Yes, I seriously believe that. I'm involved in the debian-edu subproject, and we try to make Debian available for all pupils and students during education. Several of the teachers responsible for setting up the computer network at their local school will be seriously baffled when asked to choose between gnome and kde. > I bet those people will probably be more confused by the various > server tasks. Absolutely. Which is why I try to encurrage redusing the amount of questions during first time install, and hide the complexity and flexibility from "common" users view, to reduce the cognitive strain on the first time debian users. Us experts will find the options anyway. > And you think it is easier for them to discover the KDE desktop once > they have GDM running ? What do you imagine our current disk > requirements are ? I do not believe these users _care_ if they get the KDE or gnome desktop. I have no idea what you mean by "our current disk requirements". -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
