Most of the tabs don't make much sense. We detect printers automatically, scanners are not hal-supported atm anyway, nobody wants to run something when a mouse is plugged in, etc. The tabs worth keeping are the one that actually talks about removable media and drives, and maybe the one about palm syncing, but that may be conflicting with gnome-pilot, which we also have in the preferences.
This also covers bug 169101
from the other bug: Comment #2 From Ray Strode (rstrode) on 2006-01-11 14:07 EST [reply] Private The yast thing got fixed upstream and is already in rawhide. We still need to get rid of gnome-printer-add and we also should used "f-spot --import gphoto2:" for the camera selection, i think. I still think we should just get rid of the whole property dialog sans maybe one page with one or two options in it. Anyway, caillon wants to handles this stuff and I'm too lazy to file new bugs. reassigning.
Obviously, getting rid of most tabs did not happen. Instead of f-spot, which we don't install by default, we use gthumb for photo import. Moving to FC6Target
Add to FC6Destop tracker
We really need to work on this upstream. This isn't something we want a giant distro patch for.
