Re: [Lubuntu-desktop] gtk3
If you want to share images with us, please could be you be kind and use IMAGE HOSTING SERVICES and just paste url to the image. This is mailing-list, not your personal email exchange with your family and friends. 2011/6/2 神癒礁湖 (Rafael Laguna) rafaellag...@gmail.com Hiya, guys and girls: The Ozone theme (now called Ozone2, very original :| ) is working, more or less, on a GTK3 environment. Sorry for the screenshot, it's made using Unity2D (LXDE doesn't have been ported yet so it can't make use of the new libraries) and Openbox (exotic combination :D ). Anyway, this screenshot means that we're in the right way, but theme may sure differ a lot from this (that's my intention, repeating is boring). PCManFM (gtk2) is on the left, and Nautilus (gtk3) on the right. Would like to see PCManFM gtk3 from GIT working. Another question. Any of you have noticed a bug on the Gnome-MPlayer icon? I mean, it may show hard-edged with sharp contours. Thank you. http://lubuntublog.blogspot.com/ http://www.lubuntu.net/ ___ 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 ___ 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
[Lubuntu-desktop] X session crash when changing desktop background
Hi, There doesn't seem to be a link to report bugs at https://bugs.launchpad.net/~lubuntu-desktop so I'm posting this here. The X session crashes if you try to change the desktop background to the background colour. This happens for me both after booting a Lubuntu 11.04 CD on an old Celeron 2.5GHz PC, and in a VirtualBox VM on a more modern machine after installing Lubuntu. To reproduce the problem: - Boot system - Right-click over the desktop. Select Desktop Preferences. - Change Wallpaper mode to Fill with background colour only. - The X session crashes/exits, dumping you back at the login screen. After logging in again, the desktop background is unchanged (remaining an image, not the background colour). -- Mark ___ 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
[Lubuntu-desktop] The need to improve Lubuntu bug filing
First a brief intro. I'm Erick Brunzell at Launchpad, Lance at iso-testing (in which I've participated for over 3 years), and kansasnoob at Ubuntu forums. I'm quite glad to see that Lubuntu will soon become an official member of the Ubuntu family. I particularly look forward to the day that Lubuntu's images are included in Ubuntu's iso-testing. Anyway I obtained the Lubuntu Oneiric Alpha1 image here: http://people.ubuntu.com/~gilir/ And naturally I encountered a few minor bugs. To expect any less this early in a dev cycle is insane, but I still felt they should be reported. The specific bugs are: 1) The Lubuntu Alpha1 Live CD boots to a tty, so you have to type startx to get the DE. 2) The default DE lacks restart or shutdown buttons. 3) Upon completing the installation I was asked whether to restart or keep using the Live DE as usual. I chose to restart and the CD ejected as expected but the screen was just blank. So I removed the CD, closed the tray and hit enter, but nothing happened. I tried some common key combos but finally had to use the reset button on my box to complete the restart. Of course none of these are serious or unexpected this early in a dev cycle, but I wanted to get my feet wet checking out bug filing against Lubuntu anyway, and I'm a bit puzzled. I'm used to iso-testing pure Ubuntu so all of the above bugs would be filed against 'casper' but I know these bugs were not present when I tested Ubuntu so I thought I should possibly file them against the meta-package 'lubuntu-desktop' but that's a no-go. I'm just wondering if the meta-package 'lubuntu-desktop' should be added to launchpad as a bug filing option? I'm very impressed with the Lubuntu project and I hope my iso-testing skills may be helpful at some point, but I have no development skills. I'm just a tester. Apologies in advance if I was wrong posting in this manner.

