  Welcome message in bashrc
Posted by: ROMAINPC - 06-22-2022, 09:36 AM - Forum: Other - Replies (1)

Hello,


I recently had an issue with a program and the bash welcome message.
With a VScode extension which configure things by running a bash command and fetching the first few lines. This extension didn't work for me until I commented out the bashrc welcome message.

Maybe the extension is using the wrong method.
But I wanted to know if there were alternatives to display the welcome message? How does Ubuntu for example? Is there a conventional argument to indicate whether or not to display the message?


Best regards,
Romain.

  LL6.0 Locks Up After Opening LibreOffice Writer
Posted by: Larry Stehno - 06-18-2022, 10:31 PM - Forum: Other - Replies (5)

I installed LL6.0 on a Lenovo T61 Notebook.  When I open LibreOffice Writer the O/S locks up and I have to reboot to get to the operating system again.  Opening the Spreadsheet locks things up also.  I would appreciate any fix for this problem.
Thanks,

  Application to handle directories in 6.0
Posted by: dihonomo - 06-17-2022, 01:04 PM - Forum: Security & Bug Fixes - Replies (6)

To expand from my previous message (https://www.868212.xyz/forums/secur...n/msg57569), I have found that the setting controlling what application opens directories (by default) is still problematic.

The file "exo-file-manager.desktop" has disappeared from "/usr/share/applications", and  "~/.local/share/applications/defaults.list" points now (via symlink) to "/etc/gnome/defaults.list" where the two entries controlling "inode/directory" assign "org.gnome.Nautilus.desktop" and "Thunar-folder-handler.desktop" to handle directories.

However, none of these exist on a clean Linux Lite 6.0 install.

My solution to the problem was to create "~.local/share/applications/exo-file-manager.desktop" that contains:

Code:
[Desktop Entry]
Version=1.0
Type=Application
Exec=exo-open --launch FileManager %u
Icon=system-file-manager
StartupNotify=true
Terminal=false
Categories=Utility;X-XFCE;X-Xfce-Toplevel;
OnlyShowIn=XFCE;
X-XFCE-MimeType=inode/directory;x-scheme-handler/trash;
Name=File Manager
Comment=Browse the file system
Hidden=true

and then to replace the two entries in "/etc/gnome/defaults.list":
Code:
inode/directory=org.gnome.Nautilus.desktop
inode/directory=Thunar-folder-handler.desktop

with the following:
Code:
inode/directory=exo-file-manager.desktop
