It's pretty cool; good work so far with it. Why can I not run any application? I only have a subset of my applications available to me. I right-click the shifter icon, select Start Application Session and in the Command drop-down there are not all of my applications for each Category. Thanks for this useful software. I am running Ubuntu x64 Lucid and Karmic (soon to be all Lucid).

I had ssh server set up, and I could log in to my computer using my user's account info, but my user didn't have an associated ssh key. I guess some sort of ssh key detection would be good for shifter. In Seahorse, the default key manager, my keys are easily identifiable. It says "Chris' SSH Key" because I entitled it that way after I created it. But in Shifter, I have to select the public and private key files themselves individually. If I could just select the key title and have it use the appropriate key files for me, it would be great. Also, I didn't have a key, so it would have been good if shifter walked me through creating a new ssh key for my user, or instructed me to launch Seahorse. When I used "Create New SSH Key" option in the configuration dialogue, it created keys for me, but it would still not connect. I am guessing because the keys were by default created in the shifter config directory. Nonetheless, I had to delete these keys and use Seahorse instead on both computers to create the ssh keys. After that, it was fine. In all, maybe just some obvious guidance on SSH keys would help. Which one(s) are you missing the most? > Thanks for putting it on the FAQ. I was missing KDE applications (Eg. Amarok).
