wbar bugs... make work around... and wbar patch offset..

getenv does not seem to work correct on my system. work around... #line 20 of IconLoder.cc # i changed to. homeDir = "/home/myname"; # and #on line 22 of SuperBar.cc # i changed to ADD_FONT_PATH("home/myname/"); getenv wasn't workig for me. ============================= i all so tried a short cut "~/" instead of homeDir = "/home/myname"; and ("home/myname/") .... but that shortcut did not work out for me as good as using a full path. it looks like i can get wbar working now. btw, i'm using debian lenny-testing 2008-2009.

xmms still lives... audacious loads slow...

http://xmms.sourceforge.net/ ==========================, http://www.xmms.org/ ===========================, http://www.pvv.ntnu.no/~knuta/xmms/ ------------------//////////////////////------------------- xmms can be found at those places. Known issues If XMMS crashes with the error message Gdk-ERROR **: BadMatch (invalid parameter attributes), try running it with the command XLIB_SKIP_ARGB_VISUALS=1 xmms see --> http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=318093#10 =======================================, ( $ XLIB_SKIP_ARGB_VISUALS=1 xmms ) " Ok that worked for me. " ------------------------------------------------------------------------ There is a work-around, however: 'export XLIB_SKIP_ARGB_VISUALS=1 && xmms' Furthermore, since this doesn't affect all users (Composite is disabled by default, and obviously for good reason), I'm lowering this bug's severity to important. -----------////////////////////////////////////////////------------ -----------//////////// icewm menu. I CAN USE " ICEWM" MENU TO LAUNCH A SHELL SCRIPT LIKE SO, #FOR ICEWM/MENU. prog "xmms" - /home/anthony/./xmms.sh --------///////////////////////////////////////////--------------- --------///////////////// SHEL SCRIPT LAUNCHER FOR XMMS. #!/bin/bash export XLIB_SKIP_ARGB_VISUALS=1 && xmms ----------/////////////////////////////////////------------- ---------///////// I'M DONE. xmms loads faster than audacious. audacious is a OK player but it loads slower than XMMS. btw, i'm using Debian lenny testing2009.
