Debian-edu/Skolelinux is crafted around a good network setup, a almost complete set of tools, and easy to install installation cd.
But much of the tools are based upon kde, which has a strong base here in Norway, and also in Germany. IF we think back on the state of gnome/KDE in woody, I think that the selected Desktop was the correct to select. But since then GNome has come a long way. And personally I like GNome better than KDE. But before trying to build the first gnome-based debian-edu-cd I have one big problem: bug #296434 - http://bugs.debian.org/296434 I set up Norwegian (I've tried with danish as well), and in the console and in gdm everything seems to be set up correctly. but when gnome starts, I get US keyboard. This seems to have been a known bug in Fedora Core around the time they switched from XFree86 packages to X.org packages, but Debian has not yet switched. I've tried with Ubuntu, and there things works. So I have two questions for you: - Does this problem applies in German, French and other languages as well ? - SHould this bug be other priority than normal - I mean this bug is grave, as it prevents us from having a preconfigured environment. I would not like to tell hundreds of users to use "gnome-keyboard-properties" to set up their keyboard even if X and keyboard has been set up correctly. I think It should be grave - makes the package in question unusable or mostly so (maybe not) or important - a bug which has a major effect on the usability of a package, without rendering it completely unusable to everyone. (Applies to everyone that dont us US-keyboard) I Think it's an important bug. -- Finn-Arne Johansen [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://bzz.no/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
