GNOME3 Staging PPA

On-screen-keyboard that bugged me before is fixed now in GDM... It gives way to mouse as it should... Nice!

gnome-shell 3.8.2 with Nautilus 3.6.3 was very stable for me, no issues at all. Now it's gnome-shell 3.8.3 with Nautilus 3.8.2 in the repos and it crashes a lot, also apport have started to freeze the whole machine for minutes while it tries to report the new crashes. A clear regression. I've tried Ricotz gnome-shell 3.9.3 with Nautilus 3.8.2 earlier and it wasn't too stable either. It's seems Nautilus 3.6.3+ is the cause of the gnome-shell crashes, and apport do the freezing ...

Anyway, I''ve started to like gnome-shell a lot, with a skinned icon set it looks and feels more "clean" than Unity. Let's hope the work with packaging accellerates some so it gets more stable and polished. Ubuntu Gnome is the word

gnome-shell 3.8.2 with Nautilus 3.6.3 Was quite the opposite for me But gnome-shell 3.8.2 with Nautilus 3.8.2
Is very nice smooth and Quick!

Well, well, I'm back at the latest: gnome3, gnome3-staging and gnome3-testing fully updated. At least I can post this, so to some extent it do work

I much prefer Nautilus 3.8.2 to 3.6.x - Tree view came back!

Hrm...

Anybody else notice that their GDM greeter panel is missing?!?!?

All I am seeing is the default user login -- no session choices (Ubuntu, Lubuntu, OpenBox, et cetera).

Think I'll switch to LightDM temporarily, and see if it's working correctly.

EDIT

Doh! n/m

Switched to LightDM and all session options were available.

Switched back to GDM, and realized you have to click on the the little gear/cog icon.

Carry on...

Something changed today with upgrade:
icons in Chromium (not in Chrome) and some of keys on on-screen kb at log-in (GDM) are funny...
No change in FF...
qt...?

Something changed today[...]

I read your post, and did an upgrade -- lots of qt5 stuff in there, but first...

I had to struggle with broken packages and conflicts, due to Lubuntu, soooo...

I removed Lubuntu and force-overwrote some packages. Everything finally upgraded.

I'll see if it survives a cold boot, now. Wish me luck. LoL!

Everything looks fine, here, zika -- GDM looks normal -- dittos for Chromium 30...

EDIT

BTW, just pulled-up Chromium 27 -- it looks fine, too...

Whoa! just upgraded to GS 3.9.4, and it broke the 'User Themes' extension...

Heh! I forgot how ugly GS was, without makeup.

[VinDSL]

UPDATE

Tried everything, in my bag o' tricks, but can't get the new 'user-themes' extension working.

Anybody else having probs with '3.9.4~git20130708.9e5079bd-0ubuntu1~13.10~ricotz0'?

Killing my xserver, here...
