You should really check out SuSE if this is your goal. Most software is included, including Sylpheed 0.8.10claws72, and almost everyhing you need as a default install. Once you install, you can export a package listing and duplicate that install the next time as well.
SuSE has renewed my hopes in Desktop Linux. 8.2 professional is the best distro I've seen yet. If you are interested in the great looking and feeling KDE, you want SuSE 8.2, which focusses on KDE (whereas RH focusses on Gnome) and the default SuSE theme is Keramik, which is gorgeous (and doesn't break KDE like RH does) $0.02 ching On Tue, 17 Jun 2003 13:24:02 +0200 Roger Oberholtzer <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > On Tue, 17 Jun 2003 04:36:48 -0600 > Myles Green <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > On Tue, 2003-06-17 at 04:13, Roger Oberholtzer wrote: > > > I remember seeing that redhat did some wild integration of KDE and Gnome > > > in their latest release.
