very interesting text. shows at least something: there is a great vocabulary gap between kernel developpers and street users... for me (a not too new linux user), I see a "driver problem" when some sort of hardware don't works, or don't works out of the box. For example, my Acer 9410Z laptop have a mike entry unusable with Linux and google said this is normal, the driver don't support it. is that not a problem (for me it's a big one!)? The "capslock" dead key *light* don't works under Kde! (works under raw console!) special keys (wlan, blutooth) don't works either of course this is of little importance, but when somebody installs openSUSE, it sucks... so, yes, there is a *reporting* problem, needs some sort of bugzilla... jdd -- Jean-Daniel Dodin Président du CULTe www.culte.org -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
