I haven't followed too closely about what is being dropped from the CD for lack of space, but I understand that The Gimp is one of them. At the risk of dumping yet another important package from the CD, why not just 'bite the bullet' and do so [remove another (other) packag(s) from the CD]?
Perhaps even substitute Xfce or a lighter desktop in place of Nautilus (?), just to ensure that a proper kernel is included... Linux enthusiasts like myself might gripe a bit, but at least we will be ABLE to CONNECT and GET what is missing. =>The kernel is the *heart* of the OS. Anything *less* than this fixed kernel and Canonical / Ubuntu is giving birth to a *seriously handicapped* (...dare I say 'stillborn'?) child. <= [... anyway, I'm off to today's Olympic parade in downtown Montreal. Maybe I'll run into someone from Team Ubuntu and twist his arm!] ... sorry if I'm being so insistent about this... -- [lucid] rt2860 frequently fails to connect to mixed mode WPA/WPA2 secured wireless networks https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/496093 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
