  Virtualization: Windows and SLED 10         


Author: David Fumento
Date: Nov 28, 2006 15:11

I currently have a dual boot XP Pro, SLED 10 on my Thinkpad. On my new
Thinkpad, in addition to dual boot, I would like to use the virtualization
so that I can run the Linux without having to dual boot. I have read some
things on-line but was wondering.
1. Use the Windows Virtualization solutions (VPC 2007 beta)?
2. Use the Linux Virtualization solution?

Any other hints, such as the X client to use from Windows into Linux?

TIA

I downloaded the SLED 10 DVD iso about a month ago. Do they update this
basic DVD with the updates (i.e. should I re-download it as it is updated)
or not?

  Swedish translation of Novell OpenOffice for SLED10?

Hi!

I just downloaded and installed SLED10. The OpenOffice shipped with it
lacks a swedish translation (and there's no translation package for
swedish available in Yast).

I heard a rumour that there's an update of this Openoffice version
that includes a swedish translation. Where can I find it?

Thanks,
\EF

  C++ Compiler and KDE Interface in Root         


Author: inquiry2006
Date: Nov 12, 2006 13:22

I downloaded SLED 10.1 64 bit DVD last week and did not experience any
compatibility issues with the HP 6320 notebook, which has been certified
for Linux by HP. Despite having installed the GNU C++ compiler, it did not
show up under either Gnome or KDE. I checked twice under the software
installation option to ensure that the GNU compiler had been installed. I
switched to KDE in user mode, and as before, the development category was
missing under user and root access.

Since I much prefer KDE to the Gnome interface, I would also like to switch
the root access to that interface. Although I was able to switch to KDE for
the user mode, root remains Gnome.

I also very much prefer the look and feel of SuSE 9.2 Professional to SLED.
SLED, especially in Gnome, is far too simplistic for my taste. I suspect
that SLED is geared to less computer literate business users, however, I
recommend that some thought be given to a variant more suitable for more
computer literate users.
