after some days he asked me how he could remove all the branding from it because he said it looked exactly like the branded firmwares of the cellphones that operator sell (their logo everywhere, functions crippled etc..) if distros are getting really a bad image like the cellphone operators (and is reeeally a bad rep:) there is really something wrong, because they don't deserve it i hope they understand they are nearly committing suicide with this, because mandriva and opensuse are pretty solid distributions otherwise Cheers, Marco Martin > > > _______________________________________________ > Plasma-devel mailing list > Plasma-devel@kde.org > https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/plasma-devel _______________________________________________ Plasma-devel mailing list Plasma-devel@kde.org https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/plasma-devel
