Its broken for those who use openoffice and numerous other applications |
| 2 |
that use the transparency option. In OO, most of the icons have a black |
| 3 |
background, and some slides in the presentation client are also affected |
| 4 |
for me. As I use my gentoo laptop to give presentations its a show |
| 5 |
stopper. (When I first loaded it up, it looked OK, but then when I |
| 6 |
loaded the presentation in public it became "what OS is that - god its |
| 7 |
ugly ..., why dont you use ..." - nothing like a public fiasco to drive |
| 8 |
home gentoo's shortcomings :( ) |

Ive fixed it for my self (as Ive previously described), but what about |
| 11 |
the new or average user which is why I originally brought it up? My |
| 12 |
needs are covered, its "gentoo" itself that I think is being |
| 13 |
shortchanged. |

In any case, this is getting even further off-topic for the security |
| 16 |
list. Check the bug. |
