[gentoo-user] gnome-3 extensions and portage
I have merged gnome-shell-extensions and eselect-gnome-shell-extensions. There are of course many other extensions listed in extensions.gnome.org and they are easy to (un-)install. I was just wondering if any were packaged into ebuilds beyon gnome-extra/gnome-shell-extensions. thanks, allan
[gentoo-user] gnome shell extensions installation without chrome/firefox

[gentoo-user] gnome 3 has landed
Well, at least on ~x86 and ~amd64 gnome3 is the default now. I have mixed feelings about gnome3, so I let gentoo install it on a VirtualBox VM to start with and I'll think about updating my real machines later. The new gnome-shell is the controversial piece of gnome3 and (so far) I find it counterproductive. I googled how to disable the gnome-shell and get my gnome-panel back, along with the panel applets that I refuse to give up. (The gnome- shell replaces the gnome-panel, so there is nowhere to run the old applets.) If you want to disable gnome-shell you can do it with the System Info function in System Settings. Click the Graphics icon and enable the gnome-fallback setting to disable gnome-shell. Ah, much better :)
Re: [gentoo-user] gnome shell extensions installation without chrome/firefox
Hey, you can install extensions directly into ~/.local/share/gnome-shell/extensions , gnome extensions usually have a link to github on their extension page. Just clone them and restart gnome-shell (login/logout or ALT+F2 and type restart ) Rasmus Original Message On 30 May 2017, 10:26, Raffaele Belardi wrote: I have Seamonkey and the default Gnome browser (epiphany) installed, none of which seems to be compatible with the Gnome shell extensions plugin system.

[gentoo-user] gnome-shell behavior
Pressing the super-key/windows-key and entering something via keyboard does not work anymore. It seems to crash the gnome-shell or so, it gets reloaded, but no way to start applications via keyboard right now . I rebuilt all around gnome-shell, clutter ... disabled extensions, didn't help so far.

Weird; for me it works so much better than 3.0.
Summary:
gdm-3.2.0-r1 crashes and when I revert to the 3.0 gdm, I get to the
login screen but then gnome-shell crashes. I tried to downgrade to
gnome-shell-3.0.2-r1, but that needs libgnome-menu, which is not in
portage/layman.
The crash of gdm is described in bug #385525.
The crash of gnome-shell is described in the following .xsession-errors

Are you running the updated git of gnome-overlay? I had troubles with
gnome-settings-daemon until a couple of days.
I believe I have been running the latest overlay. I do an eix-sync
every morning and /etc/eix-sync.conf contains
-C --ignore-default-opts
-C --quiet
gnome
However, I will run
layman --sync-all
Can you try to start GNOME with a clean config (no ~/.config, no
~/.local, no ~/.gconf, no ~/.gnome*).
I tried that this morning; no improvement
Also, in my case, having gnome-shell extensions installed caused me
problems when upgrading.
I do not have the extensions installed.
From the gentoo bug #385525 there is a report that disabling the
gnome-shell USE flag for gdm, permits gdm-3.2.0-r1 to run, but does not
solve the problem with gnome-shell crashing. I can confirm this
behavior and am now running gdm-3.2.0-r1 with gnome-shell disabled.
I just now did
layman --sync-all
emerge --newuse --update --with-bdeps=y world
Only libraw and (of course) portage were merged.
emerge --depclean found nothing redundant
revdep-rebuild still wants to reinstall totem-pl-parser and
gpointing-device-settings. Both fail with bugs that (I believe) are
unrelated.
In a fit of paranoia, I did another reboot at this point.
The results were the same: gdm does NOT crash, but gnome-shell DOES
Perhaps I have bad USE flags (-gnome-shell is a new change the others
are as they have been for quite a while)?

Among these, I remember that a few people claimed that fallback mode is only a temporary solution, and, sooner or later, it'll be removed.

