IMHO, that would be nice, but it would require some big changes in the way that emblem works (i.e. it would be more than just a background selector).

Personally, I don't really mind how Gnome really is right now. It would be a great destop for me to reccomend to my friends who can't stand any level of complexity, but e17 is a very different animal. When I see people talking about 'usability' and 'linux' usually they mean something like 'how do we make linux look like MS Windows' (or OSX). Which is tragic because the Windows/OSX desktop paradigm is not the only way to make a gui. e17 is a windows manager with a couple of applications, it caters to a fairly specific niche. To try and make it into a desktop I think would be a mistake, and I have the feeling that that is the first thing that any 'usability' study would try to do. > > ..... > > Another suggestion: Would be great if the battery module could use hal > to access battery info. to be quicker. IMO, that would be a nice idea, but only if the user has hal, don't make it a requirement because not everyone needs or wants hal. > > greetings > fabian ------------------------------------------------------- SF.Net email is sponsored by: Tame your development challenges with Apache's Geronimo App Server.
