YetAnotherStupidhello09:07
YetAnotherStupidI'm struggling to change the Xubuntu behavior so it automatically runs autorun scripts when i mount removable drives09:07
YetAnotherStupidfor example on Ubuntu it will ask me if I want to run the autorun scripts on my USB drive09:09
YetAnotherStupidhere in Xubuntu I've checked everything, browsed all configuration pages and... nothing09:09
YetAnotherStupidit'll ignore all autorun scripts09:09
YetAnotherStupidi have to go into the terminal and run them manually every time09:10
YetAnotherStupidreally? nobody?09:27

p00l3Hello. I have orage clock in panel and i want to make it transparent since my panel is half transparent but this clock having still grey background.10:50
MarkYisriHello, is anyone online here?10:51
knomep00l3, try one of the other plugins (they can/will open orage too), namely "Clock" or "DateTime" (you'll need to install xfce4-datetime-plugin to get this)12:11
Unit193Though I believe at this point they are functionally the same.12:12
knomeDateTime gives you a bit more formatting options12:13
knomeand Clock otoh allows you to use an analog clock etc...12:13
knomebut yes, they are very close to each other12:13
Unit193Waiting for one of them to pick up the gsimple cal feature, you can configure it so when you click it you get more than one timezone in the dropdown.12:14
