Re: [e-users] User Poll: Desktop Enviroments

I run Enlightenment on my main machine. I also have Gnome and KDE installed, so that I can use/explore their programs when I so desire. Enlightenment is the core of my system. I have been using it since I discovered it running under gnome in 2000. I run Fluxbox on my laptop computer; it is has a 600mhz CPU and 128mb RAM. I'm using Fluxbox on it for speed and to try out something new. Fluxbox is very quick, but I would never want to be without E (it's so smooth).

[e-users] EVAS for embedded 2D graphics
Hi all, I'm interested in using Evas for my embedded application. I run on an XScale platform, Linux 2.4 kernel. The features of Evas seem perfect for what I need, but before I go further, can anyone advise on the following: - How easy will it be to cross-compile evas for my xscale / arm cpu? - Are there any special compilation options which I should be aware of? - Does Evas have to run on top of X or can I compile it for direct frame buffer usage? If so, how? - From where should I download a suitable version of Evas? I'm not familiar with CVS but I believe I'll have to become so!?? And finally, is anyone out there already already running Evas in their embedded arm application? If so I'd love to hear from you. thanks Ant --- This SF.Net email is sponsored by: IBM Linux Tutorials Free Linux tutorial presented by Daniel Robbins, President and CEO of GenToo technologies.

Re: [e-users] changing menu speed
On Sun, 2004-03-07 at 01:13, Jeff wrote: I would like to change the speed of the menu system (middle click). Problem im having is that when I open up the menu then a sub menu and if the mouse is not just right it will open a different sub menu than the one im try to access. I really just want the menu to stay up, guess its because im going diagonally to click onto the program i want ( say if its at the bottom of the menu. Any help would be great. Take a look around in Special FX Settings. I don't think there's a setting for the speed of menu appearance, but you can disable menu animation, control whether E moves menus to be onscreen, whether the pointer warps to submenus, etc. Other than that, try hovering the mouse over the menu name until it starts to appear, and then moving into it. (Spent a few minutes practicing my technique here.) -- BAM - We do precision guesswork. --- This SF.Net email is sponsored by: IBM Linux Tutorials Free Linux tutorial presented by Daniel Robbins, President and CEO of GenToo technologies.
