<0> Damn.
<1> does anyone prefer a certain filemanager?
<2> ,wiki
<3> go check the wiki at http://fluxbox-wiki.org/
<1> ok _markt tnx
<4> That's at least the second time that question has been asked today
<1> Ardonik: im split between using an mc-like fm to a graphical one like konqueror for simple drag and drop jobs
<1> i've been spoilt by m$ exploder too much :/
<2> learn to use the shell
<4> nocti: remember that fluxbox is just a WM. If you want a full drag-and-drop-capable desktop and filemanager that's lightweight, there are full-blown desktop environments that would be better matches for you.
<4> My file manager is aterm (seriously.)
<1> hrm, i would rather stay with flux than switch to an eye-candy'esque wm like gnome/kde
<1> but i think i'll install konqueror just for the heck of it
<4> Fluxbox is where the eye candy is, in my opinion.
<1> me too :) i think fluxbox is prettier, but gnome/kde just push too much on that side
<1> either that or im getting old



<2> you're definitely getting old
<1> :)
<5> nocti, i prefer konqueror
<1> roger that
<5> :)
<4> I used to prefer velocity
<4> Then I started using aterm
<1> ld50: me too but just for some jobs (like cleaning up files), but i gravitate more to the kybd and terminals, must be the arthritis
<1> Ardonik: velocity?
<4> nocti: do a web search.
<6> Ardonik: rox filer is small, lightweight, and supports DND.
<6> But for most tasks the shell is best.
<4> lack: good to know, though I'll probably never use it.
<7> hello.. what these apps that display CPU/RAM status on desktop?
<8> gkrellm
<7> is this the only one and used by all? alternatives?
<4> Mahmoud: there are many, many others.
<8> there are many, that's what I use
<2> google
<4> adesklets, gdekslets, superkaramba, conky, torsmo,
<4> Google Dot Com....
<7> what is the general name of these things? i was googling by no relative sites were found
<4> A whole bunch of dockapps....
<2> linux system monitor?
<7> dockapps! that's what I need =]
<4> Monitoring apps, I guess
<7> is it a fluxbox thing to hide the titlebar?
<2> ,borderless
<3> to get rid of borders, titlebars or other things add an entry to (fluxbox-0.9.x-versions) ~/.fluxbox/apps eg ""[app] (aterm)\n [Deco] {NONE}\n[end]" (\n == newline), or see ,decor for temporary borderless. you can also refer to the docs or the Changelog
<7> cool =]
<7> compiled APM into my kernel, reboot time
<2> why would he do that?
<9> it's older no ? used apic instead
<2> acpi
<9> woOps :)
<10> oi
<10> i have slackware 10.2 so i guess that means gtk2 installed. now i want to change my gtk look. i have the gtk the switch program but that only seems to change gtk1 apps. is that right?
<2> ,switch
<3> To change GTK1 and GTK2 themes, you need a theme switcher. Fbot recommends gtk-chtheme, for GTK2 and switch1 for GTK1, the urls: http://plasmasturm.org/programs/gtk-chtheme/ & http://www.muhri.net/nav.php3?node=gts
<10> okay :)
<10> then when i use this, why doesnt firefox and xchat change appearance?
<10> in fact, othing changes
<2> I don't care
<10> right
<2> 8)
<10> o.o
<10> urgh
<10> it doesnt work
<2> that's too bad
<10> ...
<10> where to start?
<10> i wanna fix it
<2> a gtk-related channel, perhaps?
<10> interresting
<10> crap
<11> is it possible to set where on the screen a program will open to?
<11> example. i would like for gkrellm to also opn to the right hang side of the screen
<2> ,apps



<3> 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.
<2> or you could just use the window menu
<4> unrooting: ig you're using gkrellm as a dockapp in the slit, its position is controlled by the position of the slot.
<11> can u have more then one slit?
<2> no
<11> so gkrellm can only go into one slot?
<4> You can have as many gkrellms running as you want. Try it!
