  David,
  
  I just tested both these modules from a fresh cvs checkout and they work 
  fine. They show up in my modules list here.
  
  If I had to guess, I would say that the module.desktop is missing from 
  ~/.e/e/modules/net[cpu]. You can try removing ~/.e/e/modules/net[cpu] 
  and reinstall them...that should install the proper module.desktop so 
  that they show in your list.

 Hi,
 
 
 Thanks for your help on this.  My .e/e/modules/ directory is empty.  I
 run Arch Linux, and I've set up all the libraries, applications and
 modules as packages which pull from CVS, build packages and then install
 under the prefix /opt/e17.  Below is the file list from the e17-net
 module package:
 
 /opt/e17/lib/enlightenment/modules/net/e-module-net.edj
 /opt/e17/lib/enlightenment/modules/net/linux-gnu-x86_64/module.a
 /opt/e17/lib/enlightenment/modules/net/linux-gnu-x86_64/module.so
 /opt/e17/lib/enlightenment/modules/net/module.desktop
 /opt/e17/lib/enlightenment/modules/net/net.edj
 /opt/e17/share/locale/it/LC_MESSAGES/net.mo
 
 This is a file list of the e17-wlan package, a module which is working:
 
 /opt/e17/lib/enlightenment/modules/wlan/e-module-wlan.edj
 /opt/e17/lib/enlightenment/modules/wlan/linux-gnu-x86_64/module.a
 /opt/e17/lib/enlightenment/modules/wlan/linux-gnu-x86_64/module.so
 /opt/e17/lib/enlightenment/modules/wlan/module.desktop
 /opt/e17/lib/enlightenment/modules/wlan/wlan.edj
 /opt/e17/share/locale/eo/LC_MESSAGES/wlan.mo
 /opt/e17/share/locale/fi/LC_MESSAGES/wlan.mo
 /opt/e17/share/locale/it/LC_MESSAGES/wlan.mo
 /opt/e17/share/locale/ja/LC_MESSAGES/wlan.mo
 /opt/e17/share/locale/sv/LC_MESSAGES/wlan.mo

sloppy packaging. why package the module.a files? they are entirely unneeded.
als e-module-wlan.edje seems out of place - it's not in the src.

 The package manager makes sure old files get removed and so the files
 would all be up to date.  There is a module.desktop under a modules/net
 directory.  Any other ideas as to what could go wrong?

yes. modules should exclude *.a files. libtool insists on creating them and
installing them because it thinks its needed as we will then use them (libtldl
in theory can in combination with module.la). note that the sample package
files for e17 remove any .a's for modules

 Raster,
 
 I do have to (respectfully) disagree with you on this one. I just 
 checked the official E modules installations, and they are also 
 installing module.a files in /usr/lib/enlightenment/modules/module.

that's what i said. libtool insists on creating AND installing them. it's
partof libtool and how it decides to build and install things when it comes to
loadable modules. it ASSUMEs we will use libltdl to load them. libltdl CAN
load .a files if you also have a .la file - for systems that do
not support .so's. thankfully for us - we don't care about systems that do NOT
support .so's (if you have one - too bad. it probably should have died long
ago, like 20 years ago). libtool is just being utterly stupid with
regards to modules. packages should strip .a's and 'la's for modules out. unless
you know some magic hidden libtool foo that will stop this from happening? i
have yet to find/know of any.

 Hello,
 
 The temperature mod reads 'Temp' instead of displaying the actual 
 temperature.  I have a temp probe, and I can read the temperature in 
 BIOS.  Do I need to install a certain kernel module in order for this to 
 work?

the temperature module looks at a few places. 

/proc/acpi/thermal_zone...
/proc/omnibook/temperature...
/sys/devices/temperatures/cpu_temperature...
/sys/bus/i2c/devices/...

got temp sensors here - it will find one. if not - then it won't.

there is, and will be, no system tray support in e17. use something else like

 Thank you for adding me to your mail list. I have looked at the FAQ and 
 unless I missed it, I did not see my situation there. That being said, I 
 installed e17 on my existing Linux Mint (using edgy 6.10). It works 
 wonderfully, however, I noticed that there is no system tray available. 
 There is no way to see my programs that are running in the background. 
 Such as, (any) messenger, Amarok. While with most programs, all I need 
 to do to activate the active program is to click on that programs 
 starter, programs like Skype will open a new window leaving no way to 
 access the already opened window.
 
 Thank you in advance for considering this situation.

 Hi,

   I have some questions about Evas on DirectFB.
   I made some tests of Evas on an embedded system, first on framebuffer and
 then with DirectFB. And the result is that Framebuffer test is really faster
 than DirectFB one. There's practically a factor 2 between them. Does anybody
 knows why there is such a difference between them ? (I checked and DirectFB
 use the acceleration of my system.) I looked at DirectFB module in Evas
 source code. I saw that a 32 bits ARGB backbuf is used. Why this choice has
 been made instead of a 16bits RGB for example ? Thanks for yours answers,

32bit doesn't lose quality. it also easily suports an inline alpha channel.
16bit does not. you need to do a separate alpha plane. also its lower quality.
the software enigne is 32bit. also remember evas's dfb engine is very much a
2nd class citizen and is mostly not maintained.

  I believe this is how E17 is designed - and I've been using it for so

 It maybe how its designed, but to scroll desktops by mouse wheel is not set
 by default.  As its not, the full power of having xinerama run with
 independent heads is lost.

heads are independant in e17 always in xinerama - you simply added a binding
for wheel on the desktop bg. alt+mouse wheel has always changed desktops -
anywhere (even over a window). if you use alt+shift+arrow keys it will change
desktops (independently), as will ctrl+alt+left/right, alt+f1,f2,f3... and the
pager too will change desktops on THAT screen only.

 To scroll the desktops via mouse wheel is a feature I have enjoyed since e16
 was in the Debian repositories and missed it when e17 first started up.  I
 never expected to get independent heads and this is unique in all the window
 managers I have tried with xinerama. 
 
 Feature Request: please set as default to scroll desktops via mouse wheel.

no - it's very bad to have by default. it is very easy to scroll the wheel
accidentally on the desktop - especially with middle mouse click menu. then
suddenly your virtual desktop changes as well as the menu popping up. it's bad.
if you really want it - add it by all means, but by default it's a bad idea for
usability. especially for new users. we do have alt+mousewheel by default
EVERYWHERE do this (actually missed popup by default - added).

Re: [e-users] dual screen / fallow mouse option

2007-05-30 Thread The Rasterman
On Mon, 28 May 2007 18:11:31 +0200 minimec [EMAIL PROTECTED] babbled:

This is an application-level issue. some apps remember their location on
screen. the apps have no idea that each screen is treated differently by the
wm, but they blindly ask for their location of +1700+20 (the right screen). e
obeys and puts them there. you need to use window remember and locks features
for these apps. remember the locks, and lock the program from changing position.

 Hi
 
 From time to time I read some threads about e17 and a two screen
 configuration. So there are at least some 'two-screen' users among us.
 
 In may daily use of e17 with a dual screen configuration with Xinerama I
 have become aware of different behaviour, when I open software.
 
 OpenOffice, Scribus, Nautilus for example do remember the screen, where they
 were opened the last time.
 Thunar, Firefox, gnome-terminal on the other hand do not. They open on the
 screen, the pointer (mouse) is in.
 
 I would like to have some kind of 'fallow mouse/pointer option' in the
 windows properties menu, to influence the default opening behaviour of
 software. I guess, you could put it in the 'remember' section. I want all my
 software to open in the screen, my mouse pointer is in.
 
 I do agree with you, that moving a window from one screen to the other is
 not a big deal, but that option would allow me to group the windows exactly
 the way I want. And all that in a very easy way.
 
 And there is another argument. ;) That option would allow me to switch of
 one screen, when I don't need it, without having some 'lost' windows all the
 time.
 
 I am not a developer and I don't know if such an option is easy to
 implement, but I would love that ...
 
 
  Thanks for reading

 Hi there,
 I'm struggling using the windows keys under E17.
 
 I like to use the left windows key (between Ctrl and Alt on the left
 side of the space bar) and the right windows key (between the AltGr
 and Ctrl on the right side of the space bar) as two separate keys.
 
 I messed around with the .Xmodmap and got Super_L for the left windows
 key and Super_R for the right windows key.
 
 However both are not usable under E17.

run xev - in the window press your left and right windows keys. in the key
release events look at the state: value (possible 0x40 - it is for me). is the
state the same when you press the left or right windows key? :)

 
 Actually I like to have combinations like:
 Super_L + e 
 Super_R + t 
 aso.
 
 
 How can I achieve this?

 I believe that it is a bad decision not to have text files containing

 which makes many configure items scriptable. 

why? so you can hack the config - break its syntax, cause developers to have to
write more and more code to adjust for human error? sure. there is no way to
LIST everything that is remembered - but it works on the basis that you
remember something and when you see its starting and don't want it remembered
anymore - the window is right there for you to go to and say hey stop that.

 Do I have a way to configure this without mouse?

yes. you started the apps with a mouse the first time - most likely, or key
binding. just go select them to start on login etc. etc. and do it once - no
different to having to bring up a text editor - learn some config format (even
a standard format like xml you will need to learn all the tags used). what
is so bad about just being able to click a please start this button? why is
it people get so up tight about that?

  |   configure:20360: result: libraries /usr/X11R6/lib,
  | headers /usr/X11R6/include
  | 
  | I wonder if it didn't mean AC_PATH_XTRA functioned correctly.
  | AC_PATH_XTRA seems to be used by Eterm and E16, too.
  | If AC_PATH_XTRA really doesn't cover /usr/X11R6/lib, is it possible to
  | build imlib2, Eterm, and E16 normally?
  
