I'd like
to undergo an effort to cleanup and
reorganize all of our kcm modules. Over time there have been
features added which are placed in the wrong section, other
times things have been done inefficiently or made to be
overly complicated.
I am going to open an etherpad for this. I would
also like any users/developers to respond to this email with
anything they find to be weird/out of place.
I'll start: the Kicker configure screen,
underneath appearance has an "advanced options"
button. There is nothing advanced about these options and it
should be more clearly organized.
Okay, here are some conversation starters:
... * Why in System Administration is there is a
configuration option for LILO
but not for GRUB? Both should be supported.

Hi everybody
I had a look here: etherpad.trinitydesktop.org/40. I agree with
Darrell: "Both should be supported". <troll> In my mind, Lilo is for
bootstrap loaders what Trinity is for Windows managers: the latest versions
Grub2 and KDE4/gnome3 do not keep their promises. The universal usability
targeted by Grub may be reached today, but 99.999% of the standard PC +
Linux/Windows users dont care about that. I fill like having paid something
for that, like lost of time with re-intallation, for instance, especially
for problems of incompatibility between GRUB 1 and GRUB2. These systems "of
the future" are finaly good but for TESTs purpose only...</troll> So, I am
happy to see on http://lilo.alioth.debian.org/ that the project restarted
in June 2010. I will use LILO if its support is available at the moment I
will "definitively" install Trinity!
Cheers
Patrick
NB: Not directly related to Trinity, but thinking about this "final"
installation, another concern is the support for ReiserFS. This file system
seems being abandoned for EXT4 and is sometimes simply ignored by
distributions at the time of installation. This will likely cause me
problems...
