In addition to the GNOME3 PPA and Rico's PPAs, we have a new experimental PPA (https://launchpad.net/~gnome3-team/+archive/gnome3-staging/) for raring which we are using to upload GNOME 3.7:
ppa:gnome3-team/gnome3-stagingAs Ubuntu's efforts are focused on GNOME 3.6, this PPA doesn't have the same level of quality and testing that goes into the regular GNOME3 PPA. GNOME 3.7 itself is still a work in progress.

I just uploaded gnome-control-center/gnome-settings-daemon 3.7.3 to the PPA. The most obvious regression it introduces is that external panels aren't working (they've never been officially supported by GNOME).

I've also uploaded gnome-shell 3.7.3. When I tested it I saw two major bugs: the user menu in the top right is missing, and using the keyboard to enter text in Shell dialogs (like Alt+F2, authentication prompts, unlocking the screen or the Activities Overview) doesn't work reliably. I reported both those bugs to GNOME but we've not figured out what the root cause is yet.

Unless you like broken things, you probably don't want this PPA yet. At least make sure you know how to use ppa-purge first.

On the other hand, it would help us and the GNOME developers out if you would give the PPA a try so that we can find and fix bugs before 3.8 is final. If you're interested in packaging, this is a great opportunity to get involved to help package the GNOME milestone releases.

Where do bug reports get filed? (or tagged?

As I stated here (http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=12346815&postcount=48), I would like to help out testing. :)

What would be the easiest way to get a RR-UGR installed ?

Install the daily build of the Ubuntu-Server 13.04 (http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-server/daily/current/) and then install the “ubuntu-gnome-meta” package (https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubuntu-gnome-meta) ?

Or do you recommend something else until the bug in the build script (http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=12415841&postcount=5) is sorted out ?

BTW, the Gnome3 ppa doesn't seem to have any packages for Raring at all ?

Interesting!

GS is working perfectly for me, but Unity is a total mess.

The iconset, theme, fonts, et cetera (in Unity) are all back to default(s), even though various utilities are indicating that they are using my custom settings.

I reset Unity/Compiz, and it didn't do a thing, except change the icon size to the default size (48, I think).

I tried changing the wallpaper, several times, but all I'm seeing is a solid black background.

Heh! This is great! :D

From another thread... ;)


[...] I was reading a link to a blog the other day where a theme designer was complaining that every time he modified his theme to work with Gnome 3 the next development of Gnome 3 broke the theme.

I'll go change themes, in Unity, and see if that helps.

Then, again, that's probably why my user menu is working in GS...

Well, 3 hours (in Unity) later, I'm still scratching my head.

Compiz works fine. I got bored and managed to setup a "rotating cube" without crashing the desktop, which, in itself, is rather odd.

dconf/gconf, gnome-tweak, ubuntu-tweak, et cetera reported nothing has changed in my custom settings, but Unity doesn't recognize any of them. Nor, does changing any of these settings make any difference on the desktop.

GS is working fine, so, I'll use it tonight, and tackle Unity tomorrow, after all of the Christmas festivities.

Well you'd have a new gtk (3.7.x), so that's bound to affect the light-themes/menus, ect. & possibly some indicators. Also the new g-c-c could be troublesome in an ubuntu session.

Ok, gnome-shell should be working again. I had to disable a lightdm integration patch until we figure out how to get it working correctly without breaking the user menu. I haven't experienced the "unable to enter text with the keyboard" bug in gnome-shell dialogs in a couple days.

I can confirm the Unity theming bug. The PPA *does* break some Unity design and integration so I don't think we'll push the troublesome packages to the GNOME3 PPA until those problems are fixed.

As far as menus, ect. IIRC from about a month or so ago if you were to switch to a gtk 3.7+ supported theme then for the most part a ubuntu session would be ok
Likely a very short list of such themes, then the only one I saw was the spartan adwaita

The Gnome3 Staging PPA works fine here too (with adwaita theming).
Also the old gnome-panel 3.6.2 is working (but not the session gnome classic no effects).
I am using nvidia-current (313.09) from xorg-edgers PPA.

I am trying to be a will participant but, I am not into adding extra PPA's that you already know are going to break.
But, I have had Raring running fairly flawlessly not using unity but, classic gnome.
Have Compiz, Emerald, CCSM, the cube and Cairo Dock all working great. The cube rotates in 3D and I managed to put colors on the top and bottom.
I had to use Application Switcher in CCSM to get ALT+TAB to work in gnome.
I got VinDSL's conky installed and updated to match my system (and added 13.04 to my signature). :D

Just going with the updates that come down the pipe. I had a hard time getting the thing to install as it was trying to use my USB drive
and would only install when I turned it off. But, I haven't hardly been able to get it to break for the last week or so. I get an error occasionally but, it doesn't force a reboot or anything.

Am I doing it wrong? :confused:

OK, I have two fresh mini.iso installs of Ubuntu-GNOME-Remix running and I want to see what's cooking with the new Gnome classic session (yes I know it's still in the works) so I think I'll keep one install pretty much pure Raring but I'd like to use this PPA with the other.

But I have a dumb question :redface:

Do you recommend using this PPA all by it's lonesome, or in combination with the standard Gnome3 PPA?

EDIT: I should have looked first. I see there are no Raring packages in the standard Gnome3 PPA yet.

kansasnoob
December 27th, 2012, 02:54 AM
OK, now we're cooking!

The most notable sort of borkage is that gdm takes ages to "populate" (by that I mean to display session options or anything) if I have auto-login set to "off". If auto-login is set to "on" it's not noticeable. But just forcing a downgrade of gdm alone doesn't fix it.

I see no changes to the fallback/classic sessions on this fresh mini.iso install of Ubuntu-GNOME-Remix and 'gnome-panel' is still installable after installing the PPA. And after doing so you can still boot into "classic (no effects)" so I assume that is still a work-in-progress which isn't surprising :)

I'd almost bet the new classic session either gets a new package name or maybe it'll be added to the shell-extensions package in the repos :confused:

Pretty hard to try and second guess things at this point.

GNOME 3.7.3 just got released earlier today, and includes some great new work. I won't be posting screenshots, because some of the UIs aren't final, and we'll be iterating until 3.8 is released (and it's my birthday).

Cleaning up

We've cleaned up gnome-settings-daemon plug-ins, and gnome-control-center panels, as well as removing the support code for GNOME Fallback, saving us around 10k lines of code.

gnome-control-center (now "Settings" in the UI) is faster to start, and gnome-settings-daemon require less code to write additional plug-ins.[...]





Before Thanksgiving I’ve caused some uproar and made people doubt our incurable stubbornness by first announcing the release team decision to drop fallback mode, and then that we’re going to be looking at supported extensions as a replacement. Some have been calling this ‘classic’ mode – I’m using the term ‘legacy’ here, since ‘classic’ may raise some false expectations.

Two weeks have passed since that initial announcement, so I thought it would be a good idea to give an update on what we have achieved so far.

GNOME Legacy

We’ve decided to use the gnome-shell-extensions repository as the place where we collect the extensions that will be part of this effort. If you configure with –enable-extensions=classic-mode, we will install a small set of extensions.[...]

Modern GNOME

Does all this attention on legacy mean that we no longer believe in GNOME 3 ? Of course not ! There’s plenty of great new stuff coming to GNOME 3.8.

Great info :guitar:

I have some hope for the new "classic-mode" because I've been cross-testing Cinnamon (both in Snowlinux and Mint), and pure Gnome3/gnome-shell in Ubuntu-GNOME-Remix. Gnome's Mutter WM far outperforms the Cinnamon fork - Muffin!

I think Mint has recognized that because Clem is talking about an Openbox version of Cinnamon:

https://github.com/linuxmint/Roadmap


Rethink Cinnamon 2D, fallback to a non-shadow CPU-less intensive session in software rendering mode and/or Muffin/OpenBox (whatever happens, the user should know he's not running the "real" Cinnamon, he should be told why, and he should find himself with a working WM (even a minimalistic one like OpenBox)).


But right now it's "wait and see" time :D

EDIT: This is also a good read:

http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=news_item&px=MTIzMzE


Untz recognizes that this may cause some fallout in GNOME 3.8 so he recommends those potentially negatively affected to stick with GNOME 3.6 for the time being. "There might be cases where these improvements will not be good enough in 3.8 (or with the Mesa and llvmpipe versions available at that time), resulting in a GNOME version that people might not consider acceptable in terms of performance or hardware support. Things will improve with time, obviously, and 3.10 will solve more and more issues; hence I would recommend to people hitting such issues to stay with 3.6 for a few more months."

I know I am in a little over my head but, I took the plunge and added the PPA and am currently updating.
I guess if it aint broke, break it! :tongue: The PPA page says:

This PPA will be used to test uploads before they are copied to the main GNOME 3 PPA.
If they break your system, you get to keep both halves.

Unless you like broken things, you probably don't want this PPA yet. At least make sure you know how to use ppa-purge first.

Personally, I log into Unity and endure it, as long as I can.

Then, I switch to GS, for the rest of the session. ;)

I don't expect to wash & rinse anything, unless both DEs break, at the same time...

It's just a test installation any way so I figured why not.

Oh and I do know how to use ppa purge.

I got it and rebooted and now the theme is all white and almost impossible to view.
I installed gnome-tweak-tool and tried to get it black like you pictures you posted but, could not quite get there from here.
The top and bottom panels are pretty much white with white text.

I'll play around with it again tomorrow. :D

I've been toying with GS, since it became available.

Over time, I've used various PPAs. Some PPAs were/are more stable than others.

Most recently, I've been using ricotz/testing:


https://launchpad.net/~ricotz/+archive/testing


You might want to upgrade your system with these packages (e.g. fill some of the holes) then disable it, when you're done.

Basically, my setup is a standard GS install, upgraded with packages from ricotz/testing, and gnome3-team/gnome3-staging.

To be clear, the only unsupported packages that I'm currently checking/upgrading are from gnome3-team/gnome3-staging. ;)

Fixed by disabling the Ubuntu power panel patches as the gnome-settings-daemon patch they depend on hasn't been ported to GNOME 3.7 yet.

I tried adding the ricotz/testing PPA and everything seemed to go well but upon rebooting, nothing would open: tweak tool, firefox, etc.

So I installed ppa-purge and tried to purge both PPAs but, that didn't work:


cavsfan@cavsfan-MS-7529:~$ sudo ppa-purge ppa:ricotz/testing
Updating packages lists
PPA to be removed: ricotz testing

I think I broke it. :-s Time to reinstall I guess. I'll download a newer iso.
It was probably time any way. Nothing was breaking at all. ;)

w00t! I figured out why Unity was looking janky, e.g. solid black background on the desktop and switcher!

Actually, I discovered the 'problem' while playing around in LXDE.

I wanted to see what would happen if I didn't allow PCMANFM to control the desktop, and guess what? It looked just like Unity. LoL! :D

Long-story-short, I allowed Nautilus to control the desktop in GS -- logged into Unity -- and Bingo!

Looks like grunt, with the defaults being "stickified", and all, but at least it's a start... ;)

It works nicely both from gdm and lightdm... I even seem to like it more with lightdm...
It works also nicely from .Xsession (startx) but I'm having problem finding way to start fallback from .Xsession... I'll have to investigate syntax for that today if time permits...
Many things are waiting to be discovered in this new GS...

The most amazing thing to me is the performance as compared to Mint's Muffin fork of Mutter and Ubuntu's Compiz ............. I'm at least guessing it's 90% a window manager thing. Time will tell :)

I feel that it is faster with lightdm than with gdm but I was playing with fallback so... Yesterday I've spent whole day in vanilla GS&gdm... Like it...

Well, I pretty much have it back like it was. The newer ISO gave some better apps than the one I initially used.
I forgot how much stuff you have to add to a fresh install to get it like you want it: Nvidia drivers, Compiz, CCSM,
Cairo Dock, lm-sensors (and sudo sensors-detect), conky-all, conkywx, Emerald, getting the date to display, add fonts, gnome-session-fallback,
the startup sound, and I am sure I left a few out.

Edit: Plus disabling firefox-globalmenu in Firefox, adding the desired add-ons and disabling the global menu bar (remove appmenu-gtk appmenu-gtk3 appmenu-qt). Plus installing flash and java.

At least this is the way I like my setup to be.

I think I'll give it a couple of days and add the PPA and hopefully not break it this time. ;)

I tried to load the PPA again with almost the same results. I also added the ricotz/testing PPA.

But, this time I managed to ppa-purge those and recover just like they were never added :)

With the only exception I see so far is that my Firefox settings including NoScript settings were annihilated.

It may be that I have to give it some time because at first nothing would open when clicked on.
Then slowly some things would open even firefox. Since I now know how to get out of it with a purge I will try it again and give it some time.

Did any one else require some time for thing to "kick in"?

The only problem I've noticed is that it takes several minutes for the GDM scrren to accept any input and respond. It's OK if you just use "auto-login" and never need to log out to change sessions or such.

I've thought about trying lightdm but I haven't been annoyed enough yet :D

OK, that must have been what I experienced. I'll try again and give it time.

I somewhere "chose" lightdm as I thought that was what we had to go with for Nvidia.
But, the fact that I was presented with an option of GDM or lightdm, I should have known.
I thought they dropped GDM with Lucid.

Though I would throw this out, for public consumption...

These errors/warnings started appearing about a week ago, during incremental (semi-daily) updates & upgrades -- and, the list of packages (at the bottom of the dialog) is growing like a cancer.

This staging ppa seems to have solved some issues for me. I now have in the top panel an icon that lets me switch keyboard layouts. And the system freezes that happened when closing utility and applications windows does not happen any more. Good stuff.

The system freezes on window closings is also fixed here with ppa though the ubuntu version still does so & remains almost worthless
(- having gnome-shell, (gnome-shell --replace), running in a terminal on current workspace prevented/prevents the freezes

What do you have set for GTK-Color-Scheme for the foreground? I cannot see it.
All I can see is selected_bg_color:#D3B37D
On a white background like google the font color when I type is white which is invisable to me.

looks like you get a perl issue[...]


I'll check it out later, today. I'm on the trot, right now.
I'm finally at juggernauts...

After days of tussling with this problem, which I believe to be caused by corrupt debconf perl modules, I'm now being blocked at any attempt to fix them by an unconfigured libpam0g:i386 package. LoL!

Oh, what a tangled web we weave!

I might have to swallow my pride and do a fresh install... :P

First you can probably play with ppa-purge, then:

sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh -a
(can take a while, dont stop it yourself)

I tried purging this n' that,but got a lovely warning about deleting 137 packages (or whatever). It really is a wonderful message!

You cannot simply type "Y". You actually have to type in a phrase, like "Yes, I want to go ahead and destroy my system!". LoL! :D

Here is the result of the dpkg-reconfigure command (above):

Removing that one is too scary, and probably will really break the system.

If you have deactivated all the ppas, then you get, into synaptic, a list of non genuine packages (under "status" synaptic tab selected in bottom left pane).
There, try to find the package(s) you can downgrade without having to accept the removal of other package(s).
I've often seen the case of only one downgraded package allow then to downgrade the others without trouble. Thats all the joice of that madness cross (recursive) dependencies.

There is a problem in Gnome3 Staging PPA now.

The newest gnome-desktop3_3.7.3-0ubuntu1~raring3
changed the name of the package
libgnome-desktop-3-4
to
libgnome-desktop-3-5.

A number of packages (like gnome-control-center, eog, nautilus) depend on libgnome-desktop-3-4.
So all those must be rebuilt before this installation.

Excellent idea(s)... Thanks!

I have several "half-installed" packages now. I can see these in the error dialogs (in CLI) and my system logs.

However, the "half-installed" libpam package is a deal breaker. Without a functioning libpam, I cannot install, remove, upgrade or downgrade anything else.

libpam is the linchpin. Unless I can fix it, all will be lost.

BTW, there is one libpam component in the GNOME 3 Staging PPA. That's the reason I'm bring it up in this thread.

I'm NOT declaring this component to be THE problem. Just saying... ;)

maybe you need to re-activate that ppa , to get around that libpam issue, to be able to downgrade the other package(s). I cant draw a straight howto, you have to try step by step.

This is a true conundrum -- and also the reason why I love testing. :)

The original perl problem caused upgraded packages to only be "half-installed" and/or "half-configured" (actual terms from the system logs).

This didn't cause any major problems, until a libpam upgrade was "half-configured". And, I haven't figured out a workaround yet.

The borked libpam package refuses to allow anything to be installed/removed/reinstalled/purged et cetera -- including itself. Thus, a double-whammy.

It appears to be a rather unique situation, and countless web searches have failed to produce any useful results.

The easy way out would be to simply divorce myself of the situation and do a fresh install, but where's the fun in that?!?!?

I never heard of libpam before it took a dump, and as a consequence of trying to fix it (and perl 5) I've discovered a whole new world of debug tools and methodologies that I didn't even know existed. It's a learning experience, and experience is the best teacher, or so they say. So, it's providing me with a quality education -- that's all. ;)

Anyway, I'll keep chipping away at the mighty oak.

When I've had my fill, I'll dispatch my old install with a belch, and put Humpty Dumpty back together again. In the meantime, I'm having fun!

A number of packages (like gnome-control-center, eog, nautilus) depend on libgnome-desktop-3-4.
So all those must be rebuilt before this installation.

Actually, we're not going to rebuild everything against the new version of gnome-desktop3 as that's a lot of work and is rather fragile. (Every time the regular Ubuntu repositories update an affected package, we'd have to rebuild that package in the PPA so things don't break).

I just uploaded a fix (https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-desktop3/3.6.2-0ubuntu5) for this to the regular raring repositories so run this command (in an hour or two, once it's built and published):


sudo apt-get install libgnome-desktop-3-4=3.6.2-0ubuntu5

I'm not sure that we can (cleanly) automatically fix this for those already using the GNOME3 Staging PPA as they have the 3.7.2 version of that library already installed.

Never mind. ricotz suggested that we just upload a fixed 3.7.2 version to the GNOME3 PPA (which users of the GNOME3 Staging PPA should also have enabled), which should fix this problem without the need to manually install libgnome-desktop-3-4.

