1 greets ...

3 I was curious again and unmasked the hardmasked gnome-3.10-stuff as
4 mentioned in https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=486484
5
6 So far it works fine on both my desktop and thinkpad.
7
8 The only issue I see right now is vmware-player crashing when I want to
9 open/resume my small Windows-VM. This might have to do with gnome-3.10
10 or not, no idea!
11
12 Does anyone else here have problems with the player lately? Couldn't
13 find anything on bgo.
14
15 Maybe I should install a small WM in parallel to check if it's gnome or
16 not. Recommendations?
17
18 The underlying reason for needing windows in a VM is the fact that I
19 can't sync my Suunto Ambit2 watch with movescount.com as they don't
20 provide a linux-binary and the moveslink-windows-binary does not install
21 with wine here.

23 See

27 ... would be great if someone knows a solution for this as well!

29 Thanks!
