*GRRR* now this is not directed directly at Landy or anything, it's directed at *a lot* of people subscribed SLE, who know who they are. Would you please read and understand http://learn.to/edit_messages It is simply *annoying* sitting on a slow connection and scrolling and scrolling to find out only one line was added. Read it, learn it. It's really simple. And it's doable with *ALL* mailers out there, including Outlook (Express). I included the message in full below for demonstration--and this is not even bad compared to some mails we see. ----- Forwarded message from Landy Roman <landy@despiertapr.com> ----- Message-Id: <20020527135833.31B6A3283DA@despiertapr.com> Date: Mon, 27 May 2002 09:58:33 -0400 (EDT) From: Landy Roman <landy@despiertapr.com> To: Clifford Okoro <clifford.okoro@isa.co.uk> Cc: suse-linux-e@suse.com Subject: Re: [SLE] Gnome is crap On Mon, 27 May 2002 14:51:15 +0100 Clifford Okoro <clifford.okoro@isa.co.uk> wrote:

begin Matthew Johnson's quote:

{Snip} and in that there *are* people who have gnome, evolution, etc., running well on their machines, a problem getting it all to work properly on any one machine, group of machines, or with any particular distribution suggests that the problem might not necessarily be with gnome itself. my view is that a good part of it is due to everybody's disparate crackpot schemes for updating binaries, be it YOU, red hat network, or red carpet. such systems simply *must* make some assumptions that may or may not be accurate, but that are almost certainly not accurate if the user has tinkered at all with his installation. this is entirely separate from the issue of the quality of the applications or desktops being installed.-- dep

Well said dep. I may be one of the few who use Gnome/Ximian but let me say i LOVE it. Only Galeon gives me problems but hey i use opera so that's not an issue. Yes I've tried KDE but it just doesn't do it for me. Not that anything's wrong with it though. I just prefer Ximian. I love evolution and updates to ximian are piss easy thru red carpet. admittedly there are some dependency issues that have yast (I still use SuSE 7.2) in a twist but

have you ever had problems with evolution

since it's my system I know what/why it's complaining. I say use what makes you happiest but don't think it makes us *all* happy. Some luv KDE, some luv Ximian, some luv windows. Let's leave it at that.

Just my 2 pence ;-)
