 Hi there,

 Sorry if this is a go and look in google type question -- it's proven
 quite hard to search for something.

 I'm looking for a program for producing screenshots in enlightenment.

Re: [e-users] distrobutions

2004-02-26 Thread Dhruba Bandopadhyay

quote who=Carsten Haitzler
 if i had the time... i'd do a distro. just for myself of all people! :)
 i'd love
 to actually do a distro that's stripped down - no apache no mysql no
 openldap in fact no gimp, etc. basically just what u need to install,
 log in,
 and run a terminal, download some files, maybe browse a website or 3, read
 e-mail. all things like gimp would be add-on packages (of course an easy
 to
 use package fetcher would be included), but all of this is a side-line.
 i'd like
 to make it ULTRA FAST to boot. make it boot in about 3-5 seconds to your
 login
 manager. this is perfectly possible. in fact it can be done in under
 seconds if
 you REALLY want (it's been done) :)

Many including me use Gentoo which fulfil above requirements for precisely
those reasons.  The bare time to boot has been 10-15 seconds before I
added cups, apache and other stuff to run levels.  And that's with
framebuffer and bootsplash.  See here for example.

Thanks for input.  I upgraded from 0.4.7 to 0.4.8 of ffmpeg on gentoo as you

 Install EDB.

I thought I had edb installed.  Anyway, I reinstalled edb from cvs (which
went fine) and tried again but same make error (eplayer2) reoccurred. 
Does edb or eplayer need any special configure options?

You were more lucky than me!
I updated my cvs tree this afternoon, then everything compiled until 
ecore. Then I deleted the tree, and got a complete new copy - that did 
the trick: ecore compiled, and everything went smooth until ewl (the 
last lib). Grr... Many warnings from autogen and a fatal error in configure.
Read e17/libs/edje/README and recompile packages it mentions using the 
configure parameters that it gives you.  In my case, that was the key to 
succeeding with previously failing packages.

checked out everything that was E related just before compilation.  However, 
I would not suggest that one rely on gentoo packages for E-cvs related stuff

Re: [e-users] Loading of special fonts for new 16.6 themes?

2003-11-16 Thread Dhruba Bandopadhyay
John C wrote:
question, is there any specific configuration file to edit to have 
access to the fonts I just extracted from the tarball?
Thanks for posting the themes and fonts, but I'm not quite sure I know 
how to have access to the fonts, although I know E will find the themes 
right away...
Thanks, John C.
The tarball produces a folder called myfonts containing all the fonts.  Move 
that folder to where your X server stores fonts and add that location or 
fontpath to your /etc/X11/XF86Config[-4].  This location may be something 
like those below.

/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/
/usr/share/fonts/
Then go into the directory 'myfonts' and run `mkfontdir` and `mkfontscale` 
and restart your XServer to load new fonts.  Now view the file fonts.dir in 
the 'myfonts' folder.  The second column for each line contains the keyword 
that you must feed to Eterm.  So for the line which says 'mints-mild.pcf.gz 
mints-mild' you can do `Eterm -F mints-mild` to get Eterm to use that font. 
 You can of course combine that with other parameters to Eterm to produce 
the desired effect.

Thanks to Didier Casse's message on the online mailing list archive for 
helping me get this working in the first instance.

HTH.

Dhruba.

[e-users] Openoffice to Enlightenment Menu Creator

2003-11-13 Thread Dhruba Bandopadhyay
Hello

Since I've always found it a hassle to create the umpteen number of menu 
items manually for all the OpenOffice executables, some time back, I made a 
bash script which did all the hard work for me.  Now that I have some time 
I'm sharing it with the list.  The script can be found on the following link 
and instructions are inside.  Basically, just give it your OO directory and 
run it.

Thanks a lot Hall.  In fact, I searched and download about 27 different 
fonts and tried them all!  My favourite is currently lime.pcf which is used 
on many theme screenshots on tokyo.cored.org.

In case, anyone wants a tarball of all the fonts or a tarball of all themes 
on tokyo.cored.org in non etheme format just let me know.

The etheme format really screwed things up for me.  I had to load a theme in 
etheme format and then once E had produced a corrupt appearance and 
extracted the etheme I would have to reorganise the extracted directories 
and restart X.  I much prefer .tar.gz over .etheme unless I'm doing 
something horribly wrong.  What is the proper way to use them?  I just put 
them in ~/.enlightenment/themes/, reload E and run the theme but that 
doesn't work.  It does extract the theme into its own dir often with a 
subdir that actually contains the data.

Sorry I forgot to answer the other questions.  To get rid of the top bar go 
into special fx settings (right click on desktop) and uncheck 'show desktop

to make it disappear?

Themes with extension etheme can be treated like any other theme.  Create
a sub-directory for them (~/.enlightenment/themes/subdir/), restart E and
select the theme.  E will automatically extract that file into its