  I added AC_MSG_WARN( $X_LIBS / $X_CFLAGS ) to configure.in
  after AC_PATH_XTRA macro of each of evas, imlib2, and e16, and run those
  autogen.sh files again at the same time to know what value the macro
  returns. Here are what I modified in each configure.in:
  
  1) evas :
  if test x$have_evas_software_x11 = xyes; then
AC_PATH_XTRA
AC_MSG_WARN( $X_LIBS / $X_CFLAGS )
AC_CHECK_HEADER(X11/X.h,
  [
AC_MSG_WARN( $X_LIBS / $X_CFLAGS )
AC_DEFINE(BUILD_ENGINE_SOFTWARE_X11, 1, [Software X11 Rendering
  Backend]) x_dir=${x_dir:-/usr/X11R6}
x_cflags=${x_cflags:--I${x_includes:-$x_dir/include}}
x_libs=${x_libs:--L${x_libraries:-$x_dir/lib}} -lX11 -lXext
  ],
  [
AC_MSG_RESULT(disabling software X11 engine)
have_evas_software_x11=no
  ]
)
  fi
  AM_CONDITIONAL(BUILD_ENGINE_SOFTWARE_X11, test x$have_evas_software_x11 =
  xye s)
  
  2) imlib2
  if test x$have_x = xyes; then
AC_PATH_XTRA
AC_MSG_WARN( $X_LIBS / $X_CFLAGS )
x_dir=${x_dir:-/usr/X11R6}
x_cflags=${x_cflags:--I${x_includes:-$x_dir/include}}
x_libs=${x_libs:--L${x_libraries:-$x_dir/lib}} -lX11 -lXext
AM_CONDITIONAL(BUILD_X11, true)
  
  3) e16
  AC_PATH_X
  AC_PATH_XTRA
  AC_MSG_WARN( $X_LIBS / $X_CFLAGS )
  
  AC_CHECK_HEADERS(alloca.h locale.h stdarg.h wctype.h)
  
  And the results are:
  1) evas
  checking for IceConnectionNumber in -lICE... no
  configure: WARNING:   -LNONE /  -INONE 
  checking for X11/X.h... (cached) yes
  configure: WARNING:   -LNONE /  -INONE 
  checking whether software 16bit x11 backend is to be built... no
  
  2) imlib2
  checking for IceConnectionNumber in -lICE... yes
  configure: WARNING:   -L/usr/X11R6/lib /  -I/usr/X11R6/include 
  checking for dlopen in -ldl... yes
  
  3) e16
  checking for IceConnectionNumber in -lICE... yes
  configure: WARNING:   -L/usr/X11R6/lib /  -I/usr/X11R6/include 
  checking alloca.h usability... yes
  
  According to the results above, it looks like somehow AC_PATH_XTRA macro
  didn't work correctly in evas. I wonder why...
  
 You could try moving AC_PATH_XTRA out to global scope, e.g. before the 
 first AC_CHECK_HEADER(X11/X.h,.
 I think I have seen strangeness with some autoconf macros when placed 
 inside an if block.

could be - but same thing in imlib2 works fine? this is truly bizarre.

babbled:

i also added an AC_PATH_X before XTRA and it seems to work... - cvs update and
see?

 Hi all
 
 I still don't know what really causes this problem, but as Kim-san told me,
 at laset when I put the first AC_PATH_XTRA before the if clause, the macro
 seems to return the correct value.
 
 Here's the one I modified:
 
   AC_PATH_XTRA
 if test x$have_evas_software_ddraw = xyes; then
 #  AC_PATH_XTRA
   AC_CHECK_HEADER(ddraw.h,
 ( snip )
AC_MSG_RESULT($have_evas_software_x11)
 ]
 )
 #  AC_PATH_XTRA
 if test x$have_evas_software_x11 = xyes; then
   AC_PATH_XTRA
   AC_MSG_WARN( $X_LIBS / $X_CFLAGS )
   AC_CHECK_HEADER(X11/X.h,
 [
   AC_MSG_WARN( $X_LIBS / $X_CFLAGS )
   AC_DEFINE(BUILD_ENGINE_SOFTWARE_X11, 1, [Software X11 Rendering
 Backend]) x_dir=${x_dir:-/usr/X11R6}
 
 And the result is:
 
 checking X11/X.h presence... yes
 checking for X11/X.h... yes
 checking whether software x11 backend is to be built... yes
 checking for gethostbyname... (cached) yes
 checking for connect... (cached) yes
 checking for remove... (cached) yes
 checking for shmat... (cached) yes
 checking for IceConnectionNumber in -lICE... (cached) yes
 configure: WARNING:   -L/usr/X11R6/lib -L/usr/X11R6/lib /
 -I/usr/X11R6/in lude -I/usr/X11R6/include 
 checking for X11/X.h... (cached) yes
 configure: WARNING:   -L/usr/X11R6/lib -L/usr/X11R6/lib /
 -I/usr/X11R6/in lude -I/usr/X11R6/include 
 checking whether software 16bit x11 backend is to be built... no
 
 But I know this isn't a solution for this problem. As Raster-san told me, for
 now, it seems to be the only workaround for this problem to use CFLAGS and
 LDFLAGS to set the appropriate directories, or it may be necessary to
 re-install autoxxx stuff.
 
 Thanks for many helps.
 Regards.

babbled:

but a catch - none of EFL does 3d (opengl) - except an opengl backend fo revas.
evas is strictly 2d. we are not doing 3d. (we have enough to do with our
limited resources). there are plenty of 3d game engines and other 3d systems
you can use if you want to do 3d. :)

 i was going through the efl docs, mainly the enlightenment design document
 and it mentioned how efl may not be the best choice for graphing
 applications (vector based drawing, etc...).
 
 i have an interest in developing visualizations for scientific applications,
 mainly interactive graphing, animated graphs with smooth transitions, using
 openGL for 3D display (think VMD http://www.ks.uiuc.edu/Research/vmd/ ,
 rasmol) and plotting data.
 
 so in my opinion, efl makes sense when interfaces can be easily prepared
 (edje, ruby with edje) and kept separate with high speed C/C++ code at
 backend.
 
 but then again, i don't know much. so, what would be a good design decision
 here.
 
 thanks,

  I've been using powertop to reduce the number of wakeups on my laptop,

 Yup, I only have the pager module enabled, no activity and no windows aside 
 from the powertop xterm.
 
  I think the 3rd party net/wlan modules caused a lot more wakes than just 
  4... I'm not sure how low you can go, since I can't see less than 61 wakes 
  from the radeon driver, but with e17 idle in xorg, I get 99% of the time 
  in C3. 
 
 True, the ipw2100 and the usb mouse cause ~4/sec each and prevent the kernel 
 from reaching C3. With both of these gone and NoDRI for the radeon driver, I 
 can get the kernel into C3 state most of the time with ~6-8 wakeups/sec. Of 
 this, e17 is 4/sec, hence it would be nice to find the culprit and (if 
 possible) remove it.

if the mouse causes 4 interrupts/sec - this probably cause mouse events? thus x
wakeups and then e wakeups to get the events.

those 4 could be:

1. something polling - what, i don't know, but you will need to strace and/or
debug and find out. as already pointed out some modules like to poll - but most
of them its in the 1 per second or multiple seconds between polls (except
cpufreq.
2. it could be the result of an x client changing a property etc etc. like a
titlebar etc. see #1 - need to debug.
3. every 10 secs e pings x clients to see if they are alive if they say they do
the netwm ping protocol, but if you have enough windows these pings won't
happen at the same time so they will be spread out based on when the window
came up.

i share your desire to reduce this, though 4/sec is really minimal when you
think about it :)

  they do the netwm ping protocol, but if you have enough windows these pings
  won't happen at the same time so they will be spread out based on when the
  window came up.
 

 Would it make sense to just have e ping all windows at the same time. 

yes. :)

 This would mean that a new window might not get pinged for almost 20s, 

actually up to 10 secs. if you ping every window that needs pinging every ping
cycle.

 but is that so bad. I think as soon as one has a large amount of windows 
 open (which I have all the time, hell why not use all those virtual 
 desktops :)) this method would be better even if the polling was reduced 
 to 5s. I don't know how feasible this is and I know you have a lot more 
 important things on your plate it's just an idea.

it is feasible - just needs doing. :) it's not that hard actually.

  i share your desire to reduce this, though 4/sec is really minimal when you
  think about it :)
 

 I agree. Sony disables the hpet timer in bios and don't put an option in 
 to enable it. I have ~ 100 wakeups/s just caused by the kernel because 
 of this.

hahahaha - poor bugger. so e is the least of your problems then :(

 rant
 The Sony bios really sucks. They have a bloody option to enable/disable 
 a bios splash screen, but both hpet and virualization support are 
 disabled and no way of enabling them.  This is on an vaio sz, so their 
 business line laptops.

  if the mouse causes 4 interrupts/sec - this probably cause mouse events? 
  thus x wakeups and then e wakeups to get the events.
 
 Nope, the 4/sec are just the usb hcd polling. When I move the mouse, or use
 the trackpoint, then I get a ton of wakeups. Also, the X wakeups are usually
 around 1/sec in idle, which implies that it's not pass-through X-events that
 are triggering it.

aaah.

