[Lubuntu-desktop] Lubuntu Oneiric Alpha 1
Hi, A quick mail to announcement the availability of Lubuntu Oneiric Alpha 1. This ISO is just a snapshot of current development, there is no big noticeable changes. Current changes and know issues : - Build with install recommends by default - No langpack included - Include apt-xapian-index, which should be removed later - gnome-power-manager may crash - GTK3 applications are ugly This ISO is primary for developers which want to test the current result of the ISO, and testing curent behavior with the GTK2/GTK3 mix, and the switch to install recommends by default. You can also start testing Oneiric in the VM by installing it with this ISO. No need to heavily test the ISO, we are going to switch the build system, and nothing really new is in (no updates of LXDE and related packages).

Hello everyone I encountered the same problem when installing lubuntu 11.04. I solved it by erasing all partitions with gparted live cd and installing minimal install .iso from usb drive.

Re: [Lubuntu-desktop] [Pcmanfm-develop] Directory tree is now available in PCManFM!
I don't know what people think but maybe the change from Places←→Directory tree could be put in the 'View' menu or in the preferences so as to leave more space in the side panel? I think the old pcmanfm had a button for that, right? For me it isn't really needed to be quick to access that but for some people may be, I don't know. But trying to leave as much space as possible in the side pane is good. ___ 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
Re: [Lubuntu-desktop] gtk3
The attached image looks nice (Well, anything would be better than the 1st email :P ) Nice work. When you get the chance / time, could you have a chat with charlie-tca about a theme for those with eye-sight problems? He has done extensive work on it for xubuntu and has said he would be more than happy to assist. charlie-...@ubuntu.com aka https://launchpad.net/~charlie-tca There is no desperate rush, it is just a case of starting off the accessibility areas of lubuntu wich will be a couple of cycles in the making.

[Lubuntu-desktop] Possible bug?
Good morning all, I've come across something very weird this morning that I've never seen before. Trying to open any program via the gui menu or taskbar icons results in them trying to open as root (I noticed because PCmanFM threw errors that I didn't have permission to open the /home/user location). I'm logged in as a normal user and whenever I open programs from the terminal prompt it functions as expected. Should I file a bug or does any one have any other suggestions?

Firstly, I think your description of the issue may be upside-down. If the commands run from the GUI were being run as root, they would more or less by definition be able to access any file owned by any user anywhere on your machine (unless you have been doing some unusual things with POSIX ACLs, or kernel capability bits, or both... which I rather doubt!). You asked for things to try to troubleshoot this further: (1) In LXTerminal (assuming you can launch LXterminal OK), what does the command id output? It should tell you who LXterminal thinks you are. You can also try who am i as another way to see who you are :) (2) Next, check that your shell is clear about who you are, with echo $USER has a home at $HOME and then check that the passwd file has you listed sanely, with grep $USER /etc/passwd Then recheck the permissions on your home dir with ls -ld $HOME You could also usefully check for files (or directories) in there which are *not* owned by you, with find $HOME ! -user $USER -ls which will output nothing at all on a 'normal' machine. (3) Now, you need to find out who the various GUI components of LXDE are running as, because it sounds to me as though they may be running as someone else. ps aux |grep lx should be a start on that. (4) If you really want more homework after all that, just for fun, run pcmanfm, but run it from the shell, not by pressing buttons anywhere (hands off that mouse!) : pcmanfm Now check whether it can see your files (in $HOME and elsewhere) normally, and can work with them, and also check who it is now running as, just as a you never know check: ps aux |grep pcmanfm OK, that's enough things to try for one email :) Jonathan ___ 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

(1) Logging in and out does not change uptime, rebooting changes uptime. (2) Unless the machine is controlling an artificial heart, or something similarly medically-oriented, *why* do you value your machine uptime?
