Its gross limitations are rapidly coming to light.
What limitations would those be?
It is highly deficient in Gnome offerings (eg gedit & gftp absent),
and no obvious way of starting Gnome at all (although many libraries are
present).
and
the killer in this case might be Grub itself.
- my preferred usage, but Not-An-Option during install setup. Bah!
I am led to believe thats because Xandros target audience isnt gnome
users but more kde "new" to linux users.
No disagreement there (see below).
Xandros Review: A slick but troublesome (for tweaking; commercial)
non-standard distro. Wonderful for newbies, excellent multimedia. - Give
it to your windos friends, with a very broad smile. :-) Wifi connects
automatically, shares and all. Fun & easy to play with. Wizards
everywhere. All sound works. My favourite KDE base thus far. ****
But why I wouldn't recommend it is mainly because the segfault rate
seems reminiscent of the first KDE I ever used (Mandrake 8.2 iirc). Are
most Users putting up with those? - I won't.
