Printing: Enabling the LPR backend

On the 24th of January I sent a message to the gnome-print-list and
received no response. Looking at the list history it appears that this
list is dead. So, I will forward it to this list in the hope of getting
some response:

Hello,
We (unfortunately) still use lprng for printing. In
/usr/lib64/gtk-3.0/3.0.0/printbackends we have libprintbackend-lpr.so.
In applications using gtk2.0 (e.g. Firefox) the Print menu has an "LPR"
option that allows the user to enter options to the lpr command in to a
text box below the list. In gtk3.0 applications this option is missing.
I have tried changing settings.ini to include gtk-print-backends =
"lpr,file,cups", but this doesn't seem to have done it. gedit, for
example, still does not have the lpr option. I suspect maybe this
setting should go in gconf now, but I can't see where.

How can I properly enable the lpr print backend for gtk 3.0?

two modes for mail-notify

I cannot explain why mail-notification has two distinct behaviors on my
system (gnome 3.2, gentoo ~amd64).

In both modes, when I move the cursor to the lower right corner
I see notifications (mail and wicd).  The two modes for
mail-notification are.

1 (The mode I want).  Hovering over the mouse shows the first 10
message headers and gives the total count.  (Left) clicking the icon
runs the mail reader (fetchmail in my case).

2.  Hovering has no effect.  Clicking shows the last two messages.
Right clicking offers "open" and "remove".  I don't see any effect from
"open" and have not tried "remove".

I much prefer mode 1.  How can I ensure it is always used.

thanks,
allan

GNOME Extension

Hi,


I wrote an extension and submitted on extensions.gnome.org almost over a week back. It still says "Unreviewed". How long does it generally take?

mail-notification behavior is bimodal

I cannot explain why mail-notification has two distinct behaviors:
sometimes one, sometimes the other.

In both modes, when I move the cursor to the lower right corner
I see notifications (mail and wicd).  The two modes for
mail-notification are.

1 (The mode I want).  Hovering over the mouse shows the first 10 msg
headers and gives the total count.  (Left) clicking the icon runs the
mail reader (fetchmail in my case).

2.  Hovering has no effect.  Clicking shows the last two messages.
Right clicking offers "open" and "remove".  I don't see any effect from
"open" and have not tried "remove".

How can I specify that I wish mode 1 all the time?

thanks,
allan

It seems like you're using fallback mode. This is used when the graphics
card or the drivers are not good enough.

What kind of graphics card do you have? Can you go to system settings,
system info. Then under the graphics tab you should see if you're using
fallback mode or not.

Else, just post a screenshot.

Extension: Auto Hide Top Panel

I've been running Fedora 16 for about two months and I have been really happy with it, once the extensions for Gnome 3 came out.

I was shocked and dismayed when I was setting up a new (Fedora 16) system for a friend and the error I got from the extension page was that the auto hide top panel was not compatible with my version of Gnome 3. And if you go to the general extensions site, you can't find it anymore.

https://extensions.gnome.org/extension/42/auto-hide-top-panel/version/99/

What. The. Hell?

And not only that, the noa11y was not available either. These are my two most favorite extensions. In fact, I dare say that if they were eliminated from Gnome 3, I would change to a different Windows manager because I find the very pleasing.

So my question is:

What happened to the auto-hide-top-panel and noa11y?

Shouldn't there be some log, some site that says "hey, we removed it because ......"

problem in Fedora16 with Gnome3

Hello


I'm using Fedora 16 with Gnome3 but at top-panel I'm getting only Applications and places but not Activities. I'm unable to get windows to desktop and applications also not working.

showing the date on the gnome3 "top bar"

I have gnome3 running on two machines and am quite happy with it.

Somehow on one machine, when I am logged in, the center of the top bar
has the time with the day of the week, e.g.,

                  Tue 11:56 PM

The other includes the date as well, something like

                 Tue jan 24, 11:56 PM

I prefer the latter but can not find the button to press to change the
format.  I have clicked all over "date and time settings".

thanks in advance,
allan

Gnome 3 and multi-GPU

Hi All,

Does Gnome 3 at all support more than one GPU (multiGPU)?

If this is supported, is the way to goodness to use:
a) Xinerama
b) Randr
c) something else

It is not working for me using nVidia Quadro NVS 450 and three monitors, and I see other people with all sorts of multi-GPU configurations having difficulties, too.


Harald

Doubt, adding several functions at the same event(GTK+)

I have two doubts about GTK+. The first is when I call:
gtk_signal_connect (widget, "key-press-event", G_CALLBACK (function1), NULL);
and then:
gtk_signal_connect (widget, "key-press-event", G_CALLBACK (function2), NULL);

when the event occurs, both functions will be called? The second doubt is because when I call
gtk_signal_connect (widget, "key-press-event", G_CALLBACK (function), NULL);
and press one key on the widget function "function" is not called? What else to add missing?
