BLAG50001 coming...

I'm going to respin the CD images with the new kernel that was just released.

If you have any other MINOR tweaks you think should be done, let me know soon. :)

I don't want to do anything major for this release, but a touch here & there would be fine...

-how about automount partitions (fat32 & ntfs...) ?

Maybe it doesn't qualify as minor... I did the automount following the wiki, and it worked fine for my 2 fat32 partitions, but I could not manage my ntfs partition...

Besides that, all is perfect down here in Wonderland, so I can't think of anything else right now...

;o)

It looks like gpodder doesn't have an icon in any theme except for the default one. Could you import that icon into the other themes? Or does it have an icon that should appear but doesn't for some reason?

The gpodder icon is called gpodder.png

If other themes don't have an icon for it, well, they'll just have to make one. There isn't really a way to do it other than to copy the blag gpodder.png icon into the other themes.

Jebba,

It looks like the only theme that uses a custom icon for gpodder is blagCayon. All of the other themes should use the default icon. It looks like the folder where themes go to look for default icons is /usr/share/pixmaps, but the gpodder icon is not there. I solved the problem by logging in as su -, then doing this:

Thank you, Contents, as I did just like you indicated, and I have a nice little icon now !

That's awesome, Caraibes! I've only been fiddling around with linux for about two months now, and this is the first time I'VE actually showed someone ELSE how to do something. Wohoo! I will count this as a major achievement!

Here's a nice thread about rt2x00 support in NetworkManager:

I haven't seen anyone package it up yet. ATrpms would be most likely to do it--perhaps open a bugzilla "Request for Enhancement" there. :)

What wireless PCMCIA cards are in the Fedora mainline kernel??

These are the various included driver. Which real world card they match to is tough to know because vendors are known to switch chipsets entirely in the same make/model.

-do these drivers also work with the USB wireless adapters ?

Those little "wireless cards" that look like usb pendrive... They are very convenient for laptops... For older laptops that don't have onboard wireless cards...
