If we don't have enough content to make the Patches and Upstreaming pages separate right now, having them be one is fine. If we ever need to, we can always split them in two again. :) -Boyd >>> Rodrigo Moya <rodrigo(a)novell.com> 09/21/07 6:07 AM >>> On Fri, 2007-09-21 at 13:19 +0200, Rodrigo Moya wrote: > On Thu, 2007-09-20 at 15:43 -0600, Boyd Timothy wrote: > > Hey everyone, > > > > Thanks for everyone's feedback for the Wiki Layout Proposal [1].

I really think we should merge this page and the Upstreaming one, since they both deal mostly with the same thing.

[opensuse-gnome] (initial try at) patch count
by Rodrigo Moya 24 Sep '07

24 Sep '07

Hi I'm writing an OSC plugin (http://en.opensuse.org/Build_Service/osc_plugins) for adding a listpatches command. I haven't been able to get the list of files from GNOME:UNSTABLE (just a single _link entry shows up), so this is from GNOME:STABLE: http://www.gnome.org/~rodrigo/GNOME:STABLE-2007-09-21-17.53.36 Take into account that some patches might be disabled in the .spec file, so not all of them are used, but at least it can give us a first impression of what packages need more attention. -- Rodrigo Moya <rodrigo(a)novell.com> -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-gnome+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-gnome+help(a)opensuse.org

It's a good point, an amendment to the Updated Packages section that reads something like this is an option: ---- Updated packages that in turn require other packages to be updated should be tested outside of GNOME:Community prior to inclusion in the same way as new packages. ---- -- James Ogley james(a)usr-local-bin.org http://usr-local-bin.org GNOME for openSUSE: http://software.opensuse.org/download/GNOME:/ Help end poverty: http://oxfam.org.uk/in -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-gnome+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-gnome+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-gnome] Bluetooth Device Configuration
by Justin Haygood 21 Sep '07

21 Sep '07

The GNOME distrib in openSUSE lacks a tool to configure Bluetooth devices (especially mice!). I'm always stuck with using KBluetooth to configure my mouse... Any chance we can get a GNOME app or control panel or something to connect to devices that doesn't require a terminal or KBluetooth? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-gnome+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-gnome+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-gnome] Application Browser: Background Color of the Selected Area
by Karl Eichwalder 21 Sep '07

21 Sep '07

IMO, the Application Browser colors are a bit surprising as long as you use the default bright desktop colors. If you click on "Utilies" it darkens the wanted area with a blueish color. But I'd expect some kind of highlighting. I'd rather dim away with this blue or gray the groups the user is not interested in.

[opensuse-gnome] gnome is ......
by James Tremblay 21 Sep '07

21 Sep '07

Guys, It is incredible what you all have done with GNOME since SuSE 9.3 \NLD9 you should all be very proud of the things you have accomplished and I hope that 10.3 brings you all many deserved accolades. Installing and running a gnome based computer is as easy as any other OS on the market.

[opensuse-gnome] bluez-gnome
by James Ogley 21 Sep '07

21 Sep '07

Anyone who was on #opensuse-gnome yesterday may have heard me complaining about bluez-gnome. So, G:C now has an updated version (0.14 compared with 0.6 in Factory) which is actually useful. If you use bluetooth peripherals at all, please try it out, abuse it and try to break it and maybe once Factory's open for updates again after 10.3, we can get it in ready for 11.0. -- James Ogley james(a)usr-local-bin.org http://usr-local-bin.org GNOME for openSUSE: http://software.opensuse.org/download/GNOME:/ Help end poverty: http://oxfam.org.uk/in -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-gnome+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-gnome+help(a)opensuse.org
