Pros: - openSUSE provides KDE3 - less "trash" (packages) installed by default
Do you have a list of packages that you think could be left out? ;) I'm definitely interested in suggestions here!
I think you are asking it with the intention of reducing the amount of packages on LiveCDs so the image could fit in a CD, right? :-) It was not what I was referring to, sorry. I was comparing the amount of packages that DVD installs versus CD. I'm against installation of lots of packages by default if the majority of users won't never need/use them. I rather like have a very very clean system with the basic apps (the ones KDE{3,4} LiveCD has basically serves most users needs I think) plus a few others required for special needs, non-oss codecs and wireless firmwares. I would love to point some "unneeded" packages out but I don't use DVDs anymore to install openSUSE since 10.3, though I might try it if you want my personal opinion. Summarising: DVD -> select KDE3/KDE4 -> install packages as it had been from a LiveCD + non-oss codecs and wireless firmwares. Just that. -- Regards, Carlos Goncalves --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org
