gnome-session: Session Tools for the GNOME 2.x Desktop ---------------------------------------------------------------------- File: gnome-session-2.12.0-106.28.i586.rpm Patchrpm: gnome-session-2.12.0-106.28.i586.patch.rpm Version: 2.12.0-106.28 Size: 524 kB Patchsize: 268 kB Date: Wed 06 Dec 2006 21:25:40 CET Source: gnome-session-2.12.0-106.28.src.rpm Security: No ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Description: The test currently used by gnome-session to decide whether to run metacity or compiz is not completely reliable. In particular, at some point NVIDIA will release a new version of their driver that has changed in such a way that gnome-session will get confused and think it should start compiz rather than metacity under Xorg, which will not work, with the end result being that the user ends up with no window manager at all. This patch changes gnome-session to use the same test which is used in openSUSE 10.2.
