Neat -that could be a fun little project. Thanks for the info. Much appreciated.

I'm wondering where|if past notifications are stored -is there a log somewhere? Alternatively, is there a project that captures cinnamon notifications so that they can be viewed later? I'm running Cinnamon 4.0.10 with the notifications applet (notifications@cinnamon.org) on Antergos. Thanks for your...

seeing how everyone so kindly ignored my silly screwup ;) I thought I'd post my sources and preferences for any suggestions: Package: * Pin: release o=linuxmint Pin-Priority: 500 Package: * Pin: origin packages.linuxmint.com Pin-Priority: 500 Package: * Pin: release o=Debian Pin-Priority: 500 ####DE...

nahh :shock: there's no such an influx atm in sid or in testing post the actual sources.list you're working with at the moment Oh Maaan, I don't wanna admit this... I un-commented Experimental trying to get steam running and forgot to re-comment. (Let's pretend this didn't happen) Thanks for the qu...

Thanks zerozero (as always), I've been cautiously pulling things out and haven't run into any major issues. I somehow pulled out gdm3 which became obvious at reboot :D , I installed mdm and that was that. O ther than that I accidentally removed gedit (gnome, but I like it). All easy to recover from....

I feel a bit like I'm spamming up the place with these long code blocks -is there a show/hide or spoiler bbcode tag enabled? Anyway, here goes: {13-01-14 8:13}m0nster2:~ fiver22% sudo apt-get purge gnome-shell (...) The following package was automatically installed and is no longer required: libmusi...

Yer a peach, zerozero :) I AM in Xfce. I'll pull the obvious stuff out and err on the side of caution. Stuff that MAY have pulled in nautilus and gnome stuff: TrueCrypt -it launches nautilus by default, it seems. The other is dropbox -even though I've followed some tutorials to get it working with x...

fiver, i would start looking for the usual suspect dpkg -l | grep nautilus in 2 xfce installs it reports zerozero@debian:~$ dpkg -l | grep nautilus ii libnautilus-extension1a 3.4.2-1+build1 amd64 libraries for nautilus components - runtime version zerozero@un-xfce:~$ dpkg -l | grep nautilus ii libn...

What packages are being upgraded? I'd assume one of them now depends on gnome-shell, and I don't know which one that would be. (...) Just looked and they're actually all upgrades O.o 0 newly installed. Dunno how THAT happened. I'm running xfce4.10 -partly because I'm on old hardware :D I didn't rea...

Just wanted to say hello and express my interest in lmde xfce.
I've been creepin' on the thread for a while, watching developments
Thanks for doing this! o/

Heya holden87, The standard LMDE (no post install messing with sources.list) is very stable. It's quite easy to install and use compared to many distros but lacks some of the 'hand holding' that say Ubuntu does, or even the regular mint releases. I would call it a perfect step outside regular Mint o...

Many thanks for the replies and suggestions, folks. Much appreciated. Merci bien.

Thanks very much zerozero and cwwgateway -lots of good info. As for gnome updates...

Hello fellow followers of testing. I have a general question about tracking testing: Is there a time I should be watching out for when Testing becomes particularly dangerous, or conversely approaches stability (and so becomes stagnant)? I've read over a few docs on stable and testing but to be hones...

I have two issues with Thunar: - it doesn't recognise my USB storage devices, which I use a lot; - it doesn't have Copy to.../Move to... menu items; they can be set up as custom actions, but then don't work properly. Thunar always recognized my USB devices and still does on this update to 1.6.whate...

Thanks for the replies, folks. I've the added siduction repo and updated -all is well. I'm looking forward to seeing what I make of the additions/updates to Thunar. I was one of those 'omgpls2addTabs' kids for a long time and now I don't know if I'll even use them :) GeneC: We're practically neighbo...

Marking as solved. So, I thought another issue I was having was unrelated. Apoparently it was because resolving that fixed this threads issue. The other issue was that I had no desktop -I had panels and rarely use the desktop for anything so I barely noticed it ;) To solve both issues I had to dl 2 ...
