planning on getting me a dual opteron myself.  hope she runs as advertised.  
i figure a year or so after it comes out the price drop (i hope) combined 
with my running a 750 will force the issue..

AFAIK, this is the case with 8.2 - the standard download edition (2 or 3 
CDs, depending one whether you want the /contrib stuff) is now 
completely Open Source (which is why there are still a few little things 
you may need to download after installation, like closed-source 
drivers).  The last proprietary application in Mandrake was, I believe, 
Netscape 4.something, which has now been replaced by Mozilla.  If you 
want the proprietary software as well, there's the PowerPack.

Things are generally very impressive, but there are a few annoying 
glitches that could be fixed fairly easily:

- - 'obvious' firewalling with something like Guarddog (the current 
security level method is not obvious enough; it's hard to see the 
firewall doing its stuff, hence unclear that it's actually working);

- - the user interface of the Mandrake-specific applications improved, 
particularly font importing (I regret to say this, but the profusion of 
buttons there is just awful);

- - the ghastly and broken decorative fonts removed (the Adobe, URW and 
B&H ones are quite enough to be going on with as most people will 
import Microsoft fonts);

- - support for both greyscale and subpixel anti-aliasing (with a flat 
panel having to edit /etc/X11/Xftconfig on reinstall to add one line is 
irritating);

- - the Mosfet Liquid theme compiled in as standard (one less job to do, 
and I'd imagine most KDE users have it installed by now);

- - some solution for the Alcatel Speedtouch USB driver problem (getting 
the proprietary mgmt.o microcode file by hook or by crook as, without 
it, the Mandrake installation _can never work_ out of the box);

- - KDE applications added to fill in gaps currently occupied by Gnome 
applications only (eg k3b for CD-R and CD-RW, kbear for FTP, kile for 
LaTeX editing if emTeX is installed), thus enabling 'clean' KDE without 
Gnome installations.

Re: [newbie] Mandrake 9.0 wishlist :-)

2002-06-14 Thread jay


A few thing I would change would be in Gnome... When you click a tar.gz
file it automagically opens it... no having to setup a program to run when
clicked. Also a .gnome-desktop sym-link such as Gnome-desktop in your
/home/user/ directory would be nice.
I disagree with the Opera thing.. not that it's a bad browser or anything,
but it is closed source... maybe an extra's cd filled with all closed
source code, but I don't think it should be mixed together. The beauty is
knowing I can do whatever I want with a standard 2 disc install and not
have to worry about violating patents or getting in trouble. THis is one
thing I admire about Debian.
These things would make life easier on newbies I believe... I customize my
box from scratch so it doesn;t matter to me and I learn alot doing it.
Nvidia/flash install helper not a bad idea, but those things are easy
to install...
Mandrake Icons... yeah, they are not that great.. I like the connective
crystal Icon theme, very nice... but I am not to concerned with things
like that.

Totally agree. All the icons look too similar... Too much purple CAN be a bad 
thing. :)

Anyhow, who said you need a star in EVERY icon?

.. i used KDE 3.0.1 a while and i dumped it when i found fluxbox ;o)

but i think you didn't get my point. i'm not saying Mandrake has to
improve KDE themes. that's up to kde-look . 

it's true you can make a beautiful KDE by dwnloading a couple 
of coloschemes and icon themes and such, but then you will 
find out what i was talking about. 

.. you will have perfect, beautiful icons, transparent menus,
sleek 3D window decorations, gorgeous fonts with antialiasing.
and a horrid "mandrake control center" icon that matches nothing,
looks way too flat, and with opaque colors.

what i meant by icons, colors, etc, is: the Mandrake control center
icons, for example...

you see, when i said mandrake needs a graphic redesign, i really
meant mandrake. not KDE, Gnome, or any other product. just the 
looks of Mandrakesoft's products.

Heh heh.  This little Oliver would like

Sony camcorder drivers
LyX 2.0
Wine 1.0
A version of OpenOffice that loads in under a minute
Turkish spellchecker

... and so on.  But of course these are up to the to the program 
developers, not Mandrake.  On the whole, I think Mandrake do a fairly 
good job of selecting apps which balance usefulness and stability.  I 
don't want bleeding-edge stuff when I'm installing my system - I'll 
download those later at my own risk.  Similarly,  I don't want a load of 
themes, as a theme can be downloaded quickly, and I don't want them 
cluttering up my installation.

As for flash and winex, these are proprietary or semi-proprietary 
programs that should be in the Powerpack but not the basic CD.  The same 
would go for proprietary drivers.  I don't mind sullying my system with 
the odd bit of proprietary software (e.g. I use nvidia's drivers) but I 
agree with the current policy of quarantining them - some people are 
fanatical about this.

One idea I did think was good was a separate games CD.  There are now a 
lot of Linux games around.  Most of them are dissappointing, not so much 
through any fault of the developers, but because these days producing a 
decent game takes a lot of people and a lot of money (I once wrote a 
game for the Atari ZX81; OK, it sucked even by ZX81 standards, but the 
point is that if I'd been a better progammer and spent months rather 
than days, I could have produced a market leader - that isn't true 
now*).  Put the games on a separate CD, then we can spend installation 
time on the serious stuff, then browse the games at our leisure.

Sir Robin

* There are of course honourable exceptions (Nethack Falcon's Eye 
springs to mind, plus a few nostaligic arcade games, but again the key 
word is nostalgia).  Speaking of which, I'd pay any money for a Linux 
clone of Elite - not the yucky 16-colour DOS versions you can get from 
places like Abandonware, but the clean, aesthetic, wireframe graphics 
 BBC Micro version.  That's the only game I've played long enough to 
start hallucinating.

well, i do think they need a redesign.. ( icons, colors, images
simply look "old" ) but hey, they are busy trying to make 
it work, and they normally accomplish that. the day they
can't make it work, they will try to make it look pretty. ( a la M$ ;o)

they probably have a very little or no graphics design division..?

kde/gnome themes? .. uhmmm nah it would mean valuable CD space that
we're better off using for useful apps.. adding collections of themes
for every WM or for Xmms is simply a waste of space, since everyone is
going to like only one or a few of them and feel the rest shouldn't be there.


an advanced control center.. this might be a good idea.. but add options
for what? i think it's complete enough...

preinstalled flash plugin -- definitely.

MPlayer.. would be nice, although it's claimed that a precompiled
package will never perform as well as an install from tarball..


personally, i have nothing to ask of them. all of my hardware works, 
95% of the programs i need are in the download CD's ( too bad i can't
afford the boxed sets ) so.. i'll just let them surprise me.

[newbie] Mandrake 9.0 wishlist :-)

2002-06-13 Thread Linux Maniac


I wonder what you'd like to implemented in the 9.0 release. My 
wishlist is in short:

- a script for installing the nvidia drivers OR a deal with nvidia to 
provide them preinstalled in MDK 9.0
- Hungarian spell checkers
- Opera 6.x
- Mldonkey
- Latest gtk-gnutella
- Themable graphical boot
- More KDE/Gnome themes
- Support for Mustek ScanMagic 1200 (paralell)
- Mozilla 1.1
- Mplayer
- An advanced control center with more advanced options
- winex and crossover office
- preinstalled flash plugin
- Maybe a gamer's extension 4th CD so on the first 3 CD there would be 
only serious programs and the games of kde/gnome
- A more discrete and professional Mandrake look (icons, bootup, etc.)
-Maybe a change of logo?
