loptaDoes Xubuntu boot faster than (Gnome) Ubuntu?18:05
geniiThey all boot about the same18:06
loptaHmm... perhaps there's something wrong with the PC I'm testing then.18:07
geniiAs far as how long it takes to get to the login screen. The differences then start with the desktop manager and desktop environment afterwards18:08
geniiAll *buntu variations will bog during boot if it hangs on something, like network is not working, etc18:09
loptaAh, that's fair enough then.18:16
D-melanogasterwhat the default keyboard shortcut to open terminal of active window?18:40
diogenes_D-melanogaster, right click on the empty space and "open in terminal"18:42
D-melanogasterif there is no empty space?18:42
D-melanogastershortcut doesn't exist?18:43
diogenes_not that i know of18:45
diogenes_and i haven't seen one in other DEs18:45
D-melanogasterdamn18:46
D-melanogasterit's quite uncomfortable don't you think?18:48
diogenes_D-melanogaster, what exactly is uncomfortable?18:48
D-melanogastershortcut for this option18:49
diogenes_for my case i don't see any problem there but if you want you can loon into nautilus terminal plugin so it show you a little terminal window in any directory you go to.18:50
diogenes_s/loon/look*18:50
D-melanogasterhm, this is a case, thanks18:52
diogenes_yw18:52
SpassD-melanogaster, I have a shortcut for that action (F4 in my case), but you need to set it yourself in Thunar menu Edit -> Actions19:42
Spassand then choose Open in terminal and edit that action, you can add your shortcut there19:42
Spass(if you have two "Open in terminal" actions on your list add a shortcut for both of them)19:43
Spassat least that's what I have on 18.1019:45
Spassbut if you're on 18.04 there are other ways to add that shortcut19:45
D-melanogasterSpass: At the Thunar menu Edit -> Actions no fields for adding a shortcut combination. Actually I can open a terminal by using Ctrl+Alt+T but it always starts with ~ directory no matter what directory opened in Thunar20:08
SpassD-melanogaster, what Xubuntu version do you use? you can try this - in Appearance preferences, Settings tab, enable editable accelerators20:10
Spassthen open Thunar, open File menu, hover on Open in terminal and press F4 (for example)20:11
Spassand see if that works20:11
SpassI think I did it like this on 18.04 some time ago20:12
D-melanogasterSpass: When I can check it? I just realized uname -a doesn't display it :/20:16
D-melanogasterI mean version20:16
D-melanogasterI think 18.0420:16
Spasstry "lsb_release -a"20:17
D-melanogasteryea 18.0420:17
D-melanogasterWooo20:19
D-melanogasterSpass: it works20:19
Spassnice, and one more thing before you disable that editable accelerators20:20
D-melanogasterSuch a horrible manipulations for that small thing20:20
Spassyou should do that shortcut edit when you have clicked a normal file and a directory, as both actions are slightly different20:20
Spassbut both are named "Open in terminal"20:21
Spass(I think you can set the same shortcut for both)20:21
Spassand yeah, I recommend having that editable accelerators disabled after the change, to not mess things up by mistake someday :)20:22
Spassone single cat on a keyboard could cause a real shortcut disaster20:23
D-melanogasterSpass: Yeah Thanks a lot dude. Is this accelerating think sensible just for keyboard or mouse buttons too?20:25
SpassI think just keyboard20:26
Spassbut you can check20:27
D-melanogasterNo it doesn't (a have a lot of mouse buttons). Anyway now I know how to ruin ubuntu machines :D20:30
Spassplease, don't ruin Xubuntu machines :)20:31
D-melanogasterXubuntu - never, but I am not sure about ubuntu)20:33
BloqueNegrohi together :)20:46
BloqueNegroi just found a keyboard layout 'eurkey' which works perfectly for me20:46
BloqueNegrohowever, i can only set it via setxkbmap eu20:47
BloqueNegrowhich will be reset after reboot20:47
BloqueNegroi can NOT select it from sudo dpkg-reconfigure keyboard-configuration20:47
BloqueNegroany idea or hint how to set eurkey permanently?20:47
brainwashBloqueNegro: add it to the autostart apps20:58
brainwashthe setxkbmap command20:58
brainwashxfce settings manager > session and startup > application autostart21:00
BloqueNegrouh, sounds kinda dirty... but ok^^21:09
brainwashBloqueNegro: how is that dirty?21:26
brainwashBloqueNegro: tried to change it via settings manager > keyboard?21:30
BloqueNegrobrainwash: i did21:37
BloqueNegrohowever the keuboard manager seems to pull the data from the same source as keyboard-configuration21:38
BloqueNegroand setting it once there has the risk that it may be overwritten during the os phase without me really knowing it21:38
