[opensuse-gnome] DROP proposal: gsynaptics
by Dimstar / Dominique Leuenberger 28 Nov '13

28 Nov '13

Hi all, After having debugged an issue of not being able to configure TouchPads, it became apparent that some bitrot is at fault here: gsynaptics still lies around in our repos and happens to build.. but, that does not make it any usable. The daemon is configured to only fire up in a gnome session, where this used to be 'preferred long ago', but nowadays, this functionality is provided by GNOME intrnally, and it interacts directly with syndaemon (from xf86-input-synaptics). GNOME still has … [View More]

[opensuse-gnome] Make GNOME3 screensaver desktop aware
by Olaf Hering 28 Nov '13

28 Nov '13

The screen saver always wants either a mouse click+move or keyboard input to show the desktop again. Is there a way to get normal behaviour? At least in 11.4 it was possible to either just move the mouse or press CTRL or SHIFT or such keys to show the screen contents again. In control center I found no setting which would allow that again.

[opensuse-gnome] Widget packing issues in Wireshark
by Adam Tauno Williams 03 Nov '13

03 Nov '13

I'm not sure if this is a "GNOME" issue, it appears to be a Gtk issue, so I don't know if that counts. I'm seeing widget packing problems when using Wireshark, in dialogs some widgets are not expanding to fill the available area. Widget not packing correctly in the Follow TCP dialog <https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=819148> I found a very similar but relating to the packet detail dialog. <https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=813180> -- Adam Tauno Williams &… [View More]
