Hi All I was trying to run virt-manager on my gnome 3.

[opensuse-gnome] ibus vs scim
by Bin Li 16 Jun '11

16 Jun '11

Hi, Just viewed the Vincent's 'f-spot vs shotwell' for our default photo manager application. And how about switch the default input method from scim to ibus? Right now this is scim. And also it has been moving slower. Now ibus is really moving fast and people love it. Ubuntu already use it as default. It's just my point, and we need the other to tell if it's better user experience to switch to ibus by default for 12.1. Any ideas? Thanks! Sincerely Yours, Bin Li http://zh.opensuse.org -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-gnome+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-gnome+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-gnome] Evolution / Empathy cannot connect
by Adam Tauno Williams 14 Jun '11

14 Jun '11

I have one openSUSE 11.4 workstation [desktop] that is having problems after upgrading to GNOME 3. Evolution and Empathy start but never seem to connect. Evolution is just checking-folders and empathy is "Connecting...". Eventually Evolution fails with a cannot-connect-to.... message. But other IMAP clients on the host work fine. Potentially related - Going into system settings / network results in the warning "The system network services are not compatible with this version." And there is no network manager in the top-bar. Any suggestions? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-gnome+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-gnome+help(a)opensuse.org

Quite apart from this, "Banshee and F-spot are like twins" - but if someone has no need for banshee - which I certainly have not - then what? I only have the need for vlc and have no need for banshee or amarok or totem or kaffeine or........ And now what? There is a "debate" going on elsewhere about the way linux apps. are so closely linked so that one cannot install one without having to go thru dependency hell. What you just stated sounds along these "dependency hell" lines :-( .
