Q&A Section
| Your Name | Question/Comment | |
|---|---|---|
| Daniel Mader | Will there be a replacement for the outdated teTeX distribution? Such as TeXlive for example? Would be very very nice :) | |
| Palimpseste | Will the integration of yast and gnome control center be improved? It is a little bit confusing that, for instance, the mouse or "audio" can be adjusted via gnome control center and for different but related settings one has to use yast. It would be nice to have at least a reference, like a button, to open the associated yast-module (like "yast sound" and "yast mouse model"), within the relevant gnome-control-center configuration dialogue. Furthermore, the printer entry in the gnome control center should be replaced entirely by yast, or at least the "add printer" menu entry should open "yast printer module". | |
| The_Docter | In the last few releases there were some ridiculous package dependencies. For example if I wanted to use the KNetworkmanager VPN plugin (in combination with vpnc), I need to install an icontheme package which relies on a gnome package, which in turn relies on some other gnome package, which ... Well, this leads to installing nearly a complete gnome on a KDE desktop. It would be great if such issues would be addressed in the future, as it is very confusing on the one hand and on the other hand causing the whole packaging and dependency system to grow unnecessarily complex. Any chances? | |
| David Miller | Artwork in openSUSE:- How is artwork decided upon in the openSUSE distro? I subscribe to both the ubuntu and fedora art mailing lists simply because those aspects of those distributions intrest me. Looking through the opensuse mailing lists there doesn't appear to be any dedicated place for discusion of openSUSE's artwork.
How about a more open model for 10.4/11.0 (or even 10.3)? Individuals / groups interested could create mockups on how they feel opensuse artwork should be in the next distro release, perhaps using the opensuse wiki to allow public viewing and commenting. --Djmdave 09:57, 28 March 2007 (UTC) |
