:) Because of Gentoo? It's really an awesome distro...

Anyways nice desks everyone. I really like fluxbox because it's nice and simple, minimalistic, loads quickly, you create your own menu's (so they don't get cluttered), etc.

It should work on yours, too. I googled a bit, you don't need any patches or similiar.

Do you have files inside /proc/acpi/battery ?

BTW, I have a BenQ Joybook 5000, if you want to know :rolleyes:

what setup is that? is that simple gnome + gdesklets or gnome + e17?

my E17 setup just doesnt upgrade now.

585829181[/snapback]

It's Gnome with the Milk 2.1g theme and the icons are Chanindjoole (Chaninja port). The launcher at the bottom is engage from e17 (soulmachine repository) and the pager in the lower right corner is called netwmpager. It supports transparency with xcompmgr, and you can set the value in the config.

I don't use engage as a dock, so I might as well use starterbar, just that I think engage generally looks better and it's just so very smooth. It's a little tricky to configure, but not that bad. That will hopefully improve, allthough the author seems to be focusing on the e17 module part, which doesn't have much to do with the standalone version unfortunately.

    • Apple's AI smart glasses and Vision headset plans reportedly delayed, again

      By AnalystDan · Posted

      Apple are scared of their customers! They have built a brand over the years of "it just works out of the box", but that slows innovation. Samsung's master stroke was the Galaxy Ultra: "Let's cram everything into one handset, make it so stupid only real nerds will love it, some of the features will work, some won't, but the audience will have such a high tolerance they won't care". Apple has no such device and so they are constantly worrying these days about the fallout of creating a new experience that customers might not like. I know it is often cited the reason they don't build a touchscreen Mac Book is they don't want to cannibalise the the iPad market, but I think it's equally cold feet after the criticism Microsoft receive trying to make a touch compatible desktop OS

    • Dell, HP PCs ran into endless reboot, BitLocker recovery loops but Windows 11 isn't to blame

      By grunger106 · Posted

      So, an article that has nothing to do with Windows 11, still gets Windows 11 in the title and a build number as the picture? Dell have a buggy build of Support Assist HP have UEFI settings that need unlocking for the secureboot cert upgrade to take place.
    • I Can't Wrap My Head Around This Number - Google to buy computing from SpaceX at $920 million per month

      By Nick H. · Posted

      What I can't seem to understand is that Google are paying SpaceX? Surely it would be the other way round, with SpaceX needing Google's datacenters etc.? Oh well, this level of money and power is way outside of my comprehension at the best of times.
