kde task install - call for testers.



Hi,

If you're using KDE and wants to help polish the kde task, please
download the current weekly snapshot of the installer[0] and after cd
boots, when you see the debian logo type:

install tasksel/first=kde-desktop

or:

install tasksel/first=kde-desktop

Joey told me that tasksel/first will be aliased to 'tasks' in d-i RC1
as i've suggested in -user some time ago.

After booting into your new kde system, please check what's missing.
Common questions that came to the mind:

- Is there IM software installed ? (eg: kopete?)
- Is there multimedia player and support for it into the konqueror browser ?
- Graphical package manager works well ?
- CD/DVD burn works well ?
- Network Manager ? (It was just added, hopefully will be in the next
week snapshot)

I'm sure that if you're able to install the gnome desktop environment
too and compare you will see some packages missing in the kde task
yet. Let me know.

ps: xfce-desktop task is in svn, hope to see you in Etch. ;)
