how does one edit the menu in FC16?
by Todd And Margo Chester 26 Feb '12

26 Feb '12

Hi All, I am going out to a customer next week that I installed FC16 Xfce 64 bit from the Live CD on last week. To my horror, in FC16, Alacarte does not work: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=734442 And, lxmed has "another instance running". Okay, http://lxmed.sourceforge.net/ has since said he has fixed that error. Very frustrating. So, I thought I'd ask you guys what your preferred method of editing the menu is. Any thoughts? Someone said this might work: https://github.com/efruchter/Gnome3_AppMenuEditor/downloads Many thanks, -T

Fedora 17 Alpha desktop validation needed
by Adam Williamson 21 Feb '12

21 Feb '12

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. -- Adam Williamson Fedora QA Community Monkey IRC: adamw | Twitter: AdamW_Fedora | identi.ca: adamwfedora http://www.happyassassin.net

by Frank Murphy 20 Feb '12

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. -- Regards, Frank "Jack of all, fubars"

Have pragha replace quodlibet? (was Re: [spin-kickstarts] xfce: Drop quodlibet for now until we can sort out dep issues.)

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 Regards, Christoph
