But is there any plan to improve Adept. It is no where near Synaptic. It doesn't display several apt-get confirmation messages, slower at searching package index, lacks facility to remove unnecessary packages which were installed along with others which have been removed now. * absolutely great, nice ideas, i am really keen on trying the kopete-flashlight ;-) -- Malvin * best kubuntu to date! wow! can't wait to get my hands on the final release though that's still a couple of months away :-) one issue though - I downloaded alpha 1 originally and kept updating (sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade) the tasty menu never showed up. In the end people upgrading from gutsy might experience the same issue or maybe it's just me that ran into it ... but that's a minor "problem"! -- ANDREA * Just doing it live with Alpha 2. It works on this computer unlike anything later than Edgy (thanks to TTY SATA/IDE etc. problem)! The updated window decoration looks good, better than Gutsy's. I can"t see the tasty menu either? It needs to be enabled somewhere? But so far very good, 2nd Alpha, better than I expected! But with the bug gone (hopefully and apparently) that Feisty and Gutsy has is the greatest news! -- ToniHelenius <> * I tried the Live CD, and in the K menu / Lost & Found there are a lot of applications: {{http://www.primadanoi.it/images/CANCELLAMI/lost_and_found.png}} and if I open Kcontrol, the applications list is empty! --francesko * I let my parents install Hardy Alpha2 from LiveCD on our old laptop and jot down the most important obstacles/confusions: * During the installation we formatted the complete disk, and (because it is still a running LiveCD) a popup appeared over all windows "new media found" - no one knows what to do there. * We had no internet connection during installation, so a message came up "Cannot access http://security.ubuntu.com", and as a result ALL package sources where commented in /etc/apt/sources.list * At the end of install process one is asked to restart the computer, but there is only an Okay button. An additonal restart button would be great * The whole partitioning menu was a bit confusing, even I expected sth different behind the various options and had to try&error * The whole installation process needs a bit more explanation, like "what do we want to do here (like time zone, partioning) and why) * language selection & installation is tricky in general. I discovered that nice language-selector-qt tool, but it is nowhere in the K-Menu, and only magic knows why the exec is called qt-language-selector. * calling "kcontrol" directly doesn't work! * I personally don't like the standard empty folders Music/Pictures/templates/... but I guess there already was a big discussion on that :-) * Well, that's all! Everything else works fine till now. Great job as always, thx guys! Hope these comments helped someone -- AlphaBlue52 Some notes from VeGeek: 1. It will be better to add KVpnc - not all users can configure VPN by hand. Or try to do something with Network Manager. 2. Oh, it isn`t possible to configure routes in System Settings, it`s simple to configure them in /etc/network/interfaces, but not all users can do it. 3. GUIDance`s DisplayConfig still sucks... It will be better to replace it with hm... KXgenerator. I also noticed all the programs in Lost & Found - and in fact, they were there before the install - they were present on the LiveCD. Couple of other points: 1. During the install it asked me if I wanted to mount the newly formatted hard drive. I clicked no and it finished the install just fine. I never noticed any offer to mount before and I assume it's wrong. 2. When I first logged in, the adept-updater wanted to download and install a bunch of packages. It downloaded them but wouldn't install (it gave a message that installing would break packages). When I tried an apt-get upgrade from the command line, it gave this error: E: Internal Error, Could not perform immediate configuration (2) on libstdc++6 To get it to install I had to do sudo apt-get install libstdc++6 which worked, and then the sudo apt-get upgrade worked after that. 3. I don't know if this is a problem or not, but it sounds like it should eventually be fixed.. I saw this during the upgrade: Preparing to replace nvidia-kernel-common 20051028+1ubuntu7 (using .../nvidia-kernel-common_20051028+1ubuntu8_all.deb) ... ************************************************************************ * * The update-modules command is deprecated and should not be used! * ************************************************************************ Unpacking replacement nvidia-kernel-common ... ************************************************************************ * * The update-modules command is deprecated and should not be used! * ************************************************************************ All in all, nice work.
