I don't know who did, but I think that's semi-foolish. Vertical sizing for text is a lot easier to fudge, though, esp given that no one expects a decent-length document to fit on one 'screen' vertically. > as an aside, i've been meaning to report on the problems i've been having with > xfce settings dialogs on my eeepc (which has a max res of 640x480).

We've talked about this a while ago... it might be possible to add scrolled windows to the dialogs so they can scroll, but dealing with screen heights less than 480 is a bit... retarded. > you aren't ahering to your own dogma there, why make a special case > about it here?

Sans 9? That's pretty small. And 'Sans' isn't useful -- that could be Arial, Helvetica, Bitstream Vera Sans, etc. They all have different metrics (in particular Vera is pretty wide on average compared to other sans-serif fonts). > > Psh, don't give me this dogma crap.

The code is only used in some places and XfceRc is much more powerful for reading data from .ini like files. It's also a bit confusing to provide 2 ways of reading desktop files in the same library. For the time we could deprecate it and replace the internal code with GKeyFile (or XfceRc if we add a function to create a new XfceRc from data).

There is a terminal entry in the default Xfce menu. 2 - What do you mean, there's no way to stop it? You mean other than log out/restart/shutdown? Why should there be? 3 - You can always do Ctrl-Alt-F2 to get to a console login prompt, isn't it? 4 - You can run anything you want by choosing 'Run program...' from the menu, or pressing Alt-F2. I'm sorry, but I don't see how this is a bug in Xfce. Feel free to reopen it if you don't agree (but please do explain why ;-). -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.xfce.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug, or are watching the assignee.

I'm assuming that the Xfce project is the one that architects the apt repository. If that is incorrect then I will file this as a bug with the apt team. 2) You can log out, restart, and shutdown and when you do you will get back to the same situation as gdm will start xfce as soon as the machine is ready. 3) Is a valid solution for people who know something about Linux and don't rely on the desktop as most users do. 4) Again, if the functionality is there to actually open a terminal in the downloaded Xfce, how would a person know this when the install the core application from apt? When you right click on the desktop you will get {Settings, Accessories, Network, Help, About, Quit}. Nothing in settings addresses it, nothing in accessories talks about the terminal/xterm etc (so to the user - does it exist?), Network speaks to Lynx which is an application that is called out - so why wouldn't terminal be called out - lynx is of far less importance than being able to get to the command line, etc. So that's why I don't agree. Functionality for the terminal should be obvious and accessible. The only way to get terminal to show up is to download another apt package and if you don't grab that one by default you are left with a situation that a novice/normal user will be lost in because they won't see a clear way to get back to a terminal to remedy the problem. I can certainly understand that you may disagree, but this is low-hanging fruit that would make life MUCH easier for people who are unfamiliar with Xfce or Linux in general. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.xfce.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug, or are watching the assignee.

The Xfce project only provides tarballs containing the sources file (sometimes some rpm packages too). If you're not happy about what your distribution installs when you apt-get install Xfce see with them. There is nothing the Xfce Team can do for you except presenting some ways to reach a terminal like Jasper did. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.xfce.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug, or are watching the assignee.
