File sharing

I was wondering if anyone knew a somewhat easy way to do file sharing. i've used samba before on ubuntu and kubuntu, but samba doesn't seem to want to work on lxde. i don't have much experience with samba outside of nautilus and dolphin. i'm aware pcfileman doesn't work with samba, but i couldn't fi...

Re: RAM graph

ya i see what you mean there, and i feel having a resource efficient os comes with a price. but with the few suggested programs i had, it would at least give people a less tedious start. things like ktsuss and wicd in my opinion are more mandatory than just something nice to have. one of the disadva...

Re: RAM graph

Re: Temperature monitor won't apply settings

I have the same panel version (i'm running the debian 5.0 testing) and i can make other configurations for the temperature monitor and they work. i can make changes in anything and they work - just not those 2 numbers edit: i'm not sure if this will help, but my login isn't root. i'm a normal admini...

RAM graph

i'm aware that almost nobody has to worry about ram usage on lxde, even if you have as little as 384mb, but i think the panel's cpu graph should also be expandable to show ram and swap usage (or at least ram) as well. an option for editing the size of the graph would be nice too, but the size is ok ...

Temperature monitor won't apply settings

I'm not new to linux but am new to lxde. I added the temperature monitor and it does work and i can customize the colors, but i can't change the warning1 and warning2 temperatures. is there a fix for this?
