Slacko 6.3.0 (32 bit)
I am sure it is like that for you, but I still can't reproduce it.mavrothal wrote:@zigbert
Regarding first boot: is reproducible. Fire 6.0.8.1, fix the symlinks, try to change the top tray and press apply at the end. Nothing.
Restart jwm see change in tray but no change in behaviour.
However, restart X and now tray management behaves.
Img shows tray management at first run of 6.0.8.1 including the jwm_config 'patch'.

That is how it is supposed to be. All themeing is pointed to pTheme (Wallpaper is different). Puppy is heavy themable, so looking at one theme module without getting the big picture is backwards (imho). gtk-themeing is just one of many modules, and one of the reason for making pTheme was to clean up... I suggest we also remove icon-switcher from desktop menu as for gtk-switcher in the ptheme pinstall script in woof.mavrothal wrote:Gtk theme switcher is only accessible through the pTheme applet. Should be accessible from the main puppy desktop applet.
The button tooltip says: Reinstates the stock standard icons. Jwm has a builtin set of button icons. Jwm has to restart to activate these.mavrothal wrote:It is unclear what what the "clear" button does in the window buttons theme applet and more important why it restarts jwm.
A single click on one of the theme-buttons switch theme. The cancel button has to switch back to the theme used before you ran the themeswitcher - therefor restarting jwm. If you click Ok, activated theme is what the user like, and there is no reason for restarting jwm.mavrothal wrote:Cancel in the jwm theme switcher applet restarts jwm. it should not.
OK BTW does nothing (as it should in this case).
This technique is to use an image in a gtk background. The question of stretching has been raised before, and I have not seen anyone solved it. It seems that gtk only supports tiles. This is an issue for small images like startdust blue/grey. These are meant to be replaced by svg images which hasn't the same prooblem.mavrothal wrote:The background icon in the icon switcher applet defaults to tilled and looks strange (check stardust blue or grey) if the wallpaper is set to (the default) "stretched". Should follow whatever is selected in the wallpaper setter or at least the default.(stretched)
attached pet contains all previous fixes and svg backgrounds for builtin global themes. This also fixes the background in the icon-switcher.
Everything is added to Woof.

ndiswrapper in slacko-6.0.8.1 worked initially followed by what seemed to be lack of persistency on reboots The last 3 reboots seem to be ok, so I'm watching.
Changed cursor OK, but there are issues with desktop manager as shown in accompanying screenshots.
Expected right-click at the desktop to launch Menu but it didn't..On first attempt to rectify that, I got an error, but it worked after exiting. Reverted to non-operational mode since then.
Tried to get the bright menu instead of zigbert's favourite 'stardust', but again an error about settings.
All for now.
[EDIT 10/29]
ndiswrapper continues to work Persistent between reboots.
The patch fixed the other problems. Surprised about the change to mouse middle button for Menu.

There is no 32bit zarfy available but this line saved as 2monitors.sh

From just 2 posts above yours, install patch_jwm_config-0.5.pet (or any of the previous 4 versions here)B.K.

BTW @zigbert, 0.5 has ironed out most bugs
The only thing I think it should be fixed for "production" is the disappearance of the try if a hide position other than appearing position is selected. Ideally only on/of should be offered. So the AUTOHIDE variable (on/off) should rather call a function that in case of "on" would evaluate /root/.jwm/tmp/tray_{VALIGN.HALIGN,DIRECTION_VER,DIRECTION_HOR} and set top/bottom/left/right properly in tray_AUTOHIDE.
@01micko (@zigbert), I thought I noticed a recent change in wallapaper pet version, in case this was before this built, the default tree widget when you open the app in NOT from /usr/share/backgrounds but from /root. Also (or because of that?) when you press clear the entire desktop is wiped out including background, icons, and drives! Installing one of the default themes reinstates everything.

Ok.. can do.zigbert wrote:The old png wallpapers in woof should be deleted:

However.. should "Stardust bright.svg" and "Stardust dark.svg" each have a space in the naming?

I made a trivial change to the wallpaper app (68c094b) that supports svg, only 1 line changed. The default should open at /usr/share/backgrounds. The package is wallpaper-0.6.5.pet.mavrothal wrote:@01micko (@zigbert), I thought I noticed a recent change in wallapaper pet version, in case this was before this built, the default tree widget when you open the app in NOT from /usr/share/backgrounds but from /root.

Globally it works well, users will appreciate.
Not user friendly: right/Middle click at the desktop to launch Menu = nothing is happening.

you may want to put zigbert's pet in the first post, before the download link, because this is not fun anymore...

Could/should the next Slacko version have a Menu item entry for the utility to exchange the kernel?

This is never going to have a menu entry. I don't want complete noobs poking around with it and then complaining.
