DSL Ideas and Suggestions :: Things to add to DSL...



I love using DSL, I use it everyday, everywhere... It's even on my Xbox! But there are somethings that I think should be in DSL without expecting too much... Just my opinion...

1. A BitTorrent Client
2. We should all start collecting drivers to go with WiFi cards for ndiswrapper to go with DSL. Then add a little auto config script to work with ndiswrapper and netcardconfig. Wireless compatability is one things a million ppl complain about with Linux...
3. Permanent Home Directory. Like the full blown Knoppix distro, so we can just throw program files in a usb drive and save settings also. Like startup stuff.
4. Ability to make a swap file or storage for DSL on windows partition maybe?
5. Refined/more detail user guide with the cd so ppl don't have to hop from one computer to the next to figure things out.

Well I had a bunch of ideas in my head but I'll bring them up later. If i weren't such a Linux newb I'd find a way to help, but I'm proficiant in everything but Linux and programming haha

Let me know if i can help!
1. Bit torrent: Suggest a tiny one.

2. Don't think we can/should try to distribute Window's Drivers.
   But a discussion of working ones in the forum would be good.

3. We already have a persistent home and/or opt.
   Use boot option of home=hda3 and it will be automatically setup.
   Same for opt, if so desired. Personally I only use the home option.

4, Swap file option is on the system menu.

5. A user's guide would be very nice. I think that was the planned purpose of the Wiki. It is difficult to keep up to date, as DSL has gone through so many changes.
