Re: Gnome Shell 3.9.92 ?

Hi all..
I still can't get it works..

In the log I get this msg:

[FAILED] Failed to start GNOME Display Manager.
See `systemctrl status gdm.service` for details.

And this what I get from the command:

Re: Gnome Shell 3.9.92 ?

I'm guessing this is a bug with gdm and fglrx. I'm not able to start it gdm using fglrx

EDIT: Actually can't even get it to work with open source ati drivers. Works perfectly fine on Intel drivers though.

Are you using xorg-server-git from the AUR?

Re: Gnome Shell 3.9.92 ?

I'm currently writing this from gnome-shell running on wayland. I installed xwayland-git and xf86-video-intel-xwayland-git from the AUR. It works well but it is missing features for day to day usage such as copy and paste.

Just found out that there is a work around to not having to use Intel graphics like the Gnome Wayland wiki says:

Re: Gnome Shell 3.9.92 ?

Gnome 3.10 works fine on my notebook with radeon oss driver, works fine on vmware too. But when i updated arch today in my PC (with radeon hd 6670 + catalyst), programs its uses gstreamer like totem, rhythmbox and gnome-music didn't work anymore. All gstreamer and gst packages are instaled.
Someone had the same proble or knows the solution.
Totem:

 
$ totem

xnoise:

 $ xnoise

Rhythmbox opens but don't play:

 $ rhythmbox

(rhythmbox:5082): GLib-GObject-CRITICAL **: Custom constructor for class SoupServer returned NULL (which is invalid).  Unable to remove object from construction_objects list, so memory was probably just leaked.  Please use GInitable instead.

Other thing:

Gnome-shell overview starts slowly when i use the program miro and the firefox extension downthemall. That problem occurs since gnome 3.8 with catalyst. Someone has the same problem.

Solved just removing the folders gstreamer-1.0 of ~/.config and home dir
