Re: Indicator applet API changes in Ubuntu 9.10 - http://blog.garethj.com/2009...
"Worth noting that with Karmic, any entry in /usr/share/indicators/messages/applications/ will appear permanently in the indicator applet. It seems that if the description is visible (from the .desktop file) then the app is not running and when the app is started (i.e. the server is created), the description disappears. I believe the ultimate plan is for users to be able to customize a bit more this themselves. Maybe this is what you're seeing?" - Gareth Jones

"No problem - glad it helped! As for removing the server item, does server.hide() work? I haven't tried it lately but I have a feeling I used that previously. You could also try removing all references to the server instance so the object is destroyed. Let me know how you get on." - Gareth Jones

Re: Wireless on a Dell Mini 10v in Ubuntu 9.10 - http://blog.garethj.com/2009...
"I've only seen what I've written in this article but someone did mention to me that other people have had different wireless problems with the Dell Minis and Ubuntu 9.10. Why do you need to install the desktop version? Can you install the Netbook Remix version and then install the ubuntu-desktop package on top?" - Gareth Jones
@andysc that would be due to the tornado http://www.dailyecho.co.uk/news...

@ben_ritchie have you turned on the internal ubuntu beta repositories for 9.10? everything works fine for me but i installed from scratch
@ragtag no problems with Air for me but I installed it when on the early beta and it worked fine
@ragtag They found a bug in ubuntu one where data could be lost so turned off the server capabilities. Fix soon
