Modules:

If I open darktable directly, select a raw file on the lighttable panel, 
and go to the darktable panel, "More modules" doesn't have any modules 
listed.

If I right-click on a raw file and open it with darktable, "More 
modules" has all the modules listed.

If I then go to lighttable, select an image, and go back to darkroom, 
"More modules doesn't have any modules listed.


Exposure:

There doesn't seem to be any way to enter a precise number (eg "1.00", 
"2.00") for setting exposure. The slider works, but it's not easy to 
stop on an exact value (for example, I can get "2.02" but not "2.00"). 
Right-clicking doesn't bring up the option to directly enter a number.

When trying to use the little drop-down graphical exposure arc/curve, I 
end up resetting the white balance to "camera".

Auto-exposure drastically overexposes the image, even when percentage of 
pixels to clip is set to 0.

I can't figure out how to use the histogram to set exposure. The 
exposure does change. But I can't see what I'm dragging or how far I'm 
dragging it, and I don't see any relationship between the actual 
histogram and the dragging action.

System:

I'm running up-to-date 64-bit Gentoo Linux and Darktable 1.2.3 from 
Gentoo portage. My "desktop" is Icewm, with the minimal amount of 
gnome/gtk to get Gimp to run, plus the minimal amount of kde/qt to get 
digiKam and Krita to run.
