Babloyinever mind, found it05:15
Unit193xfce4-taskmanager?05:15
Babloyiyeah, it was just called task manager05:16
Babloyiit just wasn't in the list of "Add to Panel" items05:16

hans_why does Xubuntu seemingly use lightdm over lxdm?07:03
hans_(some years ago back in debian 8 i compared lxdm vs lightdm, 34MB ram more than lxdm on amd64..)07:05
hans_(so despite the name `light`dm, lightdm is heavier than lxdm last time i checked)07:05
hans_- and lxdm is made specifically for xfce07:06
Unit193LXDE, actually.07:06
hans_oh, derp07:06
hans_ok guess that explains it07:06
Unit193In theory you can use LXDM with Xfce, but it's not as configurable nor polished.07:07
hans_speaking of configurable, how do i configure autologin on xubuntu?07:08
hans_nvm, slight variation of this worked :)  https://askubuntu.com/a/905298/46241307:11
Unit193Was gonna say, think it's something to do with adding yourself to a group and setting a config. :P07:13
hans_guess there's more than 1 way, i practically just copypasted from that answer into this file which i made up, /etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf.d/autologin.conf07:13
hans_(didn't add anyone to any group)07:14
pmjdebruijnbtw, on a sidenote, isn't lxde moving to Qt? which means GTK LXDM will probably go unmaintained soon enough07:14
hans_correct-ish, the gtk codebase will still be around under the old name, but the developers will move to a Qt-codebase and call it `lxqt`07:15
hans_iirc07:15
hans_qt will be a bit heavier than the gtk version tho...     and imo, the only thing they got going for them is "lxde is even lighter than xfce" - if that cease to be the case with lxqt then.. idk, i won't use it07:17
pmjdebruijnmy point being if focus shifts, nobody will care about the old lxdm codebase, most likely07:20
hans_true. there's just a few lxde core devs to begin with, and they're all hyped about lxqt, so lxde will probably be abandoned yeah07:21
pmjdebruijnso it's not a good horse to bet on anymore :)07:22
hans_> the PIXELdesktop environment of Raspbian (the official Raspberry Pi operating system) is a highly modified version of LXDE.07:29
hans_maybe that thing will live on tho07:29
Unit193pmjdebruijn: I thought LXDM specifically was already unmaintained.07:30
pmjdebruijnUnit193: quite possible :)07:34
pmjdebruijnhans_: do note that they are a bit more desparate for low resource consumption :)07:35
pmjdebruijn@rpi07:35
hans_yup07:35
Unit193pmjdebruijn: https://git.lxde.org/gitweb/?p=lxde/lxdm.git;a=shortlog yeah that's not looking so hot.07:35
hans_single commit for 201807:36
hans_weird, appears Lubuntu 18.04 is still lxde based07:50
hans_oh, Lubuntu is scheduled to switch in 18.1007:52
hans_(guess they didn't want so much relatively new & untested code in a LTS?)07:57
hans_hmm, weird, "find in this folder" button does nothing07:59
hans_i'm guessing this button is supposed to do something? https://i.imgur.com/5DPYTeB.png08:00
Babloyiisn't that the same as just typing the letters with the folder open? :D08:01
hans_dpm08:03
hans_don't think so08:03