Re: [Lubuntu-desktop] The need to improve Lubuntu bug filing
hiyas kansasnoob, firstly, great to see you - I don't get onto the forum areas as much as I used to (or should do). The A1 is still built the 'old way' and is, afaik, just a toe stretching session for the new kernel to be included. There has been some work the apps done, along with deciding which applications we include by default. Pcman has a new pcmanfm out in the wild for us to break. Hooks for apport are on the TODO list and are being added, but the 1,000 dedicated developers we have . err, well, I may have over estimated by 998 are awaiting getting their teeth into the 'official' iso building system. This should be done for a2. The general page for 11.10 is at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Lubuntu/Developers Progress on the apport hooks can be found at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Lubuntu/Developers/TODO If you, or any of the testers on the main area would like to keep abreast of what Lubuntu is up to, please doe feel free to add the mailing list to your cluttered boxes (We don't send that many out!) https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Lubuntu/GettingInvolved has the one click link to get the lubuntu discussions. Please give my regards to Ranch Hand, I must pop on and find out what better name he has for 11.10 - I will make a point of letting the testing area know when A2 comes out, but the a1 had little in the way of changes. Apart from anything else, it will be nice to 'touch base' with all you great people again. For A2, I will try to get a set of notes together so you good people know where Lubuntu is headed for 11.10, as it is the precursor for 12.04 (LTS) we need to get as many bugs ironed out as possible during the 11.10 cycle (errr, you may recall Grub2 coming out in 9.10 :P ). Lubuntu is also now popping it's toe into the water for accessibility, but realistically this is a couple of cycles away - we simply do not have enough devs. Accessibility could do themselves a favour, but we do have a meeting coming up under Jono Bacon to allow us to ask questions. It is times like this I miss Ranch Hand's 'say it as it is' attitude, although JM one of our devs is no shrinking violet. I'm sure he and Ranch Hand would get on great :P My kindest regards to you and the rest of the testers, Phill. P.S. - Now go and dig me up a spare developer or two :D @ Julien and JM - if there is any thing factually incorrect, please correct me.

[Lubuntu-desktop] Help pages
Hi julien, As we progress towards 11.10, the two 'help areas' for documentation are becoming impossible to keep in synch. I know you did ask if we could manually divert every single page from https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Lubuntu/DocumentationHelp to https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Lubuntu and initially I thought that it was not a major undertaking. I was wrong. I'd rather we take a slight hit with a general divert from the DocumentationHelp go straight to the 'new' area, sooner rather than later. There will be a notification on the old area, I need to check if setting up a 'section' divert is possible. Regardless of that, we need to have the docs on the community section and off the lubuntu dev section. The down side? Old Bookmarks will be invalid. The up side? We comply fully with best practices. There is a summer of wiki coming up, and I have been told that as a part of it, we can have eager volunteers crawl over every page and inform us / correct any missing links. One of the few perks of being a wiki admin person, if they need one for a task on any page / area I have agreed to help. As a wiki admin, I will ensure, and sworn to do, that there are backups held of any and every page deleted both locally on my computer and on my server (the one who holds the iso's). With all that is going on, and the recent push to check the 'new' area, I do feel that it is time to get this 'little' step done so that everyone knows which page(s) to update. @ everyone As per a wedding speak now, or forever hold your peace. The initial transfer done by Zach was amazing, now we just need to finish it off.

Re: [Lubuntu-desktop] The need to improve Lubuntu bug filing
Hello Lance, I haven't run oneiric yet, but I think the missing of shutdown/restart buttons is due to not having GTK3 icons for that. We're hard at work in creating the new themes for oneiric, which should be GTK3 ready. And just pressing enter/return didn't do the trick on getting along with the installer (bug 3)? Welcome to the crew by the way.

Re: [Lubuntu-desktop] Help pages
Some pages have been renamed, the structure - especially for GetLubuntu and TestLubuntu has really changed! The addition of FAQ etc. As with Dev, we either divert resources (which we do not have) to a wonderfully smooth Apple Mac type transition, or we just get on with it and make sure the bloody thing works... something that can be missed by these larger corporations ;) As for So a bulk edit of all those pages yeah, we have to find them 1st. Hence my asking that ALL pages under the old DocumentHelp get the divert. (Assuming this is possible, they've been updating the wiki systems). regards, Phill.