I used this staging ppa and the Keyboard Layout Indicator came back...finally. However, I'm having issues with the Romanian Layouts, I've already filed a bug https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=691290 but they suspect it's Ubuntu-specific. The trouble is that the "Romanian" layout is the same with "Romanian(standard)", "Romanian(cedilla)", (Romanian(cedilla standard)" and all the other four Romanian layouts. I need "Romanian standard" back, it's a pain in the **** to use the simple "Romanian" layout (I need to write diacritics with Alt+s or Alt+t and it takes longer when writing documents). When I try to change from "Romanian" to "Romanian(standard)" gnome-shell freezes, I have to log out-log in, I can see it displayed by the Layout Indicator on the top bar (shortcut: "ru", instead of "ro2", as it should have been indexed, before the problems with the Indicator they were displayed "ro1", "ro2", etc., i.e. in previous GNOME versions), but when I press it...it's just the simple Romanian layout, no trace of Romanian Standard. Can you fix this bug once and for all, I beg you!

maybe you need to re-activate that ppa , to get around that libpam issue, to be able to downgrade the other package(s).[...]


Have you tried to reinstall critical packages by chrooting from a live-USB?
You aren't going to believe this...

I've been tied up at (real life) work, this week, and only have a few minutes of idle time here n' there to play around on the computer.

I just got home, updated my Facebook page, and decided to try yet another upgrade, before going to bed.

Guess what?!?!? The dam broke, and 100's of upgrades came flooding in -- so many, in fact, that I got a warning notification that my root partition was running out of space. It was almost as if the entire OS was re-installing itself. LoL! :D

When all was said and done, I performed a cold reboot, and was greeted with a GDM login screen on a beautiful Debian background, instead of the usual monkey vomit LightDM screen.

Alrighty then...

I'm in GS right now, and everything appears to be back to normal. Flying like the wind, it is!

I initiated an apt-get upgrade in CLI, just to make sure I wasn't dreaming.

Right,
The Gnome3 PPA build of gnome-desktop3 (3.7.2-0ubuntu1~raring3) is OK now and soon uploaded into that PPA repository.
So, after installing this packgage, it should be possible to retain the package libgnome-desktop-3-4 and still have the new libgnome-desktop-3-5 (from Gnome3 Staging PPA) installed (parallel installation).
This way other packages will not break.

Something sort of odd to me :confused:

I was just fiddling with synaptic to parse what I had installed (having a bit of trouble playing an mp4) but don't worry about that ;)

The thing is you can see from this screenshot that I do have both the GNOME3 standard PPA and staging PPA installed, but only staging shows up in "origins":

229781

Maybe it's just because there's only one package available from the standard PPA and it's being rebuilt?

But I also did this as an exercise to see if things played "hide-n-seek" like they sometimes do in Unity, and NO they don't :D

I disagree that the error is hard to reproduce. You can try yourself (if you're using the staging ppa and 13.04 raring Ubuntu) to add for instance Romanian (cedilla) or Armenian (eastern) and see what happens. It's not hard to reproduce at all. It's just difficult to fix, that's the problem. I think the developers should care more about regressive bugs like this one than about "improvements". How can one improve something when one is confronted with regressiveness? This shouldn't have been an issue in 12.10. I expect improvements from the developers, not regressiveness.

My cursor is on Gedit in the dock and you can see what it looks like.
But over all this is pretty cool! :D

Is it because of the missing Shell theme in Gnome Tweak tools?

Now "tweak" is working properly :D

Just to be clear; "tweak" was NOT working properly even if I were logged into a standard gnome session as long as the old fallback session was installed. So maybe we need to "purge" that when upgrading from gnome version 3.6* to version 3.7* :confused:

I haven't tried an actual Ubuntu install + our GNOME remix at all in Raring because I simply detest Compiz + llvmpipe.

Yes, gnome-tweak-tool 3.7.4 crashes if gnome-shell isn't running which is a regression. Any volunteers to file the bug?

As of right now, the staging PPA causes several regressions if you use Unity.
The current g-t-t (3.7.4-0ubuntu1~raring1) in a unity only install doesn't crash here at all. Does produce a number of "GError"..." but none are fatal & the tools does whatever it can do on a unity install.

I think that all was gone some time ago with gnome-terminal-3.7.0, why? - because someone thought it was a good idea

The patch to enable a translucent purple terminal by default (if you're using Ambiance or Radiance) was commented out a year ago because it no longer applied cleanly. I took a look at it tonight and got it working again for regular raring (3.6).

I also looked at doing the same for 3.7 but I noticed that the Background tab in Profile Preferences went missing. I filed a bug (https://bugzilla.gnome.org/692609) and I'll wait until that gets resolved before continuing to port the patch to 3.7.

The 'filechooser too small' bug is in GTK. We should look at backporting the fix to the staging PPA (some day GNOME developers will test their development release tarballs and make a new release when they break stuff…)

So maybe it's an Lubuntu dependency problem :confused:

I've done just enough cross-testing to be certain that this is NOT related in any way to either the GNOME3 PPA or the staging PPA.

I also looked at doing the same for 3.7 but I noticed that the Background tab in Profile Preferences went missing. I filed a bug (https://bugzilla.gnome.org/692609) and I'll wait until that gets resolved before continuing to port the patch to 3.7.

I told this Christian Persch guy already two years ago to please not remove ARGB visual from gnome-terminal.

He told me they want to simplify the dialog and the image background was problematic and caused some bugs.

The transparency went away in the same stroke even though the two things are independent.

I wrote him and he said that transparency could come back but he doesn’t see a good reason why transparency is necessary.

I wrote him to explain why I like it. Now a year later 3.7.1 comes out with transparency and ARGB visual removed. There’s no mention of this in the NEWS file and the commits in which this was removed are a confusung grab bag of unrelated changes, no good commit message and certainly not atomic.

So I wrote him why he didn’t listen to my suggestion to enable gtk_color_chooser_set_use_alpha() in the background color dialog and then to put argb visual back in.

No more replies, he doesn’t want to discuss, apparently.

