I've got rid of the <Group> setting, so now have a title bar. When you originally said version 2.14.4, did you mean 2.12.4? (can't find a 2.14.4 anywhere). On 2.12.4 or 2.20.4, I still can't get the entry box to work when by clicking in the box when -nofocus is used. No blinking cursor at any point....

Yes you are right. Not entirely sure what I managed to do there, and I had tried it several times... Other behaviour is the same apart from the window bar bit. The OK button works fine, but not the text box. I'm am using JWM, and have made no changes, but just checked _root_.jwmrc, and it has: <Grou...

I tried to compile this on Easy but it wouldn't work. Did find a solution though, after a bit of searching. Seems like reallocarray won't work on older glibc. Someone made a workaround for some other project, so I nicked it and pasted it into adwm.c : /** * Allow libapparmor to build on older glibcs...

When I run your example, the terminal window bar changes from a solid colour (focussed) to shaded (not focussed).
Keyboard input still goes to the terminal, even if mouse over the dialog, or even click on it. There is no cursor in the dialog box. Hope that helps.

Duh, I forgot about using a downloaded package.

Does get_java actually work for you? When I tried it the URLs seem out of date, so the script never completes.

Code: Select all

Running the function on its own works ok

Yes, it looks like you will need the devx. I started with a pristine Wary, but needed the devx in order to compile R of course.

schober I have never used R, and Wary was way back, but just for the sake of it: R 3.1.0 sfs It is an older version, but it compiled without any complaints, just ran ./configure then make. I did try the latest version (3.5.2), but it has missing libs (or out of date ones), and not in the mood to cha...

Isn't there a way of compiling a kernel that just builds currently used modules? I think i tried it once, but it was years ago.
After a quick search, it may be 'localmodconfig' I'm thinking of.

You can just download the version you want (qt, qt5, or gtk2, 32 or 64bit). Extract it, then just click on the doublecmd binary or the doublecmd.sh launcher script. These are 'portable' downloads, so don't need installing. You won't get a menu entry. I've had a copy of Double Commander knocking arou...

You cannot run 64 bit software on a 32 bit OS.
You probably know this, but always worth checking the obvious first :wink:
