sobremore - you must be using Testing (or maybe even sid).

I just tested a fresh install of antiX-13 Wheezy and all works just fine even with upgrades.

I then changed the debian repo to testing and I get the same errors you post.

Simply put, gnome (once again) has broken gtk3 theme compatibility.
If you use a gtk2 theme, like clearlooks, then the errors for roxterm and transmission-gtk no longer appear.(There are still some errors shown if file-roller is opened).

You could also install and use clearlooks-phenix-theme

Yuo and Dave, I think, are/were right!

After changing theme, because of scrollbar arrows - this was the first reason, the other bugs/problems disappeared!
My reaction was too slow on your suggestions, sorry.

I was confused with those"themes"! Dont't forget themes from Start menu: Debian/Settings/Themes! Changing them didn't make any difference, bugs remained... I needed time to notice that you speak about"gtk2 theme" from"Control Center"...

Thanks!

WIFI via USB Adaptor Issue

To set a baseline the issue was also tested against two previous versions.

Symptoms not present in
antiX-M11-Full Liqorix kernel 3.4.0-3.dmz.1-liquorix-68
antiX-12-Full 3.5.0-antix.2-486-smp

Symptoms present in
antiX-13-Live 3.7.10-antix.3-486-smp
antiX-13.1-Full 3.7.10-antix.3-486-smp installed to internal hard disk

Symptoms
Connecting to either:

remote web page that downloads some content files
LAN share and explicity downloading some files

Part way through the file transfer stalls
In this condition:

a connection cannot be made to another page or share
ifconfig shows the ip address is still allocated
ping any LAN address fails with message"Destination Host Unreachable".
ifup/down and networking stop/start do not resolve the matter
Attempting to reconfigure WIFI via either Ceni or WICD fails as no network device is found.

Unplugging and re-plugging the USB-WIFI adaptor allows WIFI network to be maually configured again and the connection made again.

WIFI adaptor
Realtek RTL8191SU 802.11n WLAN Adapter

It seems that an issue has been introduced the 13 series as the previous two versions work as expected. As soon a the problem is encountered, the system can no longer see the WIFI device.

Edit
Continued in post34849.html#p34849

Edit 2
Status: FIXED - tested and working in kernel 3.11.5-antix.1-486-smp

Connectshares Issues

Configuration Template
Connectshares contains an incorrectly named template file. It prevents creating an additional configuration file. This bug will affect very few users as most will use only the default conf which works OK.

The incorrectly named file
/ etc/skel/.config/connectshares/connectshares-template.conf
~/.config/connectshares/connectshares-template.conf

In both cases should be named
.../template.conf

Starting Multiple Configurations via GUI
Connectshares contains an incorrectly formed command to start additional configurations in GUI mode. This bug will affect very few users as most will use only the default conf which works OK.

The issue is in /usr/local/bin/connectshares

Add $1 to the executable line so it reads

Code: Select all

urxvt -geometry 50x15 +sb -fn 10x20 -T 'Connectshares' -e sudo connectshares.sh $1

Note: that is all on one line

Edit: Add other report.

Which repository is the update coming from?

Which repository is the update coming from?

Sorry about the delay. Antix 13 -64 on testing Elno.

I've found a partial explanation

This error indicates that the software is using perfectly valid GTK library calls with a newer version of the GTK library. Sometimes during software development it is desirable to get rid of the,"old way", to do things while maintaining backwards compatibility. This is accomplished by marking the undesired calls depreciated. This tells the developer that their code is perfectly valid in this release, but in the future their code will need to be updated to work with a new version of the library, possibly many releases down the road.

In this case, GTK wants to be more strict about including units on dimensions. It tells the developer that GTK is assuming the units are pixels, which is the exact assumption that the software developer made in the first place.

Not using units is deprecated. Assuming 'px'.

That is a long and very complicated way of saying that these warnings are for the developers of the icon-theme, and do not reflect actual run-time problems.

Reading through this entire thread, I've half fixed things by installing MediterraneanTributeBlue theme. Rox now works but still no synaptic.

did you change the theme for root as well?

Thanks Dave! I've been trying to lon-in to tell you everything is now fixed for the past hour or so. Synaptic is now working fine, along with RoxTerm. __{{emoticon}}__

I'm going to get the update now that I see a fix. Thanks
