View 14 Replies View RelatedI find xcompmgr more than adequate for making a desktop look pretty modern, and I don't like the more extravagentCompiz gimmicks - but there is one thing that irritates when using xcompmgr which someone here might have worked round.
Rounded window borders don't draw and redraw properly when using the Terminal (gnome-terminal and the LXDE and Xfce ones) or system monitor and moving them from their default place. You get this little white botch at the corners. I'm not massively technical and I'm ambivalent about how much more I want to learn as I have plenty of creative outlets already, but I would like to solve this. Somehow xcompmgr is treating these programs as a different class? It's capable of drawing the window borders properly as it is just these two programs that get botched. Possibly this doesn't get noticed as maybe people usually use xcompmgr with openbox and LXDE and their square window borders. I did do a search but there was nothing matching what I saw.
I wanted to update by debian 6 install. The repo link in my sources.list file is of volatile, which i read some where that volatile has been discontinued. Could you please let me know the official debian 6 repository link. I have been trying to google for it but have not been successful so far.

Today I installed Fedora12 from the DVD, so this is my first contact with all of you. The last years I ran very well with gentoo, but the time for system maintenance got to big the last few times I updated the system, so I decided to change and here am I. The Problem: My system is newly installed from the DVD and I was trying to run the first update, but got the following errormassage by KPackageKit:
Code:
Error Type:
Error Value: Error getting repository data for installed, repository not found
File : /usr/share/PackageKit/helpers/yum/yumBackend.py, line 3125, in

File : /usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/packagekit/backend.py, line 710, in dispatcher
self.dispatch_command(args[0], args[1:])
[Code]...
It occured after informing me about the amount of packages that need to be updated and a message about some dependencies that have to be newly installed. At the moment I'm a bit lost about what to do. Also I realy don't know which system-information would be useful - let me know and I will answer.

If I manually click on the link it will resolve in firefox so I am sure it is not my net connection per se, it seems yum or curl is adding a : to the end of the url thats why it wont resolve properly.
I have done a yum clean all , which didnt really help either. reinstalling the rpmfusion repos isnt an option either as I start getting curl errors in the terminal. I am really at a loss here and am completely out of ideas as I cant install any updates or software , at first I thought the repositories were having problems with the holidays but this has been going on for 4 days now. /var/log/messages isnt showing anything either.

Does LXDE have a repository (source.list) like all the other versions (Gnome, KDE, etc.)?How to add to the LXDE Repository
1: Download Synaptic Package Manager apt-get install synaptic
2: Open Synaptic Package Manager--> Settings--> Repositories
3: Click 'Add'
So I recently moved from Ubuntu 10.04 to Debian (I'm tired of Ubuntu assuming everything I want). As much as I like how Debian doesn't result in me uninstalling several hundred MB of packages, it also doesn't have the latest stuff.I'm using sid AND experimental repositories and neither of them let me use the later KDEs. I want the new KDE, its significantly better but I have no idea how to get it with Debian's repos.Also, how am I supposed to install the nvidia drivers in synaptic? I had to download them from nvidia's website and log out into a command line. To make matters more confusing, it asked for gcc 4.4 but I do have that (as well as all other c++ 4.4 related packages). I can ignore the gcc warning and it installs just fine anyway. I can deal with installing the drivers from the command line but its REALLY annoying when you have to do that after every kernel update, so i'd rather have the package manager do it for me.I am so far very unimpressed with the way Debian is maintained. Its missing many packages ubuntu came with too. I have other problems as well but I've managed to fix them or I'll work on them more later.
