Ok, Kde Works; What About Gnome?

xffm! please!

I'm quite surprised by the size of the compiled ipkg's.
This install took 10meg. The previous rc5 build took around 2, and included xffm
and a few other goodies. can it be that xfce grew that much?

sorry to put a bit of a downer on the party, but maybe you're missing something..

otherwise, WOW! excellent work!

I'm looking forward to trying xfce4 on my 6k.
I don't much mind the size.... if it is complete I'll move the default stuff to sd to put xfce on internal flash (and kde on sd too) xffm is pretty much a "must have" though.
and.. hell.... post every plugin you feel like compiling. Somebody will make use of 'em.  
Possibly me

xffm is compiled.
I'm testing right now.
Will pkg it soon, if it doesn't crash ar freeze too much.

About the size : There's a lot of stuff that can be left out (icons, themes, ...), but it will stay bigger than the previous version, cause I enabled a few extra options.
I'll check if I can strip more than I did.

Chero:

Nice work, one minor problem I encountered. When I installed the second ipk to my SD (don't have a lot of extra space on a 750  ) it returned an error that it couldn't locate the package on the external media. Turns out it didn't symlink a bunch of the files in /mnt/card/usr/local to the internal ram. So when I first launched it, no panel, only blank task bar, no background etc. Once I symlinked the missing files it runs fine. Not sure why the install didn't work.

For extra plugins, how about the mount plugin?

Cheers,
Jerry

@ jerrybme:
about the symlinks : i don't know why it doesn't make them. But, I didn't do too much work on the ipkgs as they have to change anyway. It was just a quickly-putting-together to make it possible for others to play with it already.
When we come to the final ipkgs, we'll look into this.
about the mount plugin : I'll do my best.

About xffm : please try this. (BTW : for those who don't read the whole thread: it needs xfce4_4.2.2)

Have fun,
Chero.

ok, now it runs (lots of 'icon factory' warnings)

The lack of many of the icons makes it difficult to see what is going on.


_but_
 when you open the 'root' tree (or fstab or many operations) it core dumps.

sounds like I have to create the pkg again,
this time I'll take some more time for it.
(it runs like it should on my Z)
It will not be today though because I'm out the rest of the day.

Hello,

xffm ipk has been updated.
I created it "by the book" (# make DESTDIR=/my/dir install) this time, so everything should be in it.
Everything has been stripped, I left the docs out, the locales in.

attached file : panel mount plugin.

ok , it all works now! congrats!

xffm is a bit on the slow side compared to rox. I had great hopes, but i can't delete rox yet!

I thought speed of xffm was quite good (compared to the older ipk of xfce4 in oldunstable).
I'm running a 64Mb swap-file. Maybe this speeds up things a bit.

But, take a look on www.xfce.org, they recommend rox.

Hi,

Just a few screenshots and the taskbar plugin.
Now I've got the panel and the taskbar in one, saving space on the screen.

Edit:
When the taskbar isn't running, it resumes a lot faster. So we win twice : more space on the screen and faster resumes.

Chero.

edit: Uh... never mind
Really nice work there! Thank you for taking the time to do this! And yeah perhaps better to use Rox filer and keep the package smaller by not including xffm.