FYI the FAQ is a joke. The setting makes the whole window transparent, not only the background color.

at least here on Ubuntu GNOME Remix iso install with staging ppa those windows always open very small. If re-sized, closed & re-opened go back to small size

The filechooser bug has now been fixed (thanks ricotz for packaging a newer GTK git snapshot). There's actually a new feature that came along with the bug: the filechooser popup now remembers its size! Unfortunately it remembers the very small size for those of us who were using the broken GTK this past week. After logging out and logging back in, you can either resize it to where you like or run these commands to start with the default:


gsettings reset org.gtk.Settings.FileChooser window-size
gsettings reset org.gtk.Settings.FileChooser window-position


This also fixes a bug (https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=692571) where System Settings would display off-center when run outside of GNOME Shell.

Hi Harry,

Well, there are different ways of doing it, but the fastest (and most easily reversible) way is:


gksudo gedit /usr/share/gnome-shell/js/ui/panel.js


Simply comment out line 921...


const PANEL_ITEM_IMPLEMENTATIONS = {
'activities': ActivitiesButton,
'appMenu': AppMenuButton,
//'dateMenu': imports.ui.dateMenu.DateMenuButton,
'a11y': imports.ui.status.accessibility.ATIndicator,
'volume': imports.ui.status.volume.Indicator,
'battery': imports.ui.status.power.Indicator,
'lockScreen': imports.ui.status.lockScreenMenu.Indicator,

'keyboard': imports.ui.status.keyboard.InputSourceIndicator,
'powerMenu': imports.gdm.powerMenu.PowerMenuButton,
'userMenu': imports.ui.userMenu.UserMenuButton
};

Save & Restart

That's it... ;)

This commit (http://git.gnome.org/browse/gnome-settings-daemon/commit/?id=b69b0d99fdc5319a809299146d281cfd06bf82e9) is also really stupid.

They bind the F2 key to mute the microphone, and write in the commit message they want to bind F20 for testing. But what they actually bound was F2, so now one cannot use F2 anymore.

This is fixed now.

I upgraded to the 13.04 from 12.10 yesterday, process was smooth. Then enabled the staging repo and updated/upgraded; shell, control ceter etc. were held back. So, did a distro upgrade, and was asked to remove 3/4 account plugins (aim/jabber/yahoo etc.), and no other removals.

Now when I shutdown, the screen goes blank, just like it is shutting down, but the hard disk keep working and the laptop is still powered on. Any ideas?

Also how to remove the metacity based fallback/classic session (when I remove metacity it also wants to remove gnome-shell)?

I've been having an uber-irritating problem with Nautilus "3.7.4-0ubuntu1~raring1" the past week or so.

Anyone else experiencing the problem below?!?!?

This Nautilus 3.7.4 package is from the Gnome 3 Staging PPA...


vindsl@Zuul:~$ apt-cache policy nautilus

http://vindsl.com/images/vindsl-desktop-3-feb-2013-2(650x520).png (http://vindsl.com/images/vindsl-desktop-3-feb-2013-2.png)


What I've done here is:


Opened Nautilus 3.7.4
Randomly picked a file (any file works for POC)
Right-clicked the "Properties" on .conkyrc


As you can see, the filename (.conkyrc) is highlighted, by default. This is normal.

However, if I place the mouse pointer on the highlighted name, and click it (any mouse button), Nautilus will crash and disappear.

Can someone try this, and let me know if Nautilus 3.7.4 crashes n' burns for you too, when you click the "Name" in "Basic Properties"?

Not sure if it's a bug, or something is janky with my install...

Thanks! ;)

Posted here since this is the gnome staging ppa thread and to know if anyone else here is facing the same issue.

Any of you still have metacity installed? I thought that was supposed to be removed with the 3.8. When I try to remove it, shell is also going to be removed. Shell still has a dependency on metacity?

Do you have both the Gnome3 and Gnome3 Staging PPA's installed:

https://launchpad.net/~gnome3-team/+archive/gnome3?field.series_filter=raring

https://launchpad.net/~gnome3-team/+archive/gnome3-staging

You need 'gnome-desktop3' package from the standard PPA in order for "staging" to work right.

No, I don't. But there is a gnome-desktop3 package in the staging ppa and I read somewhere that staging is now independent of gnome3 ppa.

Anyways, I will try your suggestion and will let you know the results, thanks.

Just FYI you can see what PPA's you have installed like this:


ls /etc/apt/sources.list.d


lance@lance-desktop:~$ ls /etc/apt/sources.list.d
gnome3-team-gnome3-raring.list
gnome3-team-gnome3-raring.list.save
gnome3-team-gnome3-staging-raring.list
gnome3-team-gnome3-staging-raring.list.save
ricotz-testing-raring.list


Unless you directly edited "/etc/apt/sources.list" which is now kind of frowned upon :)

Right now I'm purging "ricotz-testing-raring.list" because it's not what I want.

Just adding, I'd also NOT use Rico's Staging PPA (https://launchpad.net/~ricotz/+archive/staging?field.series_filter=raring) since it depends on:


WHILE USING THIS PPA MAKE SURE YOU ALSO ADDED THE GNOME3 PPA AND GNOME TESTING PPA!
ppa:gnome3-team/gnome3 (https://launchpad.net/~gnome3-team/+archive/gnome3)
ppa:ricotz/testing (https://launchpad.net/~ricotz/+archive/testing)

So it's wait and see :D

I suppose the two different "staging" PPA's can be confusing :confused:

Okay, my mistake. Just checked and I do not have gnome session fallback (or panel/applets...) installed. It is just the metacity that is kept back and I guess this is the case with everyone (since u r not offered to install metacity with fallback session). I don't know why (or where) there is still a dependency on metacity.

Also, the issue with shutdown must be something different then.

It is. Until a couple of pages back in this thread, I thought that everyone was talking about the ricotz staging ppa and wondered why I don't see many packages in there.
Also the ricotz ppas (testing and staging) are quite unstable. It actually broke my 12.10 install and I had to reinstall.

If you're willing to try something that might blow things up run:


sudo apt-get install ubuntu-gnome-desktop

Then just select (n) and post the full output :)

ATM I don't think you can get an actual "gnome-session" to coexist peacefully with Ubuntu's Unity :(

But performance of an actual Ubuntu session has been so flaky for me since Precise that I've almost given up on Unity ever working right again.

