https://github.com/pithos/pithos/blob/master/pithos/pithos.py
pithos is using next icons:
media-playback-pause-symbolic
media-playback-start-symbolic
pithos
pithos-rate-bg
pithos-album-default
not sure about the volume buttons

My best guess is that the icons are missing in LinuxLex-8 icon theme.
In that case I would look at the code and find which icons are used, and find them in gnome-icon-theme directories.
Then just a simple copy -> paste icons from gnome-icon-theme to LinuxLex-8 icon set directories.

Hmm, yad-updater.sh would be a good name. 
Fixed the text in the progress when downloading packages. It should display the package name when downloading, but not tested yet.
So here is the whole thing

Also fixed the button name here.

Could be an issue here and there but it's updating packages.
Having an option to select which package to update appears too complicated right now. I'll skip that one because it look's like a dependancy hell to me.

Have you seen this discussion?

Will take a look at the script and try to debug as well

What do you name it?  I know I can use any, just wanting to know your naming convention

Thanks

Thank you.
I haven't came up with a name. Might as well be updater.sh as I named it here. 

I've come up with a solution. Killing all the processes with the name from basename.
Using the basename means the script name can be anything.

function checklock () {
# Checks for exclusive lock and wait until package managers are closed
while  fuser /var/lib/dpkg/lock 2>&1 >/dev/null  ; do
echo "# Waiting for other software managers to finish..." $"\n"
if [ "$(pidof synaptic)" ]; then
echo "# Waiting for other software managers to finish..." $"\nsynaptic"
fi
echo 1
sleep 1
echo 30
sleep 1
echo 60
sleep 1
if [ ! -z "$(pgrep gdebi-gtk)" ]; then
echo "# Waiting for other software managers to finish..." $"\ngdebi-gtk"
fi
echo 95
sleep 1
done | (if ! yad --progress --title="$APPNAME - close any open package managers" --percentage=20 --auto-close --button="Cancel:1";then killall $(basename $0); exit; fi)

}

I've been playing with a little script to update packages.
So here is the thing. When a package manager has an exclusive lock and this script tries to start the update, it calls a function to check wheather there is a lock or not.
If there is a lock it opens a Yad progress dialog which waits until the package manager (synaptic, gdebi-gtk, aptitude, apt...) releases the lock.
Now, when I click on Cancel on that same dialog Yad kills the parent process but there is still a child process that is checking the lock.
It eventualy closes when the package manager is closed, but I wonder if there is a way to kill it along with the parent.

The problem is in function checklock. When the synaptic is running and you select the 'Update Packages' from the main dialog, click the Cancel and look for the process with htop.
Any suggestions are welcome.

QuoteWe have proven you can take systemd out and run but you cannot totally remove systemd as long as udev is still involved

That's true. systemd might be outboard but udev and loads of packages are built against it, so aside of udev, traces will remain. For systemd free loads of packages must be rebuilt and that's called something like... Devuan. 

Yep, removing the intruder (systemD) dependancies and rebuilding the packages is the only solution.
It's not only Devuan. I've been helping with some software for a certain distro lately. Also Debian Jessie based with OpenRC (no systemD). The 2 guys that rebuild packages have a lot of work. Rebuilding and testing is a job for at least 5-6 people but even more would be better.
They still managed to do a lot (ZFS support, openrc init, removed systemd dependencies, refind UEFI boot manager out-of-the-box). Cool distro but I have no idea when will they release the final. So far they released RC1 and unoficial uefi test build. http://sourceforge.net/p/refind/discussion/general/thread/a4c9422d/. I guess it will be ready when it's ready.

