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.

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.

Should I install, or fix something?

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"

    • Let's see how long this lasts. In the end, it comes down to productivity lost because of workflow disruptions. It's not even a question of "which is better", rather how painful will it be to switch and it's hard enough for a single person to switch - imagine an entire city's bureaucracy. Remember, there are governmental system in the US that are still using 5.25" floppy disks... Having been involved in these kinds of swaps, I can tell you - it's never as easy as the fanbase thinks it is.
    • Right, saw it in the microsoft blog, wasn't mentioned in the article, thanks.

    • It's all 1Password's fault for using it before anyone else. 🙃
    • Of course you would say that James. Mr everything Microsoft does is perfect. Mr who posts " I love it " on most articles regarding Microsoft. At least Firefox isn't a bloated pig that has an embarrassingly low market share given it's the default. Mr Microsoft evangelical James needs to learn some self awareness. It's embarrassing for you to criticize any browser give your worship of Edge.
