What the last phrase mean? Which version number and against what? In any case i purged and re-installed lubuntu-software- center (after sudo apt-get update and sudo apt-get upgrade but nothing changed. >>>> 3) pcmanfm crashes often while installing a 2nd instance of it - reported >>>> as bug >>> just had 111 instances open simultaneously. again, what are the >>> conditions? we need to figure out how to reliably reproduce this. what >>> bug #? >> I posted this via apport to launchpad, but i'm unable to find it now. >> ERROR: apport (pid 2200) Sat Feb 18 06:37:16 2012: wrote report >> /var/crash/_usr_bin_pcmanfm.1000.crash > is that file still around? you could try searching launchpad for terms > based on it. if that doesn't work, perhaps more easy is to get on > launchpad, click on your name, click bugs and hunt for it. >> In human words: When i have open pcmanfm as root and then open another >> instance of pcmanfm, then it crashes - but not systematically. > do you not have the same problem if you are not using as root? No only when one instance is root. Here is the link: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/pcmanfm/+bug/934756 >> >>>> 7) The fan speed problem . . . ....[ . . . ] What i can say for sure: With the PowerNow Daemon (powernowd) at the lower cpu frequency the fan is turned off. At high speed after a couple of minutes it begins to turn. No speed variation recognizeable, at least for me. That's for sure not the cleanest way but for the moment a viable workaround, eventually. It'd be way better to have a smooth temperature dependent and userwise controlleable controll of the fan speed. Btw, where is the place to configure that this daemon is started automatically with any bootup? /etc/init.d/powernowd looks like this: ----------------------- #! /bin/sh # Init script for powernowd # ### BEGIN INIT INFO # Provides: powernowd # Required-Start: $syslog $remote_fs $time # Required-Stop: $syslog $remote_fs # Default-Start: 2 3 4 5 # Default-Stop: 0 1 6 # Short-Description: Start powernowd . ### END INIT INFO PATH=/sbin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin DAEMON=/usr/sbin/powernowd NAME=powernowd DESC=powernowd OPTIONS="-q" test -x $DAEMON || exit 0 # modify the file /etc/default/powernowd if you want to add personal options [ -f /etc/default/$NAME ] && . /etc/default/$NAME set -e case "$1" in start) echo -n "Starting $DESC: " if [ -f /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_governor ] then start-stop-daemon --start --quiet --oknodo --exec $DAEMON -- $OPTIONS else echo "required sysfs objects not found!" printf "\tRead /usr/share/doc/powernowd/README.Debian for more information.\n" exit 0 fi echo "$NAME." ;; stop) echo -n "Stopping $DESC: " start-stop-daemon --stop --quiet --oknodo --exec $DAEMON echo "$NAME." ;; restart|force-reload) echo -n "Restarting $DESC: " start-stop-daemon --stop --quiet --oknodo --exec $DAEMON sleep 1 start-stop-daemon --start --quiet --oknodo --exec $DAEMON -- $OPTIONS echo "$NAME." ;; *) --------------------- And, on my machine, sudo /usr/sbin/powernowd results like this: --------------------- ~:~$ sudo /usr/sbin/powernowd powernowd: PowerNow Daemon v1.00, (c) 2003-2008 John Clemens powernowd: Found 1 scalable unit: -- 1 'CPU' per scalable unit powernowd: cpu0: 816Mhz - 1333Mhz (2 steps) ~:~$ --------------------- In my list, i forgot an important point: Rightclick on desktop surface menu ============================= When you rightclick on the desktop you have that menu with New, Paste etc and as a last item Configure Desktop. Clicking on that you have the options to configure the desktop ( pcmanfm --desktop-pref`). If you activate there Advanced on the rightclick you get now: PCManFM, Lxterminal, Browser - and nothing else. So, there is no way back save you start in terminal `pcmanfm --desktop-pref`. That's absolutely not good. The advanced menu, at least, should offer, over the 3 existing options, Setup Desktop and Obconf or Lxappearance. I tried to configure that "by hand" editing the `/usr/share/lubuntu/openbox/menu.xml`but it gave no effect. May be there is another config file overruling that one? -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~lubuntu-qa Post to : lubuntu-qa@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~lubuntu-qa More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
