Shadowhand's Devel Repo (Firefox, Gaim, Xfce, etc)

ralvy · 2006-03-01 04:50:40

I haven't tried Shadowhand's xfce4-svn stuff yet. Can I just install xfce4-svn with xfce4 in place? I imagine I should remove xfce4 first.

shadowhand · 2006-03-01 05:45:39

You can't use xfce-svn and xfce at the same time, because they are two versions of the same programs.

Hey do you know when the gtk-engines-cvs will go back to ovalated buttons, I cannot stand the box ones, once I upgraded to the new one I built the older version to get back to the buttons like before.

Actually, I patch gtk-engines-cvs to prevent rounded buttons. I'll consider going back though.

Well, that's what I figured, so I removed xfce4 first before installing xfce4-svn from your repo. It looks very very nice. I'm impressed. It's come a long way indeed.

I see that there's no datetime plugin for svn yet. Is that correct? I like to see the date in the clock plugin.

...hehe...
had the same problem, bothered shadowhand who told me that the URL changed. Check the sticky note in this forum.

BTW shadowhand, maybe it would be a good idea if you changed the footer on your posts, cause I think it still shows the old URL.

Cheers,
Blind

:shock: Ohh.... k.... but why? I guess it's not possible to patch it so that you can choose wether to use rounded buttons or not? I already miss the "round corners".

Indeed! Maybe you(shadowhand) could make 2 versions.

Because I think the square corners look better. 8) Next release will be rounded corners.

Awsome!

Hi Shadowhand,

Great job indeed!
Could it be possible to have different versions of compiz according to the DE (kde, xfce, or gnome) ?

And must glxcompmgr depends on gconf ? And why mesa-cvs does not replace/provide/conflict mesa ?

Cerebral · 2006-03-01 21:26:46

And why mesa-cvs does not replace/provide/conflict mesa ?

Oo, oo, I know the answer to this one! mesa-cvs installs itself to /opt/mesa-cvs to specifically _not_ conflict with the version of mesa in the repos. This is by design.

sebcactus · 2006-03-01 21:28:27

Thanks

And no..I cannot be bothered to read through this entire thread.

I think people are relying on this repo for that:

My desktop screws up if I use conky with the latest few versions of xfce4-svn (xfwm4-svn). It (conky) kind of overlaps my xfdesktop backdrop. Have a look at it here
You can see parts of my background pic where adesklets overlaps it. When I disable conky everything looks fine, it doesn't seem to be a problem with adesklets so.

Any ideas what could be wrong?

Cheers Sigi

PS.: I haven't tested the very latest version of xfce4-svn yet, will post soon if the problem persists..

edit: fixed typo

stonecrest · 2006-03-07 01:11:32

Yeah, conky with double buffering doesn't work so well with xfdesktop now that thunar's involved it seems. For the time being, you can add to your conky config:

own_window yes
own_window_transparent yes

Sigi · 2006-03-07 06:40:48

thx stonecrest!
"own_window_transparent yes" did the trick..

Hi folks
I've got a new, more serious prob:
I've tried to change the color-sheme in the xfce4-settings-thing and my x-server crashed. If I try to start up xfce4-svn (old session or new one) I got segfaulted. I can't give you more infos atm and for the next 10h, because I'm at work. Well I can give you more infos, but I don't have access to my box. Anyway, are there already any ideas what I can do to fix this :?:

I'm using Xorg7 and the ati-driver-archck (and matching kernel) without any Xgl-stuff. I also tried the second latest version of the xfce4-svn-pkgs, didn't work eighter..

Cheerio Sigi

shadowhand · 2006-03-09 16:52:09

Remove the packages and reinstall:

pacman -Rd xfce4-svn-extra xfce4-svn && pacman -S xfce4-svn xfce4-svn-extra

Sigi · 2006-03-09 18:45:04

It works!
But it wasn't the reinstall that solved the prob. Because something was wrong with my configs after the crash i deleted the .config/xfce4 dir. Problem solved. Thx anyway for your help, and keep up the good work..

Have you thought of making an Inkscape-CVS pkgbuild?

Hi,

just want to try out XGL. I tried it several times. But pacman always gives me:

checking package integrity...
error: archive xgl-cvs-20060308-1.pkg.tar.gz is corrupted
