Release Candidates :: DSL v4.0 alpha2



Is anyone else experiencing an awful interaction between torsmo and dfm?  Whenever I boot DSL 4.0 with the background context of dfm enabled, right-clicking on the desktop and using a dfm feature results in torsmo reseting and failing to show up again for a couple seconds, instead of the usual quick return.  Similarly, when it refreshes every 5 seconds, it takes several seconds to even reappear.  I suspect double_buffer might not be set, but I don't have it in in front of me to check.

A compromise might be a mass convert to .xbm (48x48) (edit:I mean .xpm) and inline coding to just resize.

It appears dfm accepts icons other than 32x32 (e.g aterm).
Anyways, I offer an .xpm resizer (albeit no lua);

Think of 32x32 a uniform standard or convention.

I offer another:

imagemagick convert -geometry ...

eh, I meant for the extension loader (can't expect the distro to include imagemagick). It can probably be done with lua, and it would be a lot smaller too (anyone up for the challenge?)
I would rather batch convert the extensions and have 32x32 be the new standard.

Perhaps I will issue a 3.x with resized xtdesk icons as well.

The less processing done dynamcially, as this only benefits eye candy, the better the performance on our smaller machines.
