make rpm-dist and deb-dist both fail with the same error

 Anyway, if you rerun make deb-dist release=1 that disables some

 That's my point too.
 
 Thanks for that feedback.

I would prefer there was a link or button beside each logo individually
on the normal pages that display each logo full size. The smaller
thumbnails confuse me, and having to vote for too many logos at once,
seems too time consuming and a bit of a hassle. This would therefore
tend to discourage some people from providing the very input you want.

It should be possible to just vote for one or two logos you like, or
more, up to a certain specified limit (say 20 total).

Just my humble opinion of course.

As an afterthought, I think having a Dont like! button as well, may be
a helpful guide too. It may help to weed out the logos users definately
do not want.

All votes for and against should remain purely voluntary of coure.

Alex

P.S. The problem then is how to authenticate the user's email address,
which may be resolved by adding it as a parameter to enter the logo
competition pages, since all submissions are now closed.

  Because the gain you get for the additional size is close to zero.
  It's against the philosophy fvwm development always hung on to.
 
 Well, for me it is vice versa, the gain is big (more happy users) and the
 cost is close to zero (we already build in a logo in several variants).
 But I don't want to force it.
 

How about including new banners in an updated fvwm-icons package? Then

 I think Mikhael is trying to upgrade the builtin banner
 which I think is a good idea.
 
 I also agree with Dominik, we should strive to
 keep the base package as small as possible.
 

I agree with both of them too, but I thought the disagreement was about

 Netscape 4.79 has some problems rendering complex tables but

 Maybe libjpeg or something like this.

Yes. The other web page themes work fine. It seems to only be the

A broken library is something I hadn't thought of. But this is the only

Problems displaying the birthday pages.

2003-05-30 Thread Alex Wallis
I'm resending this a second time, as it doesn't seem to have reached the
list. Are 80Kb jpg attachments considered as spam?

It may just be me, but I suspect the background picture for the birthday
pages is doing some really evil and wicked things to my X server. I've
tried to attach a screenshot to give an idea of what I'm seeing (or not
seeing
as the case may be).  :( But since that failed I've put it on my web
server at http://awol.no-ip.org/bad-bleah.jpg

I also had a similar reaction to Uwe's demo pages on his server so it
must be something to do with the code and my choice of browser (Netscape
4.79). Nope! I just tried it with Mozilla too and I get the same thing
happening. 

Maybe it's my X server? Or my xinerama?

I'm using RH9 and XFree86 4.3.0. It would seem to be the code for the
pages window borders at a guess. Dunno.

Anyone else see this?


Alex

P.S. Since I sent this email the first time, many changes have been made
on the web site. All of the birthday decorated pages mess up my X server
very badly indeed. No other web site ever does this to me at all.

Re: fvwm license going to be revoked

2003-03-20 Thread Alex Wallis
Please let me apologise in advance for the controversial political
statements contained within this posting, and for any offence that I may
cause to others by the inappropriateness of my comments. As has already
been pointed out in an earlier thread, it really should not be discussed
here in this forum.

Dominik Vogt wrote:
 
 Let me make some comments to the issues that have come up.
 
  1) My motivation is by no means political.  It is solely based on
 moral.  I can not bear that my work is misused to kill people.
 I do not mean to punish or antagonise anybody, but I am trying
 to save myself.
 

I applaud and admire your strength in having the courage to stand by
your convictions. I have often wondered how many open source software
development projects have been unknowingly contributing to the
persecution, torture, rape, and murder of millions of innocent civilians
by oppressive ruthless despotic regimes, or even secretive terrorist
organisations, but I guess there's no real way to tell is there?

Personally I would also include media organisations as they seem to be
gaining greater benefits from this unjust war than anybody. It has
been in their own interests to fan the flames of protest and dissent,
and distort the facts with hypothesis and hyperbole in the guise of
information, and thereby knowingly participate in the distribution of
propaganda from all aspects of the discussions now taking place. Is
there anything the media empires wont do for a headline?

  2) I am fully aware that such a change of the license will make
 it impossible to ship fvwm as part of Debian and other Linux
 distributions.
 

