im actually fiddling with it now. so far i have seen nothing missing at all, |
2 |
and it has included not just x but a number of applications. |
3 |
|
4 |
It is very much a full linux installation with office and internet basics all |
5 |
running. much like gentoo deciding to show up knoppix for their install cd. |
6 |
|
7 |
i think this is a great ide agiving you a full workstation that you can deal |
8 |
with even if it doesnt have "EVERYTHNING" you even need. it has enough to keep |
9 |
you functional. while you build your main system or rebuild your main system. |
10 |
|
11 |
very nicely done devteam very nice. |
12 |
|
13 |
although a little bit of prettyness would be on the oputput tab to add some |
14 |
scrollbars. took me a few min to realis i could just click in the box and roam |
15 |
about with my keyboard to watch what its doing. |
