Hello,
I did some looking into window managers in recent oe/meta-oe/angstrom,
and this is what I found:
matchbox
- is this still maintained? Does not seem like a lot of new development.
xfce
- looks promising, but xconf did not build
gnome
- build problems
enlightenment
- builds, but got stuck with enlightenment_start.oe, no profiles
listed, so can't get through the initial dialogs on startup
twm
-worked, but is very minimalist
Questions:
1) any opinions on WM for embedded Linux systems? For most projects,
we simply run a single full screen app, but a WM would be nice in some
cases.
2) any idea how to get profiles installed so that enlightenment can
start? Is there any way to bypass this for a canned embedded
scenario?
Thanks,
Cliff
