| ethana2 | I'm trying to use maximus from Jaunty repos | 01:34 |
|---|---|---|
| ethana2 | It's not removing window title bars when they're maximized | 01:34 |
| ethana2 | I avoided it before for this same reason, but I've changed the way I think about the 2d ui since that time | 01:34 |
| ethana2 | How do I remove windows' titlebars? | 01:34 |
| ethana2 | when maximized only I guess | 01:34 |
| ethana2 | many people have entered the room since I asked my question a couple hours ago, so I restate: | 03:22 |
| ethana2 | how do I get maximus to do away with windows' title bars when they are maximized? | 03:23 |
| ethana2 | (or all the time would be fine too) | 03:23 |
| untoldone | hi -- i was wondering if anyone had gotten the egalax driver from eeti working on 8.10 mid | 03:31 |
| untoldone | the TouchKit app/Draw test works fine -- but it doesnt seem to work on the desktop | 03:32 |
| untoldone | ive noticed that both the evtouch and egalax drivers are loaded in the xorg.0.log but i don't any config related to evtouch in xorg.conf | 03:32 |
| untoldone | sometimes the pointer jumps rapidly between the correct location and an incorrect location (both locations move as i move my finger across the screen) | 03:35 |
| untoldone | i also tried to remove xserver-xorg-input-evtouch from startup -- and xorg still loads the evtouch drivers | 03:47 |
| untoldone | can't uninstall xserver-xorg-input-evtouch because ubuntu-mid depends on it | 03:49 |
| untoldone | on inspecting with xinput -- both devices exist -- "egalax" has values that seem correct while "EVTouch TouchScreen" seems to not ... | 04:04 |
| untoldone | i guess the question here is -- what is causing evtouch to load? There is nothing in xorg.config that does it. | 04:05 |
| ethana2 | looks like maximus now takes no command line arguments | 04:57 |
| ethana2 | blast | 04:57 |
| ethana2 | an argument to determine whether maximized apps got to keep their title bars would be good. | 04:58 |
| ethana2 | 'cause I've been frustrated by it both ways now | 04:58 |
| untoldone | fixed my problem for those who were wondering -- i had assumed fdi files in /usr/share/hal/fdi were files that were not loaded by hal and had to be copied to /etc/hal/fdi in order to work ... turns out files from /usr/share/hal/fdi are loaded -- the pacakge xserver-xorg-input-evtouch placed a hal config file there for egalax touch screens | 05:26 |
| untoldone | removing that file solved my problem | 05:26 |
| ethana2 | I wonder if I could find an old version of maximus | 05:37 |
| ethana2 | I should try the Intrepid version | 05:37 |
| ethana2 | I have found that it behaves like what I want if the session is started after the daemon is launched | 06:44 |
| ethana2 | ..unfortunately, even with windows' menu bars flush against the top edge of the screen | 06:45 |
| ethana2 | they don't work with Fitt's law | 06:45 |
| ethana2 | for some reason windows apps do though, in wine | 06:45 |
| ethana2 | notably google earth 5 compiled with winelibs | 06:45 |
| ethana2 | that top pixel row is very important | 06:45 |
| ethana2 | must be clickable | 06:45 |

| atari | hi | 13:06 |
| atari | does UMPC use the normal i386 packages of ubuntu? | 13:10 |
| NCommander | atari, yes, but UMPC is only available in Intrepid (its gone in Jaunty) | 13:13 |
| atari | ahok | 13:13 |
| atari | so i have to use UNR? | 13:13 |
| NCommander | atari, are you currently using Intrepid or Jaunty? | 13:13 |
| atari | currently i have intrepid (UNR apps installed). but i want to update to jaunty | 13:14 |
| atari | i'll do a complete reinstall | 13:14 |
| * NCommander is told Jaunty UNR is quite nice | 13:15 | |
| atari | yeah ;) | 13:16 |
| atari | but is it using normal i386 packages? | 13:16 |
| atari | i had problems with flashplayer etc... that's why i took a normal ubuntu | 13:17 |
| NCommander | Both UMPC and UNR use normal i386 packages | 13:17 |
| NCommander | MID uses lpia, but it is possible (with some pain) to get a MID that uses i386 | 13:17 |
| atari | ah | 13:18 |
| atari | i had exactly that lpia problem... | 13:18 |
| NCommander | (I fixed ubuntu-mid early in the cycle to work on i386, but the main issue is that our CD build system doesn't generate a ubuntu-mid-i386 image) | 13:18 |
| NCommander | hrm | 13:18 |
| NCommander | I thought the flashplugin on LPIA issue was resolved | 13:19 |
| * NCommander pops open the partner repo | 13:19 | |
| NCommander | atari, its available for lpia | 13:21 |
| NCommander | https://edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/intrepid/+source/adobe-flashplugin | 13:21 |
| NCommander | Its in the partner repo thouh | 13:21 |
| atari | i dont want lpia ;) | 13:21 |
| NCommander | *though | 13:21 |
| NCommander | Ah, thats a completely seperate and valid issue ;-) | 13:21 |
| NCommander | atari, so what do you specifically what? | 13:23 |
| atari | NCommander: i want a normal ubuntu with the UNR options/look with a i386 base | 13:26 |
| NCommander | Then just install the current UNR packages, they are i386 based | 13:26 |
| atari | cool :) | 13:27 |
| atari | i'll try it this evening ;) | 13:27 |
| atari | what should i use as root? 4GB, 8GB or 16GB? | 13:51 |
