[opensuse-gnome] Using SUSE Studio for GNOME Live Images
by Paul Cutler 16 Sep '10

16 Sep '10

Hi openSUSE GNOME team! I have an interesting challenge (and marketing opportunity) for the openSUSE GNOME team. I'm writing the release notes for the upcoming GNOME 2.32 release, and for GNOME 2.30 we did not have live media (either LiveCDs or images for use with KVM, etc). In following up on that prior to release, the maintainer won't have time to try and create images. Is this something we could use SUSE Studio for? I was lurking in the openSUSE GNOME meeting this morning in IRC and in talking to Vincent, I understand we'd first have to get GNOME 2.32 working on 11.3. We have just over 2 weeks until GNOME 2.30 comes out and I think it might be cool to see new GNOME branded live images powered by SUSE Studio. If anyone wants to help out, please let myself or Vincent know. Thanks!

[opensuse-gnome] Gnome PolicyKit/polkit on 11.3
by Karl Eichwalder 15 Sep '10

15 Sep '10

I'm still working on updating the 11.3 docs. Now I'm wondering about the Gnome PolicyKit implementation. There are at least two packages: polkit-gnome and PolicyKit-gnome. polkit-gnome seems to be a library or something similar. PolicyKit-gnome come with /usr/bin/polkit-gnome-authorization that you can call. Confusingly enough, it is very different from the KDE config offerings that you can see with "systemsettings" > "Advanced" > "System policies". Why are these config option not visible in the Gnome tool? -- Karl Eichwalder R&D / Documentation SUSE LINUX Products GmbH, GF: Markus Rex, HRB 16746 (AG Nuernberg) -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-gnome+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-gnome+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-gnome] GNOME without a panel?
by Gerald Pfeifer 14 Sep '10

14 Sep '10

So, on my workstation running FACTORY GNOME now (and for a week, possibly a bit to quite longer) comes up without any panel. As you probably can imagine this slightly reduces usability. :-] Some background: - zypper verify is clean, as is zypper dup. - I see nothing in /var/log that would indicate a reason. - A process called gnome-panel is running, and when I kill that a new one is respawned. - When I run gnome-panel --replace from a terminal I get: (gnome-panel:5368): GLib-GObject-WARNING **: cannot register existing type `PanelApplet' (gnome-panel:5368): GLib-CRITICAL **: g_once_init_leave: assertion `initialization_value != 0' failed - Same happened on a newly created test account. Any ideas on what might be going on? Anything to look into?

[opensuse-gnome] Gnome:Apps misses dependency for OpenSUSE 11.3
by René Krell 10 Sep '10

10 Sep '10

Hi, I tried to update the package gwibber-2.31.90-32.2 from Gnome:Apps and found a missing dependency for OpenSUSE 11.3 (possibly for more distros): python-markupsafe which can be currently found only in the devel:languages:python repository. Seems like python-markupsafe got to be added to Gnome:Apps, also.

[opensuse-gnome] GNOME repositories for 11.3
by Valerio Mariani 10 Sep '10

10 Sep '10

Dear All, I would like to have on OpenSUSE 11.3 the latest stable version of Gnome. By this I don't mean the version that came with the distro, I mean the lastest stable. It is not clear to me, however, which repos I should enable. Looking at this page: http://en.opensuse.org/GNOME_repositories I guess that I should enable: GNOME:STABLE:x.yy / G:S:x.yy (where x.yy = GNOME version) and GNOME:Backports:x.yy / G:B:x.yy (where x.yy = GNOME version, or Factory) Maybe also: GNOME:Contrib / G:C and some of the Application directories at: GNOME:Apps However, I am curious about two more repos. The first is: GNOME:Community I understand that this is deprecated in favor of Contrib, but should I add it as of now? I notice that some applications are only in this repo. For example gtk2-engine-equinox. Finally, I found this: GNOME:/Apps/GNOME_STABLE_2.30_openSUSE_11.3 and: GNOME:/Apps/openSUSE_11.3 Should I add them, and in case I should, which one? I notice again that for example, the latest version of Liferea is only here. I have to say that comapred to KDE, where the repos to add are very clear, the Gnome situation seems a bit of a mess. Can someone help me. please? Valerio -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-gnome+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-gnome+help(a)opensuse.org
