  • Start Here and add @SIG@ to the end of your post so we know who you are. It will look like this -> -- nixternal DateTime(2007-08-08T16:41:57Z)

  • OpenOffice.org doesn't start ... gets stuck at about 80% of splash... that blows; other than that awesome! -- Andrea54 09.08.2007 17:10:45

  • OO starts, but as soon as you open an existing document it hangs -- katakombi

  • The installer still gives the Netherlands keyboard-layout when choosing Dutch (Nederlands) as your language. This should be US International with dead-keys. Please fix this! -- Jeroen69 DateTime(2007-08-09T16:50:31Z)

  • Like usually, I tested this GutsyTribe4 on my ASUS A6Q007H Laptop using the x86_32 LiveCD :

    • It took a very long time to boot and reach the Kubuntu Desktop, compared to previous alpha versions (???)

    • When using all OpenGL screensaver setup, Xorg crashes. (since Tribe2 at least).

    • there is no tools to manage grub settings for boot. I think it is really missing and should be included in System Settings panel (advanced tab, for example).
    • Reboot does work now, but I had the following message during reboot : usplash: no useable theme found for 640x480
    • the security tab of settings:/Security/ of KDE Configuration should also be linked to your System settings panel. It is also missing I think. Since Kubuntu is supposed to be a true-KDE distribution, it would be nice to link most of KDE Settings menus to Kubuntu System settings.
    • Dolphin's nice, but the "sort-by-type" display option is missing I think. Besides Dolphin isn't the default filemanager, despite what is said in the Tribe3 announcement
    • Trying to launch Open Office occupied all CPU capacity (AMD Turion MT34 on my laptop).

    • Adept Batch crashed when I tried to select bcm43xx in the Restricted Drivers section of System settings while being offline. (signal 6 SIGBRT given by KDE Crash Handler).

    • Verify that System settings and its sub-menus properly resize when their windows are opened, because sometimes we can't reach easily the lowest part of the windows (this problem is already in Feisty). For Tribe 4, I have a good example : Launch System Settings, click on Regional & Language, and then go back to the initial windows using Overview : it keeps the large format of Regional & language whereas the icons occupy only half of the window....

    • Power manager doesn't offer Suspend and Resume like it used to in previous alpha versions (and it was indeed working : at least suspend2RAM).

    • The system seemed generally less responsive than previous alpha versions.
    • Conclusion ? Pretty worried about how things can change so badly from one testing version to another... Good luck //Nikoo, August 9nd 2007