Re: [gentoo-user] [~amd64] Some possibly (?) helpful hints re the big gnome-3.8 update
I am a gnome-3 user, who wants to continue with gnome-3. I understand now that to move to 3.8 requires I move from openRC to systemd and am trying to accomplish that now. I have so far only done the easy first steps. 0. I always back up my user files and /etc daily 1. I confirmed that my system still boots off my installation CD (just in case). 2. I added enough entries to /etc/portage/package.mask to prevent systemd being required (list at the end if others are interested). 3. Performed the kernel prerequisites from the wiki (most of which were already enabled). 4. My /run directory was already present and populated. Now I hit my first question The wiki says that upstream suggests that the /etc/mtab file should be a simlink to /proc/self/mounts. It then points out problems with and without the symlink. My current system has both files but with slightly different contents, specifically the entries for my filesystems, root (includes /usr) and several lvm2 lvs, say commit=0 0 2 in /etc/mtab but say data=ordered 0 0 in /proc/self/mounts Do you advising leaving it alone or executing ln -sf /proc/self/mounts /etc/mtab After that comes the big one emerge systemd USE=... systemd ... emerge --change-use /etc/init.d/udev restart Can the system be rebooted at this point (I realize init will still not use systemd) or must the entire conversion (including changing init) be completed before the system is bootable?

I installed Gentoo in a QEMU VM (using gnome-boxes), to see if I could reproduce the bug in a unmodified Gentoo installation (I use my systemd-only overlay). I could reproduce the bug, but I found a reasonable workaround: cat /etc/portage/package.use/no-systemd gnome-base/gdm -systemd gnome-base/gnome-session-systemd gnome-base/gnome-shell -systemd sys-auth/polkit -systemd If those four packages have systemd support disabled, then everything works as expected (the suspend/hibernate options returns, I can mount/umount USB sticks, etc.) If at least one of those packages have the systemd USE flag, then the bug appears. I updated the bug report (and I'm not really sure the bug is in polkit or gnome-shell): https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=53905 This workaround also works in my systemd-only overlay. So, if you have the systemd flag in any of those four packages, disable it and everything should work.

I had troubles with gnome-settings-daemon until a couple of days. Can you try to start GNOME with a clean config (no ~/.config, no ~/.local, no ~/.gconf, no ~/.gnome*). Just backup your current config and remove it from $HOME, or try to start GNOME with a dummy new user. Also, in my case, having gnome-shell extensions installed caused me problems when upgrading.

I have a reason for using blueman and gnome-bluetooth at the same time.
gnome-bluetooth is a part of Gnome environment which provides small set
of basic options. blueman is more advanced and makes me able to switch
device profiles or change some setting which gnome-bluetooth can not.
Is it really necessary to block one package when another installed?

So I wondered if I might have pulled some packages from there that caused my crashes. I removed the overlay and did a emerge -avuDN world , some pkgs were rebuilt, (yep, revdep-rebuild as well) after that I did a reboot but still the X-session crashed occasionally.

[gentoo-user] new gnome fails except for root
I updated to the new gnome. After battling the expat problem, I was able to get a clean emerge and an empty revdep-rebuild (with Bo's help). But gnome is broken on this system (others have reported similar problems). In my case basically all gnome apps, e.g. panel, gnucash, evolution, gnome-terminal, evince fail when a normal user logs in. With a root login, gnome-terminal fails, but panel, gnucash, evolution seem to work (didn't try evince as root). For a normal user gnome login, I use either a shell in emacs or go to a virtual terminal and start an xterm. In any case when I try to start a gnome app (e.g. gnucash), no output is produced, no window appears, but the app shows up in ps x. I would be very appreciative for any help. thanks in advance, allan gottlieb -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list

I can't confirm (never tried it) but I've been told the autounmask
option in portage will blindly unmask even live ebuilds.. which might
account for people suddenly pulling in a surprising (and potentially
problematic) amount of live ebuilds.
I haven't tried the autounmask option from portage, neither. The GNOME
overlay offers a series of files you can link to your
/etc/portage/package.{unmask,keywords,use,use.mask} directories: They
are located in
${OVERLAYDIR}/status/portage-configs/
I haven't used those either, though. I prefer to unmask/keyword
packages myself. What I do know is that using live ebuilds is
basically flipping a coin; sometimes will work great, sometimes it
will not even compile.
Right now the only live ebuilds I'm using are:
gnome-extra/libgda-
media-sound/rhythmbox-
sys-apps/gnome-disk-utility-
gnome-extra/gnome-shell-extensions-weather-
gnome-extra/gnome-shell-extensions-system-monitor-
Everything else works with the latest non-live ebuilds.
Regards.
Did you just do emerge gnome (assumging that =gnome-base/gnome-3.0 is
in package.unmask)? I'll try doing that again then, till now autounmask
was active.

