Re: [Ubuntu-tv] Some basic ideas for Ubuntu TV.

How about this. Like Ubuntu 11.10 when you login you have the option for "TV" mode or "Unity"Mode when you login thus giving full control to the advanced users and creating a secure area for not technical people. The "TV" are , As I see it in my mind being similar to XBMC where the users can custom

Bottom line, we have a way to provide a default list of apps while still allowing advanced users the ability to customize their system as they wish. Is that a satisfactory solution for everyone? Sent from my Palm PreOn Nov 29, 2011 22:11, Thomas Mashos wrote: That's not

That's not 100% accurate. You still would have multiple packages (one for desktop, one for ubuntutv), otherwise you are making every user download more than they need and everything gets bloated.
