At the same time, I feel very much unsettled about the path KDE4 goes. It is still miles away from enterprise desktop usage. It lacks both features and stabiliy: * printing is a joke. Compared to Windows, MacOS and Gnome, it is just downright broken.
Them is very strong fighting words. It would be great to see the evidence that backs those words up.
I use the above in real world office work. Apparently, you don't.
Even if he doesn't *I* do. I use KDE 4.2.1 on openSUSE 11.1 every day on my laptop at work. I print to network printers over my WPA-PSK connection. I suspend, hibernate, and come back. I use email, OO.org, IM, calendering, etc. Yes, I'm a developer. That doesn't mean I've got time to fight with my OS; I have real work to do for clients. I use Linux every day to do real work. I respectfully disagree with you, Daniel Mader.
* PIM is lacking features, such as synchronizing with syncML and the like. It doesn't even have plugins for Google stuff, which would greatly enhance popularity. Again, noone seems to care
Again, I ask for evidence of those very strong words.
Dito.
Same thing. I respectfully disagree with you. Yes, there are problems with KDE 4.2.1, but I actually find it more useful than KDE 3.5.10. I still don't think oS should have even shipped KDE 4.0 and KDE 4.1 to users, much less made KDE 4.1 the default desktop. To the oS developers on the list: Thank you for all the work you do to make oS a great distribution. Please ignore the users that don't want to be part of the solution, just don't confuse them with the users that have legitimate problems and want to help but just don't know how to fix their bug. Good luck during the development of 11.2, may it be the best oS ever. -- Boyd Stephen Smith Jr. ,= ,-_-. =. bss@iguanasuicide.net ((_/)o o(\_)) ICQ: 514984 YM/AIM: DaTwinkDaddy `-'(. .)`-' http://iguanasuicide.net/ \_/
