IMHO there are many services they Fedora has enabled by default which are relatively useless for most users. The whole rpc/nfs gang of services, sendmail - Why? I may be wrong, but I doubt that most of our users want to be running NFS and mail servers on a default install. Besides that, running Bluetooth on a machine without Bluetooth-capable hardware is a complete waste of resources. A simple example: [X] Laptop services [ ] Bluetooth - Bluetooth connectivity services [X] NetworkManager - Easy management of network connections [ ] Avahi - Zeroconf network discovery [ ] NFS - File sharing [ ] sendmail - Mail server [ ] SMB - Samba (Windows) file and printer sharing [ ] SSH - Remote shell Laptop Services would enable cpuspeed and apmd, as desktop machines don't really *need* those services. The rest can be enabled as the user sees fit. Stewart -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
