(old)Puppy Linux Discussion Forum

txemijendrix hello, and check my video settings and is equal to yours, yet rxvt background is not transparent (though it may be incompatible with my hardware), thank you very much for your response.

also wanted to thank for that update runtt21 ITask-ng, now looks great, but when I add "gadcom" and disable it, I get a e17 error, maybe someone should do the same.

also wanted to know if you know the beta 2 release of e17, new applications are very fantastic. (eve browser)

thanks and excuse my English with google translator

@cgt_1991 I only used gadcom once and wasn't really happy with it.It's one of those components that isn't quite there yet. Yes I know about the beta 2 ,I also know they have had some problems with it. Yes EVE looks cool but I have some friends over at the pclinuxos forum that had had a lot of problems getting the ewebkit to compile with EFL.So for now I am leaving that alone.

Also if you have a problem with the snapshot window still being in the shot.Open it on a different desktop set 10 sec and change back to the desktop you want the shot of.

then says "wouldn't boot". What does _that_ mean?

I don't really know. I just like the :

So the one I stuck with , that worked best ( ie quickest) was ...........

MACPUP .

Tonight's How to is for desktops and bindings....

Open the settings panel and go to screens. Virtual desktops controlls both the number and arrangement of your desktops. Under advanced settings ou also have control over how the desktop switch and how that change looks.



In the settings panel under input you have control over different kinds of bindings.You can set key and mouse bindings as well as edge bindings.By default macpup has the edge bindings turned off cause they are usually set to change desktops and the change usually happens when you don't expect it to like hanging a window off the edge of the screen.

I just tried to do a full install on 1st partition using the frugal install of macpup that is on the 2nd partition but it failed. The universal installer only created 2 files lib and another one (sorry I deleted them already) Puppy 5.1.1 did the install correctly(from a frugal on 2nd). Wonder why???? I formatted and tried several times with same results. I made a backup of the boot folder,that is why I am able to post this using my macpup frugal install.

Loving the Macpup 511 experience so far. The only problems I encountered were:

1. Places module not working
2. Enlightenment Segv'd Fault error when I activated the composite module then set the "Style" of any shelf into "Invisible". Tried this on my other PC on LiveCd mode, same thing happened. No big deal really.

Otherwise, it's rock solid and easy to fall in love with. Lol.

Already covered the composite thing.

@max under the hood this pup is the same as lupu511.

I should has this theme uploaded tomorrow.MPClub . Agust did it for the pclinux e17 club and he let me have it for macpup too.

How to extra desktop modules. These are the most useless and most fun extra modules. They are also my favorites !!!! Menu-settings-modules under the appearance section you will find composite DONT LOAD THIS. But you will also find Flame,rain.snow & penguins . To turn them on just load the module. To turn them off just unload the module.



To configure them open the settings panel and look at the bottom under the look tab.

Hi all.
I'm working on a wallpaper for Macpup with a new idea for the logo using 3D.
Here is a capture.
Don't know if to make the ears or not...

Hi

Dude ,That's a big eye.

I'm keeping the original proportions of the puppy logo. It's just the way it is. Anyway it's just an idea I'm developing. Maybe I'll try it with human eyes to see how it looks.

This is really good txemijendrix !!!!

I'm glad you like it. I usually make wallpapers for the distros or desktop systems I use. It's my way of payback.

Bye

I am doing some work on the efenniht theme from the svn. Also using some of the extra backgrounds it has.

The MP511-MPefenniht-1.pet is now up on my macpup page. The .pet has the theme and the three extra backgrounds that are included in the svn.

you should add a link to your posts for the pets.

I did post it earlier in the thread.

I will start doing a how to over the everything module soon.It will take me a little bit to get ready ,lots of stuff to go over.

If anyone wants themes from the older macpup threads updated let me know .I will get to them as soon as I have time. THX.

Dude, I believe he means add them to your signature, and I agree,,,

OK , I made a new sig with links.....

Today a few words about "everything"..... To open "everything" it's menu-run everything. To configure "everything" open the settings panel and go to the extensions tab.You can also configure the components of "everything" here.Most of the actions are double click.





After opening "everything" type ? and you get some instructions for using "everything"



If you just type a few letters of an apps name you can launch that app by double clicking on the apps icon or on launch.



If you just type / "everything" turns into a file manager.



using ctrl left or right will let you move through the plugins. settings will give you all of the e17 settings.



Places is like a file manager .Home is the root folder and wallapapers is in /root/.e/e/backgrounds.



Here is all the plugins. The web plugins work best with firefox."everything" will call other browsers if you set it to but they wont load the page.



If you select applications in the plugins just type a letter and it will list all the apps that start with that letter.You can launch them from here.



This is just an intro to all the stuff "everything can do.

This is something I possibly should have covered already. The shutdown/reboot options in the e17 menu do work. But the other options don't. I still recommend using the exit icon on the ibar.It works better with puppy.

I have installed the red themes, but when I scroll down the list they are is some text where there is normally a small picture/icon showing the wallpaper used in the theme (by default) there is a blank space, so I click it anyway & clicked apply - nothing changed.

They looked great in sneekylinux's video but do not work for me.
