Great work by Alin and Javier - I just tried Build3-1 and it looks fine. What are the remaining bits of polish it needs? Let's build a list so when it we make a splash about it it's a-mazing. Please all join in and suggest things needing fixing.
* desktop:/ still crashes in FolderView when run in a VM. This is hard to debug * Strigi is activated by default, and we disabled it in 11.3 to placate the angry brigade. Leave it off and keep Nepomuk enabled?
Strigi/Nepomuk is working fine on a desktop (I've finally started using it, and it's not disruptive at all anymore), but it's one of those items that really kills performance while it's doing its initial indexing. This is a feature I'd definitely vote to have turned off on the LiveCD. There is no real benefit to it being switched on, on a LiveCD.... at least none i can think of.
I admit that I didn't test it with a cdrom - I only dd'ed it to a usb stick and booted in VMs, and didn't actually notice any performance hit while the initial 1 minute index took place. I felt it was important to have all the upstream features enabled on the KDE Four Live image as it's an upstream showcase. For openSUSE KDE Reloaded, I think Strigi should be an opt-in as it was in 11.3 I think Nepomuk should be enabled as more features in 4.5 depend on it than in 4.4. Without Strigi or KDE PIM 4.5 beta (which is still facing some performance bugs), it consumes memory but not appreciable amounts of CPU.
