FVWM: Thinking of adding to my desktop

2007-09-02 Thread Tim Hanson
I don't really have a fancy setup. I'm using three rows and eight columns of FvwmButtons as my main menu tree. I have swallowed xosview, pager, and xdaliclock. I don't spend much time on my desktop. It just works, and that has been good enough for me for several years. However, I have been

I'm trying to find a way to get a background on a remote desktop through vnc. I am accessing my laptop through my desktop. FVWM comes up fine, but the background I have on the laptop doesn't show. Instead I get a gray screen. I have been through the fvwm-root man page and FvwmBacker. I

FVWM: multiple sessions - xscreensaver

2005-03-24 Thread Tim Hanson
I am a vnc user and have all remote sessions run FVWM. I have controlled xscreensaver from .fvwm2rc since I started using FVWM years ago. Now, xscreensaver loads (inappropriately) in every vnc session. How do I make FVWM start xscreensaver only on screen :0? -- Visit the official FVWM web

I'm trying to figure out something for my laptop. It has two environments: One is hooked to the home network, where it has a ready source of power, access to nfs directories on two desktops, and can serve vnc to those machines. The other is as a standalone, sometimes with a wireless hook to the

Alas, it's ACPI. It's a shame, because xosview has a prominent place in my FvwmButtons display. That also takes out xapm and others. I wonder if GNOME has something. On Thu, 2005-02-24 at 15:09 +0100, Philipp Tölke wrote: -BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 Tim Hanson wrote

FVWM: Key bindings not working

2002-11-28 Thread Tim Hanson
My root window key bindings have never worked. This is the set of bindings currently shipped with SuSE, with the exception of PointerKey instead of Key, because I'm using SloppyFocus. These bindings didn't work with Key either. Mouse bindings work fine. I looked at the header file for keys,

FVWM: Nautilus problems

2002-10-13 Thread Tim Hanson
I guess this is an FVWM question only indirectly. I've been a long time user of SuSE, which is (happily) still bundling FVWM in the distro. I'm trying to get away from TkDesk, which is getting dated and is no longer maintained. I was looking at Nautilus, but running it loads most if not all

2002-06-01 Thread Tim Hanson
I confess that I'm using the standard FVWM2 that came with SuSE 7.1, so I don't have the current program, but I have resisted moving to either the standard GNOME or KDE desktops because of familiarity and the small footprint of FVWM. SUSE 8 is on the way in the mail. Is there a utility which
