User Feedback :: 10 things I do not like about DSL
yep,
in order to find some minor flaws in DSL you oughta go trivial.
the functionality they stuffed into 50 megs is simply awesome.
yet, as spiderman's uncle woudl say, with greater power comes greater responsability.
besides being a great tool for linux users, DSL can be a mayor tool in bringing more and more people to try and love linux right away.
it's flexible, fairly complete, fast and easy on small boxes and works mostly out of the box.
my point is, shallow as it might seem, appearance has an impact on new users and a few bytes could be optimized.
of course. you can mold and configure DSL into anything you want it to be, but I'm thinking about total newbies.
now, I'd like to see what "top 10 -" you guys can come up with.
It aint easy.
wtf? was I the only one who missess screen then?
Apparently. Maybe if you let us know what it is, what it does, just WHY it's such an obvious ommission, maybe john&co will look into it, or someone may make an extension.
I've never seen screen on any of the other (admittedly few) live distros I've used (or HD-install, for that matter). Hadn't even heard of it.
Enlighten everyone, and we may all be using screen shortly? 
Screen FWIW I don't use it either

I totally agree with flying tuxman
the look is important to newbies. this does not mean that it must look like win98 or so... it just means that a more colorfull look, with better icons may help. I know we have space issues to solve to do so..and also that this look is the best for low-resources pc.
but the first look has a very important impact..to spread the linux revolution..
(may the force be with you, young yedies..)
(as for preferences, i'm on the mac-osx-like side)