[gentoo-user] [OT] gnome-shell is cool (and how to move my current user)
So I've been trying to get around a long-standing bug in gnome-panel with vertical panels and the application list. Some workarounds, patches exist that work, but still a PITA to fix up my own ebuilds to address it. I received a comment on a bug tracker that gnome-panel likely will be deprecated in favour of gnome-shell in gnome 3.0 (aka 2.32) anyway, so forget an *upstream* commit to fix this problem that's been around for years. Well, my curiosity got the best of me, so I cherry-picked some ebuilds, an eclass (and even built a piece by hand since the ebuild failed to actually install anything...) and I got gnome-shell --replace to launch. What I found was the system became so slow as to be unusable... *but* that adding a new user, so to test on a clean slate as it were, gnome-shell works just fine. Very cool. So then, what's the *best way* to (re-) set my current user to get the goodness of a brand new gnome profile, but none of the hassle of reconfiguring all my apps? ;-) I see moving my /home folder to something else, deleting me, adding me back, with new /home and my groups... then moving a few very configured apps .configs over, but I thought there *might* be a sure way that would be easier...

[gentoo-user] wayland

Re: [gentoo-user] gdm is running Xwayland, what about startx?
Ühel kenal päeval, T, 08.06.2021 kell 18:04, kirjutas Adam Carter: > I've noticed that my gdm system is running /usr/bin/Xwayland instead of > /usr/bin/Xorg, so I infer that Gentoo devs, or upstream, are preferring > it now. It isn't really running in Xwayland really, it's running natively with the Wayland protocol. Xwayland is a by-product of supporting applications that still use X11 and settings for such applications. gdm itself does not implement a GUI - it makes use of a login mode of gnome-shell for that purpose. Future versions of GNOME will be able to default to running Xwayland on-demand, so in the future you won't see Xwayland running with just gdm, as no legacy applications are needed. Right now I believe some accessibility things might need it still in theory, so it isn't yet always skipped with GDM either. GDM uses wayland when it can and all the support has been built for that with USE=wayland on a bunch of packages, including GDM itself. > Can i try Xwayland with startx? No, Xwayland isn't something that can really run without a native Wayland compositor, to my knowledge. You can read up on what Xwayland is from https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wayland_(display_server_protocol)#Compatibility_with_X and elsewhere through your favorite Internet search engine. > pstree shows the execution paths as below. Inscrutable to me and > interesting that they're so different. > > gdm: systemd -> gnome-shell -> Xwayland > startx: startx -> xinit -> X (AND in parallel) gnome-session -> gnome- > shell startx is incapable of running Wayland sessions, so it forces the legacy Xorg GNOME session, which you'd also get if you explicitly choose "GNOME on Xorg" from gdm. One big benefit of having GDM running with Wayland, even if you have to pick Xorg for your GNOME due to some legacy app not supporting screencasting portal or something along those lines, is that GDM when using Wayland is capable of shutting down the gnome-shell it uses when you aren't on GDM VT (i.e, have logged into a desktop session) and will start it back up when you go back to GDM VT (i.e, you log out of your desktop), which is not implemented for Xorg using GDM. This saves on memory usage, as you don't have a background gnome-shell kept running. Currently GDM also is incapable of starting Wayland session when it itself isn't "using" Wayland.

