[opensuse-gnome] main-menu question
by James Ogley 17 Jan '08

17 Jan '08

This has been driving me nuts today... Ages ago, I monkeyed around with GConf keys for gnome-main-menu and specifically the System area. I changed the package manager to Smart and removed some of the buttons. Anyway, those options are no longer part of the schemas for the menu but my settings remain. I've removed all GConf keys that I've set that in anyway relate to the menu but it still persists. If I disable the system area being user-modifiable, the "factory" settings are restored but I'd like to be able to control it again - is this possible? (Why would I like to maintain control? Because I'd like to keep the package manager as Smart while restoring buttons such as Logout) Any thoughts would be gratefully received. -- 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] Broken seahorse?
by Carlos E. R. 16 Jan '08

16 Jan '08

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi, Let me ask this question here, as elsewhere I got no answer. For some time I was unable to ssh from my computer to another old one. I thought it would be a version problem, but then I discovered I could not ssh to my own router as my normal user, but I could do su-ing to a different user first. I then discovered that this sequence works: cer@nimrodel:~> SSH_AGENT_PID='' SSH_ASKPASS='' SSH_AUTH_SOCK='' ssh 1234@router 1234@router's password: -> So there is a broken ssh agent in my system. But which one? One day I killed most of them, and from then on I can ssh sucessfully. I have three running now (after a fresh reboot and an hybernate to disk): cer@nimrodel:~> ps axu | grep agent cer 5614 0.0 0.0 2980 604 ? Ss 09:14 0:00 /usr/bin/gpg-agent --sh --daemon cer 5615 0.0 0.0 5456 700 ? Ss 09:14 0:00 /usr/bin/ssh-agent /bin/bash /home/cer/.xinitrc cer 5726 0.3 0.5 95160 5204 ?

Ss 09:14 0:00 /usr/bin/seahorse-agent cer 21030 0.0 0.0 2076 700 pts/18 R+ 12:22 0:00 grep agent cer@nimrodel:~> set | grep SSH SSH_AGENT_PID=5615 SSH_ASKPASS=/usr/lib/ssh/x11-ssh-askpass SSH_AUTH_SOCK=/tmp/ssh-cBjhK5570/agent.5570 There are at least two, possible three instances of "seahorse-agent" running, and one plain "ssh-agent". When I do "ssh 1234@router" I'm asked for the passphrases to my four "*dsa" files: cer@nimrodel:~> l .ssh/*dsa - -rw------- 1 cer users 736 2004-03-19 03:17 .ssh/cfsf_dsa - -rw------- 1 cer users 736 2004-03-24 02:26 .ssh/id_dsa - -rw------- 1 cer users 744 2004-03-19 03:19 .ssh/old_shsf_dsa - -rw------- 1 cer users 744 2004-04-24 21:41 .ssh/shsf_dsa and then I get the password prompt to the ssh session. If I try again in the same xterm, I'm asked again for the password, so it is not cached, as I assume a decent ssh agent should do. My guess is that those agents are colliding. If I exit my session and enter again, then the whole agent menagerie is broken in someother way and I'm not asked for the passphrases, and seahorse control thing claims there is another agent running - I guess some seahorse was not killed on exit. Will this work some time in the "near" future? Hint: This system was upgraded from 10.2, and more - I never install fresh. - -- Cheers, Carlos E.

[opensuse-gnome] F-Spot 0.4.1
by Ivan N. Zlatev 16 Jan '08

16 Jan '08

Hey, Some time ago, around F-Spot 0.2.x I forked the package (the OBS doesn't seem to have a concept of branching) and I have kept an up to date version in my home project[1], also linked it in G:C. I have cleaned up the spec and removed unneeded patches. Maybe some of those changes are worth going upstream (factory)? [1] https://build.opensuse.org/package/show?project=home%3Ai-nZ&package=f-spot Regards. -- Ivan N.

[opensuse-gnome] GNOME:Community package fix-list
by James Ogley 15 Jan '08

15 Jan '08

Right, Christmas is over and so I've had time to turn my attention to GNOME:Community. Sorry this has still taken a while to appear but it's quite a laborious process checking each .spec file with all their particular vagaries and foibles - I hope I've not missed anything/produced false-positives as a result. Below is a list of packages[1] that need overhauling to match the packaging guidelines[2] along with the username of their (apparent) creator (some of them are mine, I know). This mail contains packages from A-M - another will follow with N-Z. Please post your progress, especially when the package is compliant, here. If you're unsure in what way your package doesn't comply, ask me either here, off-list or in #opensuse-gnome (if hell has frozen over and I'm actually there). Please note that I've not considered not using a .changes file reason enough for inclusion in this list - I'm just going to trust people to do that as they go. Obviously if people want to be pro-active and make that change now, I'll be a happy boy.

A good idea indeed. It's already on the 11.0 ideas list: http://en.opensuse.org/GNOME/Ideas/11.0#GDM I plan to submit a version of GDM with it enabled as soon as I've defeated an X bug that's preventing me from testing it properly. -- Hans Petter -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-gnome+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-gnome+help(a)opensuse.org
