Hi

Thank you for this tip. It seems to me that owncloud is not yet 
functional. First, the client icon should be shown on the main task 
bar. Searching for an application also has some issues with the on 
screen keyboard, but it seems to work.
I am able to type my owncloud parameters, but after sign in, there is a 
dark frame that hides the graphical elements found on the owncloud GUI, 
which makes owncloud client unusable at this current stage. This client 
is the one shipped by owncloud ? Are the sources available ?

regards
Bogdan
