How-to customize gnome-settings-daemon?
Hello Fedora users, I'm running F11 with OpenBox (without GNOME) as window manager. In order to bring some GNOME facilities to the OpenBox environment I run gnome-settings-daemon at startup. My problem is that gnome-settings-daemon starts gnome-screensaver. Since gnome-screensaver does not work properly under OpenBox (actually It does not activate when computer is idle) I want to disable it (and run instead the xscreensaver screensaver). The only way I've found to prevent gnome-settings-daemon to run gnome-screensaver is to change system-level configuration files in /etc/gconf: * /etc/gconf/gconf.xml.defaults/%gconf-tree.xml * /etc/gconf/schemas/apps_gnome_settings_daemon_screensaver.schemas The problem is that at every update of gnome-settings-daemon package, these files are overwritten. This is boring... :( Is there a way to change gnome-settings-daemon configurations locally, that is at user-level instead of at system-level? Thank you very much!!

FC10: Gnome/X focus broken after last update
Hi Fedora users, I run Fedora 10 x86_64 on my Dell Latitude D830. After installing the following updates: * Fedora 10 Update: gvfs-1.0.3-6.fc10, updates * Fedora 10 Update: qgis-1.0.1-1.fc10, updates * Fedora 10 Update: xorg-x11-drv-vmmouse-12.6.3-3.fc10, updates * Fedora 10 Update: libgxim-0.3.2-3.fc10, updates * Fedora 10 Update: SDL-1.2.13-7.fc10, updates * Fedora 10 Update: evolution-data-server-2.24.5-1.fc10, updates * Fedora 10 Update: linuxwacom-0.8.0.3-8.fc10, updates * Fedora 10 Update: cups-1.3.9-8.fc10, updates * Fedora 10 Update: gtkhtml3-3.24.5-1.fc10, updates * Fedora 10 Update: anthy-9100h-1.fc10, updates * Fedora 10 Update: alsa-utils-1.0.19-2.fc10, updates * Fedora 10 Update: kernel-2.6.27.19-170.2.35.fc10, updates * Fedora 10 Update: selinux-policy-3.5.13-46.fc10, updates I have problems with my graphical desktop environment. For instance, if I open an xterm I cannot digit anything inside it; but if I open another one, I can digit in the first I opened but not in the last one. Also, the focus of the window manager sometimes freeze: for instance, in FireFox clicking on a tab, to get the focus, does nothing and for making it to return to function I have to switch in another virtual desktop and then come back to the one when the FireFox is open. I can go further with other examples related to this problem but maybe someone is already able to help me. Any help is very very very appreciated. Thank you very much!

The fix: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/libgxim-0.3.2-4.fc10 Thank you Michael! Unfortunately, the problem was not solved. Initially, it seemd solved but after using firefox and switching the virtual desktops, I went into trouble: clicking a link (inside firefox) had the effect to open a new tab instead of making the action in the window (e.g. clicking on the link above or on the gmail Sign Out link, a new windown was opened) Then I wasn't able to switch to any virtual desk (I mean crtl+alt+arrow did nothing). Also, if I click on the gnome menu panel (the one with Applications, Places, System), only the label was highlighted (e.g. the Applications label became blue) but no menu was opened) Also, the gnome desktop became usable too. For instance, clicking on one icon on the desktop and successively on another one, I got two selected icons instead of only the last one. Ah...xterm was again frozen. After many tentative, the focus still return to function. So now I downgrade to libgxim 0.3.1 (the version preceding the bad one). At the moment, no problem is at the horizon ;) The bug related to 0.3.2-3 only talk about xterm but I think the problem includes many other apps (e.g., firefox, gnome-panel, gnome-desktop) Thank you very much for the help!!

FC10: keep active eth0 and DSL in Network Manager
Hi, I wonder why it seems impossible (in FC10) to simultaneously have a wired local network (eth0) and a DSL (pppoe) with Network Manager. In fact, Network Manager allows me to select only one of them at time. Until FC9, I used to use the classic network service instead of NetworkManager and it was possible to have both connections active. Where am I wrong?
