From make World:

bison -y -d pswparser.y

/bin/sh: line 1: bison: command not found

I guess I have to install bison as well. Put it on the list with autoconf, cvs, gcc...

I have a question... Why is it that I want to install something, if that something is lets say at CD1, it asks CD2, then CD4, then CD3 and then CD1? It doesn't read anything from the other 3 cds, stupid Mandrake 10...

And flex :crazy: Put that on the list too.

EDIT:

/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lncurses

collect2: ld returned 1 exit status

make[4]: *** [resize] Error 1

What the hell is that now? What do I need to do?

hey guys, I finally plucked up the courage to install it. And it's GREAT! These shadows are NICE and transparency.

The only thing I haven't figured out yet is how to get windows to automatically go transparent when I drag them (in gnome 2.6.3) and how to get xcompmgr to run at startup?

And has anyone noticed during window minimzation small black lines left on the desktop? I'm using the .905 release...They go away when you drag a window over it.

Has anyone been able to build this on Fedora Core 2? I just tried this morning and 'make World' bombed out:

making all in lib/fontconfig...

Hail!

I have installed the 6.7.99.904 release of X.org and I got translucency and shadows working, however it is really bad performance, when moving the windows they lag like hell aswell as switching between them.

My computer:

700++ mb ram

1,4 ghz amd athlon

ati radeon 7200

It doesn't seem like you have this problem but does anyone know anything?

to have xcompmgr to go on startup add it to your .xinitrc file for example mine says

exec fluxbox & xcompmgr -c

Alright I have it all installed and it all works fine... until I enable the composite manager in xorg.conf. When I have the composite manager enabled, in flux I seemingly don't have "layers." So basically, I can't bring a window into focus, they stay in order on the desktop from the time the window was opened, and I can't bring any to the front. Also, when I start up xcompmgr, windows "stick." I don't know any better way to put this. When I move a window, the window moves, but it leaves it's print where it was previously. I hope you can understand that in those terms.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I'll take a stab in the dark and say you need the pam development files. Didn't say which distro but for ubuntu/debian thats package "libpam0g-dev" and for redhat/fedora thats "pam-devel"

    • I have two Tab S9 FEs and two Tab A9+ tablets. While the Tab A9+ is not as powerful as the Tab S9 FE, I like the much cheaper Tab A9+ better. It has a slightly more Landscapish display for those who use the Landscape mode. I haven't noticed much difference in the speakers. The S9 FE does better on battery drainage at around 7% an hour vs 9% an hour for the Tab A9+. I don't use Fast Charging because it is not good for the battery and I haven't really compared the charge time between the two. One thing for sure is the Tab A9+ does a lot better at handling memory under Android 15 UI 7 than it did under Android 14, UI 6.1. The Tab A10+ has yet to be released and as I understand it, it has major chipset and charging upgrades. It is expected to be released late this summer or early fall, but with all Samsung hardware releases, I imagine this one will be same where the U.S. is not among the early markets to see a new device.
