XFCE 4.12 on EPEL7
by Martin Sourada 28 Feb '16

28 Feb '16

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

HP stream 11; Broadcom BCM 43142; install to USB
by Ron Leach 29 Sep '15

29 Sep '15

List, good afternoon, How might I manage to install XFCE onto a laptop equipped only with WiFi, but unable to establish a connection because the wireless card requires a recent non-free firmware component for the Broadcom BCM 43142? I'd like to try, and then probably install, the current XFCE release onto an HP Stream 11 Notebook PC. This machine has a potentially useful spec but is limited to: 32GB MMC SDD HD, 2 x USB, WiFi BCM 43142 http://h20195.www2.hp.com/v2/default.aspx?cc=ie&lc=en&oid=8245635 There is no wired Ethernet LAN connector. I'd like to run XFCE live on this, first, and then would prefer to install XFCE onto a USB stick, so that I can leave the (rather small) MMC SDD HD running Windows - I need to drop back to Windows for Excel (and Word), sometimes (mainly in instances where Libre Office isn't sufficiently compatible). I am not sure how or where I should both: (a) obtain the required driver, and (b) once obtained, how to persuade either (i) the Live XFCE spin to install the driver (if available), or (ii) Ensure that any subsequent install onto USB is able to install the Broadcom driver I could download the driver using another machine which does have connectivity, and copy the driver onto an SD card which could be read by XFCE on the HP Stream notebook. But I do not know how to install the driver into Fedora, either when running live, nor when fully installed. I'd be grateful for any ideas, regards, Ron

Xfce PolicyKit
by Raphael Groner 26 Sep '15

26 Sep '15

Hi there, I maintain xfce-polkit¹ and it's now pushed to stable, except for F23 cause of the Beta Freeze. Is there a chance to replace polkit-gnome with it in the Xfce Live spin? To ease autostart, I would like to provide a desktop file for it in the package itself. But xfce4-session prevents this desktop file currently with its own conflicting configuration for polkit-gnome, this seems somehow like a hack or at least a work-around only, a desktop file from dedicated polkit package (respectively xfce-polkit then) is IMHO the better solution. Any thoughts? ¹ https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1247251 R.

Right mouse button behaviour in desktop menus
by Tomáš Smetana 08 Sep '15

08 Sep '15

Hello. I have no idea where to ask this question... The desktop menu behaviour has changed recently (by my measures, not sure when exactly) and it drives me crazy. I'm used to launch an application by pressing the right mouse button on the desktop then navigating to the desired launcher and releasing the button, no left mouse click. This used to start the application, but now it brings me the launcher editor. Is there some configuration option that would bring the old behaviour back? It's even inconsistent with the rest of the applications where the "right mouse drag" in context menu produces equivalent of "right click, move, left click". I'd appreciate any help. Thanks and regards, -- Tomáš Smetana
