[opensuse-gnome] GNOME 3.8 Upgrade: WebDAV GVFS has issues
by Adam Tauno Williams 03 Nov '13

03 Nov '13

I upgraded my workstation [nVidia x86_64] and primary laptop [Intel-GPU x86_64] openSUSE 12.3 boxes to GNOME 3.8 as described @ <http://dominique.leuenberger.net/blog/2013/04/gnome-3-8-for-opensuse-12-3-g…> Upgrade was smooth, and both are working. On the laptop [Intel-GPU] I had to also perform the Mesa upgrade, otherwise it was hopelessly donkers (as expected from the post). zypper ar obs://home:dimstar:Mesa/standard Mesa zypper dup --from Mesa Only problem I have now is that GVFS WebDAV seems quite broken. I can view a folder in Nautilus, but attempting to right-click open some file results in an error. GVFS appears to be dropping the initial part of the path so "/dav/Projects/MyProject/Documents/myfile.txt" results in a request for "/Projects/MyProject/Documents/myfile.txt". -- Adam Tauno Williams <mailto:awilliam@whitemice.org> GPG D95ED383 Systems Administrator, Python Developer, LPI / NCLA -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-gnome+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-gnome+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-gnome] Crash when switching user with gnome 3.8
by Valerio Mariani 02 May '13

02 May '13

Dear All, after the upgrade to Gnome 3.8, in my home desktop system I started to notice a serious problem when switching users. If I log in as a user, then 'Switch User' to allow another user to login, and then switch back to the first user (either by selecting again the 'Switch User' entry in the menu, or going to the correct tty with the keyboard), I see a message saying that something went wrong, that all extensions have been turned off, and offering me to logout (I am not using any extension). I tried to diagnose the source of the problem, and it seems that GDM is crashing. I see the following messages in /var/log/messages (notice the failed asserts for xdm): 2013-04-21T02:48:22.765606+02:00 linux-3xop dbus-daemon[554]: dbus[554]: [system] Successfully activated service 'org.freedesktop.PackageKit' 2013-04-21T02:48:22.766352+02:00 linux-3xop dbus[554]: [system] Successfully activated service 'org.freedesktop.PackageKit' 2013-04-21T02:48:23.363053+02:00 linux-3xop polkitd[623]: Registered Authentication Agent for unix-session:5 (system bus name :1.144 [/usr/bin/gnome-shell], object path /org/freedesktop/PolicyKit1/AuthenticationAgent, locale en_US.UTF-8) 2013-04-21T02:48:23.503771+02:00 linux-3xop gnome-session[2003]: Entering running state 2013-04-21T02:48:24.118099+02:00 linux-3xop gnome-keyring-daemon[2000]: keyring alias directory: /home/apaterna/.local/share/keyrings 2013-04-21T02:48:24.136829+02:00 linux-3xop goa[2152]: secret_password_lookup_sync() returned NULL [goautils.c:210, goa_utils_lookup_credentials_sync()] 2013-04-21T02:48:24.137199+02:00 linux-3xop goa[2152]: /org/gnome/OnlineAccounts/Accounts/account_1366456332: Setting AttentionNeeded to TRUE because EnsureCredentials() failed with: No credentials found in the keyring (goa-error-quark, 4) [goadaemon.c:1085, ensure_credentials_cb()] 2013-04-21T02:48:25.078198+02:00 linux-3xop goa[2152]: secret_password_lookup_sync() returned NULL [goautils.c:210, goa_utils_lookup_credentials_sync()] 2013-04-21T02:48:32.871663+02:00 linux-3xop goa[2152]: last message repeated 2 times 2013-04-21T02:48:32.871618+02:00 linux-3xop gdm-password]: pam_unix(gdm-password:session): session closed for user vmariani 2013-04-21T02:48:33.085460+02:00 linux-3xop kernel: [ 358.850720] mission-control[1795]: segfault at 0 ip 00007f58bf375cb0 sp 00007fff1d63b9b8 error 4 in libglib-2.0.so.0.3600.0[7f58bf33a000+fc000] 2013-04-21T02:48:33.320474+02:00 linux-3xop xdm[555]: GLib-GObject: g_object_ref: assertion `object->ref_count > 0' failed 2013-04-21T02:48:33.320648+02:00 linux-3xop xdm[555]: GLib-GObject: g_object_unref: assertion `object->ref_count > 0' failed 2013-04-21T02:48:33.321903+02:00 linux-3xop xdm[555]: GdmDisplay: display lasted 0.000510 seconds 2013-04-21T02:48:41.666463+02:00 linux-3xop systemd-logind[532]: Removed session 4. I observed this error both when using the proprietary nvidia driver and the open source nouveau driver. I also noticed that the session for the first user opens on tty7, but the one for the second opens on tty2, not on tty8. Is this ok? I would really like to get to the bottom of the problem as user switching is essential for me on the desktop. Please let me help if I can provide more information to help with the debugging Thank you for your help Valerio -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-gnome+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-gnome+owner(a)opensuse.org

by Volker Holthaus 30 Apr '13

30 Apr '13

Hai folks, after the upgrade from Gnome 3.6.3 to Gnome 3.8 (opensuse 12.3 German Version), my evolution speaks english, althought i have everything in german configurated (evolution-dataserver-lang, gnome-shell-lang, gnome-desktop-lang). Any ideas, what i can do to bring evolution to the german language ? Thank you for your support.

