Cinnamon 2.x porting

Here is a place for your projects which are not officially supported by the Porteus Team. For example: your own kernel patched with extra features; desktops not included in the standard ISO like Gnome; base modules that are different than the standard ISO, etc...

I did look at these builds. I only do not see how I can take care that I have the right version.
Take a look in the .SlackBuild file somewhere near the top. You will find the version. I think the at-spi2-core is at 2.10.1.
I did not. I borrowed the pam slackbuilds of the mate desktop.
That's a pity. Dragging in PAM just for a screensaver sux. Gnome seems against modularity. Some power options may also be done through system.d so I wouldn't be surprised if hibernate and sleep don't work from the menu.
but more if you can set a language other then Englisch.
Ok. Can look at this after it is up and running.

oke,

I have to look at at-spi2-core.
And I agree it a pity. But I think most users like to have a option to lock down the computer.

When I have Cinnamon ready tommorow evening. I will test it.

And if it works I think the next steps are to stay in sync with upstream and look how we can make Cinnamon work without dropline Gnome.
Otherwise we get a very big module. and as far as I know Cinnamon 2.x needs some parts just like xfce and other gnome based DE.

All the modules are ready for testing.

What is the slackware way to tell that it must start cinnamon-session-cinnamon instead of gnome-session ?

Hello.

I changed .xinitrc to exec cinnamon-session but I see this mesage :

Code: Select all

*cinnamon-session : Unable to find required component ' nemo-autostart' 
So a lot of googling to do to solve this one.

/etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc is a symlink to /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc.gnome

In xinitrc.gnome comment out the last line and change it to: exec cinnamon-session
Based on the error you received it looks like you need to recompile nemo and make sure it produces the missing component. Take a look at the compile options in nemo.

Sure. Scroll down to this line and try to recreate the problem manually. In any case ... at line 230 your package has already been built and is waiting in /tmp. What's the problem?

I did all these steps manually on the just created tarball

Code: Select all

# Build the package:
cd $PKG
makepkg --linkadd y --chown n $OUTPUT/${PRGNAM}-${VERSION}-${ARCH}-${BUILD}${TAG}.${PKGTYPE:-tgz} 2>&1 | tee $OUTPUT/makepkg-${PRGNAM}.log
cd $OUTPUT
md5sum ${PRGNAM}-${VERSION}-${ARCH}-${BUILD}${TAG}.${PKGTYPE:-tgz} > ${PRGNAM}-${VERSION}-${ARCH}-${BUILD}${TAG}.${PKGTYPE:-tgz}.md5
cd -
cat $PKG/install/slack-desc | grep "^${PRGNAM}" > $OUTPUT/${PRGNAM}-${VERSION}-${ARCH}-${BUILD}${TAG}.txt

# Restore the original umask:
umask ${_UMASK_}
But then I do not see any error messages.
And like I said use the same slackbuild on every package of Cinnamon and only this one fails.

Re: Cinnamon 2.x porting

Post#70 by roelof » 06 Nov 2013, 13:37

I have this as xinitrc.cinnamon

Code: Select all

unset DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS
eval 'dbus-launch --exit-with-session --sh-syntax' 
exec /usr/bin/cklaunch-session cinnamon-session
But when I start up as a normal user (guest) I see this message

Code: Select all

could not acquire name on session bus
Any tips ?

Roelof

Edit 1: I cannot use the xinitrc of gnome because then nautilus is working and Cinnamon has Muffin for it.
I hope you can help me with this or else I have to stop and no cinnamon for porteus. I have asked the slackware people for help but no help.
Nobody wants Cinnamon.

I did google a lot and most of the links said I need to unset the dbus adress.

But that is not working. I still see the error message.
I think the problem is that gnome is already dbus running.

I think the problem is that gnome is already dbus running.
So what have you done about this suspicion? I would boot into text mode and check the environment variables to see if it is already set. Also check the permissions on your new xinitrc.

Here is what came up for me.

I have tried it see my xinitrc.cinnamon.
And when I do the unset rule with gnome-session.
Gnome starts up and cinnamon has still no menu.
