Pekwm + xfce4 panel [SOLVED]

Hi all
After reading in the forum about pekwm I decided to give it a shoot.
I just love the "tabed" window funktion
Now to the problem
The trouble i have is that when I'm using mplayer or gmplayer in fullscreen mode the panel and iconbox is in the foreground.
Conky and all other windows stays in the background
Is there a way to alter this behaivior.
My .xinitrc
xfce4-iconbox &
xfdesktop &
xfce4-panel &
conky &
exec pekwm
Many thanks
Clanman

Hi Dusty
After your tip I dug into Pekwm and found the autoproperties
~/.pekwm/autoproperties
I added this
Property = "^xfce4-panel,^Xfce4-panel" {
ApplyOn = "Start"
Layer = "Harbour"
Property = "^MPlayer,^MPlayer" {
ApplyOn = "Start New"
Layer = "Menu"
Now my mplayer gets the top window placement.
Tanks for the tip

  • [SOLVED] Xfce 4.8, "no running instance of xfce4-panel has been found"

    Hello fellow Archers!
    I just upgraded my Xfce installation to version 4.8, but I have a weird problem with xfce4-panel. After upgrading the system via pacman I've rebooted, and after logging in I couldn't see the Xfce's panel anymore! Moreover, a dialog box pops up saying that "no running instance of xfce4-panel has been found". I've tried to fix this issue by launching xfce4-panel through a terminal, and then saving the session before logging out. Now when I log in, I can finally see the panel, but the pop up window keeps coming out every single time. Do you have any suggestions on what could be the issue?
    Thanks in advance!

  • [SOLVED] xfce4-panel/workspace with compiz/xfwm4

    Its the weird problem:
    in compiz (ccsm/general option Desktop Size)
    * Horizontal Virtual Size = 4
    * Vertical Virtual Size = 1
    * Number of Desktops =1
    in xfce (setting/workspace)
    * No of Workspace=1
    # Problem 1
    It seem `xfce's no workspace` == `compiz's no of Desktop` is hard linked
    compiz ==> xfce4 : no of workspace changes from 1 to 4
    xfce4 ==> compiz : no of workspace changes from 4 to 1
    # Problem 2
    if you change compiz's
    * Number of Desktops = 4
    The Problem 1 is solved BUT
    .. xfce4-panel starts acting weird!
    showing all the workspace windows in one panel

    GOT # reply form IRC
    (10:13:36 PM) soreau:
    Number of Desktops should always be one. Compiz is unique from other window managers in that it uses (GL) viewports instead of desktops. (multiple desktop functionality was never actually implemented). Most DE components only support desktops, not viewports, even though it's part of the EWMH spec.

  • [solved] xfce4-panel 4.8.0-1 only on one desktop

    Hello,
    xfce4-panel got updated today to version 4.8.0-1. Now I have the problem, that the panel appears only on the desktop it was started, but does not remain sticky as expected.  I'm using plain openbox without xfce stuff. I also removed the old configs, same problem.
    Any hints?
    Vlad
    PS: Set the openbox internal application settings to sticky in rc.xml:
    <application name="xfce4-panel">
            <desktop>all</desktop>
        </application>
    Now it appears on all desktops, but it should work without this. It's definitely a bug...

    Then make openbox --replace run after that (to kill xfwm and start openbox) by adding this:

    <value type="string" value="openbox"/>
    <value type="string" value="--replace"/>
    </property>
    <property name="Client5_PerScreen" type="bool" value="false"/>
    And lastly, make xfce recognize that last entry by changing this:
    <property name="Count" type="int" value="5"/>
    for this:
    <property name="Count" type="int" value="6"/>
    Relog after that and there you go

  • [solved] xfce4-panel plugins keep crashing after update

    I've been having problems with xfce4-panel after some recent updates. Several plugins for it, like the Action Buttons, CPU graph and Notification Area keep crashing right after being added to the panel. The error message isn't very helpful, just saying the plugin in question "unexpectedly left the panel". Any ideas on how to debug this?
    Last edited by vox.cogitatio (2012-06-12 15:36:38)

    I found the problem. I was running the panel without the rest of xfce4. I thought this was doable, but apparently some applets assume you have the base packages of xfce4 installed, as the problems ceased when I installed them.

