Title: Rox And Xfce
Post by: pyknite on January 08, 2006, 02:45:17 pm

hi there....

I have installed Rox and xfce... i followed this tuto: http://users.telenet.be/zaurususer/Chero/xfce4-rox-howto/ (http://users.telenet.be/zaurususer/Chero/xfce4-rox-howto/)

he said you must type: rox --pinboard=MYPINBOARD in console...

when i type this, it returned me this error:

(ROX-Filer:3158): Glib-GObject-WARNING **: cannot register existing type 'GtkIconeTheme'

(ROX-Filer:3158): Glib-GObject-WARNING **: cannot retrieve class for invalid (unclassed) type '<invalid>'


thx for your help

i have three other question:

1. with xfce, it's possible to have the virtual keyboard??
2. when I pivot the screen to use the zaurus in tablett mode, xfce didn't rotate, it's possible to make that he rotate??
3. with fvwm or fluxbox, is there some applet to see the status of the battery and the wireless card?

1 - yes, you just need to run it as normal (it should be with the old matchbox menu items)
2 - same deal as keyboard; just find the rotate item from the menu
3 - not sure, but I guess any one of the other applets would run fine in the slit...? try it

1. yes , xvkbd for complete keybord see help for more option like xvkbd -compct for a small layout

2. Make a keyboard shortcut (settings => windows settings mode => keyboard) and for the key pivot the screen , it assign the key x86rotate. Now execute with this shortcut the command " chkhinge " ...
You can customize action when you rotate the screen in /etc/sysconfig/clamshell ... (for exemple lauche the virtual keyboard in tablet mod ...)

Make a simple script:

Code: [Select]

sleep 10
xwd -display :0.0 -root -out /mnt/card/screen.xwd
if you install imagemagick you can convert the xwd file to an easier format without opening the file in gimp to convert.

Code: [Select]

sleep 10
xwd -display :0.0 -root -out /mnt/card/screen.xwd
convert /mnt/card/screen.xwd /mnt/card/screen.png
rm /mnt/card/screen.xwd
Cheers,
Jerry
