Firefox under Fluxbox.

Code:

$> ls /var/log/packages/gtk+*
12K /var/log/packages/gtk+-1.2.10-i486-4
64K /var/log/packages/gtk+2-2.12.12-i486-1

That is on Slackware 12.2

So, no.

Yet I get an error saying gtk-2.0 or greater must be present.

It builds fine on my copy of Slackware 13, though I have a full install.
Make sure you have cairo, pango, freetype, and libpng installed as well.

Josh000 · 10-16-2009, 05:52 PM

OK, I have all the GTK packages installed, and it still says it needs GTK 2.0 or higher. I have not seen this before, I clearly have GTK, so why can it not find it?

Can you paste the last few lines of text from the failed build?

Here's what libclearlooks.so links against on my Slackware 13 install.

Here it is:

Code:

It seems that everything should be fine except it is not recognising my GTK install....

Also, an offtopic question, but when did /media become preferred over /mnt?

Josh000 · 10-16-2009, 06:55 PM

Ahh, I solved this. Examining what the configure script does, then using pkg-config and printing errors, and seeing that the renderphoto package was not installed. I love learning

I'd look there to see what the script is trying to do. Do you have all of the libraries listed in the above post?

It isn't. /media is used when hal / udev is used to mount something. /mnt is typically used otherwise.

disturbed1 · 10-16-2009, 07:04 PM

/media is a hal thing I believe.

Do you have pkg-config installed?
pkg-config --variable=gtk_binary_version gtk+-2.0
Should return
2.10.0

Geeze I hate starting a post then getting pulled away to do something else

Josh000 · 10-16-2009, 07:10 PM

OK, So I have it working now. Although, in my opinion, it still looks a bit off.

Here is the image without a theme, and here it is with a theme.

So, while it looks much better with a theme, it does not look as nice as I would like. Also, whatever I do, the firefox icon in the top left remains horribly pixelated.

Compare to Firefox running under Windows, and it looks, IMO, much more professional and aesthetically pleasing. Is there any way to have Firefox look equally pretty?

Yup, fixed it in the post just above yours

Hmm, so when I manually mount a CD, I should use /mnt? Not that it matters...

hal / udev is one of the things I have to learn, as it was not present when I last was involved with slack and linux. Is it used on the default slackware install at all?

That icon and the entire title bar is controlled by your Window Manager (FluxBox) and it's theme.

Ahh, that clears things up a bit. I just tried a heap of different themes and watched it change. I suppose it is actually meant to be quite small, and most of the themes blow it up.

Time to look for some high res fluxbox themes

Thanks for your help everyone.

If you actually use the mount command to mount a cd you can mount it wherever you want. I recommend using hal methods, however. You can have it auto-mounted or mount it with thunar, or you can look into mounting removable devices with something like pmount.