Do any of you get the file search working from within the shell? The search options are set and even when I do a file search from tracker and from within the nautilus I get the files I am looking for.

But if I do the shell search I don't see the files. I don't see any files at all in the shell. I see folders, pictures/documents etc., listed (though I disabled both folders - in the search settings) but not the actual files. Anyone any different?

By the way the recursive search is working again in nautilus, which is awesome but not really fast.

Since I upgraded from ubuntu-gnome, no unity here and have the latest version installed :(

ubuntu-gnome-desktop is already the newest version.


Jeremy Bicha would have to confirm this .... or call me a liar ;) .... but I don't think Ubuntu GNOME Remix has an official upgrade path as yet, at least it hasn't been thoroughly tested, so I wonder if things just got borked during the upgrade :confused:

I could be all wet though :redface:

I'd just expected an output similar to what VinDSL posted, in hopes that we could parse any missing depends or recommends.

Wonderful! So am I officially the first person on earth who upgraded ubuntu gnome? Can I have my certificate please?

Seriously, that might be the issue in here. But I can confirm that most of it went fine and smooth. The process worked as it should. The ppa got disabled, upgraded the packages (with just the ubuntu gnome packages, no unity), the new usc etc. were installed and no packages removed (I guess I removed the gnome session fallback sometime back). The new system works fine (except ofcourse shutdown and auto-lock screen).

In a way, you make sense here. Tracker still uses high cpu cycles (96-100 %) and now we have application spcific search enabled in shell. But I read it somewhere that the results in the shell from nautilus still depends on the tracker (though the search within nautilus uses a diff backend). I could very well be wrong though. But apart from that tracker is pretty much useless (in my usecase at least)

I've been having an uber-irritating problem with Nautilus "3.7.4-0ubuntu1~raring1" the past week or so.

Anyone else experiencing the problem below?!?!?

I pinned-down this problem further...

Nautilus disappears when I'm looking at the properties on a remoter server (only).

If I click on the filename of the above pic (in Atlanta) Nautilus crashes n' burns.

If I click on it locally, Nautilus works fine...

Some of the buttons are AWOL, on the panel.

Maybe they renamed something-or-another, or the paths have changed. I haven't had a chance to dig into it. But, nothing is missing that I care about.

Also, it could be theme related. The theme I'm running is pretty old -- amazing it works at all.

I got rid of the date & time button again. Evidently, the update overwrote my modded "panel.js" file. Anyway, that was my doing...

I don't see anything in dconf-editor, the only thing I've found so far is /usr/share/gnome-session/sessions/gnome-classic.session:

What truly is impressive about this version of GNOME so far is how well it performs on even low-end hardware:


VIA C7 CPU @ 1500MHz
VIA CN700/P4M800 Pro/P4M800 CE/VN800 Graphics [S3 UniChrome Pro] (rev 01)

If you are talking about the legacy/classic session, then (AFAIK) it is by design, only the hot corner works.

Does anyone happen to know where the config files reside for the new gnome-classic?

I think the main pieces are


/usr/share/gnome-shell/modes/classic.json
/usr/share/gnome-session/sessions/gnome-classic.session
/usr/share/xsessions/gnome-classic.desktop
And you can run this to switch to the classic mode without needing to log out first.

gnome-shell --mode=classic -r Just run gnome-shell -r to get back to the regular mode.



I really wished Ubuntu had used something other than Compiz.
Unity in Ubuntu 10.10 was built on mutter but performance was horrible. I'm guessing Compiz will be dumped when Ubuntu moves to the next generation display server (Wayland or whatever) but that doesn't necessarily mean that Unity will use mutter.

"center": [],
"right": ["a11y", "keyboard", "volume", "bluetooth",

Need to find a more appropriate name for the new classic "panels" so as not to be confused with gnome-panel ;)

But I see that it lists:


"static-workspaces@gnome-shell-extensions.gcampax.github.com"

So maybe I just don't understand how workspace switching works in the new shell-classic session.

Well I may be wrong blaming Compiz altogether but I could at least use Unity-2D on P4M800 graphics (or the fallback session) in Precise.

Quantal and Raring are just a no-go on that hardware, and also a horrible kludge even on this hardware which would run a standard Precise Unity session just fine:

Heh! I've always liked Synaptic...

The funny (odd) thing is, I have some Debian buds (on another forum) that think I'm crazy for using Synaptic. They're always making snarky comments about Synaptic (and me, for using it).

They wouldn't use Synaptic if you put a gun in their collective mouths, and beat them with a rubber hose. They're Aptitude snobs.

Different strokes...


Should I purge ricotz's PPAs...? Or should I march ahead bravely...? It seems faster with ricotz's upgrades (at least on this drm-next kernel)... ;)
No need to purge ricotz's PPA, IMO.

The "meat" of the matter is the Gnome3 Staging PPA. I always leave it enabled (checked) in the Synaptic repos.

I use the Gnome3/Ricotz PPAs occasionally, like salt/pepper.

Example: I just did a regular daily upgrade of all official and 3rd party repos, including Gnome3 Staging.

Then, I went back and enabled ricotz's PPA, refreshed, and *looked* at the available upgrades. I wanted to 'spice' things up a bit, but I didn't want them all.

In Synaptic, doing a "Smart Upgrade" would have removed Gnome et cetera (probably due to it wishing to install mozjs188). I didn't want to go down that path, yet.

Instead, I *looked* at what a "Default Upgrade" would accomplish, and was much happier with the packages it selected.

After doing a "Default Upgrade" of ricotz's PPA, I disabled (unchecked) it in the repos list, restarted, and everything appears to be working fine.

Anyway, I see no reason to purge ricotz's PPA. Alternately, I see no reason to have it enabled all the time either, but that's just me.

Once again, different strokes... ;)


Are you sure that you don't have the app menu extension enabled (or running GNOME Classic as has already been suggested?)Good eye!

Yes, I've had the app menu extension enabled for so long, I forgot it was an extension. LoL! :D

And, no, I'm not running Gnome Classic AFAIK. Hard to tell, when you're dealing with Frankenstein's Monster, whose features sometimes meld together in strange ways, intentionally or unintentionally.

