Hi,
Though I have been running some factory packages for a while, I just managed to do a full GNOME install of 11.3 on a bare metal and below are some feedback.
- Login time is amazing. It seemed almost instantaneous since the moment I clicked on Login in GDM and the panel appeared with background loaded
- Logout OTOH seem to take a lot more time than what it took with 11.2 In fact everytime when I select logout from gnome-do's menu, it takes atleast 10 seconds till I get my GDM screen (4G RAM machine)
No idea why this would happen.
- I tried installing "Google Chrome". I downloaded the rpm and clicked on it to be installed by "Install/Remove software". There were some missing dependencies (libjpeg, lsb) and "Install software" did not complain about the missing packages. It just went on infinitely moving the progress bar. So I had to cancel that and resume the installation from terminal (which is how I came to know of the missing packages)
This is probably the same as https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=615567
We'll have an online update for PackageKit after 11.3 is out, and that should fix it. See the PackageKit package in home:sreeves1:test_branch.
- Sonar icon theme is not installed by default (installed my system from the live-cd) (Isnt sonar the default theme ?)
Sonar is the default GTK+ theme, but not the default icon theme. There was not enough size on the livecd (now there is, but it's too late).
If I select themes from the right-click menu on desktop, I see an error message: The selected theme will not work properly as the corresponding icon set is not installed (or) some error message on these lines. It kind of appears bad if we show such an error for a default install. I (and many others I believe) have been using sonar-icon theme and it will be nice if we can get it packaged.
- There is a lot of screen flickering during booting. Atleast 3 times, the screen goes colourless (not blank) with only busy mouse pointer shown. This flickering instead of showing the splash screen and gdm screen, is a usability problem.
I guess having some plymouth love during the next cycle would help.
Last but not the least, booting is fast.
