Printing and fonts are the big deals. I haven't encountered the slowness in tables, and have never used ODBC. I would check all displays to make sure the fonts fit at different size displays, check revPrintField to make sure it works (it does not for me), check print card, which used to print at different sizes depending on the resolution of the display, so that it did one thing on a 17 inch display and another on a 19 inch one. It is probably wise to restrict oneself to the fonts that come with all distributions.
Install the app itself in /opt, but dont put the data files there, they should go in in /home/userx/myapp, and the preferences in /home/userx/.myapp. Also, check with kde as well as gnome. And if they may use different distributions, check with one debian derivative, one slackware derivative and one Red Hat derivative. The most accessible end user distributions for new users are Mandriva One Gnome and PCLinuxOS, which comes with an intelligently done version of kde and has the Mandriva control center. If you want something smaller lighter and faster, either Vector or Salix. Still lighter, Puppy. If you want turnkey, sort of embedded system style, and totally minimalist, Slitaz. If you want minimalist userland in a full featured distro, use openbox or fluxbox as the window manager in any distro. You can get the effect of a turnkey one app appliance that way if you arrange autostart. I have not found a distribution too minimalist for Rev to run on. -- View this message in context: http://runtime-revolution.278305.n4.nabble.com/Linux-Tao-tp2552556p2654556.html Sent from the Revolution - User mailing list archive at Nabble.com. _______________________________________________ use-revolution mailing list use-revolution@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution
