Hi, 

Sounds like Xinemera was enabled.
More an Xorg setting that E17 

Don't use Ubuntu, so not sure how you would disable, but if you want to edit 
the /etc/X11/xorg.conf file directly, you will find it in there.

Hi, 

Ntt sure if this will help, but seems problem you have is experienced on 
other display managers / desktops. 

http://www.nvnews.net/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=85795 

Maybe it would help to check all your TwinView settings.

Hope any of this helps.

 In either case at this point, maximizing windows spans both monitors and
 e shelves span both monitors, rather than maximizing only into a single

Re: [e-users] DR17

2007-01-13 Thread lvs
Hi, 

I have been using DR17 for over a year now, and I use it successfully on my 
thinkpad t43 laptop in a corporate environment. 

Works 99%, even with a dual monitor setup. Love the fact that the second 
monitor I connect to my laptop acts as an independant desktop. 

The only two issues I have is that since the last cvs build the screen lock 
no longer accepts my biometric finger scan, so I have to manually type my 
password to unlock, and also that any shelves created can't seem to exist on 
the second desktop/monitor. 

Knowing that a rebuild from CVS could break when I try to do an update 
(which is a problem when trying to meet a deadline), I always keep a spare 4 
gig partition to which I first mirror my base install, and then do the CVS 
build on that. I can then happily dual boot between my stable build and the 
new one, and once I reckon the new one is stable, I move it to my main 
partition. Doing this had always allowed me to keep up to date without the 
worries of breaking my system. 

Personally I think DR17 is stable enough for daily use. 

Randall Svancara writes: 

 I have been monitoring the DR17 project for several years now with

 DR17 compiles and works great.   I am testing it out right now.  I
 realize it is far from complete and very buggy...but it works.  Kudos to
 the development team.   
 
 I look forward to helping out with testing and debugging in the future. 
 
 Thanks,

[e-users] Shelf on 2nd/3rd Desktop

Hi,

Well, as there seems to be a hot discussion about placing stuff on the
desktop/shelves, I just have to ask

How do you get a shelf onto a second desktop instance? I run 3 monitors,
love the fact that each monitor is it's own desktop, but cannot seem to
place any shelving

[e-users] DR17, eterm (cust and paste) and bioapi usage

2006-12-02 Thread lvs

Hi. 

New to this list, but not new to Enlightenment :) 

In the last week I had updated Enlightenment DR17 to the latest CVS. 

Firstly, things are just getting better and better... 

So I Finally decided to dump Konsole and remove all kde-base built packages 
from my system (using gentoo), and move onto eterm 0.9.3 (using screen, and 
the eterm escreen theme). LOVE IT, but ran into one major problem that is 
already causing me grief. 

In Konsole I could highlight text using mouse, right click =, and cut 'n 
paste this to anywhere else. I seem to have lost this ability in eterm. A 
right click just does nothing. 

Anyone know how I can cut text from inside eterm to the XClipboard ? 

The second issue i am having (and this is purely since the latest CVS 
update, is the 'integration' of enlightenments screen saver with password 
lock into the thinkpad t43 bioapi. 

When I try to swipe my finger on the fingerprint reader, nothing happens, 
and I then have to remember my password, and log on manually. (the first 
time was hell, as I had not actually used my manual password logon in over a 
year !) 

The bioAPI system is working fine, and I even re-install the complete 
system, just to be sure, but the issue remained. 

I scanned the log files and get: 

Nov 29 19:39:21 DeepThought pam_bioapi[22095]: Unable to load BioAPI BSP 
with UUID of {5550454b-2054-464d-2f45-535320425350}, BioAPI error #194d. 

Searching the bioAPI resources, I find that error 194d is about permissions 
on the bioapi usb devices in /proc. I know they are correct, as I had double 
checked, and also bioAPI works on everything else (su interminal, sudo etc 
etc). 

Does Enlightenment screen-lock use its own code, or is it something 
X-Related, as XScreensaver needs a patch to make it work with the bioAPI 

I had also seen a lot of users mention that if XScreensaver is set to run 
setuid root, then they get the same issue, so I am thinking that the 
enlightenment screensaver/lock is actually running as another user, and not 
my logged in user ? Anyone know if this is so ? 

Any pointers would be appreciated. 

(I am now looking at the code for screen lock, and the code patch for 
XScreensaver, so see if I cannot see some simalarity, and maybe create a 
patch for Enlightenment screen lock.) 

Regards
Lucas

 Right click being bound to cut or copy violates the standard and is a
 bug in Konsole.  The correct use for right click, which you'll see in
 Eterm, xterm, and most any other terminal, is extend selection.  If
 you have made a selection, for instance back in the scrollback buffer,
 right clicking will extend the selection from the original starting
 point to wherever you right click. 
 
 Eterm automatically copies the selected text to the X PRIMARY
 selection, so no manual copy action is required.  Most applications
 will properly paste this selected text using the middle mouse button.

Re: [e-users] DR17, eterm (cust and paste) and bioapi usage

2006-12-02 Thread lvs
Hi, 

Tried gnome-terminal, even before I started using Konsole, did not like it 
at all, and it has the same problem as Konsole, my main reason for finally 
dumping it - too many dependancies. 

As an example : 

emerge -p konsole 

These are the packages that would be merged, in order:

not tooo bad, takes only a day to compile.

errrm, maybe wait around a 2 to 4 days, depending on how busy my processor 
is with other tasks... 

and finally eterm: 

emerge -p eterm

[ebuild  N] x11-terms/eterm-0.9.3-r4  USE=mmx -escreen -etwin -unicode 

way less than an hour 

and most of all, eterm is fast fast fast, and used in conjuntion with 
screen, tabbed (plus more). 

I try to run as minimalistic as possible, so kde and gnome is out, mostly 
keyboard shortcuts, mouse only when needed.

 I think eterm is very outdated, i am using gnome-terminal, Eterm doesnt 
 support even UTF8 locales. But it has one big advantage, it is very fast, 
 very very fast :)

 Hi.  
 
 New to this list, but not new to Enlightenment :)  
 
 In the last week I had updated Enlightenment DR17 to the latest CVS.  
 
 Firstly, things are just getting better and better...  
 
 So I Finally decided to dump Konsole and remove all kde-base built 
 packages from my system (using gentoo), and move onto eterm 0.9.3 (using 
 screen, and the eterm escreen theme). LOVE IT, but ran into one major 
 problem that is already causing me grief.  
 
 In Konsole I could highlight text using mouse, right click =, and cut 'n 
 paste this to anywhere else. I seem to have lost this ability in eterm. A 
 right click just does nothing.  
 
 Anyone know how I can cut text from inside eterm to the
