I know you guys are eager for this new release - as I am, but let's keep it positive. This forum is generally one of the most positive, well mannered and helpful that I've been on.Klaus is a liar!!!!
Klaus, aren't you? Prove it!!!
Knoppix is cool, so lets keep the high standard and not bring it down by slagging these guys who invented the stuff that we all enjoy.
Klaus said, that it will be ready in few days.. now - few weeks.. what's next? Few months????!!!
Klaus, I suggest you keep your promises. Micro$oft cheat all the time, so I've expected something different from YOU!!!
If I kill somebody, I'll be a killer. So, I think Klaus is a liar. Let him prove I'm wrong! Klaus, put tha thing on da servers!!!
Hey,
Bill Gates can afford to pay an army of developers.
Let's try to keep Klaus sweet.
No point in getting Klaus' hackles up.
We don't want him to say "Stuff yous all, you can bloody well wait."
Two weeks is enough time to build Knoppix 4.0, I think.
Sorry, I'm a bit angry. Forgive me.
I agree! Let's keep this positive.
What Klaus and this group have achieved is amazing.
If you want a fair comparison of delivery times -- take a look at some other groups.
The Debian group has just announced that the Sarge release won't be available anytime in 2004.
I was a long time Red Hat (and RHN) user -- over 9 years. Linux package updates and new packages would not be included in a RH distribution for over a year. Currently, they are back porting features to the 2.4 kernel instead of moving to 2.6 kernel.
Microsoft's Longhorn has slipped so many times that competitors are calling it LATEhorn.
I use the Knoppix CD to demo Linux to those afraid of an install. I also use the Knoppix CD to boot, then knx-hdinstall.
Should there be a vote after a list of packages for the chopping block have been suggested?
I appreciate Klaus and company allowing us to comment and critique from the sidelines like a Sunday afternoon armchair quarterback.
I also appreciate his directions on how to build your own distribution.

Whoa there bud!! Angry? What in the world for?? Because someone is a tiny bit late in GIVING you a completely free technical product?? Ugh!
I'm still looking for somewhere to donate to the knoppix crew. I was told I should support Knoppix by supporting Debian. Gotta tell you tho - I'm not nearly as impressed with Debian developers as I am with the Knoppix crew. These people deserve all the support we can put together......

Exactly!!!! Knoppix is the greatest, every release is more polished than the previous. That's why there are about 40 different flavors of Knoppix out there waiting for the next release, so they can release their new versions
Knoppix needs a Pay-Pal donate button on the site!! I'd Give, I'm sure many others would also.
Robert
Same here. Fabian, could you propose this off-line to Klaus ?
Or maybe someone else here who is already subscribed to debian-knoppix ? (OK, I admit,I'm lazy)
You definitively must have meant "frustrated". Don't worry, a lot of us feel frustrated (some more, some less). Just keep it cool and civil.
You do know the a good majority of the packages on the CD and almost all of the bandwidth after install comes from Debian right??
