[Bug 879895] Re: skype screen sharing problem when using gnome shell in ubuntu 11.10 oneiric ocelot
Hi. Im having the same issue here. Im running Ubuntu 11.10 x64 ...installed GNOME 3. Same problem: when screensharing, full screen, all windows go away (like if I was sent to another workspace). Only background shows, no windows, no gnome, no nothing. No keyboards work, super key does nothing. I have to ask the other side to close the call so I can stop and go back to a working gnome. However, if I use screensharing with only one portion of the screen, it shows, however not without issues: 1- I cannot resize the portion shown. I think this is an issue with gnome 3. I tried screensharing as well with Team Viewer and the other couldn't see my window at all. However I can see theirs. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/879895 Title: skype screen sharing problem when using gnome shell in ubuntu 11.10 oneiric ocelot To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-shell/+bug/879895/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 879895] Re: skype screen sharing problem when using gnome shell in ubuntu 11.10 oneiric ocelot
important update 2: i figured that the problem is solved with gtk recordmydesktop, by unticking the option to outline the screen capture area. which means if there is no outlining around the desktop (red border). the panel doesn't hide. it might be the case of skype, since it draws a boarder around the screen when sharing full desktop. how can i disable that? and if it is the problem then what causes that behaviour? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/879895 Title: skype screen sharing problem when using gnome shell in ubuntu 11.10 oneiric ocelot To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-shell/+bug/879895/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
