The clipboard related issues are known and are being worked on. I believe we have had them for the whole development cycle, not just post build 8. They are introduced by the underlying technological shift to GTK3 technologies, so it is not a trivial fix or something that we can just revert to fix it. It will be fixed before the final release is made though - we're making progress. If you are seeing other problems, especially ones that have only appeared after build 8, we'd very much appreciate further emails describing them. > Switching over to the Gnome interface also failed to delight: I can't hide > the > bars at the top and bottom of the screen by right-clicking as I could in the > past, and choosing on "Change Desktop Background" after right-clicking on the > desktop did nothing. The customization of some GNOME components has indeed decreased a bit in the last few years, especially in the "GNOME fallback" mode that we run. Some of the panel customizations can be restored by holding Alt and right clicking. Perhaps not ideal, I know. I don't think we were aware of the "Change Desktop Background" problem, so I've filed http://dev.laptop.org/ticket/12399 to look at it later. As for the I and L issue on XO-1.5, we're aware and have almost fixed it. http://dev.laptop.org/ticket/12354 Thanks again for the feedback. If there are other problems that you've encountered but haven't described, please send followup emails letting us know.
