Hello everyone, I recently installed Gnome. I am using Ubuntu Linux 11.10 Oneiric Ocelot. The Gnome Classic desktop is working, however the new Gnome desktop is not being loaded when I choose that option. Instead, it keeps falling back to the Gnome Classic desktop. I tried uninstalling Gnome and then reinstalling it and the same thing continues to happen. Can someone help me get this to work? Sincerely,

Hello I do not know English very well, so hastily translated the text through google.com.Original in Russian is below. In this letter I would like to say something about the new Gnome3. The visual style I definitely liked it, but, like many critics, I can not disagree with the fact that the new design did not care about a vertical distance of the application windows. In this regard, Unity a few steps ahead of you. However, for Unity, this approach is not entirely appropriate - visually it looks awful. But for some of the techniques of Gnome3 Unity would be very helpful. What's more - they would have looked very out of place and more to fit into the concept of mobile devices. For more information on the coveted my change. 1. In the first place would have cost to return the clock to their "rightful" place. Watch the middle of the panel - what is it?? 2. The next step. Remove the key Activities, so you can move the icon and the name of the current application to the left, to the edge of the

Hello! After using GNOME 2 for 5 years on a workstation I recently switched to a laptop *and* to GNOME 3. I realized I kept expressing frustration with GNOME 3 but really the root of my frustration had more to do with the touchpad on my laptop. I figured out a workaround to my problem last night and posted a question and answer combination to a forum. It's gotten a pretty positive response so far, based on upvotes, so I thought I'd copy and paste it here. If I should be sending feedback like this to some other mailing list, please let me know! Thanks for everyone's hard work on GNOME!

Standard install on Ubuntu 11.10, Gnumeric 1.10.17  comes up without menu bars, just a minimalist thing across the top with icons for common operations. How do i get the menu bar that has drop down menus to appear?  This is why I'm sure I can't find the advanced functions like Fourier transforms and such...

I would like to use the FFT and Periodogram functions, and I know these are run through Dialog boxes, but the documentation, unless I missed it, doesn't say how to invoke these...

Hey gnomecrew, I want to point out the menus  gnome 3 has. First: I'm using gnome since 2000. And I've liked it, until gnome 3 came and its big mouse controlled menu, I can't use mouse, reason: I had a terrible car crash 31. Dets 2005, and due to that I spent 6 months in coma and that messed up my  hands. So no mouse usage for me. I installed gnome 3.4.1 on a virtualbox (and it looked good), but I'm afraid it has that crappy mouse controlled menu again when I install it on a PC, like gnome 3.2.1 had.

In Nautilus under the Network section of the side panel there is a list of the network repositories I am connected to [CIFS, WebDAV, SFTP, etc..] This is awesome. But in applications I see these available in the file-chooser *sometimes*. For Firefox in example if I go to upload a file I do not see them. I hit Ctrl-L, enter ".gvfs", and I can navigate to the remote file I want to upload. It works.... but is there way to see these Network Places enumerated in the file-chooser dialog irregardless of application?

Hi. I remapped my Tab and Escape keys using xmodmap, for editing with vi, xmodmap -e 'keycode 23 = Escape' xmodmap -e 'keycode 9 = Tab' but now task switching in GNOME 2 (on CentOS 5.7) is broken. When I strike the Alt-Tab physical keys now, I get my previous window. If I press the Alt-Tab keys, and release the Tab key while still holding down Alt, I get the Tash Switcher window, with the 2nd icon highlighted, but if I then press the Tab key again, the Task Switcher window goes away. When I strike the physical keys Alt-Escape it just switches me back to the previous window, and it does not matter if I hold down Alt or not, same deal. What's the proper way to remap Tab and Escape within GNOME 2, please? Best, Aleksey

Hi, How can I enable sticky-notes in gnome3? I use Debian and have the gnome-applet package installed. I also see the sticky-notes applet in the /usr/lib/gnome-applet dir. But how to start it? Gr, Willem

Hi, Looks like the fallback alternative is gone, so I have to use the default mess if not switching to some other WM :-( Is there a replacement for the netspeed applet available? Is there any settings that at least mimics the looks-and-feel of gnome 2 available??? Another question: How do I switch between to applications running in two work areas or (whatever it is called now). To switch, now I have to move the mouse to the upper left corner, click on the work area, click on the application (if I can find it there, no icons with titles any longer). The going back the same procedure again, not productive in my opinion.

Hello list, I've often wanted to find out how to evoke gnome-panel menus via textual commands, so that I could open and switch focus to a menu via a keyboard shortcut. For example, GNOME 2's "shutdown menu" part of the Indicator applet is mapped to on my system, and the main Applications menu is accessible via . Say I'd like to change these mappings, or create similar mappings in GNOME Classic - I'd need to have a "command" to evoke on pressing my desired keyboard combination, right? I don't know how else to describe what I want to the system. So: What command can be used to interact with gnome-panel menus / applets? And, is there a generalised way I can find out what internal signals or commands are executed when I interact with parts of the GNOME desktop with the mouse? Thanks!

Hi list, I am trying to understand the logic behind the changes in power management settings from Gnome 2 -> 3. In particular, the removal of the separate display brightness settings for battery and AC mode. This seems to have been not merely a GUI simplification, as the settings don't exist in dconf either. My question is why this was done, since the display backlight is a major consumer of power on laptops. Every other OS/desktop environment allows this kind of dimming behaviour to be configured with varying levels of granularity. At first I thought the 'dim to save power' option might cause the display to be dimmed automatically when I unplug AC power, but that does not seem to be the case. In my view at the absolute bare minimum users should be able to configure brightness settings for AC and battery modes, and possibly also also dimming levels for each of these. Dimming to 20% brightness might be fine on one machine, while on another it might make the display totally unreadable. If it is a matter of

Hi, I'm trying to write my own pixel values to a GdkPixbuf in a GtkImage widget. I've attached the source file for my program, which doesn't seem to do anything. The function for modifying the pixel values is a slightly modified version of the one found on the GdkPixbuf documentation page, http://developer.gnome.org/gdk-pixbuf/unstable//gdk-pixbuf-The-GdkPixbuf-Structure.html Can someone explain to me if there's anything I'm doing wrong with the pixel information?

Hey Guys, If gnome 3 is so great, then why are so many people having such problems with it.....for one, you can't make any changes to panels (i.e. panel height, opacity, adding apps to panels, etc.) can't change fonts or font sizes. There are certain programs that don't work with gnome 3, but you guys won't know that because you don't necessarily check to find out what works with it and what doesn't...for instance, xiphos bible software doesn't work with gnome 3...it only works up to kernel 3.0.0-1, after that, nothing, it'll start briefly, then die. Other than that, it's pretty nice, but I still don't like the fact that you can't make changes to the panels.....so do us all a favor, do a little more research in what works with new kernels before assuming that they'll be ok with everyone....because what I'm seeing in my local forum is nothing short of horrible, people (users) having all kinds of problems, but no one to take responsibility or willingness to fix it.....