Is there something in the live ebuild that you need?
I can't confirm (never tried it) but I've been told the autounmask
option in portage will blindly unmask even live ebuilds.. which might
account for people suddenly pulling in a surprising (and potentially
problematic) amount of live ebuilds.
I haven't tried the autounmask option from portage, neither. The GNOME
overlay offers a series of files you can link to your
/etc/portage/package.{unmask,keywords,use,use.mask} directories: They
are located in
${OVERLAYDIR}/status/portage-configs/
I haven't used those either, though. I prefer to unmask/keyword
packages myself. What I do know is that using live ebuilds is
basically flipping a coin; sometimes will work great, sometimes it
will not even compile.
Right now the only live ebuilds I'm using are:
gnome-extra/libgda-
media-sound/rhythmbox-
sys-apps/gnome-disk-utility-
gnome-extra/gnome-shell-extensions-weather-
gnome-extra/gnome-shell-extensions-system-monitor-
Everything else works with the latest non-live ebuilds.
Regards.
Did you just do emerge gnome (assumging that =gnome-base/gnome-3.0 is
in package.unmask)? I'll try doing that again then, till now autounmask
was active.
I did emerge =gnome-base/gnome-3.2.0, and unmasked/keyworded by hand
the necessary packages. But maybe just check that the ** is not in
any file on /etc/portage/package.keyworks/* (except perhaps the ones
I'm using). If there is no ** keyworkd, no non-live ebuild should be
installed.
Oh, and also in /etc/portage/package.unmask/*, of course.
Good luck.
BTW, which overlays did you use?
I tried after reading (translated version of) german guide on the web
these - gnome, keruspe, suka, rubenqba

It may be possible to solve this problem by using package.mask to
prevent one of those packages from being selected. However, it is also
possible that conflicting dependencies exist such that they are
impossible to satisfy simultaneously. If such a conflict exists in
the dependencies of two different packages, then those packages can
not be installed simultaneously. You may want to try a larger value of
the --backtrack option, such as --backtrack=30, in order to see if
that will solve this conflict automatically.
For more information, see MASKED PACKAGES section in the emerge man
page or refer to the Gentoo Handbook.

[gentoo-user] Breakage from recent updates to gnome-3.6 on ~amd64
I use mostly the cinnamon fork of gnome-shell but I also give gnome-shell a try occasionally just to annoy myself :) The gnome updates from Jan 1-2 caused me a bit of trouble, but I'm making progress that might help some of you: First, the addition of gstreamer-1.0 is now installed along side the old gstreamer-0.10, which apparently has broken rhythmbox. At first I thought that sound support was broken completely but after a few hours of frustration I found the breakage is confined to rhythmbox and a bug report is already filed. Second, when I use gnome in fallback mode, I found that the multiload panelapplet kept closing and refused to restart. I worked around that headache by turning off background transparency in the gnome panel settings menu. Third, the cinnamon clone of the gnome multiload panel applet was also broken, but the workaround is to update the applet from the 'Get new applets' link on the cinnamon panel settings menu. The new version is ignoring its own settings, but at least it works again. (The version you want is the one by Orcus, which replaces the older one by Ebbes.) I expect all of these bugs will be fixed when more gnome packages are updated by the gentoo devs. (BTW, I've switched to cinnamon because the upstream gnome devs are soon dropping support for the fallback compatibility mode.)

BTW, which overlays did you use?
I tried after reading (translated version of) german guide on the web
these - gnome, keruspe, suka, rubenqba
I just have the gnome overlay, but I don't use layman. I just.
git clone git://git.overlays.gentoo.org/proj/gnome.git
put the resulting gnome dir in my PORTDIR_OVERLAY environment variable
in /etc/make.conf, and then
emerge -v =gnome-base/gnome-3.2.0
When I want to see if the overlay has updated, I just git pull it.
Also, I'm on amd64, not ~amd64 (i.e., I'm on stable). The GNOME stack,
udev and systemd are the only unstable packages in my system (except
for perhaps a couple of other seldom used programs).
I'm carrying my laptop around the globe, so NetworkManager has become
almost indispensable for me; I haven't touched
/etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf in months, and I can connect
to all kind of networks.

[gentoo-user] Re: gnome-control-center any way to configure without pulseaudio?

I am upgrading gnome to gnome3 and I find that at least gnome-control-center wants pulseaudio, but I hate pulseaudio and, if possible, don't want to install it at all.

I feel the same, and I've started using xfce4 instead of gnome3 because they don't require any sound daemon (yet) and the new gnome-shell won't run on my old video hardware anyway. I just scanned through the gnome-control-center code looking for clues about pulse and found no sign that pulse is voluntary. There are no config options to enable or disable pulse, so it appears that pulse is here to stay in gnome3. oldfart I doubt that one in a hundred computer users would know how to use pulse to fix sound problems even *if* pulse is the right solution.

