Alternatively, wait two or three hours and emerge --sync, it should be available through portage then.

I think I will just go with this option.

When I run it.. well, it doesnt. from command line it (2.7.2), it returns immediately and when not.. I see nothing. Ideas?

You mean pressing F12 doesn't bring it in the foreground? Once it's active, executing yakuake will just return. Does ps -C yakuake tell it's running?

ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.. the light dawns. thanks. Thats pretty unfriendly, no gui info that a program has started up.

Well I got a popup in the upper left corner of my desktop that it had been started, but I'm on KDE 3.5, perhaps that's the reason I got one.

There's a gui notification (message with timeout) on the first startup. Executing yakuake when it's already running should bring up something like that again, that would indeed be more userfriendly. Maybe you can write a feature request?

Feature request page for Yakuake is?

By the way, 2.7.3 is out ;-).

I didn't notice what was causing my very long startups until I removed Kuake and installed this wonderful app. Damn Kuake and hurray for yaKuake. I like the tabbing a lot.

Great tool, but I'd like to have it transparent. Is it possible ? I haven't found it anything about it in forum nad homepage ...

You can do that by creating a transparent schema in Konsole and then loading it in Yakuake.

Hi there,

I've just installed yakuake, but I can't get it work. It runs, a small notification pop-up appear, but in konsole (where I run it) I get the following message:

Code: Select all

$ yakuake
Uh oh.. can't write data..

and F12 doesn't work....

KDE 3.5.2

Any ideas?

bobobo · Post by **bobobo** » Fri Mar 31, 2006 9:16 am

I have the same error (uh oh can't write) , with kde 3.5.2, however it otherwise runs properly.

Only pseudotransparency...

So I will stay with urxvt.

Hello,

is there any possibility to switch off the message in the upper left corner? I start yakuake together with KDE and don't want to get this message every startup

Kind regards!

I made a patch by ripping the code right out of konsole. Its ugly, and I don't think it supports reading the alpha variable of a schema - it just turns transparency on, but its been working fine for me.
