Yer, Debian is indeed a very nice platform to base stuff on. :) > Is the inavailability of mirrors a real issue? How about the 'usual places' > like ibiblio.org and gwdg.de and so on? We're going to send a mail to them and some of the current Debian mirrors. If they know Debian (and its everlasting release procedure *grin*), they would probably like to support a desktop flavour of it. > I've read about Project Utopia and the KDE Volume Manager before but always > had the impression that those were a bit far off to be really integrated > and nice and all.

Ubuntu Linux ships with Project Utopia already, which I believe shows it's mature enough (or almost) already. > Still it seems to be quite a bit harder to get all this (HAL, D-BUS, KDE > VM...) going instead of 'just' adding a supermount-ng patch to the > kernel... don't know just wish KDE or my distribution-of-choice (DDD? :)) > would handle this out of the box. supermount is considered a hack. ervin of Kalyxo is working on a media:/ kioslave for KDE which I believe will solve a lot for us. I don't remember the latest plan on how to automount stuff though. :-) I'll ask. > Everything I've seen from Kalyxo this far simply rocks...
