Easy to use, Quick installationtime, Pleasing look and feel. So, are you going to plane reduce install steps?Because openSUSE has the most install steps.
For what I know/heard, the look of the installer you found won't be implemented for 10.3 due to technical reasons.
Overall, the screenshot is doable, and would be pretty much limited to hacking yast-qt/gtk. It does requires quite some work, and the collaboration of an artist. We could fallback to the current skin for smaller resolution. For the transparency effect, you don't need 3D, just 3 backgrounds. Frame-less, transparent dialogs could be the most tricky part. We could also throw in some animations: when advancing steps, or on the transition between the steps pane to show help. This is of course mostly a marketing thing, the installer looks don't affect its usability. That's why I guess it has changed little in that department. Cheers, Ricardo
I'm not a developer, but I find those steps necessary. Thanks to them, OpenSUSE is fully configured, with network, printers and other hardware fully working.
I think this is one of the strong points of openSUSE. A new user might find these steps boring, but at the same time he's driven step-by-step through the configuration of his system, and potentially he's going to enjoy it better.
With kind regards, Alberto
