| VampiricPadraig | I have a Mac Mini 7,1 (Late 2014) and macOS is sluggish on it. Has anyone got Xubuntu (or any distro) working on it? | 13:42 |
|---|---|---|
| xubuntu5w | Sometimes multiple nm-applet icons appear | 15:20 |
| xubuntu5w | Normally one in the Status Notifier plugin but sometimes also in the Notification area (systray). Likewise for the Redshift app icon | 15:21 |
| xubuntu5w | How can I prevent this from happening? | 15:22 |
| xubuntu5w | I am using Xubuntu 18.04.3 | 15:22 |
| xubuntu5w | See also https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/lubuntu-default-settings/+bug/1761606 | 15:23 |
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 1761606 in ubuntu-mate-settings (Ubuntu) "Two Wi-Fi network applets appear after logging back into live-usb Lubuntu 18.04 session." [Undecided,Confirmed] | 15:23 |
| brainwash | xubuntu5w: I think it's fixed in Xfce 4.14 | 15:23 |
| xubuntu5w | Ok, hopefully | 15:24 |
| xubuntu5w | Was it an xfce 4.12 bug? | 15:24 |
| brainwash | pretty much | 15:25 |
| brainwash | the session startup was rewritten in 4.14 | 15:25 |
| brainwash | and that fixed the multiple tray icons bug (when I tested it) | 15:26 |
| xubuntu5w | Is there no workaround? What are the consequences of removing the Notification area (systray) applet? | 15:27 |
| xubuntu5w | since we have the Satus Notifier plugin is the Notification area (systray) still needed? | 15:28 |
| brainwash | not all applications support the new status notifier protocol yet | 15:28 |
| xubuntu5w | Can you name a few? Task manager? | 15:29 |
| brainwash | dunno really | 15:30 |
| brainwash | I have both plugins, so I can't tell | 15:30 |
| brainwash | a workaround could be to create a new autostart launcher for nm-applet. this new launcher would start the applet after a small delay. | 15:31 |
| brainwash | Exec=sh -c 'sleep 5; nm-applet' | 15:32 |
| brainwash | something like that | 15:32 |
| xubuntu5w | In the past I had problems with the dropbox icon, a delay solved itit | 15:33 |
| brainwash | basically, the problem is that autostart launchers are started before the Xfce session components | 15:34 |
| brainwash | including the panel with its tray plugins | 15:34 |
| brainwash | Xfce 4.14 corrects that | 15:35 |
| xubuntu5w | I removed the delay and now the dropbox icon is present in the Status Notifier and not in the Notification area anymore | 15:35 |
| xubuntu5w | Do you also have an explanation for that? | 15:37 |
| xubuntu5w | Anyway thanks for your help! | 15:38 |
| brainwash | the explanation for most cases is: race condition | 15:38 |
| brainwash | it makes a difference if something is started before or after the panel is fully loaded | 15:39 |
| xubuntu5w | As long as things are properly fixed in xfce 4.14 I am happy | 15:41 |
| xubuntu5w | I am looking for a nice theme and icon set that work out-of-the-box for xubuntu, any tips? | 15:45 |
| brainwash | no tips other than you may need to look for a different theme when using Xfce 4.14 (Xubuntu 20.04) | 15:52 |
| brainwash | which is based on GTK3 | 15:52 |
| xubuntu5w | 4.12 isn't? | 15:54 |
| brainwash | no | 15:54 |
| brainwash | check out the screenshot threads https://forum.xfce.org/viewforum.php?id=9 | 15:54 |
| brainwash | I assume that hardly any of the themes and icons will be available ootb though | 15:56 |
| xubuntu5w | ok | 15:56 |
| xubuntu5w | that sucks | 15:56 |
| xubuntu5w | I am currently using elementary-xfce-dark, but is noticed the the nm-device-wired-secure.png file is missing in the /usr/share/icons/elementary-xfce-dark/panel/22 directory | 16:03 |
| xubuntu5w | I noticed* | 16:04 |
| xubuntu5w | I noticed that* | 16:04 |
| xubuntu5w | So the png file in the /usr/share/icons/hicolor/22x22/apps directory is used instead | 16:06 |
| brainwash | I think I've seen a bug report for that | 16:08 |
| brainwash | bug 1796183 | 16:10 |
| ubottu | bug 1796183 in xubuntu-artwork (Ubuntu) "vpn indicator icon is not appearing" [Undecided,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1796183 | 16:10 |
| xubuntu5w | brainwash: Thx | 16:32 |
