Shutdown button in LXDE

#16 Post by jogreer »

Hi. I've been using LXDE Light for a while now and it is amazing. I have two issues though:

firstly how do I create shortcuts with Win+keys without adding icons to the desktop and linking to keyboard shortcuts?

secondly how do I fix the shutdown button so it doesn't reboot the computer but actually shuts the computer off?

Thanks :)

I like the default puppy monitors, I don't like the newer freememory applet although, The numbers for memory were nicer
I'm with you on those two points Ttuuxxx ;)
Do you know a good gtkdialog program? Please post a link here

You can enable the win keys by setting you keyboard model to "pc104". You can do this by using this: Menu>Setup>Mouse/Keyboard Wizard>Advanced...>OK>Keyboard Model

BTW the win key is then set as Hyper modifier key , so not Meta modifier key or Super modifier key.

Hi! I've just downloaded your lxde pet, and I can't find the menu(documents, graphics, etc.) when I press right-click :(.

Hey!

I've got a few questions...

Firstly, I'd like to know if there is a menu refresh script because when I install an app, the menus don't get updated(the JWM's menu gets updated), even after a reboot.

Secondly, do you plan to make a full version of this? I mean to make a full replacement of ROX to use it with this WM.

Thanks,
Paul Herman
