How do you (or dtlogin) start fvwm?
What command do you use for Restart?

You should see an error message in the place where you have all X output.

There is almost no chances that Restart without parameters would fail.
Only if you removed or incorrectly replaced your currently running fvwm
executable (I don't know for sure about solaris8, but linux allows this).

Or maybe it always exits with your fvwm2rc (for example you have Quit
command in it), not just on Restart? If you can't find the problem
yourself, send your fvwm2rc. But first find the error message.

Mikhael.

Yes, it is possible. Try something like this:

  ImagePath /dir/with/your/icons:+
  Style XTerm MiniIcon mini/terminal.xpm
  Style XCalc MiniIcon mini/calculator.xpm

FVWM: fvwm2 restart function on solaris8 w/dtlogin

2002-11-22 Thread T.L.Bowers


Anyone know why the xsession is killed
when trying to use the restart fuction.

This is very annoying esp. becuase I'm
trying to fix up my fvwm2rc.

I'm running 2.4.13 and dtlogin is running.

Its failing on 
bin/fvwm_make_browse_menu.sh (no rule).

Since that file was moved to a different directory on 11/09,
I guess the 11/08 snapshot had a problem.

You have 2 choices,

run with make -k (keep going after errors)

since you probably don't need that shell,

or download a more recent snapshot.

That is exactly what I meant.  Anyone with a reasonably steady hand (or
possibly a higher quality mouse) would not need that help.

And anyone with a decent memory would remember a few 
bindings and not need "stroke".
 
For users with steadier hands and better memories, it would open up other
combinations e.g. "157", "158","14563" and "14569".  The list grows.

As stated in the subject. I'm using the 20021121 version. For as far as I
can recall, it occurs since I'm using >2.5.4

Re: FVWM: Switching on page/desk with keyboard and focussing window

The great oracle Peter McAlpine <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> told me:

Thanks Peter, just a few minutes before i read your mail, i found an
entry in the mailing list archive (i think it was from you) just about
this problem and the solving script. :)

The problem for me is that i dont use the "unstable version". Is it
stable enough for the daily work? Easy to compile or any problems?

For 2.4.x i solved the problem by configuring Fvwm like this:

Key 1 AMGoToPage1

AddToFunc   flipfocus-and-raise
+ "I" FlipFocus
+ "I" Raise

AddToFunc GoToDesk1
+ "I" GoToPage 0 0
+ "I" Next [CurrentPage] flipfocus-and-raise
+ "I" Prev [CurrentPage] flipfocus-and-raise

It works for a ClickToFocus-Environment but i will try the 2.5.x version
on the weekend and your script. 

Thanks a lot. 

-Jason
