openSUSE 12.1 RC1 Part 2

Okay, so I remembered wrong. The messages on a feed are just like OS X from under the title bar.



Also it comes up as the wrong size when I add a repository with an untrusted GPG key, but it's re-sizable so the buttons are still accessible.

I also found the slightly easier way to remove the icons from the favourites bar. If you hold onto an icon long enough, the trash can appears at the bottom of the favourites bar. Unfortunately, the easiest way to do this is to drag the icon off to the right of the favourites bar (almost like you want to open it) and while still hanging onto it, it'll appear. Slightly easier than right-clicking the icon and selecting the remove from favourites on the menu.

I have yet to test the power button to shut down. Right now I'm in 12.1, so I'll have to test that out and comment again when I get into 11.3.

Oh, one of the things I didn't mention is that I have to switch on the Wifi every boot. Dunno why, but a tad annoying. I thought it was the acer-wmi problem I had before, but blacklisting it in 50-blacklist.conf didn't do anything about it.

I think it was just me doing a lot of stuff when the fan kicked on higher, seeing that it hasn't done so yet.

I found the way to kick-up the notification bar, it's the bottom right corner, but kinda pointless to do so when there aren't any notifications.

Oh, one of the nice things about the notification bar is that it has a spot for mounted volumes (I think mainly for flash drives and not internal hard drive partitions), so you can click on it to dismount volumes. Particularly useful when Nautilus is not managing the desktop.

That's all I can think of for now. I'll comment again when I test out what the power button does since I haven't seen an option anywhere for it.
