How to change Fluxbox resolution?
Hi folks, I've installed FBSD 8.2 and Fluxbox. Fluxbox works just fine, but I can't figure out how to change my resolution to 1024x768 (my monitor is a 19 - but the square format, not widescreen format). When Fluxbox runs...it's too wide for my monitor. Here's what I've done: 1. pkg_add –r xorg 2. pkg_add –r fluxbox 3. # Xorg -configure 4. # cp /root/xorg.conf.new /etc/X11/xorg.conf 5. # echo hald_enable=\”YES\ /etc/rc.conf 6. # echo dbus_enable=\”YES\ /etc/rc.conf 7. reboot 8. # echo “/usr/local/bin/startfluxbox” ~/.xinitrc 9. startx I've edited xorg.conf and added a 1024x768 entry, but apparently something's not right. Comments? Suggestions?

As Frank suggested, check your monitor for an Auto button or analog screen adjustments. If that doesn't fix it, show your xorg.conf. Usually adding a mode to the Screen section should be enough. Even without that, X should read the monitor's native resolution and use it. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org

Possibly install the vmWare video driver from x11-drivers/xf86-video-vmware. /var/log/Xorg.0.log would show what is really happening. It might be as easy as removing the Device section from xorg.conf so it can autodetect the right driver.

See man xrandr for details. Very handy tip!. I had been using FreeBSD on a vmware installation and I couldn't get it bigger than 800x600. vmware has something called Unity which I believe provides some functionality to change the screen size and requires vmware-tools but even though I installed them as per the manual I received errors when starting it (not relating to Unity). It also requires suitable hardware. Overall it was a poor experience. I'd be interested to know of the xrandr entry in ~/.xinitrc works though. jamie ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org

Hello Kenneth, I think you need to run xorgconfig and set the appropriate keyboard when creating xorg.conf. For fluxbox there is however a file called keys in the .fluxbox directory if there is any special character you would want mapped (For FreeBSD you set it with sysinstall but that is not the issue here) /Roger kenneth hatteland skrev: I have read all I can google and the handbook trying to make my norwegian special keys working along with @ amongst others. so something is wrong with my locales.

gdm sessions - xfce + fluxbox
Hello, I would want to have a choice at login time between xfce (my default desktop wm) and fluxbox. I have followed the steps from this document : http://geek00l.blogspot.com/2006/06/freebsd-fluxbox-gdm.html but i did not have the xsessions directory under /usr/X11R6/share/gnome/. so i created one and created another file called Fluxbox.desktop inside it. Then followed the rest of the document as is. Additionally I copied the startfluxbox binary to the ~/.Xclients file under the binary for xfce. What has happened now is that I still dont see no choice under the sessions menu in gdm morever i get logged on to xfce first. Now when I log on from xfce I get logged on to fluxbox meaning the fluxbox desktop may be waiting for the x-resources like the screen, mouse etc to become available and then when it does become available it starts to run. Im rather confused. Please help me with this and perhaps give me some insight as to why it is the wa it is if you can Hope to hear from you fellas -- Best Regards, Aijaz ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

You should also submit a PR requesting that the needed port be added as a dependency for Thunar so others don't have the same problem.

New style with Fluxbox
Hello, Yesterday, i installed by the ports, fluxbox version 0.1.14_2 on my laptop with FreeBSD 6.1. I downloaded a new style called Mysta with theses files: - theme.cfg - pixmaps (button.xpm, menu.xpm and toolbar.xpm) Theses files are in /usr/X11R6/share/fluxbox/styles . The permissions are ok but i don't see my new theme in Fluxbox menu called Styles. Perhaps, i forgot to install a packages, i don't know what happened. Can you help me please ? Thanks in advance.

Setting up Fluxbox (May apply to other GUI's)
I am using FreeBSD 6, and are new to *nix in itself. I have used the 'pkg_add -r fluxbox' command to get the fluxbox packages. Although after all my searching on different sites and asking someone I still cannot find where these packages would have been installed to, from using that command. The official fluxbox site doesn't offer any insight into this either, as I suspect it may be general knowledge to unix users? Any help in tracking these down would be greatly appreciated, as would any help in configuring for base things such as the konsole. Cheers, Warwick. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Any help in tracking these down would be greatly appreciated, as would any help in configuring for base things such as the konsole. Cheers, Warwick. You can read a lot by trying some of these commands: $ man ports $ man pkg_which $ man pkg_info and then using pkg_which or pkg_info to find out answers to questions like these. As a shortcut: If fluxbox is indeed installed on your system, and your $PATH environment variable is set in a more or less standard fashion, then the following should help you, at least a little bit. 1. Edit a file in your $HOME directory entitled .xinitrc. (Yes the dot is there and important). If it is not already extant, try this: $ echo exec fluxbox ~/.xinitrc If you have the file already, you can edit it with your $EDITOR, or you can add the line to the end of the file by doubling the redirector above: 2. Assuming you've correctly configured your X server, (which is a whole other chapter in and of itself), you should now be able to type startx and the console's shell prompt, and have the X server bring fluxbox into action when the GUI starts. As for the location of fluxbox, it's probably under /usr/X11R6/bin/, but I can't say for sure. If you log out and back in, does whereis fluxbox work? The C shell (and TCSH) need to rebuild your $PATH data after installing new programs. You can issue rehash after installation, or logout/in as I mentioned.

