For anyone else who may find this useful, I made a few changes to cfg.cpp in the slim source: 57a58 > options.insert(option("default_session","")); 293c294,295 < --- > string strSessionDef = getOption("default_session"); > 296a299 > pair<string,string> first_session...

How did you solve this problem? I am having the same issue. I am trying to get the Thunar filesystem mounter to work. But the problem shows up when I run: matt % gnome-mount -vtd /dev/ntfs/Windows7_OS /media/disk gnome-mount 0.8 ** Message: Mount failed for...

Re: lagg0 and wlan0 - Link aggregation & network interface d I also just tried the lagg0 setup for wireless fallback and wired internet, but it didn't work right and I just realized why: my wired connection needs to have a different ip than the wireless connection, since they don't go to the...

Mine is really simple - just a popup toolbar on the lower left. It is a mix of openbox and xfce. I have a keyboard shortcut and OSD for time and date.

Hello, I am wondering if anyone has insights into a small issue I've been facing. I'm coding some mathematical procedures for work, primarily on a Fedora system, but also work on them on my laptop which is running freebsd FreeBSD. But I seem to be getting some strange behaviour from rand on...

I typically install the flash plugin not as the super user. #nspluginwrapper -l /home/matt/.mozilla/plugins/npwrapper.libflashplayer.so Original plugin: /usr/local/lib/npapi/linux-f10-flashplugin/libflashplayer.so Plugin viewer: /usr/local/lib/nspluginwrapper/i386/linux/npviewer...

Hello, I don't know if this is the place to ask, but I was wondering if you know what the benefits of KMS is with the intel drivers? If this is for an xfce distribution as you might mention here, it looks on the surface similar to my (single) xfce desktop.

ah, a question I might have helpful input for. I think the "right" guide for getting the kernel sources is in the handbook: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/cvsup.html. Even that I think is better not to treat as a how-to, but instead read it to try to understand how...

That was a quick reply :) Huh, my dependencies are different: #pkg_info -xr linux-f10-flashplugin-11.2r202.236 Information for linux-f10-flashplugin-11.2r202.236: Depends on: Dependency: linux_base-f10-10_4 Dependency: linux-f10-openldap-2.4.12_1 Dependency: linux-f10-cyrus-sasl2-2.1.22_1...

Hello, I've set up flash through the linuxulator many times before, but I still occasionally have this problem which I'd thought I'd ask about. nspluginwrapper can't install the libflashplayer.so because it can't find libssl3.so. #nspluginwrapper -v -i...

In my opinion: I think it is best to think of FreeBSD as a unix system. I use it on a netbook and it works _very_ well for me, but this is after I've learned to use it fairly well. You also kind of have to take a different mindset to it - for instance, I use XFCE, and in the latest version...

I don't think it likely is, actually. I get that message, but my opengl runs about as fast as I could expect on this machine.

My amd desktop works with bmps of the following sizes: 320x200 640x400 640x480 These are not scalled, but are centered, except for 640x480 which fills the screen. That is still pretty grainy for this lcd, but so far I havn't found a higher resolution that still works on this computer.

Okay, I have this working. My system does the splash nicely with a 800x600 bmp. I think the bmp still has to be of a certain type, but I am not sure about that. It also worked with 800x600 pcx. My screen is 1024x600, and the 800x600 is just stretched to fit. So I start with an image that...

It took me a while to get a splash working on my intel machine. If I remember right, most of my issues were with the type of bmp. Below is the splash that is now working. (Zipped for upload). I wouldn't mind a higher quality bitmap, so I will experiment with that a bit now...

The issue I get with shutting down xfce is the if I am using the slim display manager, sometimes it doesn't auto-login on the next boot properly. For now I just push my computers actual power button to initiate a shutdown, and as far as I can tell that causes me no problems.

I just tried moving my /usr/local/lib/npapi/linux-f10-flashplugin/libflashplayer.so, and as a result I got the same kind of error you described. So make sure that file is there.

There are two strategies I am trying for keeping my desktop system sane using packages: - one is only updating the ports tree to the date of the last package build. There can be a line in a supfile like this: *default date=2010.09.27.12.00.16 so I've made a simple script to check this page...

Hello, I am pretty ignorant about this area, and I was wondering is there a way to identify other freebsd computers on a LAN by hostname, when the network uses dhcp? (dhcp is served by a router connected to a modem). IP addresses are not static/consistent, so putting things in /etc/hosts...
