Hi all, I've been asked by the marketing folks to get suggestions on how the International version of SuSE Linux could be improved for the US. If you have any suggestions regarding features that could be added/improved I'd really appreciate if you'd send them to the reply-to address and not to the list. Suggestions like "Please upgrade package foo to version x.y" aren't terribly helpful, suggestions like "Please be a little less conservative with package updates" are. You get the idea... I often say that there's no point in complaining about things on this list because it's not read by the people who make a lot of the big decisions; this is your chance to bypass the feedback@suse.com bottleneck and give input directly to them. I'll stop collecting feedback on Monday, Apr. 29 so you have some time to think about it. Thanks in advance, -- -ckm
Hi what about a Firewall-GUI setup wizard ? for the personal and the other firewall config ? or what about a email, or dns GUI Setup wizard ?

Is this some sort of mutt rule you've concocted? I get Reply-To: ckm+survey@suse.com //Anders
Anders Johansson
I get
Reply-To: ckm+survey@suse.com
I think that maybe it is the "Mail-Followup-To: suse-linux-e@suse.com" header which is causing the problem. Without actually sending them, using gnus if I pressed "R" (Reply) the mail was correctly addressed but if I pressed "F" (Wide Reply) it was addressed to the list - though this is the normal mailing list behaviour.
The section below is why when any email I get from the SLE gets replied
directly to the SLE and to no one else. :)

Your right. I have a procmail rule that forces the replyto to the list address. oops..forgot about that..which is why I never actually saw the replyto you inserted.

. I wish for a more consolidated config schema. - To this day I do not know how to replicate one setup for all users (so it is updated) real-time. Experiments with symlinking have failed. - Sooo many customization files scattered all over the place, in /opt, /usr, /etc, /home, and sooo many ways to mess it up. At least some sort of backup tool that would save a whole system customization. Better yet, a more cohesive customization system. - A rational system for menu .desktop links. Should be able to simply move files around within some directory structure (yeah like Windows) and be able to right-click a menu entry to modify -- object-oriented. - An official Suse backup program. One that would save *everything* in the best io format, and that would be easy to do disaster recovery with. - A simpler filesystem. I like one global environment (no "disk C:, D:, etc) but I also like simple upper-levels with information categorized *below*, rather than having 16 *irrelevent* folders visible at root. I'm one of those who with Winduhs, had about 5 top-level folders. And knew exactly where everything was, because it was organized. - I dream of a *nix clone for Wordperfect. One that will import old WP and M$ files perfectly and would save to M$Orifice docs perfectly. This alas, is but a pipedream. I realize some of this contravenes the Posix and whatever other standards, or is under the control of someone else, but it's what I would like. Most of this bears on simplification, in case you didn't notice. Anon. Coward On Tuesday, 23 April 2002 11:17, you wrote:

Thanks in advance,
Mr.Mahmood I am a relative tyro with Linux, but not with computers;I am an immigrant from OS2. The one thing I could have used (and still could use) would be a well-indexed cdrom (and book) with all the command line commands for Linux with illustrations that go beyond the Linux manual. The index should be set up in such a way that a person can find a command that is needed for a particular task as well as the characteristics of the command (which one can usually find with the "man" command). S.u.S.E. could also market a fairly intensive cdrom-based several-hour course in using Linux (S.u.S.E.fuer Unbegabten und Neulinge), to be used with a S.u.S.E. installation and with instructions re both KDE and Gnome. I suspect you could charge an extra $20-30 and thereby increase the market for S.u.S.E.among those who hesitate because Linux is so arcane. dj tuchler On Tue, 2002-04-23 at 11:17, Christopher Mahmood wrote:
