[opensuse-gnome] GNOME main menu bugs
by Alberto Passalacqua 03 Apr '08

03 Apr '08

Hello, looking at bugzilla, I found various bugs regarding gnome-main-menu which are still open, and that would be wonderful to see solved/closed before the release of 11.0, especially those about memory leaks and loading delays. The following bugs have been already assigned: * Bug 338024 - main-menu uses a lot of cpu resources (Assignee: Federico) * Bug 194880 - Main Menu too large and can't resize when using lower monitor screen resolutions (Assignee: bnc-team-gnome) * Bug 184520 - Gnome menu locks when opening complex Excel files through shares (Assignee: bnc-team-gnome) * Bug 310710 - cropped gnome-main-menu icon and label (Assignee: Federico) * Bug 255732 - GNOME-Main-Menu: Add to Favorites Behavior Inconsistent (Assignee: bnc-team-gnome) * Bug 247906 - The buttons on the gnome-main-menu are too big. (Assignee: bnc-team-gnome) * Bug 328838 - Sorting apps in SLAB doesn't work (Assignee: bnc-team-gnome) The following are still marked as new, even though many have been assigned: * Bug 348183 - gnome-main-menu startup time > 1min + 100% CPU * Bug 343725 - gnome-main-menu - rename or remove items does not work * Bug 338515 - In main gnome menu application must don't duplicated * Bug 362974 - "Computer" on main menu seems to ignore fast clicks * Bug 343917 - Main-Menu overlaps Orca's screen magnifier * Bug 362953 - gnome-main-menu high CPU usage on opening multiple files in Nautilus * Bug 352120 - strangely big main-menu * Bug 356624 - main-menu / multi-display ... * Bug 328122 - gnome-main-menu and keyboard navigation * Bug 336735 - Slab and Intlclock always show on display :0.0 in TwinView/Non-Xinerama * Bug 187876 - Main Menu - Recent Documents list includes files that do not exist * Bug 364186 - Main menu leaks again Regards, Alberto -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-gnome+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-gnome+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-gnome] GDM 2.21.9 test packages
by Hans Petter Jansson 02 Apr '08

02 Apr '08

GDM 2.21.9 test packages are now available from my home project. Hopefully it'll get built eventually, and when it does I hope it'll go as smoothly as it did on my local pod: https://build.opensuse.org/package/show?package=gdm&project=home%3Ahpjansso… You may need an upgraded ConsoleKit too; I'm now providing one totally free of charge! https://build.opensuse.org/package/show?package=ConsoleKit&project=home%3Ah… Oh, and stay away from the glib2 I keep in that project... It'll run around the neighborhood naked setting fire to things. -- Hans Petter -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-gnome+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-gnome+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-gnome] Volunteer Needed - Torrent Apps for 11.0
by JP Rosevear 02 Apr '08

02 Apr '08

Hi all, I was wondering if there was a volunteer out there to assess the various gtk/gnome torrent apps for use in 11.0. Specifically: 1) Bittorrent-gtk 2) gnome-btdownload 3) Transmission and come up with a recommendation. -JP -- JP Rosevear <jpr(a)novell.com> Novell, Inc. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-gnome+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-gnome+help(a)opensuse.org

I think either one should work.

James failed to mention the bug he opened: https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=374775 Fixed upstream since last week. I'd wait for the 2.22.1 release, but if people think it's important enough (do people really remove the workspace switcher that often? :-)), I can submit a package with the patch.

[opensuse-gnome] Call for testers: notification-daemon change
by Vincent Untz 28 Mar '08

28 Mar '08

Hi, I've reworked the notification-daemon package so that we stop using an old unmaintained notification theme (bubble) and instead use a new theme based on the maintained standard theme with only a few changes. A test package will be available soonish at: http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/vuntz:/factory-playground/o… The two main changes are: + let the theme decide if it wants to always stack notifications (instead of having notifications placed near the notification area, -- a good test for this is clicking on a batter item in the menu of the gnome-power-manager notification icon) In previous packages, all themes always stacked notifications, which is a change compared to upstream behavior. Now people can choose the standard theme to get upstream behavior. + the new theme makes it possible to easily change the color of the stripes via the GTK+ theme. For this, you just need to match a widget in a GtkWindow with name "notification-window". I believe this should work (untested) to match the relevant widget: notification-window.GtkEventBox.GtkVBox But I could be wrong, and I'm in no way an expert in gtkrc styles ;-) The two important colors are bg[GTK_STATE_NORMAL] for the stripe in low priority notifications and bg[GTK_STATE_SELECTED] for the stripe in normal priority notifications. You can select which notification theme to use via this gconf key: /apps/notification-daemon/theme. "standard" is the upstream theme and "bubble" is the patched theme (I've kept the same name as the one we had previously for compatibility reasons). I'd love to have people test the package to tell me if there's any regression or if it fixes any known bug for them. And it'd fantastic to have someone play with a GTK+ theme to show that it's possible to change the color of the stripe this way!

[opensuse-gnome] Evolution Spam filtering
by Srinivasa Ragavan 28 Mar '08

28 Mar '08

Guys, We have done some pretty good improvements to SPAM filtering in Evolution 2.22 (*) White list support (*) Header based filtering (You can check for headers set by SpamPal or SpamAssasin or any such server side spam headers hints). It will be a lot faster, as you decide a spam without downloading the message. Currently we are having SpamAssassin as the default junk filter and I remember lot of people having issues with SA (in-terms of speed, resources it occupies, memory, processes etc). I'm proposing to make Bogofilter as the default junk filter for Evolution. Any thoughts to it? -Srini. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-gnome+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-gnome+help(a)opensuse.org
