Gnome 2.26 Discussion

Why empathy is not part of gnome? It is stuck in testing. Is this another gdm-related problem?
Thank you JGC for your work

I have a question off of this. I have fam in my rc.conf starting at boot. I am having a problem with gvfs. When I am connected to a server and try to edit the file in gedit it gives me an error about gvfs was unable to create a backup first then when I click save anyway it save a blank file. So it erases all the data.

Am I missing something. This use to work before. But I was having this problem in 2.24 also before I upgraded to 2.26.

Thanks

I don't know if gnome-2.26 still is quite buggy or if it is other things in testing that causes problems, so I downgraded to 2.24 and all of testing. I was having quite annoying issues with xorg and the xf86-*-* upgrades.

I downgraded too. Metacity + gnome-panel positioning bug + media keys not working.

Well, everything works fine for me. Using it on my workstation with dualscreen. Not bugs found yet.

Yeah, I think it's because seahorse on i686 is not updated for the moment http://www.archlinux.org/packages/?q=seahorse

Same here, it seems like it's xorg that eats the cpu.

Confirmed here too. For now I downgraded to gnome 2.24.

wonder · 2009-04-04 17:55:11

can you guys give the link of a report (upstream) that explain more about that "100% cpu bug"? just do something don't let thing like this.

I've no idea what might cause the CPU usage but I don't experience it with the testing repository enabled.

tobiash · 2009-04-04 18:05:01

With a turion x2, i have xorg using 50% full time.

Venator85 · 2009-04-04 18:07:30

Zenwalk team reports:

KNOWN PROBLEM: SOLVED! (Confirmed by gmg)
I've only tested these packages in my laptop, so testing has been minimal. However, with my intel graphics card, I'm getting a very nasty bug: every time I log in Gnome 2.26, my cpu hits 100% and will stay there. The offending process is X. It is possible that the xorg-server we have in current is too old for Gnome 2.26 and needs to either be patched or upgraded. I have tried the xorg packages from snapshot in current and the problem disappears. Please report if you have similar issues, it could just be only my setup. This bug (in xorg-server) might be a showstopper for Gnome 2.26 entering current.

Maybe it is time to move xorg in testing to extra?

wonder · 2009-04-04 18:12:29

@Venetor85 i've heard that it will be moved today

kalpik · 2009-04-04 18:24:47

I have the 100% cpu bug too!

kalpik · 2009-04-04 18:36:03

Well.. Just upgrading "xorg" from testing did the trick! The 100% CPU usage is gone

gborzi · 2009-04-04 18:53:40

I have the 100% CPU bug too, according to the zenwalk thread it happens with the intel video driver. As suggested there, a quick way to solve the problem is to downgrade gnome-session to 2.24.3. I downgraded (the package was still in /var/cache/pacman/pkg) and the problem is solved for now. But it's only a workaround, I hope the new x server will hit the stable repo soon.

kalpik · 2009-04-04 18:59:26

Im running Nvidia.. So its not just intel driver. And xorg from testing is running just fine

Alxe · 2009-04-04 19:14:43

I have that bug too. Mine doesn't reach 100% but goes to 0~50% all the time. For the moment, I think I'll just remove the desired-yet-not-quite-usable-by-now applet until xorg comes to extra.
Luckily, tomorrow all will be succesfully updated.

Thanks for all the hard work, devs!

Fackamato · 2009-04-04 19:44:53

I have the 100% cpu bug too (is there an official bug report somewhere?) with NVIDIA 180.44 and Gnome 2.26. I'll try to upgrade to xorg from testing now...

Slack · 2009-04-04 19:55:22

seahorse is now in extra XD
i will try again to install gnome-extra

Fackamato · 2009-04-04 19:56:03

Confirmed: new Xorg fixes the 100% cpu bug. No problems so far, seems 'stable'.

dbb · 2009-04-04 20:13:14

100% CPU (on a single core) bug here as well, using xf86-video-ati. Will try upgrading Xorg from testing.
