Sawfish and Gnome 2.2: msg#00148window-managers.sawfish
Hi. I'm having major difficulties getting Sawfish (1.2, and 1.3) running with Gnome 2.2. I'm running gentoo linux, and here's how I'm compiling it via emerge (here's the args it uses: ./configure --host=i686-pc-linux-gnu \ --prefix=/usr \ --infodir=/usr/share/info \ --libexecdir=/usr/lib \ --with-gnome-prefix=/usr \ --enable-gnome-widgets \ --enable-capplet \ --disable-themer \ --with-gdk-pixbuf \ --with-audiofile \ --without-esd \ --with-readline \ --disable-linguas ) It compiles fine, it installs fine... At this point, I uninstall Metacity (gawd do I hate it), and export WINDOW_MANAGER=/usr/bin/sawfish I then log out of X, and when I log back in, my gnome panel shows up, my desktop icons show up, and then my panel dissapears. Also, none of my applications have the window manager decorations around them (no border, no close/minimize buttons, etc)... As soon as sawfish is killed, my panel's back on my screen... If I start Gnome with metacity first, and then kill it, starting Sawfish after that, my panel stays, but all windows still have no borders around them. I can minimize windows by clicking on their window list entry in my panel, but that's about it... I'm still missing all my window decorations... I've managed to replicate this problem on every workstation I have (some 20 of them) between my home and my office (All running gentoo, so this may be a gentoo issue but I don't see how)... Also, please note I've tried using --enable-themer as well, to no avail... I've seen several of you mention that you use sawfish with gnome 2.2, so I'm wondering if anybody can help me trace down what may be a bug, or just my stupidity... Either way, thanks in advance... -David "PhaseBurn" Bauman |
