[EN] [Solved] kernel-remover no check boxes
« on: 2017/03/18, 03:49:07 »
Hi folks,

Not sure why, but Kernel-remover does not display check boxes to select kernels at present.

Any suggestions?

No check boxes appear for me unfortunately.



With regard to Zenity.

Code: [Select]
apt-cache policy zenity
zenity:
  Installed: 3.22.0-1+b1
  Candidate: 3.22.0-1+b1
  Version table:
 *** 3.22.0-1+b1 500
        500 http://ftp.au.debian.org/debian unstable/main amd64 Packages
        100 /var/lib/dpkg/status

This is a fairly recent development, so I'm not entirely sure why this has occured.

What dark theme are you using ?

I either give too many fucks or no fucks at all, it's like I cannot find a middle ground for a moderate fuck distribution, it's like what the fuck

Hi Piper,

Essentially it is breeze dark with the Wonton Soup colour scheme. But I've tweaked a couple of colours in Wonton Soup.

I also use the Arc-Dark KDE icon theme which is included in a package from....

https://github.com/PapirusDevelopmentTeam/arc-kde

For any GTK apps you may use, I've installed Breeze-Dark-GTK

https://github.com/dirruk1/gnome-breeze/

Cheers mate.

If kernel-remover performs correctly in tty1 and not in tty7 (gui) you may need to go back and check your text and background color settings. As something might have changed in your last upgrade???

You could well be onto something here.

Kernel-remover works correctly in tty1 but the check boxes do not appear in tty7.

I've logged in as root temporarily and tried a number of colour / font options including setting back to defaults.

So far no luck.

At least though as you've pointed out I can use tty1.

Cheers.

You can try this also

Edit the first 3 line's of

/usr/share/patience-kde-settings/etc/gtk-2.0/gtkrc

to look like

Code: [Select]
#include "/usr/share/themes/Adwaita/gtk-2.0/gtkrc"
gtk-font-name="DejaVu Sans Book 9"
#gtk-theme-name="Adwaita"

Restart x

Yeah, had a feeling that was the problem, that's why I asked about "dark theme"

Glad it's fixed :)

That's the thing Piper, I've been using that dark theme for several months now without any problems, and the checkboxes 'disappeared' so to speak after a recent dist-upgrade.

Whenever you see any gtk stuff, 

Code: [Select]
/etc/gtk-2.0  or 
Code: [Select]
/usr/share/patience-kde-settings/etc/gtk-2.0
get "updated" you will have to make those changes again.
