I have not been able to download a working client that includes the
wpokg.js. I have tried to download the new 1.2.1 client, the previous
versions do not seem to download either, Any idea?

Thank you,

The software I'm talking about is
http://www2.smarttech.com/st/en-US/Support/Downloads/SBS/NBSv10WinEval.h
tm
The installation instructions say "3. Install Notebook software 10." and
"4.
Install Notebook software 10 drivers."

I'm not sure if the "Notebook software 10" will refuse to work if
"Notebook
software 10 drivers" arent installed and I cannot really test this at
the
moment either since I dont have the needed hardware at hand.

> This looks like both software packages are very closely coupled. Why
not simply creating a package which first runs the commands to install
software (A) and then installs software (B)?

I dont want to create packages that install two or more softwares at
once.
Especially since the "Notebook software 10 driver" can be used without
the
"Notebook software 10".


Another situation where a chained installation would be handy are
extension for
Firefox, updates for Microsoft Office, etc etc ...
