I had this problem as well, you need to install the rep packages from helixcode manually for some reason they don't install with task-helix-gnome. Jamil > For some reason, the gnome control center doesn't want me to configure any > sawfish aspects. When I click on an

For some reason, the gnome control center doesn't want me to configure any sawfish aspects. When I click on any of the sawfish configuration options, the left pane displays nothing, and eventually, the entire app freezes and has to be killed. Another thing I noticed is that the control center oft

2000-12-08 Thread debuser
About a month ago when installing a new system, I tried installing the Gnome that comes with Woody (I've been using Helix Gnome on other systems). I saw some strange behavior, but perhaps it was because I didn't have a lot of suggested packages installed at the time. And, although a tri

This doesn't work because helix is in the version number, not the package name (except for about 3 packages). The matching seems only to match the package name. On Thu, 7 Dec 2000, Juergen Fiedler wrote: > apt-get takes regular expressions, so a 'apt-get --purge remove "helix

Re: How do you remove Helix GNOME

2000-12-07 Thread Juergen Fiedler
apt-get takes regular expressions, so a 'apt-get --purge remove "helix*"' should nuke everything that has the string 'helix' in its name. Note that apt-get does a substring match with the package name, so 'helix*' will be matched no matter where in the n

How do you remove Helix GNOME

2000-12-07 Thread Scott Patterson
I'm interested in following the Woody releases of GNOME instead of Helix Code's. Problem is, how do I remove ALL the Helix Code packages. Seeing they all have "helix" in their package name, a simple script should easily do this. Too bad I'm not that familiar with dpk

Hi, I use hlix gnome on potato. After today's apt-get upgrade to sawfish_0.34-helix1, sawfish draws a window frame for my gnome panels (menu panel and edge panel). I also can't unhide the edge panel anymore. Tried to tell sawfish to use "Frame-Type: None" for the menu panel, but then the panel

Sometime this morning, Helix made new packages available. I´ll bet it all works OK now, so ignore my earlier post. On Sun, Nov 12, 2000 at 09:55:07PM -0500, Joel Dinel wrote: > I can't seem to install Helix Gnome on my woody box. > > dimmu:~# apt-get install task-helix-gnome >

Re: Helix-Gnome not installable

2000-11-13 Thread Michael Epting
Since the problem is a conflict between Helix and Debian versions of some libraries, perhaps you can temporarily comment out the Debian lines in your sources.list, do an apt-get update and then try apt-get install task-helix-gnome. Don´t forget to fix your sources.list afterwards or you won´t
