Re: [Lubuntu-desktop] Post A3 Test: Encrypted home folder

In terms of encrypted home folders, for Ubuntu in general it was not a wise move to offer it on install, we have access to such systems if we need - but there are cries of help, periodically, on the support forums for those who have "messed up" and lost everything. IMHO, leave them well alone Phi

Re: [Lubuntu-desktop] Power management issue

Another thing I'd remove is the command install suggestions from the bash. I think it's an standalone package and freezes CPU a lot. <>___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~lubuntu-desktop Post to : lubuntu-desktop@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscrib

[Lubuntu-desktop] Power management issue

Hello, all Though it is not only lubuntu related I've experienced different problems with gnome-power-manager on my netbook since 9.04 release. And even in lucid A3 i need to killall gnome-power-manager and use xfce4-power-manager instead. Even new version of xfpm that I've just tested (0.9.90)

Re: [Lubuntu-desktop] PCManFM 2 Trash/Files and other Bugs

1. files not refreshing bug seems to be a glib/gio bug. We do not use gamin or fam anymore. Instead, we use gio, which in turns uses inotify directly.

Re: [Lubuntu-desktop] Post A3 Test: Encrypted home folder

Hi, did anyone test the Alpha 3 with encrypted home folder ? On my virtual installation it isn't decrypting my home folder. I need to do this manually on a tty. I think it might be a bug in lxdm. ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~lubuntu-desk
