[opensuse-gnome] GNOME 3 initial USB stick evaluation image
Hi all, to help GNOME 3 progress, I've worked on a GNOME 3 USB image to allow everybody to easily test GNOME3 without touching their system : http://susegallery.com/a/zksD5W/gnome-3 This is a first image, based on GNOME 2.91.5 and openSUSE 11.3 (so, the main distribution will be stable : this should help discovering bugs in GNOME 3 stack and not mix them with Factory bugs :) This is rough image, quite incomplete (very few applications installed to reduce its size) but it should work out of the box. Please, report any issue you found with it. One of the next steps will be to move this image to OBS, so people will be able to download it without SUSE Studio account and it should also help me to generate image.

Frederic, It is somehow important to start preaching a bit about this tiny things... though this is a development snapshot, could you please make a small text (or re-use the one from this email) and make a blog post syndicated to the Planet and maybe a small post on the Forums? This is interesting for many reasons, one of them is GNOME3, which we can start already making the community aware of it and pushing some 'hot' stuff towards them, thus raising expectations. Nelson.

New version is now available, on both SUSE Studio and OBS.

This works really well! One thing that tripped me for a second - the screensaver kicked in, but "linux" is the password to unlock it. Other than that, it's perfect. I need wireless drivers, but that's life. Thanks a lot for putting this together; it really makes it easy to get an idea of what Gnome 3 feels like.
