Archive Manager fails to unpack ISOs.
It seems File roller (The archive manager in cinnamon) can unpack ISOs.
Ed_P, could you explain please? The link for your reference is here:
http://forum.porteus.org/viewtopic.php?t=7342&start=15 Thanks.
BTW,
raja, if you still think file roller is ineffective in unpacking ISOs I would be happy to add isomaster. We decided not to do so in our debug channel.

File name does not get highlighted on "rename".
Yes, also noted by
Ed_P. The problem is because of Adwaita theme. This is the reason why Evo Vertex theme (proposed by
Blaze) has also been included in cinnamon (change to this theme and you will not have this problem). By rc2, I will raise the question again as to which theme should be the default one.

You may love to eliminate all those useless 'cinnamon warning messages' during shutdown.
Yes, and maybe it would please you to be aware that
fulalas and I have discussed and actually removed a lot of these warnings on all desktops. By the way, these warnings are not coming during shutdown. Press Ctrl-Alt-F1 and you will see that they are already there. It is just that when you shutdown, these warning messages are shown, as the gui and the system shuts down.
Also, if you see some GTK warnings, these are because linux mint (and hence cinnamon) are still on the old LTS ubuntu and hence on an older gtk3, while slackware current is already on the latest gtk3. When ubuntu and hence linux mint (and hence cinnamon) jumps to the next LTS this April, they wouls also be on the latest (and final) gtk3, whch might eliminate more warnings regarding gtk3.

Thanks again for your info on getting the 'config' file. My custom kernel is working fine, with support for 'touchpad'.
Yes, and a very good job as well at that. Well done