And thereby alienate more distributions and further contribute to the
demise of fvwm's popularity.

  3) Given the results of similar wars in the past, I do not think
 the license will last only for a short period of time, but for
 years (i.e. many thousand civilians killed, like in
 Afghanistan, Kosovo, etc.).
 

Given the recent advancements in modern warfare technology I don't think
any comparisons with other conflicts can be justified as being valid. 
In Afghanistan (the most recent) the terrain and tactics were entirely
different, and there was no clear distinctive method of identifying the
enemy as they wore civilian clothes and often (and possibly still do)
posed as innocent civilians. 
In Kosovo the practice of ethnic cleansing was a primary motivation for
U.N. intervention. In both conflicts widespread civilian casualties were
the direct result of the actions of the original aggressors, which is
apparently what Saddam also intends by strategically placing as many
military targets as possible behind innocent human shields, and thereby
invoking world wide outrage at the high cost of collateral damage.

Having said that however, it does nobody any good to expect or theorise
what the outcome will be. Only time will tell, and history will be the
final judge.

  4) I am thinking about allowing to buy the right to use fvwm by
 making a donation to one of the mentioned non-government
 organisations, for example Amnesty International.  I assume
 that nobody accepting or helping the war will do this.  I trust
 people's common sense when they decide the actual sum to
 donate (of course other forms of donations are accepted too).
 

This may actually be a good idea in peace time as well as in war. A
donation to any charitable organisation is surely welcome always.

  5) Determining a way how the license can cooexist with the GPL is
 a very delicate matter.  It will take time to write down a
 water-proof license.
 

You may not have as much time as you think to decide this as most
analysts predict a short war (whatever that means).

  6) In case I can not find a license I currently see the only the
 option to completely cease contributing to the open source
 community.
 

This would most certainly be a great loss indeed. Your insights and
contributions have been considerable, and I am convinced that fvwm in
particular would not be the outstanding example of the achievements of
co-operative open source software development that it is today, without
the benefit of your wisdom and guidance over the many years of
leadership that you have given freely and generously, without thought of
reward or recompense. Whatever your decision may be, I sincerely wish
you well.

 Thank everybody for the comments.  I *am* listening to all
 complaints, suggestions, etc.

New redhat has changed rpm -ba options

2002-11-20 Thread Alex Wallis
I'd just like to point out that the new redhat 8.0 has separated the rpm
--build option into it's own rpmbuild binary, and thus make rpm-dist
fails when trying to build rpm's of fvwm on a redhat 8.0 machine unless
the Makefile has been edited to reflect this change.

 if I comment out the if statments at line 500 and 585 it compiles fine.
 also it works without modifications on another system with libstroke.
 

On my new redhat 8.0 system I got exactly the same errors (from current
cvs) until I installed the libstroke package from tarball source, then
it compiles fine! I suspect there's only a problem if you don't have
libstroke.

Yes it's happening for me too. Not only that but on my triple-head
xinerama setup all menus and even the windowlist only popup on the
leftmost screen. And quickly single clicking the Window-Ops menu on
button 1 of any window automatically closes it as well. Very annoying,
but that's what you get when you run bleeding edge cvs!  ;-P

I'm sure it will be fixed soon.

I'm not entirely sure which commit did this. But I just updated from cvs
and now I find the WindowOps menus (I use fvwm-themes) are now no longer
bound to any window but float freely. Also since I have TitleAtLeft and
TitleAtRight options in that menu, I now have to click on the window I
want to apply that style to. Is this the intention now?

Not sure if this is the offending commit but seems likely.

I just updated my cvs and now all my gmc desktop icons have disappeared.
Opening a menu where they should be however leaves part of the menu
behind in the shape of whatever icon should be there though.

   That fix for WindowList works beautifully.
   Any chance you can apply the same principle to the menus that popup when
   you select the More.. option in the window-ops menu with fvwm-themes? On
   the second xinerama screen the MoveToPage, Group Operations, Window
   Style, etc..., menus popup on the primary screen for me.
 
