[New: openFATE 310364] Add DVD's of each DE
Feature added by: Anomyous Anomyous (jcat123) Feature #310364, revision 1 Title: Add DVD's of each DE openSUSE-11.4: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Desirable Requested by: Anomyous Anomyous (jcat123) Description: In openSUSE 10.3, there were CD's that you could use to install openSUSE KDE or GNOME alone. I think it would be great to create individual DVDs for each Deskltop Environment, in addition to the current media, so you can install GNOME and loads of software with it. A KDE user could have 4.7 GB of KDE software that they would use, rather than XFCE, GNOME, and LXDE software they wouldn't use. Same for GNOME users. I would imagine that they had to drop some packes from the distribution to make room for LXDE in 11.3 and KDE 3 in 11.1 and 11.0. This would make installing software convenient for computers without an internet connection. -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/310364
