You need compositing enabled for any theme other than classic.

[Miguel Pires]

I am testing in Ubuntu Intrepid and I am experiencing just two minor
problems: Some actions always default to "Copy to clipboard".
If I search for a Pidgin contact, the default action is Copy to
clipboard rather than Chat. This also happens to (home) directories
where the default should be Open.

Otherwise it completely rocks.

[David Siegel]

Are you using the latest alpha? This bug was fixed a little while ago.

[Miguel Pires]

The problem with the default action is showed in the screenshot:
http://i44.tinypic.com/wv3dqo.png

It only relates to the plugins Files and folders and Pidgin. For
instance, programs have Run as the default action.

[David Siegel]

No, the Pidgin buddy thing I understand, I am trying to verify that
this does not occur for files and folders. Is Open the default for
files and folders?

Hi there,

First of all, thanks to the development team for your effort.

I am having trouble compiling the alpha3 on Ubuntu 8.04 LTS.

./configure works ok (after installing all dependencies), but I get
five compilation errores as trying make. I paste both outputs.

Regards,Álvao

Actually, we don't support Ubuntu 8.04 - Do requires a Mono version >=
1.9, because we use a variety of C# 3.0 features.

The fact that configure works is a bug; it should complain about
having a too-old compiler!

You can get it to work by installing the backported Mono found in
directhex's Badgerports repository:
http://directhex.mfgames.com/hardy.html
He's one of the Debian mono packagers, so these should be high-quality
backports.

[Miguel Pires]

The default action for Files and Folders is also Copy to clipboard. I
looked into the plugin's configuration and nothing appears, it's
blank. Should I purge the plugin folder or something similar?

I was going to ask the same question. I used to configure paths and
depths so that I could index items in my ~/bin and primary documents
directories -- and now cannot do this.

Otherwise, I'm quite happy -- especially as with a new release, I
re-examined the plugins, and found ones for virtualbox and tinyurl. :)

The VirtualBox plugin causes Gnome-Do to crash. I don't know if it
happened before, I just found the VirtualBox and activated it with the
current alpha...

VirtualBox 2.0.6 on Ubuntu 8.10

I get the following stacktrace when trying to start an existing VM:

I got the update this morning (from the Launchpad PPA) and that bug is
fixed. It's nice to be able to set up my file and folder search again.

[Miguel Pires]

The Files and folder plugin is configurable again, as well as being
fixed the default action, to Open.

The Pidgin plugin still has Copy to clipboard as default though.

[Sean Dague]

When any of the devs get a chance, I have a proposed merge on some fixes
for the nx plugin waiting on launch pad (the version in all the alphas
doesn't work).

Thanks,

-Sean
