works, BUT: The owner and group of /etc/udev/rules.d/90-libgphoto2.rules
should be root:root (actually it is 1000:users...
Need to be adjusted that way:
chown root:root /etc/udev/rules.d/90-libgphoto2.rules

Other than that, on my machine xfburn *always* hangs when opening blank
disk, burn ISO or burn dialog
Also printing from mousepad is impossible because the default printer is
not showing up in xfprint dialog.
Firefox sometimes hangs (same behavior as xfburn) on exit selecting
saving setting, this happens only randomly
cdrecord is not set UID root, thus burning as normal user doesn't work
chmod 4755 /usr/bin/cdrecord
will fix it. ;)
Hostname and domain is applied now, but: The default nominus kwort.org
entry is NOT removed from /etc/hosts, should be fixed!
Same if you trying to set the hostname and domain *again* it just adds
the new entry, bud doesn't *remove* the old one, should be fixed!

Hahaha, yeah, I know, it is because I did it with my user and I forgot
to change it :-)
Btw, I've been using Linux for 13 years, I know how to change permissions ;-)

Well, mmmmm, ehhh, mmmmmmmmm. I will compile graveman and put it in
the mirror from the same day the final iso is released so people can
use it.

Have you started cups? Is the printer registered in cups?

I guess it is a bug in firefox (I hope chromium be out soon)

Yeap, forgot to change it the other day when you told me. (Same above
about changing permissions, I know).

What? that domain doesn't exists by default in /etc/hosts

I'm fixing it right now. Thanks.

LOL, I am shure you know how to change permissions, I just put that line
to avaoid missunderstandings in my explaination, because the code should
be explain better what I was saying. ;)

Graveman also doesn't work. :(

It's only happens randomly, so you can forget about it, maybe special on
my system.

No big issue, I know.
Thanks.

The default entry exists, but it should be *removed* when changing the
hostname via network config tool because otherwise you will have two
entries for 127.0.0.1 in /etc/hosts

Thanks. Also I figured out that the order of hostname and full qualified
host/domainname is in wrong order it should be
127.0.0.1 hostname.domainame hostname
but your tools sets it
127.0.0.1 hostname hostname.domainame
That is causing the command
hostname -f to only display
hostname instead of hostname.domainname (you know hostname -f should
give out the full qualified name), which could lead to some problems,
e.g. for sendmail that can't get the FQDN from hosts in this case...
So please also change the order of how network config puts entries in
/etc/hosts to avaoid this kind of problem and to comply with standards. ;)
Other than that Kwort is ready to go final. ;)
Br,
P.S. How did you fixed the gigolo issue? I need to know to fix it on my
ZW system as well. ;)

Please don't replace Firefox! It is still the most compatible and
fullfeatured Browser for Linux.
Also chromium from google has big security issues, is less compatible
with different websites, there are no plugins available and...
it will collect personal data to regualry report to google! using that
means you will make your internetusage and computing transparent to
google- that should be avoided.
Please, please *NEVER* remove or replace Firefox from the standard kwort
ISO!
Thanks!

This was "one" of the issues... I have it already fixed.
Also, see that changing the hostname/domain of the system while logged
in X will make you to restart X (As it can't connect to the old system
name anymore).

Check /etc/skel (I made a small config for gigolo to use unix volume
manager) and also see that /etc/fstab has the cdrom line as the floppy
one not commented.

I have one: Bashburn ;p
But don't worry graveman is not developed anymore, that's why it may
hardly work in newer environments.
And the xfburn issue seems to only happen on my system, so it shouldn't
be a show stopper for Kwort final. After releasing the ISO we could try
the newest snv version and provide this as an update and see if it fixes
things.
BTW: I tried to install subversion but it complains about missing
libapr2, do you know which dep package I am missing? I couldn't find
out in which package this lib is included it's definitly not installed
in the default kwort system...

You can send me the package/script and I will test it on my system as
well, I think for this issue it's not necessary to have another RC ISO. ;)

Ah, but this way mount points will not be handled by HAL, right?
Anyway it works, good.
Just please send me the fixed network config tool and if the hostname
setup passes on my system as well you have my go to release 2.4.1 final. ;)

the xfburn issue is not a bug of kwort, as I confirmed the same problem
happens on the same system for xfburn from Arch linux. So it's xfburn or
xfce4.6 related...
Since this seems to be not happen on your system, I don't think this
will be a show stopper, you can ship out Kwort 2.4.1 final with xfburn
since this app is the best choice for now...

I fixed it with a more sanity solution...
I spoke to the gigolo author and he told me he wrapped the exo-mount
into a gnome-mount script this week after I asked him for a solution
(cool guy :-D).
This way is "the fix" and it is a lot better.
