Fred, weren't there suggestions, some months ago, that there is a (deliberate) push for openSUSE/SLED users to use Gnome rather than KDE?
Ciao.
On SLED you have to go out of your way to get KDE to work at all. It comes GNOME.
I have a hard time believing SLED is viable, given the ease of use and polish of Ubuntu. Dell's Ubuntu machines even come with the mpeg tax paid so that you have integrated Audio/Visual apps running without having to install a bunch of software just to play a movie. Of course SLED is aimed a the enterprise, but I have a hard time imagining an "enterprise" running many sled boxes. I've never actually seen a single copy installed in Government or private industry.
I have, but I think we're saying the same thing. I just don't understand Novell's thinking about the market nor it's direction. The tech. market is headed for a VERY hard hit in the near future and I'm not at all sure they are positioned well enough to take it. Maybe MickySoft is just waiting to buy Novell. :( Fred -- "Politicians and diapers need to be changed regularly -- and for the same reason." -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
