Gnome 2.18.1 released on 11th April!

Not even mentioned on the Gnome website, but on the Foresight website (and the Foresight announcement on gnomedesktop.org). Looks like the Foresight guys are always first nowadays, seems it may be worth a look at the Conary package management system, which must have some advantages...

I have foresight installed on it's own partition and boot into every once in a while to play around with. My experience with canary is that it crashes a lot. When I fist installed it and did the first update all or whatever the command is (can't remember right now) conary crashed probably around 5 times before I got the update process finished. Conary also is very verbose, I mean redundantly verbose, at least I thought so. Also troves and groups seem to me to be redundant, which is partly way conary has redundant verbosity. Anyway, the small amount of time I've spent with foresight has lead me to believe is not ready yet. I wouldn't recommend it to anyone except people who don't mind helping development by submitting bug reports all day, at least on the package manager which is the responsibility of rpath not foresight by the way. Just my thoughts.

Gnome 2.6.1 released?

Judging by activity on ftp.gnome.org, gnome 2.6.1 was released . Haven't seen any official announcements yet thought. Check out the package releases on gnomedesktop.org.

No worries. The guys that maintain these packages do a WONDERFUL job of getting them out as fast as the can. Lately with the problems the community has experienced with the 2.6 upgrade, they may be a little slower in coming, but I'm sure they'll do it as best as they can.

IPad shipping date moved from 21st March to 11th April?!

Hello,
i ordered my iPad on 9th March and got the 21st March as delivery date.
Now as they registered the actual payment the delivery date was moved to 11st April.
I called the customer service and the told me that the iPad gets reserved when the payment is done, not when i order it. But there was no hint in the actual order for that.
My question is now: Can Apple just do that? Is that even legal? EVERY Shop in the Internet have to reserve the product as the order comes in. Why not Apple?
Do you know any other address than the customer service telephone where i can address complaint? Maybe someone who can really do something?
I need the iPad for my courses and already sold my iPad 2 (because i should get my iPad on 21st March -.-
Regards

i ordered my iPad on 9th March and got the 21st March as delivery date.

OK, probably a large backlog.
I called the customer service and the told me that the iPad gets reserved when the payment is done, not when i order it. But there was no hint in the actual order for that.
Probably standard practice to confirm a product to an order when payment is processed. I just ordered something this morning and did not receive confirmation of the order until the payment was processed.
My question is now: Can Apple just do that? Is that even legal? EVERY Shop in the Internet have to reserve the product as the order comes in. Why not Apple?
Of course they can do that. If you were selling something would you confirm the order before you received payment confirmation? Of course it's legal. Please cite your source for "EVERY" shop has to reserve when an order comes in. Apple has their own ordering and delivery processes.
Do you know any other address than the customer service telephone where i can address complaint? Maybe someone who can really do something?
Apple contact info is at the bottom of each page.

Counting your chickens before they hatch is never a good idea.

Mounting Hard Drives In Gnome

Hi All
I'm currently setting up a 64bit Arch Linux box for a friend of mine. He was using Ubuntu, but was not happy in them not updating Gnome when the point releases come out, so I talked him in to Arch Linux.
Anyway, I have set up Arch and Gnome and now I am faced with an issue I don't know how to resolve. He uses 2 SATA HDD's. SATA1 houses Arch (/boot, /, swap & /home), SATA 2 houses quite a few partitions. I have mounted both his music and photo's at startup with fstab, but the issue I am facing is that his other partitions I can't mount on the fly in Gnome.
For example, under Places > Removable Media are all the partitions on his SATA2 drive. I double click on the drive called Kansas (because its big ) and it asks me for my password to mount, but does nothing. Every time I select a drive after that to mount, nothing happens. I thought it was FAM, but I can plug in USB thumb drives and they mount and also it mounts DVD's & CD's.
Edit: - I can manually mount them to /media/device_name but this is not an ideal workaround
Now, I have asked if he want's them mounted all the time (by putting them in fstab) but he prefers to mount and unmount on the fly.
Any ideas?
Cheers
EmyrB

