entrance issues

Hi all does anyone setup and have working enlightenment and entrance?I emerged enlightenment from cvs and entrance successfully but i can't add any other sessions.I wish i could add xfce and enlightenment but i can't get it worked.I edit the database with

Code:

edb_gtk_ed /etc/entrance_config.db

command and did that

Quote:

/entrance/session/[num]/icon default.png
/entrance/session/[num]/session xfce4
/entrance/session/[num]/title Xfce 4

(as number i add once to the above ones for the sessions)
but i can't get it to work.Only when i edit kde session and make it xfce i managed to succeed but i want to add a new one entry.Also i can't change the theme for entrance whenever i change it in the database entrance becomes very crappy any idea for that?Any suggestions?

Not at my box right now, but I believe there is a variable that controls how many sessions are listed. Look for this in the entrance config...it may solve your woes. If not, I'll take a look at mine when I get home tonight. :wink:

To emerge something from cvs you should unmask the package from

Code:

-*

keyword in /etc/portage/package.keywords files
e.g.

Code:

echo x11-misc/engage -* >> /etc/portage/package.keywords

Tonight, later in the week...same diff. :wink:

/entrance/session/count is what you're looking for, though. That specifies the number of sessions that are listed. 8)

On a tangent, are you trying out e17 or are you running e16 still? 8)

Yeah...there are a couple things that I miss (Alt+TAB..) running e17, but all in all I really enjoy it. They've done such a great job with the development of this WM...8)
