I don't know why this happen. In Slackware 13 it worked fine.
This is the output:
Code:
QGtkStyle was unable to detect the current GTK+ theme.

I know that this not a Slackware question, but since Slackware 13.1 has XFCE 4.6.2 in its standard installation I just ask here. I have a problem with the event sounds in XFCE 4.6.2 on Debian Sid. I already have a thread about this problem here, and couldn't solve it till now. I need to know if this issue is related to Debian or to XFCE, before I ask at the XFCE mailing list. So just one simple question: Has any one of you that is using XFCE got the event sounds to work?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm using -current (xfce-4.6.2) I've noticed that the shortcuts I define aren't working anymore. The ones I define through windowmanager -> keyboard are ok, but the ones through keyboard-> application shortcuts are ignored.
View 5 Replies View RelatedLike for instance, if I have Ubuntu Lucid Lynx installed with XFCE, and it has an applications made for XFCE. will the applications also work on say some other distro like, Wolvix, that is an XFCE-based distro~????
What I am trying to say is: Do applications that are made for XFCE, work on ANY distro that has XFCE installed?
I'm using Fedora 15, I have installed XFCE and now I do not have audio in both XFCE and Gnome. The external DAC is found but does not emit a sound.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI recently installed Slackware Linux 13.1 , and my Wireless is down. I've only installed 3 Linux disto's on my main laptop (Ubuntu 9.10 , 10.04 , and Crunchbang Linux 9.04 , just had Crunchbang), and they all had the same problem. In all three , I was able to enable Windows Wireless drivers and every thing worked. Now , I'm assuming I have to the same ting in Slackware? Sorry , but I have no idea what my wireless card is. But I know that my laptop is a Dell Insprion E1705. One last thing , I did ifconfig and that wlan0 is my Wi-Fi interface. I typed ifconfig wlan0 up to see if that was the problem. After I did that , I got and error message. Then I typed ifconfig wlan0 down to see if it was down and it made wlan0 down. I tried bringing it up again , but I got an error saying it couldn't find the device specified. Also , how do I install XFCE? I really don't like KDE for some reason and would like to install XFCE. I chose XFCE over GNOME (my favorite) because I want to try something new.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI was over in the Desktop forum yesterday and apparently 'event sounds' are available for Xfce and are part of the original package, but I've never seen them made available, that is, the switch to turn them on isn't where it is suppose to be, in any Slackware specific package of Xfce.I've used 4.61 that came with Slackware64 13.1, 4.61 from the Salix depository, 4.62 from Mr. Workman, 4.62 from 'current' and recently 4.8 from Mr. Workman. None of these make the 'event sounds' available.

When I open it , the top is cut off , so the minimize , maximize and close buttons are cut-off . I really have no idea what to do.P.S. I have XFCE instead of KDE

View 1 Replies View RelatedSlackware 13.1 XFCE. I've come across a strange problem which i've never had before on Slackware. I decided to set a desktop up for my sister. Being girls as they are she wanted to change the wallpaper. I showed her how, however when the machine is restarted the wallpaper turns back to default. In all my slack machines around here, i just simply right click on the desktop and change it. That makes it persistent throughout boots. I'm obviously missing something.

View 4 Replies View RelatedOS = Slackware 13.1
I'm normally a KDE user but tried xfce4 and found that it works nicely. I wanted to switch to it for a while. I did find one particular problem: When you try and end the session, you can Log Out but can not Restart or Shutdown. If you click on Restart or Shutdown it asks for password Even after entering a valid password, it will not allow the action.
(I tried user and root's passwords.) It says "Please enter your password." After entering the password it says, "Either the password you entered is invalid, or the system administrator disallows shutting down this computer with your user account." (Before you ask; my user is in power group.)
I tinkered with it for a while and decided it must have something to do with KDM and so I switched my default runlevel to 3 and started xfce4 [via startx] and it worked as expected. Next I tried using xdm instead of kdm and YES, it works as expected. I was able to Restart or Shutdown (no asking for password, it just does it.) What is it about KDM that does not allow xfce4 to restart or shutdown?
Again when I was working under Xfce system hangs up. Earlier I had similar problems but under KDE so I blamed KDE for that. I am sure that there is something wrong with an access to external input devices. Some kind of a broken connection. I am using a USB keyboard but the same happened with PS/2 keyboard. Two flashing leds, I guess, indicate that device is no longer supported by the system. The only hope for an access to the system is via external wired connection. The other possibilities, I am thinking of, are hardware problems with PCI-bus or a virus affecting on a hardware level.
View 12 Replies View RelatedI installed almost the complete install. I left off Apache, MySQL and PHP since I wanted to do them myself (which I did and it went fine). I selected KDE as the window manager but now I want to try xfce. When I boot up, I'm left at the command prompt and have to login (probably does that for everybody) then I run startx. That brings up my KDE. Are the xfce components installed and can I use something else to bring up that desktop? Or can I install it and then bring it up at the command after login?

