Ok, Another feature that I don't think I can live without(I usei a great deal) is opening a new terminal. I generally aloways just do this by typing gnome-terminal in a terminal, or, right click on the background and open new window. When I upgraded to Fedora 5, this went away.
Can I add "new terminal" the menu that pops up when I right click on the background>
I'd have to say, the Fedora 5 + Gnome combo really seems to be much mroe dumbed down now. The user interface seemt really take a hit, though, that could just how Fedora decided to setup Gnome.
Thanks for the help, |

| You can install the terminal extension for nautilus. I don't know about fc, but in ubuntu the package is called nautilus-open-terminal. |

You can also try gnome-terminal-launcher applet (http://gnome-tla.sf.net) that lets you launch any terminal defined in a GConf profile, not just the default one.
Additionally you can add extra options to gnome-terminal command line in GConf (i.e: --geometry). |
