| CrazyTux | how is Ubuntu Mate 18.04 different from Mint Mate 19? | 17:42 |
|---|---|---|
| CrazyTux | do they have packages of different versions? | 17:43 |
| A|an | ubuntu mate 18.04...when I click on the trash icon at the lower right of the screen, to open trash, vlc starts trying to open in a spasm...does anyone know how to fix this? | 20:46 |
| sixwheeledbeast | Is this a "trash icon" in a panel? Maybe try resetting the panel. | 21:28 |
| A|an | no, it's the trash icon in the usual place, the lower right-hand corner... | 21:30 |
| A|an | evidently the problem has cropped up before....i found mention of it on ubuntuforums...but the proposed solution didn't work for me | 21:30 |
| A|an | https://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1759788 | 21:31 |
| A|an | interestingly, i have a second user account made and the problem doesn't exist for that account | 21:32 |
| A|an | you can open the trash folder from clicking the icon, no problem | 21:32 |
| A|an | with the first user account, vlc tries to open, but not successfully...it spasms" | 21:34 |
| A|an | with another window overlaying it...it's definitely a glitch somewhere | 21:34 |
| A|an | I guess I'll post the problem to ubuntuforums and see if anyone know what to do | 21:35 |
| sixwheeledbeast | I don't have anything on the desktop, so i wouldn't call it a "usual" thing. I would maybe try removing it and readding it with MATE Tweak. | 22:25 |
| sixwheeledbeast | Failing that try looking in your users config files or the default applications list? | 22:26 |
| A|an | Removing/replacing with Tweak sounded like a good idea and I do so...the replaced Trash icon is on the desktop proper, not in the very lower righthand corner,next to the four desktop spaces...placing the trash icon on that menu bar reinitiates the problem...vlc tries to open...so, I just left the large Trash icon on the desktop. Close enough! | 22:43 |
| A|an | do=did, geez...this is someone else's laptop, that I'm trying to get setup with nooo glitches | 22:44 |

| A|an | That's from my administrator account...the trash icon work fine. | 22:52 |
| A|an | But you can't use Tweak to place it to the very far right, next to the four desktop icons. | 22:52 |
| A|an | Like it is in the pic | 22:53 |