[gentoo-user] [~amd64] Anyone survive the big gnome update from this morning (July 25)?
I'm very happy that I did the gnome update on a virtual gentoo machine instead of my real machine :) The virtual gentoo is unusable at the moment because gnome is very sick indeed. I avoided the big update on my real machine when I saw that gnome-shell (I think it was) demanded the installation of systemd on my openrc-only system. Now, I've been running systemd on the virtual gentoo machine for months with no problems, so I wasn't worried about the big update on that machine. AFAICT the systemd update has nothing to do with gnome's sickness, systemd-206 seems to be working just fine on the virtual machine. The gnome desktop, however, is completely black except for one functioning gnome main-menu applet, which lets me open an xterm for potential debugging efforts. Running nautilus from the xterm prompt produces this error: GLib-GIO_ERROR: Settings schema 'org.gnome.desktop.background' does not contain a key named 'draw-background' Trace/breakpoint trap Has anyone else tried the same update yet?

Since the errors are very similar you may check your useflags on
policykit and - if necessary remove the use-mask of systemd for
policykit.
As Hinnerk said, it could be a PolKit problem, but you said that you
had unmasked the systemd USE flag from PolKit. The new information I
see in this mail is that you have =gnome-base/gnome-session-
installed; why do you have a live version? Did you use --autounmask to
install GNOME?
I think that's the problem: gnome-session has no live version in the
tree; therefore you are installing it from the GNOME overlay. The live
version of gnome-session in the GNOME overlay doesn't use a specific
version, tag or branch to checkout, so depending on when you installed
it, it's possible you are running gnome-session-3.7.x.
I would keep gnome-session keyworded, but unmasked; that would force
the install of the 3.6.2 version. Also, if you have more live
versions, I would recommend downgrading them to the last 3.6.x
version. GNOME 3.6 is not masked in Gentoo, just keyworded.
I have
[I] gnome-base/gnome-session

[gentoo-user] Why is gnome-2.32.1-r1 requiring the gnome-3 nautilus and evince?

I can't confirm (never tried it) but I've been told the autounmask
option in portage will blindly unmask even live ebuilds.. which might
account for people suddenly pulling in a surprising (and potentially
problematic) amount of live ebuilds.
I haven't tried the autounmask option from portage, neither. The GNOME
overlay offers a series of files you can link to your
/etc/portage/package.{unmask,keywords,use,use.mask} directories: They
are located in
${OVERLAYDIR}/status/portage-configs/
I haven't used those either, though. I prefer to unmask/keyword
packages myself. What I do know is that using live ebuilds is
basically flipping a coin; sometimes will work great, sometimes it
will not even compile.
Right now the only live ebuilds I'm using are:
gnome-extra/libgda-
media-sound/rhythmbox-
sys-apps/gnome-disk-utility-
gnome-extra/gnome-shell-extensions-weather-
gnome-extra/gnome-shell-extensions-system-monitor-
Everything else works with the latest non-live ebuilds.

[gentoo-user] [gnome3 stable] Not as bad as I expected
I've been preparing for gnome3 for many months by running it in a virtualbox gentoo-guest machine. I missed a very important gnome3 feature by doing it that way :( The gnome-shell desktop has a 'gestures-based' feature, which exposes the favorites menu if you move the mouse pointer *very* quickly to the left upper corner of the screen. Who knew? Well, I didn't know until yesterday because virtualbox allows the mouse pointer to slide right off of the guest window onto my real desktop without notifying the guest machine, apparently. Anyway, the active-left-upper-corner feature saves me one annoying extra mouse-click when launching the apps I use all day long. That one extra mouse-click was a major gnome3 bug for me, but now it's just a virtual bug :) For us old gnome2 farts who don't know where to begin with gnome3, I'd suggest installing two gnome-shell extensions that may save you many hours of bewilderment: First, the settings center extension, which exposes several important sub-menus that are otherwise nearly impossible to find. Second, the system-monitor extension, which replaces the multiload gnome-panel applet that I can't live without. The gnome extension website offers several 'system-monitor' applets, but the one I'm now using is the one written by 'darkxst'. So happy :) I strongly suggest emerging the 'alacarte' and 'gnome-tweak-tool' packages from gnome-extra. They are not installed by default when emerging 'gnome', but I couldn't use gnome without them. Happy to answer any gnome3 questions if I can.
