Re: Is nextaw broken in woody ?
S. Salman Ahmed wrote: Has anyone else noticed that the nextaw/nextawg packages in woody don't seem to be working ? I'm not sure that we're talking about the same problem, but I've been having trouble getting the scroll bars I like with potato (i.e. both up and down arrow next to each other at the bottom of the scroll bar.) I've managed to get them on some apps, but not all of them as I had in slink. I was under the impression that nextaw was the package that produced that effect in slink, but it doesn.t appear the same in either potato or woody. I'm still hunting.. John I tried using both nextaw and nextawg (still don't know what the diff. is b/w the two - isn't one of them for libc5 compatibility ?) and still can't get the NeXt style look on my X-apps. I noticed this today after completing a massive upgrade of my system last night. I am running woody (updated as of now) with the following versions of nextaw: ic nextaw 0.8-2 Nextstep-like look for X apps using the Athena widgets ii nextawg 0.5.1-34 Nextstep-like look for X apps using the Athena widgets /etc/ld.so.conf looks like: /usr/X11R6/lib/neXtaw /usr/lib/libc5-compat /lib/libc5-compat /usr/X11R6/lib /usr/lib and the Xresource configuration file for nextaw looks like: !! This file sets X resources to change the colors and appearance of !! some programs to look and work better with the nextaw library. !! By default, these X resources do not take effect. If you want them !! to take effect, uncomment the next line. #define USE_NEXTAW_RESOURCES 1 #ifdef USE_NEXTAW_RESOURCES !! General resources *ShapeStyle:Rectangle *Command.ShapeStyle:Rectangle *Toggle.ShapeStyle: Rectangle *ShadowWidth: 2 *Form*Text*Background: white [snip] For nextaw-0.8-2, the above Xresource configuration file doesn't have the USE_NEXTAW_RESOURCES symbol defined.

Emacs with neXtaw?
I'm trying to compile emacs against neXtaw (an Xaw replacement based on NextStep), but I can't get it to work. First I tried with the emacs20 that comes with slink, but it didn't work, so I downloaded 20.5a from potato and tried to compile that. Still no luck. I first tried to do what the instructions in /usr/doc/nextawg/README.Debian, but that didn't work. Running ldd on the emacs binary told me why: that binary doesn't use Xaw at all. Hmm. That's when I tried to recompile it. First, I edited src/Makefile.in to change -lXaw to -lneXtaw, and then changed debian/rules to call ./configure with --with-x-toolkit=athena. This produced the exact same binary that came with slink. Then I tried making the same changes to the potato sources, and I still get a binary that doesn't use athena at all. Is there any way to do this? -- Eric Gillespie, Jr. * [EMAIL PROTECTED] All hail the Dollar, King of the Earth. pgpm63vSLTx2k.pgp Description: PGP signature
gv with neXtaw anyone?
I seem to remember that in the docs that come with either gv or neXtaw it says that it is not possible to link gv with neXtaw and gives the reason why. Sorry I can't remeber exactly why though. Pat Philip Lehman writes: I'm trying to build gv using neXtaw, but it segfaults. Linking to neXtaw works fine with Xaw based apps for me, but I'm not sure about replacing Xaw3d with neXtaw.

neXtaw widgets?
Yo- I have installed the neXtaw widget package in hopes of having the cleaner look to my apps. It appears to have worked half way. I have the outline and relative effectiveness OK but the bar and buttons do not look right. They should be a solid color with an indented dot in the center of the scrollbar but all I see is an outline of gray and white with a solid black dot. Anybody know what may be wrong? I have scoured the docs and the conf files to no avail! Anybody know? TIA, -Ian __ Ian Setford [EMAIL PROTECTED] PGP = F2 92 50 E3 CD D7 A2 D9 C4 CE 08 A6 98 E0 0F 58

neXtaw
I've installed neXtaw and the /etc/ld.so.conf is correctly configured. I'm not a programmer myself, but I used ldd to check dynamic libraries. However not all the programs used the new neXtaw. For example, xftp does but xbmbrowser and xterm do not. They do if I do LD_PRELOAD before hand. Also a lot of programs crash with neXtaw but not Xaw3d and Xaw. Is there a way to individually configure each program to use a certain library without using LD_PRELOAD. This is for configureing menus in Afterstep.

No they don't (or if xterm does, you'll have found a another *GOOD*
reason to delay the release of bo another few weeks/months).
xterm is setuid root, so if you were able to specify what libraries xterm
uses by simply setting LD_PRELOAD, you'd be able to write your own
Xaw (or libc or whatever) wich will then run as root. Not a very good
idea.
I don'
t know about xbmbrowser (don't seem to have it on my system), but
maybe something similar.
Also a lot of programs crash with neXtaw but not Xaw3d and Xaw. Is there a
way to individually configure each program to use a certain library
without using LD_PRELOAD.
Link them with the -rpath option, specifying the library you want it
to use.
This is for configureing menus in Afterstep.
(This part I don't understand).
