After updating, the clock applet didn't remembered that I also want to see the date. I had this configured since a long time, and it remembers the setting after I activated this again. When gdm starts in the boot process, the screen is partly black and parts of it are in the typicall X11 rasterized grey color. The mouse pointer doesn't move. After switching to the text console and back, the GDM screen looks as expected and the mouse pointer follows the movement of the mouse. I did 2 reboots and I did see this every time. GDM doesn't respect my settings for "GtkTheme" in the "gui" section of /etc/gmd/custom.conf. I expect that the Option-menu would use those settings and only the "button for changing themes on the fly" in the graphical greeter isn't implemented. I used graphics/chbg to get a new background every 5 minutes. I have a large list of backgrounds and chbg offers some nice effects on background change. Now with GNOME 2.14 I get: ---snip--- % chbg -scenario /big/pics/normal.chbg Gdk-ERROR **: BadMatch (invalid parameter attributes) serial 108 error_code 8 request_code 70 minor_code 0 Gdk-ERROR **: BadMatch (invalid parameter attributes) serial 111 error_code 8 request_code 145 minor_code 3 ---snip--- I recompiled chbg, just in case it depends upon an outdated lib, but this didn't helped. Here's a ldd of chbg: ---snip-- % ldd /usr/X11R6/bin/chbg /usr/X11R6/bin/chbg: libgdk_pixbuf.so.2 => /usr/X11R6/lib/libgdk_pixbuf.so.2 (0x28102000) libgtk-12.so.2 => /usr/X11R6/lib/libgtk-12.so.2 (0x28116000) libgdk-12.so.2 => /usr/X11R6/lib/libgdk-12.so.2 (0x28257000) libgmodule-12.so.3 => /usr/local/lib/libgmodule-12.so.3 (0x2828f000) libglib-12.so.3 => /usr/local/lib/libglib-12.so.3 (0x28292000) libintl.so.6 => /usr/local/lib/libintl.so.6 (0x282b7000) libXi.so.6 => /usr/X11R6/lib/libXi.so.6 (0x282c0000) libXext.so.6 => /usr/X11R6/lib/libXext.so.6 (0x282c8000) libX11.so.6 => /usr/X11R6/lib/libX11.so.6 (0x282d6000) libm.so.4 => /lib/libm.so.4 (0x283a2000) libpng.so.5 => /usr/local/lib/libpng.so.5 (0x283b7000) libz.so.3 => /lib/libz.so.3 (0x283dc000) libc.so.6 => /lib/libc.so.6 (0x283ed000) libiconv.so.3 => /usr/local/lib/libiconv.so.3 (0x284dc000) ---snip--- Has someone an idea what the cause may be (note: there's no nautilus at startup, I disabled it)? Or at least does someone know a nice program which is able to pick every 5 minutes a new random background out of a huge list of backgrounds (they need to be scaled, but not more than to 200%, and not covered pixels need to be black and the picture itself needs to be centered in this case)? After the upgrade a part of my session was lost. The startup-programs (leftmost tab in the session settings application) are removed. I had chbg and two instances of xmbmon in there. Now there's nothing. I didn't tried to add anything there yet.
