Re: Virtual Desktop in X HELP
Rick Smith wrote: Hi As you will get form this I am definatley a NEWBIE, I am having a problem shutting off the Virtual desktop in X I just want all my desktop in one viewing area... I am running a Diamond 3d2000 and a Princeton monitor (ultra 15) amd I am using th eSVGA Xserver.. All help will be greatley appreciated! Rick Smith -- Unsubscribe? mail -s unsubscribe [EMAIL PROTECTED] /dev/null I think hat you want to do is edit our XF86Config File (find it in /etc/X11). You need to find the 'screen' section. In this section there is a subsection for each colour depth (eg, 8, 15 and 16 bpp etc.). For each of the colour depths thee will be a line that says 'virtual 1024 768'. The numbers may be different in your case, but they are what you want to change. Set the Virtual size to the largest size listed on the Modes line and that should give you what you want. You can also change modes by pressing 'Ctrl Alt +or-' , but use the + and - keys on the number pad. Hope this helps. -- Unsubscribe? mail -s unsubscribe [EMAIL PROTECTED] /dev/null
Re: Printing problems
Ian Lynagh wrote: Hi all! I was wondering if anyone could help me resolve a printing prblem I have got? I have an HP LaserJet 4L. If I do lpr textfile.txt then it works fine.

I had the same problem when using the 'lprng' package. I switched back to the regular 'lpr' and the problem was solved. Its kind of a lame way to fix it but it works. If you need to keep 'lprng' then there is another package for HP printers called 'cti-ifhp' (I think) that might help. Mark. -- Unsubscribe? mail -s unsubscribe [EMAIL PROTECTED] /dev/null

I looked in my window-managers file and all of them are listed, how come it doesn't start any?? Thanks for your help.. hmmm wmaker is your default? try commenting out wmaker. If that works...try this: move the GNUstep directory in your home drive to a new name. then try...wmaker will recreate its standard GNUstep dir... I found that I many times set somethin in wmaker and next thing I knew wmaker wouldn't run anymore...in fact...all I got was twm (which afaik isn't even listed in my window-managers file... I hate twm) maybe this will fix it? give it a try course...I went back to fvwm2 last nnight...I find I prefer fvwm2 with tkdesk to wmaker Sorry that didn't work. It would be really nice to have X start a window manager for me again. I've also had problems trying to get out of X (because the WM didn't 'hook' into it correctly. When I use the really quit command in FVWM2 I just loose the window manager X doesn't shut-down!) I also didn't know if you noticed that I have NO window manager when I start-up X. Do you have a file /etc/X11/Xsession? it should say that if all else fails then use twm. Its sounds like this worked before. Also, what is in your ~/.xinitrc and/or ~/.xsession files? (if you have them). If you want FVWM2 then try putting exec /usr/X11R6/bin/fvwm2 in one of these files (I think they need to be shell scripts, so put #!/bin/sh at the start). Don't use an , that way when you quit fvwm2, X will also quit. But if you have the fvwm2 package installed then /etc/X11/Xsession should find it in the window-managers file. I just had the same trouble with afterstep not using the window-managers file and resorted to using the ~/.xsession file method. Mark. -- Unsubscribe? mail -s unsubscribe [EMAIL PROTECTED] /dev/null

Nasty hack:
put the following in the last line of ~/.tkdesk/AppBar:

You right :) it is nasty...
I think there is actually a setting in the browser somewhere...
File:Configuration:Appbar:Hide Appbar
I think have a look. I use kfm now :)
