First impressions of the LiveCD desktop
We want it to be uncluttered, and to show off the coolest stuff in the most obvious way. To that end:
- do we need the SCIM module in the top right?
- do we need the Desktop search module in the top right?
For that matter - shouldn't we pre-populate the image with index data if we're going to include Beagle?
If there were an easy way to do so, it'd be worth considering but the data is per-user I believe. And the user is actually created at boot time.
- We need a default homepage for Firefox that isn't just the generic
firefox page.
IIRC this is coming (as with the "Welcome to Fedora Core 6!" page) soon. Although I'm not sure if we have/want a LiveCD specific one.
Personally, I'd prefer to keep them the same. Which means we should include a little bit that's about the live CD in the default page probably.
- "System->About Fedora" can't load properly due to missing about-fedora.xml
Again, I believe this is coming along with the bookmarks and Firefox start page.. Actually I thought we had a placeholder there now. Did it get dropped from the LiveCD?
For test3, we had to nuke /usr/share/docs so we'd fit on the CD which would have broken this. We've managed to make some other package tweaks to avoid having to do this in The Future (tm)
