Explantion of KDE and Gnome
Last modified: 2006-08-08 11:32:24 UTC
During the installation people can choose between KDE and Gnome can be done. A new user could be confused. It could be said what the best choise is if in doubt and/or a screenshot with menu open could be shown. This would make it easier for new users to pick what they want.
i'm not sure if this is already the final layout/text set as enhancement. michael/adrian: maybe you can comment on that?
a screenshot thumbnail is anyway mostly only showing the background picture. A text explaining the difference will create a flamewar, I am sure ...
I think its important to add the browser firefox to the kde explantion! IMHO it's the actually description more unfair.
IMHO here is a better text: KDE is a powerful and intuitive desktop environment that uses Kontact as its mailer and Firefox as its browser and Konqueror as its filemanager and web browser together.
I agree. An explanation should be available during install. It should read something about KDE's eye-candy, Gnome's usability and some other stuff that we can all agree about.
Let's make this change for the KDE (see #4) text. Michael, do you agree?
KDE is a powerful and intuitive desktop environment that uses Kontact as its mailer, Konqueror as its file manager, and offers both Firefox and Konqueror as its Web browser. -- I think something like the above would be better.
Used Rebecca's text, done in SVN.
