Windowmaker & (x)vim For Pdaxrom?

Well, I'm far from being guru in X11 fonts. It is enough to say that classical pcf fonts are not scalable (unlike Type1 or TTF) and * in their names is a wildcard like in a shell.
xfontsel allows you to choose fonts on your system based on your criteria. When you launch it you can see -fndry-fmly-wght--blah-blah-blah-blah...
If you click on, say, avgWdth, you will get a list of available widths. You can click on other items to constrict search process even further.

This should work on your system.... I hope

Code: [Select]

"Time -*-*-bold-*-*--*-*-*-*-60-*-*",
"Date -*-*-*-*-*--*-*-*-*-50-*-*",
xlsfonts just lists all installed fonts

The default Date and Time strings don't work because these fonts are in crox-cyrillic package. Be careful if you want to install them: startx in RC10-12 has a bug that will prevent other installed fonts from loading by X11  
But if you still want to data that you will need to replace : in font separator with ,
E.g. you will need to replace

Code: [Select]

FONTS_PATH=$FONTS_PATH"/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/cyrillic:"with

Code: [Select]

FONTS_PATH=$FONTS_PATH"/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/cyrillic,"AFAIK this issue will be fixed in the next pdaxrom release.

But why does the bottommost portrait screenshot look a bit weird as the lower part of it seems not to be displaying anything... or is it just my eye problem?   

Hey, this is just end of file  
Finally I've made IPKs.

Look below for some corrections of README as a result of this packaging.

If you'd like some Z friendliness, install wmaker_pdaxrom_0.1_all.ipk. Files contain some useful (for me) settings and hotkeys. For better results make sure you have /etc/X11/kb/corgi.xmodmap (optionally userdefined.xmodmap).
Note: wmaker can't bind several buttons on one action, so 'Menu' button doesn't work in portrait orientation, use 'E/J' button on your touchscreen instead (on C860 at least  

Finally to get dockable system monitor+clock+sound volume constrol, install wmzmon_0.1_armv5tel.ipk See wmzmon --help and /home/root/.wmzmon.xpm for customization directions. I like default "wmzmon -a" view

I successfully  installed the three packages of WindowMaker. Running startx after reboot generates the following error :
'/usr/local/bin/wmaker: error while loading shared libraries: libwraster.so.3: cannot open shared object file : no such file or directory'

Please your advice ...

thanks,
David.

Try to add to your ~/.profile

export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:/usr/local/lib

Thanks for your reply . I did your suggestion but got the same error .
Just to let you know that I installed the WM packages on my SD card immediately after flashing PdaX 1.1.0 beta1.

thanks,
David.

Have you relogged on after changing your ~/.profile (or just issue . ~/.profile in the shell prompt)? If yes then try to locate libwraster.so.3 on your SD card and add path to it to LD_LIBRARY_PATH

iamphet , After doing copying libwraster.so.3 to /mnt/usr/lib and adding /mnt/usr/lib to $LD_LIBRARY_PATH, I got the following error message :'/usr/local/lib/wmaker: error while loading shared libraries: /mnt/card/usr/lib/libwraster.so.3: file too short '

[iamphet]

I didn't mean to copy libwraster.so.3 somewhere. It is just a symlink (BTW does a filesystem on your SD card support symlinks?)
I mean

Code: [Select]

export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/path-to-install-dir-on-your-sd-card/lib:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH

Working ! .
This is a great window manager .

thanks,

Yes.  Besides KDE 3.5 I love this one most.  Very straightforward, configurable and flexible.  And it loads and runs very fast too.  The only glitch I've found perhaps is it's difficult to get the clock displayed in wmzmon.  
And iamphet is a great guy indeed.

Here is an alpha version of Vim7 with GTK2. I've removed tutor, localised manpages, messages and menus.
Also I've included more slim executable named v7 intended as a replacement for vi (the set of features = NORMAL for those familiar with Vim build process).

[desertrat]

Once upon a time I built WindowMaker with a patch which allows to use single click instead of double click. Also I made some Z-specific tweaks.

Is this single-click configurable? Changing from single-click to double-click is one of the first things I do when I do a new installation of KDE

If the single-click has been hard-coded by your patch, I might try my hand at compiling WindowMaker -- is it just a straightforward configure; make install?

Also what was the nature of the Z-specific tweaks you made?

-- cheers

[iamphet]

Is this single-click configurable?
Single click is configurable (the last tab in wprefs)

I might try my hand at compiling WindowMaker -- is it just a straightforward configure; make install?
There is some minor tweaking with C- and LD-flags.

Also what was the nature of the Z-specific tweaks you made?
They are in wmaker-pdaxrom package: most of them are just Z-key bindings.

Dear All,
After I update My SL-7500C to Beta2 and install wmaker .
When I start wmaker.The sysytem has a complaint like follow:

Code: [Select]

"Removing empty element from the valid fontpaths
/home/root/.xinitr.wmaker: line 1: /proc/power_key_off: No such file or directory
Model:SL7500
/usr/local/bin/wmaker: relocation error: /usr/local/bin/wmaker: undefined symbol: _Xsetlocale
/home/root/.xinitrc.wmaker: line 35: /proc/power_key_off: No such file or directory

waiting for X server shut dowm
xmodmap: unable to open diplay''
xset:unable to open display""
wmaker: relocation error:undefined symbol: _Xsetlocale
I use wmaker at Beta1,everything run perfect.
Is there something I can do to go back to beautiful windows maker?

[iamphet]

/home/root/.xinitr.wmaker: line 1: /proc/power_key_off: No such file or directory

I've got only SL-860C so I can't help you effeciently until beta 2 goes out for it. Just some advices...

Lines with /proc/power_key_off are copied from the matchbox-pdaxrom's .xinitrc. You can compare  .xinitrc's from beta1 and beta2 to see how it was changed. In versions < beta2 you could just comment this out but then you will have some troubles with suspend/resume.

/usr/local/bin/wmaker: relocation error: /usr/local/bin/wmaker: undefined symbol: _Xsetlocale

I think the only solution is to rebuild wmaker with new libraries. I can send you a patch and command line to do that.

iamphet,you r my god.Thank you !
Looking forward to your patch.
