I am still trying to get the Web panel to build but it is not critical but fairly imoortant.

Somewhat disappointed but not surprised, I do however have to appologise for not getting it in within the timeframe. I had the opportunity but missed the boat. This doesn't mean that people can't install Moblin, I will endeavour to have installable images available at or just after the release of 11.3.

The creation of a version with moblin, with gnome, and kde would be a big step. and also enter a specific kernel for these computers, including drivers and kernel patches to improve stability of the distribution. This would include a change in the interface in both gnome and kde, and both of these projects have packages to improve the interface little displays Discussion: #1: Jan Engelhardt (jengelh) (2009-12-05 14:55:22) OpenSUSE already offers GNOME and KDE (though may not with Little Display Interfaces, dunno). What specific kernel is needed, and why is not the one provided by default good enough? What extra patches are so strongly required? #2: Agustin Chavarria (dj_ubun_1) (2009-12-05 15:45:14) But the gnome and kde, have no version to little display, it will be goog a gnome netbook version or kde netbook version. #3: Todd R (theblackcat) (2009-12-05 19:49:08) (reply to #2) KDE SC 4.4 is providing a netbook workspace by default. KDE SC 4.4 Beta 1, which is already available in the build service, has it already. #4: Agustin Chavarria (dj_ubun_1) (2009-12-26 15:39:04) i mean an option in the installer to select GNOME or GNOME netbook, KDE or KDE netbook. or make and specific image #5: Markus K (kamikazow) (2010-01-12 03:04:53) (reply to #4) There is no GNOME for netbooks. You can get Moblin for openSUSE, though. The KDE part of this request is a dupe of https://features.opensuse.org/308269 #6: Michael Löffler (michl19) (2010-01-19 14:05:44) We should have at least one version supporting netbooks (GNOME, Moblin or KDE). Andrew is working on Goblin, the Novell team around Michael Meeks is doing Moblin for Novell, KDE upstream is workong on netbook support and GNOME works on netbook support for gnome-shell as well. #7: Stephan Kulow (coolo) (2010-02-08 11:28:14) Michael, will we have Moblin UI for factory this month? #10: Vincent Untz (vuntz) (2010-02-10 19:02:00) (reply to #7) (I'm not Michael ;-)) I was planning to sit down with someone from the moblin team next week to finally get all the packages in openSUSE. The main problem there is how to keep the packages worked on by moblin team and the openSUSE packages in sync, as far as I understood. #8: Axel Braun (docb) (2010-02-08 16:47:53) OpenSUSE 11.2 runs already fine on netbooks, with just some small changes (see http://www.eeepc.de/thema-8927-KDE_Kubuntu_Netbook_Remix_oder_openSUSE_11.2.... ) Nevertheless, a dedicated NBR - or install option - would be appreciated.
