Actually i have todays git checkout running on rawhide and it wfm. What would certainly help is a list of issues and a goalsetting what really has to be achieved to be able to enable it as default without having too much breakage. A working noveau driver that does aiglx fine and the r500 driver imported into rawhide (and push it towards reliability with aiglx) would for sure a neat first step in achieving the goal that it works for most users out there. Just as a sidenote: akamaru and kiba-dock would also be a neat addition as eye candy and show off panel ;) And as for testing setups i think i really need to file a feature request in gnome-session-manager to be able to save and restore session profiles. That would also help with experimenting with different panels/apps/setups while beeing able to restore defaults easily and switch between various setups without too much hassle. regards, Rudolf Kastl -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
