[opensuse-gnome] Proposed packages for Factory/10.3
Here's a list of packages currently in GNOME:Community that I'd like to propose for Factory/10.3: gaim-unstable gnome-themes-extras mail-notification ots sensors-applet Plus, one from home:Riggwelter: gimmie Also, as soon as I have time, I plan to work on splitting the plugins into sub-packages in abiword and tomboy. The G:C packages already do this so if someone else (with a working openSUSE machine unlike me) wants to do this, please feel free. The gimmie-session script from gimmie will need some serious love if it's accepted - at the moment it just starts a barebones GNOME setup (Nautilus/Metacity/settings daemon) with the Gimmie panel, so no autostart apps are respected. Thoughts? -- James Ogley, james@usr-local-bin.org http://usr-local-bin.org Help End Poverty: http://oxfam.org.uk/imin -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-gnome+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-gnome+help@opensuse.org

It looks like you should be able to add a "gimmie" session to /usr/share/gnome/default.session. (Just copy the existing "[Default]" session, and change "Default" and "gnome-panel" to "gimmie". Although I'm pretty sure it will only work right if gimmie supports session management.) Then just copy the gnome.desktop xsession to "gimmie.desktop", leaving the same Exec line, and gnome-session should pick up the session name from gdm from the environment. -- Dan -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-gnome+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-gnome+help@opensuse.org

Monster, figured there was a better way to do it - as soon as I have my laptop (or a replacement I guess) back, I'll sort it. -- James Ogley, james@usr-local-bin.org http://usr-local-bin.org Help End Poverty: http://oxfam.org.uk/imin -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-gnome+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-gnome+help@opensuse.org

Well, I've checked with Alex and gimmie does support session management through gnome-session. To do this, gnome-session will need patching (and will it therefore also need gimmie adding as a dependency?). I should have my laptop back before too much longer so I'll dig into it then - I'll put a patched gnome-session in home:Riggwelter and test it there. -- James Ogley, james@usr-local-bin.org http://usr-local-bin.org Help End Poverty: http://oxfam.org.uk/imin -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-gnome+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-gnome+help@opensuse.org
