Athena 10 Top 10 Prioritized list of issues

This is a simple timeline going from top to bottom.
As an issue is resolved it is removed from the list.

  1. debathena-165 HPET clock is broken on Dell 760 Hardware (Root Cause is "C State" BIOS setting)
  2. ATN-43 Printing from Java-based apps does not work in the cluster environment. (We need to convert various of our apps to use local Java which works.)
  3. ATN-10 Improve semantics of attach/detach.
  4. ATN-29 CUPS should not scan local network for printers
  5. ATN-46 CUPS integration needs improvement.
  6. ATN-18 Create additional metapackage to satisfy the needs of traditional private workstation owners. (Package rename has been publicly announced.)
  7. ATN-53 Kiosk Mode operation of Firefox to enable User Registration
  8. ATN-69 / debathena-148 gdm Failsafe logins don't work for us. We need to write our own.
  9. ATN-61 / debathena-153 Find a way to show .xsession errors to user from gdm

Quick Action

Tickets that only need a small amount of effort to close

  1. ATN-14 The code is done, we're just waiting on installing an actual machine.
  2. ATN-18 This is done, the ticket can be closed as soon as the change is deployed, tentatively scheduled for 5/1.
