No worries Machine ... It's a known bug w openbox 3.5 from what google had to say. Oddly ... people were saying it didn't effect lxterminal and the way you set it up should've fixed it anyway. Liking Trollinger more than any other distro I've tried on this laptop. A testament to your nix skills that...

^Nooooooo ... That's one of the reasons I try to avoid more obscure WM's. Am inherently lazy and openbox and fluxbox have always seemed easier to get along with. Was getting painful and pissed with this bug. Started wearing out the Alt + Tab keys getting new terminals to come up top. Sighs ... Oh we...

Pretty much what the title says, applies to Trollinger and may apply to other(s) using Openbox 3.5 ... Appears Openbox has or had a bug in it. Where if one terminal is already opened, when someone hits the keybinding to launch more, they open minimized in the panel. Instead of getting focus and appe...

Recently started having major apt-get upgrade and apt-get dist-upgrade butt pains in Trollinger. With md5 and Sha mismatches and the good ole error message. Some files failed to download. They have been ignored or older ones used. For me ... fix turned out to be editing the bbq.list in /etc/apt/sour...

Glad Dkeg ... I am definitely an autologin person aka: Lazy. :P Was hoping to simplify it for others. Perhaps bring some nixers that might need this type of fix and/or might come here and end up trying and really liking Linux BBQ when they come up empty with searches. Took me wayyyyy longer than I t...

^ Nicely summarized Rhow ... Though still kinda 1/2 cooked. Autologin on lightdm might not work w/o setting up the DE/WM you want in /usr/share/xsessions too. I snagged most of it from Machine himself in a post in another forum. Just thought it needed clarification. Tried following what looked to be...

Wanted to post something that worked well for me. Was having chitty browser speed using Trollinger + Firefox ( specifically version 18.0.2). Had done some of the normal about:config tweaks. enabled pipelining with network.http.pipelining, network.http.pipelining.ssl, network.http.proxy.pipelining .....

Wasn't sure where to post this so adding it to this section seemed an appropriate place. Had some headaches figuring out how to automatically login with lightdm. Wasn't covered very well on the net and decided to post about it here for others. In case like me you have a tendency to binge drink and a...

Lmao Vic ... great just what I need a lil roasting to go along with the rest of life. ;)

Thanks Machine :) and for all the warm welcomes.


VlLBBQ!

Fair question Hinto ... Again ... don't have much of a fair answer. Iceweasel vs Firefox iz a long running nix drama, I prefer FF. Thought it annoying that mozilla feeds people a 32bit version, when they download from mozilla's website ... after a few butt pains it became clear that I was getting 32...

Definitely welcome Dkeg ... For awhile there, was a real head scratcher for me. Wth !!! Why isn't it working like normal !??!?! Errrr ... dork you have a 32bit version of firefox on a 64bit system ... arghhhh ! Mozilla seems to be dropping the ball on this one. If it can save other nixers time or bu...

Got new lappy and it's been a massive PITA so far. Beginning to wonder if this sucker is an upgrade or a big step down, good ole trusty-crusty desktop never gives such butt pains ! Anyway ... went to download latest firefox from mozilla and run it from /home ... per usual. Go into firefox folder and...

Thanks for the warm welcome fellas ...

Should've gotten around to trying this distro sooner. Guessing like most of us, been swamped with life, work, work ... more work, kill me, kill me please. :P

Lmao ... thanks much Sir Ivan. Am beginning to despise new hardware + gnu/nix. Had to friggin install pulseaudio to get audio working half decent. Facing many new challenges w a new laptop, this thing should eat my old desktop for breakfast and not even have to chew ! Guess it doesn't help, that I'm...

Just saying hello to the bbq crowd. Finally got around to trying Machine's baby and am impressed with it. Went with Trollinger, as the release notes said it was suited for tinkers, lazy alcoholics and etc, when I read that thought HEY, sounds perfect for me. :P Liking it very much so far ... Still t...
