[opensuse-gnome] python-configobj in GNOME:Apps?
by Vincent Untz 09 Aug '10

Hi, Does anybody know why we have python-configobj in GNOME:Apps? It sounds wrong, since it lives in devel:languages:python...

[opensuse-gnome] [notice] More GNOME-related python packages in G:F
by Vincent Untz 09 Aug '10

09 Aug '10

Hey, After thinking a bit about it, I've linked all the GNOME-related python packages living in Factory and developed in devel:languages:python in G:F. The reason is that it'll make it easy to check that everything is working fine if we have them all in G:F. Note that they are links to d:l:p and they have a devel project set to d:l:p, so they will not get modified in G:F. It's really just about making sure the GNOME we push from G:F to Factory won't break things there.

[opensuse-gnome] Removing beagle from factory
by Vincent Untz 07 Aug '10

07 Aug '10

Hi, This is just a heads-up: I'm removing beagle from Factory now. We've moved to tracker, and beagle is dead upstream, so the option to keep it is not really there (unless someone steps up to maintain it upstream...).

[opensuse-gnome] Evince not in More Applications
by Karl Eichwalder 07 Aug '10

07 Aug '10

I reported this issue as http://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=628318, but I think we should talk about it again :) Evince is one of the GNOME core applications (we even demo it in our GNOME Quick Start guide), and thus I think, it should appear along with all the other applications. I know you normally don't want to start it directly, (double-)clicking a PDF file is all what is needed. Or using "Open with" is also fine. But if you want to clean up the Application menu (I'm all for it!), introduce a second level (cf. MacOSX' "Utilities"). -- Karl Eichwalder R&D / Documentation SUSE LINUX Products GmbH, GF: Markus Rex, HRB 16746 (AG Nuernberg) -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-gnome+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-gnome+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-gnome] Tracker Search Tool
by Karl Eichwalder 03 Aug '10

03 Aug '10

If you use "Search" from the Computer menu, results appear in the Tracker Search Tool. Nice :) In our old Gnome Quick Start, we said: You can use the results lists to open a file, forward it via e-mail, or display it in the file manager. Simply right-click an item in the results list and select the option you want. Unfortunately, this no longer works. Is this just a bug or was this feature considered superfluous? The only things you can do, is moving the file into the "Trash", or opening it with the default application. At least, this is what takes place with a simple text file called "hallo". -- Karl Eichwalder R&D / Documentation SUSE LINUX Products GmbH, GF: Markus Rex, HRB 16746 (AG Nuernberg) -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-gnome+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-gnome+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-gnome] Compiz breaks font rendering for some applications
by Anshul Jain 02 Aug '10

02 Aug '10

Hi, I'm using 11.3 w/ GNOME 2.30 and Compiz enabled. I also use an application called LabVIEW which uses some ancient font rendering stuff (not fontconfig)...but which works using Tahoma fonts. Now, I've been merrily using it till 11.3 w/ Compiz 0.8.6 on a Lenovo SL400c w/ Intel 4500MHD. The font rendering for certain characters looks "jumbled up" under Compiz. However, the rendering is fine with native Metacity compositing and also without any compositing enabled. I've opened a bug report at :- https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=627335 and attached some screenshots of this behavior. Would appreciate some assistance :) Regards Anshul Jain -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-gnome+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-gnome+help(a)opensuse.org
