P.S.

"Assistive Technologies" is autostarting... It is not in sessions... and I did not place it anywhere... Could it be gdm? How to turn it off?

I posted that on my blog, unfortunaltely in italian. Go to keyboard preferences, and in the accessibility tab disable the autostart wink

Re: gnome unstable repository

@ammon - I don't use pidgin so I can't confirm but speaking of icons, has anyone else noticed that nothing under the System menu has an icon?  I can't do a screenshot of an active menu, but basically the menu looks like:

Preferences >
Administration >
---
Help
About Gnome
---
Lock Screen
Log Out User...
Shut Down...

Under 2.26, an icon preceded each of these items.

Great job... but what's wrong with Epiphany and java-plugin? Java plugin does not work for me in Epi@Webkit.

It's a 2.28 default setting
Look under System >> Preferences >> Appearance >> Interface

Re: gnome unstable repository

Actually lack of icon is to standardize, because previously not all apps had icons, and rather than hunt down all the offending apps, easier to present a standard no-icon view, AFAICR.

Perhaps it's my imagination, but 2.28 feels a little faster than 2.26 did to me.

Placebo? I haven't really noticed it, but I was really waiting for evo 2.28 due to the better mapi plugin (which I have to self-compile with patches, but its much more stable now and supports Exchange address books well).

Re: gnome unstable repository

I'm not sure if this was already covered, but my /media/disk-n directories I used to get if I plugged an external drive into my computer are gone now. Instead I see something like "/media/3230C61230D61AA6", which isn't very useful because I configured several programs (e.g. mpd) with the /media/disk path. Andy ideas how to switch back to the old behaviour?

Re: gnome unstable repository

Still problems with writing on ntfs flash drives, devicekit-disks uses ntfs kernel module (wich should have rw support but won't let me write anything on the flash drive) instead ntfs-3g. Is there a workaround?
