Hey man, have you made progress on this?

I'm not bugging, just curious...

yeah, progresing. just doing several things concurrently, ie I got abiword working now with OpenOffice and PDF import filters as well as printing to PDF and postscript. I think I fixed the Cacko problem too. so now I am compiling more apps, but the biggest thing for me is to get jamvm and scim compiled properly. got fluxbox config gui tools too. been working on gtk so the rootless apps won't be oversized and fit on the screen, otherwise there will be no way of resizing or moving them. got the firefox settings screen fitting too  compiled the latest vesion of grisbi and aspell. trying to write scripts to convert the qt launch scripts between rootless and normal mode so you can easily switch them around.

Woah, unbelievable man... You make such unbelievable progress. I tried only to do a fragment and failed - like lately wanted to compile fluxconf, as you've done. Couldn't get over some problematic function declarations etc. Spent a lot of time on it, yet it wouldn't build...

And you've done it all...

nothing has changed between 0.7.7 and 0.7.8 in the rootless bits. gaim and gimp were the only changes and the link for usr/lib/gtk-2.0

I don't know which version i tested when it works, since there is 3 0.7.5, 0.7.6 and
0.7.7, but if i do remember it stops working when you have add the 2 xqt embedded icons (not sure)  

anyway here is what i get when traying to launch embedded mode

Code: [Select]

#xlauncher -embed gqview
debug: there are 0 embedded processes
debug: no embedded processes
debug: setting display to :1.0
launching gqview embedded - please waitno more
may be i have to switch something ?
i don't knew

rename /opt/QtPalmtop/bin/Xqt-rootless1 to /opt/QtPalmtop/bin/Xqt-rootless-1
and
/opt/QtPalmtop/bin/Xqt-rootless2 to /opt/QtPalmtop/bin/Xqt-rootless-2

it should let you run two apps in rootless mode at a time. it should tell you to bugger off when you try to run a third one
i don't think its wise to run more anyway since the Z does not have that much cpu power and memory

personally, i dont like the rootless mode thing that much. it sounds like a good idea at first but once you play with it a bit more, you soon want to use the full xqt instead.

have you noticed you can cut and paste from qtopia into xqt?

Ok that makes it work Now

I agree, in fact i never shutdown Xqt (padXqtrom), it is always open, so no need to launch it each time
