[opensuse-gnome] Help!
by Nelson Marques 14 Dec '10

14 Dec '10

Hi all, I've runned amongst a situation that I can't really solve alone with a clean solution. So far I've 'brutalized' it. The package in question is 'indicator-sound', which triggers on the build a failed include. My nasty hammering is easilly spotted on the spec file and involved an hacked Makefile. I'm not sure exactly how those includes are pulled, but I believe they are generated from vala. If anyone could help patching this package would be awesome. Just remove the 'makefile' source and the offensive lines on the spec... it will pop out on the rebuild. I know everyone has tight schedules, there's no rush and no expectations.

[opensuse-gnome] Data and settings for Evolution 2.32
by jc 13 Dec '10

13 Dec '10

Where are the Evolution 2.32 data files? I started to back up the settings manually but realized the old directory (~/.evolution) is empty. Where is the data kept now?

[opensuse-gnome] Request for information
by Nelson Marques 10 Dec '10

10 Dec '10

People, I'm finishing the builds of the indicators from Canonical's Ayatana Project. So far all the dependencies and packages are not polished packaging wise and some of them I won't even make them available as they might mess up too much or are just futile (ex: indicator-network is no match for nm-applet). Since there's only 2 indicators left... I'm wondering if there is the possibility of having a sub-repository inside of GNOME (ex: GNOME:Ubuntified) or something like that to fit all this packages, including some of the packages I'm going to build from Ubuntu sources to support this functionality (ex: gwibber, empathy, metacity, etc). Or on the other hand... would be better to ask on opensuse-project for a root project ?! Any feedback is welcome. Though it's not the time yet, if anyone wants to tag along for co-maintaining this packages would be awesome, and I would love to have someone more expert than me keeping an eye on developments. ... Stage 2 starts tomorrow: polish packaging... Nelson -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-gnome+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-gnome+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-gnome] evolution-pilot
by jc 10 Dec '10

10 Dec '10

What's the status on evolution-pilot? I want to upgrade Gnome and Evolution to 2.32 from the stable repo, but the only available version of ep is 2.30. My choices are to keep evo 2.30 or deinstall ep. Jon -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-gnome+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-gnome+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-gnome] oS11.2 NetworkManager update
by Allen Benter 10 Dec '10

10 Dec '10

Hi List mates, my laptop is currently running oS 11.2, and connects quite happily to my home WPA-PSK network, but when I am at uni using WPA-EAP, it is giving me all kinds of grief (the applet doesn't appear, although it is running, so I can't see or edit the networks available). I can get it to (sort-of, only http) connect using the traditional control in YaST, but prefer the simplicity of NetworkManager. I have compiled and installed NetworkManager-0.8.2 , but under oS there are 10 packages installed for version 0.7, yet there are only 2 packages in the original source (NetworkManager and NetworkManager-applet). Searching through software.opensuse.org/search there are packages listed in GNOME:/Factory/openSUSE_11.2/i586 but when I visit this repository, it is empty. Does anybody know of a repository for NetworkManager-0.8.x for 11.2?

[opensuse-gnome] Text gone in Application Browser in 11.3 GNOME
by Ariel Nemtzov 09 Dec '10

09 Dec '10

Hello all, Basically, I went through the Software Manager and removed every package of OpenOffice.org that was left after changing to LibreOffice, and also installed Beagle (+dependencies) and Tracker with some additional packages. Then I noticed that in the Application Browser there is no text next to the icons, only the small version of the icons centered with no text. The problem is I have no idea how to restore it to the way it was. I've already deleted Beagle and Tracker and their packages to no avail. I also noticed that YaST and Control Center both look fine. It's only the Application Browser. My problem is described in full in the forums, here <http://forums.opensuse.org/english/get-help-here/applications/450438-text-g…> (including a screenshot). Any suggestions would be highly appreciated.... -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-gnome+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-gnome+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-gnome] Altering date format
by Basil Chupin 06 Dec '10

06 Dec '10

I have just installed oS 11.3, with the Gnome desktop, from the DVD. While I know how to change the time/date format for the clock/date/weather settings in the (bottom) panel to my preferred format of *d*/m/y, the date format shown in Thunderbird is still showing as *m*/d/y. This setting is usually set by using a setting associated with "locale" in other distros. However I cannot find where this date format can be changed in 11.3 (from the default m/d/y to d/m/y). Could some please suggest where this setting can be changed (to d/m/y)? BC -- Attorney: Are you qualified to give a urine sample?

[opensuse-gnome] Windows stealing focus
by jc 06 Dec '10

06 Dec '10

New windows aren't always getting the focus in my Gnome 2.30 desktop, openSUSE 11.3. They open in front of the other windows, but on a click another window moves to the front and is the active window. It's mainly Firefox stealing the focus, but it happens from time to time with other apps as well. I was having problems switching between gedit and the gconf editor this morning. Has anyone heard of this happening? Suggestions would be appreciated.

[opensuse-gnome] gnome 2.32 and gcalctool-5.32.1-1.1.i586
by Markus Nolte 06 Dec '10

06 Dec '10

Hi, I've some problems with the gnome calculator from obs://GNOME:/STABLE:/2.32/openSUSE_11.3. The result of 12,5×8,2 should be 102,5 but is 1025. Might be a translation problem, because the us "." is a "," in german. gcalctool-5.32.2-84.1.i586 from the factory repo does not have this problem. Can you upgrade gcalctool in the stable repo with the one from factory? Best regards Markus
