I never watched them. And I think many people also don't watch them cause they first want to try if they find everything without help. 10 mb more to download makes a really long time with a slow Internet connection. But anyway, we should make these tutorials: if the others vote for including them, we should include them - but I could also imagine a special startpage for chromium that has a big button new to lubuntu? and links to these tutorials, some wikis and so on. Like that, everyone could decide whether to use the help. Best regards, Jo. Here a few new screencasts of Lubuntu showing some of the default apps in Lubuntu.

Re: [Lubuntu-desktop] Lubuntu Screencasts
Hi, very nice videos. I was thinking about the inclusion of videos in the distro. However, this contradicts with the goal of keeping the distro small. Would it be an alternative to offer a separate (optional) package with support videos for download through the repository as well as via the site? What do you think? - Mario On Wed, Mar 31, 2010 at 4:32 AM, Julien Lavergne gi...@ubuntu.com wrote: Le mardi 30 mars 2010 à 20:40 +0200, Leszek Lesner a écrit : Here a few new screencasts of Lubuntu showing some of the default apps in Lubuntu.

Re: [Lubuntu-desktop] Lubuntu Screencasts
A link on the desktop should be enough. Please don't include this in the distro. The space should be left for language supports IMO. So people can get a fully translated desktop after installation. This is very important. If some language supports are not installed, the user will get English user interface after installation. However, those who need the language support most are the one who don't understand English. If they don't understand English, how can they know how to get network configured, get online, and install the remaining language support via the tools with English UI? Since we have much space, I'd suggest include all language support given they are not too big. Of course, we don't need language files of gnome. So some dependencies might need to be changed.

Re: [Lubuntu-desktop] Lubuntu Screencasts
Good idea. It could also be host in lubuntu.net (if we have the space) and adding a bookmark in the browser to link to them.
