Hi,
I have a laptop on which I have fedora 15. This laptop is not strong,
so I prefer having gnome-3 fallback mode on it.
I tried to create an application launcher on the desktop.
when I click the right button, when the mouse is on the desktop,
nothing happens.
With Fedora 14, this opened the "crea

I have a .pdf file I need to convert to text in order to use
Google translate on it. I tried copy/paste but it won't copy
from a .pdf.

Is there a conversion app.?.
