Jarred has already moved over and reformatted https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Lubuntu/Documentation/AlternateInstall from https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Lubuntu/DocumentationHelp#Alternate Install That is our template, we have to go back and alter the internal links when we've got everything moved over. Once that is done we have the extra task of setting up the redirects from the exisiting wiki area. So, not a big job then :P The reason I've been quiet on this is that I wanted absolute assurance that we were not having to do it twice. As Charles (cproffit) approved the header page and indeed made the header for it, and Connor has approved the 1st page that Jarred transferred over; we've been a green light to get on with it. Thanks guys. Regards, Phill. I have just had a quick look over it all and from what I can tell Zach has done a great job. I had a couple of links I fixed up (which I think I originally changed incorrectly) and I have fixed up the Contact Us link in the header so it points to the wiki contact us. I did look into making a separate help.ubuntu contact us page but then the sublinks and things got a bit messy. Please double and triple check it all and great work Zach. Regards, Jared Norris https://wiki.ubuntu.com/JaredNorris I'll certainly look it all over just one more time Jared, and thanks for the compliment Phill, you know it's not needed.

Hello, I would like to remove a few programs that are installed by default when installing from the lubuntu live-cd.

[Lubuntu-desktop] Panel bug
WARNING: If i am correct in the discovery of this bug it will make your panel disappear and force you to hard kill your system (unless you have Hot Keys setup to get to a terminal without panel!) So i think i have found a bug and here are the steps to reproduce: 1. Right click on panel and select, Add/Remove Panel Items 2. Select the, Panel Applets tab 3. Click on the double window iconfiy icon in bottom left corner of screen next to virtual desktops Again i state if i am correct in this than your panel should disappear and you will have to reboot system to get it back. I tried using Task Manager to get panel back but was unsuccessful. I did this in a installed environment, NOT in virtual box so i suggest maybe trying in virtual box if lubuntu is your only OS installed on system. -- God Bless ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~lubuntu-desktop Post to : lubuntu-desktop@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~lubuntu-desktop More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
