XFCE 4.12 on EPEL7
by Martin Sourada 28 Feb '16

28 Feb '16

Hi all, are there any plans on getting Xfce 4.12 on epel7 (e.g. copr repo)? I've been able to mockchain build pretty much everything sans: pragha-1.2.2-5.fc20.src.rpm (missing deps, more than one, haven't tried yet rebuilding them all) ristretto-0.8.0-1.fc23.src.rpm (missing deps for libappstream-glib which is unbuildable on epel7: too old glib, but fails late in build process) libxfcegui4-4.10.0-7.el7.src.rpm xfce4-timer-plugin-0.6.1-17.el7.centos.src.rpm xfce4-radio-plugin-0.5.1-10.el7.centos.src.rpm xfce4-quicklauncher-plugin-1.9.4-19.el7.centos.src.rpm xfce4-cpufreq-plugin-1.0.0-11.el7.centos.src.rpm Haven't tried the functionality though yet. Regards, Martin

xfce4-pulseaudio-plugin on F21
by Suvayu Ali 17 May '15

17 May '15

Hi, I was looking to use this plugin, but I do not see any F21 builds here: http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/packageinfo?packageID=20065. Is it because of the required minimum version of libxfce4ui? Thanks for any response. Cheers, -- Suvayu Open source is the future. It sets us free.

autologin
by ToddAndMargo 16 May '15

16 May '15

Hi All, With some help from others and piecing together a lot of incomplete documentation, I finally figured out how to get autologin to work with Xfce Fedora Core 21. /etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf [SeatDefaults] pam-autologin-service=lightdm-autologin session-wrapper=/etc/lightdm/Xsession autologin-user=username autologin-user-timeout=0 autologin-session=true Then as root (#): # groupadd autologin # gpasswd --add username autologin reboot Hope this helps someone else. -T -- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Computers are like air conditioners.

Any way around the 3GB limit on the Fedora Live USB?
by ToddAndMargo 10 May '15

10 May '15

Hi All, Fedora-Live-Xfce-x86_64-21-5.iso Do any of you guys know of a work around to to this bug I filed with EPEL? https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1220015 Reproduced here: Dear Red Hat, I am coming from the community: Scientific Linux 6.6 x64. I am trying to create a Live USB with persistence. Would one of our intrepid heroes please fix this for me? The Stick is 16 GB. It is formatted as ext3. # rpm -qa livecd-tools livecd-tools-13.4.5-1.el6.x86_64 According to this: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/Fedora/10/html/Release_Notes/sn-Live_U… livecd-iso-to-disk --overlay-size-mb 512 /path/to/live.iso /dev/sdb1 "Replace /dev/sdb1 with the partition where you want to put the image. Replace 512 with the desired size in megabytes of the persistent data, or overlay. The livecd-iso-to-disk shell script is stored in the LiveOS directory at the top level of the CD image. The USB media must have sufficient free space for the Fedora Live image, plus the overlay, plus any other data to be stored on the media." This is my command line: livecd-iso-to-disk --overlay-size-mb 13287 Fedora-Live-Xfce-x86_64-21-5.iso /dev/sdc1 After booting off the Live USB, I get the following: df -kPT / Filesystem Type 1024-blocks Used Available Capacity Mounted on /dev/mapper/live-rw ext4 3030800 2431496 551468 82% / Means the persistence is set at the default of 3GB. Many thanks, -T -- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Computers are like air conditioners. They malfunction when you open windows ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

PDF Viewer [was: muPDF (was: Atril instead of Evince)]
by Raphael Groner 08 May '15

08 May '15

To step into this flamewar, I would like to suggest Zathura. It has a plugins interface and therefore is able to handle various book formats, like currently PDF (by poppler), PS, DjVu, Comic. The best thing about that all is it's already packaged.

On screen keyboard on Xfce
by Miro Hrončok 05 May '15

05 May '15

Hi, I've recently installed Fedora 22 Xfce on X200 tablet and I would like to know what on screen keyboards are there available to use. So far, I've tried eekboard, but it: 1) doesn't support Czech keyboard layout 2) keeps pressed letters poped up so the keyboard is entirely covered [1] Is there any better tool?
