[Lubuntu-desktop] Problems about lxdm
I haven't got the time to test beta 1. However, there is an issue of lxdm. Lxdm by default drop existing environment and force the use of PATH=/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin. This really causes some breakage. I discussed wtih author of lxdm and he told me environment variable should be set in /etc/profile and it will be set properly by shell login. However, after startlxde, my $PATH doesn't seem to be properly set and it's still the default value /usr/local/bin:/usr/bin. This makes many programs broken. Is this issue solved in Lubuntu? ___ 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

Thanks for the tests. Le vendredi 19 mars 2010 à 23:41 +0300, Mike Nokel a écrit : So, I have tried livecd. There is huge improvement since last alpha. Thank you. But I have noticed following bugs: 1) when I launch screensaver (from parameters) I see again annoying error telling me that there is no directory /usr/share/backgrounds. May be create this directory by default? See https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xscreensaver/+bug/129769 2) I have noticed one way to crash pcmanfm2. I have gone to Go-Network and after it showed me my network, I have pressed it. And pcmanfm2 crashes. Thanks, reported on the pcmanfm2 testing page. If you can produce a backstrace, it will be usefull for upstream. 3) Also there is no terminal emulator by default (that is specified in preferences). May be it should be? Yes, reported on pcmanfm2 testing page. 4) When I marked to show WM menu (going to parameters of my desktop) it was very difficult for me to return to parameters of my desktop. After few minutes of trying to find the solution, I go to terminal and type pcmanfm2 --desktop-pref and it appears. May be this window should be able to appear under Desktop Settings in WM menu? Fixed.

Thanks for the tests.

Reported on the pcmanfm2 testing page. Same for all crash, if you can produce a backstrace, it will help upstream to fix it.

Thanks for the tests. Le vendredi 19 mars 2010 à 22:39 +0100, Leszek Lesner a écrit : Hi, I tested the first beta and I am pretty impressed. I tested it on real hardware booting from liveusb stick. It was amazingly fast. Only a few seconds to boot. This is really a record for linux systems. PCManFM2 seems to work fine. I only encounterd some minor bugs. 1. No default Terminal emulator is set in PCManFM2. We should set this to lxterminal Reported on the pcmanfm2 testing page. 2. Ejecting USB Sticks from within PCManFM2 does not seem to work. (Tested with 3 SanDisk U3 Sticks, they have 2 partitions 1 FAT32 Data, and a virtual CD-ROM drive partition. I only mounted the FAT32 Data partition, though pcmanfm2 asked me to mount both.) Any terminal output if you launch pcmanfm in a terminal and try to mount/ejecting the usb stick ? 3. The dialog to open a newly inserted media shows up on the virtual desktop where there is a opened filemanager. Trying to switch to desktop inserting usb stick results that it automatically switches to desktop 1 and shows the media dialog there. (I think its a bug, cause its annoying and killing my workflow, as if you choose to open up the newly insert media it won't show up in the opened filemanager window, but opens up a second window. So it absolutely does not make sense to switch the desktop to show the dialog.) 4. Copying Linked folders(symlink to folder, that contains files) in pcmanfm2 should copy them as symlinks and not as files I think. Reported on the pcmanfm2 testing page.

Re: [Lubuntu-desktop] Problems about lxdm
The environnement variables should be set in /etc/environment according to https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EnvironmentVariables for Ubuntu system. However, the PATH should be specified by the init script of the distribution. lxdm fallback was PATH=/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin, and appeared to always fallback to this, whenever you specify or not the path in the init script (which is an upstart script in Ubuntu). The last upload of lxdm re-enabled this behavior, so it should be fixed now for lxdm.

[Lubuntu-desktop] testing and reporting
so fare pcmanfm2 is way better then its preddessessor the autoload is great for disk nice touch control over desktop like backgrounds via right click and selecting desktop preferances very nice i agree with goggle code and we need a lxcontrol this would be a very good addiction, also a compiz like control or a one button switch so people whom can use compiz can click it and it does the --compiz replace command or the cammand to switch back to openbox for those whom can spare the extra resources if they choose to. maybe add some games to the package that are basic all desktops seem to have them usually gnome kde even lxde does. apps tested so fare and running very well including playonlinux. again you guys are making my os dreams come true. peace out and many many thanks daniel rose -- This message was sent from Launchpad by the user daktas (https://launchpad.net/~poetgod7-hotmail) using the Contact this team link on the Lubuntu team page.

Pretty logo and a touch of aubergine on the boot screen. But it won’t install with less than 192 MiB of RAM. Will report more when fully installed. -- Steve (Yorvyk) 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
