Re: [Lubuntu-desktop] Extend desktop across dual monitors -- a feature I would like to see in Lubuntu 12.xx
Le 10/07/2011 06:13 AM, PCMan a écrit : For the desktop panel: 1. one panel per monitor, configured separately 2. one panel exending to the external monitor 3. one panel staying on main monitor, no panel on the external one 4. one panel exending to the external monitor, but have the most important panel applets on the main monitor, and the rest on the external monitor 5. Other possibilities... For the desktop icons manager, options are: 1. icons on main monitor only. 2. some icons on main monitor, others on the external monitors. (Then how to handle icon rearrangement when the external monitor is disconnected?) 3. others... For wallpaper: 1. one wallpaper per monitor 2. one wallpaper extending to all monitors 3. others... I think it's a good idea to collect usages of dual monitor users first. For example, I use dual monitors on a desktop computer like this : - I have one main screen, where I mainly works and stay focus on it. - I expect to have on this main screen the panel and the icons - I doesn't matter where is the wallpaper :) - I don't plan to plug and unplug my monitors :) But, when you use it as a laptop user, it's probably different (presentation, frequently plug and unplug ...).

Re: [Lubuntu-desktop] Last tests before 11.10 release
Ali, we need testing on completely new install - not an upgrade. New people will not be using zsync... they will be using the iso. At this time of year (release time) the servers get hammered. Too many people, too few servers. It is for this reason we beg people to use the torrents and be seeders; every seeder makes a difference for the better. I'll drag down the RC version and pop it onto piglet. This is the version new people will be using. (I'm hoping they have got the Ubiquity system working, else we're going to be giving lessons on the alternate CD ;) ) Regards, Phill.

Re: [Lubuntu-desktop] Last tests before 11.10 release
Hello Phill, Sure thing. I just founded it (zsync) so interesting to try, thus I tired it but it was so slow and I understand now why is that. Yes, I always think that seeding and using torrent is much better but as you said, we are begging people to use that but we can't force them, apparently. This is the page I found: http://iso.qa.ubuntu.com/qatracker/info/6772 However, I can't see any torrent here. I stopped the upgrade (zsync) and will go for downloading and as usual, will do that on my both test PCs. I'll drag down the RC version and pop it onto piglet. This is the version new people will be using. (I'm hoping they have got the Ubiquity system working, else we're going to be giving lessons on the alternate CD ;) ) Sorry, I did not get that?

Re: [Lubuntu-desktop] Last tests before 11.10 release
Hi Ali, you will not see pre-release versions on torrents. The final QA testing is the most critical part. It is when the few say that it is ready for the many. After that all the fireworks start. Doing installs of QA releases is a lot more important than people realise. I'm happy that you are going to try the QA version. As Julien said, if you have a bug SHOUT (But please do check the known ones before you raise a new one). Regards, Phill.

Re: [Lubuntu-desktop] Last tests before 11.10 release
Hello Phill, Understood and I expected that but I had to check so thanks :) You know I'm up to anything that will help us to be better and better. I understand TIME is one of the hardest challenges we do have but that's not a problem at all :) I'm so much positive that we'll rock the world ... few more days to prove that. Sure, I'll check before shouting so no worries :) Thanks! On Sat, Oct 8, 2011 at 9:33 PM, Phill Whiteside phi...@ubuntu.com wrote: Hi Ali, you will not see pre-release versions on torrents.
