Hello, I'm trying to test how Online Desktop stores a GConf variable and how it synchronises these variables. First of all I've set a key on GConf called "/desktop/gnome/myapp/myvar". Then I've modified the file "~/od/install/share/online-prefs-sync/online-prefs-sync.synclist" adding the next line: <key name="/desktop/gnome/myapp/myvar" scope="saved-per-user" priority="lowest"/> I've done this in another computer (setting a different value for this key), and I've started an Online Desktop session in the two computers (not at same time), but this variable isn't synchronised. After that, I've tried modifying the file "~/od/checkout/online-desktop/online-prefs-sync/online-prefs-sync.synclist". Later I've recompiled "online-desktop" module and repeat the process in the two computers. However GConf variable isn't synchronised. I'm sure that I've made some mistakes. On the other hand, I've noticed that file "~/od/checkout/online-desktop/online-prefs-sync/online-prefs-sync.synclist" has a strange format, the content of this file is: <online_sync> <key name="/apps/metacity/*" scope="saved-per-user" priority="lowest"/>, <key name="/desktop/gnome/applications/*" scope="saved-per-user" priority="lowest"/>, <key name="/desktop/gnome/background/*" scope="saved-per-user" priority="lowest"/>, <key name="/desktop/gnome/interface/*" scope="saved-per-user" priority="lowest"/>, <key name="/desktop/gnome/url-handlers/*" scope="saved-per-user" priority="lowest"/> <!-- for testing syncing a string list and per-machine --> <key name="/apps/deskbar/enabled_handlers" scope="saved-per-user" priority="lowest"/> </online_sync> I've removed the commas, because if it's a XML the symbol "," isn't needed. I don't know why there are commas in this file.
