ok, but then lets keep the iso as it is with lets say the name slitaz-vesa.iso, because its stupid for those who know, how it works and who have to install a driver which is not on the iso.
I mean, I dont want to contradict you, but with the fbdev driver I got a picture on all my computers - ok, if I dont know my vesa number in a wrong resolution, but still a picture where I can easy run tazx and edit my xorg.conf and restart X I think we should keep the spirit of slitaz, but for saving our and the users time and nerves we should think, to provide userfriendly flavors - like a full X-flavor with all video drivers on board. Maybe this flavor has more goodies, like UMTS support and preinstalled cups and system-config-printer http://cyberelk.net/tim/software/system-config-printer/ it will have then 60 MB, but who cares on a computer with 2 Gigs of Ram just an idea Thomas Am Wed, 29 Feb 2012 16:19:58 +0100 schrieb Christophe Lincoln <[email protected]>: > > > Hi all, > > Hi, > > > just a question - would it be better to test RC2 one week just > > intern, before it is anounced on the website? > > No we need the announcement buzz to catch as many users as possible. > From our mirror (we dont have stats for others) 4.0-RC1 have been > downloaded 3871 time ;.) > > > and then perhaps a bug page for RC2 in doc, just to avoid double > > posts and answers in the forum? > > Hope RC2 will have less bugs than RC1, mainly Xorg, TazPanel login and > installer. > > > I can test Geode, Via C3, Via Eden (Christophe did you change > > something?), PII, PIII with intel grafic, Centrino with Radeon + > > Tridend grafik, Athlon XP with NV7050 > > I have done some ISO and testing with the fbdev driver but not > concluante at all.
