[opensuse-gnome] GNOME 3.6 first experiences
by Valerio Mariani 07 Oct '12

07 Oct '12

Dear All, I started using GNOME 3.6 from the STABLE repository. So far the experience has been very good. First of all, thanks to all the people who worked very hard creating the packages. I am running into 3 bugs. I will post each of them in a new email to generate a thread for each error report. Thank you again for your hard work Valerio -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-gnome+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-gnome+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-gnome] GNOME 3.6 entered GNOME:Factory
by Dimstar / Dominique Leuenberger 06 Oct '12

06 Oct '12

Hi GNOMEs! I know you are all eagerly awaiting it! * AND IT JUST HAPPENED * GNOME 3.6 (at least what has been released so far; official release date is tomorrow, so there can still some more packages appear) has been submitted and accepted into GNOME:Factory. * FACTORY USERS * GNOME:Factory, as you all know, is the staging project where all packages are being tested against each other and, once deemed working, be forwarded to openSUSE:Factory, to be included into our next release of openSUSE. GNOME:Factory is NOT compatible to 12.2 (due to dependencies). * BUT * Don't be afraid just yet: All this great work has also been submitted and accepted into a new repository GNOME:STABLE:3.6 (which, at this moment, is not published; we will be doing at least a few integration tests on 12.2 before crashing _your_ machine(s).) If all goes well and may the OBS be with us (giving us the build power we need), this should not take too long. Once all this is ready, we'll let you know here again! * BUT BUT * _YOU_ are really brave and don't mind crashing your machine... should this happen, you are a) capable of extracting log files (even if NO gui comes up b) formulate readable bug reports c) FIX the bug :) then there is even a repository for 12.2 published (actually, it is GNOME:STABLE:3.6 published in a different namespace). So if you feel adventerous and comply to at least 2 of the 3 points above (:)), then you are allowed to use the repository home:dimstar:broken on your machine and get up to GNOME 3.6 (don't do this just now: the repository is in a full rebuild due to the checkins!) * WHAT MORE * What? you want even MORE??? Well, formulate your needs, and we'll find a way to make you work on them :) After all, this is a community effort! We need YOU to make this all possible. Hope you're having a lot of fun! The openSUSE GNOME Team * THE END * -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-gnome+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-gnome+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-gnome] extensions.gnome.org cannot update or remove extensions
by Adam Tauno Williams 04 Oct '12

04 Oct '12

I installed Gnome 3.6 on my openSUSE 12.2 x86_64 system according to http://dominique.leuenberger.net/blog/2012/09/gnome-3-6-for-opensuse-12-2/ Anyone else having issues with extensions.gnome.org? Clicking upgrade or remove under installed extensions page just doesn't do anything. In either Firefox or Epiphany. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-gnome+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-gnome+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-gnome] bye bye home:dimstar:broken
by Dominique Leuenberger a.k.a DimStar 02 Oct '12

02 Oct '12

Hi GNOMEs! Several of you have bravely volunteered to add home:dimstar:broken as a repository to their systems in order to pre-test GNOME 3.6 setup before we open that gates on the more formal name GNOME:STABLE:3.6. * THANK YOU FOR THIS * But, it's time to move on and say good bye to this test repository, who's sole purpose was to allow for packages to be published while not everybody jumps on the repositories. I will remove this repository later this afternoon / evening. Should you be one of the users, please change your configuration to point to the GNOME:STABLE:3.6 repository; the packages are the same and no real change should happen to your system (zypper might still want to do some work for you though).

[opensuse-gnome] Extensions stopped working after 3.6 Update
by Sankar P 01 Oct '12

01 Oct '12

Hi, After updating to GNOME 3.6 the extensions taht I had (alternate alt+tab menu (for olden style alt+tab) and CPU temperature indicator) have stopped working. Also, the tweak tool shows an Warning icon next to the gnome-shell theme and does not give any hint as to what went wrong. Clicking on that icon also does not show anything. I cant change the gnome-shell theme too. Should I file bugs ? Thanks.

[opensuse-gnome] GNOME 3.6 Swapping Control and Capslock Keys
by Sankar P 01 Oct '12

01 Oct '12

Hi, I have had my Control and Capslock keys swapped ever since I started using Linux. Recently I updated to 3.6 on 12.2 and lost this feature. I am not able to open a new tab without straining my hand. The "Layout Options" displays a big keyboard on the screen but it seem to be of no use. I am not able to enable this feature at all. What is the way to get this back ? Thanks. Sankar -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-gnome+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-gnome+owner(a)opensuse.org
