2010/12/28 Kendall Weaver kend...@astralnine.com: Just for the sake of reference, I've built Dropbox packages for this very reason. There will be additional work coming in the near future, but Linux Mint and Peppermint have full Dropbox integration now. The final packages should be available within a week or so, the current versions are available in the Peppermint repo and will be merged to the Linux Mint repo within the next couple of weeks. Kendall Good to know, I'll propably have a look at them also :) Do you have a link for thoses packages ? Thanks.

What we would like is it to install with out Nautilus and to use pcmanfm in a nice easy manner, with out having to edit config files.

Almost seems like there is a need for genuflections by others who are historically earlier on the list. A sort of pecking order, so to speak. Laughable in a linux culture. And yes, more than a few here need to understand sudo, apt-get and aptitude better rather than accusing others of not understanding them so as to act condescending and haughty. I was asked to refer some 4 web pages and after wasting my frigging time doing that, found out the OP did not really understand sudo and all that he really wants was to appear high and mighty. And I guess that's the only environment in which they can contribute. But having said that, I suppose there will be people like that in every list, and to let some asses, who are not developers BTW, subvert what could be a good system, is defeatist and counter productive, not to mention unlinuxlike.

Thanks Mike Steve, I really do think it is one for advanced users https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Lubuntu/Documentation#Advanced%20users in the wiki area, as we are commited to keep lubuntu lean, mean, keen and green. But as always, we are demorocacy (provided we accept what Julien and Mark say :P ). As ever, your thoughts are appreciated, if the devs can incorporate it, fine. but we do really have a spec of computer that we must maintain. What happened to Xubuntu should not happen to Lubuntu.

Re: [Lubuntu-desktop] drop box
Andy, the problem is adding on a background task, that is why by default Lubuntu has auto update turned off. to have a programme accepted into lubuntu it must use no disk space, neither can it use any CPU or RAM when it runs, other than those rules, we're quite laid back I have no problem whatsoever adding instructions to install it, the part it must NOT break our CPU / RAM requirement. as it is only an option that people 'may' adopt I see little point in proposing it for inclusion on the install iso but will be more than happy to add it to the help page and tell both DragonEyes about it and updating the ubuntu bot database and wiki areas.

I could bash out an install script if following some exact commands on a website is too hard. The commands are clear and consise. All you have to do is copy and paste. It's no different to being a novice chef. Your cookery skills will be minimal but you can follow a recipe with a method by a trained chef.

But as always, we are demorocacy (provided we accept what Julien and Mark say :P ). As ever, your thoughts are appreciated, if the devs can incorporate it, fine. but we do really have a spec of computer that we must maintain. What happened to Xubuntu should not happen to Lubuntu.
