They don't +necessarily want to learn the particularities of more than one major +desktop. +Or to learn 47 different applications to do essentially the same thing. + +Personally, I use Gnome, and have adapted to its few shortcomings, in +preference to those of KDE. Unfortunately KDE insists on installing +many applications which, in addition to not working very well, clutter +my system, including the menu. +But others prefer KDE over Gnome, and some like yourself prefer both. +If a minimal install of KDE were available, maybe installing both KDE +and Gnome by default might make sense. +But it seems to me that a simpler environment would be advantageous for +newer users. + +- André +</PRE> + + + + + + + + + +<!--endarticle--> + <HR> + <P><UL> + <!--threads--> + <LI>Previous message: <A HREF="002634.html">[Mageia-discuss] [Mageia-announce] One month later: Mageia’s home is almost habitable! +</A></li> + <LI>Next message: <A HREF="002638.html">[Mageia-discuss] Suggestions +</A></li> + <LI> <B>Messages sorted by:</B> + <a href="date.html#2637">[ date ]</a> + <a href="thread.html#2637">[ thread ]</a> + <a href="subject.html#2637">[ subject ]</a> + <a href="author.html#2637">[ author ]</a> + </LI> + </UL> + +<hr> +<a href="https://www.mageia.org/mailman/listinfo/mageia-discuss">More information about the Mageia-discuss +mailing list</a><br> +</body></html> |
