Hi everybody, our company has a few Lenovo S10e Netbooks out there, all equipped with a 4GB SSD and no harddrive. They're in for a pretty rough handling and we've tried harddrives - they died after a few weeks, sometimes even a few days in the field. Currently, they're running openSUSE 11.1 but are in dire need of an update - the 11.1 was more of a workaround. Sometimes only the root account works, sometimes they grind to a screeching halt, etc. Suffice it to say that none of our users is really happy with them right now, so I'm looking to upgrade them to 11.2. What we need: - Gnome environment - XDM to login (GDM is not customizable enough) - QT3 libs - Firefox 3.5, Thunderbird 2.0 - OpenOffice.org 3.0.1, Adobe Reader 9.x - A 256MB swap partition What we don't need: - Games - QT4 - Other desktop environments or window managers After remove tons of packages, documentation, unneccessary locale data, etc. I'm down to roughly 2.8GB now: martin/nbrieke$ df -h Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on /dev/sda1 3.6G 2.8G 755M 80% / udev 246M 316K 245M 1% /dev However, that still feels like too much for my taste. I've gone through YaST2 Software Management several times, looking for packages to remove but have to say that I've reached the point where I simply don't know what else to do. Simply put: has anyone managed to go even further than that? Or have I reached the ceiling?
