The Future of Fedora

[Alexey Eremenko]

Well. Let me rethink, and process your responses.

The most interesting ones came from:

Jesse Keating

-and-

Rui Miguel Seabra

 

However, I misagree with on many items.OS MUST be easy.

One man even wrote, that Linux must not, because it's for Professionals.

He made a GREAT mistake, because me and my father are Pro's and running WindowsXP,

and we see that a comfortable OS saves time. (while linux spends a lot of it on fight vs. the OS)

 

Questions by: Rui Miguel Seabra

Well, almost full install, and YES I run GUI, because otherwise Linux is useless.

Also I run all the default FC1 services. (including a DHCP client.)

I don't know any commands to enter for a command line.

I see you understand nothing in multi button mice.

Buttons 1,2,3 (left, right, scroll button) have standard function.

All other buttons are programmable. (4 and 5)

And YES, In the future I plan to use Logitech 8-button mouse.

They *can* have the following commands: (this list isn't full)

-Close -Copy -Ctrl -Cut -Delete -Explore -Help -Refresh -Find -Maximize -Minimize -Paste 

-Print screen -Redo -Run -Select All -Show/Hide desktop -Start -Tab -Undo

 

Again. I want to think a little more before I return to this discussions.

Thanks everyone for responses. (I like to have some feedbacks)
