pypanel spacing against bottom [SOLVED]

neuwerld · 2009-03-27 16:57:43

Hello I would really like to know if there is a answer to my question.
In this http://xs225.xs.to/xs225/08124/03.20.2008-shot616.png screenshot you can see that there is a spacing between the pypanel and the bottom of the screen.
Is there anybody that know how to fix this? I have tried to conf all sort of things but can´t seem to get it to work.

i saw that shot before, and if i'm not wrong this is not yours! u want to have spacing or not ? what do u mean about fixing? if you want to remove you need to set :
P_L_BUFF = 0
P_R_BUFF = 0
P_T_BUFF = 0
P_B_BUFF = 0
all to zero! if u want to have space u need to patch the pypanel, or there is a pkg on AUR: http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=17137

I´m sorry if I wasn´t totally clear with what I wanted, the screenshot is not mine I just took it from another post on the forum.
So then I need to install pypanel gaps to get the gap between the pypanel and the bottom of the screen then?

It would be easiest to use the AUR package. Go to the aur link he gave and click on files. Download the .patch and PKGBUILD. Make a folder called pypanel and place both files there. Then, cd to that directory you just make with the files and run the command makepkg. It will build the package for you. Then you need to, as root, run pacman -U *.tar.gz to install.

For future use of the AUR, look into a package call yaourt.

EDIT - Thanks for liking my shot.

Thanks, I will try this right now.
I have used makepkg a little (i´m still learning), I don´t want to use yaourt isn´t that a graphical installer?
I want to learn to do it the best way but also the hard way
Haha yes your screen is really nice.

Thanks again for the help, if I stumble on some problems I will get back to you!

When I tried to install I got back that I already had the file existing in the filesystem, is there a way to force it to upgrade or what am I supposed to do ?

the aur pypanel is conflicting with the existing pypanel. you should've also got a message saying "replacing packages with -U is not supported" or something.

pacman -R pypanel before pacman -U ing the new aur package.

Haha I am stupid I figured out right after my last post what to do, but thanks for the help.
It works like a charm now
Now I can mark this thread as solved.
