Hi,

this version looks very promising. Nm-applet is working fine. The LXDesign Theme is really a very cool clearlooks theme. Very good work !
Chromium is running its first run wizard if clicked. Perhaps we should ship a preconfigured version with bookmarks and set it as default browser (its telling me that it isn't yet). 
Hmm... acpi=off in the livecd boot parameters ? I guess a temporary fix due to hal removal isn't it ?
The next thing I noticed. There is currently no visible gnome-power-manager icon in the systray of the panel (as it is started automatically but I don't see any icon but can click on it I guess it is a panel problem). Next thing gpicview should it be in the panel menu under graphics ? (somehow the graphics submenu seems strange containing only 1 app) 
My XFMultimedia Keys for Volume up/down mute is not working (eeePC 701). xfce4-volumed should fix this or setting the keys in the openbox config and creating a script that does volume up/down and mute (if you don't want to have the fency notify-osd) 

The last thing that we might include (only a suggestion) is a tweaked /etc/sysctl.conf for Netbooks:
# Delay real write to disk
vm.dirty_writeback_centisecs=1500

is crucial for this. Making the system visually faster. 

Here a suggestion (also for all testers) set the panel size to 24 and the icon size to 22. This way the panel here (on eeePC 701) looks much better. 

Overall well made promising future with pcmanfm2 I hope ;)
