Dear Wiki user, You have subscribed to a wiki page or wiki category on "Fedora Project Wiki" for change notification. The following page has been changed by PaulFrields: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Docs/Beats/Desktop?action=diff&rev2=126&rev1=125 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ {{{ gconftool-2 --set --type string /apps/gnome-screensaver/lock_dialog_theme "system" }}} + + ==== Gvfs ==== + + GNOME 2.22 features the new `Gvfs`, a userspace virtual filesystem with backends for sftp, ftp, dav, smb, obexftp, and others. The `Gvfs` system is the replacement/successor of `gnome-vfs`. + + Gvfs consists of two parts: + + * GIO, which is a new shared library that is part of GLib and provides the API for `gvfs` + * Gvfs itself, which is a new package containing backends for various file system types and protocols such as sftp, dav, smb, obexftp. + + The Gvfs system runs a single master daemon, `gvfsd`, that keeps track of the current `gvfs` mounts. Most mounts are run in a separate daemon process. Clients talk to the mounts with a combination of DBus calls (on the session bus and using peer-to-peer DBus) and a custom protocol for file contents. + + A few filesystem types previously supported by `gnome-vfs` may not be yet supported by `gvfs`. Work continues to provide completed solutions for all these types. + + ==== GNOME Display Manager ==== The GNOME Display Manager (`gdm`) has been updated to the latest upstream code. PolicyKit can be used to control shutdown and reboot. The configuration tool {{{gdmsetup}}} is set to be replaced. New features available on the login screen include. -- Fedora-relnotes-content mailing list Fedora-relnotes-content@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-relnotes-content
