new spin compose / fix to favourites

[Ian Malone]

Hi,

I've committed a change that should fix the problem of the install
option still showing up on the installed system that Edward Borasky
found. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=883367
A new compose is at
http://imalone.fedorapeople.org/Fedora-Jam-64bit-20121205.iso this
also includes the changes Jørn made in response to Christoph Wickert's
suggestions. We no longer have our own theme set automatically :(
still, there are rules, we have to play by them.

Will see if I can add anything to the Jack/Pulse stuff on the wiki
this weekend, was holding off while I tried to figure out if anything
would be likely to be different to previously, but it seems not.

Thanks for doing that! It's god to see some enthusiasm for the spin. We 
are this [ ] close to having the spin approved now, and if we all cross 
our finger swe might just make it for f18

The themes should apply automaticly in the near future. The part of the 
kickstart that enabled the theme by default has been moved to the 
fedora-jam-theme package, so when the updated theme package goes into 
updates/stable it should work again.

I'm testing the kickstart file at the moment; so far everything looks good.

Enable updates-testing in my local compose
from yesterday resulted in 
the default theme applied with these changes. We just need to get it 
into updates-stable. It should meet the requisite time spent in testing 
soon but leaving extra karma can't hurt:

I tried realTimeConfigQuickScan with the current spin ISO and there
were a couple of issues that it flagged. I'm not on that machine at
the moment but I can get back to it later tonight. Still, there does
not appear to be *any* CPU frequency / performance governor package in
either Fedora 17 or Fedora 18. You have to poke the values manually as
'root' into the /proc filesystem as far as I can tell. The same goes
for "swappiness", another parameter that realTimeConfigQuickScan
flagged on my machine.

I'll go ahead and file a documentation bug against
realTimeConfigQuickScan when I get back to my machine.

Its handled by cpupower now in Fedora. realTimeConfigQuickScan should be 
easy enough to patch to detect its presence and display a message 
regarding that I would have thought. I can look into it if you like.

Last time I checked, cpupower was in Fedora 16 but not in 17 or 18
because of a lack of maintainer commitment. If I had a system with F16
and upgraded it to 17, would the upgrade remove cpupower?

Looks like cpupower has been moved into kernel-tools. Good catch. We 
will want to add this too the spin. I'll update the wiki

Thanks Ian!

I'm trying really hard to get this into the nightlies so hopefully we 
won't need another one. I don't think there will be any pulls into 
stable that affect us before release anyhow. Everything from here will 
be zero-day updates.

Yes, I thought it would be worth having one that corresponded to a
Final TC. I've just checked and there are no audio component
blockers/NTH (unless you count one rhythmbox crash, but we don't
include it).