[ANNOUNCE] Apache MyFaces 1.1.0 released

The Apache MyFaces team are proud to announce the production stable release of MyFaces 1.1.0.
Download it from http://myfaces.apache.org/binary.cgi
This is the first MyFaces release to be officially compatible with the
JSF 1.1 specification.
Thanks to everyone in our open source community for their hard work in
making this possible.
Furthermore this release includes 164 bug fixes and 43 new features
and improvements since the last release on 16 April.
For more information see: http://myfaces.apache.org
We hope you enjoy using MyFaces!
The MyFaces Team
Interested in all announcements and news regarding MyFaces? Please
subscribe to our brandnew "announce" mailinglist: [email protected]

hi
Thankyou for the reply , i fixed it by replacing the old myfaces.jar and myfaces-extensions.jar (from myfaces1.0.7 version) with new myfaces-all.jar (myfaces1.1.1 version), now everything works except the tree build with the old version. I see an error with org.apache.myfaces.custom.tree2.TreeModel customerTreeModel = new TreeModel(treeData); by Cannot instantiate the type TreeModel, since it is not a concrete class.
anyhow i am looking into the example provided by myfaces team, hope i will find soon...
Cheers..

Will there be a new Technical Communication Suite when CS5 will be released next month ?

Dear Forum,
will there be a new Technical Communication Suite when CS5 will be released next month (April 2010) ?
We are close ordering the Technical Communication Suite 2 - will there be a grace period to get the
new version without getting charged again ?
Greetz from Europe,
Speedtriple

I'm wondering about that too.
I've been stuck before when I bought TCS, then tried to upgrade just Captivate when v4 was released, and couldn't do it. Took months to get my money back for the CS4 download.
Seems that anyone who buys a suite gets penalized for it. Surely it's in Adobe's best interest to upgrade users who invested in the more expensive product?

Modification of Released TR??Is it possible??

Hi All,
I know this is wiered. But Is there any way we can modify any released TR. I need to recapture some roles in few TRs what contain older version of master role. So it get transported to next system will turn traffic light for it's derived role RED in authorization tab.
Arpan

Hi Julius,
Yes that is hard for my current senario. I have deleted around 5000 derived roles. These roles were having around 400 master role. The master roles remains in the system as these have other derived roles what still are in use.
Now deletion of 5000 roles happen back in January and that time we captured the roles. So automatically that time the master roles also get captured.
Now this TR has been released last week (April)
From Jan - April there are several changes in the master roles and the changes are in production system.
As a result the deletion TR of mine contain older version of master roles. So when this will be transported then not only the master will have older version also the existing derived roles will turn Red in authorization tab.
Then we will only left with option to retransport those master roles along all of their derived roles. So you can guess 400 masters with all their derived roles. Technically I still can trasport these again. But there might be some other person who is performing changes on any of these roles. So lot of dependency will come into play.
So it is really giving me hard time.
Hi Sneha,
Please let me know how to merge TRs. Please keep in mind that 1 TR is already released.

Your opinions on Gnome 2.16

I would like to know your opinions on Gnome 2.16 ; I have been using 2.14 for a whole year and I was wondering if upgrading to 2.16 will worth it , what are the main differences between these versions, aside from many bugfixes?

Well, that depends. Gnome 2.16 has improved a lot of things, take look here:
Gnome 2.15.99 Release Notes
If there is nothing among the improvements i'd want, i wouldn't update.

Gnome 2.26 Discussion

This is not another thread asking when Gnome 2.26 will be released (though I am curious and looking forward to it). This is a thread trying to figure out why even asking about it results in short replies and closed topics. We know that releasing an upgrade to Gnome is a big job. We know it will be ready when it is ready. I think we are just hoping for a possible status update. Or some idea of how we can help make it ready.
I understand that everyone working on Arch is doing it in their free time and I appreciate that. Possibly to help stop people from asking about when it is coming, you can make a page/sticky/something with just brief status updates to let us know that work is progressing.

