Re: Status of new DE agnostic menu tests
I just verfied your fix to work in GNOME 3.6, GNOME 3.6 with Frippery, Cairo-Dock, and it works fine with or without this fix in Cinnamon. The file that must be edited is /etc/xdg/menus/applications.menu On 06/11/2013 at 9:26 AM, "Len Ovens" wrote: > >On Tue, June 11, 2013 12:13 am, Kaj Ailomaa wrote: >> On Tue, Jun 11, 2013, at 08:34 AM, Len Ovens wrote: > >>> the gnomeshell menus is they merge incorrectly.

Re: Status of new DE agnostic menu tests
CORRECTION: GNOME 3.6 will show a menu if you click on the bottom icon in the overview sidebar. This menu, like Cairo-dock and frippery, mixes up the menus alphabetically.

Re: Ubuntu Studio Phone !
That may actually be a usable device in the field for radio news reporters. Assuming a good microphone or a phone having a microphone jack or even the ability to use a USB mike, that would mean a reporter has an audio recorder that can also edit audio right there in the field, and since it is also a phone can send it directly to the station. It would also be one of the only trustworthy phones out there (excluding any firmware snoopware). Audio editing of single tracks at a time or a few tracks at a time can be done all the way back to the original Pentium with Audacity, surely any smartphone can beat that level of performance On 06/11/2013 at 9:46 AM, "C.

Re: Status of new DE agnostic menu tests
GNOME 3.6 does not seem to give ANY standard menu anymore, instead giving a search box only that will then pull up menu options. I don't see any way to put US menus in that unless it was an extension that added a true menu like Frippery does. That would be hell to mantain, given the constant changes in gnome-shell.

Some menus are not meant to follow the opendesktop standard and only use the desktop files and ignore config files. KDE has some like that and of course unity and gnome shell do as well. It is only a bug when the menu uses an /etc/xdg/*/menus/config file that claims to do merges. Then the merges should be done correctly. There are at least 5 (just that I know of) other projects that rely on proper merging, it is not just our menus. -- Len Ovens www.OvenWerks.net -- Ubuntu-Studio-devel mailing list Ubuntu-Studio-devel@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-studio-devel

I'm guessing this one https://extensions.gnome.org/extension/13/applications-menu/. There are a few options when it comes to Gnome menus, but the most relevant I guess, if wanting to file bugs, especially upstream, would be the "classic mode", or "fallback mode" menu. -- Ubuntu-Studio-devel mailing list Ubuntu-Studio-devel@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-studio-devel
