Re: [Trisquel-users] GNOME Shell on Trisquel 8

2018-07-09 Thread cuculus
Hi, I've been using Trisquel 8 with Gnome since about a month after T8 was  
released.


I used the default 64bit setup (whatever it was, I do not remember) and  
installed gnome.
I've come across a couple bugs in that time, some of which I have screenshots  
of.


Occasionally, parts of the UI will disappear. This seems to happen eventually  
if I do not restart for over a week or so.
In screenshot 1 the mouse is hovering over the desktop area and we see that  
the volume icon is missing.
In screenshot 2 the mouse is hovering over the battery dropdown and we see  
that the audio icon reappears while the battery icon dissapears.
In screenshot 3 we see that after clicking on the battery dropdown, many  
icons are missing. (I censored my name.)
In screenshot 4 we see icons missing after clicking on the extra keyboards  
dropdown.


The next issue is unrelated to the first one as far as I can tell. There  
seems to be an unknown display detected by gnome.

In screenshot 5 we see this unknown display disabled.
In screenshot 6 we see a real display attatched to my laptop via a VGA cable.

Possibly related to the unknown display, the default gnome video player  
causes crashes and generally does not work. I think it starts playing on the  
unknown screen. I've been using mpv Media Player instead.
Also possibly related to the unknown display, when the unknown display was  
not disabled, closing my laptop would not activate sleep mode. I currently  
have the Unknown display disabled in the Displays menu and also have "Suspend  
even if an external monitor is plugged in" set to ON in the gnome tweaks  
tool.

Well, it always has contained an access to so called video channels. The  
package name is 'totem'. I haven't used it for a couple of years or so. I  
don't think there is something to fear, it definitely does get those videos  
ethically.

What's the package name? I don't see anything called gnome-videos or anything 
similar.

Re: [Trisquel-users] Input methods

2018-07-09 Thread Caleb Herbert
I went into Control Centre > Keyboard > Layouts.  Hebrew now works, but
it only lets me add four input methods, and Super+Space for ibus (for
Yiddish, Chinese, etc.) are no longer working.

Is it OK that GNOME Videos displays Apple movie trailers when I first
launch it?



[Trisquel-users] Input methods

2018-07-09 Thread Caleb Herbert
I just upgraded to Trisquel 8, and some of my input methods in ibus are
not working.

The input method for English, UK Dvorak, fails.  It should be UK
Dvorak, and it's labelled that way, but it is in fact not UK Dvorak; it
is UK QWERTY.

The input method for Chinese, "py (m17n)", does work.  中文: 你好!

The input method for Hindi, "Inscript (m17n)", does work.  आप।

The input method for Japanese, "Mozc", fails.  nihongo: konnichiha.

The input method for Russian fails.  @nj yt [jhjij

The input method for Esperanto, "h-fundamente (m17n)" does work.
 Esperanto: Laŭ Ludoviko Zamenhof, freŝa ĉeĥa manĝaĵo bongustas kun
spicoj.

The input method for Yiddish, "yivo (m17n)", does work.  ייִדיש: אױ װײ,
װערען זאָל פֿון דיר אַ בלינצע. 

The input method for Hebrew fails.  gcrh, knv zv kt cxsr

The input method for Arabic fails.  hggku hldm

The input method for German fails.  'ber stra;e

The input method for Spanish fails.  Espa;ol  +Por qu'e no funciona
