The sources for icons are available at http://people.redhat.com/~glesage/artwork/Fedora/fedoracore2/icons/ Unfortunately, those are all in Adobe Illustrator format so is not possible to edit them in Linux (Inkscape can open certain versions of .ai files but not those, pstoedit can convert from AI to SVG but with flaws).

Currently we only have it in the context menu of gnome-power-manager's notification icon. That's not really a great spot for it, so where would a good spot for it be? The log out dialog isn't a good place for it--when you suspend you aren't logging out. Putting it in the Action/System menu makes a lot more sense. We just need a bug report for tracking it. If you want to write the report, that'd be great.

Maybe we could pick a new name for 'Logout'. I'm OK with putting it in the logout dialog since reboot and shutdown are there:-) But is it possible to enable 'Suspend the computer' in the logout dialog easily or do I need to patch say gdm?

Suspending is not a function of logging out; nor is the vice versa. When you resume from a suspend, you want your desktop session to be in the same state as you left it -- logged in, with all your applications the way you left them. A logout will clear your current session and all session services, and force you to log in once again almost as if you rebooted your machine. They are completely separate things.

Inside our network(LAN) if connect from one system to other thro ssh and start an gui application that application shows up in the client. This doesn't happen when i connect to server and start gui apps(says display not set). iptables runs in the server. Do i have to open any port for that?

I was only successful with Core 1 using a 2.4 kernel, and for a short period of time, at that. I remember having trouble getting the userspace tools to work correctly and for some reason the theme's paths were not being seen some times (I actually had a /usr/share/bootsplash/default theme which was actually symlink to several other themes, and a script executed in init 6 or 0, would change that to a different directory [other than default, of course]). As you point out, fbsplash or bootsplash would be lighter than a whole X session, and they also allow the use of pixmaps, animations and whatnot to be used directly on VC1. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.1 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Fedora - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFDhgHcXM+XOp70dwoRAloWAJ904c5EHSklPNSqCQF6oRvAUc6GDwCeLuxh gJfhfGhybODShK/mHxkfTok= =4+1S -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- From tuxkumar at gmail.com Sat Nov 26 05:35:47 2005 From: tuxkumar at gmail.com (Saravana Kumar) Date: Sat, 26 Nov 2005 11:05:47 +0530 Subject: X thro ssh References: <437B2C3E.1070205@redhat.com> <437A3DF1.5000702@prodigy.net.mx> <1132174136.31182.13.camel@weasel.turre.laiskiainen.org> <437C16CA.5010006@redhat.com> Message-ID: Rahul Sundaram wrote: > Hi > >>I am coming thro gmane and it says Discussions about desktop issues...