  1. something polling - what, i don't know, but you will need to strace 
  and/or debug and find out. 
 
 Yeah, I started to use strace and there were a bunch of select() which
 probably are the cause. There was some mention of a similar problem with
 WindowMaker, so I'll look into that patch to see what was done to eliminate
 those wakeups.

well really - the wakeups are either input on an fd (eg from x or a socket
etc.) OR its a timer. you simply need to find out what the timers are that are
ticking off - once you know this - you know what to look for. :)

  i share your desire to reduce this, though 4/sec is really minimal when you
  think about it :)
 
 It remains to be determined if it makes any real difference, but so far 
 powertop has been pretty effective at reducing the power consumption of my 
 thinkpad, so we'll see...

sure. at this stage i'd consider this low priority or even an e18 thing, but
if you find out what it is - do tell.

  1. something polling - what, i don't know, but you will need to strace

  polls (except cpufreq.
 
 Which reminds me... glib recently added lower precision timers so that
 they can reduce their wake-ups by grouping their sleep timeouts
 together better. Do the current ecore timer's do this effectively
 enough or should we be considering this type of API?

so have fuzzy timers i.e - tick off timer in X seconds give or take Y (so
ecore will try batch them if it can). possibly usefl.

 If four modules get initialized at slightly different times and have 1
 second timeouts, it seems like you could easily end up with four
 wakeups per second.

i think that fixing this by providing a shared universal poll timer would be
the way to go. modules simple choose how many poll timeouts to skip before
polling again - so something like

e_polltimer_add(1, _my_func, data); will be called every timer
e_polltimer_add(4, _my_func, data); will be called every 4th poll timer interval

intervals MUST be a power of 2 (1, 2, 4, 8, 16 etc.) so that they are always in
sync so all the 2's tick off together or all the 8's. the polltimer code will
literally set up longer timer during the shared gaps. i.e.

1 1 1 1 1 1 1
2   2   2   2
4   4

so if the 1 interval timer goes away the poll interval basically doubles to 2
(and if the 2 timer also goes away then its every 4 intervals which might be 1
second for example).

 Basically, yes, but in glib's case they are just timers that accept
 seconds instead of smaller units. So you can have a repeating timer
 that triggers every second at most. These are then grouped like you
 mentioned for the polltimer.

 This seems reasonable as well, but it would be nice to see it in ecore
 instead of E itself.

sure. if you think it will be generally useful - having ecore_timers WITH a
error range is kind of useful - but a polltimer could be a perfect soln - and
really efficient.

babbled:

entrance has nothing to do with bling. it's for e17. bling wont be touched,
looked at loaded or run until e17 starts. you have some other problem on your
hands. somethng much deeper - like some shared lib that e apps use (evas, edje,
ecore, eet, or something) has been screwed maybe?

 Hello everyone.
 I have e17 installed from Debian packages onto an Etch netinst. Things were
 grand, and I was all hot to get this ITask NG thing installed which needed
 the Bling module to be enabled. I've enabled Bling, and it worked great,
 until I rebooted. Entrance now begins to start, but locks up in a looping
 cycle of flashing a gray background at me for less than half a second, then
 the screen goes dead for a couple seconds, then it flashes again. In the
 gray screen I can see the cursor ' X ' , but it is unresponsive. The
 keyboard is also unresponsive (I can't switch to a different shell and try
 to kill Entrance) and I must reboot. I can boot into single-user mode, and
 have tried to uninstall the Bling module to see if that helps, but the
 dependancy chain is complicated and wants me to uninstall the e17 virtual
 packages as well, leaving me unEnlightened. I cannot start enlightenment
 manually (using #startx /usr/bin/enlightenment_start) as it segfaults
 immediately, presenting me with the This is very bad... message, and
 cannot Recover. Is there a way to disable this module, or prevent it from
 being loaded? I've tried clearing the .cfg files in my user folder, but that
 has not been effective. Even better, is there a way to convince Bling to not
 crash? The bit of it that I saw was nice and shiney, and I'd like to keep it
 :D
 
 Thanks!

 have you tried 'automatic hinting' (in the advanced fonts dialog)?
 this looks much better on my high-dpi lcd.
 
 it seems qt uses a different font rendering library. the fonts look a
 bit more bold. so i guess they dont use freetype 

some distributions do not compile freetype to be able to do bytecode hinting.
evas by default tries to use bytecode hinting. if freetype does not have this
enabled your fonts will look nasty and blurry. automatic hinting is next best
in terms of rendering - then none (which is what you get in the above
situation). this really isn't e or evas's fault - it's a problem with patents
on bytecode hinting, apple and the fact that many distributions simply don't
ship correct headers fro freetype2 AND that you can't query runtime what
hinting it can do.

what does mplayer's .desktop file look like? e escapes the filenames it passes
in. if the cmd-line for mplayer changed from

  mplayer %f

or

  mplayer

(where it assumes you just add the filename after the command)

to

  mplayer '%f'

then that'd explain it. that'd be a bad .desktop file as e is doing the right
thing by escaping to make sure any filename works. the last command there will
fail if the filename has a ' in it too.

 Hello.
 
 Ordinarily, internal filemanager in E17 opens video files in mplayer
 when i double click them.
 But if filename contains an apostroph, it fails with the following message:
 
 
 Error Information:
 An exit code of 2 was returned from mplayer
 '/home/ptomaine/.dc++/Downloads/7/Friends - 7x20 - TOW Rachel\'s Big
 Kiss.avi'.
 
 Output Data:
 There was no output
 
 Error Logs:
 /bin/bash: -c: line 0: unexpected EOF while looking for matching `''
 /bin/bash: -c: line 1: syntax error: unexpected end of file
 
 
 And for the other file
 
 
 Error Information:
 An exit code of 2 was returned from mplayer
 '/home/ptomaine/.dc++/Downloads/7/Friends - 7x19 - TOW Ross and

 Another files are opening ok. I assume this is a bug.

Re: [e-users] Favorite Application Menu

2007-07-20 Thread The Rasterman
On Tue, 12 Jun 2007 01:47:32 -0600 Michael Jones [EMAIL PROTECTED] babbled:

transient issues and will be worked on (for exebuf). as for menu - you can to
sub-menus - just need to write up a custom .menu xml goop ball that has them :)

 I'm curious... is there any way to get the new application menu handling
 (the favorites.menu XML file) to behave as the old (folder) method did?
 
 Since I had my favorite menu structure set up long before e was able to
 handle .desktop files, I am quite used to being able to right click on
 the desktop and select from my top used apps, or select a folder and
 select a lesser used app from that same menu.  But with the new
 structure, I don't see any way of splitting this up into folders... not
 to mention that most of the apps don't show up as an option when I type
 the first few characters in a run box.
 
 TIA

not sure - my startup dir stopped working a bit ago but i haven't checked into

 Hi,
 
 I try to start the gnome-settings-daemon at E17 startup. So I created a
 gnome-settings-daemon.desktop in /home/andreas/.e/e/applications/all
 with this content:
 
 [Desktop Entry]
 Encoding=UTF-8
 Name=Gnome Settings Daeom
 Comment=

 Terminal=0
 Type=Application
 Categories=Graphics;Application
 
 Then a .order file in /home/andreas/.e/e/applications/startup with this
 content:
 
 gnome-settings-daemon.desktop
 
 But it doesn't start at startup time. I tried other applications and
 they work well. The gnome-settings-daemon works also well if I exec it
 from command line. So why doesn't it work as expected?

 I changed the problem temporary by using gtk2-theme-switch instead of

 I didn't notice it.
 
 The app dir has at least another problem. I wasn't able to create a

 I'll do an update the next days. Perhaps this problem got fixed.
 
 BTW: I know currently we use .desktop instead of edj files for the

 animations. It doesn't work if I write it into .order and doesn't work
 if I set it as .desktop icon. So how could I do this?

you can use a .edj as the icon for the .desktop - the old .eap file edj format
(the icon group) still works as an icon.

 -display DISPLAY
 Connect to display named DISPLAY.
 EG: -display :1.0
 -fake-xinerama-screen WxH+X+Y
 Add a FAKE xinerama screen (instead of the real ones)
 given the geometry. Add as many as you like. They all
 replace the real xinerama screens, if any. This can
 be used to simulate xinerama.
 EG: -fake-xinerama-screen 800x600+0+0 -fake-xinerama-screen

 -profile CONF_PROFILE
 Use the configuration profile CONF_PROFILE instead of the
 user selected default or just default.
 -good
 Be good.
 -evil
 Be evil.
 -psychotic
 Be psychotic.
 
 What happen if i pass one of last three arguments to the exec?
 Or better, what's the difference between good, evil and psychotic? :-)
 Thanks.

we would not like that - mainly because it makes it a lot harder to debug

 Hi to all. Yesterday I updated my E17 via CVS, deleted my .e folder and
 started from a fresh instalation. Then update the e_modules, compiled and
 installed the ones that i like, but when started con load and configure
 them, I realized that some features (like mouse configuration, borders, etc)
 now are modules , is that correct? I've reacently added myself to the
 mailing list (so didn't read anything in cvs mail list), but there's nothing
 in E's main page. Is there a place where I can read new features form
 version to version? I mean, features that users can see

yes - they have become modules. i intend to have all config dialogs become
modules - except the modules config dialog. :) the point is to 1. allow people
to only load what they need or want - config included, and 2. allow it to be
replaced or improved or customised by others without having to patch e's src.

Re: [e-users] Does E DR17 have a think like KDE's kdesktop?

 Greetings.
 
