1. Add a percentage in the top bar to show how many of the total # of screens you are through.. for example. "... <-- Portage (54%) --> ..." Requested by vapier. 2. Separate out the USE flags into Local and Global because few people ever use the local flags. Make them tabs you can alternate between.. Global being the main tab. 3. Add the distcc box. 4. The usergroups should be checkboxes with values you can grab from gli-d 5. doscsi should be added if the drive with /boot or / is sd* before the bootloader screen. this allows the user to remove that value if they wish. 6. the "rc.conf" screen needs to be moved before the services screen. If the user selects a DISPLAY_MANAGER (not XSESSION), pre-check the xdm service. 7. related to above but going one step further, in the packages screen, if the user selects one of the window managers, make a popup that asks "Do you want to start X automatically on bootup?", if yes, select either gdm,kdm,xdm based on the choice of WM, and set xdm in services. 8. Rename the "..." in the URI broswer and stage/portage screens to "Browse ..." 9. Help windows made less etrociously ugly.
Update on the status of this bug: 1. Completed. 2. will be done in the make.conf rewrite. 3. will be done in the make.conf rewrite. 4. still pending. not hard to do i don't think. 5. Completed. 6. still pending. 7. still pending. 8. still pending. should not be hard to do. 9. not sure what needs to be done here.
Still remaining: 1) The usergroups should be checkboxes with values you can grab from gli-d 2) the "rc.conf" screen needs to be moved before the services screen. If the user selects a DISPLAY_MANAGER (not XSESSION), pre-check the xdm service. 3) related to above but going one step further, in the packages screen, if the user selects one of the window managers, make a popup that asks "Do you want to start X automatically on bootup?", if yes, select either gdm,kdm,xdm based on the choice of WM, and set xdm in services.
