Thanks for the quick response on that.

Sadly, I am only going to do the live session testcase for beta 2.  I'll
log my list of bugs against that so that they are on the record.

There has been no progress on my nautilus bug
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/unity-2d/+bug/945097 .  Without a
working file manager it seems pointless doing any further testing.  The
Ubuntu ISO shouldn't be released for PowerPC IMHO if nautilus doesn't
work.

I'm going to fail the live session testcase and log it as a critical
bug.  I don't know if this is correct, but there is no testcase that
specifically  checks if the core applications are working.

If the Lubuntu PowerPC guys have a bit of spare time, could they install
nautilus and gedit and see if they are working for them?  If it is a gtk
bug then it could affect some of there applications also?

Regards

Adam
