[e-users] can't make new launchers in IBAR
No matter what I do in the ibar I can't make new application launchers/icons in the ibar. I put in the name, the icon name, the executable name, hit apply and then exit and nothing happens. What do I have to do to make new app launchers on the ibar?? This shouldn't be this hard. This has been this way for multiple versions and never fixed or EXPLAINED in this mailing list. Why? What the hell does it take to get this so a regular user can set up a proper desktop the way they want it? What use is the menu items "ibar > create new icon"? I have even made my own .desktop files to try to get the launchers on the ibar but enlightenment won't pick them up out of the directory. Also I have tried for the last 3 versions to get help with my volume keys on the keyboard but so far no one has bothered to answer my questions on that. This is supposed to be the enlightenment mailing list where help is supposed to be available but so far, even with the developer being on this list, I have yet to get any help with this desktop. I just continue to upgrade with each version that comes out hoping that something changes and improves but nothing changes or improves, just the same old problems, same old bugs, same old crap. This would be a great desktop if it worked properly but it seems the only things that are important is getting Wayland working. Yeah buddy let's work on wayland and screw the rest of the desktop. Here's what we got for the last upgrade announcement: HIGHLIGHTS * Greatly improved Wayland support * New gadget infrastructure * Wizard improvements * Video backgrounds CHANGES SINCE BETA * Wayland DMA buffer support * Wayland session recovery * New DRM subsystem * Various crash fixes/additions 50% Wayland announcements, which really doesn't make a tinkers damn in the usability of the Enlightenment desktop. 50% Wayland and the rest of the upgrades don't make another tinker's damn, DRM subsystem, no help, Gadgets improvements, no help, Wizard improvements, what's that? Video backgrounds, no help. Let's fix the basic usability of the desktop. Yeah, I know, I'm an asshole. But after years and years of trying to use something that is a major fail and trying and trying to get help and seeing another fail, I'm at the point where I'm truly frustrated. Yeah, I know, it's free and so do you and since this has been distributed free for so long I come to the conclusion that you may want to know what a normal, loyal user's impression is of the desktop. I have been using Enlightenment since before E17 and I have upgraded every version since and I have always ended up going back to e16, But I'm at the point where I have to leave E16 because Terminology doesn't work properly with E16 now because of terminology looking for some crap that E16 doesn't have. I get errors and can't start it in full screen mode. Well, you can kick me off the mailing list and scream profanities at me now and tell me what an asshole I am for expressing my opinions.

[e-users] Still having the same problem with sound
In Enlightenment-0.21.0-rc I'm still having the same problem with the keyboard volume keys on the keyboard operating all the mixer controls ie: < Master >Headphon PCM Front Front Mi Front Mi Surround Center etc instead of just the Master Volume. Is there no way to solve this? Thanks -- What NetFlow Analyzer can do for you? Monitors network bandwidth and traffic patterns at an interface-level.
