XFCE 4.12 on EPEL7
by Martin Sourada
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

All,
I am a mere beneficiary of all of your work, not a contributor.
That said, it would be great if someone could devote some attention to
the Fedup wiki (https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/FedUp), which seems a bit
outdated.
Thank you all very much for all you do.

autologin
by ToddAndMargo
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.

Any way around the 3GB limit on the Fedora Live USB?
by ToddAndMargo
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...
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

PDF Viewer [was: muPDF (was: Atril instead of Evince)]
by Raphael Groner
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.

Another alternative might be muPDF:

On screen keyboard on Xfce
by Miro Hrončok
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?
