[gnome: utilities] gnome-system-tools

In order to be able to modify the time/date in gnome 2.4, you have to have this package installed, since it doesn't totally support arch, I usually select Slackware 9 as the distro, and it configures just fine.

You can see some screenshots of this wonderful colleciton of applications at:

PKGBUILD:

# Contributor: Kritoke <typeolinux@yahoo.com>
[ "$GNOMEDIR" = "" ] && source /etc/profile.d/gnome.sh

pkgname=gnome-system-tools
pkgver=0.29.0
pkgrel=1
pkgdesc="A GNOME2 Collection of System Tools."
depends=('libgnomeui')
url="http://www.gnome.org"
source=(http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/gnome/sources/$pkgname/0.29/$pkgname-$pkgver.tar.bz2)

build() {
  cd $startdir/src/$pkgname-$pkgver
  ./configure --prefix=/opt/gnome
  make || return 1
  make DESTDIR=$startdir/pkg install
}

Re: [gnome: utilities] gnome-system-tools

Good morning to everybody.

I have a little problem after installation of this package.

I have gnome 2.6 as DM.

After installation, I cannot see my LAN network starting from Computer icon (in other words, none computer is available).
Why?

I should configure all network from  the network tool of gnome-system-tool, I suppose.
Is it correct or not?
The installation of this package has been changed my rc.conf automatically?

Thanks.
Luca.

I'll take a look at this when I get back home to my linux machine, have you tried removing it and seeing if that fixes the bug?  Gnome System Tools still has a lot of work that needs to be done before it is totally accepted by most linux distros, which is why it isn't in staging.

Re: [gnome: utilities] gnome-system-tools

Ciao Kritoke,

today I have upgraded my arch system and also gnome-system-tools.
Now I have seen that many distros have been added to the program.

Good work.
But I have some problems.
First, which are the distros more similar to arch to configure the network and other system? I suppose gentoo, but program doen't work fine.

Second, I have trouble to configure my network (only intrenet and file sharing with windows machine).
Samba works, but I have an error on the smb that is not installed according to the system-tools.
Where is the daemons smb?

Thanks.
Luca.

Re: [gnome: utilities] gnome-system-tools

Hello,

The Slackware config tends to work for me when I mess around with networking, but even that doesn't totally do it correctly, as disabling and re-enabling it doesn't restart/start the network daemon.  Gentoo config works for a lot of the other things.  The daemon for samba is samba, so you would add that into the DAEMONS=() part of /etc/rc.conf and you can load it manually by running /etc/rc.d/samba start .  I guess if someone had a lot of free time, one could hack around the files that come with gnome system tools and add an archlinux part.  I have messed around a bit with it, but not sure if I will get the time to really add complete configuration for it, as its about a dozen or so files you have to hack and slash through.
