x86_64 packages are there already.

Alxe · 2009-03-29 18:36:21

I just installed on x64 and so far seems to be running smooth other then my automount problem, or lack there of automount. But I have that problem in gnome 2.24 so great work on the 2.26.

Thanks

Ok, got gnome-2.26 to install and succeeded in turning off gnome-keyring for mail-notification.

I don't know, but that may be fault of the fam daemon? [1]

fam is not needed at all for GNOME. Both gnome-vfs and gio use inotify. gio doesn't even support fam anymore because I don't want to pull in a fam dependency into glib2.

This means we don't need gamin either?

yes that is correct. Gamin is a fam replacement without network fs support.

Just one bug, if I will move my panel from top to bottom my applications cannot resize more than panel was before. Screenshot, because I cannot write it properly:

Firefox was maximized, then I moved my panel to bottom and resized. I maximized firefox again and nothing's changed. The same thing happening while opening other apps. After logout, and then login again everything is ok.

hi to all!
i'm an italian archlinux user!

i have a question:

can i delete "fam" from my rc.conf (daemon) ??

Sure you can, that's exactly what I did, no problem at all.
And gnome-session isn't at ver. 2.26 either. Maybe JGC has some issue with them?

Thanks for the info, but I saw gnome-vfs 2.24.1-2 still depends on fam, could you remove it?
And I think the wiki part on fam needs a modification as well.

I think it is because of old GDM =p

I do not quite follow what you are trying to say, but resizing windows doesn't work as with 2.24. I have handles on my panel and if I click on the right or left handle and resize a window, it doesn't fill the screen, it acts as if the panel was there although it is moved away.

Same problem here!

P.S.: Actualy, it isn't a bug in gnome-panel, because when I change from metacity to compiz, it works.

no, i built gnome-power-manager and gnome-session myself and still use the old gdm.
g-p-m has switched to devicekit-power, which is still only in AUR, so that might be a reason why it's not yet updated. no idea why gnome-session isn't updated either though.

Kknd · 2009-03-31 12:14:33

New bug: my multimedia (email and etc) keys doesn't works until I open the gnome-keybinding-properties, then it magically starts working.

I've heard that gnome-session 2.26 is causing some bugs (100% CPU usage), and the fix is to keep the 2.24.

syms · 2009-03-31 13:29:45

finally i upgraded to 2.26 and i can say that it really rocks. it seems faster, nautilus opens folders faster than ever, gedit and gnome-terminal startup time is enhanced. though i have question about the new one volume-applet. when i scroll mousewheel up then volume reduces and when i scroll mousewheel down it becomes bigger, i dont like this inverted style, can i change it back? and how can i change volume applet compiz animation because i want fade, but i have glide animations just like in normal windows.

no i don't say it won't be upgraded. i only said that it needs other packages that aren't in extra yet so maybe that's what's delaying the upgrade. the hal compability part was removed, so g-p-m really requires devkit-power.

polslinux · 2009-03-31 21:23:59

ahhhn ok ok i've understand!
and also gnome-session need a particolar things???

polslinux · 2009-04-01 16:08:53
