Re: Enlightenment and X
Where do you ge those? There aren't any in the Debian package I'm using. I just checked. the epplets can be found on the debian ftp site. the latest version I found is epplets 0.5-2. (from the unstable tree) if you have apt installed you can just call it to get your epplets.

Re: Enlightenment and X
Hello Yet more Qs: 1) How to get the middle mouse working in enlightenment? I had it working under KDE before. (Logitech PS/2 mouse) 2) How do I choose backgrounds from those -theme-whatever packages? They are installed, yet I can't find a way to choose them. It seems I cannot do that in Desktop Background Settings. eterm is really cute. Thanks Sven -- The program required me to install Windows 95 or better ... ... so I installed Linux.
Re: Enlightenment and X
God, sorry this'll be the last time I post another mail on the same topic without waiting for answers. :) 1) Is there any browser I can use in enlightenment? I dont particularly *like* Netscape, so are there any other options? (not lynx - I *need* / want graphics) 2) Is there any way to 'enhance' mutt slightly within X? I mean, do you guys just start it within a console in X or what? Again, thanks. Sven -- L I N U X .~. The Choice /V\ of a GNU /( )\ Generation ^^-^^

Re: Enlightenment and X
Hey Sven, yes Enlightenment ownsif you can get your middle working in E let me know, I have the same ps/2 mouseman + and cant for the life of me get it working in E or any other WM for that matter. For desktop backgrounds drop the jpgs or bmps in ~/.enlightenment/backgrounds...then you can right click and choose desktop options or something and change it there. - Original Message - From: Sven Burgener [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: Debian Users debian-user@lists.debian.org Sent: Tuesday, July 18, 2000 3:13 PM Subject: Re: Enlightenment and X Hello Yet more Qs: 1) How to get the middle mouse working in enlightenment?

I have this script I use to start mutt: #!/bin/sh rxvt +sb -g 80x50 -fg white -bg black -T Mutt -fn \ -jmk-neep-bold-r-normal-*-*-140-*-*-c-*-iso8859-1 -e mutt Call it from windowmanager menus, an alias in my ~/.bashrc and prolly other places too. I would be very surprised if you can't call it from enlightenment too.

Re: Enlightenment .15.x for Slink (and gnome panel problems)
Try using the command ldd `which panel` . This should tell
you which libraries that the panel are looking for. Personally,
I compiled GNOME from source, but used the configure command
'CFLAGS=-O2 ./configure --prefix=/usr/local/gnome which enabled
optimizations without debugging information and put all of the
GNOME stuff in /usr/local/gnome/{bin,lib}. That way when GNOME
packages are released into potato, I can install them and
remove my /usr/local/gnome.

Re: Enlightenment .15.x for Slink (and gnome panel problems)
On 20-Mar-99 [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: deb http://www.debian.org/~bma enlightenment/ Thanks brian. However, when I went in and chose enlightenment to install, some of the dependancies were not available. libgnome32, libgnomesupport0 and libgnomeui32. Does anyone know where to get these packages from? I know that the gnome .debs aren't here yet and I am waiting patiently (please please please), but there are obviously packages available *somewhere* for these libgnome* stuff. On another note... I made the mistake of trying to install gnome-1.0 via source. I compiled and installed only a couple of the librarys packages, and now I'm suddenly not able to run a lot of the gnomeish programs. Running panel gives me a segfault for example, same as gtkicq (though gimp1.1 works fine). With panel if I rename my /usr/local/lib to /usr/local/lib.orig panel will display for a split second and *then* segfault. I've gone and removed all my gtk packages, or anything that remotely needs gtk or any of the gnome stuff, and then went in by hand to /usr/lib, /usr/local/lib and /lib to try to find anything that might be left over from the source code install, and cleaned it. But still no go. I saw in the list archives that someone earlier was having this problem, but I couldn't reach him directly by email. Is this a .deb problem (bleeding edge)? or are there libraries somewhere that I'm not cleaning up. I suck at reading strace output, but if anyone thinks they can figure out what library is conflicting or segfaulting, I'll send them the output :) I'm sure that it is something left over as my panel and gtk stuff was working fine before the source code install.