^ thanks for that mate.. I had not even looked in depth at the file as I was happy that shutdown and reboot worked

Take a look at this... all of the 'ways and means' of changing back to eth0 and wan0 from every damned distro that uses systemd is failing.. I have used every solution I could find over the last 3 hours to no avail

Code Select Expand

SUBSYSTEM=="net", ACTION=="add", ATTR{address}=="cat /sys/class/net/enp0s3/address", NAME="eth0"

cat /sys/class/net/enp0s3/address works from terminal, it should work from that /etc/udev/rules.d/10-network.rules file

having the mac address there is great on a one to one basis, but unless I can find a way to go back to eth0 and wlan0 a different way, this is a fruitless journey... every time on a new install the mac address is different ... so having a static mac in that file makes the network fail on a new boot

I am tired now and probably not making much sense ... try to deduce if you or anyone can

thanks

It could be the syntax
Try:
SUBSYSTEM=="net", ACTION=="add", ATTR{address}=="$(cat /sys/class/net/enp0s3/address)", NAME="eth0"

or
SUBSYSTEM=="net", ACTION=="add", DRIVERS=="?*", ATTR{address}== "$(cat /sys/class/net/enp0s3/address)",ATTR{dev_id}=="0x0", ATTR{type}=="1", KERNEL=="eth*", NAME="eth0"

about this line:

Code Select Expand

vsido_icon = "//usr/local/bin/images/vsidoorb_blk_sm_140.png"

is "//usr" a typo, or does the "//" mean something in python3?

Ah, it was a typo. 
Nice catch @PackRat
It's working because UNC paths can be used. Those are used when accessing directories and files on a network, but works on local files too.
It should be like this:
vsido_icon = "/usr/local/bin/images/vsidoorb_blk_sm_140.png"

Good catch PackRat... the line just below that also has one where:

Code Select Expand

notification_icon="/usr/share/icons/LinuxLex-8/status/24/notification-audio-volume-high.png"

has no spacing after the icon= area here

notification_icon="/usr/share/icons/LinuxLex-8/status/24/notification-audio-volume-high.png"

should be

notification_icon = "/usr/share/icons/LinuxLex-8/status/24/notification-audio-volume-high.png"

... but I ran the code with the errors and without and the code works just the same

@VastOne Python doesn't care about spaces just the indent. Though it looks better if it's properly formated.

Nice script, Misko, I think.  I'm trying to use it with Openbox.  Going to upper left corner tiles the open windows as described, but leaves the mouse pointer as an "x", which untiles (restores the original windows set-up) as soon as I click something.  That is not very useful.  What am I missing?  Where did you find the original script on LXLE?

Yes it tiles the windows so you can select one to bring it to focus.
If you just want to tile windows use:
xautolock -locker "/usr/local/bin/winfuncs 'tile'" -corners +000 -cornerdelay 1
or tile two which allows you to select two windows and tile them next to each other
xautolock -locker "/usr/local/bin/winfuncs 'tiletwo'" -corners +000 -cornerdelay 1
Cascade is also interesting:
xautolock -locker "/usr/local/bin/winfuncs 'cascade'" -corners +000 -cornerdelay 1
Found the script on a live LXLE running in a Virtual Machine. I think the script file was in /usr/local/bin

@Snap Thanks for sharing. I will have a look tomorrow.  It's very late in this time zone.

@VastOne I've been playing with this and made a lot of changes. Script makes an icon in the tray area, while it's in the memory the icon will be there.
Launches faster.
There is a right and left click menu now. Left click menu is the same except the label is added.
Right-click menu can launch PulseAudio Volume Control, Alsamixer and About dialog. Also there is a Quit option.

This is really cool misko_2083

I am going to play with this and get it to work on the top right tint2 and make it a default in VSIDO if that is all right with you

Well done mate, good solid work!

Thank you.
Sure, I'm Ok with that VSIDO get's a Volume control.

@misko_2083: Dang, works very well and easy to configure. Great addition, thanks - z

Thanks Z

@ misko_2083

You should let everyone know in your first post that the menu.py file must be made executable... 

Most know this or would figure it out, but having it there will save a step for you and for them...

Thanks

If they are launching with python3 there is no need.

Here it is in the Panel Tint2 on VSIDO



 

That's cool. Minimalistic approach but sometimes it takes some time to launch. It's faster if it stays in the memory. I'll post in the next comment, it probably won't fit in this one. 

Quote from: Snap on December 17, 2015, 06:50:05 AM
Cool. Thank you. I'm not using tint2 currently, but this one goes directly to the goodies stash.

Welcome.
