I'm not sure what bothered James specifically but I'll tell you what bothered me about kde4 and suse 11.1 in general:
kde: 1. It does not remember settings from one session to another. I add things to the quick launch area and they're gone when I login. I add the "new tab" button to Konsole and its gone next session.. plus many others.
Perhaps there is a "save" dialogue. You know, like making changes with an editor and not specifically saving the results....
2. The task bar documentation says that there is a task list but there is no way to enable it in the dialog for the task bar settings... so no task list.
At least, no way that appears intuitive to *you* :^)
3. It is really hard to get the task bar to look right. It took me half an hour of fiddling around and still the clock is wrapped on two lines (neither of which I can see completely).
It's new and different and something to "learn" just like the difference between dos and *nix ....
4. Neither Konqueror or Dolphin have a "picture" view mode for looking at my photographs. I'm not talking about icons.. but a proper photo browser. I'll really miss that (not really cause I'm not keeping kde4)
I believe the *designated* photo/graphics viewer for KDE4 is gwenview, not the file handler, dolphin, or the browser, konqueror. The linux (*nix) way is many small utilities that do simple things very well, not one program that does everything half-assed, like the monstrosity.... Did you ever try to use an editor with a different key-set than you were accustomed? KDE4 is *different* than KDE3, ie: not meant to be the same program, but accomplish similar goals in a different manner. -- Patrick Shanahan Plainfield, Indiana, USA HOG # US1244711 http://wahoo.no-ip.org Photo Album: http://wahoo.no-ip.org/gallery2 Registered Linux User #207535 @ http://counter.li.org -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