<11> ok but like when i use the slit can i tell it where i want it to go? or which slot??\
<2> Ardonik: this is what you get for giving extra information 8)
<2> I'll take a "**** you" any day
<4> _markt: point taken
<4> Though I wouldn't resort to that
<4> unrooting: Use the slitlist to control order. It's described in one of the fluxbox man pages.
<11> alright
<12> how do I make a comment in a fluxbox style file?
<13> everything that is not a style elememt will not be touched. so basicly all that is !style is a comment
<13> you can use # or ! to make it visible
<4> # comment
<4> or ! comment
<13> or whatever you prefer
<12> ok, thanks
<12> hmm.. it can't be on the same line though?
<13> nope
<14> ,style
<2> ,styles
<3> get fluxbox styles from http://boxwhore.org | http://tenr.de | http://dugnet.com/klown/wallpaper/thumbs.php?dir=_themes/_fluxbox | http://browse.deviantart.com/skins/themes/fluxbox/ | http://mirror.usu.edu/mirrors/gentoo/distfiles/fluxbox-styles-fluxmod-20050128.tar.bz2
<14> Thanks :-)
<12> when I run `fc-cache -fv | grep artwiz` I get:
<12> fc-cache: "/usr/share/fonts/artwiz": caching, 0 fonts, 0 dirs
<12> fc-cache: "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/artwiz": caching, 0 fonts, 0 dirs
<12> but the actual directory contains a bunch of .pcs.gz files
<12> but anyway, styles which use artwiz aren't working
<12> and.. I can see the artwiz fonts in xfontsel.. anyone have a clue at what else I should check?
<13> yu can see the fonts in 'xfontsel', then use the line this app provides and put it in the style
<15> tell me how can my screen do blank if I did "xset off"
<15> or xset s off
<13> set it on?
<15> why? :P I want my screen saverto be off
<15> By blank I mean when screen "goes off"
<15> or blank how do you wanna say it
<13> again what do you want to do?
<13> you mean get you screen instantly go off after you eg hit a key?
<13> well, i'd say yes. 'xset dpms force off'
<13> this is what you want i ***ume
<15> http://pastebin.ca/90145 <- does that mean that screen blanking is off?
<15> tenner: turn screen blank off...
<15> tenner: :O dpms it is
<13> 'xset s off' <--- set this and you screen will not go blank
<15> lol
<15> :D I was wondering what is "dpms"
<15> seems like I had that option in xorg.conf
<15> commented it let's see what happens ;)
<13> /join #xorg
<13> or read the manuals
<13> can be very helpful
<15> ;) reading is time taking
<15> I prefer "ctrl + f"
<16> reading maybe time taking, but patience is a virtue
<17> ,tabs
<3> tabs allow to group some windows together. in fluxbox-0.1.14 tabs appear outside the window, since fluxbox-0.9.3 tabs are embedded in the titlebar. to group them, drag the titlebar with the middle mousebutton onto another window and .. voila.screenshots are available on http://fluxbox.org/version-0.9.php Since SVN 4265 external tabs are back in fluxbox as an option
<17> Hi to everybody :-) I've just compiled and installed 1.0rc2. Everything is ok, but I've a problem with tabs that I can't solve. I've googled a lot and tried different init/style configuration but I'm not able to solve my problem. I can make verical tabs work only in the right side of the window, because if I use them on the left side the text is shifted left and is almost not visible. Furthermore I can't get r
<17> otated text. Tnx in advance for any pointer to a solution. By, Gabriele
<13> gabriele: get svn, works here
<17> Thanks tenner, where can I get svn? I've searched all the site but did't find the link!
<13> ,svn
<3> checkout: svn checkout svn://svn.berlios.de/fluxbox/trunk fluxbox && cd fluxbox && ./autogen.sh ... to update: cd fluxbox && svn update
<13> ,subversion
<3> subversion is here: http://subversion.tigris.org/
<17> Thanks a lot! I'll give it a try. Bye and thanks again :-)
<13> np
<18> How do i start Firestarter through the menu? I just get this popup saying that i need to be root.
<19> with sudo
<19> or su -
<18> "[exec] (Synaptic) {sudo synaptic}" then? O.o
