Looking good!

Gparted fails to see the hard disk (works fine when called from system menu)

I'll be interested to see how the panel behaves under xmonad :geek:

EDIT Amazingly, it works! the category icons don't appear, but never mind. However, I can only run it as root. I installed as root, but I think that's what I did on the 13.1 machine as well. Maybe it only runs as root there too - after all, if you call it from the menu rather than the console, it requests the root password. So that's probably normal.

@ djemos, oh thanks for testing in KDE !
Do the applications run correctly when launched from the panel?

@ mimosa,
I did notice that as well. It probably needs to be executed in a different way, I'll look into this. Tx for reporting.

Oops, Cups doesn't work here too, thanks for catching it.
Do you have any error messages about Sourcery or it just doesn't show up ? (which is the expected behavior)

I installed sourcery from svn after compile it.
But when i run setupcenter.py i get a message about sourcery icon does not included in theme?
Then i installed gtk-engines, gnome-icon,murrine-engines-system-printer-config and setupcenter.py run fine and also sourcery run through setupcenter. (control panel)

Then i removed all packages i had installed (system-printer-config, gtk-engines etc)
And tried to run again (kdesu /usr/sbin/setupcenter.py) and :) run fine and sourcery run also.
Only manage printing dont run.
salix-control-center run fine from the kde menus also.

I dont understand why did not run at once. Maybe packages i had installed even i removed them after, left something behind need by sourcery or salix-control-center ?

I'm not sure either, but one thing that seems recurrent is a missing icon problem... I'll try to find a better solution to handle this.
Thanks for the feedback.

I have been able to resume work on setupcenter lately.

gparted, cups, etc, work fine now. Missing default icons or utilities should be handled as well.

I also added a new configuration section for category settings in the preferences dialog box:
Image

I basically need to complete that part and allow multiple instance of program executions and we should be done.

New packages for testing:
http://people.salixos.org/akuna/testing ... h-1plb.txz

Still left to do:
- Category Icon selection in preferences.
- Multi-tasking

Will come back to it after LiveClone is upgraded to SaLT.

In the meanwhile, thanks for your testing reports.
