Hi! I've been using linux since '03 and have experimented with various distributions. I noticed that very few distros have a single control center for EVERYTHING (Xandros). I think that is what fedora/redhat could use. I know that as a new user, running into GNOME control center (gnome 2.4), KDE control center, AND the system's control center (like Yast on suse or mandrakeconf on Mandrake/Mandriva) can be very confusing. Would there be any way to incorporate all of the desktop (kde/gnome) config and all of the system-config-* stuff from redhat? Xandros does a good job putting it all under the kde control center as modules, and Suse tries (at least under 9.x) with yast directory. With fedora/redhat, though, there are the different things under the 'Administration' menu. As a former Windoze user, having a single control center for display stuff and admin stuff is ideal. Any thoughts on the subject? -Steven
I do not see the difference between the Control panel in Windows and the Administration menu in gnome. Of cause some of the individual administration applications could be improved, but I still do not see the principal difference. -- Trond Danielsen
