<0> Will it matter than I doing this with version 0.9.14?
<1> no
<1> though of course we recommend getting the latest one
<0> its compiling now. BTW, thanks for the help
<0> _markt: well, I probably will if this works...
<0> damn, that was the easiest large scale compile I have ever done...
<0> Well this is weird...
<0> let me try this with the latest source....
<0> You think I should try to release candidates or just test the stable source?
<1> release candidates
<0> ok...
<2> is there a dockable audio mixer for fluxbox? at least, let's say, we can click to mute or unmute the audio...hehe
<1> ,dockapps
<3> if u ever wondered what are those small icons on the desktop as seen in such screenshots, go to http://www.dockapps.org/ and/or http://www.bensinclair.com/dockapp/ to find out more ...
<2> great! thanks....
<2> hmm... second link broken?
<1> could be; I don't think it's been updated in ages
<0> So, I have compiled and installed fluxbox now, but I have no windows management...
<2> _markt: btw, http://www.dockapps.org/ listed are wm, how do i make them for fluxbox?
<0> The window borders and taskbar do completely transparent... though I can still click on them and use them
<1> they should just work with fluxbox
<1> you can also use kde dockapps with fluxbox
<1> SadaraX_: I have no idea how to get fluxbox running on your system; how did you do it in the first place?
<2> good good, thanks...
<0> I use Ubuntu, so I just used apt-get install fluxbox...
<0> which grabbed version 0.9.14 from the repository servers and installed onto my system
<0> Then I can run it within a VNC session
<1> ok, you probably need to change some file somewhere to tell it to use the new version
<0> Yeah, I just did apt-get remove fluxbox to remove the old version, then I did 'make install' on the newly compiled source
<1> fbot: no, dockapps is <reply> to find dockapps for fluxbox, check out http://www.dockapps.org/ for a bunch of them
<3> okay then :)
<1> ok, well, see what happens if you run fluxbox
<0> alright...
<4> hi
<0> javiolo: hello
<0> _markt: the compile process did not report anything when it worked, but does Fluxbox require any sort of extra things to run or compile properly?
<1> no
<0> alright, well i am trying to install an unaltered copy of fluxbox...
<0> i will see if that works
<4> whats the problem ?
<0> when I start fluxbox (which I just compiled and installed) my window borders and taskbar are not there
<0> and the mouse menu is completely blank (though it seems to still have entries)
<0> I can still click and move the windows around though...
<0> so maybe its a style/theme thing...
<4> you tried a stlye or its just the default style ?
<0> I am not sure what you mean...
<4> you changed the style on fluxbox ?
<0> I did, how do I can I make it default...
<0> Normally, I would just use the menu, but its unreadable...
<4> yes
<4> dont know
<0> _markt: Ok, so the problem was that my style/theme somehow went missing. I nuked my ~/.fluxbox directory, restarted fluxbox and everything looks good
<1> hehe
<0> _markt: now I will try using that modified code version...
<5> Can anyone tell me the difference in the keycommands between Minimize, MinimizeWindow and Iconify? The same with Maximize and MaximizeWindow. Are they left off just to be backwards compatibility or is there a real difference?
<1> all the same
<5> ah ha
<1> else if (command == "minimizewindow" || command == "minimize" || command == "iconify")
<1> return new CurrentWindowCmd(&FluxboxWindow::iconify);
<5> In some ways, this seems a bit redundant
<1> it's completely redundant
<0> _markt: well, modifying ToolFactory.cc did not work, but it did not break anything
<1> SadaraX_: you have to add the tool to your init file
<0> brb
<1> under session.screen0.toolbar.tools, add rootmenu
<6> hi all, i am new to fluxbox and like it so far :) my question is how do i creat desktop icons, i have idesk installed
<1> ,idesk
<3> idesk is an application which drops icons onto your desktop. Check http://errr-online.com/content.php?article.1 for a Tutorial http://sourceforge.net/projects/idesk/ for more info. maybe that one too: http://idesklinker.sourceforge.net/
<6> hi all i am trying to use ideskool and am getting this error, /usr/bin/idesktool: line 472: /home/chuck/.idesktop/checklist.tmp.5122: Permission denied anyone know what i missed or give me a hand?
