Hey guys,

as you may have noticed, updates to this blog are few and far between. Sadly, I’ve found it harder and harder to find Xubuntu-related material to blog about. I imagine it’s because I’ve shifted more towards GNOME and Openbox. That being said, I felt that was no reason to go months without blogging. To make up for it, I’ve decided to start a more general-purpose Linux blog:

http://toodumbforgentoo.wordpress.com/

Unlike this blog, this one won’t be tied to any certain niche. It’ll basically run on the basis of posting whatever I like whenever I like. That being said, I won’t be abandoning this blog altogether. My blog partner Vincent will still be around to make posts, and I’ll probably pop in and blog from time to time.

It’s been a great 2 years with this blog, but now I feel it’s time to move on to something more.

Too bad

I find it hard myself to find time for blogging, especially with my blogging activity being splatted across a lot of different niche blogs. Ah well, good luck with your new blog

whoa! just when I was starting to fall in love with Xubuntu, you guys have given me a different perspective on it. Does it look less promising now?

With Xfce-4.6 coming soon, I think you’ll be back soon.

I want to make some systemwide customizations to the panel without having to log in to other user accounts. In other words, I want the following changes to be the default configuration for any new users I may add in the future.

Here’s what I want.

* Just one panel on the bottom, set to a pixel size of 24, fixed position, full width, and situated on the bottom left.
* I want to have the Application applet without the Applications text beside the icon.
* I want to remove the Help launcher beside the Firefox launcher and add a Thunderbird launcher, Pidgin launcher, and set the Trash applet and Show Desktop applet to the right of the Pidgin launcher.
* I want to put the Task List applet beside the Show Desktop applet.
* I want the Separator or Spacing applet to the right of the Task List applet and set to “expand”.
* I want the xfce4-mixer applet to the right of the Separator or Spacing applet.
* I want the System Tray applet to the right of the xfce4-mixer applet.
* I want the Clock applet to the right of the System Tray applet set to 12 hour mode and displaying AM/PM.
* I want the Panel Actions applet to the right of the Clock applet with action type set to Quit.
