Gnomes user manual shows screenshots and descriptions of browsing the
network places "Windows computers" and "Unix computers".
I only see Windows computers. I tried to fiddle around in gnome-vfs
config-files, ... but I never got nfs-browsing to work.
That's because the module isn't built by default, because the person
that wrote it knows that it contains data corruption bugs. It's broken,
NFS is broken.
>> - enhancing the gui for extended keyboards
Most keyboards and laptop do have extra keys fort starting applications
or changing the speaker-volume.
Getting them to work is, in my opinion, non-obvious and sure to
complicated to an average user.
Go to the keyboard shortcuts, assign keys, it works. And if it doesn't,
it's a bug somewhere, and you should file a bug.
Not sure what's complicated about it (although, when the keyboard is
detectable, and a keymap exists, it would be nice if it selected the
keymap automatically...)
