Bug Description

Open the Onboard Settings window.
Switch to the Universal Access window.
The link to Universal Access Panel won't work if gnome-control-center isn't installed.

This is the case on Xubuntu where Onboard is installed but gnome-control-center isn't.

Yes, we should hide/disable that button, though perhaps only as a stop gap measure for Quantal.

For later, I wonder if we shouldn't integrate the remaining mousetweaks settings into Onboard's preferences. As far as I'm aware, desktops without gnome-control-center have no easy way to configure the hover click delay. Also, if there were alternative configuration GUIs, we would have to maintain detecting them and presenting the right button.

There would be two new sliders for delay and motion threshold added to preferences. In return, the button to open g-c-c would go and we could restart the discussion about removing the second checkbox "enable hc window on exit". Ideally the number of widgets wouldn't change (ignoring labels).

+1 for integrating a full mousetweaks gui into the Preferences of Onboard.

However, I am not sure yet about what to do with the "enable hc window on exit" checkbox.

Ok, I've opened bug #1053496 for adding the mousetweaks settings and subscribed Gerd. Let's discuss it there.

Trunk now hides the button if gnome-control-center isn't in PATH. I'm going to merge this into the 0.98 branch, so we'll have it in the 0.98.1 release.
