thx :) following your suggestion I ended up editing the
.gconf/apps/panel/profiles/default/toplevels/bottom_panel/%gconf.xml
file and got the result I wanted

thank you (again :))

There are some keys that can be tweaked to set this in gconf:

/apps/panel/toplevels/top_panel_screen0/orientation

If your running from console, maybe you can use "gconftool-2 --set [...]" 
to get the job done and then restart the panel (killall gnome-panel) or 
relogin to apply the changes.

gnome-applet top bottom left right setting

2011-06-15 Thread Joao Ferreira Gmail
Hello all,

Where can I find the gnome-applet configuration setting that defines the
position (top, left, right, bottom) ?

I need to change it back to the default setting (bottom, I guess)...
changed it to right but the result is not so good and I can't find a way
to put it back the way it was before (this is a scenario where I call
gnome-applet from a command line on an "ssx -X " connection).

thx

joao

This problem has been happening a lot lately. In any case, it has
happened on most computers that I have installed Debian on recently.

I remember being told that the reason is that Alsa is not stable
enough so that it does not get installed by default (or something to
that effect).

Not much help, I know. Sorry.

/dev/dsp missing gnome applet volume control complaining

2005-12-07 Thread Henry Hollenberg

Hey gang,

I'm running sarge on an ibm laptop T40 from emperorlinux.

I just upgraded the empkernel to 2.6.12 which got lots of things
working which I had broken trying to fiddle with sound on my own.

Later, when I tried to get the cdrom player working under gnome:
/usr/bin/gnome-cd but had weak or no sound.

SO, I went to the gnome Volume Control Applet (2.8.2) but it complains
about: "Sorry, no mixer elements and/or devices found" in an Error dialog.

When I checked for devices I see no /dev/dsp but there is a /dev/snd and
/dev/sndstat.

Anybody else seen gnome Volume Control broken as such?

Is this a side effect of moving from oss to alsa?


I was able to turn the sound up by: apt-get install kde kdm
and using the kde volume control gismo.

lsmod | grep snd:
snd_intel8x0   29504  1
snd_ac97_codec 80120  1 snd_intel8x0
snd_pcm84616  3 snd_intel8x0,snd_ac97_codec
snd_timer  21892  1 snd_pcm
snd47844  5 snd_intel8x0,snd_ac97_codec,snd_pcm,snd_timer
soundcore   7904  2 audio,snd
snd_page_alloc  7812  2 snd_intel8x0,snd_pcm

customizing gnome applet names and icons

2004-10-24 Thread H. S.
(not sure if my first post made it, apologies if this is a repition)
I wonder if on a given gnome system we can customize the icons that 
appear on the panels or task bars. Specifically, I want to change to 
name or icons or both of the volume controls. I have controls for PCM, 
speaker and headphones and currently all the icons and labels (names) of 
those icons are the same.

I am running Debian Sid kernel 2.6.7 and:
~# dpkg -l gnome-desktop* gnome-session* | grep '^ii'
ii  gnome-desktop- 2.6.1-2Common files for GNOME 2 desktop apps
ii  gnome-session  2.6.2-6The GNOME 2 Session Manager

The kernel's acpi implementation in /proc is very slow. I am not clear
on how much of the delay is real CPU load, most of load might be due
to waiting for a slow ACPI system. In wmbattery's acpi support, I found
it best to allow the delay between updates to be tunable by the user,
and make the default for ACPI 3x as long as it is for APM. At least this
keeps the apparent load average down.

It's also possible that this program is doubling the time of each update
by reading the acpi info files when it only needs to read the status
files.

Re: ACPI gnome applet for battery

Thanks for your replies.


The applet is in  gnome-applets  2.2.2-2  

This battery applet works through APM only (the package depends on the 
`libapm' libray)
I am looking for an applet that works through ACPI.
You are incorrect. It works (on my computer, right now) with acpi as
well.


Yes. But I just found out that you need to run kernel 2.4.22 (at least
in some circumstances).
with ACPI enabled (and APM disabled)

 Installed it a few minutes ago and wham! the
battery applet started to work, as did thermal info (with acpi -V).

Please can you confirm that this applet takes a lot of cpu times
as on my laptop.
Of course in this case this applet is a contradiction by itself.
Thanks,
Jerome

Well, what is a lot? I think I can confirm this. It takes a constant
3.0% on my 2.8Ghz, which would be about 17% on my previous 500Mhz
laptop. I would consider that a lot, yes.

Maybe a bug report?

That is correct (I have check the souce):
the applet reads data files in /proc/acpi
Nevertheless I note that this applet takes a lot of cpu time:
I guess it spends its times to read the data.
I am sorry for the mistake.

I think the GNOME modem lights applet is able to be configured to watch
different devices and lock files - try the 'advanced' tab (from memory,
not using a modem on this box).

ppp0 surveyer gnome applet? or some sort of script driven status displayer?

2002-10-14 Thread Bruno Boettcher

Hello!

lately my internet connection through ADSL became really flakey, and i
am not allways aware when the connection drops or is up...

thus i would like to have some sort of status display somewhere...

since i nearly don't use the gnome stuff that is hanging around my
desktop, i thought that maybe there would be that sort of thing lying
allready around as a panel applet

but no luck, the ppp monitor seems ot work only with normal RTC
modems

keeping allways a tail -f /var/log/messages open is cumbersome, and
there are the ip-up and ip-down scripts that could send a signal to an
app


so is there allready something out that does this?

I have Gnome running on and Icewm-gnome window manager. I want to have
the applet panel at the top of the screen and use the autohide feature.
I have used the panel menu to relocate it. I want it to stay there when
I log out and be there the next time I log in. I have not been able to
figure out why it goes back to the default every time I log out. Any
suggestions or is this a bug? I am using the Gnome packages from Debian
