I've been reading the two threads on this and I have been wondering.. is there anything inherently _wrong_ with how things were presented in openSUSE 11.1?
I completely agree with this. Keep it as it is please!
The only change I would make would be to change from radio buttons to check boxes so that people could select more than one DE on install (convenience factor for people like me that like to tinker).
As one of the elusive XFCE4 users I often install KDE and gnome applications too for use 'when needed' (yes, I know that actually using them loads the myriad libraries etc. and slows things to a crawl on older hardware. That's why only 'when needed'). This is easy enough in the pattern menu though, and would serve to confuse newbies.
Catering to the mindless click next 5 times and it's installed mentality.. well give those people the KDE or Gnome Live CDs.
I don't think we should - indeed the live CDs are probably right up their street. Then they can complain that OpenSuSE doesn't offer some proprietary package that their MS box has (as a pirated install) and go right back to that OS.
Problem solved? Or no? Have I missed something?
I think the whole issue is making a mountain out of a molehill. -- Cheers Richard (MQ) -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-project+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-project+help@opensuse.org
