This rule was violated in SuSE 10.0 when Mozilla Firefox 1.0 was updated as patch to Mozilla 1.5 version. It was a very good decission. Please remember that noteedit is not provided with SLED10. The simplest way to have it with this system is to take it from OpenSuSE. Version 10.2 has different gcc and glibc versions than SLED10. OpenSuSE 10.1 will go more or less parallel with SLED10 being natural source of additional packages (without support of course) for commercial version. I planned to buy new PC with SLED10 officially supported by computer vendor - but you force me to stay with free OpenSuSE version. OK - I like it (I used all versions starting from 8.2), but it will be Novell's financial loss. Noteedit was much easier to learn for my son (he was nine years old) than Finale Notepad for Windows. But lack of direct printing from noteedit was annoying. The newest version 2.8.1 promises to deliver this feature. It is also declared to be the last version. You may have lower support costs having one version on two OpenSuSE releases and another point in competing with MS Windows, especially that notepad version 2.8.0 distributed with SuSE 10.1 seems to be rather unusable. I can get and compile version from berlios.de but my general rule me and my friends home usage of the system is not to have any development tools installed. They are interested in music, not in gcc/glibc/make/etc. You have no any development tools required for most of the MS Windows packages. This is Novell who wants to compete with Microsoft on desktop market and I will be happy to see it successfull. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.
