I'am a total newbie for linux en tcl but i think it looks beatiful. Trying to learn how things work by playing around. Now I'am trying to configure w-bar. the problem I have is wicd. I've set wicd to run at boot (sudo wicd-start in onbootlocal) and it works fine. In the menu I can choose the networkmanager to set my wireless. I've made an icon for wbar but I need the comaand to start just like in the menu. Can anyone help me? ;D
-
if you are using gnome-desktop why not use network-manager-gnome :P ?
wicd depends on python 2.6 while gnome-desktop depends on python 2.7 so you need to be careful because you can mess up python packages
-
I'm not using gnome desktop because I'm unable to get it started. I would like to though. I've tried to install gnome desktop and followed the instructions, but it won' t start up ???.
Can't figure out what I do wrong. I've installed it, set passwords, ran gnome-desktop-installer and made the backup (filetool.sh backup). Then when I reboot I just get a shell and I' am lost ???
Do I need to do something else?
-
what do you mean X does not start and tiny core boots into a shell ?
-
Yes, that is what happens. I've tried it several times but X won't start. I disabled all extensions except gnome but it didn't help.
Thanks for you're answers. I 'am doing something wrong but I can't figure out what it is. :-[
-
looks like Xorg does not start in confless mode for you. So before gnome you need to setup Xorg-7.5 properly
maybe this helps:
exit to prompt
sudo Xorg -configure
sudo mv xorg.conf.new /etc/X11/xorg.conf
startx
if still can't start X, can you post /var/log/Xorg.0.log please

Arlan, thanks for you' re help!! Unfortunately it did not help.

can you try again after executing the command below please
tce-load -wi graphics-`uname -r`.tcz
also you might need Xorg-7.5-3d.tcz extension

Arslan, thanks for all you're help!
