Is there a grouping panel in Quantal Quetzal Beta1. I can't see it and I don't know if any extra package needs to be installed. I ask because there is a bug related to grouping panel and question was asked how it looks on KDE 4.9.0 or 4.9.1:
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=294220
So I want to check it.

.
This package is a metapackage that installs all the widgets, data

I am able to add only 'Flow Group' to grouping panel. This is with current trunk KDE. So, no fixes here :-(

Obviously this component is unmaintained...

or low priority/maintenance.

I did not manage to finish boot again. Alpha had the same problem.
Kernels 3.5.x have problems with some ATI Mobility Radeon. I have notebook HP Compaq 6820s with this problematic graphic card.

You may be able to boot by adding nomodeset to the grub line, but that may cause 3d problems (at least it does for Unity).

Nomodeset causes problem. Display resolution is strange and unable set proper resolution.
