[opensuse-gnome] GNOME core team
by Vincent Untz 25 Jun '09

25 Jun '09

Hi all, You might remember that we discussed a core team idea a few months ago. The idea is to open the responsabilities of the GNOME team even more to people. While we don't have a 100% concrete idea of the core team, I just want to make it known that our beloved Magnus is now part of it. Send him hugs :-) The good news is that we'll all be able to test him for a while since I'm at a conference this week and I'll only have a few days after my return before I leave again for GUADEC. So a long period to stress-test him! Isn't this cool? ;-) Cheers, Vincent -- Les gens heureux ne sont pas pressés. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-gnome+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-gnome+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-gnome] Gnome LiveCD Reloaded doesn´t display bootsplash
by meno 23 Jun '09

23 Jun '09

Hi. What could be wrong with bootsplash in Gnome LiveCD Reloaded (openSUSE-11.1-GNOME-Reloaded-LiveCD.i686-0.0.2-Build1.3). Although everything seems to be set correct, bootsplash isn´t displayed, only the boot messages. I do not know what may be the problem, why it doesn´t work. Or is it disabled on purpose? Here you are outputs menu.lst, bootsplash and mkinitrd. output menu.lst # Modified by YaST2.

[opensuse-gnome] gnome-libs, libraries explanation please
by Cristian Morales Vega 22 Jun '09

22 Jun '09

gnome-libs provides these libraries: libart_lgpl.so.2.2.0 libgnome.so.32.4.3 libgnomesupport.so.0.0.0 libgnomeui.so.32.14.1 libgnorbagtk.so.0.0.0 libgnorba.so.27.1.8 libgtkxmhtml.so.1.0.1 libzvt.so.2.3.0 bombermaze doesn't compiles with --as-needed because libgnome doesn't links against libpopt. I could fix just that, but the thing is these libraries in general don't link against other libraries they need. All of them are in /ust/lib(64) and have a soname, so they look like libraries by themself... even if the DT_NEEDED list sometimes makes me think otherwise. And since these libraries are so old... Could someone confirm me that libgnorbagtk isn't some kind of plugin for libgnorba but a library apps link to directly? And the same for the others... When patching, I should make all libraries link against all the libraries they use or there is any special case?

[opensuse-gnome] Switching to empathy as default IM client?
by Vincent Untz 22 Jun '09

22 Jun '09

Hi, I'd like to discuss using empathy as the default IM client again :-) Last time, we didn't make the switch because it was not totally ready. But lots of work has happened in the meantime and empathy has some cool new features: + VoIP that's working + geolocalisation support (not yet in G:F, need to package a few things first, but will be ready soon) + support for adium themes + desktop sharing: you'll be able to share your desktop with your empathy contacts! Limitations that were blocking this in the past were: + file transfer (implemented now) + a bit buggy (should work fine now) + (?) I'm not aware of any real downside. Opinions?

[opensuse-gnome] For 11.1 users of GNOME:Factory...
by Vincent Untz 20 Jun '09

20 Jun '09

Hey, If you use G:F on 11.1, please be careful the next time you update. GNOME:Backports was changed (packages were removed while they should not have been removed), so it's not clear if things will be working fine. I'm not sure I'll have time to take a look today, and it seems we might need to change the way it works anyway (because of a cycle), so no idea when it'll get fixed right now. For more details, see the thread at http://lists.opensuse.org/opensuse-packaging/2009-06/msg00084.html Vincent -- Les gens heureux ne sont pas pressés. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-gnome+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-gnome+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-gnome] Some new packages in GNOME:Factory
by Henne Vogelsang 19 Jun '09

19 Jun '09

Hi, you will see shortly some newly generated packages in your repository Education. Those are links to packages in openSUSE:Factory and are disabled for build. We need those to set the devel-project in openSUSE:Factory. You can indentify them in the description. This is just a heads up :) Henne -- Henne Vogelsang, openSUSE.

[opensuse-gnome] SLAB customization
by Rastislav Krupanský 18 Jun '09

18 Jun '09

Hi folks. Have you anybody tried yet GnoMenu? http://www.gtk-apps.org/content/show.php/GnoMenu+-+consolidated+menu+for+gn… link to download https://launchpad.net/gnomenu/+download One of the themes is also SLAB. This theme includes sections/buttons Favorites, Applications, Computer and Recently used. Configuration is probably based on the KDE´s Kickoff menu. After a few moments i noticed, that using the Applications section is very useful and comfortable. Work is much faster when i need to launch any aplication. I don´t have to wait till opening applications menu as is in openSUSE SLAB. And Recently used is also useful, for example when i need launch any recently used file, aplications or whatever. Is there some way to make the Gnome SLAB menu always display the Applications section (instead Favorite Applications) and Recently Used, when it's opened? My personally request is, wheter it would be possible to edit SLAB for 11.2 like this, or at least to edit Applications section. Snapshot in attachment, just to be sure. (hope you can receive attachment ;-) Thanks. -- S pozdravom / Best regards, Rasto

RE: [opensuse-gnome] Switching to empathy as default IM client?

Dominique, If using zypper from the Cli you'll need to run SuSEconfig afterwards, something the yast frontend does by default. I've been using empathy for a couple of months now without any issues so I'm all for switching. It's also the default client for Moblon, both upstream and the openSUSE/SLE variant so it makes sense.

You motivated me to test it again... so $ sudo zypper in empathy $ empathy Starts up.. first thing I see: the tray icon is just a square, gray blob... bleh. Let's try to create an account: Edit, Accounts, adding my groupwise messenger account. enabling it... waiting ... waiting... oh... did I mention waiting? No connection apparently is happening.. at least it does not do anything. Did I do anything crucial wrong? So far I have to use kopete as IM. Pidgin crashe{s,d} on incoming GW messages (did not test for a while. so this might be solved). empathy.. well, see above.

[opensuse-gnome] Network Manager 0.7.1 doesn't come back from suspend
by Stephen Shaw 16 Jun '09

Is anyone else see the new NM 0.7.1 not working after a resume? It seems to get an IP address but seems to bail at the end (wireless). Also restarting NM seems to do the same thing.
