RSSOWL keeps it's internal web cache in /home/user/.mozilla/eclipe/ ...in Ubuntu Hardy

If you would like to add that to the folders to clean... that would be great... tnx

Bleachbit is the best !

Delete uneeded xorg drivers

Forums: 
Forum tags: 

I would like Bleachbit to be able to remove unneeded xorg log files:
"/usr/lib/xorg/modules/drivers/"

for example, I only need, and will never need anything else but my integrated Intel driver.
There is a ton of useless drivers that for my system I will never use.

VLC media player?

Forums: 

I'm not seeing it--is there a way to get BleachBit to clean VLC's history? I'm running Linux.

Delete old Linux Kernels

Forums: 
Forum tags: 

It would be nice if BleachBit could remove old Kernels which are not automatically removed with

sudo apt-get autoremove && sudo apt-get autoclean && sudo apt-get clean

that cleans additionally several 100MB in the most cases.

Old Kernels can automatically removed with:
sudo dpkg -l 'linux-*' | sed '/^ii/!d;/'"$(uname -r | sed "s/\(.*\)-\([^0-9]\+\)/\1/")"'/d;s/^[^ ]* [^ ]* \([^ ]*\).*/\1/;/[0-9]/!d' | xargs sudo apt-get -y purge

Perhaps its possible to add this to BleachBit.

Thanks!

When installing bleachbit to /usr/local the locales are put in /usr/share instead of /usr/local/share

busybox swapoff

Forum tags: 

When using busybox swapoff the "-v" switch is not supported.

Work around:
sudo sed -i 's!, "-v"!!' /usr/local/share/bleachbit/Memory.py

Security concerns for updates...

Forums: 
Forum tags: 

Very fine software.

I have an important security concern I'm hoping you can help solve.

Question 1:
How can I be sure the .xml updates are legitimate and from you,
what checks are in place? Is there a method to verify the updates via hash or key or otherwise?

Question 2:
Can I accept 'all' updates at once without having to click OK to each one?

Thank you much.

Clear Nautilus (Linux, GNOME) history?

Forums: 
Forum tags: 

Can the next version implement a feature to clear out the Nautilus history, such as recently browsed directories? Currently, Bleachbit only seems to clear out recently used files and applications, but leaves the folder history untouched. I use openSUSE (GNOME) and Linux Mint (GNOME, based on Ubuntu).

heads up on 0.7.0 and Dropbox (nautilus-dropbox) daemon

Forums: 

This did not happen until 0.7.0 came out so I am certain that there is something in the newly added clean-up features that erases the components that are Dropbox daemon. I have not yet isolated the problem, but if you use Dropbox automatic file backup utility (www.getdropbox.com), you may want to unselect the newly added features such as Deep Scan. Otherwise next time you try to link Dropbox to your harddrive it will have to download and reinstall the daemon. In any case files saved in your Dropbox directory (usually /home/you/Dropbox/) remain intact.
