Fedora 17 Alpha desktop validation needed
by Adam Williamson
Hey, folks. Sorry I didn't manage to send out any of these notifications
up till now, but we have an Alpha RC now which is looking pretty good so
far, and the Go/No-Go meeting is tomorrow, so if you could help do the
desktop validation tests for your desktops that'd be great.
The validation page with info and instructions is here:
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Test_Results:Fedora_17_Alpha_RC4_Desktop
Downloads are here:
http://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/alt/stage/17-Alpha.RC4/
John Dulaney has already done several of the tests (thanks John, if
you're reading!) and we have the necessary minimum coverage for
sign-off, but it's always good to cover all desktops and get the Beta /
Final tests done at Alpha stage so we know what's broken. So if you get
a minute to help out, please do! Thanks.

F17-Branched "Application Menu" icons name?
by Frank Murphy
Removed some apps using yumex.
The icons immediately when you click
"Application Menu" also disappeared.
All other icons ok.
I can't remember the rpm needed for reinstall.

How about replacing quodlibet with pragha?
I know pragha is not as powerful as quodlibet, e.g. it doesn't do
internet radio or and come with a standalone tagging application, but
there are some things I like about it:
* It's written in C and has a very lightweight memory footprint
(much unlike quodlibet, which is written in python).
* It's using GStreamer now, so it can be easily extended with
other codecs.
* It perfectly integrated with Xfce: Take a look at the settings
dialog and you'll see what I mean. It now even builds against
exo and supports saving playlists with the Xfce session.
* It supports hotkeys out of the box, we could drop the patches we
have for quodlibet in libxfceui4.
* It just reached 1.0.
What do you guys think? Is it mature enough? Can it compete with
quodlibet

xfce "software updates" /usrmove
by Frank Murphy
Got a pleasant suprise.
Got notified properly that updates were available.
A Grey coloured popup window. (probably my theme?)
/usrmove kvm_guest
