I agree.  Great job!

One other thing - I never enable compositing because I don't have a fancy graphics card, but I tried it with gnome 2.22.  It looks good!  Even with the vesa graphics driver!

praka...I wouldn't be too worried about trying it. It is extremely stable. I use it on my desktop, and it is great.

Re: gnome 2.22 (testing): wow

Someone said in another thread that it feels slower than 2.20 does (at least on his/her machine).

Just curious... does it feel slower to you guys?

I don't usually run stuff from testing so haven't tried it myself, but I was really hoping for more speed rather than less.

Thanks for your opinions.

Speedwise I didn't really notice anything different. Nautilus is faster because of gfs. That's it.

Re: gnome 2.22 (testing): wow

is there a gnome group package in testing? I can't seem to be able to install 2.22 by pacman -S testing/gnome

@NoOneImportant
Installing a group doesn't seem to be available when you specify the repo that way.  Either move [testing] to before [core] in your pacman.conf (which will draw in the whole testing repo - I can understand why you might not want to), or do a
pacman -Sg gnome
to get the names of the individual packages.  Then do
pacman -S testing/metacity
etc for the individual packages.

There may be a simpler way to do it, but that's how I would.
