Re: In woody wdm garbles list of window managers, shows only a few
TR wrote: I am using wdm to login to X, but it shows only a few of the possible window managers. However, all of them are there: Line from /etc/X11/wdm/wdm-config: DisplayManager*wdmWm: afterstep:amiwm:asclassic:blackbox:default:enlightenment:fluxbox:flwm:fvwm2:fvwm95:gnome-session:gwm:icewm:icewm-lite:ion:kde2:larswm:lwm:metacity:olvwm-x-window-manager:olwm-x-window-manager:pwm:qvwm:ratpoison:sapphire:sawfish:twm:uwm:wm2:wm2:wmaker:xfwm When the dropdown menu slides, it makes a mess at the line corresponding to `icewm`. I suppose that in the configuration somewhat there is a limit to the number of window managers that can be displayed. I have no idea about how to fix it. Anyone knows how? So far, kdm seems to be the best in terms of options to login (window managers). The problem I had with it was that it consistently failed to present a few of the window managers. This question is anotherone I would like to know how to fix. Thanks. This may help Go into KDE, control center Add a session type "eg fluxbox" vi /etc/kde2/kdm/kdm.options delete generate-sessiontypes I had window managers disppearing because KDM tries to work out what window managers you have and gets it wrong. Doing the above lets you specify manualy. Good Luck Dave

Re: Non-KDE apps can't play sounds
It didn't used to be this way and it doesn't work that way on my other machines which are running 3.1.2 as well as CVS. It's quite a hassle to go through and edit the .desktop files for every non-KDE app. --- Frank Mehnert <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > On Tuesday 17 June 2003 21:46, Antiphon wrote: > > When I last installed the most recent arts > packages, I > > was in a bit of a rush and didn't pay attention to > > dpkg.

Re: Non-KDE apps can't play sounds
Could it be that arts can share the sound card on your other system because your sound card driver supports multi-open, but the one on this system doesn't? I don't think that explains why it DID work but doesn't now though. Also, you could set arts to suspend after a set period of inactivity so that other apps can get a chance to play their sounds (just not at once..) - I think that suspend means close /dev/dsp You can configure this from Control Center -> Multimedia&Sound -> Sound server.

Re: Has anyone figured out why fonts are broken...
afaict (or know)... xserver-svga is a v3.3.6 server, so I need a tt font server. I don't think anti-aliasing works with v3 servers. I don't recall looking at /etc/fonts/... though.

Re: Has anyone figured out why fonts are broken...
iirc, once or twice, but not recently (it is running now but will take awhile on this old box). When doing the font cache update command (don't remember what it is atm, currently being run by the dpkg-reconfigure, ya) messages indicated that lots of fonts were found and registered, but it didn't make any difference to KDE.