 I stop in and try out Enlightenment every year or so.  I always think
 happily of the E DR13.  It is the program that made me want to use
 Linux in the first place.  My favorite part was the pager--small
 old-fashioned televisions showing desktops, with spotlights that
 pointed at the active desktop.  There has never been another program
 that represented such originality.
 
 I'm wondering if there is a background manager in E now that will make
 it easier to use edje objects.  In the KDE desktop, there's a desktop

in e17 wallpapers ARE edje objects. the desktop is a window (overlayed over
root) by e. you don't see the root window in e17. e17 itself controls your
desktop bg with an iron fist :) it's part of the wm and under the wm's control.
desktop icons are there now as part of the filemanager code in e17. any
module in e17 can extend the wm and as a result - can find where e keeps its
desktop canvases (look into the managers then the containers in each mnager -
and each container has zones). modules are just code and can create any objects
they like, from anywhere and do anything.

 manager called kdesktop wallpaper and you can set it to run slideshows
 on collections of directories--it randomly shows jpg files at
 intervals you specify.The last time I tried E, I could not find a
 brain-free way to do that, and had to write some code to talk to the E
 environment.  Even then, the small jpg files got turned into huge
 uncompressed edje files that filled up my home directory.

edje files are compressed. they also STORE the image in the file so you include
a wallpaper -t he image itself gets inlined (there are various compression
schemes from RAW (no compression) to COMP (zlib - no loss in quality) and LOSSY
(jpeg compression - inlined into the .edj). the .edj is stand-alone and
independent - it does not require any files outside - not the original wallpaper
or anything. that's why its big - you can email your .edj to a friend - and it
will work. out of the box. nothing left to do.

it IS possible to have a .edj refer to an image externally - if you really
want, but now you can easily break the wallpaper by moving/deleting the
original image and you can't just send your designs to your friends as the .edj
depends on another file in a particular path in your filesystem. the encoding
scheme for these is USER (as opposed to COMP, RAW and LOSSY). not with LOSSY
you also provide a quality parameter - this determines how much compression you
get. e17's wallpaper import dialog lets you choose this - so it is up to you
how big these things should be. the choices are there.

as for a slideshow - this could be done by a fairly simple module. yes. it
needs code. the main point for us here in development is that we have all the
hooks there needed to make this possible. we can't go write some module/feature
for every single thing someone may want. we cater for the most desired,
necessary and important ones. we need to focus on these and the core - and get
that right. all the 11 features people want - we can worry about later or
others can fill in the gaps already via modules.

Re: [e-users] how to create the edj files using existing image

2007-08-11 Thread The Rasterman

 In the graphical interface for the background, I noticed the option to
 use an existing image.
 
 I notice a wonderful effect in my backgrounds directory--the first two
 edj files are not massive!  The last two are the usual big ones.

 Can somebody please tell me a scriptable way to create these smaller
 edj files?  The only way I know now to create edj files is e17setroot,
 and it always makes the huge ones.  If I could create the edj files,
 then I could run a script to randomly change backgrounds in E17

see my other mail - the image encoding is USER instead of COMP, LOSSY etc.
check the .edc. nb - i just fixed edje_decc to properly ignore USER provided
images when decompiling - so it should work now.

well enable composite support in e17, use bling and use a theme that has a
semi-transparent theme for the shelf (or make your own).

 btw: i'm using E 0.40 from cvs with cthulhain theme, and the shelf
 only contained ibar and has cthulhain's theme too

 Hi,
 
 Restart does not help. It's like that from boot. Been like that since I 
 move screen to right-of-main.
 Was ok when I had screen left-of-main.

these are e menus? ie menus y get when alt+right click on app window or click

   Greetings.
  
   I stop in and try out Enlightenment every year or so.  I always think
   happily of the E DR13.  It is the program that made me want to use
   Linux in the first place.  My favorite part was the pager--small
   old-fashioned televisions showing desktops, with spotlights that
   pointed at the active desktop.  There has never been another program
   that represented such originality.
  
   I'm wondering if there is a background manager in E now that will make
   it easier to use edje objects.  In the KDE desktop, there's a desktop
 
  in e17 wallpapers ARE edje objects. the desktop is a window (overlayed over
  root) by e. you don't see the root window in e17. e17 itself controls your
  desktop bg with an iron fist :) it's part of the wm and under the wm's
  control. desktop icons are there now as part of the filemanager code in
  e17. any module in e17 can extend the wm and as a result - can find where e
  keeps its desktop canvases (look into the managers then the containers in
  each mnager - and each container has zones). modules are just code and can
  create any objects they like, from anywhere and do anything.
 
   manager called kdesktop wallpaper and you can set it to run slideshows
   on collections of directories--it randomly shows jpg files at
   intervals you specify.The last time I tried E, I could not find a
   brain-free way to do that, and had to write some code to talk to the E
   environment.  Even then, the small jpg files got turned into huge
   uncompressed edje files that filled up my home directory.
 
  edje files are compressed. they also STORE the image in the file so you
  include a wallpaper -t he image itself gets inlined (there are various
  compression schemes from RAW (no compression) to COMP (zlib - no loss in
  quality) and LOSSY (jpeg compression - inlined into the .edj). the .edj is
  stand-alone and independent - it does not require any files outside - not
  the original wallpaper or anything. that's why its big - you can email
  your .edj to a friend - and it will work. out of the box. nothing left to
  do.
 
 
 When all is said and done, I think I'm trying to revise edje_cc to
 allow a USER command line option.   I have been reading your code in
 CVS and experimenting with things.
 
 I felt pretty enthusiastic about your comment last month that E might
 work on a Nokia N800 tablet. I just got one of those and it is a bit
 ugly in the interface.
 
 I want the extrenal random backgrounds  because I have about 12,000
 jpg background images sitting in a directory structure.  It is too
 tedious to go pointing and clicking through them with the wallpaper
 tool to create the edj files. I don't mind the risk of breaking an edj
 file by removing a wallpaper.  (It could be the E wallpaper config
 thing needs a way to throw away badly formatted edj files.) )
 
 Here is the place where I am stuck.  It seems to me there is a
 mismatch between the edj files created by edje_cc and the ones created
 by the Wallpaper config tool.  To the best of my understanding, the
 Engrave file controls what edje_cc does, but these files are a bit
 tricky to write.  But I need to understand what will  work before I go
 too much further.  Here is the example config file--I created it from
 edje_decc and then edited.  I put in the full path to the image,
 otherwise edje_cc wouldn't work, and changed COMP to USER.  (Can't use
 edje_decc on edj files that have image as external reference--it
 fails).

  I use Xinerama in E17 and its fine and does all the right things.
  
  Test to see if Xinerama does the same mouse wierdness in another window
  manager. Xinerama should work fine in other wm's as it does in my laptop.
  So far I have found xinerama works as advertised in icewm, wmaker, e16,
  kde, except metacity, which is no great loss as E17 is far superior.
  (thanks E17 devs!) Check out what settings are required for xinerama for
  the machine's video card.  Its likely the solution is in the xorg.conf for
  the video card.

Re: [e-users] [Debian Sid] Reboot and shutdown buttons ?

2007-08-20 Thread The Rasterman
On Mon, 20 Aug 2007 16:04:50 +0200 giggz [EMAIL PROTECTED] babbled:

 [snip]
 
 Hi,
 
 I have installed the acpi-support package, but nothing more...
 
 but I have test e17 under root session through GDM. And under root I
 have my applications menu (!?!) and the halt/reboot buttons. When I
 compare the two .xsession-errors the only diffrences are :
 These 4 lines in the user .xsession-errors :
 ERROR: UNABLE TO ASSUME ROOT PRIVILEDGES
 ERROR: UNABLE TO ASSUME ROOT PRIVILEDGES
 ERROR: UNABLE TO ASSUME ROOT PRIVILEDGES
 ERROR: UNABLE TO ASSUME ROOT PRIVILEDGES

you problem is that that enlightenment_sys is NOT setuid root. something has
been broken in the debian packages. the source build for e17 sets this to be
setuid root (that means when this executable runs it runs AS ROOT). example:

[ 11:37PM /usr/local/bin ] ls -l enlightenment_sys 
20K -r-sr-xr-x 1 root root 19K 2007-08-20 08:05 enlightenment_sys*

see - it's got the sticky bit set (s) - that means its setuid to the owner of
the file (root in this case). i bet you whatever enlightenment_sys you have
installed it's not setuid root - thus it doesn't work.

beyond that - sysactions.conf is the config that defines commands to run (as
root) for given actions like reboot halt, suspend etc. and who is
allowed to run them. this config is intended for packagers and sysadmins to
alter to define what users can do these things, and what commands these
actions map to. on ubuntu the default config will allow any normal user who
has a reasonable set of privileges (as if they were an owner of the box) to
halt, reboot, suspend and hibernate - and the commands given in the default
config will work out of the box on ubuntu. your distribution may or may not
work - it is up to the sys admin and/or packager to fix this so it works - if
they want it to.

 In the root .xsession-errors I see something strange :
 ERROR: UNDEFINED ACTION: suspend
 ERROR: UNDEFINED ACTION: hibernate
 but these two actions are not defined and used in my
 /etc/enlightenment/sysactions.conf (I attach it at the end)

enlightenment itself looks for these actions. if it can't find them defined or
doesn't have permission to do them - it doesn't add them to the menu. this is
normal if you removed these actions from sysactions.conf

 So I think it's a right problem, but where can I take a look :
 sudo /sbin/shutdown -h now
 sudo /sbin/shutdown -r now
 work fine under a user session
 
 And Why can I have an application menu under root and not under my user
 ? Are the paths different ?

debian doesn't set up xdg menus correctly for users - they dont export any
environment variables to indicate which prefix the system menus should use,
thus efreet's standards compliant implementation doesn't work, because debian
is not standards compliant out of the box. you need to set environment
variables. my guess is that the root user has these set, but not normal users.
see the enlightenment.org wiki and the page about efreet and e17.

 Thanks!
 cheers,
 Guillaume
 
 
 
 (I'm not in the operator,staff,sys group)
 /etc/enlightenment/sysactions.conf :

 action:   rebootsudo /sbin/shutdown -r now

 no keybindings, no Fn keys, alt no longer functions, nothing.

strange.

 All this because I want a new background and for some reason, the
 picture selector window is completely greyed out when I try to select an
 image. One would think I could just place an .edj file in the
 backgrounds directory, and go into the enlightenment config, then just
 set the background in a text file, but wait, all the config files are
 binary now. Seems to be quite a step backwards, IMHO.

they have been binary since day 0 for e17. nothing new there. they are data
structures flattened out and are intended to be nicely machine readable.

 Any ideas on how to fix either of these problems?

no - i have never seen either of these problems. we will need help to track
down why this happens for you (and not for me - o other developers). if this
happened to us - we'd fix it.

  I think you need the hibernate package installed for these to work
  IIRC.
  
  The /etc/enlightenment/sysactions.conf file controls who has permission
  to shut down or reboot the computer from the E17 system menu.  It's got
  plenty of internal comments to help you figure it out.
 
 Cool I never realized that this file was there. However I noticed that
 when I install with --prefix=/usr it get's installed into
 /usr/etc/enlightenment. Now I don't know the exact FHS guidelines, but
 all other packages I have encountered so far put their configuration
 files in /etc/ even if you specify /usr as a prefix. Is this intended
 behaviour? (I'm aware that I can change this with --sysconfdir was just
 wondering)

yes - it's intended - because... --sysconfdir can do what you want :) it
otherwise means that e CAN be in a clean install prefix ENTIRELY - and e can
work this out runtime.

i.e.

use --prefix=/opt/apps/e17

but then after compiling and installing you decide e should be in /opt/e17 -
just:

mv /opt/apps/e17 /opt/e17

and e will work. it will figure out its new prefix. or:

--prefix=$HOME/apps/e17

then later you decide that you need to move it to /opt/e17 to share with other
users:

mv $HOME/apps/e17 /opt/e17

presto - e17 will work. the sysactions.conf will also follow etc.

  Hi,
 
  I have installed the acpi-support package, but nothing more...
 
  but I have test e17 under root session through GDM. And under root I
  have my applications menu (!?!) and the halt/reboot buttons. When I
  compare the two .xsession-errors the only diffrences are :
  These 4 lines in the user .xsession-errors :
  ERROR: UNABLE TO ASSUME ROOT PRIVILEDGES
  ERROR: UNABLE TO ASSUME ROOT PRIVILEDGES
  ERROR: UNABLE TO ASSUME ROOT PRIVILEDGES
  ERROR: UNABLE TO ASSUME ROOT PRIVILEDGES
  
  you problem is that that enlightenment_sys is NOT setuid root. something has
  been broken in the debian packages. the source build for e17 sets this to be
  setuid root (that means when this executable runs it runs AS ROOT). example:
  
  [ 11:37PM /usr/local/bin ] ls -l enlightenment_sys 
  20K -r-sr-xr-x 1 root root 19K 2007-08-20 08:05 enlightenment_sys*
  
  see - it's got the sticky bit set (s) - that means its setuid to the owner
  of the file (root in this case). i bet you whatever enlightenment_sys you
  have installed it's not setuid root - thus it doesn't work.
  
 
 Ouaou! yipeee! you're right!
 ll /usr/bin/enlightenment* gives me :
 -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 874K 2007-08-19 02:49 /usr/bin/enlightenment
 -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root  37K 2007-08-19 02:49 /usr/bin/enlightenment_fm
 -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 777K 2007-08-19 02:49 /usr/bin/enlightenment_imc
 -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root  99K 2007-08-19 02:49 /usr/bin/enlightenment_remote
 -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 8,8K 2007-08-19 02:49 /usr/bin/enlightenment_start
 -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 7,5K 2007-08-19 02:49 /usr/bin/enlightenment_sys
 -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root  26K 2007-08-19 02:49 /usr/bin/enlightenment_thumb
 
 I have done chmod +s /usr/bin/enlightenment_sys*, so I have now :
 -rwsr-sr-x 1 root root 7,5K 2007-08-19 02:49 /usr/bin/enlightenment_sys
 I don't have exactly the same right as you, but it's work out of the
 box! thx for that!!! I have my two halt and reboot icons!

:) something is wrong with the packages you have - they don't keep the suid bit
as per the install.

  beyond that - sysactions.conf is the config that defines commands to run (as
  root) for given actions like reboot halt, suspend etc. and who is
  allowed to run them. this config is intended for packagers and sysadmins to
  alter to define what users can do these things, and what commands these
  actions map to. on ubuntu the default config will allow any normal user
  who has a reasonable set of privileges (as if they were an owner of the
  box) to halt, reboot, suspend and hibernate - and the commands given in the
  default config will work out of the box on ubuntu. your distribution may
  or may not work - it is up to the sys admin and/or packager to fix this so
  it works - if they want it to.
  
 
 ok
 
  In the root .xsession-errors I see something strange :
  ERROR: UNDEFINED ACTION: suspend
  ERROR: UNDEFINED ACTION: hibernate
  but these two actions are not defined and used in my
  /etc/enlightenment/sysactions.conf (I attach it at the end)
  
  enlightenment itself looks for these actions. if it can't find them defined
  or doesn't have permission to do them - it doesn't add them to the menu.
  this is normal if you removed these actions from sysactions.conf
  
 
 ok
 
  So I think it's a right problem, but where can I take a look :
  sudo /sbin/shutdown -h now
  sudo /sbin/shutdown -r now
  work fine under a user session
 
  And Why can I have an application menu under root and not under my user
  ? Are the paths different ?
  
  debian doesn't set up xdg menus correctly for users - they dont export any
  environment variables to indicate which prefix the system menus should use,
  thus efreet's standards compliant implementation doesn't work, because
  debian is not standards compliant out of the box. you need to set
  environment variables. my guess is that the root user has these set, but
  not normal users. see the enlightenment.org wiki and the page about efreet
  and e17.
  
 
 Yes, I have read this wiki last week. I will try to export this variables...
 
 Big big Thx (I don't know if we say that in english...)

c'est d'accor mon ami :) tout le monde ne parles pas l'anglais courament, mais
c'set la langue d'intenrnet - l'anglaid de chaque personne n'est pas parfait :)

   `xset dpms force stanby` works just fine here.
  It seems to be working now, for no apparent reason... If if goes back

 It has failed again. And by looking at the mouse pointer, I have seen
 that it moves rapidly (as if it was shaking). It is likely this is the
 reason for power saving failing on my monitor, and the interaction

this would be the reason. i have heard this before. time to get a new mouse.

 between Enlightenment's own power saving settings and xset was just a
 coincidence.
 Is there any way I can make the computer disregard these erratic random
 mouse movements for the idle time calculation?

no. none that i know of. this is outside enlightenment'  domain - into
x/drivers.

 The ideal solution would be for the computer to use an intelligent
 algorithm to analyse the mouse movement and disregard noise. A worse
 solution would be for the computer to apply a digital filter to the
 mouse movement to disregard noise. An even worse solution
 (but still far better than the current situation) would be to ignore the
 mouse movement completely, and calculate idle time based solely on mouse
 clicks and keyboard activity. Can it be done?

[EMAIL PROTECTED] babbled:

   Just one additional question: when I want to watch TV and the computer
   will be without mouse or keyboard input, I raise the standby timeout. I
   wrote a script for that and bound controlaltw to it. 
   But I still have to disable the Enlightenment lock screen timeout...
   And enlightenment_remote seems unable to do it, so I have to
   use the mouse to navigate menus and uncheck the Lock when idle time
   exceeded option. 
   
   Is there any way I can do this from the command line?
  
  Well no.  I never implemented it. (the reason being below)
  I'll put it on my list though.  Do you follow cvs?
 Yes I follow CVS. 
 
   By the way, enlightenment_remote seems quite limited and I often find
   myself in need to use the mouse... which is not scriptable, which
   annoys me. 
  
  enlightenment_remote is limited because (as I understand it) only
  features that did not have a GUI were made available for
  enlightenment_remote.  Its as if dev would develop the feature, and then
  allow access to its config via enlightenment_remote.  Then as they
  develop the GUI for it they were to remove it.  But that has allways
  seemed silly to me, as everything *should* be scriptable.  But it seems
  (and this is just my perception) that enlightenment_remote is destined
  to be deprecated some day... once all features are available through a
  GUI.  But personally I feel that is a misfortune.  As a scriptable tool
  like that is so handy.
 It is more than a misfortune, it is an absurd. I could give you
 a lot of important reasons why scriptability is so important. What is
 the reason for scriptability to be left out? After all, we don't want to
 reinvent MS Windows, do we?
 
