This is a blocker? No way.. if anything "Enchancement" And do you understand this is Alpha 2? Or Post 10.3 and not really "11.0"? Check the readme it also says Post 10.3. Changing from Blocker to Minor to help sift through TRUE blocker bugs (keeps it from working etc). This is actually a blocker. Branding must be done before we can ship. (In reply to comment #2 from Magnus Boman) > This is actually a blocker. Branding must be done before we can ship. > So branding must be done in alpha stages? Under your context then the "Release Notes" claiming to be openSUSE 10.3 should be entered as a Blocker Bug (yet every previous release post 10.0) has said the earlier version until Beta stages (at least). Ben, We should not ship openSUSE 11.0 until this is fixed, hence Blocker. It does not mean that we can not ship another alpha or beta. Let us know when you're ready for us to update jimmac. IMPORTANT: The attached splash screen requires a background color of #258c06. This I believe is done in gdm, /usr/share/gdm/defaults.conf. Failure to match the background color will result in the splash looking odd. Created attachment 204060 [details]
gnome-session splash screen
forgot to unset NEEDINFO. Maw, would be great to have this updated before beta 1. There is one more issue to worry about apart from the gdm background color needing to be #258c06. The splash label and icon overlay don't have enough padding from the splash border. Would it be possible to increase it by around 12px? Attaching a screenshot to illustrate the problem.

The label is clearly obscuring the border and the icons are packed to the left side of the splash screen.
Displaying splash on top of solid green is not possible. Even if GNOME splash screen would start on top of solid green, most of the time it displayed on top of the starting GNOME desktop (i. e. background image and later just-started applications). Splash added to gconf2-branding-openSUSE. Default color set as fallback background color in the background editor. Keeping bug opened until gdm gets the new background color. You must have machines with amazing i/o performance. All the boxes I've tested on hide the splash long before GNOME start showing up. Setting the gdm background to green works. We aren't the only one doing this fake-alpha trick. I've seen it done in Fedora in the past, and I believe ubuntu also had rounded corners on the splash using this technique. Again, this is about the GDM background color (there's one for when the greeter is used, and one when it's using the plain dialog). It's not about gnome background (nautilus). I am not sure, but I think it happens on slow machines. I know, that I have to change in gdm. But for completeness, I changed fallback background color as well. Splash was updated in gconf2-branding-openSUSE. Background change is part of a new package gdm-branding-openSUSE, which was already created and now is waiting for initial check-in. |
