That is hard masked, and probably for a good reason.

Probably yes, but for some reason it got onto my system (it was masked only afterwards ;)).

So, this was JFYI - and because I thought it wasn't appropriate to open a blocker bug to lua-5.2.0 for a live overlay package.

Somebody managed to compile elementary recently? Just trying to update e17 after a few weeks and elementary cannot be built with a compile error which looks like a missing header file is missing.

Quote:

EDIT: problem soleved...just reformated my /var LV from reiserfs to ext4 because i lost my [...]/svn-src/enlightenment after a reboot and re-emerged the whole e17 set.

Just wanted to give e17 another shot, fetched it from Vapier's overlay (layman -a enlightenment), setup keywords for Live and `emerge enlightenment:0.17`. That worked, but `enlightenment_start` breaks with
Code:
<<<< Enlightenment Error >>>>
Enlightenment cannot initialize Ecore_X!


Googled for it, but found no working solution, so I'd just like to know, did I miss something or is it just a temporary breakage?

Haven't changed any flags yet, but sure.

Code:
# emerge -pv evas ecore

These are the packages that would be merged, in order:

Calculating dependencies  ... done!
[ebuild   R   *] media-libs/evas-9999::enlightenment  USE="X bmp eet fontconfig gif ico jpeg mmx nls opengl png ppm psd sdl sse svg threads tiff xcb (-altivec) -bidi -directfb -doc -fbcon -gles -sse3 -static-libs -tga -xpm" 0 kB
[ebuild   R   *] dev-libs/ecore-9999::enlightenment  USE="X evas inotify ipv6 nls opengl sdl ssl threads xcb xinerama -ares -curl -directfb -doc -fbcon -glib -gnutls -static-libs -test -tslib -xprint -xscreensaver" 0 kB


The only warning I get after emerge is done, is about having both X and xcb enabled and that it'll default to X. That should be fine, though, already worked in the past this way.

Your flags seem fine. Do you have a second set of libraries installed?

Somehow found a workaround - or it's normal...

while
Code:
# enlightenment_start
produces the error above,
Code:
echo "exec enlightenment_start" > /etc/X11/Sessions/e17
chmod +x /etc/X11/Sessions/e17
XSESSION=e17 startx
does work

Oh! You didn't have an X server running! enlightenment_start will not start an X server for you. This is why this "workaround" works - startx first starts the X server and then it launches enlightenment.

I have trouble with e17 and TwinView. I have libreoffice impress and okular configured to show presentation on screen 2, but when I launch a presentation it is always shown on the screen from which it has been launched. In impress also the presenter console is shown on the same screen as the presentation, which makes it useless.

Hm, maybe I should add some questions...

Is there anybody using e17 together with a nvidia graphic card and proprietary nvidia driver?

If so, can you confirm that presentations on display 2 (e.g. on an attached beamer or monitor) work for you?

Or do you experience the same problem?

Do you have an idea how to solve this problem? Do you have a custom xorg.conf or any workaround?

Yes.

Yes. But I haven't tried having the application on one screen and the presentation on the other screen.

Not sure how to help you. I don't have access to a dual monitor system right now.

Yes, using nvidia proprietary drivers but like ppurka I don't have a dual monitor setup. Sorry.

Hello fellow e17 gentooligan users,
I added media-gfx/exquisite ebuild the other day on my overlay (ref. my sig.) if some are interested in testing/using it. I did not quite read e17 news board lately and I've just noticed that media-gfx/exquisite-1.0 (splash based on EFL libraries) was released for quite some time now. I could have modified the default theme for an efenniht variant but alas the default theme does not work (for me?).

More annoying, e17-wm became more instable lately or rather a few days ago build is is rather instable: the wm is contantly fails for new pop (firefox) or simple windows open/close. I may downgrade to a previous svn version in few days if I had to keep restarting e17-wm.

I tried an E17 update today and I'm having issues with ecore. I keep getting:

Code:

checking whether Ecore_Wayland module is to be built... no (dependency failed)
checking whether ecore_evas Wayland Shm support is to be built... yes
checking whether ecore_evas Wayland Shm support is built... no
checking whether ecore_evas Wayland Egl support is to be built... yes

checking whether tests are built... no
checking whether examples are built... no
checking whether examples are installed... no
configure: error: conditional "EFL_HAVE_WNO_OVERRIDE_INIT" was never defined.
Usually this means the macro was only invoked conditionally.

Has anybody ever seen this? I un-merged all of E17 since I was having a hardware issue and tried to re-install from scratch with no avail. Now I can't get E17 back and I'm feeling crippled without E17.

There is a ticket: http://trac.enlightenment.org/e/ticket/1035

Try unmerging all efl related packages and then re-emerge them using an older revision. To do so, export the environment variable ESVN_REVISION before running emerge.
Code:
export ESVN_REVISION="71900" # for example I chose 71900 here
emerge eina eet <other packages>

Thanks. I tried searching everywhere and couldn't find anything related.