 To be able to script the lock screen timeout is specially important. Am
 I supposed to follow menus each time I want to watch TV? If it was
 scriptable, I could bind a key to it, so I would just press a key
 combination when I wanted to increase the timeout. I could even write
 a script that did this before calling the TV-viewing program, and
 restored the default configuration after the TV-viewing program ended.

actually this could be implemented if we provided actions to change config -
enlightenment_remote is an extreme inefficient and round-about way to do this.
enlightenment_remote is a pain to maintain - it is a large lump of code that
most people tend to never use. we are going to get rid of it.

your stop blanking while watching tv problem is the fact that your tv app...
is stupid. it does not suspend the screensaver (blanking) while watching tv.
this is an easy thing to do in x (if you use the xscreensaver extension) and it
should just do it automatically - WITHOUT you nbeeding to go bind keybindings
to run a program that then connects back to the wm that then changes a setting
(permanently) that then tells x to turn off dpms blanking (and then you need to
remember to turn it back on again too when done - you might forget and then
not get blanking).

 If you can implement this feature, I would be thankful. By the way, the
 Enlightenment team deserves congratulations for their excellent work.

you are talking to the wrong people - the tv app authors are the ones you want
to talk to. see above.

most cases for i need scriptability are simply work-arounds for bugs/lack of
features or lack of knowledge on how things work. for us maintaing
enlightenment_remote is a burden - it is a gateway for bugs and crashes -
already. if there is genuine need - we will have some remote control ability -
but only if there is need. we are looking to dump e_ipc and move control via
dbus and allow modules to extend dbus remote control.

 Hi! I just have a think to that, you could said that's wrong or not ;) I 
 just said that from my user side.
 But why shelves couldn't have an option to be placed not only on 
 screen's edges ?
 
 If i remenber, Mo0m spoke me about that some times ago, and i'm agree 
 with him, that's could be amazing.
 I'm agree with raster too, gadgets under windows is *not really* fun. 
 But peoples like me think that ibar, pager and ibox
 are sweet contained under shelves, but a rss feed (like erss), a mail 
 info box, a weather or a clock modules could get
 a place under windows.

nothing stops these doing that - but they don't use the gadget code. dropshadow
is a module - it draws shadows on the desktop - flame is the same. they can
display anywhere. they don't use the gadget handling code. this is all possible
- but i don't see the point of making some easy auto-layout infrastructure for
it all. gadcon was about bringing the myriad of gadgets under stricter control
where they can auto-layout better. the majority of gadgets want/need that. a
few don't. these few can place themselves as they like. it's not impossible -
it just is more manual/different.

 To conclude, i just want to know what a free placement option is so 
 deprecated ?

  Um... e16 should be compatible with just about anything, but engage

  EFL APIs move on, but engage has no maintenance being done.  So it sits
  and it's bits rot.
  
 
 It's such a shame because engage really had super qualities and appeal. 
 You're right about the APIs David. But on the cvs logs, I saw some minor 
 action in cvs several weeks ago. Not enough though to make it work right. 
 (or because I did not have enough information to make it work right due to 
 lack of doc).
 
 IMVHO, marrying a product to a particular OS or WM is a poor choice. 
 Making engage only compatible with E17 as a module and forsaking 
 standalone is a shame.
 
 I think that if engage standalone is to survive, it will have to fork off 
 the existing modular project and become independent. Next, it will have to 
 have a standardized, non-eap-style, method of accessing programs and 
 objects. .desktop files are so small as are most png files, there's no 
 point to package them.
 
 Anyway, thanks for preventing me from beating my head against a wall (for 
 now, anyway). :)

e17 no longer uses eaps - it uses .desktop files just like gnome/kde (it
follows the standards). again - it's in engage's ball court. efl/e has moved on
during development.

 All the e_utils are not built by default, you have to enable what ever
 ones you want built.
 
 e17setroot is considered to be an evil hack and raster has said he
 might remove support for it one day.

well not for it - specifically, but remove ipc support, and e17setroot is a
very evil hack to get transperency. imho - you want transparenecy - use a
composite manager and terminals with ARGB dest support.

 Well, I don't use e17 and don't know EFL, so I would not know what needs 
 to be done. I don't think porting it to gtk or qt is worth the time.

there is no need to port to gtk - there is simply need to keep up with small
api changes as we make them to underlying libraries - or even make use of new
libraries that bring support for things like fdo .desktop standards etc.

Hello,

currently it's only possible to place modules in the panels. I
remember the time when it was possible to place modules free in
size and position on the desktop background. This was a great
feature.

- Why was this feature removed?

- Will it come back?
   
   Why was this bug closed without any explanation?
   
   http://bugzilla.enlightenment.org/show_bug.cgi?id=170
   
   Perhaps I'm not able to find the option to place modules on the
   desktop. Or is this a not desired feature? Please give at least a
   short explanation. Thanks!
  
  it's not being added back because it's generally a silly feature
  (gadgets get covered by windows all the time) and no developer wants
  to spend time on it as the general view among the developers is that
 
 What is the difference to the desktop icons like trash, home folder and
 mount points? They're also covered by windows all the time. I don't
 think that one could argument that way. I could for example imagine
 that one screen holds all my nice and useful desktop modules. If I open
 no window there I've no problems. Don't assume how anybody uses a
 desktop environment. :-)
 
  it is a dubiously useful feature. patches accepted.
 
 This is good to read. In the past I waited for this feature to come
 back. Now I know that it'll not come back from alone. My knowledge of
 the EFL is growing more and more, but I never hacked in E itself. Are
 there any experienced E developers that like this feature too and will
 spend work for a solution?

NB: in theory gadcon (the new gadget system) CAN do this - you need to 1. add a
general 2d layout handler (the current is 1d), and 2. provide a gadcon on
the desktop. currently the only thing providing gadcons is the shelf. i
designed gadcon to be much more generic than the old gadman - so in theory
gadcons can go into popups, menus, titlebars, the desktop etc. BUT - i just
don't want to sink the time and effort into a 2d layout + gadcon provision for
the desktop.

as per my other mail- just because gadcon doesn't do this doesn't mean modules
can't go and create Desktop elements anyway. :)

either will do. bling's core is a chunk of code from xcompmgr :)

i really don't believe that. if you are doing this all the time - something is
deeply wrong. you are literally en-masse changing keybindings all the time?
why? i might touch them once on setup to add a few (eg my media keys), then not

launch some app or whatever. why do you need to keep changing them?

  like what? i hope you know by heart all the x keysym names then! what
  about the modifier your press? do you know if its Meta? Hyper? Super?
  What's the Keysym or Keycode for the play/pause button on your
  keyboard? what about the Shuffle button? E manages to remove
  needing to know any of this - it takes it from INPUT. if you need a
  feature (like having a universal modifier and changing it for all

  text editing as a crutch is a bad thing.
  
   * I can do that now by telling enlightenment_remote to dump the

   enlightenment_remote to delete the current keybindings, and then
   tell enlightenment_remote to add the keybindings from the edited
   dump. Sounds like it takes some time, but is far quickier than it
   would be to use the Enlighenment's GUI and click on each keybinding

 Changing most usage of the ALT modifier to WIN is something I do, but
 only on those odd occasions when I have to nuke my old config.  I use
 an enlightenment_remote based script for that.
 
 This is because more often that not, the ALT modified key/mouse
 bindings are used by other software that I use regularly.  The Second
 Life client is the main culprit though.

at which point to me it says that we need to virtualise some modifiers - i.e.
wm modifier and then let u set the wm modifier in just 1 place. maybe also
have some key and mouse bindings disabled when certain windows are in focus.
this stops you having to change config all the time and lets the wm do
everything for you - automatically.

[e-users] eet text file config...

2007-09-08 Thread The Rasterman
ok- for all the crazies out there who insist on text config files i added:

1. a little extra info to eet data blobs to also encode data type.
2. eet api to parse and dump text config files to and from eet config data blobs
3. a small eet util to extract, insert, encode and decode such blobs.

you will need to wrap this up yourself in shell scripts as you see fit - the
config format is very edc like (for edje files) and the parser is not forgiving
- make a mistake and it won't be happy and not tell you much.

you can extract e's config for example:

eet -d ~/.e/e/config/default/e.cfg config out.txt
vi out.txt
eet -e ~/.e/e/config/default/e.cfg config out.txt 1

any eet file can have elements extracted - if they are eet config blobs it can
decode. other blobs may be images or other data - the tool doesn't handle that.

beware - config files will be LONG. my e.cfg is a 20kb binary blob - but as
text expands to over 10,000 lines of config. parsing of these is slow compared
to the binary blobs which is lightning fast.

you have all u need to screw with files as you like - be warned that if you do
so you are on your own. i implemented this just to keep the i must have this
as text complainers happy. it doesn't buy you anything but a way of screwing
your config up. i issue this warning now.

 the onus on modules to extend the ipc as people need is much better
than what we have now.

  The current implementation of E IPC is pretty ugly, yes.  That doesn't

 Maybe I'm hallucinating, but I thought that a while back there was some 
 discussion on enlightenment-user about how some new code (gadcon?) would 
 make it much easier to add new actions to enlightenment_remote at the 

nup- gadcon and e_remote had nothing to do with eachother.

 same time as adding the corresponding GUI elements. Was I dreaming? This 
 sounded great to me at the time, because it seemed to suggest that 
 pretty much *everything* would automatically be made scriptable via 
 enlightenment_remote, without much extra coding effort.

no. not at all. that may have been dbus + modules extending the ipc and
allowing you to use standard dbus tools to send messages and get replies.

self-managed and if it changes in a completely incompatible way - e will nuke
it, otherwise it gets upgraded as you go.
 
