Jumbo Xqt Package Ipk Problems

Greg -

If I wore a hat, sir, I would take it off to you and to the Jumbo cramfs team.

That was one of the easiest package installs that I have ever seen. No long sequence of one unsatisfied depends after another! BLISS! And everything appears to be functioning right, so far.

Thank you, again, friend!

The jumbo cramfs was my idea. There will be a new xqt-mozilla cramfs because the current one doesn't work properly. xqt-bochs will also be added to the xqt-apps cramfs soon.

I am also going to repackage and update all the standalone xqt ipk packages as well.

check [a href=\"http://www.users.on.net/~hluc/myZaurus/jumbo/xqtjumbo.html]http://www.users.on.net/~hluc/myZaurus/jumbo/xqtjumbo.html[/url] for more details.

HELLO MEANIE  
Welcome back
seems you was very busy these two last weeks


as you are updating the xqt cramfs
i wonder if you can add a feature for changing the menu fonts of gtk applications
to work with confort i think the best size is 16 or 18 style Bold helvitica

here are some informations may be useful

in the site web below related to the fluxbox documentation
[a href=\"http://fluxbox.sourceforge.net/docs/en/faq...#gnome-settings]http://fluxbox.sourceforge.net/docs/en/faq...#gnome-settings[/url]

in the FAQ section here is the answer
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Question: Gtk2/Gnome2 applications look wired under Fluxbox, but they look ok when gnome is started

Answer:Run gnome-settings-daemon when Fluxbox starts, eg. put this into your ~/.xinitrc

#load this to have gtk2 apps look ok
GSDPID=`pidof gnome-settings-daemon`
if [ "x$GSDPID" == "x" ]; then
gnome-settings-daemon &
fi

If you don't have gnome installed you can use gtk+/gtk2 theme switcher.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
So my questions are

1- is this answer the right one
2-is gnome-settings-daemon installed in the xqt cramfs
3- is gtk+/gtk2 theme switcher installed in the xqt crmafs
4- and finally if no one is installed is it possible to install one of them

here is the link to gtk+/gtk2 theme switcher
http://www.muhri.net/nav.php3?node=gts

it seems that it exists an debian arm package as in the link below

http://packages.debian.org/unstable/x11/gt...eme-switch.html

waiting you opinion  

Cheers

There will be a new xqt-mozilla cramfs because the current one doesn't work properly.
Has it been uploaded yet, Meanie? A little earlier "today" I d/l the xqt-mozilla cramfs size = 23,033,392. If you haven't changed it yet, let me know & I'll get the new one when it goes up.

xqt-bochs will also be added to the xqt-apps cramfs soon.
You are reading my mind, man! (G)

A great idea. Your install script makes working with cramfs a breeze!!

THANK YOU most sincerely!!

Not a problem. Only asked so that I would know should I redownload. I will check the file size posted to see when the new one is up.

Understanding & sympathy. I'm still working out of a 53.3 max POTS connection. (G). Maybe some day I'll be able to go DSL.

Thanks a lot, Meanie!

Ah, an old man's memory. CRS syndrome. (G)

Also forgot to add to my post about the C860 success (JIC it may matter to someone) that SD card was formatted FAT on a WindHozed desktop box.

Hey, Meanie! Bet that you are sick & tired of hearing "Hey, Meanie" by now!! (G)
