then it should work
Why is powersave not mentioned as one of the dependencies for gnome-power-manager if it's required?

this is the way i do it, but you can make your system use anything. And people do not like it if i force deps on them. g-p-m does more then just suspend/hibernate also stuff like dpms battry monitoring etc..

Blaasvis, ok I changed that. But now it still won't suspend and dmesg spits out the following:

try removing some modules, i can't really help you on this.

Suspend to {ram,disk} still is kind of tricky. Mainly on older hardware.

Blaasvis, good thinking. It was a kernel module that was causing this. I was able to find out which one and after I rmmod that kernel module, it now hibernates.

Blaasvis: You ought to add a option to powersave to remove every module possible (obviously filesystem and ide/sata driver cannot be removed) and reload them on resume, it saves a lot of problems by avoiding dodgy hardware and drivers.

As for older hardware, much older hardware would be able to use the APM suspend routines, which in many cases are a true hardware based suspend.

I have a AMD 2300+ sempron ( 1.56GHZ ) with I.0GB ram so it performs well because of the 1GB ram but I guess the processor itself is a bit obsolete hardware.
In any case, I am happy it worked.

ehm i rather have people report in on the bad modules, so i can remove them by default.

Running Gnome 2.16 her and no problems to report so far
Seems a little faster then the last release also? or that could be just me

GNOME 2.16.1 is out

Blaasvis · 2006-10-05 07:48:23

most of it is allready in testing, just a few more packages.

once · 2006-10-05 09:27:44

up-to 2.16.1
cd-rw still don't work, 2.14 can.

Blaasvis · 2006-10-05 09:43:12

well i do not have a clue what you are talking about

linfan · 2006-10-06 13:51:49

Have not had any problems with gnome 2.16 thus far on my spare p2 machine.

Installed like a charm and have the old text in ~/.xinitrc:

exec dbus-launch --exit-with-session gnome-session.

Waiting for the official release, though, before I install on my main computer.

Thanks and regards,

linfan

mouse256 · 2006-10-06 17:14:00

Working rather good here, palm sync with kpilot is also working.
The only problem I have is with gdm: I use the default themed login, but the ok, cancel and options button aren't skinned anymore, they are ugly gray buttons. Does anyone knows that problem?

hussam · 2006-10-06 23:57:18

mouse256,
edit /opt/gnome/etc/gdm/custom.conf
Under [GUI]
add
GtkTheme=Clearlooks

mouse256 · 2006-10-09 18:37:38

that option did skin te buttons, but they used to be otherwise, they didn't look like buttons before (hard to explain I know ;-) )

Another bug: I can't start korganizer from the korgac daemon. korgac places an icon in the systemtray which makes korganizer start if you click on it, but it doesn't work anymore. I don't get any errors either :-(
korganizer itself still starts...

ks1 · 2006-10-09 20:22:18

I don't know if you are reporting bugs, but it is probably best to report at
http://bugs.archlinux.org/

jinn · 2006-10-12 08:44:35

Whats the status on gnome 2.16? I am guessing there is still work to do on this since it hasnt been moved to stable yet, but is there many bugs left?

ondex · 2006-10-23 21:06:54

There is a problem with extra/mail-notification :

mail-notification: error while loading shared libraries: libgailutil.so.17: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

The correct lib is /opt/gnome/lib/libgailutil.so.18

JGC · 2006-10-23 21:53:51

mail notification broken? What do you mean?

yoburtu · 2006-10-26 14:52:30

Hello,

I have a question, when will be in current/extra gnome 2,16?.

Best regards.

ganlu · 2006-10-26 14:57:36

Yes, what's wrong with gnome 2.16.1? Can't find any clue in bugtracker, not very deeply diged though.

linfan · 2006-10-26 15:26:44

mail-notification in testing is working - mail-notification 3.0-2, but it was a bit more tricky to set up this time. Had to choose among the mailbox identification options.
