Re: GhostBSD11-Some Ideas

I think so. In octopkg there is gtk3. The version is 3.18.8_4. The doucument viewer in xfce4 looks fine with the dark theme.

Re: GhostBSD11-Some Ideas

It must be an xfce problem.

Re: Using Synth

Interesting. I turned off swap in Synth and /lang/rust went without a problem but it took about 2 hours. So did openjdk7. But with swap turned on, it failed.
I have 8gb of RAM and 3.9gb of swap. Should I create a swap file?

Re: GhostBSD11-Some Ideas

Did you try it in xfce or MATE? In my xfce machine, on some websites input fields just looked white or the font colors were very light grey in firefox.

Re: Using Synth

You're right ASX. Twice my machine has run out swap while using Synth. I reconfigured synth to not use swap and it's running well but much slower.

Thanks ericbsd. This is the code to fix up the unreadable input fields in some sites if this dark theme is used: input:not(.urlbar-input):not(.textbox-input):not(.form-control):not([type='checkbox']) { -moz-appearance: none !important; background-color: white; color: black; } #downloads-indicator-co...

Re: Using Synth

Thanks ASX and kraileth for your helpful posts. This is what I did. I already had the ports tree so I moved it to another location. I ran the command: # svnlite co svn://svn.freebsd.org/ports/head /usr/ports then: # mkdir -p /usr/ports/distfiles then: pkg install synth but perhaps better is: make -C...

Re: GUI goes nuts booting Live DVD

Hi. Are you trying to boot xfce or MATE? There are problems with the GhostBSD 11 MATE version at the moment. If you want to boot xfce just choose "startxfce4" and it should get to the desktop.

I think I should concentrate on what I can contribute most to GhostBSD. Since I'm the only native English speaker I should contribute m...
