I can't seem to find a guide or reference on how to configure the 'indicator-applet' (aka MessagingMenu) that came about in the 9.04 release of Ubuntu. It's that little mail icon that lists messaging apps.
I can find docs about what it should do, people complaining about how it works, references that the API changed in 9.10, but not much on how to change the configuration.
The MessagingMenu design spec page says that the config file should be at $HOME/.config/indicators/messages/applications/
, but there's nothing there on my install (9.10).
Love it, 2.5K view, not a single upvote. – Tim Lytle – 2010-04-19T17:01:05.407
Should possibly be moved to askubuntu now? – Tim Lytle – 2010-10-14T15:21:04.730
No migration path to AskUbuntu exists, and at this point it doesn't look like there will. Therefore you will need to manually repost. There is currently lengthy discussions about not moving Ubuntu questions since they are all 100% on topic for SuperUser, and mass migration adds no value to AskUbuntu. – BinaryMisfit – 2010-10-14T15:27:15.547
@Diago, yeah, I get mass migration being bad, just seemed that this is so specifically Ubuntu (even to the version), that it would be better over there. But if that's the way it is right now, I'll not buck the system and repost. – Tim Lytle – 2010-10-14T16:28:38.840
So you want to know how to post your own information to the applet? – Suppressingfire – 2009-11-20T18:19:56.167
Post would be great, but the first step (for me) would be just getting rid of the applications I don't use (without uninstalling them). – Tim Lytle – 2009-11-20T18:45:32.697