Signal 17 to Fluxbox - system lockup
Hi list! Over the years I got into the habit of suspending processes with signal 17 (SIGSTOP). And everything ran fine until yesterday: I suspended Fluxbox and after switching to it's VTY I couldn't switch back, the system didn't respond any more to my keyboard input. How can I prevent these lockups (besides the obvious), i.e. how do I prevent Fluxbox from intercepting certain key combinations (Control + Alt + F[n])? Thanks in advance.

Re: problems running k3b in fluxbox with sudo
- Original Message - From: Brian John [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Sent: Tuesday, February 01, 2005 3:30 PM Subject: problems running k3b in fluxbox with sudo When I try to run k3b in fluxbox with sudo, I get this error message: 'Unable to find growisofs executable'. Any clue what would cause this? I can't burn DVDs until I get it resolved... From the Notes-section in man growisofs : NOTES If executed under sudo(8) growisofs refuses to start. This is done for the following reason. Naturally growisofs has to access the data set to be recorded to DVD media, either indirectly by letting mkisofs generate ISO9660 layout on-the-fly or directly if a pre-mastered image is to be recorded. Being executed under sudo(8), growisofs effectively grants sudoers read access to any file in the file system. The situation is intensified by the fact that growisofs parses MKISOFS environment vari- able in order to determine alternative path to mkisofs executable image. This means that being executed under sudo(8), growisofs effec- tively grants sudoers right to execute program of their choice with elevated privileges. If you for any reason still find the above accept- able and are willing to take the consequences, then consider running following wrapper script under sudo(8) in place for real growisofs binary. #!/bin/ksh unset SUDO_COMMAND export MKISOFS=/path/to/trusted/mkisofs exec growisofs $@ But note that the recommended alternative to the above workaround is actually to install growisofs set-root-uid, in which case it will drop privileges prior accessing data or executing mkisofs in order to pre- clude unauthorized access to the data. I have to start k3b with kdesu k3b, not just sudo. Then it finds growisofs and it all works.

If you've just installed eterm it may be worthwhile doing a rehash if you are using the csh / tcsh shell.

Re: how to set background in a fluxbox desktop
This is not really a FreeBSD question, but the answer is Esetroot -scale backgroundname.jpg, you should also man bsetroot bsetbg.

How to use TightVNC Viewer in fullscreen on Fluxbox
I would like to use TightVNC Viewer in fullscreen mode on Fluxbox on one of my workspaces to monitor my Windows computer. However, once I start up TightVNC viewer in fullscreen, I cannot figure out how to change to a different workspace, since all commands are being sent to the Windows machine instead of my X11 desktop. So, essentially, once I've started the viewer in fullscreen, I am locked into that workspace until I somehow kill the vncviewer process. Does anyone have any idea how to change workspace from within a fullscreen TightVNC session? I'd really love to figure out how to do this.

Problem using Fluxbox as Gnome2 Window Manager
I set my WINDOW_MANAGER variable to the full path for fluxbox, and launch startx .. Gnome loads up, then loads fluxbox, but then gets stuck for about 90 seconds while on the 'Window Manager' part of the loading dialog. After 90 seconds or so, the loading dialog finishes and the rest of Gnome2 is loaded, and everything seems to work fine. My question is, why is it getting stuck for 90 seconds like that? What do I need to do to avoid that delay? When I use the default Gnome WM, it only takes a few seconds to Gnome to load completely. Similarly, when I launch Fluxbox directly, it loads almost instantaneously .. Just for a test, I also loaded the ultra-minimalistic PWM window manager in Gnome, and that also exhibited the same problem. Any ideas what to do here? I am using FreeBSD 4.7, with all installed ports running latest available versions.

Fluxbox goes into resize mode when I move mouse across window borders
I am using Fluxbox on FreeBSD 5-Release, and also on Mandrake 9. Mandrake 9 works as I would expect, but in FreeBSD Fluxbox puts a window into resize mode when I put my cursor over the border of the window. This is becoming very annoying as windows are constantly resizing accidentaly. I checked in #freebsdhelp on an irc server and they were telling me that this is intentional behavior, but again, it doesn't happen on my Linux box. I've looked through the configs, searched all over, and I can't find any documentation on this 'feature' I've tried blackbox, and don't experience the same problem, but I wish to continue using Fluxbox. thanks ahead of time for any hints! ~Jake B To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with unsubscribe freebsd-questions in the body of the message
FreeBSD + Fluxbox + Icons
Here is the output from uname -mrs FreeBSD 4.7-STABLE-20030105-JPSNAP i386 I am running fluxbox 0.1.14 and was wondering how to get icons on the desktop. I'm pretty sure this has been brought up MANY times. I installed the rox-filer from the ports with make install make clean. I can run the file manager with 'rox' but don't know what the hell to do with it after that. Hope someone could help out here. __ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo! Mail Plus - Powerful. Affordable.

It's kinda hard to describe. the little box is intended to be a little quick launch sort of thing. unfortunately, when you try to minimize fluxbox, it will also go back to this, instead of docking itself into the taskbar. really, really lame, imo. i think you can just double-click on the box, and it should pop-up the main window. - erk To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with unsubscribe freebsd-questions in the body of the message
