Hello, Just installed 2.0 beta and think its fantastic! Almost have everything working. ( this is on a Dell Inspiron 1525 Laptop.

Im trying to find a windows replacement for my sisters laptop, so far i have tried Zorin os and Linux Lite 1.0.8
So far i have everything working except: System sounds (ex - Start up and shut down sounds, minimize and maximize windows, log on, log off, error ect... )
i have enabled: Event sounds under appearance Settings, tried to install some Canberra Stuff? Still no system or event sounds?
So far i am loving this OS and think i can get some people to switch to it, just need to get it working as close to windows as possible, so if anyone could point me in the direction i would appreciate it.

I have done numerous google searches spent a few hours trying things and still no system sounds working
(all the other sounds work, youtube, music, video, etc...
Keep up the great work this Os is going to be awesome!
Thanks,
Tommy

Hello, i have another question,
Using 2.0 beta, I installed google chrome, (and chromium to test as well) and i am trying to get the shows on http://abc.go.com/shows    to play, but i get a error saying: Shockwave flash has crashed? i checked and chrome (and chromium) has the latest pepperflash installed, can anyone try this and confirm, is there a way to get the shows to play on abc.com and chrome? it works in winows and mac.

Also quicktime movies (not apple movie trailers) wont play in chrome or chromium either as in here:
http://www.apple.com/logic-pro/in-action/        Scroll down to:Nine inch nails take to the stage video, i get a message saying: Get quicktime?
Other than that everything is working great in beta 2.0, i am loving this OS, Thanks!
Tommy

Oh no problem, sorry about that I didn't see a 2.0 beta forum other than this one will do.
Thanks,
Tommy

Hi

Thanks for the 2.0 beta. I have installed in virtualbox and everything seems OK. The most exciting thing is the weather plugin works for this 2.0 beta now. It was not before 2.0 beta. One question is: where to find the directory of wallpapers now? It just shows 'xfce' folder on the desktop setup. It used to at the folder of ' /usr/share/xfce4/backdrops/'. I like linux lite very much because it fits my needs. Thanks and congratulation to the development team. I know the final release of 2.0 is out when writing this message.

The Wallpapers are in /usr/share/backgrounds/xfce/
