Hi,
I wonder if it's possible to keep track of time whilst booting, I feel
this should be possible even if accurate progress or even the amount
of work to complete is not known.
Maybe then there could be some weighted average of the time taken to boot.
This would allow a time based animation tha
For the record, none of the Fedora users I'm close to use Firefox,
they all use Chrome. For them at least the Firefox start page is a
wasted effort.
I'd imagine a sizable proportion of Fedora users would be in the same position.

Hi,
For the record, in Gnome 2 / Fedora 14, wasn't there a Fedora logo on
the main menu? I say this because I had to add a menu to the panel
after a fumbling session by an inexperienced user, which removed the
menu entirely. When I replaced the menu it had a Gnome foot logo on it
instead of the Fe

I think this is wrong:

That assumes that there is such a thing as 'better' when really it's
subjective. X might be better for Fedora, Y might be better for Gnome
and either might be equally good for a user!

Then if it's not sufficiently important to ask a user, it probably
isn't worth deliberating further.
Toss a coin or something? Provide a random default?
I wish there was more focus to package up and present alternative
themes than to provide a single look for each release. I'm thinking
that I get

I wonder what the 'correct' pronunciation is... it's tempting to read
it as Laugh-lin (joke distribution) :)
loff-lin?
lor-lin?
laff-lin?

Are there any notes on how to hack Plymouth animations, it would be
interesting to try to put something together.
Ideally I suppose there could be a common bit of software that could
be part of a screensaver or part of a boot animation / animated login
splash screen.
For rocket imagery I really l