   Now (since I ask this question) several people tell me the 
 opposite...So  I think that I won't remove the ~/.e/ until I get big 
 problem under E17...
 
 How can I know big changes of E17 ?
 I know that I can read comp.window-manager.e.cvs or 
 comp.window-manager.e.devel, but I'm not a developper and so I don't 
 understand the changes very well...Is there a place with understandly 
 changelog ?

no - not while we do development in cvs. you have the cvs commits mailing list
that lets you know what happens, when and by who though. all changes.

 Guillaume

 yes, if you unload a configuration module you do not have a gui to
 alter your config anymore, but your settings remain as they are.
 
 of course unloading modules you do not save disk space, you just
 have less memory occupation.

it saves VERY little memory - you will save a few Kb.

Re: [e-users] E17 Gnome compatibility

2007-09-22 Thread The Rasterman
On Sat, 22 Sep 2007 14:54:21 +0200 Andreas Volz [EMAIL PROTECTED] babbled:

 Hello,
 
  Enlightenment CVS committal
  
  Author  : raster
  Project : e17
  Module  : apps/e
  
  Dir : e17/apps/e/src/modules/wizard
  ...
  + *(current e defaults, windows-style or mac-style?).
  + * o  ask for what default wallpaper to use.
  + * o  ask if the user wants gnome or kde support
  + *(for gnome run gnome-settings-daemon, unknown for kde).
 
 I run E17, but use many Gnome and Gtk applications. So I'm still
 searching for the best Gnome compatibility. Here are my experiences:

same.

 o Use a .gtkrc-2.0:
 
 + Seems to be the easiest way to get Gtk support.
 + Easy to change with editor or various tools.
 - All the nice Gnome tools for menu settings size settings and other
 stuff doesn't work.
 
 0 Use gnome-settings-daemon:
 + Full Gnome support
 + Easy to use
 + All Gnome preference dialogs like fonts, menus, themes,... work.
 + Nice tools like gnome-keyring-manager are started
 - The gnome-settings-daemon seems to grab some key bindings (e.g. volume
 control on multimedia keyboards).
 - The Gnome screensaver and password dialog doesn't work good in a E17
 environment (sure it could be deactivated).
 
 0 Use xfce4-settings manager
 + Works similar to the gnome-settings-daemon
 + Like with gnome-settings-daemon a set of tools to configure lookfeel
 - same cons as with gnome-settings-daemon
 
 I'm not happy with any of the solutions. How do you use E17 and
 Gnome/Gtk app together?

well my plan was just to run gnome-settings-daemon, and allow access to the
gnome config utils from your .desktop files (and menus) under some special
gnome settings menu. ideally i'd also like to disable any gnome settings
(screensaver/lock, keybinding snarfing etc.) that conflict, but just running
gnome-settings-daemon and giving access to the gnome conf tools is a good first
step. it would be nice to have our own tool basically mimic all the things
gnome-settings-daemon does that gtk/gnome apps need - but i'd need to dig into
exactly all the things it does.

 I thought about forking gnome-settings-daemon. Then I could use all
 good things from it and remove all stuff that I don't like/need in E17.
 In combination with smart Gnome settings this should work the best.

also be the most work - maybe a longer term plan would be that, but the short
term just run gnome-settings-daemon?

 Andreas

   I've never seen this before, so I don't know where to look, but no 
   matter what E17 theme I have selected, but the windows from 'tsclient' 
   and 'rdesktop' show up with decorations from the default E17 theme and 
   not the theme I have selected.  Not that I mind too much 'cos it's still 
   beautiful, but I didn't even think there was a setting in E to cause 
   this to happen, so I certainly didn't set it.  Anyone have any idea why? 
   I can provide a screenshot if necessary.
   
  
  This sounds to me like those apps are using a border style that is not 
  included with any theme (ex: no_resize/dialog).
 
 I can confirm this. rdesktop on a e17 install from about 4 days ago
 always displays with the default theme.

not a bug - a fallback to the default when your current theme does not provide
the desired border style.

 Hello,
 Currently, enlightenment seems to used its own system to authenticate (at
 least for the lock screen). It would be nice if this can be converted to the
 system used by su, sudo or gdm.
 But I don't know if this could easily be done (?)

no it doesn't. it uses pam. i removed e's own password as it's not secure
(anyone can read your e config files and if they know how, snarf your lock
password out). entrance and e17 simply need to be extended to also use other
parts of pam that interact with things like fingerprint scanners.  feel free to
provide patches :)

 in my case the only file I had to edit is /etc/pam.d/common-auth, not a file
 per application like you seem to say and it just work in
 su/sudo/gdm/gksu...
 
 Thx, Mathieu.

  Hello all.
   
  Before the CVS update, my .desktop files were able to control 
  the icon for the application where ever it was shown (window 
  border, app list, ibar, etc) by defining a .desktop file as such:
   
   
  [Desktop Entry]
  Encoding=UTF-8
  X-Enlightenment-IconTheme=dlg-etiquette
  X-Enlightenment-WindowName=isengard
  X-Enlightenment-IconClass=isengard.png,isengard.edj,eterm
  Type=Application
  Exec=Eterm -t isengard -e ssh isengard
  StartupWMClass=ETerm
  GenericName=Terminal
  X-Enlightenment-IconPath=/users/ral/.e/e/icons/isengard.png
  Name=Isengard
  Comment=Run commands in a shell
  X-Enlightenment-WindowTitle=isengard
  Icon=isengard.png
  
   
  Now, all my .deskop files show the Eterm.desktop icon, except 
  for the iBar in the shelf.
   
  So where do I now place the .desktop files so that E17 uses 
  the icon I define?

Re: [e-users] Message on shutdown ?

2007-10-24 Thread The Rasterman
On Wed, 24 Oct 2007 22:29:19 +0200 giggz [EMAIL PROTECTED] babbled:

 Hi,
 
 My sysactions.conf is configured like this :
 action:   halt  sudo /sbin/shutdown -t1 -h now
 action:   rebootsudo /sbin/shutdown -t1 -r now
 
 When I type sudo /sbin/shutdown -t1 -r now in a virtual console, I see
 messages like these :
 stopping gdm...
 stopping alsa...
 stopping all the service...
 umount ...
 halt or reboot
 
 But when I stop or reboot my laptop through the menu with halt or
 reboot, I don't see anything. Why ? Is there a magic command to get
 these messages back ?

simple answer: no there isn't. e lets the system shut it down. x is still up
thus you see no console messages until x is killed or unless you flip TO a VC
(flip TO a VC just after you selected shutdown and you will see it). you could
make a script that chvt's to a console then  runs shutdown/reboot - but really
- i don't see the point.

 Guillaume

Re: [e-users] Integrating an OpenGL render Window within an Evas canevas.

this is going to suck for you... but... you can't do what you are trying to do 
:( sorry :(

 Dear all:
 
 My name's florent and although I'm rather new to the EFLs world, and  
 thanks to some great examples over the internet (from Gustavo Sverzut  
 Barbieri and Raoul Hecky), I already managed to achieved nice results  
 using Evas.
 
 However, after investigating evas's (endless) possibility as a GUI  
 I'm hitting a wall while trying to do the following:
 
 I want to integrate an OpenGL render window within my Evas UI, this  
 Evas UI handling every callbacks (mouse and keyboard events) whether  
 from the evas canevas or the openGL render window.
 
 The example I tried to achieved, but failed so far, would be to  
 integrate a glxgears render window (from the famous linux glxgears  
 OpenGL render app) in a simple Evas canevas contaning a button that  
 would launch the openGL render window.
 
 I would appreciate any idea/code/direction on how to achieve this as,  
 from my internet digging, I did not find any example.
 
 thanks for your help.
 
 florent.

 Hi, he mailed me and I asked him to mail this list... I proposed the
 following solutions, but I don't know if they will work:
 
  1 - create an opengl X11 window and make the parent be the evas
 window. Maybe using ARGB windows and composite manager to handle
 transparency.

that's work - but you won't be able to layer the window within the evas canvas
space - you have a whole lump of special case code just for that window. i was
trying to give a simple answer though :):)

  2 - create an offscreen opengl window, use it with
 evas_object_image_data_set().

possible - but u'd be reading back data and that'd just royally suck
performance-wise

 any of those help, raster?

 Thanks for the reply:
 I took a look at sysaction.conf and it looks pretty simple but it looks like
 it only controls shutdown, logout and some other high level fuctions. I
 would like to edit the main menu to only inlcude logout and restart.
 so the only fuctions and or apps would be firefox and logout/restart and
 thats it. I have already edited the shelf pretty well so it only has one
 thing, not I need to edit the main menu, so when users
 right click the only thing there is logout and restart. once I have all the
 settings I want the next trip would be to lock it all in place.  :)

aaah - that can't be done - unfortunately. the main menu is coded in. :) i
havent decided what to do here yet, so right now the menu is coded in to make
sure regardless of how broken a config you have - you always have a main menu
to rescue yourself. it requires source patches. e_int_menus.c. it hasn't been
modularised :/ the main menu should become more like the conifg panel - modular
with the ability to register elements - in fact modules should register most of
the functionality, so remove modules to remove menu contents. the big problem
here is the config ,menu - that contains the modules config dialog - removing
the module that brings that up can leave you with a wm that you can't use - as
you can no longer configure modules and load it back :( that is the real danger
here for NORMAL users of e.

 ps: I demo'd a E17 box to my boss (fedora 7 + E17) for our public Kiosk
 program (instead of windows) and he was impressed with the speed Firefox
 started and how good everything looked. now I just have
 to create a supportable device and proccess.  :)

 ok but.it would be like deleting all shelf and mouse bindings, wouldn't?

that is true. though you would also need to delete all keybindings as well.
very good point. maybe we should allow this, but we need a rescue mode. we
need some keybinding you can ALWAYS press to rescue yourself from doom. (i am
happy to make a cmd-line option to turn that off so you explicitly turn off
rescue on a kiosk or purpose-built device).

