Yo, As I've noticed it's not easy to get the very nice iconbar working in e17. It requiers cp'ing files , makeing various dir's in ~/.e/ and checking for icons. I would suggest that mandrake has a seperate iconbar.rpm . As for usability for a user. I know it's in enlightenment.rpm but prolly nobody will know about it. This iconbar is animated and is _pure_eye_candy_ .
see => http://www.rephorm.com/rephorm/img/iconbar.png and => http://www.xcomputerman.com/albums/screenshots/aaq.png <- on the left I could use some help scripting a configure. what it should be doing is : mkdir ~/.e/desktop/0/ mkdir ~/.e/desktop/1/ mkdir ~/.e/desktop/2/ mkdir ~/.e/desktop/3/ mkdir ~/.e/desktop/4/ mkdir ~/.e/desktop/5/ mkdir ~/.e/desktop/6/ mkdir ~/.e/desktop/7/ (as there are 8 desktops) mkdir ~/bin/ cp /usr/local/share/enlightenment/data/scripts/build_iconbar_db.sh ( ~/bin/build_iconbar_db.sh should be edited to mandrake's default icon's path ) then : sh ~/bin/build_iconbar_db.sh ~/.e/desktop/0/.e_layout sh ~/bin/build_iconbar_db.sh ~/.e/desktop/1/.e_layout .. .. up to desktop 7 that's it. Iconbar works. These steps , setting up a user env for e17 will be needed later for other tuning. Like window borders , backgrounds, theme-rpm's , bits , . Thx in advace, Fernagut thibaut, Blokkie
