I don't use the network monitor or the battery monitor, but I do use the mixer plugin. Do you have the mcs-manager properly compiled and the right version in use? Plus, do you have the right source selected (volume, master, pcm, etc)?

John Nielsen writes: > I second Warren's endorsement of the upgrade. :) > Now that I managed to get it up and running, I fully agree with both of you :-) BTW turns out I had an old version of libxfcegui4.so in /usr/X11R6/lib which screwed up the build. After removing this library with its associated .a and .la files, and rebuilding some ports that use this library, the update finally worked ok. Even transparency and drop shadows seem to work ok with the i810 driver. There's one thing broken though: After the upgrade, panel plugins fail to display correct values. The battery monitor claims the battery of my laptop is at 0%. The network monitor plugin also sees the traffic at 0 kbyte/s no matter what I do. The volume plugin displays a value according to where I click in the plugin, but this does not translate to a higher or lower volume. Inversely, if I set the volume using xfce4-mixer, the value is not correctly displayed by the plugin. Did you notice similar problems?

I ran the beta1 and beta2 for a while when I used Linux, and it was _much_ better than 4.2. Things to note as well: - -xfce4-iconbox no longer exists in 4.4; functionality was integrated into the taskbar, which is much better in this version. - -xfce4-systray no longer exists as well in 4.4; this was integrated into the taskbar as well I believe..

From what I've seen so far, xfce4.4 is > definitely worth it. I've updated 3 machines so far using portupgrade and haven't had any undue trouble. It went something like this: #portsnap fetch update && pkgdb -F && pkg_version -v -l '<' (my usual upgrade starter) pkgdb tells me a bunch of xfce4 ports are now obsolete. I tell it to try to delete them. It fails. I interrupt it (^C) and manually uninstall the meta-port: # pkg_deinstall x11-wm/xfce4 Then # pkgdb -F again, again telling it to delete the obsolete ports. This time it succeeds. Now the money shot: # portupgrade -rR xfce\* && portupgrade -N x11-wm/xfce4 Updates everything and re-installs the meta-port, which has a couple new dependencies. Note that lots of the ports being updated have OPTIONS screens, so either keep an eye on it or run through them in advance (see the archives for scripted ways of doing this). I second Warren's endorsement of the upgrade. :) JN ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

upgrading xfce4 fails
Hi all, I'm having a hard time upgrading xfce4 on a FreeBSD 6.1 box. I've tried portupgrade first, but as it bumped into a boatload of errors I eventually had to resort to upgrade individual packages.