<6> the file in question doesnt exist
<6> hiya Lagersp
<7> CRB_GR: what does this have to do with fluxbox again?
<7> if you get errors in firefox do you ask in #gimp too?
<6> i am atempting to add icons to fluxbox and someone here said use it
<7> well, that doesn# 't mean it is supported in here
<6> well i didnt think my asking would mess up the fl;ow of the conversation so i took a chance
<6> and adding icons to flux is part of flux isnt it?
<7> no
<7> it is a third party app
<6> so there is no way in flux to add icons?
<7> use idesk if you want
<7> all i say is "the first place for your questions regarding idesk is NOT fluxbox"
<6> i tried that first, would you like to help me troubleshoot that?
<6> tenner, where would be a better place?
<7> btw, permission problems usually are based in wrong permissions. ever wasted a thought on that?
<6> tenner, sure if the file actually existed i would have changed the permissions
<7> try as (one time) as root
<6> ran but did nothing
<7> and after that change the permission of that file the error message points to
<7> then you messed up idesk
<6> probably
<7> did you follow this http://fluxbox-wiki.org/index.php/Howto_idesk ?
<6> ]$ idesk
<6> Idesk starting in :0.0
<6> [idesk] Background's file not found.
<6> [idesk] Background's source not found
<6> tenner, yes i followed that, here is the out put when i run idesk
<7> no idea
<8> why when i start fluxbox with running the command fluxbox does it not read the fluxbox startup file?
<8> but when i use startflux it does
<7> you need to start with 'startfluxbox'
<7> as you said
<9> that's not what the current manpage for fluxbox states, fwiw
<10> hey fellas, ive been looking for a fluxbox style that was on the old fluxmod.dk site called aero
<10> would anyone know where i could find that?
<8> you cant set it up to work with just "fluxbox"
<7> ,newman
<3> for the latest fluxbox documentation please check http://tinyurl.com/lnu93
<7> damog: ^
<9> Good.
<7> twiggz: so?
<10> so..i asked a question.
<7> cracko: no
<10> do you know where to find it or not? dont be a cock.
<7> twiggz: i meant one second
<8> thats to bad
<11> cracko: why is it so bad?
<8> whats the point in it?
<11> fluxbox is a window manager it doesnt need to read some startup file
<10> lol @ domain for sale @ fluxmod.dk
<11> whats the point in making it read a file it doesnt need?
<8> idk
<10> yea...someone other than a flux developer wants that site...
<10> domain*
<11> my fluxbox domain gets way more traffic than fluxmod.dk
<10> errr: i bet it does these days.
<9> errr: why it is not needed?
<11> damog: what are you talking about?
<11> twiggz: I bet even at fluxmod prime mine gets more
<12> I need some help with a editing my menu and a wine entry, I hope somebody can help.
<9> errr: the startup file
<11> damog: what about it?
<9> nevermind
<11> Rug: check the wiki
<11> the fluxbox menu syntax is explained fully there
<11> ,wiki
<3> go check the wiki at http://fluxbox-wiki.org/
<12> It wine in particular I need the help with, I have edited my menu quite easily thanks.
<11> Rug: then break out your question...
<12> I can run my wine app if I cd to the app's dir and then run it, but I can't get it to run if I type it out fully: wine "/path/to/app/app.exe" does not work, hence it doens't work within fluxbox's menu
<11> [exec] (lame windows app) {cd path/to/app;wine app.exe}
<12> errr: very cool, thanks
<11> oh it worked?
<12> give me a sec..
<9> wine path/to/app/app.exe
<11> damog: he just said that didnt work
<7> twiggz: nope, was not in the fluxbod packege and i dont recall a fluxmod style called "aero". i know it from metacity or icewm though
<7> *fluxmod
<12> errr: yupp, that worked perfectly
<11> ok cool
<7> twiggz: wait...aeroflux it was called. hold on