When I installed Texmaker in ubuntu 10.10 I was not able to run those file that have already been run in windows. Is there any configuration that should I do to make these files compatible for texmaker? or what should I do? By the way, I am not preferring to change from texmaker, but if there is any similar editor better than that , please let me know. What is the compiler that is working in Texmaker, and is it true that it is being installed with Ubuntu its self.
'm trying to write pdfs with ubuntu.So I installed these packages :
texlive-latex-base
texlive-latex-base-doc
texlive-latex-extra
[code]....
I have installed both TexLive and Texmaker (using the package manager). Now I am trying to set up Texmaker to use TexLive for compiling. Everything I can find online suggests that the files should be located in a location such as this:
Code:
/usr/local/texlive/2005/bin/i386-linux
However, for me the "texlive" folder does not exist within "/usr/local". Where else might the necessary files be located?
Also, running
Code:
tex -version
suggests that TexLive 2009 is installed correctly.
If I reboot to Slackware current with a DVD in the drive and start XFCE, I get 2 identical DVD icons on the desktop.

I'm trying to use as few KDE packages as possible in Xfce and yesterday found and installed Chestnut-dialer (./configure, make, make install).When trying to run it as a user it gives the message, "pppd:must be root to run pppd."Apparenty you have to set the pppd UID for root. Once done it will make the connection as user, but you can't "go anywhere." That is the e-mail client, browser, etc., report they are not connected.So far the only way to get it to work is to open a terminal, sign on as root (su) and fire up Chestnut-dialer from the command line.

The problem is that the keyboard only works in Xfce or in Kde, in my system Slackware64 13.1.
What should I do to have it working in all window managers that come along the distribution?
I notice that when I create a launcher in Gnome it then appears later on my desktop when logged into xfce. I dislike the way DE's are 'bleeding' into one another this way. Does anybody have a way to separate the lists of launchers each environment possesses so I can have different icons in each? The only way I can think of off the top of my head is commenting-out icons in my xfce config file - if that is possible.
I'm after fewer icons under xfce and am happy to have the Gnome desktop fully populated with more - hope that makes sense. I'd rather not have to go through installing and setting up idesk with xfce to achieve the same result if I can avoid it. Ditto on menues. I have my Gnome menus properly tidied up, but under xfce I still have several multiple instances of, for instance, the menu-editor app. Can you 'quarantine' these from one another as well?
I'm giving Slackware a try Again.. But How can i upgrade xfce to xfce4.8?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI am openbox user and yesterday I tested new Xfce 4.8 on Slack 13.1. But problem is the same as in older release. Xrandr autostart. I use LCD connected on my notebook and autostart script in Xfce is slow, cant set right resolution on boot. System start, and blink monitor and set correct resolution 1920x1200 on LCD Monitor after 0.5 seconds. This gave my effect of 2 desktop resolution. I put my script to xinitrc.
xrandr --output VGA-0 --mode 1920x1200 &
but this not help. script is not executed. Then I set autostart xrandr script with GUI tool
Session and Startup but nothing helps. Xfce still gave me next effect. Openbox use /home/mame/.config/autostart and have no problem set the corrent resolution of my LCD on boot.
I'm curious as to why Xfce 4.6.2, has yet to be added to 'current'?
