[g-a-devel] Re: Keyboard control of sliders broken in FC5?

["Al Puzzuoli" <alpuzz gmail com>]

So based on the lack of responses, I'm assuming no one has been able to 
confirm this?

If so,  then I'm really confused, as it's happening on 2 FedoraCore5 boxes 
that I know of to date.  For purposes of troubleshooting this further, can 
anyone tell me which component of Gnome would actually govern keyboard 
manipulation of sliders?

Thanks,
