Thanks Leigh for your reference.
Scriplet errors are fixed in engrampa-1.1.0-2.fc16.x86_64 and mate-notification-daemon-1.1.0-2.fc16.x86_64.
The new package versions are uploaded.

very good job raveit65, I guess idk what to use now, cinnamon or mate

cheers

hey again..
stupid question...
How do you enable destop effects?
I spend a few days and can't find a way.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Try

Code:

mate-session-properties

And add compiz as a startup program

enter this in the command section

Code:

compiz ccp --replace

Hey Thanks

I dont have compiz intalled, and I read somewhere on this thread that the newest version does not work.

which one do I need to install?

---------- Post added at 11:29 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:14 AM ----------

0.94
got it... thanks

---------- Post added at 11:41 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:29 AM ----------

I install 0.95 because there is no other in the repo...?
then i do

Code:

compiz ccp --replace
compiz (core) - Error: Couldn't load plugin 'ccp'
compiz (core) - Error: Couldn't load plugin 'ccp'
compiz (core) - Warn: SmcOpenConnection failed: None of the authentication protocols specified are supported

and I lose marco (windows decoration)

---------- Post added at 12:37 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:41 AM ----------

ok got the error fix...
but still having problems with window decoration...
is there a replace command under MATE for:

Code:

gtk-window-decorator --replace

when I do it, I get the Adwaita window decorator...

You forgot to install ccsm

any way to replace metacity with marco?

raveit65 · #53 20th February 2012, 09:36 PM

The normal way to do this is

Code:

marco --replace &

But this breaks compiz on my desktop. (compiz-0.94)
I start compiz drectly with emerald with the compiz-manger script and that works.
Try this command maybe it works with compiz-0.95.
I read about that mate has problems with compiz and they have a own compiz version at
https://github.com/stefano-k/compiz
But i don't know what's the different to the normal compiz version and why they initiate a own version.
The main problem is that marco isn't integrate in compiz. So if you start the gtk-windows-decorator it will start metacity not marco.

---------- Post added at 10:36 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:33 PM ----------

Pls, can you open a issue report at https://github.com/mate-desktop/mate-window-manager .
I'll also ask the developer about problems with compiz.

solo2101 · #54 21st February 2012, 01:57 AM

Ok I found a workarround... and it works great...

you need to copy the theme folder from /usr/share/theme/Equinox Evolution Dawn (in my case)
to your home ~/.themes folder...

under the ~/.theme/Equinox Evolution Dawn (in this case)
you just need the metacity-1 folder, so you can erase the other files...

Then use gnome3 tweak tool to set "Theme-> Window Theme" to Equinox Evolution Dawn (in this case)

and it works...

He guys,
i need a little bit help.
If i build mate-keyring for i686 i get following error in the make part.

Code:

rpmbuild/BUILD/mate-keyring-1.1.0/gp11/.libs/libmategp11.so: undefined reference to `__sync_bool_compare_and_swap_4'

With configure flag

Code:

CFLAGS="-march=i686 -O2"

i can solve the make error.
But how can i insert this in the spec file for building x86_64 and i686?
I try the following but it doesn't work.

Code:

%configure --disable-gtk-doc \
           --with-pam-dir=/%{_lib}/security \
           --disable-acl-prompts \
           --enable-pam \
           --with-gtk=2.0 \
%ifarch i686
	   CFLAGS="-march=i686 -O2"
%endif

The CFLAGS parameter would be ignored.

Edit: google helps
With the configure flag
CFLAGS='-march=native -mtune=native -g -O2'
building for i686 and x86_64 works.

This would be the correct way to set cflags (you forgot to export and there is no point calling it after configure).

Code:

%ifarch %{ix86}
export CFLAGS="-march=i686 -O2"
%endif
%configure --disable-gtk-doc \
           --with-pam-dir=/%{_lib}/security \
           --disable-acl-prompts \
           --enable-pam \
           --with-gtk=2.0

What buildsystem are you using to build your packages? as it's broken!, if building on i686 O/S or mock the default flags are automatically set to

Thx for your help.
I'm building on a standard fc16 32 bit installation in virtualbox.
I see those are normally the standard exports, but without extra calling them i can't build mate-keyring on i686.
Is there a way to test the buildsystem?
I 've to use the exports with libmatekeyring too. This package builds normal but without the export i get the error during building the libmatekeyring part in the caja package.

All the 32bit packages have '.i386' in it's name.
caja-1.1.2-5.fc16.i386.rpm
I expected 'i686'.

That isn't ideal, a better alternative is to use the mock buildsystem on your native 64bit O/S.
In fact I would recommend using mock for both arch's, here's my custom mock config which runs createrepo after each successful build.

Code:

config_opts['root'] = 'fedora-16-x86_64'

config_opts['legal_host_arches'] = ('x86_64',)
config_opts['chroot_setup_cmd'] = 'groupinstall buildsys-build'
config_opts['dist'] = 'fc16'  # only useful for --resultdir variable subst

config_opts['basedir'] = '/home/leigh/'
#config_opts['basedir'] = '/dev/shm/'
config_opts['resultdir'] = "/var/lib/mock/fedora-16-x86_64"

config_opts['cleanup_on_failure'] = False

config_opts['createrepo_on_rpms'] = True

You can also use the --target option (this may help the cflags)

Code:

rpmbuild -ba --target=i686 package.spec
