MX-23 beta 1 feedback thread

@siamhie probably is almost certainly the missing dbus-user-session.

Installing dbus-user-session solves the issue MXFluxbox in systemd. Now volumeicon is showing up in systemtray and sound is back.
No need to autostart wireplumber in ~/.fluxbox/startup

Thanks. I suspect we're looking at a downside of the new idesk in how it (mis-)handles the slit.

Is that something you take care of or should I inform @m_pav about that?

I'll take care of it

idesk doesn't handle the slit, but it might be covering it. you could try putting idesk on a lower layer maybe.

[Jerry3904]

I tried all the layers for the slit, with no change. Will look at the layer for idesk, thanks, though the fact that some locations are OK and others not makes me not optimistic.

Libre office calc latest this great I like it

Still having issues with the updated mx-dockmaker.

When selecting a file, then mx-dockmaker will create a correct wmalauncher command line in the target *.mxdk script :

Code: Select all

wmalauncher --desktop-file thunar.desktop --background-color "#ff4a4a" --hover-background-color "#ff0000" --border-color "#2a2a2a" --hover-border-color "#8a8a8a" --window-size 48& sleep 0.1 

But when instead setting a command and selecting an appropriate icon (as shown in below screenshot), then that custom command is written as icon name to the *.mxdk file :

Code: Select all

wmalauncher --command pkexec Thunar --icon pkexec Thunar --background-color "#ff4a4a" --hover-background-color "#ff0000" --border-color "#2a2a2a" --hover-border-color "#8a8a8a" --window-size 48& sleep 0.1

... and subsequently, that entry will not appear in the dock.

Hope this can be resolved by @Adrian ?

Thanks for the price bug report, it should be fixed with the upcoming package upgrade.

I killed idesk. I think the problem is the slit autohide function in broke.

FYI slit autohide is fine under fluxbox 1.3.5.

[Jerry3904]

I looked through the man file for wmalauncher that is handling this and actually tried inserting a couple of options but no luck yet

@siamhie is dbus-user-session installed on the fluxbox iso?

@dolphin_oracle How would I check that? I did flash the ISO with MX Live USB Maker.

Code: Select all

apt-policy dbus-user-session

@dolphin_oracle I booted the live ISO and get this message. (same thing from my desktop afterwards)

Code: Select all

demo@mx1:~
$ apt-policy dbus-user-session 
bash: apt-policy: command not found
demo@mx1:~
$ sudo apt-policy dbus-user-session 
[sudo] password for demo:
