Ok, maybe its because I started with kde 3.5 a few years ago but kde was |
| 12 |
never so unstable as with |

No, because I can't use randr as randr doesn't supports my setup at all. |
| 21 |
I had to deactivate randr-support in catalyst-drivers to get it working. |
| 22 |
With randr only stupid bigscreen is possible. This is the reason why I |
| 23 |
still stick with the closed driver, the open ones only support xrandr. |

Yes I know. But then many things aren't useable anymore because scaling |
| 29 |
of the icons freaks out here if it gets to small. |

| 33 |
|
| 34 |
k3b is one of the programms that is rather complete but still in late |
| 35 |
alpha state. Even the ebuild has alpha in its name. And amarok is |
| 36 |
missing so much. |
| 37 |
|
| 38 |
1) the collection-scanner is broken. Only approx. 400 songs are added to |
| 39 |
the collection. I have over 10000 songs on my pc. |
| 40 |
|
| 41 |
2) Support for generic mp3-players doesn't exist or needs workarounds |
| 42 |
(in live-builds atm) |
| 43 |
|
| 44 |
3) Not really a mising feature but amarok 2 looks like crap. I like the |
| 45 |
way 1.4 looks and hate that amarok 2 forces me to learn everything new. |
| 46 |
But forcing users to learn new ways to do old things its all that is |
| 47 |
kde4. I hate it if i get forced to do something. |

Maybe because people like it the way it is. I switched to linux because |
| 57 |
I really like the freedom to choose what I want to do with my computer. |
| 58 |
But more and more linux becomes like windows in the way that it forces |
| 59 |
the user to adapt to the system. Yes I can switch the DE if i dislike |
| 60 |
kde4 but in a few month or maybe a year there is no way around randr and |
| 61 |
then I have to stick with old kernel, old driver and old X or be forced |
| 62 |
to adapt to the way some people think whats best for all of us. |
