Re: [e-users] User Poll: Desktop Enviroments
Question: Do you use a desktop enviroment such as KDE and/or GNOME with Enlightenment DR16? I use E with all of GNOME 2.4 The only thing I've changed is to configure Nautilus not to draw the desktop (A hidden gconf key) so that multiple desktops work as I like them to. The only thing that metacity etc.do better is maximising of windows. I have a feeling this can be configured in the Theme as well, but have yet to fathom it. In my opinion, ideal behaviour is for the maximise button to cause the window to fill the entire screen bar the panel. Not just to expand into the available free space like it does at the moment. Any help with that greatly appreciated. Simon --- SF.Net is sponsored by: Speed Start Your Linux Apps Now. Build and deploy apps Web services for Linux with a free DVD software kit from IBM.

Re: [e-users] User Poll: Desktop Enviroments
Hello, I only use enlightenment (0.16.6-1.rh9) to control my desktop. I need to switch to WindowMaker (wmaker) when I'm running the PalmOS emulator (POSE) however, as it's use of FLTK or some other factor, causes me to lose my desktop (X or e16) frequently, when installing apps into the emulator. I never tracked down the cause. If it was not for that glitch, I would run e16 100% of the time. I have never found anything that comes close to the coolness and power of enlightenment.
