Am I the only one who's happy with v11.1 and KDE4?
Hello Jerry and the List Readers, I'm OK with KDE 4.1 knowing it's still a work in progress. There are only 2 things noted for myself.... 1. You have to take the time and initiative to get into this new way of doing business. It's not as intuitive as previous versions. Being creatures of habit, it's hard to see pass the little things. I view this as a means of keeping Linux in general as a young persons OS. With MS's "V word" from Redmond having a form of eye candy that appeals to the young crowd, we within Linux community shouldn't over look why we originally adopted this as the OS of choice. 2. The only thing that does bug me about KDE 4.x is it's slow response time to inputs... like resizing windows. Now with that said, I only have this issue with the ATI cards and not the NVidia. So it's not really a dig against KDE but of ATI/AMD for still lagging on performance under Linux. It been clearly stated that maybe KDE 4.x shouldn't been the default desktop on SuSE 11.1. But it does accomplish something that has been needed, a lot of user inputs from all types of systems. What a better way of quickly identifying the problems and moving this forward as a next generation user interface. Just my thoughts without flames.