  • [SOLVED] xfce4-panel: Window buttons w/ Compiz

    Hi, I've successfully done the seemingly daunting task of getting Compiz to work with XFCE. Everything appears to be set up, got my keyboard shortcuts in order, etc., however I don't like how the xfce4-panel's Window Buttons behave when running with Compiz. I have specifically set it to show only windows visible on the current desktop (or as Compiz calls it, viewports), but it looks like it still shows all windows from all viewports, as if like it treats all of them as one big desktop. I know this is a problem with xfce4-panel still thinking that it's communicating with xfwm, but I do like to resolve this annoying pet peeve. Are there any workarounds/fixes/patches for this that could help? Thanks in advance.
    Last edited by qtcaroline22 (2012-05-17 01:53:05)

    I made Compiz autostart with XFCE using the first method with the Fusion icon as described in Compiz's Arch Wiki article. Perhaps it is related to Xfwm and Compiz running together? I'll try the other methods and see if the problem persists.
    EDIT: I fixed it, I just followed the solution on this thread and everything works perfectly now. Seems like Googling with the right keywords will almost always point me to the solution.

  • [SOLVED] Xfce4, panel that at desktop level.

    I would like to have a panel that is not always on top.
    Reading around I find this solution:
    First set an hidden setting on the panel:
    $ xfconf-query -c xfce4-panel -p /panels/panel-1/disable-struts -t bool -s true
    Find the panel ID.
    $ wmctrl -l | grep xfce4-panel
    0x00c00004 -1 mysticalwhatisit xfce4-panel
    0x00c00020 -1 mysticalwhatisit xfce4-panel
    Put the panel below (by chance as from what I understood you cannot be sure of what is the correct one...).
    $ wmctrl -i -r 0x00c00020 -b add,below
    It works, but the effect is lost after a xfce restart.
    I found a solution about an hackish bash script executed every login, but it seems so crazy... there is really no better way to get a panel that is not always on top?
    Last edited by ezzetabi (2012-03-31 07:18:24)

    Well, from the lack of answers I guess there is really no other solution. So here is a small bash script that might help everyone with the same problem:
    #!/bin/sh
    function getPanelIdImpl() {
    PANEL="`wmctrl -l | sed -n -e '/xfce4-panel$/ s_ .*$__ p' | sed -n -e $1' p'`"
    function getPanelId() {
    getPanelIdImpl $1
    while [[ x == x$PANEL ]] ;do
    sleep 0.5s
    getPanelIdImpl $1
    done
    function putPanelDown() {
    PANEL=""
    getPanelId $1
    wmctrl -i -r $PANEL -b add,below
    #putPanelDown 1
    #putPanelDown 2
    Just call putPanelDown with the panels you want not always-on-top.

  • [SOLVED] Xfce4 panel, no notification area

    I've just installed Fluxbox onto my Arch install and I desired a proper panel, because of the relatively few dependencies and lack of messing around I chose the xfce4-panel. However I can't seem to have a systray/notification area. If I attempt to add one to the panel I get the error
    "There is already a notification area running on this screen."
    Which there isn't, not to my knowledge anyway. After that box closes I get the message;
    "Could not open "systray" module"
    I've been looking around for a while to see if I can install said module, but to no avail.
    Any suggestions?

    I looked around and foung ./config/xfce4 in my home directory. to be safe I deleted that entire directory and all of its contents. got out of my desktop. cleared pacmans cache so that I would be pulling the packages from the web new in case it was a bad download issue. then did an in place reinstall of the entire xfce4 group, which does include xfce4-panel. when I logged back in my entire desktop was back to the defaults except I still have no panel and cannot load the panel manager to try to turn it back on.

  • Compiz as stand-alone + xfce4-panel : a few questions

    After some months with gnome 3 I decided to go back to compiz, as I used to use that with gnome 2.xx and appreciated it quite a bit. I ran into a few problems when trying to set it up properly.
    First, is there some way to enable session management with compiz? I would like to be able to have a button or menu that offers to sleep, reboot or shutdown the computer. Not that I mind using 'pm-suspend' and other commands like that, but my girlfriend also uses the computer sometimes so it needs to be more user-friendly than that. I noticed there is an actions button by default in the xfce panel but it doesn't work in compiz and just says 'session management is disabled, do you want to exit X' or something like that.
    Second, I need some sort of run prompt when I hit alt-f2. The 'gnome compatibility' option in ccsm doesn't seem to work in standalone mode.
    Third, I want the computer to automatically sleep when I flip the lid. In gnome 3, it does that without any special configuration, but this doesn't work with compiz as a stand-alone. I suspect I need to configure it to pick up the 'lid is flipped' event somehow?
    Fourth, I need a volume control option that will display a volume icon in my xfce4 panel notification area and most importantly I need that volume control icon to respond accurately to the input from my 'mute' and volume 'up' and 'down' buttons. It's a thinkpad x220 laptop. I bring it to school often, so being able to know whether my volume is on or off is important when in class. This works fine in gnome3 but I have tried other DE's such as LXDE and found that the volume icon stayed the same as I used the volume buttons on the keyboard (the buttons did work, so it could be muted but still displaying that it's at full volume). To check if it was muted or not, I had to open a terminal and use alsamixer.
    Of course, I don't NEED to be using xfce4-panel. What I need is a menu, and automatic menu generation is nice because it's easier to configure. So I picked that one because I've used it in the past. If there is a better alternative, please recommend it. Or perhaps it would be best if I simply ran gnome fallback and compiz as the WM?