I switched back n' forth between Gnome & Classic via CLI.

They look very similar, but the window buttons (max/min/close) switch sides in Classic mode, plus it adds a lower panel.

The left-side in the upper panel look identical, regardless of which mode I'm running.

Hrm... Just had an unusual experience!

After doing the (above) upgrades, this machine started dropping into Fallback Mode, when awaking from a screensaver blanking event.

That is, I would walk away from this machine for a few minutes (logged into GS) -- the screensaver would blank the display -- but, when I woke it up, I was in Fallback Mode, not GS.

I started to compose a post about this situation, but got distracted with updating my Facebook account. LoL!

When I finally got back to sorting it, I noticed there was a single upgrade available in Synaptic... gnome-screensaver 3.6.1-0ubuntu3. Hello?!?!?

After upgrading gnome-screensaver, I saw a post by zika (in another thread) pointing to this video: http://mirror.linux.org.au/linux.conf.au/2013/mp4/The_real_story_behind_Wayland_and_X.mp4

"Perfect test," me thinks...

I watched the video, sort of. I fell asleep several times, but every time I awoke, the video was still playing, e.g. as if Caffeine was running in the background (which it wasn't).

"Great, now the screensaver is broken!" :)

To my surprise, after the video completed, my monitor gently faded to black (screensaver blanked the display). When I moved the mouse, the panel was missing, there was no transparency in Conky, and most everything else was missing. My immediate thought was, "Okay, we're in Fallback Mode again, but... This time, everything eventually popped back up, one component at a time. And, I was still in GS.

If that wasn't spooky enough, that's basically what the video was talking about... the random way xorg-server draws windows, borders, et cetera (vs Wayland).

Anyway, unless I'm still dreaming, it looks like the new gnome-screensaver has some method of preventing your computer from falling asleep while watching videos. The jury is still out, on GS coming back up, or Fallback Mode.

Anybody else experience this?

If that wasn't spooky enough, that's basically what the video was talking about... the random way xorg-server draws windows, borders, et cetera (vs Wayland).

Anyway, unless I'm still dreaming, it looks like the new gnome-screensaver has some method of preventing your computer from falling asleep while watching videos. The jury is still out, on GS coming back up, or Fallback Mode.

Anybody else experience this?Some of MM players have switch to choose if You want it to prevent SS while You're watching a video... That might be turned on (I think that most of them has that as default) in Your case...
I had problem with waking from SS in GnomeClassic (GS) yesterday... In the meantime there was an gnome-scrensaver upgrade... So, I do not know if anything have changed with that upgrade...
It seems that LP is down (probably due to the storm) so...

The win+tab landed in shell. The alt+tab moved to the old windows based style. Now, win key is one stop shop for most functions, great!

@VinDSL, I read somewhere about the new changes that allow applications like media players to switch on the inhibit suspend. Probably that just landed.

I wonder what mechanism 'they' are using?!?!?

BTW, I was watching the video in a Chromium 26 (Canary) (http://download-chromium.appspot.com/) tab via the QuickTime 7.6.6 / Totem 3.6.3 plugin(s). I watched that (45 min.) vid twice, yesterday -- no screen blanking either time, from start to finish. SS is set to blank >= 10 min.

I just checked my X settings, before, during, and after playback (my third viewing), and couldn't see any change(s).

Status remained the same:

vindsl@Zuul:~$ xset q | grep -A1 -i dpms
DPMS (Energy Star):
Standby: 0 Suspend: 0 Off: 0
DPMS is Enabled
Monitor is On
vindsl@Zuul:~$

It's obviously not using the power management system and/or using it in some enigmatic way.

If I manually turn off the screensaver blanking (there are undoubtedly other ways, like all_things_Linux), it looks like this:

vindsl@Zuul:~$ xset s off && xset dpms force on && xset -dpms

vindsl@Zuul:~$ xset q | grep -A1 -i dpms
DPMS (Energy Star):
Standby: 0 Suspend: 0 Off: 0
DPMS is Disabled
vindsl@Zuul:~$

I'm still having issues with GS dropping into Fallback upon awakening.

And, yes, it seems 'the storm' has affected certain NOC (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Network_operations_center)s / Datacenter (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_center)s. I had to switch (repo) mirrors yesterday, because the one I normally use was throwing checksum errors on Gnome3 Staging.

Thanks, for the feedback, guys! ;)

Screensaver is working flawlessly, since I switched back to GDM.

Nautilus stopped crashing, when looking at file properties on remote servers.

Now, if 'they' can just get gnome-tweak-tool working. Looks like a python bug, to me.

Despite my past tribulations with NetworkManager, I'd like to try out the latest stable version, just released.

I'm aware neither PPA is likely to have it in the next 10 minutes, but I'm wondering what to do to get it "cleanly"? This staging PPA? Wait for it in the official GNOME3 PPA? Or will I just have to see if it's pulled into the official repos for raring?

Cole, the new NetworkManager will be uploaded to the regular raring repositories soon (I'm thinking we'll see it this week or next). The version there already is only a few weeks old and was an "unstable snapshot" leading up to NM 0.9.8.

I've been switching back n' forth between GDM & LightDM.

GDM has been working flawlessly for me. In particular, I love the screensaver display (the one that appears after x minutes of disuse). It was a large digital clock in the middle, with large, animated chevrons pointing toward it, lovely background, volume buttons in the upper panel, blah, blah, blah. And, the desktop pops up immediately, when I tap the keyboard.

LightDM is the one that's giving me fits. Items in the upper panel are ghosted out (white on white colors). The custom wallpaper usually comes up in the login display, but not before flashing the 'monkey vomit' default wallpaper. Recovering from the screensaver is a crapshoot, et cetera.

GDM login screen is a class act, these days!

LightDM looks/acts like an amateurish hack, IMO. ;)

Would appreciate if someone could enlighten me what I did wrong (packages gratuitously uninstalled, etc.)


