Otherwise I do not see any other language setting with my RC1 CD. In 10.2 it was the way you describe it though. -- 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.

It's a management decision. -- 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.

https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=327579#c11 --- Comment #11 from Jiří­ Suchomel 2007-10-03 15:21:21 MST --- My (developer's) reason is, that we do not base language selection on timezone anywhere - actually we base the time zone selection on language because the standard installation workflow has language selection before timezone selection and although both approaches could make sense, it is not possible to maintain both of them at the same time. 1-CD installation is a special one, and a limited one comparing to DVD (it is logical, isn't it?) and so it was decided (by managers) that this kind of product is English only. Yes, it is possible to add other languages via the networked AddOn source - but for those users it makes sense to install from DVD source anyway. Technically, it would be possible to change the language according to the time zone just for this limited kind of product, but 1) it would mean that this behavior is different from the standard one with DVD installation, which is confusing 2) as the language-specific packages are _not_ on CD, this could result in the non-english installation language, but without the packages needed for that language, because selecting the language AddOn is really only on user's own responsibility and cannot be done automatically. And finally, we do not speak about the fact that it is not possible to do some task - it is possible, just the default value is set differently so you have to do 2 more clicks later to change the language - this is part of the limitation of 1CD product. (really off-topic: I'm not a fan of ZENWorks, but ZMD was reasonable decision; not for openSUSE but for enterprise products) -- 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.
