-.-), there are a few things that were annoying me or are still doing
it:
-* kaffeine-1.0~pre is not even as useful as 0.8.7 from jaunty: While
- staying in touch with the main KDE (4) line, the developers seemed to
- completely remove the Playback -> Video menu, so it is not possible
- anymore to toggle deinterlacing, or any other video filter, which is
- very annoying for DVB-T. I filed a [bug report][1] on that.
- Futhermore, my DVB-T channels were lost, so I had to rescan them.
-
-* The notifications displayed by notify-osd somehow have wandered from
- the upper right edge towards the middle right. This seems to be fixed
- now, as pointed out in the [bug report][2], but somehow this fix never
- got onto my system, though the changelog of notify-osd says so…
- Additionally, the notifications for received messages in Pidgin do not
- hide anymore if I actually read the messages, they persist until their
- default timeout has elapsed. And they even show up now when my IM
- status is on “Do not Disturb” – this was not the case (just as I
- expected it) in jaunty.
-
-* Icons in GTK menus are now hidden by default, which seemed very
- unfamiliar to me, since I always used them as an orientation guide,
- especcially in the Firefox search plugin menu. You can show them again
- in the System -> Preferences -> Appearance applet on the Interface tab
- by selecting “Show icons in menus”.
-
-* GDM is no longer custumizable through themes. It just doesn’t support
- it, as it seems to be a [complete rewrite][3]. IMHO just another
- Unmature Software Thing.

- **Edit:** I just found out that it is also not able to start GDM in
- Xnest, as I usually did for testing:
-
- $ gdmflexiserver --xnest
- ** (gdmflexiserver:5916): WARNING **: Not yet implemented
-
-* And finally, my customized GNOME window theme (based on Clearlooks)
- was broken :-( I am very confident that the color of selected text was
- not the same color in the title bar, but now both seem to be the same
- color. This is really bad, as for the title bar, I used to have a
- darker shade of orange than for selected text. OK, changing to another
- theme may be simple, but until now, I haven’t found anything I like
- best.