    I'm using compiz standalone, so here's how i solved that stuff.
    You can use obshutdown for session management, it's in AUR, look in its config file, slap a launcher in the corner of you panel, set the icon for prettyness and it works pretty well.
    I use gmrun as a launcher, set alt+f2 to call it. It's pretty simple which is what i like. You can also use synapse, or gnome-do, they have more functionality like searching your bookmarks, your files, your loved one's medical history, you name it.
    For volume control, you can use pnmixer from aur, it sits in your system tray, and you can set it's hotkeys, but you can also use CCSM to set your hotkeys for volume management.
    I think laptop-tools(check the wiki) can be used to put your computer to sleep, and general powersaving. You should check the article named laptop in the wiki for other laptop-related stuff too. I think i used xfce4-power-manager for power management as well a while ago.
    I used xfce4-panel for a while but i didn't really like it as much as i liked the old gnome-panel, so i installed mate-panel(which is the old gnome-panel). You can find it in AUR, or you can check it's wiki article for repos you can add for mate(if you want to install it from aur, it will pull some aur dependancies, and i didn't feel like compiling everything).

  • XFCE4 panel Action buttons don't work

    Hello,
    I'm having multiple problems with Action buttons from XFCE4 panel. I use slim (1.3.3-5) and Xfce (4.10).
    1. Suspend and switch user option is greyed out.
    2. The 'main button' (which displays user name) appears about 2 minutes after log in. When I try to click on it, it's unresponsive for about another 2 minutes.
    3. When I finally get to click on 'Shut Down' it only logs me out to slim.
    When I restart dbus (/etc/rc.d/dbus restart) while logged in to XFCE the button appears instantly, and is responsive. Shut down doesn't work though.
    [skyer@sig ~]$ cat .xinitrc
    #!/bin/sh
    # ~/.xinitrc
    # Executed by startx (run your window manager from here)
    if [ -d /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc.d ]; then
    for f in /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc.d/*; do
    [ -x "$f" ] && . "$f"
    done
    unset f
    fi
    # exec gnome-session
    # exec startkde
    exec startxfce4
    # ...or the Window Manager of your choice
    Both dbus daemon and dbus-launch are present all the time.

    login-session-id = '1'
    I did not change slim.conf - its just as it was when freshly installed.
    Thanks for help.

    It could be an issue with your session environment not being set correctly. I use the following script to start my session (using lightdm, not slim, but this should be ok for your xinitrc)
    #!/bin/sh
    # Load profile
    for file in "/etc/profile" "$HOME/.profile" "/etc/xprofile" "$HOME/.xprofile"; do
    if [ -f "$file" ]; then
    echo "Loading profile from $file";
    . "$file"
    fi
    done
    # Load resources
    for file in "/etc/X11/Xresources" "$HOME/.Xresources"; do
    if [ -f "$file" ]; then
    echo "Loading resource: $file"
    xrdb -nocpp -merge "$file"
    fi,,,,,,,
    done
    # Load keymaps
    for file in "/etc/X11/Xkbmap" "$HOME/.Xkbmap"; do
    if [ -f "$file" ]; then
    echo "Loading keymap: $file"
    setxkbmap `cat "$file"`
    XKB_IN_USE=yes
    fi
    done
    # Load xmodmap if not using XKB
    if [ -z "$XKB_IN_USE" ]; then
    for file in "/etc/X11/Xmodmap" "$HOME/.Xmodmap"; do
    if [ -f "$file" ]; then
    echo "Loading modmap: $file"
    xmodmap "$file"
    fi
    done
    fi
    unset XKB_IN_USE
    # Run all system xinitrc shell scripts.
    xinitdir="/etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc.d"
    if [ -d "$xinitdir" ]; then
    for script in $xinitdir/*; do
    echo "Loading xinit script $script"
    if [ -x "$script" -a ! -d "$script" ]; then
    . "$script"
    fi
    done
    fi
    # Load Xsession scripts
    xsessionddir="/etc/X11/Xsession.d"
    if [ -d "$xsessionddir" ]; then
    for i in `ls $xsessionddir`; do
    script="$xsessionddir/$i"
    echo "Loading X session script $script"
    if [ -r "$script" -a -f "$script" ] && expr "$i" : '^[[:alnum:]_-]\+$' > /dev/null; then
    . "$script"
    fi
    done
    fi
    echo "X session wrapper complete, running session $@"
    exec $@
    Also, you may need to wrap consolekit around your session as per the wiki: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Xfce
    Cheers.