E17 is such an efficient desktop, it makes you feel crippled when it doesn't work.

Not sure if it's related, but for the past few weeks I've been having deadlocks on my computer. The mouse pointer starts to slow, then jumps once or twice, then deadlock. If I'm fast enough to restart E once the cursor slows, it doesn't deadlock and resumes normal use, but that rarely happens. Only problem is I can't track it down to anything specific since I also had a video card failure and CPU overheating issues prior to the deadlocks happening. There's nothing in the logs at all and everything deadlocks including the network. I've been running LXDE since ecore wouldn't merge and I've had no deadlocks so I'm wondering if it's E17 related. I did go from an old nVidia card to a modern Radeon so the video drivers did change.

1. Are you using composite in e17?
2. If so, are you using the opengl backend for composite?
3. If your answer to 2. is yes, then try either disabling composite or changing to software backend. Do you still get lock ups with this setting?

If the answer to 3. is no, then it means that the problem is with your graphics drivers.

Since today's update I cannot lock the screen from command line any more:

Code:

It used to look like this:

method QDBusRawType::a(iiiis) org.enlightenment.wm.Desktop.Background.List()
method QString org.enlightenment.wm.Audit.Timers()


All the Desktop related calls are gone?

FIXED:

The module System -> DBus Extension has to be loaded.

Since 3 or 4 months, I can not update e17, all dependancy are ok but for e17, I get a message


Code:

Requested 'eeze >= 1.2.0' but version of eeze is 1.0.999.60848

Consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if you
installed software in a non-standard prefix.

Alternatively, you may set the environment variables E_FM_CFLAGS
and E_FM_LIBS to avoid the need to call pkg-config.
See the pkg-config man page for more details.

@nost4r

Do you have a Symlink to /var/lib/layman/enlightenment/scripts/package.keywords.livecvs in /etc/portage/package.keywords/ ?

Check with:
Code:
ls -al /etc/portage/package.keywords/enlightenment
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 62 11. Mär 13:18 /etc/portage/package.keywords/enlightenment -> /var/lib/layman/enlightenment/scripts/package.keywords.livecvs


If not you can create it this way (under the assumption that /etc/portage/package.keywords is a directory not a file and the enlightenment overlay is in /var/lib/layman/enlightenment):
Code:
ln -s /var/lib/layman/enlightenment/scripts/package.keywords.livecvs /etc/portage/package.keywords/enlightenment

Is there a way to export/import or update ~/.e configuration in a way it properly survives updates?

I experienced e17 crashes after updates due to broken personal configuration, i.e. e17 works fine after (re)moving the outdated ~/.e directory. But then I have to reconfigure everything by hand again.

My update process is:


  • System update:
    Code:
    layman -S
    eix-sync
    emerge -avuND world
    emerge -avc
    revdep-rebuild

  • e17 update:
    Code:
    emerge -av1 dev-libs/eina dev-libs/eet media-libs/evas dev-libs/ecore dev-libs/embryo media-libs/edje dev-libs/efreet dev-libs/e_dbus dev-libs/eeze x11-wm/enlightenment $(eix --in-overlay "enlightenment" -I --only-names | grep -E -v -e "dev-libs/eina|dev-libs/eet|media-libs/evas|dev-libs/ecore|dev-libs/embryo|media-libs/edje|dev-libs/efreet|dev-libs/e_dbus|dev-libs/eeze|x11-wm/enlightenment")
    emerge -avc
    revdep-rebuild

    The command above fist rebuilds the e17 components in recommended order. Then it rebuilds everything installed from the enlightenment overlay (except the already rebuild components).

Hi, I tried to install this from the ::enlightenment overlay today (want to try it as an alternative to razor-qt), but it won't build with USE="-udev" (missing something called "ehal"), and pulls in an insane amount of deps with USE=udev. I don't need hotplugging, automounting or any of that cruft, is there any way to turn it off?

Not sure why you have this kind of trouble. My current configuration is more than 2 years old, and I haven't had any trouble with it.

I suspect you are using some external module which doesn't play well with upgrades. In the future instead of erasing the whole .e, first try to remove the configuration files of the external e modules (the ones from e_modules-*). These files will be under ~/.e/e/config/<profile>/module.<modulename>.*cfg.

Hi, I tried to install this from the ::enlightenment overlay today (want to try it as an alternative to razor-qt), but it won't build with USE="-udev" (missing something called "ehal"), and pulls in an insane amount of deps with USE=udev. I don't need hotplugging, automounting or any of that cruft, is there any way to turn it off?
I don't think you can avoid udev or hal while installing e17. hal is not currently in portage, but e17 still supports hal (for BSD I think) and tries to look for ehal that is some efl/e17 component that interfaces with hal. A lot of e17 modules depend on udev/hal - temperature, battery, are two that comes to my mind right now

I don't think it is really a drag to put udev in, it is a requirement of many packages, isn't it?
Plus, I don't think anyone should be using hal in gentoo anylonger. It is deprecated and evil.
