Back

Hi again! I’ve my flat ok, and I’m back of my holidays so I’m ready to work on gloobus again!!!

I want to create a project webpage but I’d like some help, do you know a free hosting? any of you wants to design the webpage? something like gnome-do (Its really good!!) I’m sure this will help people to know about gloobus.

The second and really interesting: KitKat had developed a patch for nautilus that LAUNCHES GLOOBUS-PREVIEW WITH THE SPACE KEY!! I tried it with my both computers and it works perfectly!

To install it

download the lastest stable nautilus:
ftp://ftp.gnome.org/mirror/gnome.org…-2.26.3.tar.gz

Download kitkat patch (http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=7837548#post7837548)

Code:
tar zxvf archive.tar.gz
cd nautilus-2.26.3
patch -p1 < /path_to_my_patch

u ll see the files been patched here

all u have to do is compile nautilus now:

Code:
./configure --prefix=/usr
make

EDIT:

In my ./configure it asked for unique-1.0, so I installed that lib:

apt-get install libunique

Maybe your ./configure asks for more libs, install them all to be able to compile nautilus.

at this step u can already test nautilus by lauching it (close it before if is runing with

Code:
nautilus -q
./src/nautilus

without deleting your distribution version
if u like the patch u can do a make install too

Today I’ll try to solve some bugs in the bugtrack so I familiarize with the code again and then I’ll try to add some new things!!

See you!

Help Needed: Nautilus Actions

May 19, 2009 by Jordi Hernàndez

Hi guys!
I would like to ask you something,

Could anyone of you develop a nautilus extension (like nautilus-open-terminal) that launches
gloobus directory

and another one that launches

gloobus-preview directory/filename

because I would like to include it in the deb and I prefer wasting my time in the application itself I don’t think it’s hard so I hope you can help me in this.
I’ve gloobus coverflow in a very good state so in a week or two I’ll upload the deb !!! it’s amazing!! HEHEHEHE

Thanks!

And of course.. if you want to donate me something I would appreciate it!

Coverflow with default file image

May 17, 2009 by Jordi Hernàndez

Here it comes, the Gloobus-Coverflow, loading the default file image and launching gloobus-preview!

There’s still a lot way to go, but it looks really good for now, much more better than the previous version using SDL and OpenGL directly!

Here you can see the video:

PSD and XCF (XCF.bz) SUPPORT

May 12, 2009 by Jordi Hernàndez

Amazing, PSD and XCF support!! the fastest way to see the PSD I ever seen!!

psd

It uses pixbuf loaders (Thanks to Pierre Slamich for making me know about it)
In the next release I’ll add all in the deb so the loaders will be installed automatically.

Here are the links to the loaders I used.
