Now they work much better.- Also, our hands added big chunk of code to SimpleWelcome, TimeFrame and RocketBar.- Improver, Sphere and Sync work like a charm. OK, almost like a charm, but they work!- ATI and NVidia proprietary drivers have been removed from the installation image. They don’t want to work properly with coool graphics effects. Anyway, you can install these drivers from the repository.- Made final freeze of 2011 platform in build system. This news is for maintainers only.
