Re: [e-users] Bling Bug
Thanks for the bug report. The module is currently quite naive with respect to screens and will always reference the default (first) screen and draw on a single root window. Hopefully I can fix this soon. Ibukun I know it is still VERY Beta but I wanted to give some feedback. I have a dual display monitor (No Xinerama) and any apps I open in the second display the shadows and fading occur on the first display. No crashes as of yet though! I have the same issue with the dialog boxes of the shelf and other modules if I right click on them on the second display their menus appear on the first display. Everything works correctly on the first display (obviously). Thanks for all of the hard work developers! Robert - Using Tomcat but need to do more? Need to support web services, security?

I am new at this development thing, so I won't be able to give much in the way of guidance but would gladly be an indian and listen and do what the chiefs suggest. well at this stage it's probably a question of - either if we make it compatible with a dist - example, make it based on debian and use .deb's then it will just be a specific fork of debian's base and we can apt-get install the rest. do we build off RH/fedora? or mandrake? or do we simply examine dists and DIY Mandrake is loaded w/ problems,... Besides Mandrake was build out of RH. So if we want to build a RH-based distro, why not take RH itself? :-p This is a common misconception. Mandrake is not loaded with problems, and no, Mandrake is NOT a RH-based distro (at least not any more). Mandrake is actually very sleek with installation and ease of use, and has better/more user-friendly administration tools than Red Hat. In addition, Mandrake has urpmi for package management -- you have to use it to believe it. Apt4rpm, on the other hand, is a hack, while urpmi is a true rpm-based automatic dependency-resolving package installer that is even easier to use than apt-get (as hard as that is to believe). That said, I am welcome to the idea of building from ground up so that we can make this as lean and mean as we possibly can. However, some of these distributions (MandrakeMove, Knoppix notably) have LiveCD and package management technology that we will find useful in the process, even though they could also use a lot of optimizing. Finally, while Eunuchs was sort of a joke (I wasn't surprised by the response), we do need to settle on a name for it. Ben's project names list posted to e-devel a few months back provides some excellent choices. Once there is a name, we can open an SF project and get the ball rolling. -- Ibukun Olumuyiwa http://xcomputerman.com Wisdom is the principal thing; therefore get wisdom: and with all thy getting get understanding. - Proverbs 4:7 --- SF.Net is sponsored by: Speed Start Your Linux Apps Now.

In my attempts to make edje work on DirectFB I did what Ive been waiting a long time for: use Edje to get some sweeet looking bootup graphics 2 seconds after linux boots up (yes, that's actually 2 seconds!). I'm hoping this will spark some interest in getting involved with improving DirectFB - Evas/Ecore/Edje compatability/bindings. The screenshot is posted on the (under development, yet soon there) new DirectFB website: http://tolva.shacknet.nu/screenshots.php?id=20 Description of the screenshot: A test app with smooth animations and effects running 2 seconds after linux boots. It is started from an initrd with DirectFB, Evas, Ecore, and Edje. The initrd image is roughly 3800kb. Graphics card is radeon 9600XT with 256MB ram however it is slow since the directfb radeon driver cant yet accelerate the argb surfaces that evas uses. Whenever the radeon driver in DirectFB can render argb surfaces hardware accelerated it will be LIGHTNING fast :) Oh did I mention the app itself is 75 lines of code..! ;) altough the .eet file describing the graphics and animation is 798 lines (created by The Rasterman - www.rasterman.com) Awesome ... one piece in my evil plan for the Eunuchs LiveCD distribution manifests into reality... -- Ibukun Olumuyiwa http://xcomputerman.com Wisdom is the principal thing; therefore get wisdom: and with all thy getting get understanding. - Proverbs 4:7 --- SF.Net is sponsored by: Speed Start Your Linux Apps Now.

Works OK, would be nice to have an Enlightenment based distro. It is still kind of a rough hack (using it as window manager under gtk2 desktop). 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) :) Hmm...I didn't realize this discussion was already brewing on e-users. I am very interested at this point in creating an E-based distro/liveCD -- mostly out of frustration working with the various retarded Unix WMs I have to use at work. At this point the tentative plan is to take MandrakeMove (I chose it over Knoppix because it has better/more user-friendly administration tools) and strip it down to a bare minimum, then tack on the E suite and add a few absolutely necessary packages, and finish off with a nice graphical bootup that hands over to Entrance. If there is sufficient support for this I'll start up a new project on SF to begin. Proposed codename is Eunuchs (pronounced Unix, of course). Because everyone knows I'm a genius when it comes to naming projects. :) -- Ibukun Olumuyiwa http://xcomputerman.com Wisdom is the principal thing; therefore get wisdom: and with all thy getting get understanding. - Proverbs 4:7 --- SF.Net is sponsored by: Speed Start Your Linux Apps Now.

Your reply was pretty lame Hallvar offered to *help* you and all you said was that it's ALPHA software, you're on your own, and so on. Why do you have it available then ?? For people to use or for people to help you code it ?? Again, Hallvar offered to help you and you blew him off. First off, go back and read my repliy and you'll notice I put a smiley at the end of that statement so that you would realize it was a lighthearted comment -- I guess you'd be humor challenged not to realize that blow up your hard drive was a joke. Secondly, a lot of the session handling code is still under development and as a matter of fact we're still discussing the best way to implement them, so don't start to cry a river if I refuse to attend to a particular user's problems at this point. And don't send me a nastygram just because I didn't either. And one more thing -- if you wish to assist the development effort, send messages to enlightenment-devel or mail me privately. Don't expect developers to discuss development issues on the e-users list: entrance is NOT for regular users and has not been released as such.
