Can anybody confirm that gnome-vfs is not releasing memory after browsing local network ?
I suppose the gnome-vfs-smb patch should take care of this ? however, it does not.

Also after i upgraded testing today when i login o gnome i get the error
gnome-panel has quit unexpectedly [restart close inform developers]
when i try to close, it pops up the same message again. Behind that message i catch aglimps of another one which says
gnome panel already running
I try
killall gnome-panel
but it pops right back.
Thanks

IBefore all this i was happily running gnome beta2 from the same repo.

Did you found the solution yet?
Removing everything from your /tmp directory you can use as a temporary solution to start gnome again (with the panel)

try removing the smb patch and recompile, see if that helps.

Trouble with gnome 2.13.92+XGL
When I'm starting vmware on a fullscreen and try to minimize it nothing happend (((

Removing the patch indeed seems to have a positive effect on the memory consumption of gnome-vfs. It is also releasing some of its memory consumption when I stop browsing the local network.

XGL won't be supported, it isn't near stable

Are gstreamer-0.10-good / bad / ugly the same as installing all individual packages like gstreamer-0.10-mad / ogg/ etc?

Most plugins should be covered within good/bad/ugly.

See the following pages:
http://gstreamer.freedesktop.org/data/d … gins/html/
http://gstreamer.freedesktop.org/data/d … gins/html/
http://gstreamer.freedesktop.org/data/d … gins/html/

The ffmpeg plugin does not belong to one of these plugin packages though.

Paul · 2006-03-06 22:57:46

Thanks! I thought so, just wan't sure why there were being broken up.

I also noticed that the 0.8 series is being installed as well, is this going to be the case once 2.14 goes into testing / current? Or will 0.10 be the only gstreamer series?

pressh · 2006-03-06 23:29:17

At least gstreamer 0.8 series will be supplied for the coming time as lot of applications are not 0.10 ready as the 0.10 series is designed different.

The standard gnome 2.14 applications will not need it though, as they will be build agains gstreamer 0.10.

It'll depend on the applications you're using if gstreamer 0.8 is needed for you.

JGC · 2006-03-06 23:37:39

All plugins will get included in one group: gstreamer0.10-plugins, just like it was with 0.8.

Currently we have issues with GConf that makes everything install quite slow (3 minutes for libgnome is a common installation time for an Athlon XP 2800+). This is caused by gconftool-2 that merges the database into one big file on every run.
This will change very soon: my plans are to merge all schemas in a package together and run gconftool-2 once over that single schemas file. Besides faster registration times (my whole gconf schemas dir registers in 8 seconds with this), it also slims down the complexity in the .install files to handle GConf schemas, as every package contains one .schemas file.

hipsis · 2006-03-07 06:18:16

I have several strange problems:
1. It's takes so much time to start up (since startx and till wallpaper apears) - ooops this questions solved by disabling Xgl
2. Key combinations doesn't working 4 example alt+F2 (but on my first startup it worked)

sputnik · 2006-03-07 09:45:48

Upgraded yesterday, everything this is working problem free.

No, i don't, give more details about it..

@Blaasvis please rebuild gnome-media package, the gnome-sound-recorder is missing, i just re-build it, and it's working fine now, i don't know why your gnome-sound-recorder has not been built

eg4matze · 2006-03-07 14:50:56

when I choose add wallpapaer, I can select an picture but it isnt in the list then

eg4matze · 2006-03-07 15:17:42

It isnt an gnome problem, with gif pictures it work. With jpeg pictures it doesnt. I try rebuilding the libjpeg

JGC · 2006-03-07 23:05:26

status update:

- Updated several GStreamer packages
- GStreamer is complete now (base, good, ugly, we don't ship bad in extra, it will go to unstable if we ship it)
- gconftool-2 patched for faster installation
- gnome-vfs upgraded to latest CVS
- gnome-vfs and libgnome modified to work with new GConf layout

About the last thing: test it by running "time pacman -U <oldpkg from cache>" and after that, running "pacman -U <newpkg from cache>". It should show a speedup of a factor 10, if not more for libgnome.

JGC when i sync repo i get this

:: glib2: local (2.10.0-1) appears to be newer than repo (current/2.8.6-1)

(do have all available 0.10 plugins as well as user being part of audio group)

Bmp works though

Blaasvis · 2006-03-08 07:45:49

- audio works fine for me
- video works mostly

audio i have been playing mp3's with rhtyhmbox 0.10 for weeks now and loving it.

Video:
- x264 doesn't work no plugin has been ported yet.
- wmv9 still doesn't work, maybe i should look into pitfdll soon.
- other .avi files work fine for me

Those moved to testing, so I removed them from gnome2.13.