[opensuse-gnome] Another bug in Gnome 3.8: Removable media preferences
by Valerio Mariani 22 Apr '13

22 Apr '13

Dear All, I would like to report another bug in Gnome 3.8. It would seem that the preferences selected in the "removable media" entry in the "details" panel of the settings center is not respected. For example, for "CD audio" I selected "Ask waht to do". I put a CD Audio in the reader and nothing happens. I can see the disk in Nautilus or open an audio player and play it, but the prompt that should ask what to do never appears. BTW, I was wondering if this is the right place to report this kind of bugs, of if I should report them on the novell bugzilla website. I am asking because I see very very low activity, here. Please don' t take this as a criticism and don't take my bug reports as complaints, I just would like to help. If some of the developers are reading this mailing list, it would be cool if they could just show that they received the bug report. Even two words, like "OK I read it!" would be great.. However, if this is not the right place or the right way to report these bugs, please point me to the right one. Thank you!!

[opensuse-gnome] Gnome 3.8 classic shell and password manager unliocking
by Valerio Mariani 22 Apr '13

22 Apr '13

Dear All, It is again me with another silly question, as I am trying to fix all the small problems that I have with 3.8 (But please do no think I am complaining. Quite the opposite, dimestar and you developers did a fantastic job with this release!!) My wife is using the classic shell and I noticed that when she logs in, gnome asks her with a modal dialog to unlock her Gnome password manager, as it was not unlocked at login. Is this normal? This does not happen for me with the normal Gnome Shell... Does anyone know if there is a way to have the password manager unlock at login ?

[opensuse-gnome] Gnome 3.8 and Eclipse
by Valerio Mariani 15 Apr '13

15 Apr '13

Dear All, there appears to be a problem in running eclipse with gnome 3.8 due to webkit incompatibilities. A lot of information can be gained from this Ubuntu bug report: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-gnome/+bug/1163501 Unfortunately I don't know enough to understand if something can be done on the system side (as opposed to the Eclipse side) to make Eclipse run correctly on OpenSUSE with GNOME 3.8. Does someone know anything more? Thank you for your help -- 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:Factory - GNOME 3.7.91 to be published
by Dominique Leuenberger a.k.a. Dimstar 11 Apr '13

11 Apr '13

Hi GNOMEs! The GNOME Team is proud to have integrated GNOME 3.7.91 by now into GNOME:Factory and all (but a few) packages are built. So, we will be 'opening the gates' later this evening, re-enabling the repository to be published and possibly breaking your installation (of course we hope this won't happen.. a good part of us are already running on those packages from our GNOME:Next staging repo). There are likely a few update - questions we did not get completely correct yet: a lot of packages change name, got split/obsoleted. If possible, report them either here on the ML or in the bug tracker (best would be one by one.. but I'm dreaming :P ). Thanks a lot! May your systems be stable.

[opensuse-gnome] GNOME 3.8 for openSUSE 12.3
by Dominique Leuenberger a.k.a. Dimstar 10 Apr '13

10 Apr '13

Hi all, As some of you certainly already know, we are working hard to push GNOME 3.8 as an addon repository to you. All should be ready and a 'test' repository is in place (for brave souls!). The gnome team conducted several tests so far and this seemed to work all just fine.... but it is limited testing. Do you want to test some more? Feel free, let us know of issues! how: (as root) zypper patch (Make sure ot be up-to-date first...) zypper ar -f http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/dimstar:/broken/openSUSE_12… GS38 zypper dup --from GS38 (preferably from a pure root tty login - you never know) That should be it! If all goes well, you should not see any odd dependency questions (if you do, please let me know.. I'd want to eliminate them as much as possible). Thanks for your tests! The more brave people tests, the higher the quality of the repository can get. Have a lot of fun! And happy GNOME 3.8-ing :) Dominique -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-gnome+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-gnome+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-gnome] Audio Starts Muted On One Workstations
by Adam Tauno Williams 09 Apr '13

09 Apr '13

I have one workstation where the sound upon login is always muted; unlike all the other devices and laptops where the audio resumes to the previous settings. On this box the volume is muted but set to a level greater than 0% in the 'applet'. The volume can be increased but the user has to remember to do this? (a) Any ideas what might be mixed up to cause that problem? (b) Where are the user's audio preferences saved? I've rooted around in dconf-editor and can't find them. openSUSE 12.3 x86_64 -- Adam Tauno Williams GPG D95ED383 Systems Administrator, Python Developer, LPI / NCLA -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-gnome+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-gnome+owner(a)opensuse.org