 I have to agree with this sentiment. Unless we can demonstrate a real
 benefit from the effort, this seems like another administrative
 distraction.
 
 I use git locally for doing branched development and push to CVS when
 at a stable point. It is sometimes a pain to sync things properly, but
 not that bad. For most people, there is not much benefit of using git
 as they develop in a single branch.

bingo. git just is shuffling papers differently. cvs is not perfect. i have
used cvs for a decade - and i have managed to write lots of code and
collaborate with others for 10 years.

git came about because the kernel never went into cvs - kernel devs just kept
mailing patches to eachother and each with their own tree. they worked entirely
differently. git works for their model. cvs has worked well for ours.

when i work on stuff i tend to work locally without revision control - i dont
see why i need it. i make a small change, i run and test - if it went bad, i
fix it. when working live on stuff i tend to commit small changes often. i get
an email on very commit that makes it sane to handle. what happens when we have
git and now people keep separate branches and develop separately - then merge
them - where does the oversight of such massive merges happen? how do we get
git-commit mails so we see who is doing what where and when? if commit patches
get massive we not longer can sanely review any of it and will just give up
into chaos, OR we end up with barriers being put up - code cant move form one
git tree to another until it has been reviewed and accepted (the kernel model).
if there is a recipe for us grinding to a halt development-wise - that is a
sure fire way of doing it.

i am wary of git. i just can't see how it can really help.

 the paragraph about e17 is not clear enough (there are 2 links without 
 explanation. Why doing a small page to say : go to other small pages)
 
 etc...

dj2 is simplifiying it. :)

  But the primary thing of importance is getting E17 out the door. It's
  actually looking petty good. Only 2 really big TODO items left. I'm doing a
  theme revamp. The Default theme has very much aged. The gold bling isn't
  incredibly popular. I'm working on something I think people will love - and
  it still shows off E. It will replace the current default - and will also
  knock off some of the comment the default theme so its better documented
  for people to build new themes from and learn Edje.
 
 I was just wondering if it was the right time to start a new theme, which 
 is a big big work.

it is a big work, but the old one just was annoying me too much. i was trying
to do graphics for the wizard and it just wasn't looking nice. everything i
tried looked like crap.

 Second, with the last few checkouts i made, i noticed, whenever i started
 Programs like OpenOffice, Firefox, Gaim for the first time, E segfaulted. Now
 this behavior is gone, but these Programs now suddenly stop working and
 return a strange errorcode (137 and 139 in the case of Firefox)
 
 Third thing is that whenever i close a Window and switch to another desktop
 and the back, the window is still there. It is also listet in the itask-ng

 the window suddenly gets closed by e and i have to switch to another desktop
 and back again to make it appear again.

[e-users] Trac? (milestone/todo list visibility)

2007-11-15 Thread The Rasterman
So I set up Trac:

http://trac.enlightenment.org/e

As per the news:

http://www.enlightenment.org/p.php?p=news/showl=ennews_id=6

it's intended for project tracking. tracking our TODO items, etc. etc. it seems
it's only me that likes TODO in CVS. no one else except a few core devs even
knows its there. so i am thinking that we use trac to put up the TODO items and
file tickets for them - then we can track what is to be done, even have
discussions on each item - draw up wiki-like documents on them, find out who is
doing them etc. etc.

it even provides a NICE wishlist system. it's friendlier than bugzilla, but not
as powerful.

i set up track for project timeline/status/completion tracking - ti deos things
bugzilla doesn't.

1. it doesn't piss me off so much that i might actually use it.
2. it is not meant to replace bugzilla
3. this is the age of the internet - put in links to buzilla items if they are
relevant on a TODO
4. it was intended for handling the TODO file in e. people still ask what is
there to do? how can i help? what's the status?. trac provides a roadmap with
a nice nice nice nice summary per project - items to do, items done. a
percentage bar. it's simple.
5. i don't intend to use trac for svn. it's just hanging about
6. the wiki is only there for documenting the todo items and providing some
central hook to get to them all - nothing else. trac's wiki is too limited for
much moe
7. did i mention - this is the a web page. we can use things like links back to
the real' wiki etc.?
8. bugzilla may be working for ewl - great! fantastic! keep using it. it isn't
working for me for e - and the TODO file has been in cvs and still is there and
is only being updated there. i waned to move it more into a public space. trac
seemed to fit the bill. i set it up.
9. bugzilla annoys me to hell - every time i do use it it encouages me to run
away and spend as long as possible away from it until i get back. just somehtng
simple like list all bugs open for E17 or just all bugs open i can't do. i
select open and 17 in bugs search but then i need to put in words - i dont
wan to search. i want a LIST. come on bugzilla. how hard is it to just list the
bugs! so instead i have to spend time int he advanced search fiddling with a
bunch of things to create a saved search simply to list the bugs... sure then i
can go create a bunch - go share them and people can track progress based
on how long the list of bugs are for some saved search they have to go find and
select. it just annoys me that the simpl things have to be so complex.
providing a simple public status and a simple like like:

top priority:
  * do a
  * create b
  * fix c

nice to have:
  * do x
  * delete y
  * re-color z

etc. doesn't exist with bugzilla.

bugzilla also looks ugly :( filing a bug (or for a simple task/todo item) is
quite an exercise in filling out forms. there is no ability to do any nice
formatting (text only - though i don't mind much, trac does handle this nicely)
etc. etc.

if you want to use bugzilla as a way of putting down a request or todo item
then using  bugzilla to also discuss and refine it - draw nice diagrams,
tables, etc. etc. it will get ugly. trac seems to lend itself to this much
better.

as i said - do NOT STOP USING BUGZILLA. i want to use trac for tracking TODO
items for E - they are NOT being tracked in bugzilla. i want to have the
TODO list for e much more visible. let people directly comment on it and maybe
provide ideas or shortcuts etc. some TODO items are very fuzzy and need more
solidification. trac seems to be a good tool for that.

  it's intended for project tracking. tracking our TODO items, etc. etc. it
  seems it's only me that likes TODO in CVS. no one else except a few core
  devs even knows its there. so i am thinking that we use trac to put up the
  TODO items and file tickets for them - then we can track what is to be
  done, even have discussions on each item - draw up wiki-like documents on
  them, find out who is doing them etc. etc.
 
  it even provides a NICE wishlist system. it's friendlier than bugzilla, but
  not as powerful.
 
 
 Ok, I really like trac, but keeping both doesn't solve the previous
 problem of people not using bugzilla, instead it create another point
 of replication.
 
 I also like bugzilla completeness, but unless we'll create
 hierarchical bug dependencies, it doesn't worth the pain.
 
 So, let's try to eliminate one?
 
 Pro-Trac: it's simpler and provides wiki and scm view (I know git and
 svn works, but does cvs?)
 Pro-Bugzilla: it's complete, you can have hierarchical bugs and with
 that have todo lists.
 
 I rather keep the bugzilla + mediawiki instead of going Trac. Maybe
 someone could customize bugzilla's UI?

don't follow the standard very well. i added code to guess if no %U/u/F/f

 I just updated efreet and it still doesn't work.

it should - if you double-click a file (for example jpeg) it will chose the
last used app for that mime type. if no app is known it will ask. it will
execute it with the command where %U or %F etc. is replaced with the file path.
if this isnt in the command spec for the .desktop it will fallbackand assume it
can just add the filename. thats exactly what the code does. check your stdout
from e17. efreet will be complaining if the .desktop cmd has no %U etc. spec.

 Hello,
 
 i was wondering if it is possible to scale the
 background images as an option of displaying? Or is it
 possible to display a background image non scaled
 (when smaller than the actual background screen).
 
 I mean each time i set up a background it stretches
 across the full screen deforming the original image
 ration. 

have you checked he options when importing an image? these are all there. and
more.

 thank you

 No one has this pb using i810 drivers on any intel devices ?

nup. don't see it - if X is eating 100% (and just strace e from your ssh in

hammering x to do something silly - then of course e is part of that problem
(though in general such a lockup is very unlikely due to e. extra cpu and work
by x is possible, but complete lockups - unlikely).

  Hi all,
  
  I have a problem sometime when I switch to an other desktop BUT It's not

  First, I was thinking it was an hardware pb on my laptop, but since I did
  an update it's worst, and I found the same pb on an other computer.
  
  I use CVS, for many month, when I was swithing it's like if the
  combination ctrl + alt + right/left was locked, and the pager popup is
  kind of freezed. For those month, after few seconds (avg 4sec) I was back
  in a desktop, able to work again, but since my two last CVS compil (near 2
  weeks), Xorg(keyboard but not mouse) freezes when the pb occures and if I
  connect with ssh I can see Xorg at 100% CPU... and nothing is responding
  with kbd even a ctrl alt f1 or ctrl alt backspace
  
  Moreover, I can reproduce the problem juste after starting E, doing a
  long ctrl + alt + right/left in order to change of virtual desktop.
  
  I have a small configuration (i915 with i810 driver) and the other
  computer has a other intel video chipset with i810 driver too.
  
  Do you have any idea where this problem come from ?
  
  thx
