 |
Guest48239 | how do I extirpate this dumb menu? | 16:04 |
Guest48239 | I am running Ubuntu GNOME, I have a small grey menue with icons of some of my running programs (not all, Hexchat is there, Firefox and Terminal are not for example). I wish to extirpate this menue entirely from displaying. Does anyone have an idea of how I might do so? | 16:13 |
Guest48239 | does anyone even know what menue I am talking about or what its called? | 16:18 |

JohnnyComeL8ly | Guest48239, try right clicking on it. | 16:57 |
JohnnyComeL8ly | The menu, not the icons. | 16:58 |
JohnnyComeL8ly | Guest48239, honestly I don't know what menu you've gotten to appear down at the bottom of the screen. | 16:59 |
JohnnyComeL8ly | And please watch what you say. | 16:59 |
Guest48239 | does zero | 17:01 |
Guest48239 | what is the name of the menu or program generating it? | 17:01 |
Guest48239 | what is the menue called? | 17:01 |
Guest48239 | It is a gray menue with icons of some of the programs I am running | 17:01 |
Guest48239 | it is not a menue in the classical textual sense, it pops from left to right coming from the left and has only icons on it | 17:02 |
Guest48239 | when I move my cursor near it a small right arrow appears | 17:02 |
Guest48239 | when I click the arrow the menu pops out to the right | 17:02 |
JohnnyComeL8ly | Wait, do you access it from the top left corner? | 17:04 |
JohnnyComeL8ly | If so, that is supposed to be there. | 17:04 |

Guest48239 | someone else told me its called the message tray? | 17:06 |
JohnnyComeL8ly | Lemme switch OSs I'm in Xubuntu right now. | 17:06 |
Guest48239 | ok, thanks! | 17:14 |
Guest48239 | welcome back | 17:23 |
JohnnyComeL8ly | Thanks. | 17:23 |
Guest48239 | I started hexchat, and then I see that dumb menue down there or message tray or whatever it is | 17:23 |
Guest48239 | I want to get rid of it entirely or move it so it doesn't overwrite the first part of the prompt when I am using gnome-terminal and am at the bottom line of the screen | 17:24 |
Guest48239 | I am fine to remove it entirely actually | 17:24 |
JohnnyComeL8ly | I'm doing a qemu boot of Ubuntu GNOME... I was going to do a regulare boot, but I decided to just stay here. ;-) | 17:25 |
JohnnyComeL8ly | I think it might not work... :-( | 17:27 |
Guest48239 | oh | 17:27 |
Guest48239 | I use vmware usually for virtualized stuff usually. | 17:28 |
JohnnyComeL8ly | It wasn't working, I'm just going to switch. I've done a test for easy2boot using it, but I'm not sure why it isn't working for this. | 17:28 |
Guest48239 | I am using Ubuntu GNOME 15.10 | 17:29 |
JohnnyComeL8ly | I forgot to say, that I'm using Ubuntu GNOME 16.04 (development version of course). | 17:31 |
JohnnyComeL8ly | I was using Ubuntu GNOME 15.10 dev until it got released. | 17:31 |
JohnnyComeL8ly | Then I "upgraded" to Ubuntu GNOME 16.04 dev | 17:31 |
JohnnyComeL8ly | Guest48239, Just give me a few minutes, I've got a disk burning right now... | 17:32 |
Guest48239 | oh... | 17:32 |
JohnnyComeL8ly | Sorry. it is progressing quickly though. | 17:33 |
JohnnyComeL8ly | Guest48239, do you know how to switch your Nick? | 17:35 |
JohnnyComeL8ly | You could do something a little more personal than "Guest48239". | 17:36 |

Guest48239 | I am checking the extension now | 18:48 |
Guest48239 | That thing moves it, what tool must I use to remove it entirely? | 18:49 |

Guest48239 | I need to reboot | 19:11 |
Guest48239 | be right back | 19:11 |
johnjohn101 | when will 16.04 be on gnome 3.18? | 21:29 |
johnjohn101 | in the daily | 21:29 |
darkxst | johnjohn101, it is getting there, maybe 80% done | 21:40 |
johnjohn101 | darkxst: thanks. i'm enjoying 15.10 now. seems to do well on vmware player except for an occasional xorg exception | 21:41 |
darkxst | johnjohn101, fwiw vmware needs a workaround to run on a 15.10+ host atm | 21:42 |
johnjohn101 | will it be easier to port once unity moves to qt? | 21:43 |
darkxst | slightly easier | 21:44 |
