So today I’ve spent most of my time trying to figure out a bug with Debian (sid) Compiz and Metacity/Gnome where there was no window controls i.e. no minimise, maximise, restore and close button.
I found some bugs listed #629239 and #639207 which was the same issue as mine and not the normal “missing emerald” crap.
So after much searching and playing about I decided to downgrade my Metacity to 2.30.1-3 from Metacity 2.34.1-1 which solved my problem!
I’ve mainly been working on gg-sim.co.uk making the layout closer in looks to giffgaffs (and be XHTML1.1 Valid). We also ran a competition because we’ve reached 100 users! The competition was pretty successful too bringing in another 18 users ontop of what we had and we’re still growing!
I’ve not done much work on ldir recently apart from editing some code in a modified version for gg-sim but that version isn’t available for public use. don’t forget you can happily modify ldir to suit your needs as it’s licensed under the GPL.
I have updated to the new WordPress 3.2 system, nothing too big different just removed support for IE6 and some better backend code.
I have also re-coded the current website theme (lightword) to be xhtml 1.1 compliant instead of xhtml 1.0 trans. I am looking at migrating to a different theme but not until I have properly tested it and made it compliant with W3C.
Why can’t these theme developers create the themes as W3C Valid in the first place? ARGH!