  Can you give exact instructions to reproduce this bug?  For me,
  all continuation menus are placed on the same screen as the
  parent, but I dind't use fvwm-themes.
 
 I may provide the relavant (slightly modified) config, but I have a single
 screen, so I don't know whether it is enough to reproduce the problem.
 

Thanks Mikhael, I saved this config to test-config and tried it with
Restart fvwm -f test-config and it still happens with that. I've been
trying to track down why I'm getting this and all i can come up with is
maybe this line below.

 + More... Alt-F3%menu/window.xpm%  Menu MenuFvwmWindowOps This 0 0
 

I'm not sure if the This 0 0 may have something to do with it. If I
take out the 0 0 the first menu pops up on the secondary screen, but
all child popups appear on primary.
However invoking the menu with Alt-F3 with fvwm-themes all menus work
properly as expected. It only happens when I select the
MenuFvwmWindowOps2 menu from the button 1 on windows. I also get a lot
of these messages too
[FVWM][get_menu_options]: ERROR invalid position arguments
[FVWM][get_menu_options]: ERROR invalid position arguments
[FVWM][get_menu_options]: ERROR invalid position arguments

I get a lot of those when I flip through various menus in the
MenuFvwmWindowOps from More...
This may be an issue with fvwm-themes and not fvwm itself but I'll keep
looking I guess and will let you know if I come up with anything more
informative.

 Did you run automake and autoconf before make dist?  For me, it

I actually had tried autoreconf and automake first, but now that you
mention it, I've just tried everything I can think of, and I've run cvs
update with -A and -P with -R flags even. Still always get the same
error as above.

All the make dist, distcheck, dist2, rpm-dist, etc.. options return
those same errors for me.

  Hello guys,
 
  I am working on a configuration tool for FVWM (and similar WMs). Its called 
  fvwmrcedit
  and is hosted at SourceForge.net (fvwmrcedit.sourceforge.net). It writes 
  and edits fvwmrc
  files and is written using the Xt toolkit and the Athena widget set. I have 
  covered basic
  options to some extent and am now working on editing menus (that part is 
  not complete).
  Hope you guys will have a look at it and try it out. Thanks in advance.
 
 We are definitely interested in such a tool.  I didn't have time
 to look at it yet, but I'll do so as soon as I can.  It would be
 a good idea to join the fvwm-workers mailing and to discuss the
 overall design and how the tool is intended to be integrated with
 fvwm.
 

I'd just like to point out that fvwm already has everything it needs to
create a set of configuration gui's due to Dan's enhancements of the
FvwmForm module to enable them to read  write to file. A couple of
years ago I actually attempted to utilise this method to create a
complete config tool but received very little or no interest.

Eventually I was persuaded to abandon the project in favour of the new
fvwm-themes project, but I'm hoping to now ressurect it to create some
gui config tools for fvwm-themes.

I attach a simple form to configure the FvwmWinList module as an
example. This form is still just an example and should be optimised at
some stage but it works. Invoke it normally as Module FvwmForm
FvwmForm-WinList then once you have saved your settings it should
automatically reload them upon each invocation a la FvwmForm-Form.

This method would enable building a config tool without the need for any
other software other than fvwm itself. Perhaps FvwmScript's capabilities
of swallowing other forms and scripts could be used to keep the suite of
gui's tidy?

 Since screen 1 is bigger in the picture, I guess that it it the
 screen your work on primarily.  It looks as if the button bar
 would fit nicely on screen 1.  Try using

Oh, I just can't draw. Both monitors are at the same size and same res
of 1024x768 at 16 bpp, but the left is a 16M savage4 card and the right
has a 4M ATI card. The left monitor should also be capable of 1600 x
1200, but I haven't figured out how to get it to work with different
sizes.

 
   XineramaPrimaryScreen 1

That fixes the menus on the cde button bar module, but the built-in
WindowList(right click) or windowops menus appear on the left when
right-clicking on the right desktop on Screen0?

Many thanks again. :)

With the most recent cvs I see this too, and also the icon title appears
