you should exit X before doing any dist-upgrades ^^^^^

 

[eNightmare]

Thats a WHOLE lot of K-Menu.

BTW how is everyone getting transparency in gkrellm? Can i do that without the composite extensions?

 

[Flamed_Chip]

Yup, the transparency is just from a theme. It's a "fake" type of transparency used by a lot of K applications that just overlays the correct area of the background over the areas that are transparent. Konsole uses the same kind of thing.

 

[Arkaine23]

Many of us are using superkaramba, not gkrellm.

is that what you are using?

EDIT: Does it use any kde libraries?

 

[Arkaine23]

I have never seen it work correctly outside of KDE.

 

[eNightmare]

well thats no good...are there any alternatives to gkrellm that would be acceptable in a gnome environment?

 

[SatanSkin]

Torsmo works great for me.

Really? Could you or someone else expalin why? I have read the apt how to and noticed nothing there that states I should, and have been dist-upgrading daily for many months in X and have had no issues. hmmmm?

Thanks
