Hey,
I think it'd be nice to make it easy for people to test the GNOME 3
stuff in 11.2. A few things this could imply:
+ having a nice http://en.opensuse.org/GNOME/3.0 page explaining how to
setup everything (with one-click install links), what should be
tested, etc.
+ have good documentation (with one-click install) on at least those
topics:
- gnome-shell
- new accessibility stack
- zeitgeist?
+ make it easy to choose to log in GNOME Shell instead of the
traditional metacity + panel from gdm.
This implies:
- adding a .desktop file in /usr/share/xsessions
- setting up a specific directory that will contain new autostart
files, mostly for gnome-shell. The desktop files will contain
X-GNOME-Provides=panel and X-GNOME-Provides=windowmanager (we
might be able to merge this into one with "panel;windowmanager;")
- start the gnome session as usual, but with a different
XDG_CONFIG_DIRS variable that will let us add our new autostart
directory.
Any other ideas? Any volunteers? :-)

Both bugs 436758[1] and 386359[2] have been open for a year or more,
both relating to YaST & the Control Center.
The first recommends YaST, in the right hand side of the Computer
menu, should be renamed to something more descriptive, like
"Administrator Settings". This was originally opened against 11.1 but
was pushed back.
[1] https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=436758
The second recommends re-adding Common Tasks to the Control Center, as
we had during 10.2. It was quick shortcuts to tasks (like Add a
Printer, Manage Accounts, Change Default Applications) that can be
quickly done in either the Control Center or YaST. This was originally
opened against 11.0(!).

Is there enough time to get these two usability issues settled before 11.2?
Thanks,

Funny thing: ggreeter is crashin in factory. Nobody noticed. And I don't
know of anybody really fond of this. Can we just finally kill it? :-)

Are there packages for Tracker <http://projects.gnome.org/tracker/>
available for openSUSE 11.2? My searching hasn't turned anything up.
Given the unmaintained status of Beagle are there plans to include
Tracker in future versions of openSUSE?

Hi.
Although i'm trying to enable smoothing Subpixel (LCDs) and i'm trying
to change all hinting options, the result is still the same. Fonts are
without smoothing.
Everything works under root, but under current user doesn't.
I had the same experience in 11.1 also.
Is it known and reproducible, or could it be my specific issue?

Hi.
I´m wondering why applying wireless to all user doesn´t work. When i
check option "Available to all users" and then "Apply" button in
NetworkManager applet, nothing happens. Why?
I tried it in Ubuntu 9.04 and it worked for me. After clicking on the
"Apply" button, nm asked the root password and then it worked.
Just to be sure, attached screenshot what i mean.
Thanks.

Hi,
We now have a build failure for bigboard because of a
telepathy-mission-control update. Looking a bit around, bigboard (and
desktop-data-model/online-desktop) is not maintained anymore, and
fedora removed the packages.
So I'm going to remove them from openSUSE too: with no upstream and a
build failure, there's no real point in keeping them.
(backups will be kept in home:vuntz:Attic_11.2)
Cheers,
Vincent

Hi listmates,
Every once in a while we see the request to be able to start evince (the free pdf reader) from the application menu.
What do you think about it? Keep in mind that we also want to clean up the start menu, not crushing down on our users when they first open it.
I've setup a small google form [1] where you can vote for it. Let's see what all of you think about this! Of course you're also welcome to post your
thoughts here as replies. But the voting count will only happen with form (I'm too lazy to go through mails and try to find the proper answers).
Thanks for participating,
Dominique