My Empathy starts up, but has no credentials. When I click account settings in the Empathy window Gnome Control Center pops up with the icon view, but there is only Gnome’s online accounts visible, the signond based one disappeared (g-c-c version 3.7.5 from gnome3-staging PPA). How’s this supposed to work nowadays?
Evolution 3.6 from main doesn’t start up with an error message that it can’t dinf some ecal widget
When I click "Network settings" in the GS network dropdown nothing happens
When I type "network" in the GS overview it only displays .desktop file entries of apps, but nothing from g-c-c (i.e., to reach the NM panel).
With nautilus drawing the desktop, when I go into the overview, nautilus fades away, together with the desktop wallpaper, and I have a land gray while the overview is showing.

The latest evince draws in both libarchive 12 and libarchive13.

Evince 3.7.90 (the packages libevdocument3-4) depends on libarchive13.
We have libarchive12 in RR now.
That is a dependency of libgxps2, which also libevdocument3-4 depends on.

It seems we need to have libgxps2 rebuilt against libarchive13 here in order to get rid of the older ABI libarchive12.

This is of course my opinion, and it, after all, depends wheter you prefer the very latest git-versions (Gnome Testing PPA + Gnome3 Staging) or more stable point releases (only Gnome3 Staging).
However, should you choose Gnome Testing PPA, it is better to believe what Ricotz said: then both enabled.

Alright it wasn't that clear while I didn't quote the post I replied to.
The PPA descriptions should give one the needed hints what to add.

What I am saying is the if you want to use ppa:ricotz/testing you are suppose to add ppa:gnome3-team/gnome3 and ppa:gnome3-team/gnome3-staging too.
Although you can use the gnome3-team PPAs separately if you don't want to go for the git snapshots.

And yes, we are working together on the gnome3 PPAs.

So empathy can be configured using signon online accounts in the control center again.

But now it configures Evolution also, where I already have a traditionally configured Gmail POP account. So now I have a POP account and an IMAP account that I cannot delete and do not really want. And in the Online Accounts panel there is no mention of Evolution at all, only Empathy.

And, it survived a cold boot.

When GDM appeared, ONBOARD was enabled. ONBOARD popped up again on the desktop -- so, I disabled it.

The digital clock is back in the top panel -- need to go hack (get rid of) that again. Happens after every major upgrade(s).

Dropbox asked for auth. Guess I'll need to go through that, in various apps, for a while.

As "harry" said, desktop is opening outward, from a single point, in the middle of the display -- like a starburst effect from the '90s. LoL!

I'll need to tron a bunch of extensions. Some of them disappeared, after the reboot. That was to be expected -- happens on every version upgrade.

Other than those few things, it looks like everything is going to work.

I'll putz around today, cleaning up the UI, and getting it back to where I had it set. No show stoppers that I can see, so far.

If you have synaptic installed, you can see the real dependency issue from there.
Mark clutter-1.0 to be upgraded and see what is says.Of course I've investigated that. No GUI is needed:
The following packages will be upgraded:
gir1.2-clutter-1.0 libclutter-1.0-0{b}
2 packages upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.
Need to get 709 kB of archives. After unpacking 4,096 B will be used.
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
libclutter-1.0-0 : Breaks: libcogl11 but 1.12.2-0ubuntu1 is installed.
The following actions will resolve these dependencies:

Remove the following packages:
1) gir1.2-totem-1.0
2) libcogl11
3) libtotem0
4) totem
5) totem-mozilla
6) totem-plugins

Leave the following dependencies unresolved:
7) ubuntu-desktop recommends totem
8) ubuntu-desktop recommends totem-mozilla


Accept this solution? [Y/n/q/?] q
Abandoning all efforts to resolve these dependencies.
Abort.
:~$ sudo apt-get purge libcogl11
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
The following packages will be REMOVED:
gir1.2-totem-1.0* libcogl11* libtotem0* totem* totem-mozilla* totem-plugins*
0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 6 to remove and 2 not upgraded.
After this operation, 4,114 kB disk space will be freed.
Do you want to continue [Y/n]? nAs I wrote above, it seems that ricotz left dependency of totem and others still on libcogl11...
To emphasize: this is not a big deal, just annoyance when other packages need dist-upgrade... (like liquorix etc. ...)
New Totem is just being cooked for amd_64 as I write this in ppa:ricotz/staging so...
Update₁: Resolved... Thank You Ricotz...

I'm also confused about this Smart vs Default upgrade (in this edition)...
I made a few changes in my Synaptic's Preferences. One of them is:

Settings ->> Preferences ->> General ->> Making Changes ->> System Upgrade ->> Select "Always Ask" ->> Apply/OK

After that, when you Reload & Mark All Upgrades you will be given 2 choices for performing the upgrade:

Default (which is basically the same as "sudo apt-get upgrade" in CLI)
Smart Upgrade ( which is basically the same as "sudo apt-get dist-upgrade")


Personally, I look at the changes (click Apply) on both Default Upgrade & Smart Upgrade, before committing to the changes.

Most times, IMO, you are better off using the Default Upgrade, however, there are times when doing a Smart Upgrade is the better choice.

I look specifically for what's going to be removed, and what's going to be held back.

Sometimes... even many times... doing ANY upgrade (on a dev release) will appear to clean your clock.

If things look too gnarly, you're better off waiting for a day or two before doing upgrades. That's what I did, in the case above. I just hung-out for about 12 hours, before attempting a Smart Upgrade, and everything turned out fine.



Maybe wrong place to ask, what theme do you use and this monitor on the right...help me LOL. Is this from the ppa?
Yeah, probably the wrong place, but briefly...

I enjoy customizing the UI, e.g. theme et al. I've made too many changes to list them here.

Best place for getting info on doing stuff like this is in the monthly desktop showcase thread. The mods/admins stickify it to the top of "The Community Cafe" sub-forum.

The current thread is: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2111300

Current desktop screenie: http://vindsl.com/images/vindsl-desktop-23-feb-2013-1.png

The widgets, on the right-side, are a customization of an app called Conky. There is a link in my sig, if you're interested.

Okay, back to our regular programming... ;)

Here are the dependencies of the Gnome3 Staging PPA's totem.
So, totem depends on libcogl12.
But if the new clutter-1.0 breaks libcogl11, you either have to remove libcogl11 or not to upgrade clutter-1.0.
