    itman007:
    I'm sure that "your everyday needed apps" not the same of mine...anyway...
    How does your Knoppixslim differs from the CD/DVD configuration? You don't tell us nothing what we want to know !
    Why I have to try something I do not know? Really, why should I ?
    Download about 1GB of "do not know what" is not for me (even for the others, I saw) a concept to consider

    I see your concerns I really never looked at it that way. For me the best thing about it is the removal of non everyday or normal user programs. I have added Google Chrome with all the plugins and add on so that you can browse the internet without issues with video and audio and such. Ive upgraded LibreOffice to the latest version. Added the default print value from LOffice to 8x11 for us US users rather than A4. Ive added an VM Ware view client for mobile users so those whom need can use. Updated Konq to latest version. I feel its just a more ready to use Knoppix for internet users than Knoppix as is.

    Greetings, itman007.

    I find kn-what useful, but that would only be a start here, IMO.

    The following might give you some perspective on advertising your distro.
    You have a lot of competition, more than just Knoppix.

    Competition isnt my concern here. We are an K12 educational institution. We use this remasterd Knoppix to run our labs. The students come up with ideas to add to the iso in which works well for their environment. They just wanted to make it available for public use so that maybe in return they can make custom iso's for someone elses need/request in hopes of getting donations to the technology class/room here in return but mostly as bragging rights to say we made that.

    I have made some progress on this. This is focused on US English users with needed applications for web browsing, file browsing and document handling. The package manger looks for US repos. You may email me if you want to look at the site. I will not post the url here. timburks@franklin.k12.al.us or private message me here.
