Systemload works ok.

Mount also works, though it seems somewhat different from in VL6. I don't know why it shows gvfs.fuse.daemon mounted - is this something to do with mounting? I also note that the cdrom and cdburner don't show now until they are mounted - is this because mounting is handled in a different way now?

Cheers
Andy

It may be because the hal daemon is not running by default.  I'll look into it.

Hal is deprecated as of xfce-4.8 (and KDE 4.6, IIRC). It has been replaced by udisk and upower, plus some direct udev handling for other stuff.

Thanks for testing I'll tend to these.

OK, there are two ways I can fix this...
1. Simply remove the exo from the slack-required file as it is part of the base install.
or
2. Add exo-0.6.0 to the repo ( I have it built and ready to go.)

If I don't here from anyone on why option #2 is a terrible idea, I'll go with that.  At least that way a person and re-install exo if they were to have a problem with it.

No harm to have more apps in the repo. I vote for the option 2. :)
