https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=381938 Summary: Descriptions for KDE3 and KDE4 desktops almost identical Product: openSUSE 11.0 Version: Beta 1 Platform: All OS/Version: openSUSE 11.0 Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Usability AssignedTo: coolo@novell.com ReportedBy: sh@novell.com QAContact: qa@suse.de CC: locilka@novell.com, wstephenson@novell.com, mschmidkunz@novell.com, stbinner@novell.com, dmueller@novell.com Found By: Development In the desktop selection during installation, we currently have two different versions of KDE to choose from: KDE3 and KDE4. The descriptions for both options are identical except for the version number (KDE3 vs. KDE3). This is not helpful for users to make a decision which one might be more appropriate for them. I suggest we add some explanation like "KDE4 is brand new and has much more visual effects, but not all KDE applications are ported to KDE4 yet. KDE3 is a mature and proven desktop, but it lacks the transparency effects etc. of KDE4". I am aware that we are walking on thin ice here with the always ongoing competition between GNOME and KDE, so we have to choose the wording carefully. But if the description does not assist the user in making his choice, we might as well omit it completely. -- 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.
