Yes and no. Why should a user have to create a profile in Sabayon just
to be able to edit the properties of Slab?
If you want to improve on Sabayon, please do. If you can not help out
code wise for whatever reason, please file an enhancement request in
bugzilla for the pieces you think are missing.
Magnus,
Yes, right click properties to the menu are indeed a nice future for the
gnome. If these right clicks are designed to assist in the removal of
other desktop settings tools. I am not asking that the average user be
required to use Sabayon for anything, I am just asking that gconf, the
"main menu" editor and the "lockdown editor" all produce changes that
Sabayon will recognize, Or that a Sabayon style tool be built and
updated along side the changes in these tools.
I have opened a bug on the inability of Sabayon to recognize SLAB and
app browser changes.
If I where to suggest an enhancement that you could \ should be looking
at, it would be to pull the gconf editor and lockdown editor settings
into the main menu editor and remove the other two from the application
list, if not from the distro all together.
The gnome needs to congeal it's management tools in order to offer the
user some sensible, simple management. Starting a forth way to manage
the desktop is not conducive to removing adoption impediments or
increasing network usage of either SLED or opensuse. The Gnome as
presented by both, force me to shut the slab down in order to present a
restricted desktop to students. In effect reducing both to level of
usability provided in Ubuntu, that's so five years ago.
Thanks for all you do,
JT
