I think we need to fix > anaconda to make the default the f10/f11 keys to work well Well, here's the thing. ibooks have an extra button that powerbooks don't (or vice versa), the eject button. Since keyboards are different, a default won't work very well. We need to expose a UI to select which button much like Gnomes keyboard shortcut selector (press button for this function, instead of trying to figure out what keycode a button sends). Speaking of Gnome shortcuts, all of a sudden the apple key can't be used as a meta-mod, so it can't be used in combinations such as <apple>-left and <apple>-right or other things such as that. I think this isn't just a ppc thing because the windows key in x86 can't be used in the same manner. This is a change from FC2 and it annoys the crap out of me as I have to re-learn a lot of keyboard shortcuts I had set up. Fixing this on PPC would have the echo effect of fixing it on x86 and that's not bad (: > > Any work to make video-out function would be VERY nice.
