[03:43] <glitchd> is there a known issue with xubuntu-desktop in 18.04?
[03:43] <glitchd> i installed ubuntu 18.04.1 then installed xubuntu-desktop, but after loggin in, it just sits at the splash screen, i do however have access to the right click menu
[10:22] <pragomer> I really would love to install dockbarx in xubuntu 18.04 but it seems as this woulnt be possible easily for a newbie, right? any tips?
[10:24] <knome> there's a PPA for dockbarx... https://launchpad.net/~xuzhen666/+archive/ubuntu/dockbarx?field.series_filter=bionic
[10:25] <pragomer> oh, I will try this instant
[10:25] <knome> and i shouldn't have to say, but use PPA's at your own risk..
[10:28] <pragomer> thats clear.. its just.. i think xfce should offer such an "icon only taskbar" itself.
[10:28] <knome> it does...
[10:28] <knome> edit the window buttons applet properties
[10:28] <knome> uncheck "show button labels"
[10:29] <pragomer> yes, this its whats NEARLY to that, but you have still two icons: the starter and the icon of the opened window. In my opinion xfce is just the perfect DE, except from that
[10:29] <pragomer> you know what I mean? or do I overview something?
[10:30] <knome> you mean you'd like to have the launcher icons act as window icons as well? sure, i get that.
[10:30] <knome> and no, i don't think that's possible with the core xfce panel components
[10:30] <pragomer> yes, exactly that.. like (god beware) windows, but also KDE, Gnome, etc.
[10:31] <pragomer> no it isnt, but I would be very cool
[10:31] <knome> i use shortcut keys for most of my apps, the right-click menu on desktop serves the application menu for the rest
[10:31] <pragomer> this ppa does only contain the standalone dockbarx I think , not the xfce panel addon, right?
[10:32] <knome> looks like it
[10:34] <pragomer> no big deal, but I would be a nice to have under xfce
