Re: GNOME Fam or Gamin Problem



So I should use FAM instead of Gamin ? What should I do to make it update the directories and menus ?

I think I use the default gamin ? Any way, if Gamin is not compiled with inotify support, why is it used ? How does it work to update things ?

Yes, gamin uses inotify, but for some reason gamin 0.15 can't find
inotify on your system. To verify that you have a working inotify
install, try running the inotify-utils found in rml's folder on
kernel.org.

Gamin in debian is not compiled with inotify support (as there isn't a kernel
that supports that in debian..)
tunix@tunix:~$ uname -r
2.6.12.4

I'm sure I use 2.6.12.4.. Here is the file you wanted..

/tmp/foo has 0 bytes ? Would you like me to send it ?
I want you to send me the gamin debug log after you do this:

open nautilus window /tmp
touch /tmp/foo

The inotify version needed in gamin 0.1.5 is only there for kernels >= 2.6.13
(still to be released) afaik.

My suggestion would be to run a default debian kernel and a default
gamin.. And then file bugs against debian gamin package if needed. This way
it's possible to debug what's wrong on a vanilla debian system (or at least
what goes wrong on your system).
