FC3T2 candidate

I finally installed the test candidate and found X not working, avc
errors, general features that I consider bothersome. With this messages,
I wanted to relay attached avc errors, xorg-x11 errors etc. I won't but
will files a bug report with the files soon.

As a general problem. I could not install using the GUI mode. My screen
would change to graphics mode, then hang. After installation, X has the
problem with the refreshing of the screen w/ the selected version of
xorg-x11. This is as described by another person using the 815 driver.
The screen has stripes from left to right, then some portions appear on
the screen. You have to hover a mouse over menu items in order to launch
anything. Also not all screen elements appear on applications that you
launch.
Also, using my binary driver approach and replacing the i810 driver w/ a
previous version driver, this one from my fc2 installation, a reboot is
needed for the older driver to work as it should.

Aggravations are the "add to panel" and large icons being displayed
instead of a menu choice to navigate through the stock menu choices.
Having to scroll down a list with big ICONs is not my preference. After
adding a main menu choice to the new panel, things were normal. Also the
nautilus needing to be configured for browsing vs. nt4 style folders and
icons.
I am attaching the avc errors from first booting the computer from the
install. The errors are minor.

Hopefully the X problem can be resolved from past the testing. The other
problems are a matter of user tastes.

Beware of the idedisk, usbdisk and other icons on your desktop. They are
handy, but are new. I find the icons for the mounting disk partitions
handy and useful. I like the concept. But with multiple disk types,
there could be many.

The type of install was workstation, no added programs and SELinux
enabled w/ targeted type. I burned ISOs for the CDROMs and the first and
forth disk errored at around 99 %. The burn was at maximum speed for my
burner type.

Instead of reburning the CDROMs, I just did a hard drive installation
from my ext3 dowloaded files directory. The actual installation went
through in less than a half hour w/ just over 3 gigs needed for the
actual installation.

I hope this is helpful,

Jim


PS - When trying to send messages, Evolution did not remember my choice of outgoing authentication.
This should have been remembered from the wizard answers given during first launch.
