<0> did that didnt work
<0> cos i left the [] empty
<1> what for?
<2> are there minimum system specs for fluxbox? or at least recommendations?
<3> ak|ra: no, it still does not work...
<3> and i have no clue why it does not. i don't even have a clue where to look
<1> mhhh ...
<1> crashmatrix: a running x11
<2> cool
<2> then my P1 box can still be useful :)
<0> ak|ra:> i dont want to log out
<0> i want to shutdown
<1> The-Croupier: whatabout replacing the logout procedure with the shutdown command?
<3> ak|ra: i would ***ume that xtrlock/alock get executed but for some reason they are not able to lock the screen...
<1> i mean, without that dialog: accidentally clicking on the wrong menu will make you very angry.
<1> c4lcifer: but xscreensaver too?
<3> yes
<3> but every other app works...
<1> yah, thats what i mean, why not
<1> :)
<1> mhh
<3> somehow apps that want to get a certain 'control' over the screen and/or input device fail. but i'm just a dumb user you know...
<3> on the other hand all these apps work when i invoke them manually from a xterm command line.... *scratchhead*
<3> brb
<1> c4lcifer: which version of fbox?
<1> c4lcifer: and is the PATH the same for fbox and the xterms ?
<1> c4lcifer: what about using fullpath?
<1> Mod1 F1 :ExecCommand /usr/local/bin/alock -auth p***wd
<4> hello
<3> re
<4> is it possible to make a distance bewteen windows from 2 pixels?
<5> how well does fluxbox work with dual monitor?
<3> alock works when i omit the quotation marks!
<3> Mod1 F1 :ExecCommand /usr/bin/xtrlock <-- but this still does not work...
<3> how could it be a path issue if i invoke the command with absolute path?
<6> try to redirect the outputs to a temp file or strace it
<3> ak|ra: fluxbox version is 0.9.14 (package from debian etch)
<1> mhh
<3> akem: Mod1 F1 :ExecCommand /usr/bin/xtrlock 2>&1 > /tmp/xtrlock.log <--- like this?
<1> yep
<6> > /tmp/blah 2>&1
<1> or watch the output of fbox itself
<6> yea
<3> hm, /tmp/xtrlock.log gets created but its 0 byte
<3> ak|ra: what do you mean by 'fbox itself'?
<3> where should i look?
<1> well, you can fireup a 2nd xserver
<1> run a fbox from a xterm on your first xserver and watch the output :)
<3> mmh, sorry, i don't know how to do this :-/
<3> startx says that there is already a x server running
<7> hi, can someone help me with keys file command to lauch Submenu?
<8> ah, i've made a patch
<8> for doing this
<7> i need to launch one of menus under the Rootmenu with key shortcut
<8> yes yes, is my path, is my patch
<7> :)
<8> i search the link
<7> from...?
<8> http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=1651838&group_id=35398&atid=413962
<8> this patch adds a keycommand that can be used to pop up a custom menu different than ~/.fluxbox/menu
<4> is it possible to use space between the windows i open?
<8> now, if you compose the rootmenu with includes, you can dedicate a keycommand to one subsection of the menu
<8> it sounds very italish, i think
<7> thank you very much! :D
<7> bye and thanks once more...
<8> my first customer
<1> c4lcifer: startx =xterm -- :1
<1> c4lcifer: will open a new xserver and an empty xterm
<1> ow, wait
<1> startx `which xterm` -- :1
<1> (for the nonzsher)
<1> and on that xterm you can enter "fluxbox"
<1> you ll see fbox's output on that xterm then
<5> how well does fluxbox work with dual monitor?
<1> great
<5> oh?
<9> damn it; I hope nobody was trying to talk to me, 'cause I didn't get it
<1> nope
<10> I asked this the other day, but does anyone know if there is an existing way to set the Layer of a window from an outside program, something like wmctrl?
<10> I can do it for a single window with a hotkey, but I'd like to do it for a whole list of them at a time
<9> use wmctrl to change the layer
<10> hmm, maybe I'm dealing with an old version of wmctrl, but I haven't seen that option
<9> wmctrl -r <WIN> -b add,above or -b add,below
<9> depending on whether you want the windows on top or on the bottom, of course
<10> oh, don't know how I missed that
<10> thanks a ton
<8> hey is there a way in the apps file to keep tabbed for examples all the gaim windows (buddy list and chat win)
<8> i've putted [Tab] {yes} in the gaim group
<8> umh,
<8> ,apps?
<11> read all about the mystic `apps' file in the fluxbox manpage, section "APPLICATIONS SETTINGS" or at http://fluxbox-wiki.org/index.php/Howto_edit_the_apps_file . Basically, it allows you to define the state of applications when they are started and make them automatically group using regular expression matching.
<9> there you go
<12> you you use regexps and different matches such as title and role and whatnot
<8> have i to use the [group] tag?
<12> yup
<12> well, if you want to tab things together then yes
<8> then yes
<8> yeah
<8> it's moving how everything under fluxbox works so gorgeoursly
<8> but at the wiki page i'll add a further [end] tag, otherwise it's confusing: the text says to add a further [end] to match the [group], but in the example it lacks

<13> hi folks - i created a new style for my fluxbox, and i can access it from my user styles menu item, but when i restart fluxbox, it reverts to a different style on the menu (the first one as it turns out) - anyone have any ideas were i may be goofed up?
<14> permissions
<9> permissions in your init file?
<9> hehe
<13> i was wonderin bout that
<13> ok -- i'll check it
<13> right now init is set 400 for my user -- what should it be?
<9> well, you should be able to write to it
<14> 600 at least
<9> unless you feel like running fluxbox as root
<13> ok - i;ll give that a wack and see what happens
<13> no
<13> i dont -- i know thats bad
<15> busy in here today.... </sarcasm>
<16> shhhht....
<9> hey, who's making noise in here? I'm trying to work!
<16> me too, I am translating the asciidoc to german right now.
<16> Got about 30% of it...
<15> lol
<9> the keys section needs some serious work
<9> and we should probably get tenner to look at fluxstyle
<16> The english or german one?
<16> I might as well edit the english one when I am at it anyway
<9> both, I ***ume
<16> I'll have a look at it
<15> does anyone use ROX?
<16> I read through the english one anyway, as I translate it 1:1
<9> no, it's a wonder they keep trying to get people to use it
<15> what's wrong with it?
<9> it was born with two left feet
<16> sometimes it's hard to decide whether I should keep the english word (tabs, as an example), as they are common in german... (tabs would be Reiter, but almost nobody uses this word)
<15> lol
<15> do you use something else? Or just fluxbox with CLI?
<9> CLI
<15> 'cause sometimes it's just easier to use a GUI
<15> for me, anyway
<15> I'm obviously not a real nerd
<15> :P
<16> as filemanager?
<15> yup
<16> konqueror here
<16> but that is a question of taste
<15> basically I just need something very light
<15> 'cause my poor old PIII is not happy with GNOME or KDE
<15> even Xubuntu was too much for it
<15> Fluxbox runs really well, but I sometimes feel the need for a filemanager
<9> is there something wrong with rox?
<15> not really
<15> just wondering if anyone knew something better
<9> ,faq?
