Ray's "first draft to a window manager how-to" did (finally!) give me some insight. (I would like to go longer in reading and putting other bits and pieces in there too - just haven*'t got the time right now, woner when ever...)
Practical question: is it possible, and how then, to run X and some application in it at a very "low level", for instance _without_ as much as could be cut off from the libraries (both Gtk and Qt) needed for the "higher level" managers/desktops ? And how to de-install these latter cleanly without creating new problems ? (The problem I have with that SCSI device and the application for it is not the deveice's functioning, which works Ok., but this application's screen GUI - it's definitely some conflict there with both Gtk and Qt "families", i.e. using either KDE or Gnome. The one occasion it did run well was with a "just window maker" install of X. Thus banning the additional presence of those Gnome/KDE could perhaps avoid that collision, whatever it is.) // Heimo Claasen // <hammer at revobild dot net> // Brussels 2002-10-23 The WebPlace of ReRead - and much to read ==> http://www.revobild.net - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-newbie" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.linux-learn.org/faqs
