Description Jacob Perkins 2002-06-28 01:57:23 UTC
I reported to gnome's bugzilla too.  The actual system monitor works ok, albeit
kinda slow and unresponsive, but the applet crashes on load.  This is for
gnome2, gnome-system-monitor-2.0.0-r1, gnome-applets-2.0.0.  Also, gcc3.1.
Comment 1 Spider (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2002-06-28 02:49:23 UTC
okay, I have the same setup here and it works for me.... 

I'm going to check that the schemas are installed properly though.
Comment 2 Spider (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2002-06-28 02:51:47 UTC
I re-checked gnome-applets, and yes, that seems to be working properly with schemas.

What compile-time flags?
Comment 3 Jacob Perkins 2002-06-28 02:56:55 UTC
CHOST="i686-pc-linux-gnu"
CFLAGS="-march=pentium3 -O3 -pipe -mmmx -msse -mfpmath=sse -fomit-frame-pointer"
CXXFLAGS="-march=pentium3 -O3 -pipe -mmmx -msse -mfpmath=sse -fomit-frame-pointer"

Ewww..

okay, could be thats the reason, leaving this to the bugzilla team at Gnome, but
you could please try the new version thats in portage.
Comment 5 Jacob Perkins 2002-06-28 11:02:41 UTC
Still doesn't work with the new applet version.  Should I try emerging it with
some less icky CFLAGS?
Comment 6 Spider (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2002-06-28 21:06:15 UTC
you can try, but I'm really not sure what is causing this....
Comment 7 Jacob Perkins 2002-07-02 22:24:36 UTC
After getting fed up with gnome-pilot and gaim requiring the old gnome-panel 
and control-center, I emerged them (since I had unmerged them thinking that 
they weren't required for gnome2).  This fixed the system-monitor not loading 
problem and also gave me a settings option for xscreensaver, which I didn't 
have before.  What's weird about the xscreensaver settings dialog is that it is 
for gnome2, and not 1.4, but I didn't get it until emerging the old 1.4 control-
panel.  Anyway, I guess this is fixed now, but maybe gnome people need to know 
that some of the gnome2 apps still need the old stuff to run correctly.
