Re: [arch-general] Gnome 3, a bug?

2011-05-06 Thread Steve Holmes
Hey, I also just installed / upgraded to gnome3 and have run into some
strange problems with keyboard navigation.  First off, I cannot get
into the desktop; also I can't find a reliable way to get into the
system menu.

Keep in mind here, I'm totally blind and do not use the mouse.  I rely
strictly on use of the keyboard to navigate around the environment.
With gnome2, one can use Ctrl+Alt+d to open the desktop from anywhere
in gnome and the system menu was simply part of the main menu
structure.  Now the application and places menus are side by side but
no system menu.  Also, the key combination to focus the desktop
doesn't work.  In fact, when I use the Ctrl+Alt+Tab key combination to
cycle focus between the top and botom panels, there is no desktop
there either.  In gnome2, the desktop was also included in that
rotation.

Any ideas on how to fix this? Is this another sign of broken
functionality in gnome3?


[arch-general] File conflict between pyqt python2-qt

2011-05-06 Thread Dominik Cermak
Hi list,

there seems to be a file conflict between the two packages pyqt and
python2-qt

python2-qt is flagged out of date, so will this be solved once the
package is updated or is this a bug?

Greetings Dominik

Its a bug and has already been reported, probably numerous times.

Sorry, didn't search the bug tracker.

 I have browsed through all High and Medium severity bugreports and
 categorized some of them here:
 https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/User:Fijam .

 'Candidates for closing' are divided into two categories: strong and
 weak. Strong candidates have not been replied to in over 4 months
 (with some bugs seeing no activity for over a year) with the last
 comment asking for more information or confirmation whether the bug
 still persists. I have not yet started issuing closure requests but
 will do so in two weeks if noone replies to those reports. Weak
 candidates have not been replied to in less than four months, the
 resolution of the bug was unclear or the original submitter found
 another solution and failed to provide any more information. I will
 wait for another month before issuing closure requests. Note: jelle
 van der waa (jelly) asked for confirmation on many of those bugs and
 deserves all the praise.

 I have also identified some bugs where more input or a confirmation of
 a fix is needed and asked for it. Will try to do initial triaging on
 those bugs or mark them as candidates for closing if the submitter
 fails to respond.

 There was also a couple of bug reports that seemed to be going
 nowhere. There was either a failure in communication, unresolved
 argument, a patch with no feedback from the developers or a request to
 split a bug into two or more specific reports. These should probably
 be reviewed again.

 There are still Low and Very Low severity bugs to go through, so
 perhaps some other user wants to pick up where I left :)

 Thanks for doing this. You could have used the already set up
 https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Bug_Day_TODO page though instead of
 your user page.
 That might need a bit of cleaning up but if you're willing to transfer
 properly the ones on your page there i will help with this if you lack
 the time to invest doing the clean up yourself.

 
 Greg

 I have seen this page but it is a bit of a mess. I will clean it up
 and merge both lists during the weekend, possibly adding a category
 'candidates for removal' based on my own criteria if that's OK.

 JM

 I have been trying to get the bugtracker a bit cleaned up, there are a lot
 of kernel related bugs which are reported with a version  2.6.35.
 Most of these bugs are 'waiting on response' and I'd say they should be
 closed.

I have updated the list at
https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Bug_Day_TODO. It would be great
if someone wanted to browse through Low and Very Low severity bugs in
Arch Linux and Community Packages as I have only browsed through High
and Medium.

Cheers,
JM

[arch-general] Need for debug - can do i do?

2011-05-06 Thread rafael ff1
HI there!

I'm trying to update PCSX2 with some help of its dev team [1], but it
is crashing all the time. According to 'gdb' output, it is somehow
related to lib32-glibc, but it is omitting some information. I was
hoping to be able to activate more verbosity, which AFAIK I can get by
compiling it with some debug flags. [2]

Is it correct or there is another better way to do it ?

Thanks,

Rafael.

No, that's exactly the way to do it to make gdb happy. Get it from abs
as always and enable debug flags.