I had a thought about this.
A group of users could start writing PKGBUILDs for the next version of GNOME earlier in the cycle. A lot of the time there won't be huge changes, and they particularly don't change much from beta to final release. We can submit them to AUR as *-devel. Then when it comes around for a dev to package them, he can see changes in dependencies etc and can check package quality (malicious commands etc), instead of having to find out why each package isn't building. Just taking a bit of the work off the devs
We could then try to get GNOME pkgs up on release day like KDE!
just a thought
Good idea. We used to have that when I wasn't a developer: it was me who made those packages.
Now I'm a dev and maintain mozilla-*, xorg and GNOME. We already have xorg-server 1.6 sitting in testing, which had more priority than getting gnome 2.25.90 in the repositories.
Sometimes I have to make choices. Getting a GNOME beta release packaged was not high priority, users can wait for a week or two.
As for pulseaudio: I won't implement it. Adding pulseaudio to gnome-applets and gnome-settings-daemon means that pulseaudio is a forced dependency. If pulse isn't running, you won't have sound or volume control. I compiled gnome-applets with the gstreamer mixer and patched gnome-settings-daemon to use gstreamer instead of pulse for volume control using multimedia keys.
gnome-applets and gnome-settings-daemon are the only two packages concerining the pulse-audio question?
I'd like to know because surely I'll de-patch them myself, as I'm using Pulseaudio for a while and I'm happy with it.
Btw I agree for this decision, in fact many people don't use already PA or they have some (big) problems with it.

Gnome 2.7 repository

Gnome 2.7 will be the playground for new things for the next Gnome 2.8 stable release. As with every big new release of a package, new bugs are introduced. Some are packaging bugs, some are upstream bugs.
To make the upgrade from 2.6 to 2.8 as comfortable as possible, we can get rid of these bugs by testing: packaging bugs while installing applications, upstream bugs while using them.
I'm providing Gnome 2.7 alpha/beta/rc builds during the Gnome 2.7/2.8 cycle, just as I did with Gnome 2.5/2.6.
Currently, Gnome 2.7 is built with these repositories in pacman.conf:
#Gnome 2.7 builds
[gnome27]
Server = ftp://schoolbak.dyndns.org/pub/archlinux/gnome27
#Gnome related packages that didn't make 2.6
[gnome25]
Server = ftp://schoolbak.dyndns.org/pub/archlinux/gnome25
#Up2date stable gnome related archlinux packages
[incoming]
Server = ftp://schoolbak.dyndns.org/pub/archlinux/incoming
These repositories are placed on top of the other ones in pacman.conf. The Gnome 2.5 repository is optional, since it contains development builds of Abiword, Gnumeric and Evolution, but I'm almost sure gnome-panel will require evolution-data-server in the next 2.7 release in my builds (evolution 2.0 should be released somewhere in July, the gnome desktop will integrate with the data stored inside evolution).
Currently the builds are very usable, since most of the code is a fork from 2.6, which is a stable base. I expect the packages to become more unstable when we advance a few version numbers, but when coming closer to a release, it will become stable again.
With the gnome 2.5/2.6 builds, most people were having problems with version numbers after 2.6 got merged into arch officially. People were using a mixed version of my repository and the official archlinux repository. This time, I will stick to versions like gnome-themes-2.8-1j1, so when that package is officially released, it will be upgraded by 2.8-1.

Did some upgrades, gnome 2.7.4 came with a shiny new MIME system.
This MIME system has some problems with file associations, I'm still working on it.
Installing desktop-file-utils and running:
update-desktop-database /opt/gnome/share/applications
update-desktop-database /usr/share/applications
would solve this problem. At least nautilus opens textfiles with gedit now
Not all packages are updated for the new freedesktop.org mime system yet. Newer versions will include updated .desktop files for this. I think KDE will also follow these standards.
Things to do: every package that registers mimetypes in .desktop files has to run update-desktop-database $prefix/share/applications in post_install, post_upgrade and post_remove.

Gnome 2.18.1 released on 11th April!
