    facebook client?
    using R6 on my netbook.  I tried to launch gwibber but can't seem to get to the signup screen.  Pidgin does not install for some reason.
     
    anyone have the client working?

    adjust grub menu time
    on ubuntu I was able to adjust the grub menu time with "startupmanager" install.  Is there a way to shorten the default grub menu time in wattOS?
     
    thanks,

    thanks, in my case it was xfce4-session-logout.  Got it working with keyboard shortcut.

    My bad. If you're using a terminal, you have to type "leafpad" before the location: leafpad ~/.config/openbox/lxde-rc.xml The way I accessed it was to just open PCManFM, click on "Show Hidden" under the "view" menu and navigate to the file, right click on it and select "leafpad" to open it. However, the terminal way is faster.

    this is great tip, I can open chromium with  Super_L but can't seem to get it with the same key+w.  Will it work with Super_L+w? or
    I actually found the prob.  It should be "W+w".  Capital W is for windows key and small w, now when I enter the combo, the chromium starts.  For some reason "W+t" does not activate my lxterminal...
